Sometimes it can behard to get exercise whenyou have a desk job. Eighthours in front of thecomputer can leave aperson bored and lifeless.

In March of this year,the SLU Fitness centerkicked off a new faculty andstaff walking club oncampus called Lace andPace. The Lace and PaceWalking Club is a club forUniversity faculty and staffto promote staying activeand gain team buildingskills. Each member gets apedometer so that they cantrack their total steps in aday and the amount ofmiles that they walk total.The club was started byFitness Center and Strengthand Conditioning CoachStuart Hart and Manager ofAthletic Communicationsand New Media Evan Ortiz.

“They started the clubbecause Dr. Kirk wanted away to get the faculty andstaff moving,” said GroupFitness InstructorAlexandra Mwaura, whohas recently been put incharge of the club byStewart Hart in July.

Since taking over inJuly, Mwaura has madesome positive changes to

the club. When the clubstarted back in March,members wereindependent, and turned intheir steps and miles toreceive independentincentives for walkingcertain distances. SinceMwaura was put in chargeof Lace and Pace, she putforth the idea of teams and aFall Challenge to see whichteam can walk the farthest.The teams consist of 4 - 5members (faculty and/orstaff), including a teamcaptain.

The whole club meetson the first Wednesday of

Despite the rainfall,the Saint Leo UniversityRotaract Club had about25 members attend themeeting eagerlyawaiting the speechfrom the DistirctGovernor. They wantedto hear what was sogreat about Rotaractand what set it apartfrom otherorganizations. The clubfirst opened up withupcoming events. We

talked about Fall FamilyFestival, the RattlesnakeFestival, our pen-palproject with theRotaract Club inPakistan, the VintageFashion Show, and ourbeautification project atRotary’s Camp Florida.Roger went on to givehis speech on Rotary,leadership, and youth. Ibelieve everyone walkedout of the room with anew sense of whatRotaract is and what isstands for.

Afterwards, theBoard of Directors met

with Roger and his wife,Linda, to discuss some ofour plans. We talkedabout ways to improveour current projects andpotential future projects.He made us realize morethe impact of Rotary. Ifanyone would like toattend our meetings wemeet Mondays at 5:15pmon Saint Leo Universitycampus. They cancontact our president,Ally Vincent, atAlexandria.vincent

every month, and theindividual teams turn intheir steps and miles everyMonday to their teamcaptain, who then turnsthem into Mwaura. Teammembers can walk togetherin a group or individually.Additionally, the teams canreceive a bonus mile perweek for going to the gym toexercise. Members can go tothe gym at any time that isconvenient for them; thereis no required time to bethere. The teams can alsoreceive incentives andprizes for walking thefarthest during the

challenge. The incentiveshave not been announcedyet, but chances are that it’snot a pizza party. Mwauraalso mentioned that she isworking on a walk-a-thonfor October.

Many faculty and staffhave already created teamswithin their offices. Mostteams walk together duringtheir lunch break times andeat at their desks. It wouldhave to be said that theRegistrar’s office is the mostactive office on campus.They have two teams intheir office and walk duringtheir lunch break and the

two fifteen minute breaksthat they get during theday, and apparently one ofthe teams in the office is inthe lead of the Lace and PaceFall Challenge. One of theteams in the registrar'soffice even has team t-shirtsand matching headbands.

“I walked aroundcampus before the clubstarted, until my friend romthe Registrar’s office told meabout it. I love it, it’s a funway for us to get together toexercise and get fit,” saidPaige Ramsey-Hamacher,Director for Multiculturaland International Services.

Another member ofLace and Pace, DanielleBrowning, Registrar’s OfficeCoordinator, mentioned tonewspaper staff that sheenjoys the walking club. Sheand her teammates walk ontheir breaks and eat theirlunches while workinginstead of taking a break forlunch.

Alexandra Mwaura, thethe leader of Lace and Pacesaid that she likes toencourage and motivate allof the members to stayactive, and looks forwardsto the meetings. Mwauraalso wanted all faculty andstaff to know that it is nottoo late to join Lace andPace. If any staff or facultywant to join, they can emailher ata.mwaura@hotmail.com.

Thursday, Sept. 26students stuffed theirbags with free foodsamples from variousfood distributioncompanies. It was afood festival, and thestudents of Saint LeoUniversity were lovingevery minute of it.

The food was notonly healthconscience, it wasdelicious. There was avariety of gluten-freeproducts up for grabsincluding chocolatechip cookies, pizzas,white chocolate cakes,chocolate cakes, andbreads.

Gluten is a protein

found in wheatproducts as a resultmost desserts are notgluten-free. If aperson has a glutenallergy, it is almostimpossible to findgluten free choices inthe Universities'Dining Hall. And ifthey decide to makehis/her own meals,they can look forwardto spending a prettypenny because gluten-free products are notcheap. The gluten freebrownies tastedexactly the same asbrownies with gluten,my favorite flavor wasmint.

This year ’s eventseemed to be morehealth centered. Mostproducts were low fatalternatives. GoodHealth’s avocado oil,

Chilean lime potatochips were myfavorite alternativechoice to regularpotato chips. Theseflavor-packed chipshave about 30 percentless fat than traditionpotato chips. Chipscooked in avocado oilalso have morevitamins and have abetter chance atbreaking down lowdensity lipoproteins("Bad cholesterol”).

Saint LeoUniversity’s DiningHall should reallyconsider some of thefoods presented atthis festival for thesake of students andstaff members whorequire gluten freeproducts and forstudents who aspire tobe healthier.

Campus NewsSEA and Tri Beta Participate in CoastalCleanup

By Shawnee ArnettContributing Writer

President of SEA Stephanie Holz Photo taken by Shawnee Arnett

Photo taken by Shawnee ArnettAdvisor of SEA Doctor Christopher Miller

At 8 a.m. onSaturday, Sept. 21,when most studentswere still asleep, SEA(Students forEnvironmentalAwareness) and TriBeta (Beta Beta BetaBiology HonorsSociety) were at theUniversities' dockbusily preparing forthis year’s CoastalCleanup.

Coastal Cleanup isan international effortstarted by the OceanConservancy thatfocuses on havingenvironmentalistgroups from aroundthe world spend oneday cleaning up theirlocal shorelines. SinceLake Jovita is right inthe Universities’backyard, SEA and TriBeta focused theirefforts on cleaning upnot just Saint Leo’s sideof the lake but theother private andpublic areas as well.Both clubs set out onthe Univerities’ kayaksto reach the other sidesof the lake andcollected any wasteproducts that theyfound along the way.

When asked if there

had been a significantamount of trash onLake Jovita, StephanieHolz, the SEAPresident and asophomore biomedicalstudies major,answered,“Surprisingly no. Ifound a couple of beerbottles and a couple ofcans of Monster. Therewere more thingstoward the San Annpublic dock on theother side of theshoreline and a coupleof the things by thelake house, otherwise itwas mostly clean.”

When asked togive his insight on theamount of litter foundon the lake, Dr. Chris

Miller, the supervisorof the SEA club,answered, “The lake is,I think, usually keptfairly clean becausethere are privatehomeowners on it, butwherever you getpublic areas or publicaccess, it gets prettybad. On the other sideof the lake, at the SanAntonio dock side,there was a lot ofgarbage because it’spublic access.Fishermen come in,and there’s a littlepavilion over there thatallows people to bringfood and so forth, andthat just results in a lotof garbage that’saccumulated over theyears. They probablyneed to get moregarbage cans over thereto accommodate thefishermen, becausevery often the fishinglines, bobbers,Styrofoam containers,drink cans, bottles, andall of that gets kind oftossed into the lake orin and around theshoreline.”

Miller thenestimated that thecombined efforts of theSEA and Tri Beta led tothe collection of“probably 40 lbs. ofgarbage.”

When asked whatshe thought of SaintLeo’s generalenvironmentalawareness, Holz said, “Ithink it’s mediocre. Weneed to work on itquite a bit more.

Honestly, what we didtoday was really a stepin progress, but weneed to promote morerecycling. People needto understand thatthere’s a trash canversus a recycling binand what it’s for. Theyneed to know what weactually do with therecycled products andhow we actuallyprocess them to makenew products out ofthe recycled products.”

Dr. Miller added tothis sentiment, stating“to me, the biggestproblem with waste oncampus is not thewaste, per se, but it’strying to get some ofthat garbage into therecycling cans, andthat’s a different issue.We’ve got a lot ofgarbage, but thenwe’ve got anunnecessary amount ofstuff being thrownaway. We have what’scalled single streamrecycling, whichmeans that anythinggoes. You can recyclealmost anything if itdoesn’t have some sortof food contaminatingit, [for instance] a pizzabox, you can’t do[recycle] that. Butbottles, cans, plastic,paper, all of it, can berecycled. That’s thebigger problem, is thatwe don’t have a good

enough awareness, andwe don’t have enoughrecycling receptaclesright now toaccommodate that. Butthat’s more of anawareness issue. Weneed to get peopleaware of what’s to bethrown away andwhat’s recycled. “

Along withpromoting awarenessof both the cleanlinessof Lake Jovita and theimportance ofrecycling on campus,both Holz and Millerplan for the SEA clubto get studentsinvolved in being moreenvironmentallyfriendly by introducingenriching activitiessuch as the CoastalCleanup.

According toMiller, the main goal ofthe SEA club is to“highlight places in thegeneral area that willallow students to getout and enjoy natureand also do somecommunity service atthe same time.”

Holz adds that theactivities planned forthis year are bothenvironmentallyfriendly and enjoyable.

“We’re alsoplanning on maybegoing to the zoo, theaquarium, goingkayaking or goingfishing on the river,The HillsboroughRiver, that is, maybeeven the WithlacoocheeRiver State Park. Weplan on going arounddoing fun things likethat," said Holz.

With the promise ofa strong upcomingyear, there is no doubtthat with the help ofthe SEA club, thecampus will be a moreenvironmentallyfriendly place.

Arts & EntertainmentThis For That: A Guide to Substituting forHealthier Foods

By Wendy LegoreteDistribution Editor

It’s not easy to behealthy when baking orcooking from scratch.For instance, every time Iwant to try a traditionalrecipe, like gingerbreador even simple oatmealcookies, one of the mainingredients is a hugeamount of butter. We’retalking whole sticks, andfor those of you whodon’t know how manycalories are in the averagestick of butter, it’s 800.Which, granted, isn’t sobad for a whole batch ofbread or cookies, but ifyou’re the kind of person

who is more health-conscious you’reprobably more interestedin the amount of "bad"cholesterol (LDL), sugar,sodium, and saturatedand trans fats that areending up in yourhomemade goodies. Sohere are some unlikely,salubrious ingredientsthat can be snuck intoyour food. You won’t belikely to notice thedifference:

Mashed Avocado forButter: For those of youwho read that “AppleOatmeal Cookies” recipe,you probably noticedthat the recipe called foravocado. Strange as itseems, mashed avocado

can be substituted forbutter in baking. It’sbasically allmonounsaturated fat(which is the “good”kind of fat found invegetables) and at halfthe calories per wholefruit with plenty ofvitamins. Note: noticehow I specify “mashed”avocado. I once tried justmeasuring out theavocado in tablespoonswithout mashing it for arecipe; needless to say,the mix didn’t turn out aswell as I would havehoped.

Applesauce (ormashed bananas) forSugar: Fruit are prettysugary by themselves,

but using applesauce(sweetened orunsweetened, dependingon your preference)instead of the typical,refined, white, granulatedsugar is a lot morebeneficial to your body.By using applesauce youget the fiber and the rightamount of sweetness thatcomes naturally with thefruit. Note: Granulatedsugar can be substitutedfor with “wet”ingredients likeapplesauce withouthaving to compensate forthe right consistency butonly up to 1 cup. Anyamount more than thatand you’ll have to find away to increase the dry

ingredients in such amanner so that theproduct comes outtasting the way it’ssupposed to whilemaintaining its structuralintegrity.

Pureed Squash forSour Cream (to thickensoups): It’s a vegetableinstead of cream.

Whole Wheat Flourfor White Flour: Yes, theydo sell whole wheat flour.And the main reasonwhole wheat flour ismore desirable thanwhite flour is simply forthe fact that it is lessrefined. This makes itslower to digest, whichmeans after consuming ityou stay fuller longer.

This is Halloween: Students Plan for FallBy Jocelyne Hilary

Staff Writer

Pumpkins, fall,costumes and largeamounts of candy are justfew terms that weassociate with bothOctober and Halloween.So as the season drawsupon us, one question tobe answered is, why isHalloween so popular asone tradition that we allstill anticipate withenthusiasm even at amature age?

First thing first, doesOctober only causeexcitement because ofHalloween or could thisjust be a misconception?For most toddlers andkids, October probablydoes only carrysignificance because ofHalloween. It is the onetime of year that allowsmost children to do allthe things they love inone night. Staying uplate, buying or creatingscary costumes to wear,and collecting morecandy in one night thatyou could dream ofeating. It is a kid’s fantasy.

However, what canbe said about the oldergeneration like collegestudents? Has theexcitement alwaysnaturally been there or isit an outdated phase?Senior Kirsten Sullivanexpressed her enthusiasm

and eagerness forOctober to arrive.

“Firstly, Octobermarks the countdown toChristmas. Octoberpretty much symbolizesHalloween and thenNovember creeps us withThanksgiving and thenfinally the Christmasperiod arrives. Octoberalso represents change, sowe can all accept summeris over. The stores are allfull of pretty Halloweendecorations, Starbucksinvites the return of thePumpkin spice latte,which is my absolutefavorite, and theHalloween Horror nightsat Universal. These arethings I look forward to. Idon’t think most peoplewould think ofHalloween as childish, it’sa great opportunity forme to even dress up, Imay not go trick ortreating anymore, butthere are Halloweenfestivities that go on thatare always fun. Plus, it’salways nice to have anopportunity to eat a lot ofcandy,” said Sullivan.

So what fun activitiescan one do thisHalloween season? Easyenough, you could startby looking on campus.Traditionally, thefreshmen dormsMarmion and Snyderhave the opportunity forlocal children to cometrick-or-treat. This is a

nice gesture to geteveryone in the spookyspirit. If that’s not yourthing, why not partake inthe “Haunted Marmionand Snyder,” which islike a mini version of thehaunted houses you’remost likely to find atother events.

There are those whoprefer having a night inwith friends, orderingtake out and popping ina classic Halloween suitedmovie, whether it be agory horror or simplytimeless childhoodclassics such as “HokusPokus,” “The nightmarebefore Christmas” or“The Adam’s family."

If staying in isn’t yourfancy, you should trygoing to the movies in alarge group to watch ahorror film. It might justgive you a rush. Withhorror films morepopular this season, itmay be a great idea to getoff campus and get in thespirit. With films such as“Insidious 2" and“Carrie” shortly to bereleased, there are waysto still get spooked.

For those who are bigfans of Halloween, goingout to costume partiesmay be your scene.There’s nothing thatcomes as close to relivingsome childhoodmemories than findingthat perfect Halloweencostume to spook people

out.Last but not least, let’s

not forget the great offerour very own CAB offersevery year. Yes, I amtalking about the twotrips to both UniversalStudios and BuschGardens. HalloweenHorror Nights and Howl-O-Scream have been twoof the CAB events thatsell out the quickest. Foran amazingly cheap priceof $10, is it really asurprise that these ticketsrun out within seconds.These two events see thewhole theme park take ascary turn for the worstwith the addition ofhaunted houses, maskedfigurines, completedarkness, smoke andspooky music.

Are you up for thechallenge? Tickets forHalloween Horror Nightswill be on sale onTuesday, Oct. 8 at 10 p.m.Tickets for Howl-O-Scream will be on saleTuesday, Oct. 15 at 11p.m. Make sure to set areminder because it is notan exaggeration that thesetickets sell out withinseconds.

“I’ve gone toHalloween Horror Nightsalmost every year sincemy freshmen year. Theprice is a bargain and weare so lucky to have thatthanks to CAB. I am nota huge fan of rollercoasters and such, but I

do like seeing UniversalStudios in pitch black, itjust sets the tone, and it isfunny seeing people getterrified especially in thehaunted houses. I amhoping to get ticketsagain this year if I amlucky enough, since it’salways a blast and a greatway to spend Halloweenwith your friends,” saidsenior Bobby Cote.

Staying within theOrlando area, Sept.through Nov. 1, WaltDisney World will host itsannual Mickey’sHalloween Party, so youcan get in the spirit in amagical way with allyour favorite childhoodcharacters. This issomething you could dowith your family, if youhave younger siblings orprefer to spendHalloween not terrified.From trick-or-treating inMagic Kingdom, toHalloween themedparades and fireworksthat will take your breathaway, there will be nodisappointment. Theonly downside is thattickets are hard to get ahold of and can turn outto be quite pricey.

Halloween doesn’thave to be a thing of thepast. With just a coupleweeks to get through,keep in mind that there’splenty to do thisHalloween season.

Chbosky, The GreatGatsby by F. ScottFitzgerald, and The Lordof the Rings by J.R.R.Tolkien share one thingin common besidesbeing read by millionsof people. These books,among hundreds ofothers, have been eitherbanned or challenged to

be banned in schoolsand libraries, for subjectmatter which some findinappropriate forchildren or morallyoffensive. According tobannedbooksweek.org,the week of September22 – 28 was NationalBanned Books Weekduring which libraries

and bookstores calledattention to the problemof censorship bypromoting challengedbooks and hostingspecial events.Eventhough books may belisted as ‘banned’ or‘challenged,’ not allschools and librariesremove them from the

shelves. According tobannedbooksweek.org,Banned Books Weekwas launched in 1982and occurs annually.Since 1982, over 11,300books have beenchallenged with 464challenges reported for2012.

“Books are banned out of fear,” said Assistant Professor of English Allyson Marino, “they are a threat to the status quo with topicslike adolescent sexuality. It is frightening to parents and teachers. The most notorious [for censoring books] was the Third Reich. Theywere big into burning books, especially Jewish works.”

“I think books that opposewhat we’re a part of or what westand for should be banned,”said Sarah Barker, junior, “likeanything pro-terrorism.”

“No content is too horrible toread,” agreed Emily Finck,sophomore, “we’ve seen worseon TV. My [high] school andlibrary were bad. I was supposedto read a book for a class, butbecause it was banned, thelibrary took it off of its shelvesand the school refused to teachit. I don’t know what my favoritebanned books are.” “Books should not be banned,”

said Gabby Herrera, freshman, “[they]teach us about the time period. Theauthor puts effort into their work andit is a slap in the face to ban theirbooks. Every book is informing. Thereshouldn’t be anything we aren’tallowed to publish in them.”

“Books are learningtools,” said JasmineCharlton, sophomore,“you just have to havethe right audience. In theBahamas, they don’t banbooks. In America, Idon’t know if books arebanned or just not onsale.”

“I’m not sure if any bookswere banned [at my] highschool,” said AsiaMuhammad, sophomore. “Idon’t know if it is a bannedbook, but I liked Piece ofCake by Cupcake Brown. Itmight be, there was a lot ofgraphic violence and drugabuse in it.”

This past Saturday,Sept. 28, the men’ssoccer team facedEckerd College. It wasalso the LeukemiaAwareness Night.Eckerd College has anoverall record of twowins, three losses, andtwo ties. The teamknew that theiropponents would be abit of a challenge, butthey had no fear. TheUniversity had arecord of 4-1. Afterslaughtering Eckerd,the men’s teamincreased their overallrecord to 5-1.

The weather was

rainy and made theground slippery. Inthese conditions, SaintLeo Men’s team knowshow to switch up theirplaying and reallybring out theirtechnique. Within thefirst six minutes,Schultze-Geisthovelmade the first score,and he made thesecond score aroundthe fortieth.

From halftimeuntil the end of thegame, the night skycleared up. This leftthe field to stay wetand fast. The thirdgoal was made byBlanchette in thesecond half.

Although it startedout as a rainy night,

there was still a nicefan size supportingthe game. The men’steam loves having thesupport they get fromfellow peers to givethem an extra drive.It’s always good tohave a solid supportgroup cheering theplayers on to see thattheir peers care aboutthem.

They played theball fast with flawlesspasses and worked asa team. MattCampbell shot thefinal goal afterreentering the gamejust minutes before.Saint Leo won four tonothing.

The team functionsas a well-oiled

machine and fightstronger then Spartanwarriors at war. Theywork hard whetherthey are on or off theball to finish theirchances. Anytime youplay fast and create alot of chances it makesit near impossible fora team to defend.

Having a record of5-1 these players areshowing theirpotential to dominatethe conference andbring home the cup.

The women's teamkicked off around5p.m. just before themen's team played.One player clearlystood out-ArielleKabangu stepped up.Only a freshman,
