Campout for Carolina tickets brings back tradition on a day over winter break

Amber KenneyDeputy News Editor

Registration for the annual Cam-pout for tickets for the UNC-Chapel Hill basketball game opens tomorrow with a controversial date and new events planned.

Arialle Crabtree, a sophomore in College of Agriculture and Life Sci-ences and the chair of the campus community committee of Student Senate, said the Campout will return to its roots by being held in front of Reynolds Coliseum.

“Students were proud of the tradi-tion of camping out in front of Reyn-olds, and we want to re-establish its glory,” she said.

Crabtree said Student Government joined with the Union Activities Board and Campus Recreation to make this year’s event something to remember.

According to Crabtree, registered campers will get free food and be able to participate in many games and ac-tivities, including a basketball tourna-

ment and corn-hole. There will also be an Ugliest UNC

Fan contest with all proceeds going to the Kay Yow Memorial Fund, she said.

“This is a great event that lets stu-dent have fun while supporting N.C. State and connecting with other stu-dents,” she said.

Kelli Rogers, a senior in political science and student senate president, is excited about this year’s Campout.

“It is going to be bigger and better then ever,” she said. “We are bringing it back to its historical roots and to the heart of N.C. State basketball.”

Adam Rodgers, a sophomore in First Year College, expressed concern about the location.

“It’s a cool idea, but not that many tents can fit out there,” he said.

Crabtree is not worried about the space, but the date the Campout is being held has raised some questions.

According to Crabtree, there was a survey advertised through Facebook and list-serves asked students to pick the best date between two. The final date chosen was Jan. 9, but classes do not start for second semester until Jan. 11.

Fraternity’s first philanthropic event since return to campus will benefit Wounded Warriors

Caroline BarfieldStaff Writer

Today Kappa Alpha Order will host its first philanthropic event since its return to campus as members will be selling “Hot Dogs for Heroes” in the Brickyard from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Matt Korff, a sophomore in business administration, said KA chose to hold this event for many reasons, one being its strong connection with the armed forces.

“ K A h a s strong ties to the military so we feel honored to donate the proceeds to vet-erans,” he said. “We have an agreement with some military schools t hat , when they grad-uate, we offer them bids and init iate them right away. We do this because it is illegal for soldiers to be in a fraternal organization.”

Stephen Kouba, a junior in politi-cal science and vice president of KA, said the chapter decided to host the hot dog lunch as the fraternity’s first philanthropic event for many reasons.

“We recently received our pro-visional charter status back a few weeks ago and this seemed very fit-ting to honor our veterans as our first philanthropy event,” Kouba said. “We want to show our support for veterans and we feel that this is one of the best ways that we can do it. We are hum-bled and honored by the opportunity to hold this event and we look forward to generating positive support for our

veterans and we are excited about the opportunity to give back as much as we can.”

He also said the fraternity has sev-eral members who are a part of the armed forces.

“We have members of our fraternity that have served in the armed forces but that is not the sole reason that we are holding this event,” he said. “It is important to raise awareness and sup-port for our veterans and there is not a better day to do it than Veterans day.”

Korff said KA has an appreciation so deep they plan to hold this event every year in honor of the veterans.

“KA appreciates the work the vet-erans have put in to protect us from harm. The respect we have for vet-erans is tremen-dous,” Korff said. “We want every-one, not only stu-dents, to know that KA supports our veterans. We plan to do this event ev-ery year in honor of them.”

T h e m o n e y raised will go to the Wounded War-riors Project as well as Honor Flight.

According to Kouba, the mission of the Wounded Warriors Project is to raise awareness and enlist the public’s aid for the needs of severely injured service men and women. Honor Flight takes veterans to visit their respective memorials in Washington, D.C. They also take any veterans, giving special consideration to veterans that have some kind of terminal illness, to visit the memorial erected in their honor.

Tyler Reber, a sophomore in parks, recreation and management said the group has high hopes for its success.

“We’re hoping for a good turnout, but we really hope we sell out of hot dogs,” Reber said.

Charity basketball tournament to raise donations for those in need

Siva Ramesh Staff Writer

On Thursday, at 7 p.m. in Carmi-chael Gymnasium, the N.C. State chapter of Kappa Alpha Psi, along with over 27 other organizations, will hold a charity basketball tournament.

Called the Krimson and Kreme Hoopin’ for Hunger Basketball Tour-nament, its purpose is to raise money and donations of canned goods for Helping Hands Mission, a local char-ity, as part of their Thanksgiving food drive.

As part of a tradition within Kappa Alpha Psi, “Crimson” and “Crème” are spelled with Ks.

“It’s a tradition in our frat to spell everything with Ks,” said Tre Mc-Queen, a senior in marketing and a co-organizer of the event.

McQueen said the primary purpose of the event was to not only benefit the University, but to also help the local community, particularly those people who are less fortunate than others.

“We decided to have an event on campus to raise money and food for families who are a little bit less fortu-nate,” McQueen said.

McQueen helped to organize the event with his brother, Chaz Mc-Queen, a junior in education, Regi-nald Parks, a junior in sports manage-ment and Colton Palmer, a junior in communications.

“We were looking for something that we could do. We’re a fraternity, and as a fraternity, we have to do dif-ferent events for standards.” McQueen said.

Although the idea was conceived just a month ago, the event has been well organized and planned.

Parks said the process of organizing the event took about a month.

“We kind of got everything together, made sure Carmichael [Gymnasium] was on board for it. We’ve been con-tacting all the organizations on cam-pus to see who’d be willing to give to this cause. We contacted the [Student Media Association] and WRAL to get everybody on board who would be willing to give to the Thanksgiving Day initiative,” Parks said

According to McQueen, other groups have joined in support of the tournament, including fraternities from area universities.

“We’ve got Ravenscroft School. We’ve got Delta Sigma Theta from UNC. We’ve got a couple of our broth-ers from different chapters in the area,

like the Delta Gamma chapter of Kappa Alpha Psi [from] Shaw Uni-versity, the Gamma Omega chap-ter from St. Augustine’s University and the Alpha Kappa chapter from North Carolina Central University and the Iota Xi chapter from Duke University,” McQueen said.

Four teams will be playing in the tournament from Kappa Alpha Psi, Alpha Phi Alpha, 100 Black Men of America and Psi Beta Sigma. The tournament will be set up in standard bracket form, with semi-finals and a finals game.

In order to keep the audience entertained, the event will also have several games and activities, as well as a DJ and music.

“We’re going to have a [basket-ball] dunking contest and a couple activities between the two games to keep the crowd into it. We have a DJ coming so there’s going to be music, just [to] make it a fun at-mosphere for everyone,” Palmer said.

The charity aspect of the tourna-ment is still the focus of the event. Each participating organization will be asked to donate 10 canned goods and $2 for each member of

This spring’s Redress Raleigh proceeds will be donated to MorLove, an organization that helps orphans in Uganda

Ty JohnsonEditor-in-Chief

While Redress Raleigh 2010 will be moving further away from cam-pus to Downtown Raleigh instead of happening on Hillsborough Street this year, the connection to campus will remain strong as the proceeds from the eco-friendly fashion show will continue to benefit MorLove, a philanthropic organization founded by Mor Aframian, who graduated from the College of Textiles in May.

MorLove benefits Amani Baby Cot-tage in Jinja, Uganda, an orphanage where children aged six or younger live, most because their parents died from HIV complications. Aframian said half the children living at the cot-tage are HIV positive.

“[The children] don’t really have a voice of their own,” she said. “Africa, in general, is just a very poor country.”

Aframian said though a lot of aid

is sent to the continent, a focus on helping the youth population could lead to the next generation

that organization.“For our particular frater-

nity, we have 15 members, so we’ll bring 10 canned goods, plus $2 per person, so $30, that’ll really build up with all of the different organizations we have involved,” Palmer said.

Donation bins will be avail-able so that the public can con-tribute their share.

The Helping Hands Mission will receive all of the donations from this event.

“We got into contact with the Helping Hands Mission and decided to team up, we’re rais-ing money and food to donate to them. We’re going to take the money and sponsor individual families for their Thanksgiving meals.” McQueen said.

Already, the efforts to get the event into the spotlight have paid off, according to Palmer.

“We have over 300 people confirmed to come on Face-book, and we’ve been taking in names of people from other schools so they can get into Carmichael. We have people

coming from Duke, NCCU, UNC-Charlotte and from St. Augustine’s, so people from all over the community are com-ing and supporting it. We have alumni brothers [from] our fraternity who are also com-ing.” Palmer said.

According to McQueen, there is a continued increase in the number of organizations want-ing to participate, although it is only a few days off.

“It’s over 27 total organiza-tions that are involved in this right now, 21 on-campus and 6 off-campus, and it seems like the number’s growing every day, since someone else sees the [news about the] event and it’s like ‘hey, we want to help out’ and so it grows. By the time of the event, it’s going to be 25, 26 on campus organizations [that are involved],” McQueen said.

Even considering this is the first year of the event, the in-tention is to keep it running on an annual basis and to expand it further to involve more of the N.C. State community in future years.

“It’s pretty big already, but we’re trying to make it grow, and that’s the point of trying to

make sure that everyone knows about it and is aware of the fact that we’re trying to make it happen,” McQueen said.

“Our goal, really, is to incor-porate the N. C. State student body, but in upcoming years we hope to make it a community event, where really the whole Triangle area can get involved in this initiative,” Palmer said.

Palmer said although or-ganizing the event has been enjoyable, he still wants the Kappa Alpha team to win the tournament.

“Personally, I think that we’ve done a good job thus far organizing, and I hope every-thing runs smoothly, but now on the other side of things, it’s still a basketball tournament and we still want to go ahead and win our tournament, get a couple practices in and make sure we go home with a [win],” Palmer said.

Parks expressed his hopeful-ness for the continued success of the event in the future.

“I feel as if anything you do for a great cause can have a great outcome,” Parks said.

Senior class council discusses the benefits of giving back

Laura WilkinsonStaff Writer

Three red, white and black boxes with University revenue information are in the Brick-yard this week asking for help with this year’s senior class gift and to show the impact alumni have monetarily on the Univer-sity.

Jay Dawkins, senior in civil engineering and senior class president, s a i d t h e blocks represent chunks of t he bud-g e t t h a t are funded by tuition, state money and other sources, like giving.

“We’re trying to raise aware-ness of what role alumni-giving plays,” Dawkins said. “Tuition and fees covers about 15 per-cent. About half of the budget is paid for by the state, but that leaves a big gap. There’s still a 37 percent gap that the Univer-sity has to fill.”

Dawkins said that the pri-mary sources of money to fill in the gaps are from contracts, grants and alumni-giving.

“[Alumni-giving] impacts student scholarships, faculty salary, stuff like that,” Dawkins said. “We want to show stu-

dents, especially seniors, that anything we can give back makes a difference.”

The blocks in the Brickyard are meant to create a large vi-sual for students, and specifi-cally for seniors, Dawkins said.

“It becomes a little bit more compelling once you see [the visual]. We’re trying to boost understanding of the big pic-ture,” Dawkins said. “It’s part of the senior class gift project.”

The Class of 2010 will be the first class since 2002 to give a gift to the University that is not a scholarship endowment.

Aman-da Kerr, senior in civil en-gineer-ing and member of the se-nior class council, said the council,

the group raising awareness of the role of alumni and student giving, is trying to raise money for the senior class gift, which is to finish the Memorial Bell Tower.

“The senior class council is trying to bridge the gap between graduating as a stu-dent and giving back to your school,” Kerr said. “The way to give back to your school, for students, is through the Of-fice of Annual Giving, and this money goes directly to students to help students so your tuition won’t be as high.”

wanting to help others as they were helped in their childhood.

She said the texti les background she gained at the University married well with her passion to aid others when she conceptu-alized the idea for MorLove.

“I learned a lot about the waste and pollution that comes from produc-ing textiles,” she said of her education at NCSU. “I really wanted to bring the two as-pects of my life together as far as human rights activism and sustainability. One day I decided this is what I want to do with my life.”

Redress Raleigh is seeking designers for its show, which is tentatively scheduled for April 17 at a venue not yet determined.

The fashion show puts an emphasis on eco-friendly fabrics and fashions, and organizers are looking for designers that share an in-fatuation for green styles, though that won’t limit the creativity the show will em-ploy according to Redress Raleigh Coproducer Jamie Powell.

“Aside from being eco-friendly and wearable, we’re wide open,” she said of the types of designers Redress is looking for. “As far as styles of clothing, we really want a diverse range of styles.”

Those who were involved with last year’s show were invited to participate again via e-mail Monday, but many Textiles students were

also included in the invitation.“There’s a lot of talent in

the College of Textiles, so we wanted to get the word out to all those students who may be interested in applying,” Powell said.

Powell said the show was meant to be a jumping off point for designers, but that local business owners often attend the show seeking ideas and concepts.

“There’s a chance they’ll get seen and they’ll be contacted,” she said. “The sky’s the limit.”

Beyond designers, the show needs volunteers to help out with lighting, seating, back-stage and publicity. Powell said last year more than 100 people were involved in putting the show together.

“We definitely still need vol-unteers,” Powell said. “Espe-cially in fundraising.”

Powell said more fundrais-ing ahead of the show to fund it will lead to more money to be donated to MorLove.

Shari Bolar is the creative di-rector and producer of Revolu-tion Couture, a fashion show planned to raise funds for Re-dress.

Bolar said more fashion designers are taking greener approaches to their craft, and her show was an opportunity for her to benefit MorLove through Redress.

“A lot of fashion shows we’ve had in Raleigh and designers are becoming more green. We use more clothes that are made from recyclable materials,” Bolar said. “I wanted to help [Redress] in some way, and basically I wanted to represent the change that is happeneing in Raleigh.”

Bolar also has a passion for humanitarian aid as she was impacted by a film about chil-dren in Uganda.

“I saw their suffering and I want to help,” she said. “I feel like this is a really good op-portunity for everyone to go beyond themselves and help people in need and also en-joy something helpful to our earth.”

“Whatever students went with, we picked,” Crabtree said. “I don’t think atten-dance will be affected.”

Rogers said students won’t want to miss the event.

“It is a great way to kick off the semester and welcome students back to campus,” she said. “Hopefully it will be warmer than last year.”

Rodgers said student at-tendance overall will be af-fected, but the changes will not affect him personally.

“It will definitely affect attendance because people will be on vacations and not ready to come back to school yet,” he said. “The hope of seeing us win is what will bring me back early.”

Crabtree said the registra-tion process will be the same as last year, but the registra-tion period will be open for a month.

“A longer registration pe-riod will increase participa-tion and get students excited about it,” she said. “We will make it the best Campout ever.”

In the days leading up to N.C. State’s unimpres-sive football performance

against South Carolina at the start of the season, many faith-ful Wolfpack fans were up in arms over the ticketing system.

Seniors and juniors who had been to every football game while they were at the Univer-sity could not fathom how such a large number of freshmen won admission to the game while they were left to watch the game from home. Some students complained that the expansion in group sizes dur-ing the off-season had allowed many freshmen into the game under an older student’s group leader ID.

Students cried foul and Stu-dent Government ensured students they would attempt to remedy the problems, with some of Student Government’s leaders mentioning the impor-tance of addressing it before the highly anticipated Pitts-burgh game.

The Pittsburgh game has come and gone, so have the games against Duke and Mary-land and the request period for Clemson, yet no changes have materialized and loyal fans are left in the same ticketing co-nundrum. As basketball season

approaches, what changes can fans expect in ticket distribu-tion?

The idea of averaging the loy-alty points of all the members within a group seems to have gone nowhere and any changes appear to have stalled.

This is a two-month-old problem — changes should al-ready be in place, but certainly should be out of the discussion phase by now.

Students deserve a revamped system that rewards every stu-dent for his or her individual loyalty, not just that of the

group leader — a system that will not enable 98 freshmen to sit courtside for their first basketball game against UNC-Chapel Hill because they all joined the group of a senior who has been 45 minutes early to every game.

The system must be amended before the start of ACC basket-ball play, that much is clear. But it is inexcusable for changes to come so slowly on an issue that influences students’ college ex-perience.

Thursday is the first regular-season basketball game of the season — change needs to come quickly.

The unsigned editorial is the opinion of the members of Technician’s editorial board excluding the news department and is the responsibility

of the Editor-in-Chief.

Ticketing change needs some urgencyThe FacTs:The Wolfpack plays its first regular-season basketball game Thursday. Despite persistent complaints about the ticket-distribution system, little to no change has occurred.

Our OpiniOn:The ticketing system should have been addressed and fixed after the South Carolina game at the start of the season. Despite the pitifully long delay, it must be changed quickly before basketball seasons revs up.

Last Tuesday was a big victory for the Repub-lican Party and could

help shore up a shaken con-servative base and provide

legitimacy to an or-ganization t hat was polling c lo s e to 20 percent in nation-wide party identity polls. In a reversal of Election Day results a year ago,

Republican candidates for governor in Virginia and New Jersey soundly defeat-ed their opponents in what some saw as a repudiation of President Barack Obama’s governing mandate. Virgin-ia’s result — a traditional Republican stronghold, — gave party leaders a sigh of relief after Obama carried the state in the 2008 elec-tion and proved that, while it isn’t as reliably red as it used to be, it is still capable of electing conservative candidates to office.

While this is a tremen-dous boost for the Repub-lican Party going into the 2010 mid-term elections, I’m not sure if it’s fair to paint this election as a true rejection of the Obama ad-ministration’s policies. New Jersey saw an unpopular in-cumbent governor — who has a background in the

same Wall Street companies that received the popular blame concerning the economic col-lapse — lose to a Republican candidate who staked his repu-tation on being a muckraker in a state that does not have the best reputation for clean gov-ernment. Both states saw exit polls point out that Obama is still a fairly popular president and witnessed a slightly differ-ent electorate in 2009 than in 2008. Young people only made up 11 percent of the general electorate in New Jersey and Virginia in this election rather than the 20 percent they made up in the 2008 electorate.

It’s interesting to look at this from some different angles. Some of the young people that came out in 2008 may never come out to vote again in future elec-tions. That’s speculation at this point, b u t w i t h Obama’s fall-ing approval ratings it’d be fair to guess t h a t s ome people who supported his candidacy may be getting disillusioned and choose to stay at home the next time. They certainly did in New Jersey and Virginia even with Obama making personal pleas for their votes at the last minute. Regardless, an older electorate was motivated to come out in the 2009 election. It was an electorate that was motivated primarily by the economy, which continues to

show a lack of job growth. What’s important is that this electorate, motivated by the economy much as they were in 2008, turned to Republican candidates rather than the Democratic candidates.

I’m hesitant to use the elections in New Jersey and Virginia as a litmus test for the 2010 midterms but I think it shows that there is realistic hope for the Re-publicans. Voters are not happy with how the econo-my is shaping up and they’re turning against the Demo-cratic Party. There’s a differ-ent electorate that was mo-tivated to vote — an older, more traditional electorate, which tends to favor the Re-publican Party rather than

the Dem-ocrats. Without Obama on the ballot i n 2010, the turn-out could be similar. T he Re-publicans

aren’t without their own problems as they struggle for an identity, but history is on their side in the midterm elections as the president’s party historically loses seats in Congress.

The story of D.H. Hill and me

“In fact, every

time I have been

to the library,

I’ve made my

life better. ”

I never knew you could keep a locker at the D.H. Hill library; I’ve been

having fun taking out the lap-tops; I use the tablets for read-

ing, despite their unpopu-larity.

I just dis-covered that the philoso-phy section is on the third f loor; but I never forgot that one night that D.H. and me got down

with English literature on the fifth floor.

I love the diversity. I sit down with Druze, African-Ameri-cans, German and Nicaraguan foreign exchange students and Arab and Asian-Americans.

The special collections room is my favorite right now, with its combination of desk and ceiling lights. I feel like the li-brary got the lighting just right (except for the last table on the left as you en-ter — which hasn’t been fixed in the couple weeks since it went out. I don’t th ink any-one has told the staff). I like the fact that there is, at any given time, at least one kid there.

The Unity lab on the second floor is another new favorite. The Learning Commons on the first floor is usually for faster stuff, but I still adore it just the same.

I love the second floor space in the L of the stacks next to the men’s room with the gi-ant windows in the morning, where the natural light merges with the artificial light. I like the searing yellow at this same spot in the late afternoon that reminds me to take a break.

I just discovered you can use dry erase markers on the glass tables on the ground f loor, which I have been having fun with; but I’ll never forget one math class I took where we met Monday through Thurs-day and surrounded ourselves with the white boards in the Learning Commons.

I like the people who keep this place up because I feel as though I can indentify their sense of purpose as they keep this place up. Vice Provost Su-san Nutter, who oversees the li-braries, does not know me, but every once and a while I see her and she’s always smiling. I’ve had great chats with several of the circulation desk workers.

I meet my friends there. On weekends for a while I was coming here to take practice LSATs. I like the quiet semi-silence and blue morning light of the mornings. But I also like the uproarious din at 10 p.m. on a weeknight. I like how, if my friend Jon likes listening to music, he can take out head-phones.

I’ve played Smash Brothers when I needed a break. I’ve taken walks to talk philoso-phy around the library. I’ve spent night after night before finals at the library. I’ve had too many all nighters here, and the strange sort of clarity that comes with the waking

hours af ter you’ve spent all night here.

I d o n ’ t know what’s u p w i t h t he s e t i ny t ra sh ca ns — t he y ’re always over-flowing. And they’re there for 30,0 0 0

students. I’ve met friends for studying,

but I’ve also met people for the first time here. I was bored in line at the Hill of Beans, so I struck up a conversation with a beautiful woman one time, and we ended up dating.

It’s even safe to say that ev-ery relationship I have had has been made better by studying at the D.H. Hill Library.

In fact, every time I have been to the library, I’ve made my life better. I don’t think I can say that about any other place I’ve been to.

University programs help farmers stay on their feet

Alanna HowardStaff Writer

With a recession growing, food prices are one downside, but programs spon-sored by the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences ensure farmers are no longer on their own.

One program, the N.C. Market Ready subhead of the CALS Cooperative Exten-sion, aims to educate the public about programs that help agriculture enterprise development, inform about fresh produce regulations and provide techniques to strengthen business strategies to support farms.

Value-Added and Alternative Agricul-ture policy professor Blake Brown said N.C. Market Ready focuses on the fresh produce industry, but in some cases es-pecially local produce.

“Local produce is a part of the economic value of the fresh produce industry. Using produce from a smaller range has many benefits both on the economy and for farmers,” he said.

As more consumers become aware of the importance of fresh, beneficial food, they turn to healthy food, preferably local. Growers respond to this demand.

“We’ve seen several farms pop up and survive along urban places like I-85, or in metropolitan areas like Charlotte. This is significant because it provides new eco-nomic opportunities in locations previ-ously monopolized with fast food or su-permarkets,” Brown said. “It is also good because it provides new jobs and labor for people in those areas.”

These types of farms belong to markets where consumers buy from Farmers Mar-kets, buy a share of a farmer’s crop for a season or buy straight from the farm.

Sharecropping is when consumers split the cost of running a farm for the season and then own a portion of the season’s har-vest. If a farm is not set up to run in this manner, consumers can either buy from local Farmers Mar-kets or go straight to the source.

“Depending on the location of the fa r m, consu m-ers have different options to obtain their products,” Brown said.

There are many pros to supporting local farms for con-sumers and for the farmers.

Brown lists the common pros like the product is fresher and tastes better, and there is a cultural and moral benefit to going to the Farmers Market or the farm.

“When someone buys a product straight from the person who grew it, there is a sense of satisfaction you are talking to the person who made your food. There are no hidden chemicals or mass-produced downsides,” he said.

But for every pro there is a con, and when the cons hurt people’s pockets the knowl-edge of the origin of the product might not be as important.

“Buying a premium product comes with paying a premium price,” Brown said.

It is also difficult for small farms to pro-duce on a large scale.

Brown said there are many part-time farms under their program, but with FDA bills moving forward that impose new regulations on fresh produce safety, small farms have increased challenges.

“Without hiring additional labor, it is hard to have lots of land without too much work, but costs are still high and prevent

hiring lots of additional labor,” he said.Western North Carolina AgOptions is a

grant program that is also associated with the University’s cooperative extension.

Funded through the N.C. Tobacco Trust Fund Commission, the program gives grants to farmers across the state who are diversifying the way they run their farms or grow their crops. Primarily aimed at transitioning tobacco farmers, the pro-gram allows farmers to receive seed money to pay for expenses for trying something new.

Megan Riley, project manager for AgOp-tions, said the market is an “untapped source” since the vast majority of produce

sold in the state is shipped in from out of state.

“We work with local farms, and since the mar-ket has grown so much in last five years, these types of farmers are ap-plying to get money to be self-sufficient in a new venture,” she said.

The system is based on points

given depending on experience, the quality of the proposed project and other quali-fications. Five years of experience is ideal.

Jennifer Curtis, project director for N.C. Choices and the Center for Farm-ing Systems initiative, works with fund-ing projects involved with pasture-based livestock. Their work with the University involves helping extension agents reach out to farmers selling to local markets to keep money reinvested in local allied businesses.

Curtis said the initiative works to help farmers keep more of the profit.

“We do lots of work with professors to help farmers understand the issues in-volved in selling meat, retain greater por-tions of the food dollar by selling into local markets and understand the restrictions of meat selling,” she said.

According to Curtis, currently 25 cents of every dollar goes to the farmer. The initiative is trying to get farmers to sell directly to consumers who get to retain full retail value.

The response so far has been positive,

with increasing numbers of farmers selling meat to local markets.

“There has been an explosion in the past four years of farmers selling meat directly. It has increased tenfold,” she said.

The weekly Wednesday Farmers Market

is one option to buy local meat. It is an on-campus market organized by students and is in the Brickyard from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

AmAndA Wilkins/TechniciAn file phoToLane Daley, a junior in chemical engineering, juggles a slice of watermelon at the Farmers Market in the Brickyard Sept. 2. “[The farmers’ market] is awesome. I don’t have a car, and the Farmers Market is at inconvenient times. This brings the local produce to the students. It is an awesome idea,” Daley said.

Basal ganglia, the area of the brain e�ected by Huntington’s Disease. This region controls thinking, emotion, and

movement. Symptoms between the ages of 30 and 50 (but symptoms can appear earlier or later in life). The disease gets

worse over time.

How can you diagnose it?

During pregnancy a woman can �nd out if her baby will have the disease with two tests: 1. Taking a sample of �uid from around the fetus (amniocentesis), or 2. By taking a sample of fetal cells from the placenta (chorionic villus sampling).

After the child is born, doctors can identify the disease by �rst doing a series of neuro-logical and psychological tests. A genetic test can then con�rm the diagnosis by determining if the person indeed has inher-ited the HD gene mutation. However, the test cannot tell at what age a person will begin to get sick.

How is HD treated?

Treatments do not slow the progression of the disease, but they can help make the patient more comfortable.

Medications ease feelings of depression and anxiety; others control involuntary move-ments.

Physical or speech therapy helps HD patients lead more normal lives.

New center at Duke University researches Huntington’s Disease

Jessica NevilleStaff Writer

Improvements in medicine and technology have enabled people in the 21st century to live longer than ever before in human history. According to the National Center for Health Sta-tistic’s Health, United States 2008 pub-lication, in 2006 the life expectancy at birth for the total population of the U.S. was 78.1 years. In 1900, a person who lived to 48 had already lived past the average life expectancy.

While increased longevity means more years to enjoy a healthy life for many people, it can also bring on dif-ficult illnesses and age related condi-tions for others. Perhaps one of the most well-known and tragic diseases effecting the elderly is Alzheimer’s disease, which slowly strips away a person’s memory.

Less well known is Huntington’s Disease, a fatal genetic disorder that involves slow degeneration of brain cells, leading to loss of mental, emo-tional and physical capabilities. The North Carolina Center for the Care of Huntington’s Disease estimates that there are 550 N.C. HD patients and 2,750 affected family members of patients in North Carolina.

North Carolina is at the forefront of developing research of treatment of age-related chronic diseases, both physical and mental. Last month, at Duke University, the North Carolina Huntington’s Disease Association met with scientists to discuss the new HD Center and the latest research for the treatment of the disease.

Although HD affects three to seven out of every 100,000 people in the U.S., it also impacts the families of those that have to care for the person with the disease. In addition, the research being conducted for HD will have

implications for all age-related men-tal illnesses, including Alzheimer’s Disease.

Charles Sabine had been a NBC news reporter for 27 years when he discovered he had Huntington’s Dis-ease in 2005. He was among those present at Duke University advocating for those suffering from the disease, although he has not started showing any symptoms — yet. One of the most unnerving elements of this condition is that the victims do not know when the disease will take hold.

“I covered 13 wars and seven revolu-

tions for NBC,” Sabine said. “My fa-ther died from Huntington’s Disease and I put off being genetically tested for a long time. When I was confirmed to have the disease, I decided to use my time to speak as an advocate while I still can.”

Sabine said he encourages people to understand that the research being conducted for this disease has imple-mentations for everyone.

“People should care because this re-search is at the cutting edge of genet-ics,” Sabine said. “In the middle of this century half the people in this world

will be affected by mental illness, be-cause everyone is living so long. The work these scientists are doing will ef-fect people in North Carolina in the very near future.”

The gene for HD was discovered in 1993 but there is no cure for the illness. Scientists are working to de-velop drugs that can effectively treat and delay the symptoms. The illness also carries a 50 percent chance of be-ing passed on from a carrier to his or her children.

Dr. Mary Edmondson, the president of the North Carolina Center for the

Care of Huntington’s Disease, said college students should be concerned about this disease because mental ill-nesses will have a great impact on their futures.

“Many people with HD are diag-nosed incorrectly, while others could be carrying the gene and have never been tested to know,” Edmondson said.

Edmondson said part of the work her organization does is to work with government officials to make sure they know the special needs of people with HD.

“As Congress considers changing the healthcare system, we hope they keep in mind small, underrepresented populations who need special care such as those suffering from HD,” Edmonson said.

Lucero Galvan, a freshman in bio-logical sciences, has a grandmother with advanced stage Alzheimer’s Dis-ease.

“My grandmother remembers my mother as a little girl, so she doesn’t recognize her the age she is now,” Galvan said. “The hardest part for my family is having to constantly worry about her. My grandpa takes care of her but he is in his ‘80s and it is hard for him too.”

Galvan said he was pleased to hear scientists were working on treatments for the disease.

“Right now there is no cure at all for Alzheimer’s. It would mean a lot to my family to know that other people care about what we are going through,” Galvan said.

According to the American Health Assistance Foundation, scientists be-lieve the likelihood of developing Al-zheimer’s and other mental illnesses can by decreased by “exercising the brain,” taking vitamins, working out and being socially active.

“Every time you can have the support of the fans it really gives us a big boost,” Tarantini said.

Another top team com-peting in this tournament is Wake Forest, who holds the number one seed in the tournament and is ranked third in the national polls. Six teams currently repre-sent the ACC on the nation-al stage by being ranked in the top 25 in the polls.

“Every game in the ACC is a big game, so the tour-nament is not that differ-ent from conference play,” Widman said.

N.C. State will look to be competitive against a na-tionally ranked Tar Heel squad with its own nation-

ally recognized players. The Wolfpack has 13 players who are either juniors or seniors with previous tournament ex-perience and an understanding of what the ACC tournament is

all about. “We are a senior group, and

we are not looking beyond [the ACC Tournament] yet,” Wid-man said.

Russell’s mother to celebrate and remember with their son’s former teammates. Buckley said former Pack players flew in from Chicago, Boston and Texas for the game.

“[The ceremony] meant everything,” Buckley said. “Stephen played hockey with passion, and these boys out there on the ice mean every-thing to us. What’s neat for us is the school, the players and the coaches are behind us and they really care.”

Freshman Matt Valesko started the scoring for State at 9:15 in the first period. Sopho-more Kriss Lans, who leads the team in scoring with 15 points, added another tally to bring it

to 2-0. UNC drew within one close to the end of the period, but Dombrowski restored the two-goal lead with a booming slapshot 27 seconds later.

Neither team earned any ground in the second period. Each scored once and filled in the rest of the time with small scrums. Early in the third, tempers f lared when a Pack player was pushed into UNC goaltender Lyle Baumgarten, who took offense and started throwing fists.

Baumgarten stoned the Pack on several chances in the third period, but junior Jonathan Hires and senior Phil Mason put the game away with a goal apiece.

Dombrowski said the Pack was happy to get a win in honor of Russell.

“We could have played a little better, but we were happy we

got the win,” Dombrowski said.Senior Wil White, who split

net duties with Russell for two years, got his second win in his past two starts after stopping 29 of 31 shots.

State will be on the road for much of the rest of the semes-ter. The tournament the team hosts every winter, formerly known as the Canes Cup, was renamed the Stephen Russell Memorial Tournament and will take place Jan. 15-17 at the RecZone.

Dombrowski said the timing of the road swing is ideal.

“We’re all starting to come together,” Dombrowski said. “We’re rallying together and doing better now.”

In his final ACC tournament, Bouemboue, Pack look to go out with a bang

Sean KlemmSenior Staff Writer

Redshirt senior Ronnie Bouemboue, the Congo na-tive hailing from Brooklyn, N.Y. is looking to garner his third ACC All-Tournament team award, and more im-portantly, win a champion-ship to cap off his career.

“It’s a different mindset from the regular season into the postseason,” Bouem-boue said. “The postseason, you know you’re fighting for a shot at the championship. We hope our game steps up, and it will. Hopefully we’ll get the results we want.”

The redshirt senior for-ward is one of ten final-ists for the nationally ac-claimed Lowe’s Senior CLASS Award, awarded annually to top seniors in nine Division I sports. The winner is selected based on personal qualities that define a complete student

athlete. These qualities in-clude academic achievements and progress toward a degree, attributes including leadership and teamwork that define per-sonal character, overcoming obstacles and utilizing status as a college athlete to make an impact in worthwhile causes.

“It’s definite-ly an honor to be nominated and it’s defi-nitely a testa-ment to this program and w h at c oac h [George] Tar-antini tries to develop here,” Bouemboue said. “He not only empha-sizes the game, which we are here to play for, he emphasizes the community, which is very important to me and also the classroom, the real reason we are here. We want to get our de-grees and graduate. I am just thankful for the opportunity I have been given to be here at N.C. State and for all the staff that have helped me become the person that I am today.”

Coach George Tarantini ex-pressed his praise for Bouem-boue and said he deserved the nomination beyond the shad-ow of a doubt.

“I think Ronnie is an example of what we try to accomplish,” Tarantini said. “Soccer is part of who he is, but the biggest

part is the type of hu-man being and the type of student he is. We try to get everything composed in one and Ronnie does a great job with that. We’re ex-

tremely proud of him and his future is very bright. We hope to continue to have those kinds of players to represent the Uni-versity and our soccer team.”

The road for Bouemboue has not been an easy one. He struggled with injuries and had major knee surgery force him to sit out for the entirety of the 2007 season.

“Injuries — nobody likes

injuries, but it’s about what you learn and what you do after it,” Bouemboue said. “Once you get knocked down it’s about how strong you come back up. I’m thankful for the opportu-nity that I’ve had here the past five years. I know that I’m leaving a stronger per-son and a better person than when I came here.”

Ronnie’s willpower and drive are critical aspects that have earned him the position of team captain for the past two seasons.

“I think Ronnie’s deter-mination and his attitude set the tone for his team-mates in many ways,” Tar-antini said. “I think we want to bring to the game hope, desire and pride to compete. This is a very tough league and I think with the right attitude and hard work we’ll be able to make a good run in the post season.”

Annual Toys for Tots collection set for this weekendFor the third year in a row, fans are asked to bring cash and/or unwrapped toys to the football game this weekend. The local chapter of the Toys for Tots Foundation will donate the toys to Triangle children throughout the upcoming holiday season. Last year, in a similar campaign involving Coca-Cola and Harris Teeter, the team raised $32,000 and collected 4,000 toys. Lieutenant General and President and CEO of the foundation Pete Osman will be at midfield for the coin flip prior to kickoff.

Team will begin ACC Tournament against UNC-Chapel Hill on Wednesday at WakeMed Soccer Park

Chadwick O’ConnellStaff Writer

The No. 15 men’s soccer team will take on the No. 2 Tar Heels in the quarterfinal round of the ACC tourna-ment Wednesday at 8 p.m. at WakeMed Soccer Park in Cary. N.C. State (12-5-1, 2-5-1 ACC) concluded the regular season portion of its schedule win-ning eight of the last eleven games. The Tar Heels (13-2-2, 5-2-1 ACC) closed out their season going 10-1-1 over their final twelve games.

“We can control the ball and play with confidence against a very good Carolina team,” coach George Tarantini said.

These two teams last played each other on Sept. 12 and the Wolfpack fell with a score of 2-1 in Chapel Hill. State jumped out to the early lead in the first 70 seconds of the contest, but then was defeated by two unanswered goals. The Tar Heels come into the ACC Tournament with their highest seed in the tournament since 2001. They are led by National Player of the Week sophomore Billy Schuler, who is tied for the ACC lead in game winning goals with six.

Tarantini said the key to winning the rematch will be fixing the errors the team made in the loss to Carolina earlier this year.

“We need to minimize the mistakes we made the first time we played them,” Taran-tini said.

N.C. State comes into the tournament as the seventh seed and is led by senior for-wards Ronnie Bouemboue and Alan Sanchez, who tallied seven goals apiece during the regular season. Redshirt senior goalkeeper Christopher Wid-man, who has accumulated seven shutouts this season and

Club retires Stephen Russell’s jersey, unfurls banner before game against UNC

Kate ShefteSports Editor

Four months after Ste-phen Russell, a goalkeeper for the Pack club ice hockey team, died in an accident at Jordan Lake July 4, his teammates have started moving on. The club has amassed a 4-3 fall record. Russell’s spot on the roster has been filled.

But his presence will be felt on the bench and behind it, where a banner display-ing his name and number was put on display Saturday

night before the team took on ACCHL rival Carolina in its home build-ing, the Rec-Zone, located off Wake For-est Road.

Ben Dom-browsk i , a s e n i o r i n mechanical engineering, was a team-m a t e a n d good friend of Russell’s. He said the banner will serve as a re-minder of someone who gave it all he had for his team each night.

“It makes you want to play harder, seeing [the banner],

knowing that you still have the opportunity to play,” Dom-

browski said.Russell’s

family was on hand to wit-ness the cere-mony, during which lights were dimmed whi le Rus-sell’s No. 20 j e r s e y w a s hung from the goal he used to protect.

Dom-browski said the showing

at the rink, which was filled almost to capacity, was a wel-comed sight.

“It was really a good ceremo-ny and it showed how everyone

really loved and cared about him,” Dombrowski said. “A big crowd came out to support us, which we appreciated.”
