Politics
Everyday while reading the paper, then the comments, I have to laugh at people that complain about our political system. Sure none of us completely agree with everything our political leaders make, however if you think for a minute from their view point and if you actually understand our political system you should be rejoicing that our nation is still working. Do research of your own, don't just watch Fox and expect them to give you all the right information. Vote, that is the point of our whole system and if you don't vote don't talk. Write your congressman, we hear this all the time but how many people actually do it, they do pay attention. Lastly sitting and complaining on the internet isn't going to help anyone.

CAPSA
It is estimated that 2 million to 4 million U.S. women are assaulted by a domestic partner every year, twelve million women (25% of the female population) will be abused in their lifetime and with 6,117 domestic violence calls in one year from Logan alone, it is a blessing that we have one Community Abuse Prevention Service Agency (CAPSA) here locally. CAPSA is a non profit organization dedicated to preventing abuse in Logan. They have a 24-hr crisis help line, education courses, a safe house, and a facility with therapists and social workers.
April is sexual assault awareness month, CAPSA partners with locals to promote their efforts in educating the community on stopping abuse. To start off the month CAPSA and Utah State University team to host “Walk a Mile In Her Shoes.” Gentlemen from the community come grab a pair of high heels and walk a one mile course around the university to kick off awareness month. Next a 5K “Run from Violence” & 1 Mile Walk is hosted by CAPSA. This gives everyone to get out and stretch their legs in the spring weather for a great cause. Finally on June 1st a golf tournament is held for sponsors. Sponsors, depending on the size of their donation, will receive a golf game, lunch, name/logo on a sign and an ad in the Herald Journal. You can also come for lunch or just golf, all proceeds go to CAPSA.
CAPSA is one of the fastest growing non-profit organizations in Cache Valley. Starting out with a hotline to help victims of abuse in 1976 by Marsha Rawlins from her home went to 1996 when major expansion was needed after progressing steadily including the founding of Somebody’s Attic, safe houses and hiring the first staff members. In 2004 a new shelter was built after the community helped build funds for the expansion, the shelter includes eight separate rooms/beds for 32 adults, cribs, two large living rooms and two kitchens. Now they run a 24 hour hotline, an emergency shelter, 4 educational support groups, and an active volunteer program. From July 2006 to June 2007 CAPSA sheltered 371 individuals, 5500 crisis calls, 400 rape related calls and 12,000 volunteer hours.
Thankfully the founders of CAPSA persisted through tough times; the community caught on and helped all they could. Today CAPSA takes donations to provide people that are struggling to create a better life. With your donations and support we could make Cache Valley domestic violence free.

Legislature
As a lobbying intern this semester, I found that government officials get a bad rap, in reality we should be thanking them for what they do. Did you know that representatives are normal people with day jobs, and they are representatives on the side? They get paid under $10,000 a session, even though they work year round to get everything in place.
These people create the laws we abide by, that ultimately keep us safe, happy and secure. Sure we all disagree with some legislation passed, but if we didn't have any laws we would be no where. The representatives care, during the session they get hundreds of emails a day and majority of them read them and write back. They care about the people they are representing, obviously else they wouldn't have been elected in. Support your elected representative and remember through them you can make a change.

Week in Pictures
A picture is worth a thousand words, as we know. MSNBC posts a Week in Pictures every week. These pictures are the best pictures from around the world, giving us all a glimpse into the world from a different angel. Pictures are normally shot of current events, this week included pictures from Italy and the devastation from the earth quakes. In addition there are amazing photo's of newly bloomed flowers.
Pictures help us to see the things we are learning or are hearing about they show us exactly how it is. While diving into international political studies I have found the things that I am learning really connect once I've seen a picture of the people or their country. MSNBC is a wonderful media outlet, they offer many different resources that are credible. The Week in Pictures isn't always marketed, but it should be something that you check out every week to increase your knowledge of what is happening in our world.

Lucy's Alterations
Logan has some amazing shops for prom gowns and wedding dresses. In our current fashion era modest isn't exactly "in". After purchasing that perfect gown, many need alterations done. Lucy's Alterations is owned and operated by Lucy herself from her home in Smithfield.
She has been a seamstress for many years now, she's talented and easy to get along with. Starting off you'll need to set up an appointment you'll get to hear her wonderful Chinese accent "you come Monday morning, ok?" The minute you walk in her home you will see what she is all about. China, and she is proud of it. After admiring your dress she'll ask questions, take measurements and joke about how pretty you are. When you pick up the finished product you'll realize that her work is fast and flawless. Many come to her after an alteration was already done and ask her to do it again to make it perfect. She'll alter anything you need, adding sleeves and making custom jackets is what she's becoming a professional in.
Next time you are in the market for a perfect gown, don't fear if it'll need some alterations. Buy it and take it into Lucy, she'll do it for less and you'll be satisfied every time.

Obama's dog
Some days i'm surpised what journalists decide is headline news. The Obama's new dog is my latest discovery. In the world i'm sure we have more important news to cover. Everyone gets dogs, however when the president even sneezes we all know about it. I hope all aspiring journalists have good hero's in the journalism field and will make news readable.
Weddings...the money market
While wedding planning I have become slightly discussed with the wedding industry. There are an amazing amount of options from everything you could possibly ever want for your wedding. In addition "traditions" I believe were made up by some wedding planner, teamed with businesses. Why do I have to invite everyone, register at five stores, cut a cake, have a cake, have a book, make everyone wear tuxes, put flowers on everyone, have food, have a beautiful reception, have a dinner or lunch in, decorate every table, have a wedding video, etc. Sure some of it is nice and I really do love planning weddings, just not mine. I do find it crazy though that people can spend up wards of $50,000 on a wedding, I would rather put a down payment on a house.
My advice for people engaged, know what you want, question the "traditions" and don't get carried away with the stupid things. Have fun, listen to peoples suggestions but don't fret over them, remind everyone that yes it is your day, lastly don't give into the emotional marketing done by majority of the wedding industry.

Social Media
While attending the Public Relations Conference a gentlemen spoke about the importance on social media. I couldn't agree with him more that it is important in this day in age when our media outlets are changing constantly, we need to keep up on what is new. However when opening my own personal twitter I have found it to be slightly annoying, and have now limited my friends down to three. I can see the purpose of twitter, having fast news, knowing what is going on, getting the word out to everyone you know or to market for free.
My question today is that is this another fad? When Myspace first came out it was a big deal and stayed that way for many years until Facebook came along and became the newer and better thing. As a personal Facebook user I enjoy it, I think it serves a good purpose but I am not a junky. When I got engaged and didn't change my status on Facebook all of my friends thought the world had ended, precisely the reason why I didn't, to remind everyone that it's okay there are still these things call face to face interaction. I believe we should all try it a little more. Anyways, Facebook is still growing, but may be loosing a little of its edge with all these new social networking outlets. Twitter could become the exact same thing, twenty years from now our kids might laugh at us for our social networking. So should we really be putting in all our time and effort into these outlets? Or should we understand them, let them do their own thing and wait for them to die off?
As for now, I will keep my twitter and my three friends. When/If I find it to be completely useful I will use it more. In the mean time, I will keep looking into more social networking outlets to stay informed in our media world.

Juniper Take Out
You may feel at home when you walk in, or have to take a breath in between bites and realize you’re not at grandma’s house, you must be at Juniper take out. This little hidden treasure of Logan Utah pleases college students and locals alike. With their wonderful home town cooking, great customer service and fun environment there isn’t anything you won’t love about Juniper.
Kirk Hoth began working in the restaurant business with his father, later managed the family restaurant. Ten years later Kirk decided to open his own restaurant. On January 29, 1991 Juniper Take Out opened for business in the Albertson’s shopping plaza. It started small as just a take out business, however with growing popularity in 1993 Juniper Take Out doubled in size including seating for casual dining. Business continued to increase; in 2005 more square footage was acquired.

Kirk Hoth began working in the restaurant business with his father, later managed the family restaurant. Ten years later Kirk decided to open his own restaurant. On January 29, 1991 Juniper Take Out opened for business in the Albertson’s shopping plaza. It started small as just a take out business, however with growing popularity in 1993 Juniper Take Out doubled in size including seating for casual dining. Business continued to increase; in 2005 more square footage was acquired.

ASUSU
You’ve seen all the great parties on campus, attended key note speakers and seen the wonderful advertisements. When election week comes around a large group of students ask the candidates “What do officers actually do?” The candidate might look stunned for a minute because they are thinking “did they really just ask that?” Then they will go on to remind them that they coordinate parties, sit in on important meetings, members of the student fee board, coordinate the government relations council, run the lobbying group and much more. Still to my disbelief students don’t care about the “government” that is affecting them the most.
During elections it is amazing to see how the media controls people, and even more how many people listen and don’t think on their own. During the last elections in November we saw how “important” the presidential race was, and saw little to no coverage on local politics or how the legislative branch was developing. This was partly because of big media ownership but also because people are satisfied with what the media feeds them. Today in the news we see how much money Obama is handing out, when we could be focusing on how the Logan government is corrupt.
Watching the latest school election it doesn’t inspire much hope looking at the people that could one day be in office and the people voting. It is a popularity contest. Majority of people disregarded candidates qualifications, goals and track record instead went by who sally said is “super nice.” The people elected will and can do great things next year, and I wish them all the best. I urge all voters and citizens to pay attention to your local government vote wisely and do your own research.

Arbys
They use to be only known for their curly fries roast beef sandwiches and wonderful sauce. They built their nation wide chain on these staple items. Today they have much more than just roast beef. If you haven’t had a chance to check out your local Arby’s lately, today you should.

The minute you walk in to your local Arby’s you’ll realize that they have transformed, for the better. Have no fear they still have the classics, in addition they have one of the widest spreads of food in the fast food industry.
