Provo council approves funds
to preserve historic buildings
B y J O R D A N L E E
The Provo Municipal Council has
approved $150,000 to be given to a fund
for the Historical Rehabilitation and
Preservation Grant program.
Joshua Yost, historic preservation
planner at Provo City, said there are
some conditions buildings must meet
before they can be classied as a his-
toric building ready for preservation.
They must be located within the
ofcial boundaries of Provo City, Yost
said. Each building must be ... at least
50 years old and retains its historic
integrity, in that there are no major
alterations or additions that have
obscured or destroyed the signicant
historic features.
The building also has to be registered
on the National Register of Historic Places.
There are many positives to restoring
a historic building.
There is special consideration in
the granting of zoning variances or
conditional use permits, eligibility
for nancial assistance from the city,
special considerations and waiving of
certain building code requirements for
property rehabilitation, assistance for
National Register nomination and sub-
sequent eligibility for state and federal
tax credits and other grants, Yost said.
Greg Soter, a real estate agent, has
had success ever since he designed
and constructed Parkside Apartments
15 years ago. Last year he wanted to
branch out, and when he saw an old LDS
chapel for sale, he jumped at the chance
to purchase it.
When I saw that the old Provo
Fourth Ward chapel was for sale, the
idea quickly clicked in my mind that
someone needed to make certain that
the exterior of that beautiful, stately old
building was preserved and that it could
be a very attractive place in which to
create some very unusual, even more
upscale, apartments that would be
very appealing to the upper portion of
the target audience we already serve at
Parkside, Soter said.
The chapel, located at 400 N. 100 West,
is to become 15 single-bedroom apart-
ments, Soter said, and although he
wont live there he is guring out how
to design some really killer interior
space while most efciently (using) the
existing layout of the building.
After purchasing the chapel, Soter
was met with huge necessary fees in
the preservation of the chapels his-
toric structure totaling $71,000. These
fees can now be covered because of the
recent resolution passed by the council.
The Provo Municipal Council
recently made it more feasible to restore
historic buildings by providing some
nancial assistance for the payment of
city impact fees, which were hindering
my ability to move forward with our
planned renovation. Soter said.
Richard Gregory, Managing Partner
at Provo Town Square LLC, also said
these new funds will have a positive
impact on the city. The city restruc-
tured the grant program to allow for
a smaller up-front match from owners
and allowed for the matching funds to
be spent on the interior of the build-
ings, Gregory said. That was a game-
changer for us at Provo Town Square.
It allowed us to spend money on the
interior to attract tenants and bet-
ter income, while still improving the
facades for the betterment of the entire
downtown.
Old buildings are like old people;
they should be valued and cherished.
They have wisdom and experience.
Buildings record the passage of time,
and they provide a physical link to our
cultural history. As such, I love to see
historic buildings restored and used
productively. But old buildings should
be a major priority in the redevelop-
ment of this downtown community
and a major consideration in future
planning.
Some may not see older build-
ings as signicant, but Gregory said
they are benecial edices in need of
acknowledgment.
We all benet from their history and
their beauty, Gregory said. We greatly
appreciate the help and support from
the city, the federal government and,
most of all, from the community.

Mitt Romney, circled on right, was president of the Cougar Club during his time at BYU. The Cougar Club carried on the tradi-
tion of building the image of BYU through promotion of athletic, cultural and academic programs.
B y K A T I E C L A R K
Before Bain Capital, the Olym-
pics and a bid to become president
of the United States, Mitt Romney
displayed exemplary business and
leadership skills as an undergradu-
ate at Brigham Young University.
The Cougar Club
Romney did not have a desire to
be in student government when he
rst started at BYU in 1969. After
seeing his fathers unsuccessful
presidential bid, and his mothers
unsuccessful U.S. Senate run, it
just wasnt something he wanted
to be involved in. However, after
receiving encouragement from
family, Romney got involved with
the Cougar Club, the university
booster club. Dane McBride, a for-
mer LDS missionary companion of
Romneys and member of the Cou-
gar Club in 1969, said that Romney
eventually ran for president of
the club, won, and made some big
changes.
When Romney took over the
reigns of the Cougar Club (a ser-
vice club with 30 to 50 members
at the time), it was raising $10,000
to $12,000 a year, McBride said.
Romney said the club should try
and raise $100,000.
When Romney suggested
this, many of the members were
perplexed.
You could see peoples faces
blanch a little bit, McBride said.
They said, You can only do so
many luaus a year and sell so many
mumus.
Romney had a different idea. He
wanted to approach the adminis-
tration at BYU to see if it was pos-
sible to get contact information for
everyone that had been at BYU. He
also wanted to set up phone banks,
call everyone who had matricu-
lated and ask for donations for the
club. With the changes that Rom-
ney spearheaded, the Cougar Club
reached its goal of raising $100,000
in one year.
McBride described this as being
one of the highlights of his time
in the Cougar Club. He remem-
bered Romney told the members
that this was something that when
they were old, 40 years old, they
would be able to remember that as
a team, they accomplished some-
thing great that would have a long-
lasting effect.
That was one of the neat things
about his leadership then and
now. There was always a feeling
that we were on a team with him,
McBride said. He was the leader of
the team, but he considered them
his teammates. I recently visited
behind the scenes with some of his
leadership team, and it was obvi-
ous that they are a team. Mitt is just
such a team builder. Thats how he
got things done in Massachusetts
and in the Olympics. Students that
werent even members of the Cou-
gar Club that made phone calls felt
the team spirit too. It has been a
part of his style for a long time.

The common stereotype of BYU marriage
statistics may not be as true as some think.
The REAL BYU marriage stats
At a privately owned LDS university where
students are encouraged to get married, some
BYU students feel pressure from marital
expectations.
Stereotypes exist stating searching for an
eternal companion is the real reason people
choose to attend BYU. It is a common assump-
tion that going to BYU ensures that not only will
you nd the perfect major for you you will
also nd that special someone. .

Provo hopes to eliminate train horns
Quiet zones
make their
way to Provo
B y J O R D A N L E E
The loud sound of train horns
in Provo could soon be stopped.
The City of Lehi is spearhead-
ing an application that will
make quiet zones that will reach
Provo.
Utah already has ve quiet
zones in place in Salt Lake,
Midvale, West Jordan, Pleasant
View and Woods Cross.
At every intersection trains
come to, they are required to
sound the horn as a warning to
other commuters that they are
approaching. While the sound
is irritating for motorists, resi-
dents in the surrounding neigh-
borhoods hear it most often.
Gerry Carpenter, Utah Transit
Authority spokesman said when
the trains come to Provo, the
horns will blare up to 80 times
a day.
While the noise is unpleasant,
Carpenter said it is for safety
purposes.
In order to qualify for a
quiet zone, a stretch of rail-
road track must have improve-
ments made to the railroad
crossings to bring the cross-
ings to an equivalent or better
level of safety than that which
existed prior to the applica-
tion for quiet zone status,
Carpenter said.
In other words, if you take
away the horns, you have to
replace them with other safety
measures that take their place.
As part of the FrontRunner proj-
ect, UTA upgraded all railroad
crossings from Salt Lake City to
Provo to include gates, bells and
ashing lights. Raised cement
medians were also installed in
roadways to prevent motorists
from going around the crossing
gates when they are in the down
position.
UTA has also been working
hard to add special measures to
these new Trax stations.
UTA also added supplemen-
tal pedestrian treatments to all
crossings to slow pedestrian/
bike traffic and encourage
pedestrians or cyclists to look
both ways prior to crossing the
track, Carpenter said. These
safety improvements have
enabled the cities along the line
to work together for quiet zone
status.
Provo resident Colby Goettel
has lived through the endless
hours of trains honking.
My family lived 100 meters
from the train crossing, Goet-
tel said. The trains were
required to honk their horns
before crossing even in the
middle of the night. This was
only a problem for the rst few
nights; after that, the body
adjusts.
Although he adjusted, Goet-
tel said, If proper precautions
are being taken, like barriers
or lights, then it is redundant
to require trains to honk
before proceeding through an
intersection.
Lisa Rowley drives around
Provo constantly and believes
the safety precautions used to
counter the non-use of the horns
cancel out the need to honk. If
there are rails and lights, then
they dont need to honk, Row-
ley said.
Rowley said she likes the
sound of a trains horn but
admits it gets annoying fast.
While residents and motorists
alike would like the quiet zones
to be put in place as quickly as
possible, the timing is at the
discretion of the Federal Rail-
road Administration, Carpen-
ter said.
Giving the boot to towing and booting
B y C O D Y E D D I N G T O N
The heated topic of predatory
booting and towing in Provo
was brought before the city
council Tuesday Oct. 16 after
Mayor John Curtis requested
a review of what he says has
been bugging me for years.
Two types of towing were
addressed during the meeting:
nonconsent police generated
tows, or impound tows, and
nonconsent non-police-gener-
ated tows.
The nonconsent non-police-
generated tows received the
majority of the attention from
the council.
The issue exploded into a
frenzy of hundreds of emails
and posts, and tens of thousands
of views on the mayors blog
when Mayor Curtis publicly
requested detailed stories
with a purpose to compile a
record of the unfair practices.
Ive heard enough to believe
that some booting and tow-
ing companies are predatory
in nature and take advantage
of students and visitors, he
wrote. To be clear, this does
not include legitimate compa-
nies that offer towing services.
Im talking about those bad guys
who lurk around waiting to
jump on a vehicle left 30 seconds
to run a plate of brownies to a
sick friend. Instead of nding a
$15 parking ticket, (the drivers)
nd their car across town with
a bill over $250.
An hour before the meeting,
the mayor compiled a packet full
of emails and comments on his
blog.
The single largest category,
the mayor said, I left my car for
only a few minutes category.
He gave multiple examples,
one being, I was taking my
friend home from the hospital
on crutches and I wanted to
help him up to his apartment.
I walked up to the apartment
and by the time I got back, my
car was being towed.
The mayor also commented
in regards to predator tow com-
panies taking advantage of all
the dating that goes on in Provo.
It seems like every young
man who goes out on a date,
and wants to walk his date to
the door, turns around and his
car is being towed, Curtis said.
Excuses included: I know I
shouldnt have parked there,
I was there for a nano second
and another with a 30 minute
visitor parking time window,
I was there for 27 minutes and
was towed.
The meeting closed on the
issue with a motion for the
council to gather together rec-
ommendations for the state
and put together legislation for
landowners, tow companies and
those who are towed.
This is such a big issue. All
of us would like to solve it.
Mayor Curtis said.
He continued to say that it is
a very complex issue and will
take multiple legislative ses-
sions and some volunteer work
for this problem to be solved.
Im glad so many people
are engaged in contacting me,
Mayor Curtis said. I hope that
they continue to contact me and
I hope they are patient with us.

ROMNEY
Presidential
candidate has
roots at BYU
Continued from Page 1
At a time in history when riots
were common at other universi-
ties, Romney wanted something
different to be said of BYU. He
felt this would happen by rally-
ing together students from across
campus to raise the money.
This is significant, espe-
cially for the period of time this
took place, McBride said. At
other universities, serious cam-
pus leaders did things like take
over the presidents ofce and
ransack it, or blow up the ROTC
building. This wasnt happening
at BYU.
Romney as a student
Romney didnt spend all
his time studying and raising
money. He was also married,
to high school sweetheart Ann
Davies, and enjoyed spending
time with friends. During the
summer, he and his friends
would often go to Utah Lake to
water ski.
He is an exceptionally good
water skier, McBride said. It
wasnt his boat, but he was able
to nd one for us to go out on. He
taught me how to water ski.
Romney frequented BYU
football and basketball games
as well as the weekly campus
devotionals. He always really
looked forward to hearing the
brethren of the Church speak,
McBride said.
Many college students spend
their summers selling door to
door. Romney was no differ-
ent. One summer he headed to
Michigan to sell cordless micro-
phones, along with McBride
and a few others. They went
with hopes of making enough
money to support themselves
through school. Things turned
out differently.
We fell short of our goals,
though it wasnt because
we werent doing the right
things, McBride said. The
product wasnt very well made,
so we werent able to sell it
very well.
The men ended up making a
few thousand dollars between
them, a much smaller amount
than what they anticipated.
Luckily, being in Michigan,
they were able to visit Rom-
neys mother-in-laws house.
She made sure they were well
fed.
Living on love
Despite being the son of a
wealthy governor, Mitt and Ann
lived as most newlyweds in col-
lege did back then, McBride said.
I never saw any ostentation
or big spending by Ann and
Mitt, McBride said. His father
told him, When you get married,
you need to support your family.
He lived very modestly.
McBride said that he lived
in the same complex as the
Romneys and moved into their
apartment after they left BYU.
For about $75 a month, the
apartment had two rooms,
a tiny kitchen and a small
bathroom.
They were i n a
semi-subterranean apartment
because it was $10 less a month
than the above-ground apart-
ments, McBride said. It is
probably what most married
students would not choose to
live in today. It had brown lino-
leum oors. A lot of the tiles
were cracked. The kitchen had
barely enough room for a small
table to eat breakfast at.
McBride reflected on how
he and his wife often would
have dinner with the Romneys.
Instead of going out to eat, they
would combine what they had
in their pantries for a meal. If
one of the couples had spaghetti
noodles and tomatoes, and the
others had hamburger and let-
tuce, they would eat a spaghetti
dinner that night.
Even though Romney was
busy being a husband, presi-
dent of the Cougar Club and
a student, he still spent time
serving others. As a counselor
in his congregations bish-
opric, Romney was in charge
of helping with the spiritual
and temporal affairs of the
members of that ward. For any-
one, this would be a difficult
task, but McBride said that
Romney did a great job, even
after the arrival of his first-
born son, Taggart, a year after
he and Ann were married. Tag-
gart slept in a crib at the foot
of their bed because the apart-
ment wasnt big enough for
anything else.
Being young, married, and
in college with a child is not an
easy task. Romney didnt com-
plain. In an interview with the
Washington Post, Clayton F.
Foulger, Romneys friend, said
that Romney promoted married
life.
I remember Mitt explaining
to me the benets of married
life, Foulger said. He didnt
have to explain a lot. It was sort
of self-evident, but he was appre-
ciative of it.
How others view Romney
Fellow Cougar Club member
Tristan Pico recalls the rst
time he saw Romney.
He had dark hair, of course.
We all had hair back then. He
still does; I do not. Mitt and Ann
were together. I just remember
being, one, impressed by how
striking they were as a couple,
and then, two, by how nice they
were. They were very cordial
when I rst met them.
Even after many years had
passed, Pico was surprised that
Romney recognized him at an
event held in Beverly Hills and
stated that Romney was the
same person he had known in
college.
There were probably 100 peo-
ple, and Mitt gave a speech in the
back park at night, Pico said.
He stood on the patio and spoke
to this relatively small group of
people. And afterwards, I went
up and said to hello to him. I said,
Mitt, hi, Im Tristan. And he
goes Oh, I remember, from Cou-
gar Club! I mean, he was just so
quick, it was amazing. And then
I saw Ann, and I went over and
talked to her, and my wife and I
spent some time with her. It was a
little bit like just stepping into the
past because he was the same per-
son, and he and Ann both acted in
the same way.
Pico said that the way Romney
is often portrayed doesnt show
an accurate picture of who he
really is.
It seems to be that he is being
made out to be citizen plastic,
and I think that sounds like
a decision somebody made to
characterize him as that, Pico
said. Whenever Ive heard him
speak, he has been sincere and
direct but also cordial and acces-
sible. So I think that character-
ization of him being anything
but that is done more for politi-
cal reasons than it is to describe
him in reality.
Romneys personality and
leadership skills convinced
many of those who knew him
from the time he was at BYU to
say that he could be president
of the United States one day,
although he may not have admit-
ted it himself.
I felt way back then that if
he did not become president
of the United States, this coun-
try would be cheated, McBride
said. I told others this but never
him because I knew he would
not like such conversation. He
had seen both his father and his
mother trashed in political cam-
paigns and was not interested in
pursuing (politics).
David Whetten, vice president
of the Cougar Club when Romney
was club president, described to
The Universe how he and others
saw Romney.
Mitt seemed destined for
greatness, said Whetten. I
dont think anyone who knew
Mitt back then is surprised by
any of his achievements after he
was at BYU.
McBride said that Romney
has always been a hound for
data and information, that he
works with others to learn about
other viewpoints and that he has
always been that way.
He studies things out
extremely well, McBride said.
He absorbs it well. He develops
ideas and teamwork and coun-
sels. He has a high degree of
respect for people. He respects
ideas. He wants to hear every
side of a disagreement. Develop-
ing ideas by counseling together

FASHION
BYU student
making her way
into fashion
industry
Continued from Page 13
BYUs family and consumer sci-
ence major within the School of
Family Life, said the textile and
sewing classes offered through
the school were time intensive
and informative.
I took a class where you
learned how different fabrics
burn, how they wear, how they
deal with moisture, and the
best types to use for projects,
Schow said. The class was
very time consuming in terms
of studying. I have to say it was
the hardest class I took at BYU
in my major.
Although there is no set fash-
ion program, Lake has taken
her skills and decided to put on
a fashion show next semester
in February. She recruited 13
designers and numerous stu-
dent models. BYUSA has helped
Lake in her planning for the
fashion show.
Abraham Kim, a senior from
Sandy, working for the activi-
ties department at BYUSA,
said Lake had her fashion
show approved through the
student choice activity pro-
cess. Kim said the process con-
sists of students bringing an
idea to BYUSA and waiting for
approval.
Its a blank slate where stu-
dents come and have their ideas
come to life, Abraham said.
Kim said the student choice
activities are a means to get stu-
dents involved and creatively
execute events.
Back at the sewing machine,
Lake methodically runs her
fabric through the needle and
thread. While clothing design
may seem trivial to some, Lake
said she believes our outward
appearance projects who we are
and what we stand for.
One of my favorite quotes is
from Mark Twain, and he says,
Clothes make the man. Naked
people have little or no inu-
ence on society, Lake said.
In the future, she plans on
forming her own fashion acad-
emy where all can come and
learn sewing, design, photog-
raphy and other aspects of the
fashion industry. Lake said she
wants to design modest clothes
for everyone.
Because I have had so many
opportunities placed in my life,
it would be ungrateful to design
something immodest, Lake
said. I really feel like since
God has given me these oppor-
tunities that I need to follow his
standards.
ART
Students BYU art
experience makes
them unique
Continued from Page 13
very professional and it was
all about art and form and
about grace and beauty.
Secrist, who modeled for two
semesters for a sculpture class
and a gure drawing class, said
that she was able to choose what
she wore as a model, and she wore
a bikini.
You werent forced to wear
anything super see through or
really uncomfortable or anything
that made you feel uncomfort-
able, she said.
Secrist explained how visual
art students can still learn all
about the human gure without
using a nude models.
For some people, its less dis-
tracting because you are focused
on angles and body parts instead
of certain body parts, she said.
Daniel Barney, an art educa-
tion professor at BYU and pro-
fessional artist, researcher and
educator, described censoring as
not just a result of the Honor Code.
I think that art is not moni-
tored so severely because I think
students and faculty do that on
their own, Barney said. Were
really good at self-censoring, and
I think thats a good thing.
Barney pointed out
that although graphic imagery
is part of many other art insti-
tutions, the art students at BYU
choose to self-censor.
I cant imagine my students
ever wanting to deal with those
kinds of images, and if they did, I
think they understand that this is
not the venue to do that, he said.
They would go somewhere else
if they were interested in certain
kinds of images.
Barney also explained that
employers might appreciate stu-
dents that are able to self-censor
artwork for specic venues and
audiences.
While its important to have
diversity in a community, theres
still a lot of expectations for teach-
ers, he said. People who hire
teachers from our program know
that were able to be self-censored.
I think students need to under-
stand that as an artist, there are
different places to exhibit their
work and different audiences. Not
all work would be appropriate for
every audience. We need to work
within specic expectations. We
censor ourselves.
Eric Smith, from Orland Park,
Ill., studying pre-animation,
explained that even though he is
not a member of The Church of
Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints,
he chose to study art at BYU as
opposed to other schools around
the nation.
BYUs animation program is
top notch, he said. Its third in
the nation. Pixar and Disney and
Dreamworks know good students
come out of that, so they always
recruit from our school.
Smith commented that art stu-
dents go into the program with
open eyes, knowing the diverse
subject material in art.
If youre in art, you have to
know that everything is not going
to be censored for you, he said.
You have to know that youre
going to come across some things
that youre not going to agree
with. Youre going to have to get
used to that.
FILTERING
Finding the balance
between protection
and hinderance
Continued from Page 13
standards, but liberal enough
to allow me to utilize and enjoy
the Internet as much as I need or
want.
Huber said that students need
to be proactive and responsible
with their Internet consumption.
The lter prevents the view-
ing of a good amount of inap-
propriate sites, Huber said.
However, it doesnt fully protect
BYU students if one is fully set on
doing things he or she shouldnt.
I admit that I have seen one or
two students on campus com-
puters viewing pornography.
Those who are set on hurting
themselves through inappropri-
ate Internet use will probably
always nd a way to do so.
For some students, however,
the lter is a source of frustra-
tion. If a student is not logged in
to the secure network, the lter
can cause other issues like mis-
directed pages and inability
to access approved sites. John
Carter, a mechanical engineer-
ing student, is frequently frus-
trated by these misdirections.
The thing that annoys me
is if you try to go to most web-
sites before you have signed in,
it does not take you to the secure
network sign-in page like it used
to, said Carter, a sophomore
from Idaho. Instead, a strange
red screen comes up saying that
this is probably not the site you
are looking for, and there is a
suspicious-looking red slash
through the URL. Its annoying.
Brian Buckner, a junior
majoring in exercise science,
thinks that the lter is extreme.
I dislike the lter at BYU
because it takes me longer than
necessary to nd the things
that I need, Buckner said. If I
search for something and Im not
specic, it will block it because
there is one thing that is consid-
ered inappropriate even though
there are thousands of things
that are appropriate.
Shelby Peterson, a masters
student studying information
systems, believes that the l-
ter is consistent with the val-
ues BYU espouses; but he also
sees the need to evaluate sites
individually.
I think a lter is nice so you
dont get porn or obviously mali-
cious stuff coming up in your
browser accidentally while
youre surfing the Internet,
Peterson said. For an organiza-
tion like BYU that promotes hon-
orable behavior, a lter seems
helpful. However, if there is a
grad student who is research-
ing cures for breast cancer, they
need to have access to materials
that the automatic lter blocks.
For those people who have a
valid reason to look up blocked
content, they can get permission
to override the lter.
Kirk Sanford, the director of
network solutions in the Ofce
of Information Technology, said
that the lter blocks more than
just inappropriate material.
In OIT, we have multiple lev-
els of security, and the web l-
ter is just one of them, Sanford
said. There are dozens of things
you can (lter), and we use six or
seven of those things, like gam-
bling, pornography, malware,
illegal content and sites that
have known malicious content
on them.
There are times when the l-
ter blocks a website or program
that should not be blocked or that
students need access to for aca-
demic purposes.
When this happens, anyone
can submit a ticket to have the
site reviewed. Because anyone
can ask to have a site reviewed,
Sanford believes that keeping
the lter updated and relevant
is up to the campus commu-
nity. This attitude has led the
university to create a website,
besafe.byu.edu., to help educate
students on how to avoid damag-
ing content.
First thing, be aware, San-
ford said. We need to recognize
that there are multiple threats.
Students should also be proac-
tive in having their own lters
and virus scanners. Be respon-
sible, have integrity. Students
should also be responsible and
help each other know what to
look out for.

Students show some flare with leopard and floral print pants
The BYU student body is staying
fierce with loud fashion statements
B y L A U R E N M O R A N
Some BYU students are
embracing their youth with wild
pants suited for a zoo.
Whether it be leopard or o-
ral print, students say the recent
fall trend of patterned pants is
livening up their wardrobe
before the dark and dreary win-
ter sets in.
Keyla Rodriguez, a 21-year-old
from Gilbert, Ariz., majoring in
graphic design, owns a pair of
gray, leopard print pants. Rodri-
guez said her closet needed a
face lift and leopard print was a
creative alternative to her origi-
nal denim option.
For the past couple years,
jeans have been the common
thing to wear, Rodriguez said.
Now, it is fun to change things
up, like wearing leopard print
pants. People are getting cre-
ative with their outts.
Rodriguez wears her leopard
pants for fun. She said they work
well with boots in the winter
and are lively enough for sum-
mer. Rodriguez said she believes
now is the time for students to
get a little crazy with their
fashion.
We are students, so now is
the time to wear fun and crazy
things, she said. I mean, why
not wear leopard print pants?
For Rodriguez, the subtle
grey leopard is enough of a
fashion statement. She said she
thinks some oral print pants
are a little out there.
Taylor Veater, a senior from
Coarsegold, Calif., majoring
in business marketing, enjoys
wearing her oral print pants.
She also owns a pair of leopard
print leggings. Veater said the
ower pants were a necessary
purchase, adding variation to
her wardrobe. She owns two o-
ral patterned pants, a white pair
with a large ower and a gray
pair with owers subtly placed
everywhere.
For me, I have a lot of plain
shirts and it is fun to pair these
pants with them, Veater said.
Similar to Rodriguez, Veater
said she believes these pants are
a form of expression.
It is just one more way for
people to individualize them-
selves and express who they
are, she said. Anything worn
with condence can be worn
well.
Veater wears her pants as
everyday attire. She wore them
as an EFY counselor and to
school. While she enjoys wear-
ing these fun pants, Veater has
no plans on purchasing more.
I dont wear them a lot
because they are bold, she said.
I think two pairs is the maxi-
mum for what I like wearing.
Kirk Fong, a senior from
Honolulu, Hawaii, majoring in
city planning, does not wear
leopard or oral print pants, but
he does wear surf shorts with
various prints and designs to
campus. Most of his surf shorts
depict a tropical setting.
In Hawaii, anything goes,
Fong said. You can wear surf
shorts to the movies or to the
mall. It is kind of like dressing
up when you have a nice pair of
swim shorts on. You can wear
them anywhere, just not your
wedding.
Fong said they are comfort-
able, but make him stand out.
Here on the mainland, in
Provo, I feel out of place, he
said. People will ask, Oh, are
you going to go swimming? And
I am not.
As far as oral print pants,
Fong does not care what people
wear.
Some people focus too much
on the outside person, rather
than the inside person, he said.
BYU students art
gains popularity, finds
financial footing
Jed Henry, BYU animation grad, raised over $300,000
on Kickstarter for his Ukiyo-e Heroes project
B y L I N D S E Y W I L L I A M S
Mario has traveled back in
time to the 19th century in a new
artistic project, Ukiyo-e Heroes.
Jed Henry, a recent gradu-
ate of BYU, and David Bull, an
artist specializing in Japanese
woodblocks, recently raised over
$300,000 on the website Kick-
starter for Ukiyo-e Heroes.
For the project, Henry took
three of his loves Japan, video
games and illustration and
merged them together. He took
popular video game characters
including Mario, Pikachu, Kirby
and Samus and incorporated
them into the Japanese wood-
block style.
I wanted to make a move that
would fulll me artistically but
also something that people would
want to buy, Henry said. As an
artist, I can share all these differ-
ent parts of myself, but as an art-
ist who likes to eat, I want to share
the parts of myself that people
care about.
Henry set his goal on Kick-
starter as $10,400, but he said he
hoped for at least $200,000. His
hopes were exceeded when he
raised $313,341. Henry attrib-
uted part of the success to using
already popular video game char-
acters in his art.
Were riding the trail of what
these video games have already
done in terms of popularity and
exposure, but it was not a bad
move, Henry said. I wanted as
many people to like it as possible.
So Im glad a lot of people did, but
you never know because even if
you plan something to be success-
ful, thats no guarantee.
Ukiyo-e Heroes draws ele-
ments from the 19th-century
woodblock print movement in
Japan. Ukiyo-e literally means
pictures of the oating world.
The woodblock print movement
emphasized symbolism over nat-
uralism and incorporated ele-
ments of pop culture. Often the
subjects were famous celebrities
or popular ctional characters.
The process of creating a new
woodblock design begins with a
lot of research, Henry said. After
doing research, Henry does the
line work with a real Japanese
pen. He then adds color in Pho-
toshop. When the design is com-
plete, it is sent to David Bull, who
does the woodblock print. Bull
has been running a woodblock
print business in Japan for many
years.
Jack Stoneman, an assistant
professor of Japanese at BYU,
also aided in the project. Henry
was a student in Stonemans class.
The idea of the project excited
Stoneman.
When Jed rst told me about
it, I just knew it would be a hit,
Stoneman said. I think he had
an idea too, that it would be very
popular. Its a great way to bring
Japanese culture into the gaming
world of the United States but also
reinvigorate Japanese woodblock
print culture. It goes both direc-
tions, which makes it a wonderful
project.
Stonemen did the calligraphy
for the wood prints. One of Hen-
rys pieces, Rickshaw Carts,
uses slightly altered Japanese
Kanji, a system of Japanese writ-
ing to convey a deeper meaning.
The rst characters spell Mario,
and the last character is the char-
acter for cart, but it is made up of
three carts.
The meaning of three is actu-
ally thunderous noise, so were
playing with the idea of the thun-
derous noise of many carts, but
we are also using it to convey the
idea of carts, Stoneman said.
Thats been one of my favorite
parts, manipulating the Japa-
nese in order to ll these labels
and inscriptions and names of
the video game characters with
all sorts of meaning.
Abby Grout, a junior studying
media arts, likes that Henry has
modernized a past art movement.
Hes going back to an older
art form and learning how to
do it, and I feel like that keeps it
alive, Grout said. The way that
he made the video game char-
acters t into the old style was
something I wasnt expecting.
They look completely different,
but the spirit is there.
Nathan Hardyman, an illus-
tration major from Rigby, Idaho,
nds Henrys idea inspiring.
He inspires me to follow my
passions, Hardyman said. He
is doing something that he loves.
The project itself is really beauti-
ful, and I think its a really cool
idea thats really original. Even
more than that, the coolest thing
is that hes taking his passions
and hes nding a way to combine
them to do something he is really
excited about. I think thats where
you get true success.

The corn maze craze
B y R Y A N G R AY
Brett Herbst, BYU grad
and founder of the MAiZE,
the worlds largest corn maze
family, lives his life by advice
he received long ago.
My grandma used to always
say, If you think about any-
thing too long, youll probably
never do it, Herbst said.
After Herbst graduated from
BYU in 1995, he decided to fol-
low his grandmothers advice
and build something he had
thought about for awhile. I
read about a man in Pennsylva-
nia who made a corn maze, and
I thought it would be a great
idea to bring here to Happy Val-
ley, Utah. I rented a piece of land
from a man in American Fork
and started my rst corn maze
in 1996.
This maze was the largest
corn maze created in the west-
ern United States and drew
in more than 18,000 people in
its rst three weeks. After this
great success, Herbst began The
MAiZE. Currently, his company
makes more than 250 mazes a
year in the U.S., Canada and
Europe.
What started out as one corn
maze has grown to more than
ve here in Utah Valley. Some
mazes are scary; some are for
children. Some are large, and
some are small. With a variety
of choices, there is something
for everyone.
I love haunted corn mazes
because you get scared and
youre also lost, Zoe Peterson,
a 19-year-old freshman from
Provo said. Its a fun activity
because you learn a lot about
your friends when they are lost
and cannot get out. One of my
friends actually cries in corn
mazes, which makes it even
more fun.
Other people prefer a more
traditional corn maze.
The big appeal of a corn
maze for me is its not a haunted
house, Garrett Edmonds, a
24-year-old senior from St.
George said. Im not a fan of
haunted houses. A corn maze
is better because its something
you can do with your friends,
its great for a date night activ-
ity and its one of the best things
to do during the fall season.
No matter what type of corn
maze it is, people are attracted
by the sense of adventure they
will have while wandering
through the maze.
There is something about
wandering around lost, Jeri
Allphin, senior director of
Alumni Relations at UVU,
said. The corn is anywhere
from six to eight feet tall, and
youre disoriented, but youre
also in a safe environment. Its
a brain puzzle in a giant arena.
Together with other UVU
faculty, Allphin created a spe-
cial corn maze in Payson. This
maze is a collaboration between
UVU, the city of Payson and a
local farmer to provide scholar-
ships for local Payson residents
to attend UVU. The project has
been operating successfully for
two years.
We ended up with enough
funds from the corn maze last
year to give out two full scholar-
ships, which, for our rst year,
was really good, Allphin said.
This years design of the maze
is the UVU logo. Although the
designs differ depending on
which maze you attend, the pro-
cess is all the same.
Its all designed on a com-
puter, said Logan Bench,
supervisor at CornBellys.
When we implement the design
on a eld, we usually do it when
the corn is still short. We print
out the blue prints and then it is
just like a giant game of connect
the dots, where we hand-cut
each corn stalk. It takes a lot of
hard work and skill.
This hard work pays off
because of the countless people
who attend corn mazes every
year to see something unique.
The truth is, there is nothing
like corn mazes, Herbst said.

It is a familiar scene at many
restaurant tables: patrons laugh
and joke after nishing a meal
only to face terrifying silence as
the waiter discreetly drops off
the bill.
Reviewing the numbers only
makes the buzz-kill worse as
consumers count and second-
guess the prices presented to
them.
Restaurants have been in
business since ancient times. It
is a competitive industry, and
the eating establishments that
stay in business have learned
their numbers well. Built into
the dining experience are
attractive menu designs, appe-
tizing photographs, waiters
with good selling techniques
and several courses of dining
to navigate.
Eating out at a restaurant can
be a costly experience if con-
sumers arent careful. However,
there are many ways to ensure
that the check at the end of the
bill doesnt make your checks
bounce.
Rob York, a video editor at
BYU Broadcasting, is passion-
ate about food and knows how to
be sensible with his budget. My
wife and I usually just order a
dish and share, York said. I
mean, you dont go home with
leftovers, but you definitely
get plenty for your meal at the
restaurant.
Playing portion size correctly
can be key to eating out right.
Besides saving money by not
buying an excessive amount of
food, the bill can stay low and
the possibility of overeating
diminishes.
Social pressures can add to
the frequency of dining-out
experiences. Mary Fulton is
studying English teaching and
is among students who may
regret being pressured into
spending money by well-mean-
ing friends and associates.
I usually go out and regret
it later because I spend way too
much, Fulton said.
As a result of dining out so
often, Fulton has adopted her
own methods of keeping prices
down.
At the restaurant I drink
water, Fulton said. Usually
sandwiches are cheaper items
on the menu, so if I stick with
those I dont spend too much.
While navigating the menu
carefully can be helpful, there
are also ways to literally pay
less for the food. There are sev-
eral deal sites online that focus
on getting users deals on dining
locally, like Groupon or Living
Social.
There are also sites online,
like Restaurant.com, that sell
discounted gift certicates to
restaurants.
Many restaurants have deals
built into their marketing cam-
paigns. By providing an email
newsletter or a text program,
many restaurants, like Happy
Sumo, offer monthly offers
exclusive to their subscribers.
The most important thing
to remember when eating out,
however, may be to simply plan
ahead. By becoming familiar
with the menu and price range
of the restaurant beforehand,
it can be easier to make wise
choices when everyone is wait-
ing for you to order.
Im not surprised when the
bill comes, said Colin King, a
senior studying photography. I
dont go and eat if I cant afford
it. When I do eat out, its a spe-
cial thing. I have the money
saved up before. I sometimes
will look up the menu online
before so I know how much
things cost. We just plan ahead,
Dave Ramsey style.

Hollywood favors
Democrat donations
B y J A C O B R O B E R T S
A new study by the Cen-
ter for Responsive Politics
has re-affirmed the popular
conception that the enter-
tainment industry leans left.
The study found that enter-
tainment industry work-
ers within the seven major
media conglomerates
Comcast, Disney, News
Corp., Time Warner, CBS,
Viacom and Sony gave
Democrats more than $4 mil-
lion and Republicans a mere
$711,000 between January
and July 2012.
Hal Heaton, professor of
finance at BYUs Marriott
School, said these numbers
dont surprise him. I think
every industry establishes
a culture, Heaton said in
an email. Over time, those
who are uncomfortable with
the culture leave it, and those
who are comfortable come.
This happens to be the cul-
ture of the entertainment
and media industries.
Heaton said one danger-
ous effect of this is that
everyone gets their informa-
tion from these industries
who typically tilt left. Thus
the people who get their
information from them will
also tilt left.
Even though it can have
harmful effects on soci-
etys information distri-
bution, Heaton said there
are times when corporate-
sponsored political dona-
tions are acceptable, if
not a responsibility of a
particular business.
If regulations have a
significant impact on their
business, they have a right
and even an obligation to let
politicians know what those
decisions will cost the busi-
ness, Heaton said.
He believes that whether
donations are given privately
or through the corporation,
the employees and company
need to do whats best for the
business.
Tamara Masters, a profes-
sor of marketing at the Mar-
riott School, said this is more
than likely why the enter-
tainment industry gives so
much to Democrats. This
ref lects the understanding of
these workers and corporate
leaders that the Democrats
are more likely to fund the
arts, and thus it is in their
best interest to be sure there
is more funding thus more
jobs and entertainment,
Masters said in an email.
Masters says that business
firms look after their best
interests and back the indi-
vidual whom they believe
will give them the most
assistance in providing their
product or service.
Just as firms pay for mar-
ket information and product
development, etc., they may
choose to pay to assist a polit-
ical person or group that will
help their firm grow or at
least not hinder their ability
to do business, Masters said.
There could be more to the
industry favoring one party
over the other beyond busi-
ness purposes though.
Fi l m st udent Oscar
Jimenez, a native of New
Jersey, being a Democrat
on New Jersey is the cool
thing, while being Repub-
lican is frowned upon. Per-
haps the same stigma exists
in Hollywood.
While Jimenez doesnt
belong to any specific politi-
cal party, he says the most
important thing is standing
up for what you believe in.
You have to find a balance
to please everyone, but stay
true to what you believe in,
Jimenez said.

Dr. Syed Nabi, a doctor at the
Sleep Institute of Utah in Ogden,
treats individuals who have or
may have a sleep disorder.
You have to figure out where
[the symptoms] are coming
from, Nabi said. Its like a head-
ache.
Similar to a headache, the
symptoms could come from a
number of different stressors in
the persons life.
Dr. Nabi meets with his pa-
tients and asks them questions
about their symptoms. If he sus-
pects an issue with the patients
sleep, he will order a sleep study.
This study evaluates the person
while he or she is sleeping and
measures brain activity.
Jared Facer, a senior major-
ing in international studies at
BYU-Hawaii, has the most severe
form of sleep insomnia. Facer, of
San Clemente Calif., served as a
missionary in Colorado Springs,
Colo., where he received his diag-
nosis. According to doctors, his
insomnia was triggered by high
elevation. After staying awake
for seven days, he was honorably
released from his mission. Five
years later, doctors are still un-
able to help him sleep.
I sleep maybe six hours a
week, he said. My body func-
tions on about two hours of sleep
[a night]. Ive been on every type
of medication, but nothing will
work.
Since the time most people
spend sleeping is time Facer can
use to his advantage, he said he
tries to be productive.
I work a lot, he said. I do a
lot of pondering and scripture
reading. Isaiah is not as boring
as people told me it was.
Sara Michael, a junior major-
ing in public relations, also be-
lieves she has a sleep disorder,
though she has not been diag-
nosed.
A lot of times when Im sleep-
ing, I wake up and think my
dream is still happening, she
said. My dreams are really
crazy.
At times, she dreams a family
member is in danger or someone
dangerous is in her room. She
wakes up and acts how she would
if the event was happening, at
times creating a comical situation.
Michael said her vivid dreams
can affect her sleep because she
still thinks about them, even af-
ter she is awake and knows it was
a dream.
Sometimes [when I am dream-
ing] I want to stop the dream, but
I cant, she said.
To fall back asleep, she listens
to music or lies in bed quietly.
Michael believes her active
dreams could be caused by stress
because they often occur when
she is in a new environment or
with new people.
While these two students have
rather severe cases of sleep dis-
orders, many Americans have
problems sleeping, including
BYU students. Those experienc-
ing symptoms can receive help
on campus from Biofeedback
Services in the Wilkinson Stu-
dent Center.
Barbara Morrell is a clinical
professor at the Counseling and
Career Center and coordinator
of Stress Management and Bio-
feedback Services.
We use biofeedback to help
people become aware of stress in
the body and where theyre hold-
ing the stress and tension and
then to learn to relax it, she said.
While Biofeedback Services
does not treat diagnosed medical
conditions, it is designed to help
relieve stress and tension, often
alleviating common sleep disor-
der symptoms.
One of the ways that stress
impacts sleep is that our brain
waves are different speeds, de-
pending on what were doing,
Morrell said. Our brains are
fast for thinking and doing and
very slow for sleeping. If we are
stressed and our mind is racing,
it is very tough for our minds to
slow down enough to sleep.
Biofeedback Services focuses
on relaxation training. Anyone
seeking help with relaxation
techniques can either schedule
an appointment with Biofeed-
back Services or visit the web-
site, caps.byu.edu/biofeedback-
and-stress-management, where
downloadable relaxation re-
cordings are available as well
as information on ways to sleep
better.

What started as an idea for a
simple Christmas gift, turned
into something Harry Potter
fans around the world could
enjoy year round.
In 2008, with Christmas just
around the corner, Sara Anst-
ed, a BYU graduate, was strug-
gling to think of a present for
her sisters. Knowing their love
for Harry Potter, Ansted went
online to find affordable, au-
thentic looking wands, but was
disappointed to find the wands
cost more than $70.
Ansted decided to try her
hand at whittling and made her
own Harry Potter wands.
I got some wooden dowels
from the BYU Bookstore and
said to myself, Ok lets see what
happens, she said.
Two years after Ansted made
her first wands she decided to
sell them online. She made
a store on Etsy.com and was
pleasantly surprised to see
people all over the world want-
ed to buy her wands. The wands
cost up to $18 and have been
purchased by people in Brazil,
Spain, England, Australia, Po-
land, Canada and Italy.
Stacy Julin, Ansteds co-
worker in the circulation de-
partment at the Provo City Li-
brary, purchased The wands as
birthday presents for her three
sons. She was impressed by the
workmanship and price.
Each wand is unique and re-
ally authentic looking, Julin
said. Ive seen other wands for
sale at craft sales and farmers
markets, but they are priced
much higher, and I like Saras
Wands better. My kids just de-
scribe them as awesome.
Ansteds wands can be found
online by visiting Etsy.com
and searching Embershad-
eDragon.

Students with Provo in their
rearview mirror are missing out
during spring term.
The well-kept secret of spring
term is full of warm weather ac-
tivities, like river rafting and re-
cord-setting water balloon ghts,
that would be simply miserable in
the middle of December.
The worlds largest water bal-
loon ght in Summer 2010 was
hosted by BYUSA, BYUs student
service association, with almost
4,000 students and more than
120,000 water balloons.
While campus activities are
scaled down during spring term,
there is still plenty to do. Clubs
and other student groups, such as
the popular Laugh Out Loud com-
edy troupe, also hold activities. Be
sure to check the events calendar
on The Universe website for up-
dates and more information.
For those seeking a spiritual
boost, devotionals and forums
also continue during spring term.
Students who have purchased
an All Sport Pass and want to
watch a good sporting event can
enjoy baseball and softball games,
as well as tennis matches and
track and eld competitions.
Steven Leyland, a pre-business
major, said campus is less crowd-
ed during spring term, which is a
potential benet.
Campus is more freed up, Ley-
land said. There isnt all the foot
trafc where you cant get to class
on time because youre bumping
into people.
In a poll done by The Universe,
71 percent of students who partici-
pated said they do not take classes
during spring or summer terms.
Milanne Carpenter, a nursing
major, said even though classes
are hard, studying for nals is
easier because the course takes
place over a shorter period.
Although it was intense, a lot of
the teachers are pretty laid back,
Carpenter said. And I like that I
only have to remember material
from two months ago instead of
four months ago.
Another benet of being on cam-
pus during the summer months
is the weather. With warm spring
temperatures, many students en-
joy being outside to throw a fris-
bee around or just to take a break
between classes.
When youre coming out of
classes you can go sit on a bench
and it isnt cold, Leyland said.
David Bracero, a geography
major, summed up his favorite
things about spring term in one
sentence.
Smaller class sizes, not as
many credits, better parking and
good weather, Bracero said.
B y K R I S T A R O Y
There is a tarp tucked under the
bed, with a sleeping bag stacked on
top, seeming anxious and ready to
go.
Their owner, Kim Stevens, a se-
nior from Colorado Springs study-
ing mechanical engineering, puts
them to good use. Last summer she
set a goal to never spend Friday
night in her bed.
I was thinking of things I want-
ed to do that summer and realized
there was no reason I shouldnt be
camping every Friday night, she
said.
Stevens camping streak lasted
from the start of summer into
the Fridays of fall, and she even
camped during winter semester.
In January, my roommates and
I went to Goblin Valley thinking
we would get warm weather, but
it got down to three degrees Fahr-
enheit, Stevens said. We didnt
sleep much, but it was still fun.
Scott Jackson, a junior from Ev-
erett, Wash. studying mechanical
engineering, found inspiration in
Stevens weekend hobby.
Our group just went out and did
something no one else was doing,
and it didnt need to be planned,
he said.
Stevens agrees and said this
hobby teaches her to live off the
bare necessities.
I bring a tarp, sleeping bag,
sometimes a hammock and run-
ning shoes, Stevens said. Theres
nothing better than rolling out of
a sleeping bag and running in the
Saturday air when everyone else
in Provo is still sleeping in their
beds.
Stevens and her outdoorsy atti-
tude will keep her out of her bed
again every Friday night this sum-
mer.
Life is too short to spend it
sleeping in your bed, she said.

Weekly five: Haunted
house favorites
B y K A T E L Y N G U D E R I A N
With a plethora of haunted
houses to choose from, BYU
students weighed in on which
ones they love to visit. In no
particular order, here are
BYUs most-talked about
haunts.
1. The Haunted Forest,
American Fork
The Haunted Forest is
known for being the areas
largest outdoor haunt. Sans
walls and ceilings, with a gen-
erally less-controlled environ-
ment, this haunt immerses
visitors in an authentic out-
door scarefest.
I think its a lot different
than other haunted houses
because being outside allows
them to do unique things you
wouldnt normally experi-
ence, said Kimberly Layton,
a sophomore studying physics.
2. Zombie Apocalypse, Lehi
The highly-interactive Zom-
bie Apocalypse tells the story
of a post-2012 world where
the few remaining survivors
make their way through zom-
bie-infested city remains. To
supplement the scares, mas-
termind and general man-
ager Mario Hipol, created an
entire comic book prefacing
the events of the apocalypse.
With fty actors and a profes-
sional makeup artist, the Zom-
bie Apocalypse is meant to tell
a story.
You really get your moneys
worth here, and its guaranteed
to scare, said Grant Smith, a
sophomore and pre-mechani-
cal engineering major. This
is the rst haunted house Ive
seen with a concept that takes
you through a story.
3. Nightmare on
13th, Salt Lake
Visitors of Nightmare
on 13th find themselves in
the heart of a technical and
highly-sophisticated world
that features three differ-
ent consecutive haunted
houses. Filled to the brim with
largerthanlife animatron-
ics, this haunt targets your
senses as you travel through
worlds of The Netherbeast,
Cirque du Fear and another
Zombie Apocalypse.
4. Anguish Asylum, Provo
As the closest haunted house
to BYU campus, Anguish Asy-
lum offers students an ideal
location and a cheaper price
than most local haunts. Evil
walking dolls, live animals
and a terrifying chainsaw
maze turn the parking garage
of Provo Towne Center into a
bad nightmare .
Visitors brave enough to
look around will be amazed by
the details of this haunt, and
feel like they have actually
been committed.
5. Insanity Point,
Thanksgiving Point
Insanity Point offers cus-
tomers seven different mini-
haunts in addition to its main
attraction, Cornophobia.
The large haunted corn maze
can only be accessed by rst
traveling through Hayloft
Horror and Cabin Fever.
The atmosphere was great
because Thanksgiving Point
was so family-friendly and
decked out for fall, but the
haunted houses still scared
me out of my pants, said Dan-
ielle Hanson, a junior studying
communication disorders.
I stole a dollar from my brother when I was
7 years old. I told him the day he left on his mis-
sion. It was to buy a street shark.
Speeding! I went through red lights. But I
stopped at the green ones to make up for it.

Authentic Italian pasta and pizza meet America
B y K E N N E T H B A L D W I N
Samyra Bova surveyed her
lunch options while hurrying
between school and work in
the streets of Milan, Italy. Dis-
appointed in her options, she
remembered when she was a
child and her mother made her
serving-size pies with avorful
llings like hazelnut, apricot
and Paradiso, a combination of
eggs and vanilla.
Bovas mother represents ele-
ments of a country that has been
immortalized by its contribu-
tions to the global food culture.
Italian food has permeated the
U.S. with contagious popularity.
However, while nding a home
in America, it has adapted to
survive. As a result, it can be
difcult to nd authentic Ital-
ian food, the type of food Bovas
mother would be proud of.
The Italian people (have)
never invented any type of fast
food, Bova said. At most we
imported some, but weve never
created them.
The idea of a fast, generic, pre-
packaged plate of food is a con-
cept foreign to native Italians.
In Italy, it would be difcult to
identify which foods would even
be popular from one region to
the next.
We have 20 regions that are
specialized in different foods
and are adamant about staying
different from the others, Bova
said. So wherever you go, you
taste a different plate. Its beauti-
ful because the nation is small.
The different regions of Italy
take pride in the different crops
they specialize in. The ingredi-
ents available locally have the
biggest sway over the foods that
make each region popular.
The sincerity of food is
important, Bova said. Geo-
graphically, Italy is a peninsula
tempered by the sea, and the cli-
mate is perfect for many types
of food, especially fruits and
vegetables.
Trevor Bevan served a mis-
sion for The Church of Jesus
Christ of Latter-day Saints in
Italy and recently returned from
a two-month trip there. Chang-
ing food cultures so dramati-
cally left him frustrated.
Its just different, Bevan
said. When youre in Italy,
youre selective about what you
eat. You dont order prosciutto
crudo unless its from Parma.
Every region has its specialty,
and anything less than that
has a hard time comparing to
it. American restaurants that
claim to be just as good as Italy
make me laugh. How can that be
when even the different regions
in Italy cant copy the original?
Gae Vanzo, an Italian lm-
maker from Gorizia, Italy,
couldnt agree more.
Italian cooking has a large
variety of traditions due to sev-
eral geographical and cultural
differences, Vanzo said. Its
a food that requires the use of
local ingredients to create deli-
cate and composite avors.
Finding local ingredients
to create those delicate avors
can prove to be a challenge in
the commercially-driven food
culture prevalent in the U.S.
Ernesto Lorusso moved to
Provo from Naples, Italy, in 1996
to study accounting at BYU. He
now owns Terra Mia in Orem
and is passionate about main-
taining an authentic avor for
his guests.
I take pride in my product,
Lorusso said. I know my pizza
could have more cheese, or have
a thicker crust, but I dont want
it to. I want to have an authen-
tic product. I like to eat it, and
I like people who have been to
Italy to say, Wow. Thats what
my goal is.
In order to keep up authentic-
ity, he pays what others might
call an uncomfortable price.
In order to have an authen-
tic product, we import our toma-
toes, Lorusso said. We import
our our; the mozzarella is made
fresh. It costs a lot more that
way.
There are elements of a restau-
rant that Lorusso believes are a
tell-tale sign to its authenticity.
The pasta should be al
dente, Lorusso said. That is
one thing that drives me crazy
the most, getting overcooked
pasta. The aroma, the smell in
the restaurant, tells you a lot.
When you have to smother your
dish in cheese, its not the way
we do it.
The most important thing to
Lorusso is the balance of the
avors: each element in the dish
should contribute to the avor
without any one ingredient
overpowering the others.
Americans often adopt Ital-
ian food ideas and cling to them,
like pasta Alfredo, a dish that
does not even exist in Italy, or
dipping bread into plates of
olive oil and balsamic vinegar.
In Italy, you will never nd
a place where you can dip your
bread in olive oil and balsamic
vinegar, Lorusso said. In fact,
theres a joke about a guy who
went there and found this plate
and lled it up with olive oil and
vinegar, and the waiter comes
up and says, Sir, why are you
doing that in the ashtray?
