Talia Jensen is the owner of Portobello Road, a boutique located at 122 Welch Ave. Jensen graduat-ed from Iowa State in 2009 with a major in apparel, merchandising and de-sign and production and a minor in entrepreneurial studies.

How was Portobello Road started?

I have always wanted to open my own boutique, and after working a full time job after college for a few years, I finally decided that I didn’t want to wait any longer. I was ready to jump in and get things started. I didn’t want to be a 40-year-old who had worked all her life just to start a business. I wanted to work my whole life at my own boutique. I quit my job in Minnesota and moved to Ames and wait-ed for a spot to open up. Then I jumped in and got

it started.Why did

you pick the name “Porto-bello Road?”

I wanted a name I could build an aesthetic around. I didn’t want it just to be a boutique with clothes that gave people no feel-ing. I looked at some dif-ferent names and nothing really stood out as being anything special. My friend and I were brainstorming one day and we started talking about Portobello Road. Portobello Road is a name of a famous flea market in London, and it really allowed me to do a very eclectic mix of items. I have vintage and I have new and I have clothes and home decor and trendy, random and weird things. Plus, I really wanted to put a brick road. The name encompassed everything I wanted to put into the store.

What is the toughest

part of running your own business?

Figuring out every-thing that needs to be done and then actually do-ing it. If things need to be clean, I clean it. If things need to be ordered, I order it. Managing and hiring — it all needs to be done and you can’t just sit around and wait for someone else to do it because then it just won’t get done. The hard-est thing is getting yourself to do the work because you don’t have a boss that tells you to do it.

I’ve heard that you have done a couple fash-

ion shows — what work goes into an event like that?

Originally, other peo-ple asked me to be a part of them, and at first I really didn’t feel like doing many fashion shows because it’s just one extra thing to do. But the more I thought about it, the more fun it seemed, so we hosted a model call and looked for

people around Ames who we think might fit

our look or our theme. It can

be really anyone with a fun person-

ality who wants to do it; they most often

get picked to be part of the show. Then we’re in charge of advertising and promotions and coming up with a theme for the show and how to decorate. Another designer works with me and The Grove, the apartment complex here in town, often hosts the shows.

How important is success to you?

The more I’m here at the store, the more I really enjoy being in Ames and the more I really want to be able to share all of it with Ames. It’s not so import-ant that I’m successfully known nationally. I don’t necessarily want to have more than one location anymore. But I do really

want to be successful in that everyone’s been here and people like it and that they come back and talk about it with their friends.

Can you tell me about the store’s specialty nights?

Well, we had a wine night in June and a fash-ion’s night out in the fall. It’s something fun I like to do — it gives people more things to do than just the bars or a regular night out in Ames. Our special-ty nights are a customer appreciation thing. I love meeting people and hav-ing people come into the store, so I like to do some-thing for them.

Who has been your biggest inspiration?

My dad is an entre-preneur of sorts, so I think he’s who really got me in-terested in starting my own businesses. Also other small businesses owners alike — it’s inspiring to see all those other people working.

ISU alumna Talia Jensen is the owner of the boutique Portobello Road located on Welch Avenue. Jensen gradu-ated in 2009 and moved back to Ames to fulfill her dream of owning her own store.

The Iowa Highway Commission, which would become the Iowa Department of Transportation, began in 1904 in Ames as part of Iowa State College of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts.

The commission’s ini-tial purpose was to act as an advisory agent to local municipalities.

The first director of the Iowa Highway Commission was Anson Marston, dean of the division of engineer-ing at Iowa State, who de-signed the Marston Water Tower, began the building of Engineering Hall — which became Marston Hall — and supervised the building of the Campanile and the restoration of Lake LaVerne.

“Marston’s main area of research was in road construction, culverts and sewer systems, compres-sion and pressure tests

and load distributions,” according to University Archives on the ISU library website.

Marston also devel-oped a theory used to compute backfill loads on pipes and wrote more than 200 publications on engineering, according to University Archives

Iowa State created the Marston Medal in 1938 in honor of Marston. The medal is given to recognize outstanding alumni of the College of Engineering.

“The commission was to conduct public highway demonstrations, dissemi-nate information to coun-ty supervisors, formulate standards for highway repair and construction, investigate the road prob-lems of Iowa and record and report progress to the governor each fiscal year,” according to the Iowa DOT.

According to the Iowa DOT’s website, the high-way commission was pro-ductive but hindered by a lack of funds, receiving $7,000 every two years. The commission tested road materials and built experi-mental sections of road.

The Iowa Highway Commission became a state administered orga-

nization — separate from Iowa State — on April 9, 1913. Soon after the change, it hired more em-ployees and reorganized departments to better serve the state of Iowa.

As the commission continued to adapt to the changing needs of state highways, it “slowly be-came an integral part of state and federal legisla-tive initiatives, gaining a national reputation for ex-cellence,” according to the Iowa DOT.

In 1969, Governor Robert Ray began to change the Iowa Highway Commission through the Task Force on Modernization of Iowa’s Transportation System and a transportation study by the Office of Planning and Programming.

In 1974, the Iowa General Assembly cre-ated the Iowa DOT. The legislature also created the Iowa Transportation Commission, the seven members of which are ap-pointed by the governor.

Members of the com-mission are in charge of all major investment poli-cy decisions and no more than four of them can be from the same party.

150 Years of Ames

Editor’s note: In celebra-tion of the 150th anniversa-ry of our city, the Daily will highlight prominent fig-ures, places and events in Ames’ history each week.

ISU dean begins Iowa DOT


Courtesy of Ames Historical SocietyPictured above is the Iowa Highway Commission building, now the Iowa DOT building, in 1924. The Iowa DOT has grown considerably since it’s start and is no longer part of Iowa State.

The start of August usually means the start of new leases in Ames. Many students are in the pro-cess of transitioning from one apartment to the next, and some students are left to find somewhere else to sleep because they cannot get into their new apart-ments soon enough.

Some students in Ames have to go through a period of time where they are con-sidered homeless because their previous leases are up but their new leases have not yet started. Many leases in Ames require renters to move out by July 31.

Move-in dates can range anywhere from Aug. 1 to the weekend before school starts. During this time, the rental compa-nies clean apartments and repair any damages. Some companies offer ear-ly move-in dates but there is no guarantee that the apartment will be clean or fixed.

Some renters are also able to submit a request to the manager to move in early, but not all of those applications can be accept-

ed, thus making it difficult for students to be sure if they have a place to go for the month of August.

While some places have early move-in dates, others take much longer to clean and prepare for incoming students. More maintenance and cleaning staff could to be hired to make sure that the students can move in as soon as pos-sible. The time it takes to clean and prepare the units is time that the incoming residents are living be-tween homes.

While students are upset about the issue, they also carry part of the re-sponsibility. Students that are signing leases to live in a new apartment should be aware of the dates that the leases begin and end and make arrangements if there is a time where the residents will be in interim.

Students already feel the financial pressures of school, buying food and trying to live on their own. Extra costs associated with not being able to move into a new apartment when a previous lease ends would

be having to get a storage unit, paying a prorated cost to live somewhere else in addition to August rent, paying huge fees to move in days or weeks early or hav-ing to go home and com-mute — if possible — to jobs or classes in Ames.

Many renters are forced to contact friends or relatives to find storage or a place to sleep during the transition. Unfortunately, this also leaves students in a spot where they are forced to move twice before they are settled into their new apartments.

Students should not have the struggle of look-ing for a temporary place

to live until their apartment is ready when they already have so much on their plate. Many rental places offer students a chance to move into their units be-fore they are clean, but that can upset renters when the apartment is not up to their standards.

The apartments in the Ames area should make an effort to improve mainte-nance time so that students can get quickly moved into their new units with-out having to deal with the stresses of being homeless for weeks. The faster the maintenance work is fin-ished, the sooner the new residents can move in and

start enjoying their new apartments.

But students also need to be aware of their lease start and end dates. Renters should read their entire

lease and understand that they may need to make other arrangements for the gap in between when com-panies are cleaning and fix-ing the apartments.

Editor: Katie Titus | [email protected] Wednesday, August 6, 2014 | Iowa State Daily | OPINION | 7

On Aug. 9, the Family Leadership Summit will be at Stephens Auditorium. The summit is explained on its website as a means to “educate and mobilize the conservative base regard-ing worldview application and issues that impact the family,” which at first glance seems rather innocuous as who would oppose talking about and finding solutions to family issues.

However this is not the case and is, in fact, the complete opposite. Instead of talking about real issues facing families like divorce, child abuse, domestic vio-lence or drug and alcohol use in the home, this sum-mit will inevitably focus more on opposing same-sex marriage and employment protection for members of the LGBT community.

I wish that I could just sweep this under the rug as a “typical” conservative

or Republican conference or gathering, but this is not the case. Half of the twelve sponsors of the Family Leadership Summit either have the sole purpose or are extensively active in oppos-ing same-sex marriage and LGBT rights in employment and adoption in America.

Confirmed speakers include current governors Terry Branstad, Bobby Jindal, Rick Perry and Mike Huckabee as well as sen-ators Rick Santorum, Tim Scott and Ted Cruz. Many of these speakers have abys-mal relationship with the LGBT community and are known to publically — and frequently — talk about the perils and depravity of the “homosexual lifestyle” and their fight against the “ho-mosexual agenda.”

Tony Perkins, presi-dent of the Family Research Council, a group the Southern Poverty Law Center designated as a hate group, will also be a speaker. Perkins is also the president of FRC Action,

which is a national partner in sponsoring the Family Leadership Summit.

It makes me question why some of these national political figures chose to al-ways surround themselves with groups that spew hate and lies against the LGBT community, and to what ex-tent they benefit from this.

To highlight some of the vitriol that these groups spread, I think it is only fair to start with the host organi-zation: The Family Leader. The Family Leader is led by Bob Vander Plaats, who is probably most known to Iowans for his three unsuc-cessful attempts to be the GOP candidate for Iowa governor and the master-mind behind taking down three Iowa Supreme Court justices for their role in Varnum v. Brien during the 2010 retention election.

The Family Leader and Vander Plaats regularly speak on how they “[op-pose] distortions of sexual-ity or special rights to those practicing distorted sexual

behavior” and their spon-sorship of June’s March for Marriage, led by the National Organization for Marriage, another sponsor of the summit.

The March for Marriage promoted “marriage as the union of one man and one woman is our culture’s best means of linking mothers and fathers to one another and to their children.”

It also should be men-tioned that during the 2010 retention of the above men-tioned judges, the National Organization for Marriage campaigned on a bus tour for their removal.

The National Organ-ization for Marriage has a bad record with its crusade against the LGBT commu-nity. It was the lead funder of both Prop 8 in California and Question 1 in Maine, both stripping their states of marriage equality. Its main goal is to prevent same-sex marriage and to support candidates that will defend marriage between opposite sex couples or

repeal laws allowing same-sex marriage.

Some of its main ar-guments are “marriage is about bringing men and women together so that children can have both mothers and fathers” and that LGBT parents would only “teach the next gen-eration that one-half of humanity, either mothers or fathers, are dispensable, unimportant,” but this log-ic implies that any other family structure outside of a married man and women is inferior because only suc-cessive and well-adjusted children come from hetero-sexual couples and never from same-sex couples or

adoptive or single parents.I oppose The Family

Leader and its cohorts con-vening at the summit. It is sad that these groups have spent so much money and time to oppose a segment of the American people. Their bigotry and intolerance should not be tolerated and it is sad that they chose Ames as host and that Iowa State has a Pay to Preach model for the State Center.

I hope Iowa State will back up its diversity and nondiscriminatory stance and use the money from these bigoted groups to promote and host a more inclusive and tolerant event for the LGBT community.

When driving down the gravel drive-

way to reach the Kahler Farm just outside of Cambridge, Iowa, in ear-ly August, the Iowa ico-nography is undeniable.

Rolling green hills accented with a touch of gold, patches of oak and maple trees still clinging to their summer youth and the farmhouse with a barn in the foreground.

It is no wonder that Iowa Pork Princess Katlyn Kahler fell in love with agriculture growing up in a place like this.

Kahler, who is enter-ing her sophomore year at Iowa State, is com-fortable as she exits her home in jeans and cow-boy boots to go along with her rhinestone ISU T-shirt. Kahler is just one of many ISU students participating in the Iowa State Fair.

It is a short walk from Kahler’s front door to the barn where four 300-pound pigs lay out as though they were at the beach— it is almost 90 degrees after all.

“These are my state fair pigs,” Kahler said. “They like to lounge around all day.”

Luckily, the pigs’

lazy behavior has not rubbed off on their own-er. Kahler is not only the Iowa pork princess, but she is also active in Iowa State’s Block and Bridle program, an executive member of the Bacon Expo team and an active member of Sigma Alpha Professional Agriculture Sorority.

Kahler became Iowa pork princess in January when she fin-ished runner-up to Iowa Pork Queen Sarah Wall of Iowa City at the Iowa Pork Congress in Des Moines. The two-day event tested contestants’ interview and public speaking skills along with their knowledge of the pork industry.

There was even some undercover recon-naissance going on at the event.

“They had two se-cret judges following us around to see how we interacted with people,” said Kahler. “They were kind of spying on us.”

Kahler’s faculty ad-viser Dr. Jodi Sterle, Harman endowed pro-fessor of animal science, believes Kahler has a bright future.

“Her personality and her work ethic really stand out when you talk to her,” Sterle said. “She’s one of our rising stars

even though she’s only a sophomore.”

Kahler is quick to give others credit for helping her along the way.

“My parents have been great,” she said. “Iowa State has opened up a lot of opportunities I didn’t know existed. I don’t think I would have won my crown without the help of former win-ners at Iowa State.”

Sterle touts Kahler’s enthusiasm for anything she is doing as the key to her success.

“She’s passionate about Iowa State,” Sterle said. “She’s passionate about agriculture and she’s passionate about the swine industry. She’s the kind of student we love.”

The Iowa State Fair runs from August 7 through August 17, and Kahler will be there ev-eryday representing the Iowa Pork Producers Association and Iowa State. She says she “loves talking with different people” and is ready for the event.

“Oh yeah, I’m ex-cited, stressed, nervous and ready to be done all mixed up into one,” Kahler said. “I’m most looking forward to see-ing all my friends from college that I haven’t

seen in awhile.”Kahler may not have

time to be stressed and nervous during the fair because of the hectic schedule planned for her.

“I’ll be at a multi-tude of places,” she said. “I’ll be in the parade Wednesday night, [Aug. 13]. Thursday, [Aug. 7] until Tuesday, [Aug. 12] I’ll be handing out rib-bons at the 4-H shows and the FFA hog shows. I’ll be spending a lot of time in the Animal Learning Center teach-ing people about the swine industry and I’ll be serving at the pork tent.”

“I’ll be a little bit of everywhere,” she said.

Kahler, a 2013 grad-uate of Ballard High School in Huxley, Iowa, has a few pigs entered for prizes at the fair but her favorite is Kevin, 290-pound gilt. A gilt dif-fers from a sow in that it has not yet farrowed or given birth. She will compete in the “Derby Show” at the fair.

Kevin struts around the barn, seemingly un-aware of her inevitable fate. Kahler prods her from place to place with her “show stick” used to get indifferent pigs from one place to the next.

“She was named

after my boyfriend,” Kahler said. “It’s a big inside joke based on the movie ‘Up.’ He doesn’t really like it.”

The future is wide open for Kahler, but she has recently considered attempting to earn a Ph.D. because of her ex-periences at her summer internship at Boehringer Ingelheim. Boehringer Ingelheim produc-es human and animal pharmaceuticals.

“I’m interested in getting my Ph.D. be-cause I think it’d be kind of cool to be able to make new vaccines,” Kahler said. “But I love talking to people, so it would be hard to work in a lab all day.”

The immediate fu-ture is clearer for Kahler. She’s looking forward to the new school year, es-pecially reconnecting with her friends in Block and Bridle and working on the second annual Bacon Expo.

“Last year we were named the Iowa State Campus Event of the Year,” she said. “It’s a family-oriented event where we try to teach people about the pork industry.”

Kahler believes in following the guidelines set up for pork farmers by the National Pork

Board.“In the pork indus-

try we try to follow good practices,” Kahler said. “We want to keep the environment clean, be involved in the commu-nity, keep the pork safe and keep our animals and workers safe.”

Kahler says she has enjoyed everything about being the Iowa pork princess, but there is a minor drawback.

“People give me a hard time if they see me somewhere other than a pork event and I’m not eating pork,” she said. “I do eat beef, chicken and turkey, but I prefer pork. I do actually eat other meats.”

What is the mil-lion-dollar question ev-eryone has to ask Kahler? What her favorite pork product is of course.

“That’s a really hard question,” she said. “I love it all, but my favor-ite is pork tenderloin. It’s prime. It’s awesome.”

Kahler is looking for-ward to serving people great food and educating people about the pork industry during the fair.

“Definitely stop by if you’re out at the fair,” she said. “Stop by the Iowa Pork Tent, we’d be more than happy to an-swer any question you have.”

What would fall foot-ball camp be without a bit of competition at quarterback?

Sam Richardson and Grant Rohach have found themselves in the heat of an August position battle, both vying for the starting spot under center come Aug. 30 when Iowa State welcomes North Dakota State to Jack Trice Stadium.

In 2013, Richardson started eight games before Rohach took over the final four games of the season, bringing home victories against Kansas and West Virginia.

During Iowa State’s first practice of fall camp Aug. 4, Rohach ran with the first team, just as he did in the 2014 spring game back in April when he completed 22 of his 38 passes for 171 yards.

It might seem like Rohach has the upper hand, but not according to head coach Paul Rhoads.

“It will begin to ro-tate as we go through and by day,” Rhoads said of the quarterback rotation. “Grant started with the ones in spring and start-ed with the ones today. Continuity is going to be important. Jumping back and forth with a different center and different re-

ceivers during a practice is not conducive, so we’ll do it by practices.”

Not to be forgotten is Joel Lanning, a redshirt freshman from Ankeny, Iowa. Lanning saw action in the spring game and completed seven of his 14 passes for 44 yards.

Rhoads said that making making the right throws and being able to scramble when needed are what he will be looking for on the field, but mental intangibles will also play a role in the final selection.

“They got to show leadership and with lead-ership comes intelligence and decision making,” Rhoads said. “They got to get us in the right play, make checks, understand thoroughly the offense.”

As far as a timetable for naming a starting quar-terback, it probably won’t be this week.

“I don’t know if it’s a couple weeks, but it will be awhile,” said offensive co-ordinator Mark Mangino. “We’re not ready for that yet.”

While it is still up in the air on who will be throwing the ball, the Cyclones at least have an idea of who will be catch-ing it.

Quenton Bundrage, who led the team in catch-es, receiving yards and receiving touchdowns

during his 2013 campaign, will bolster the receiving corps. Tight end E.J. Bibbs will look to not only be a force downfield, but also as a blocker in the running game.

Highly touted receiver Allen Lazard will look to throw his hat into the ring, but Mangino says he is still trying to learn, just like the other receivers.

“They all bring some-thing different to the table and it’s our job to mold them into a cohesive unit to where they understand what it is they’re doing and what’s in front of them,” Mangino said.

Meanwhile, defensive coordinator Wally Burn-ham is working with a defense he described as young but hungry.

During the first day, Burnham said that players like Luke Knott and Jared Brackens caught his eye, as well as the overall speed of the ISU defense.

“First two things I told the entire defense yesterday was we got to have a lot of knowledge,” Burnham said. “That leads to confidence and we got to play physical every day out there. We get those things going, and I think this group is very hun-gry. They like to play and I think we’ll see some big improvement the next three weeks.”

Kelby Wingert/Iowa State DailyRedshirt junior quarterback Sam Richardson passes the ball at the first fall practice Aug. 4. Richardson is competing for the starting quarterback position at the start of the season.

After practice on Aug. 4, Rhoads announced who the team had chosen to be its captains this season.

Tight end E.J. Bibbs, defensive end Cory Morrisey and center Tom Farniok were chosen by their peers to lead the team in 2014.

“Being elected captain at Iowa State is an important responsibility and it’s a huge compliment to Cory, E.J. and Tom,” Rhoads said in a press release. “First of all, it’s elected by their peers. Secondly, we take the time to discuss what goes in to it.

“We want leadership. We want decision-making and that

capability. These are guys that have to stand up sometimes to their teammates and not just pat them on the back all the time.”

Bibbs caught 39 passes for 462 yards as a junior en route to being a second team All-Big 12 selection and 2014 preseason first team All-Big 12 selection.

Farniok was listed on the Rimington Award watch list, given annually to the best center. Farniok is also a two-time All-Big 12 honorable mention selection.

Morrisey notched 52 tackles last season including 6.5 for loss. He is on the Lott Impact Trophy watch list.

An Ames company has been awarded a contract to bring an Ebola vaccine closer to human testing. An Ebola outbreak in West Africa has killed almost 900 people and infected two American aid workers.

BioProtection Systems Corporation, a subsidi-ary of NewLink Genetics Corporation, was award-ed the $1 million contract by the U.S. Defense Threat Reduction Agency.

“There is an urgent need for a medical counter-measure against the dead-ly Ebola virus,” said Dr. Charles Link, chairman and CEO of NewLink, in a news release.

The contract will fund preclinical toxicology stud-ies and the manufacture of clinical materials. More funds may be given after final negotiation, according to the news release.

“This Ebola vaccine has been 100 percent ef-fective in preventing lethal infection when given to nonhuman primates be-fore they are infected with the virus,” Link said in the news release. “The vaccine also acts rapidly enough to have significant efficacy even when given to animals that have recently received a typically lethal dose of Ebola virus.”

Ebola is spread through direct contact with bodily fluids of infected people

as well as indirect contact with surfaces contaminat-ed by those fluids, accord-ing to the World Health Organization.

Ebola is commonly spread to health care work-ers “through close contact with patients when infec-tion control precautions are not strictly practiced.”

Two American aid workers who were in Liberia to treat people in-fected with Ebola are being

treated at Emory University in Atlanta, Ga., according to multiple media outlets.

“Advancing this vac-cine into a human, Phase I safety study is a major pri-ority for NewLink and our partners, whose ongoing support will be critical for moving the project for-ward,” said Dr. Nicholas Vahanian, president and chief medical officer of NewLink, according to a news release.
