Hello Sun Devil!

Arizona State University Undergraduate Student Government (USG) is the official representative governing body for the university Tempe campus undergraduate students and is made up of Executive, Legislative, and Judicial offices. The Executive office is comprised of the President, Vice President-Policy, and Vice President-Services. There are several departments within the Executive office, including Government Relations and Student Services. The Legislative office is the Senate, which represents the interests of students in the universitys schools and colleges. The Senate works with the College Councils, representing their interests and supporting their events. The Judicial branch is a Supreme Court that oversees the actions of the government and makes sure the actions are constitutional.
Government Relations
USG recognizes its role as the student bodys representative, and we are committed to maintaining channels of communication between students and the administration. Our efforts aim at voicing students concerns and interests at local, state, and national levels of government. USG also provides a means by which students can gain experience and training through active political participation.
Internship Program
The Arizona Students Association, in collaboration with the Undergraduate Student Government, offers a Student Government internship program for students interested in advocacy and organizing at the state, local, and campus level. As an intern in this program, students learn the importance of an accessible and affordable higher education and how to enhance every Sun Devils student experience while earning course credit. For more information on ways to get involved and to apply, please contact the ASA Campus Organizer Deanna Mariner at tempeorganizer@azstudents.org.

Personal Safety
The Tempe Police Departments, Crime Prevention Unit would like to provide you with 3 basic personal safety rules and the following crime prevention information: Do stay alert. Keep your mind on your surroundings, whos in front of you and whos behind you. Dont get distracted. If youre worried about crime ask a friend to accompany you when you go out. Do communicate the message that youre calm, confident, and know where youre going. Stand tall, walk purposefully, and make quick eye contact with people around you. Do trust your instincts. If you feel uncomfortable in a place or situationleave.
When Walking:
Plan the safest route to your destination and use it. Choose well lit busy streets and avoid using vacant lots, alleys, or construction sites. Take the long way if its the safest. Know your neighborhood. Find out what stores and restaurants are open late and where the police and fire stations are. Carry your purse close to your body and keep a firm grip on it. Carry a wallet in an inside coat or side trouser pocket, not in a rear trouser pocket. Dont flaunt expensive jewelry or clothing. Walk facing traffic so you can see approaching cars. Dont overburden yourself with packages and groceries that make it hard to react. Bring emergency change for cab fare, bus fare, or a telephone call. Have your car or house key in hand as you approach your vehicle or home. If you suspect youre being followed by someone on foot, cross the street and head for the nearest well lit, populated area. Walk quickly or run to a house or store to call police. If you are being followed by someone in a car, change direction immediately and make a visible point of writing down the license number.
In Your Home:
Keep your doors locked, even when you are home. You should not automatically open your door when someone knocks, especially if youre alone. Know who is outside use the eyeviewer. Keep your windows locked when you are away and while sleeping.
11
When away or at home, draw your blinds or curtains to prevent prowlers from seeing your valuables. Never remain in the laundry room in an apartment community alone. Avoid dark places, short cuts, bushy trees, and sparsely traveled areas.
Take Action Today!
If you see a crime being committed, call the police immediately at 9-1-1. Be sure to report all suspicious activity to our non emergency line at (480) 350-8311. You and your neighbors are safe when you look out for each other!
Safety Escort Service
Many students attend evening courses or stay after hours on campus. As part of its Campus Safety Initiative, the ASU Parents Association supports the operational costs of the Safety Escort Service on the Tempe campus of ASU. The Safety Escort Service shuttles students to any ASU Tempe campus building during evening hours. Call ahead or visit the Safety Escort Service Web site for the most up-todate schedule.

Stay safe while biking in traffic

By Julie Deardorff Chicago Tribune Biking in traffic isnt as treacherous as it might seem. Cyclists rarely get mowed down by motorists from behind _ a common fear _ and in fact, most accidents dont involve motor vehicles at all. The more common threats are often found where you might least expect them: on car-free paths filled with distracted pedestrians, dog walkers, in-line skaters and cyclists with varying skill levels. Still, when bike riders do collide with a car, its often serious. In 2009, 630 U.S. cyclists were killed in crashes with motor vehicles, according to the Pedestrian and Bicycle Information Center (PBIC) (bicyclinginfo.org). Meanwhile, more than 500,000 cycling accidents result in a trip to the emergency room each year. Common sense is your best defense when riding the roads: Dont ride drunk. One-third of all cycling fatalities involved a legally intoxicated cyclist, according to cycling attorney and cyclist Bob Mionske. Ride with traffic _ never against it _ as close as possible to the right. Dont ride with headphones. Hearing the click of a car door could save you. If youre still feeling anxious but want to reap the benefits of an efficient, inexpensive and healthy mode of transportation, here are some ways to reduce your risk of an accident:
Be Safe
Dont hit the road without a helmet. Some suggest that helmeted riders take more risks. But head injuries are responsible for about three-quarters of deaths among bicyclists involved in crashes; wearing one can reduce the risk of a head or brain injury by approximately twothirds or more, according to a research review.
Be Predictable
Be predictable. Ride in a straight line _ and hold it while checking over your shoulder. Dont weave in and out of cars. If there are potholes, the street isnt wide enough to share safely
13
or you see a row of parked cars, it may be safer to temporarily take the lane, or to boldly ride in the middle of the street, said Furia.
Be Seen
Be visible. Some evidence suggests that riding at night _ at least without a light _ is a factor in nearly half of all cycling fatalities, Mionske wrote in his book, Bicycling & The Law. (bicyclelaw.com) To reduce your risk, limit riding to daylight hours and wear fluorescent colors to increase the distance that drivers can see you. Use white lights in the front and red in the rear, as well as reflectors and reflective clothing. By law, you must ride with a light at night; if you flout this, you could be liable for your injuries, according to Mionske.
Be Vigilant
Anticipate accidents. Assume that the car coming in the opposite direction will turn left in front of you, and be prepared to slow down to avoid it, said David Scharff, an internist at Mercy Hospital in Baltimore. Know where the car behind you is, so when you move out to avoid the pothole or rain grate or parked car opening its door, you have plenty of room to glide in front of the car or behind the car to take up the lane, said Scharff, who is also a bike racer and commuter. Dont get yourself pinned in.

Help Eliminate Auto Theft

Professional thieves can steal any car, but make them work for yours. To prevent thefts, the National Insurance Crime Bureau (NICB) and the Arizona Automobile Theft Authority recommends Layered Protection. The more layers of protection on your vehicle, the more difficult it is to steal. The number of layers your vehicle needs varies depending on your vehicle and geographic location. Your budget and personal preferences should determine which anti-theft device is best for you.
Layer #1 -- Common Sense
An unlocked vehicle with a key in the ignition is an open invitation to any thief, regardless of which anti-theft device you use. The common sense approach to protection is the simplest and most cost-effective way to thwart would-be thieves. Lock your car - half of all vehicles stolen are left unlocked Take your keys - nearly 20% of all vehicles stolen have the keys in them Park in well-lit areas - car thefts occur at night more than half the time Park in attended lots - car thieves do not like witnesses Do not leave your vehicle running and unattended Completely close your car windows Do not leave valuables in plain view Do not hide a spare set of keys in the car - the pros know where to look If you have a garage, use it - when you do, lock both the vehicle and the garage door
Layer #2 -- Warning Device
The second layer of protection is a visible or audible device which alerts thieves that your vehicle is protected. Popular second layer devices include: Audible alarms Steering wheel locks Steering column locks Brake locks Tire locks Watch Your Car decals Identification markers in or on vehicle Protective Window Laminate Microdots applied to various surfaces on vehicle, which are imprinted with identifica-
15
tion information. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) etching on vehicle windows.
Layer #3 -- Immobilizing Device
This third layer of protection is a device which prevents thieves from bypassing your ignition and hot-wiring the vehicle. Some electronic devices have computer chips in ignition keys. Other devices inhibit the flow of electricity or fuel to the engine until a hidden switch or button is activated. Popular third layer devices include: Smart keys High security locks & keys Fuse cut-offs Kill switches Starter, ignition and fuel disablers
Layer #4 -- Tracking Device
The final layer of protection is a tracking device which emits a signal to a police or monitoring station when the vehicle is reported stolen. Tracking devices are very effective in helping authorities recover stolen vehicles.

Fire Safety
The Tempe Fire Department is concerned about your safety both on and off campus. When choosing off-campus housing, insure that fire safety plays a role in your efforts to choose an apartment, just as you consider crime prevention issues. Since January of 2000, 100 students have died in campus-related fires in the United States, with almost 80 percent occurring in off-campus housing, according to Campus Firewatch, a monthly newsletter focusing on the complex issues of campus fire safety. Four factors have been identified in a number of the off-campus fires: Lack of automatic fire sprinklers Missing or disabled smoke alarms Careless disposal of smoking materials Impaired judgment from alcohol consumption With ASU being the largest university in the nation, we are not immune from the dangers of fire, as evidenced by two near tragic fires in off-campus housing during the 2006 fall semester. Some or all of the factors identified above were involved in the Tempe fires. One fire involved a condominium in which two students were physically rescued by firefighters and suffered severe smoke inhalation, requiring lengthy stays in the Maricopa County Hospital Burn Unit. In the second serious off-campus fire, one student was seriously injured when she was forced to jump from a second floor patio to escape the flames. There is a great deal of choice when it comes to selecting off-campus housing. Consider the added protection provided by automatic fire sprinklers. Know that smoke detectors are required in all rental housing units in Tempe, and ask that the unit be tested to insure that it is working before you select the apartment. Ask when the last fire inspection was done on the building and do not hesitate to ask to see the Fire Departments Inspection Form so that you can be knowledgeable about any noted violations of the fire code.
Basic steps in fire safety include:
Not sleeping in a building without a working smoke detector. Know two ways out of any building that you are in, whether it is your house, apartment, theater or night club. After a party, check seat cushions on couches and chairs for cigarettes that may be smoldering, and dispose of cigarette butts properly.
17
Do not overload extension cords if may cause them to overheat. Make sure you have a fire extinguisher and that you know how to use it. Additionally, you can call the Tempe Fire Departments Fire Prevention and Public Fire Safety Education Division at 480-858-7200 for additional information and/or to ask for a fire inspection on your living unit at no cost. Choose and maintain a fire safe environment for your residence while attending Arizona State University.
The Dangers of Hoarding
The issue of residential hoarding is a real problem all around the Valley and Tempe Fire is reaching out to the community to raise awareness of this growing problem and to communicate that help is available. Tempe firefighters have experienced many cases of hoarding. It is a dangerous trend that risks the lives of firefighters and residents alike. People with friends or loved ones who may have a problem with hoarding can seek help from the Arizona Hoarding Task Force at 602-778-3363 or www.azhoarding.com. This collaboration of agencies provides links to research, support groups and personal organization services. Tempe residents also can find help through the citys Care 7 Victim Assistance program at 480-350-8032 or www.tempe.gov/care7.

Be A Good Neighbor
In an effort to create the best livable community, Arizona State University and the City of Tempe formed a partnership to provide ASU students with programs and services to enhance the quality of life.
Know Your Neighbors
When you make the decision to live off campus you have a responsibility to be a considerate neighbor. Introduce yourself to your neighbors and say hello when you see them. Exchange phone numbers in case of an emergency and ask your neighbors to watch your home when you are out of town.
Parties
Have respect for your neighbors right to peace and quiet. Let your neighbors know in advance if you plan to have a large party, and give them your telephone number so they can contact you in case your party becomes too loud. (Five or more guests is defined as a party by the City of Tempe Ordinance 5-30 through 5-35). Always clean up your trash and be sure that everyone present is 21 or older if alcohol is served.
Noise
Property owners and property managers will be notified of all noise and alcohol violations occurring on their properties. Property owners will have to make decisions when handling these violations. So dont leave barking dogs outside and monitor noise levels including the volume of your stereo and TV.
Property Appearance
Property owners and tenants are responsible for bringing property into compliance. Failure to comply or repeated violations may result in legal recourse and a fine. (Tempe Nuisance and Property Enhancement Code). Mow your lawn on a regular basis Trim bushes and shrubs Keep furniture inside and not on the porch Put away your trash can after garbage collection Do not overfill your trash can
neighbOrhOOd Living
19
Parking
Park your car facing the correct direction on the street and in appropriately marked spaces. Do not keep cars that do not run in your driveway and do not park in front of your neighbors houses. If your car needs repair, do not do maintenance on your car in your driveway or in the street.
Crime Prevention
Follow these suggestions to keep you and your vehicle safe: 1. Never leave keys in your vehicle. 2. Always lock your car doors. 3. Never leave valuable items in your car. 4. Park in well-lit areas. 5. Park in close proximity to your destination. For more information click on the Tempe Crime Prevention web site at www.tempe.gov/cpu.

Ask them do they feel safe? How does management handle issues? 5. The management company will be interviewing you as a prospective resident. You would want to interview the management company to make sure they meet your expectations. 6. Ask the management company if they participate in the Crime Free Multi-Housing

Loud Party Concerns

Tempe has a vitality that is unmatched in the valley. Arizona State University, Mill Avenue, and huge city sponsored events. Private parties are also frequent, as are noise complaints. The Tempe Police responded to over 8,000 loud party/noise complaints for the year 2004! These complaints often result in the person responsible for the party receiving a fine or a citation.
What is a loud party?
A loud party is a gathering that disturbs the peace of another. It does not actually have to be a traditional party to qualify. Parties often bring related problems such as noise complaints, loud vehicles and their stereos, neighborhood litter, and misbehavior such as urinating in public. The info below gives information on how loud parties are handled by the Tempe Police.
What to do if you are planning a party:
Notify neighbors of the planned party. If the neighbors are not supportive, change the location or nature of the party. Consider neighbors when planning your party. Control who is invited and admitted to your party. During your party, periodically check your neighborhood to correct problems. You may be responsible for what takes place off of your property as a result of your party. Pick up trash and correct any other problems. If you lose control of your party, end it yourself. If you are unsuccessful in ending it, call the police. The police will assist you. If the police show up at your party, fully cooperate with them. Your cooperation may keep you from getting fined or cited. Do not mix alcohol and underage party attendees. The two do not go together, and could lead to civil and criminal consequences.
What to do when neighbors are planning a party:
Express concerns early. When you discover a planned party for your neighborhood, discuss your concerns with the responsible person. When you learn of a party call the Tempe Police non-emergency number and give the information to on-duty personnel. If the party is going on and concern arises, contact the responsible person if you feel comfortable doing so.
neighbOrhOOd Living
23
Be tolerant. Your ongoing relationship with your neighbor may be more important than a single event, even if your routine is challenged for one night. If the property is a rental, notify the landlord yourself in writing. This assures the landlord knows what is happening. Rental properties are required by law to register with the Maricopa County Assessors Office. Their website is www.maricopa.gov/assessor.
When to call the police:
When all else fails, call Tempe Police and report the disturbance. If you are not willing to identify yourself or be listed as a victim in a police report, police will still respond, but the incident will be handled as a civil matter.
Other remedies:
If the residence you are calling about is an on going problem, there are other remedies that could solve the concerns. Several options include: Refer ongoing problems to your area Crime Prevention officer. Your officer can be reached by calling (480) 858-6330 or by clicking on www.tempe.gov/cpu Consider mediation. This is a free service through the City of Tempes Social Services Department. Set an appointment by calling (480) 350-2430. The website is www. tempe.gov/social services. Arizona State Law
Arizona State law states that a person commits the crime of Disorderly Conduct by making unreasonable noise that disturbs the peace and quiet of another person. (A.R.S. 13-2904) A person believed to have committed disorderly conduct may be arrested or cited. If found guilty, that person could be sentenced up to four months in jail and given a $750 fine for a first offense. To charge someone with Disorderly Conduct, the courts require that a citizen allow police to put his/her name in the police report and testify as a victim. No report will be taken if there is no victim.
Rents starting as low as $650 a month.

Tempe Rental Housing Code Requirements

Why a Rental Housing Code? - Degree of Consanguinity
While most property owners, landlords and property management companies do their best to maintain rental units in safe and healthy conditions, others may neglect needed repairs on their properties. Exterior conditions such as peeling paint, curling roof shingles and dead landscaping may have a negative effect on surrounding property values and breed apathy in a neighborhood. Interior conditions such as adequate cooling and heating, proper plumbing, and correct electrical connections are all necessary to secure the well-being and safety of the tenant. The City of Tempes Rental Housing Code was adopted in January 1998 to ensure that rental housing units, both single and multi-family units, remain free of deteriorated and slum-like conditions. The code was not designed to settle landlord-tenant disputes. This information is intended to provide a summary of Tempes Rental Housing Code requirements. For specific information or a complete copy of the Rental Housing Code, please contact, Neighborhood Enhancement at 480-350-8372 or visit www.tempe. gov/codee/.
ZDC defintion:
Family means: 1. One (1) or more persons related by the 3rd degree of consanguinity, adoption, marriage or as domestic partners as defined in Section 7-105, and not more than two (2) additional persons living together in a dwelling unit; or 2. Not more than three (3) persons who are not related by the 3rd degree of consanguinity, adoption, marriage or as domestic partners, living together in a dwelling unit.
The City of Tempe regulates the number of people that can legally occupy a property. In single family dwellings, more than three (3) people that are not related can not live together as a household. For more information please contact the Code Compliance office at 480-350-8076.
Safety and Security
For the purpose of safety and security, each and every rental unit within the City is required to meet the following minimum conditions: Smoke Detectors are required in each unit and must be in working condition at all times. Locking devises are required for exterior swinging or sliding doors, and on all win-

Meet the Parkies:

By Tovin Lapan The Orange County Register
Colleges camper park offers unique, tight-knit community
SANTA CRUZ, Calif. _ Cloaked within a redwood grove on the north side of the University of California-Santa Cruz campus is a place that many students do not even know exists, but for others is the unique, picturesque and serene community where they bought their first home before they turned 21 _ the Camper Park. The students who live in the 42-space park choose to live here because they identify with the social environment and tight-knit, communal living. The residents sip morning tea together, help each other out with chores and maintenance, teach each other how to play instruments and other skills, and, in general, seem to be on the same wavelength. Just before noon Friday The Beatles Yellow Submarine seeped through the walls of the first camper on the circular road. The very next camper in the line was actually painted eggyolk yellow and had the words We all live in a yellow submarine written on the side. I heard stories about this place from friends, said Nate Kandus, a Santa Cruz student who lived in the park from 2007 to 2010 and was back visiting. When I came up here I saw that it was purely magical. Its an inspired, intentional community that allows for self exploration and growth for all its residents. A stroll through the park reveals gardens, sculptures, piles of bike tires and colorfully decorated and painted campers in every shape and size, many of them with names on the exterior such as The Glory Wagon and Creamcicle. In the center of the park is a community area with laundry facilities, a kitchen, restrooms and showers. Every Wednesday and Sunday the residents hold a potluck dinner open to all comers. The residents call themselves parkies, and hold a Trailer Park Olympics every year, using unconventional competitions as an ice breaker. The park is a really strong community, said resident Caileen Brandt, 21, whose remark was echoed with a Hell yea, from fellow park resident Will Lee. Its like a co-op more than a dorm, Brandt said. It is mostly student run, and we are

responsible for our own community. We keep it clean and make sure we are responsible campus neighbors. If someone is causing problems, we will solve it as a community, but we may have to expedite them off the island. The students also must be more self-reliant then they are in the dorms. I would guess this is first home-owning opportunity for the students, and its a great experience for students to learn about the upkeep on a home, said Jim Grove, assistant director of housing services and facilities. The trailers themselves are owned by the students, and most go for between $3,000 and $3,500 depending on their condition and included amenities such as bathrooms. Departing students sell their trailer to someone on the waiting list, typically for a few hundred dollars less than what they paid. Rent for the spaces is $500 a month, or $556 a month for those who need a sewer connection. The cheapest dorm rooms on campus cost about $800 per month after the included meal plan is subtracted. There is a waiting list to get into the camper park that typically has between 30 and 80 names on it depending on the time of year. It is very popular among the portion of the student body who likes living in an alternative arrangement like that, said Grove. A lot of students, especially those new to campus, have no idea its there. It really is a hidden gem.

Small spaces can host great gardens

By Donna Birch McClatchy Newspapers MODESTO, Calif. The garden that Shannon Mahaffey recently designed and planted is proof positive that good things really do come in small packages. Before she worked her garden mojo, the space was an empty little dirt plot surrounded by a wood fence on three sides. But in three days, the 14-year-old budding gardener transformed the space into a safari-themed oasis. She filled the plot with a number of plants: purple ornamental fountain grasses, crape myrtle, fuchsia, firetail, croton, agapanthus and other flora. She also carved out enough soil to add a tiny creek as a water feature and added large rocks and decorative bark to her design. And to really drive home the safari theme as well as add some whimsy and enhance the gardens appeal to children Mahaffey added a couple of stuffed animals, a tiger and lion, the latter decked out in a safari hat and car to the mix. The size of the space she had to work with? A minimal 10 feet by 10 feet. Mahaffey was among a number of people who created gardens from scratch around the floriculture building at the Stanislaus County Fairground in Turlock, Calif. The garden creators included individuals and groups such as local school-based chapters of FFA and 4-H. The plots the fair exhibitors had to work with were 10 by 10 feet and 10 by 20 feet, sizes much smaller than the average backyard. But with planning and a little elbow grease, garden creators were able to pack a lot of elements into their spaces.
Al Fresco For Two
Garden designer Christine Gemperle Bacon created an intimate, simple and elegant retreat in her 10-by-10 space. The theme was al fresco dining, so a cozy glass-topped table and two rattan chairs, set on top of a limestone patio with decorative gravel as a base, served as the focal point. Two potted dwarf Alberta spruce trees atop two small pieces of sod marked the entry to this space, encouraging visitors to come and sit a spell.

A hanging centerpiece of candles and ivory hovered above the table. The designer used several large pieces of travertine to create a retaining wall, which held a raised garden bed that included lavender, purple-leafed coleus and two corkscrew blue point juniper topiaries. Two side flower beds included rosemary, more lavender, orange, yellow and gold marigolds and zinnias, coral bells and Mexican sage, which sprouts long, narrow, purple flowerets (hummingbirds love this plant).
Zen-Inspired Serenity
Simplicity was the cornerstone of another garden, designed by a local Christian group. At 10 by 20 feet, it was one of the larger garden plots, but plants and accessories were kept to a minimum, to avoid distractions, traits of a true Zen or contemplative garden. Raked sand led to a small wooden deck that housed a small bench, a few rocks and a container with sedge grass. A bamboo screen served as a backdrop to the deck area. The sedge was one of only four types of greenery included in this design, the others being sod, Japanese black pine trees and groupings of heavenly bamboo.
Grandmas Garden
The local high schools FFA chapter paid homage to grandma-style gardening with its 10by-20 garden. The space was a combination of flowers and edibles, so it looked good and tasted better. Designers used an array of colorful trees, including purple-flowered potato vine, burgundy crape myrtle and white oleander. White and purple alyssum bordered etched pavers that created a little walkway. Red bark mulch added color and kept weeds at bay. Marigolds added additional bursts of color throughout the landscape.
Quick Tips
When it comes to gardening, size doesnt always matter. Whether your space is a container on an apartment balcony or a narrow stretch of earth along a side yard, here are a few tips to help make the most of your little piece of paradise: Make a rough sketch of the space. Dont let vertical space go to waste. Start with good soil. Always group plants with similar water and sun needs. Use plants of varying heights to create focal points and visual interest.

Only for you:

By Kim Ode Star Tribune (Minneapolis)
Solo desserts are special, because their scale doesnt tip the scales
From childhood, we are taught to share. We admire a generous spirit, and a commitment to serve all. Yet because we can never trust certain people not to hold back the larger piece of cake for themselves, we love individual desserts. Actually, we love them for many reasons: A solo serving exudes an I made this for you specialness, and is almost invariably prettier than a slab of something, however luscious. For mom on Mothers Day, or for any bridal or baby shower when oohing and aahing is in order, consider serving individual Lemon Charlottes, which combine tender homemade ladyfingers, tart lemon curd, a cloud of lemon mousse and fresh berries. The results are far more impressive than the actual labor involved, and isnt that how we all want our mothers to think of us? Homemade ladyfingers similarly are marvels of humble beginnings. A simple meringue batter is spooned into a pastry bag, piped into long shapes and given a double-dusting of powdered sugar before baking. Store-bought ladyfingers _ if you can even find them _ are pale imitations of these moist spongecake batons, crackling with just the sheerest veneer of caramelized powdered sugar. Ladyfingers first appeared in the late 15th century at the court of the Duchy of Savoy to honor a visit by the King of France, which is why they sometimes are referred to as savoiardi. Apparently they were especially popular with young members of the court; the fact that Twinkies pay homage to long tubes of sponge cake is merely coincidence. Now, while were all in favor of having the right tools for any task, we must note that its not necessary to own eight metal charlotte ring molds. We bought a 3-inch mailing tube from an office supply store and cut it into eight 3-inch lengths with a serrated knife. Lined with strips of parchment paper, these work admirably and can be re-used. Chilled for several hours, a charlotte holds together well (and remember, youre not sharing this with anyone). But we like the final touch of encircling each dessert with a length of ribbon, so your guests feel like theyre opening a gift. Which, of course, they are.

Ladyfingers
Makes enough for 8 individual charlottes, plus extra. Note: Cake flour is finely textured with a high starch content that makes tender desserts. You can find the flour in boxes in the baking aisle. Adapted from The Joy of Cooking. 1 cup plus 2 tbsp. cake flour (see Note, above) 6 eggs, separated, divided 1/4 cup plus 1/3 cup granulated sugar, divided 1 tsp. vanilla 1/4 tsp. cream of tartar 1/2 cup powdered sugar Directions: Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Place racks in the lower and middle positions. Place parchment papers on 2 baking sheets, anchoring them on the bottom with a dot of baking spray or butter. With a ruler, mark a guide to measure 5-inch ladyfingers. (If you want to pipe discs for the base of the charlottes, trace eight 2 3/4-inch circles; otherwise, you can cut and fit ladyfingers to make a base.) Sift cake flour into a medium bowl. If you dont have a sifter, whisk the flour briskly to remove any lumps. In a medium bowl, beat egg yolks, 1/4 cup granulated sugar and vanilla on high speed until thick and pale yellow, 2 to 3 minutes. Scrape into larger bowl. Return the flour to the sifter and sift evenly over the top of the eggs. Do not mix in. (No sifter? Just distribute evenly.) In a large clean bowl, beat the egg whites and cream of tartar to soft peaks. Increase speed to high, gradually add 1/3 cup granulated sugar, and beat until peaks are stiff. With a spatula, fold a third of egg whites into egg yolk mixture, gently stirring until almost no streaks remain. Fold in the remaining whites in two batches, gently lifting from the bottom and folding over the top until few streaks remain, taking care not to deflate the whites.

Spoon the batter into a large pastry bag fitted with a 5/8 inch plain tip. (It helps to stand the bag upright in a vase to fill it. No pastry bag? Fill a plastic bag and snip off one corner.) Pipe the batter onto the parchment paper. Each ladyfinger should be about 1 inch wide and 5 inches long. Youll need 16 to 20 ladyfingers for the charlottes, plus about a dozen more for the bases (or make discs). To give the ladyfingers a thin veneer of crispness, heres a tip from the new Sprinkle Bakes by Heather Baird (Sterling, $19.95). Instead of sifting only once with powdered sugar before baking, Baird sifts half of the sugar over the ladyfingers, then waits 5 minutes until the sugar begins to melt. Sift the remaining sugar over the pastries. Place pans on oven racks and bake for 6 minutes, then switch positions. Bake for 6 minutes more, then slide the parchment onto a wire rack to cool. Gently peel the ladyfingers from the parchment and store in an airtight container not more than a day, or use immediately.
Lemon Curd
Makes about 1 2/3 cups, enough for 8 charlottes. Note: This recipe is from The Joy of Cooking. 3 eggs 1/3 cup sugar Grated zest of 1 lemon 1/2 cup strained fresh lemon juice (from 2 to 3 lemons) 6 tbsp. (3/4 stick) unsalted butter, cut in small pieces 1/4 tsp. vanilla Directions: In a medium saucepan, whisk together eggs, sugar and zest. Add lemon juice and butter. Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly until the butter is melted. Continue whisking until the mixture is thickened and simmer gently for a few seconds. Scrape curd into a bowl and stir in vanilla. Let cool, cover and refrigerate to thicken. May be made several days in advance.
Mini Charlottes With Lemon Mousse And Curd

Serves 8. Note: To make your own molds from 3-inch-diameter cardboard tubing, use a serrated knife (or saw) to cut 3-inchtall pieces. Line them with parchment paper if using cardboard. Each charlotte will use 2 (5-inch) ladyfingers plus more for each base (either broken ladyfingers or a 3-inch disk made from ladyfinger batter). 1 cup heavy cream 1/4 cup powdered sugar 16 ladyfingers plus more for bases (see Note) 1 2/3 cup lemon curd (homemade or commercial) For charlottes: Selection of fresh fruit: raspberries, strawberries, kiwi, blackberries, blueberries.
hOme cOOking
37
Directions: Whip cream and powdered sugar to stiff peaks. Set aside. Place 8 ring molds (3 inches tall and 3 inches in diameter) on a rimmed pan. If using cardboard rings, line with parchment paper (see Note). For each ring, cut and piece together about 1 1/2 ladyfingers to make a base, or insert pastry made into disks that fit. Cut 2 ladyfingers in half and line the ring with the sugared sides facing out. (If theres a large gap, cut another ladyfinger to fit.) Place a rounded tablespoon of lemon curd on each base, then fold remaining curd into the whipped cream to make a mousse. Place a rounded tablespoon of lemon mousse on the curd, then add a few blueberries or raspberries. Add additional mousse to within 1/4 inch of the top of the ladyfingers. Cover with plastic wrap and chill for 2 to 4 hours. Just before serving, arrange fresh fruit on top of each charlotte. With a spatula, gently transfer each from the rimmed pan to a serving plate. Remove tubes or molds by slipping them off. If desired, tie with ribbon, and serve.
Your Choice Of Filling

There are many options for finishing the charlotte. Any flavor of mousse or custard would work. Here are some ideas, beyond the lemon curd and mousse, to get you started. Layer of melted chocolate on base, topped with chocolate mousse and fresh raspberries. Chocolate mousse with layers of grated chocolate, mini chocolate chips or toasted finely chopped nuts. Strawberry mousse (strawberry puree mixed in with whipped cream) with diced berries atop Vanilla custard with toasted shredded coconut in layers (for a coconut cream pie effect). Vanilla custard with layers of bananas and graham cracker crumbs or vanilla wafer crumbs (for a banana cream pie effect). Perhaps a drizzle of melted chocolate. Two flavors of mousse or custard for a layered effect. Butterscotch custard with whipped cream.

Coffee cup kid:

By Cindy Dampier Chicago Tribune
Ingredients by the drop, cooking times in seconds and an urge to experiment yield instant love-in-a-cup
When I was a kid, my mother called me The Mad Scientist. It wasnt that I was an ace in science, but more that I liked to mix stuff in tiny cups and leave them scattered around the house. So when I stumbled on a recipe on the Prudent Baby blog (prudentbaby.com) for a coffeecake in a coffee cup, I was hooked. The ingredients were insanely tiny (1/2 an egg! drops of vanilla!) and the results could be tasted in minutes because the cooking was done in the microwave. The instant gratification meant that weekday breakfasts could include a warm, adorable coffeecake for one grateful child. In short, it was kind of brilliant. Turns out the coffeecake post was Prudent Babys top post of 2011. Co-founder Jaime Morrison Curtis, who came up with the cinnamon-flavored cake as an alternative to chocolate cake-in-a-cup recipes, recognized its appeal right away. Tiny things are awesome, she says. I did have to mess around with it a bit ... but thats the fun part of making recipes. It was so much fun, it made me wonder what else I could cook in a coffee cup. Heres what I discovered: Though the microwave is a blunt cooking instrument, it works well with small portions of anything that aims for a soufflelike consistency. Think English steamed puddings, lava cakes, bread puddings, omelets and dont overcook. Compensate for the lack of browning by using dark brown sugar, or covering the tops of your creations with garnishes such as crumb topping or cheese. Once youve figured out basic proportions and cooking times (which will vary depending on your cup size and your microwave), start raiding your fridge for ingredients that suggest variations on your themes. Because the quantities are so small (though you can also double recipes and split them between two cups), you can experiment as much as you like without fretting over wasted

ingredients. Once you start, you might discover that youre a mad scientist too. Recipe notes: Use a microwaveable cup, and consider placing it on a plate to catch possible overflow. We found that a 12-ounce cup worked best for these recipes. You may need to adjust cooking times depending on the strength of your microwave oven. The cup and mixture will be very hot. Allow to cool a bit before eating. Each recipe makes 1 serving.

Building better burgers:

By Joe Bonwich St. Louis Post-Dispatch
You can grill a great burger using beef, but why stop there?
Wed have liked to provide some burger-making tips to coincide with the start of grilling season, but as everyone knows, this year that ship sailed with La Nina. And even when we do get a normal transition from winter into spring, many of you have been firing up the grill all year round. Nonetheless, weve been flipping up a storm at the backyard grill, making burgers from a variety of meats (and in one case, a vegetable). Our first suggestion: Use high-quality, relatively low-fat beef, but add some fat, working from the inside out. Putting a pat of herb butter inside the uncooked patty makes the interior moist while adding flavor. Our second suggestion: Skip the beef and go with bison for a full, meaty flavor. Bison has about a third less fat than 90 percent lean beef, however, so it, too, can benefit greatly from some added ingredients. We recommend adding one egg for every pound of ground bison and flavoring it with just a touch of shallot and Worcestershire. Other flavorings would work equally well, so experiment with your favorites. Our third suggestion involves moving beyond red meat. Turkey burgers are generally lower in fat than beef burgers, but be careful: Not all ground turkey is created equal. Look for a label that specifies lean ground turkey breast, with no dark meat or skin added. And finally, for our fourth and fifth suggestions, consider dropping the meat altogether. Make a burger out of fish a tuna burger, for example or take advantage of the fact that a portobello mushroom cap cooked on the grill looks a lot like burger patty.

Americas sweet-tart:
By Joe Bonwich St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Rhubarb is beginning to ripen; enjoy it in desserts, savory sauces and side dishes
Sam Wiseman associates rhubarb with nostalgia Its such an old-fashioned crop, she says. (Sam is short for Samantha.) A lot of people remember it from their youth, seeing their grandmothers grow it in the garden. Whats more, rhubarb plants can have a long life. Some people say that theyre still growing their grandmothers rhubarb, Wiseman says. For her part, Wiseman started growing rhubarb a few years ago after more and more customers asked for it. She has operated Sunflower Savannah Farm in Beaufort, Mo., for 12 years. Thanks to our warm spring, Wisemans rhubarb got an early start this season. Then it just stalled, she says. But fresh rhubarb has also begun to appear in supermarkets. In general, color isnt an indicator of ripeness or sweetness. Rhubarb comes in varieties ranging from green to deep red, and some is speckled or has graduations of color. You should purchase rhubarb thats firm and has relatively shiny skin. Avoid rhubarb whose ends show signs of drying out. In the kitchen, the classic affinity for tart rhubarb is, of course, strawberry. Rhubarb also pairs well with other sweet ingredients. But dont limit yourself: Rhubarb can flavor side dishes, perk up sauces for meat or fish, and even be pickled for use in a colorful salad.

Transfer to a food processor or blender; process until smooth. Season to taste with salt and cinnamon. Serve with a roasted uncured pork leg or a pork shoulder roast.
Sloe Rhubarb
Yield: 4 servings 1 pounds rhubarb stalks cup granulated sugar cup sloe, danson or elderberry gin (see note) 2 tablespoons water 1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Cut the rhubarb into short lengths, trimming off the top and bottom of each stalk and pulling off any strings. Put the rhubarb into an enam-
eled, glass or stainless steel oven-safe baking dish. (Dont use aluminum.) 2. Stir together sugar, gin and water; pour over the fruit. Bake until tender, 40 to 60 minutes, basting occasionally with the juices. 3. Let cool slightly and serve warm, or refrigerate and serve cold.
Rhubarb Fool With Cardamom Cream And Pistachios

Yield: 4 servings For the cardamom cream: 6 green cardamom pods 3 tablespoons superfine sugar 1 cup creme fraiche 1 cup heavy cream For the rhubarb: 1 pounds rhubarb, tops and bottoms trimmed, any leaves removed, sliced crosswise into -inch pieces cup superfine sugar cup dry white wine 1 vanilla bean, split lengthwise 2 teaspoons rose water For serving: cup shelled salted roasted pistachios
ture. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate. 3. Make the rhubarb. Toss rhubarb and cup sugar together in a bowl. Transfer to a medium pot; add wine. Use a knife to scrape the seeds from the vanilla bean into the pot; discard the pod. 4. Bring to a gentle simmer over mediumlow heat. Cook, stirring occasionally and gently, until the liquid is a little creamy and the rhubarb is tender but the pieces are still largely intact, about 15 minutes. Let cool completely, then stir in the rose water. 5. Assemble the fool. With a whisk or a handheld electric mixer, whip the cream mixture until its fluffy and full with semistiff peaks. Spoon some of the rhubarb mixture into the bottom of a large bowl or the bottoms of four 8-ounce glass serving dishes or glasses. Top with a layer of cream; sprinkle on some pistachios. Repeat layers until youve used everything, finishing with a layer of rhubarb. Cover and refrigerate until cold, at least 1 hour.

Pound the cardamom seeds to a powder in a mortar, then add 3 tablespoons sugar and pound briefly. 2. Put creme fraiche and heavy cream in a large mixing bowl; stir in the cardamom mix-

In the form of a golf cart or van, the Safety Escort Service provides an escort for free from any on-campus location. Safety Escort Service is open from 7:00 PM to 3:00 AM, Monday-Saturday, and 7:00 PM-11:00 PM on Sundays.

The Off-Campus Housing Fair is a unique on-campus opportunity for ASU students to speak personally with representatives from local housing and apartment communities. The event has expanded to include vendors that provide amenities and services related to living off-campus, thereby increasing the information students need before transitioning to off-campus living.

Car checks a part of lifes basic skill set

By William Hageman Chicago Tribune Did you know that aside from listening for thumping sounds or eyeing mysterious puddles of goo on the garage floor, there are things even the most automotively challenged car owners can do to maintain their vehicles? A little effort can keep your car safe and save money down the line. Check No. 1: Fluid Levels Check once a month, more frequently on older cars. Pop the hood and prop it up securely. Oil and transmission: Check your owners manual to find their locations. Remove the cap or dipstick, wipe it clean with a rag or paper towel, reinsert it, then withdraw it again. The full level is marked on the stick. Replenish fluids as necessary into the proper port, shown in the manual. And if the oil or fluid is dark, it probably needs to be changed. (Let a pro do it.) Wiper fluid & coolant: These are generally in opaque plastic reservoirs with obvious markings. The tops snap off for easy refilling. Engine on/off: Most fluid levels should be checked with the engine off and cold; it should be running when you check the transmission fluid. Beware of fan/belts. Check No. 2: Windshield Wipers Check twice a year, more frequently if you use a lot of washer fluid. Ask the pro at the auto parts store which wiper model fits your car. Replace: Raise the wiper-arm assembly away from the windshield, then find the mounting clip. Release the clip (a screwdriver may be needed), and the wiper will slide off the arm. Slide the new wiper on until the mounting clip clicks, then lower the arm back to the windshield. Replace both wipers at the same time. Check No. 3: Tire Pressure Check once a month. Get a tire gauge at any store with an auto section. Reading: Remove the cap on the tires air valve put it in your pocket so it doesnt get lost then press the gauge to the valve. If you hear hissing, youre off; realign the gauge till it stops.

One of the great things about being in college is a sense of new found freedom. With freedom comes respect, responsibility, and involvement in new communities. We encourage you as students to take pride in Arizona State University, as well as to take pride in your surrounding community. One way to show your Sun Devil pride is by being a good neighbor and engaging in responsible, appropriate behavior both while you are on campus and when you are off campus. The Center for Off-Campus Student Services is available to assist you in your integration into the community. The Center is located at 915 South Rural Road, in Tempe on the corner of Rural and Terrace across from Cholla Apartments in the former Bank One/Chase Building. Some of the features The Center offers you are: apartment locater services, roommate matching services, educational materials to inform you of city and state laws, adult learners and childcare programs and family resources. We invite you to come and visit The Center and take advantage of these wonderful services! For more information: www.asu. edu/studentaffairs/reslife/ocss or call 480.965-2940. Our office works with dedicated individuals here at ASU, as well as the surrounding communities to achieve our stated goals. We encourage you as individuals to involve yourself in your community through community service, civic engagement, and participation. We wish you great success at Arizona State University.
Go Sun Devils!
Sincerely,
Stephanie A. Salazar, Off Campus Student Services, Fraternity & Sorority Life & Liaison City of Tempe
