The Digital Multimedia Communications department at CCC has recently helped Oregon’s First Lady, Cylvia Hayes, get 1,000 pledges for her challenge. On March 22 three DMC stu-dents went to the Governor’s Mansion to film Hayes’ ‘I Will If You Will’ Earth Hour challenge. DMC instructor Andy Mingo put together the team of student vid-eographers who successfully cre-ated the video, though it was last minute.

“The schedule kept shifting and when it was finally set, we had under 24 hours,” said Mingo.

In the 60 second video, Hayes asks people to reduce phantom energy by unplugging charged devices and using a power strip for electronic devices so they can be switched off when not in use. The Earth Hour YouTube channel where the video is posted states:

‘Thanks for supporting Earth Hour this year. Go beyond the

hour and support my challenge and eliminate phantom power! Cylvia Hayes, Oregon’s First Lady challenges you to lessen your “Phantom Load.” Even when electronics are turned off, they keep using electricity. This “Phantom Load” and can increase electricity consumption by 10 percent. Unplug fully charged devices, connect TVs and stereos to power strips that can be turned off completely when not in use. I will be made up into a monster by special effects make-up artists if 1000 people will lower your “Phantom Load” by unplugging your electronic devices when not in use during the months of April and May. Accept my challenge now.”

Hayes goal was to get 1,000 people to pledge to her chal-lenge. She stated that if her goal was reached, she would go to the set of Grimm to be turned into a hexenbiest (witch-like creature).

“Which is a painstaking deal, a number of hours of makeup and prosthetics,” explained Mingo.

Three Crunchy Taco Supremes, a Cheesy Gordita Crunch and a Mexican Pizza from Taco Bell might not seem like the meal of champions, but for Detroit Tigers ace pitcher Justin Verlander, these items comprise his pre-game meal. According to Taco Bell’s website, the meal delivers a colossal 1,630 calories, 96 grams of fat and 2,300 mg of sodium.

The fact that Verlander, at 6’5 and 225 pounds, will prob-ably burn that many calories during his pitching start is the reason he can get away with eating a gut bomb like that. I got to wondering if athletes at Clackamas Community College were focused on eating healthy or if they ate like their peers at cheap fast food places.

I found that most athletes said they ate healthy, especially dur-ing the season or on game days and this was especially true of wrestlers. Head track and field coach Keoni McHone talked

about some of the difficulties in getting young athletes to eat right.

“We talk in general about nutrition with our athletes, but unless we see something specific, we usually don’t address it too much, because sometimes it goes in one ear and out the other,” said McHone. “Forty percent or more of our athletes live on their own, they are on college budget and busy schedule and they don’t want to cook.”

Add all that up and it’s tough for the college athlete to stay on top of a healthy diet. Still, most athletes at CCC said they gener-ally eat healthy food. Distance runner Badane Sultessa runs more than 50 miles per week, so he doesn’t worry about nutrition too much.

“I don’t eat fast food. I eat good food, but I don’t really care or think too much about it,” said Sultessa. “I don’t take any supplements. I just eat good food and keep running. I eat a lot of breads, vegetables and pasta – that kind of food.”

UNPLUG: Oregon’s fi rst lady gets a Grimm makeover

Mae Kinglove was one of the current students who worked on the video. Outside of the class-room she fabricates everything from shoe displays to sets. Her talents contributed to the overall success of Hayes’ goal.

“When we went to the gover-nor’s house, basically we went, we scoped out the location, where the best place to film it would be. We set up our gear and stuff and filmed it,” said Kinglove.

When videographer Sammi Rivera isn’t in the classroom she is the director of video produc-tion for TQ monthly, an LGBTQ newspaper. Hayes’ video is one of many in Rivera’s professional portfolio.

“It was kind of a big deal because she’s Oregon’s first lady and she’s a big activist and a real-ly sweet lady. The Oregon Film Office was there. The governor’s office was there,” said Rivera. “She was really fun and just a sweet, sweet lady. It was a lot of fun to work with her. She wasn’t difficult to work with at all. It was a good time.”

The third Clackamas student of the videography crew was Gordon Christiansen. Recently graduating with a degree in digi-tal media, Christiansen was hired on at CCC to create videos for the distance learning program. He has also been working with the public affairs department on the sustain-ability event on campus. Outside of Clackamas, Christiansen is co-enrolled at PSU for his bachelor’s in film theory.

“The pledge was basically for getting people to reduce their electric use, leaving their elec-tronics on and what not,” said Christiansen. “I pledged.”

Hayes met her goal of 1,000 pledges and as promised, went down to the set of Grimm to be turned into a hexenbiest by pro-fessional makeup artists. After

the success of the first video, the videography crew was invited to film again, this time at the Grimm set.

“It was a really good expe-rience. Rubbing shoulders with those divisions. The one at the Grimm set was really fun. I personally had never seen any-one made up like that before.” said Christiansen. “Being on the Grimm property was just fantas-tic. It was one of those, I don’t know how to explain it, you were just doing what you want to do. I knew I was in the right spot. The people I want to be around, I need to be around.”

The first video was filmed, edited and uploaded to a file-share program within approxi-mately two hours. Video of Hayes’ hexenbiest transformation was released Monday and can be viewed at http://goo.gl/0Wli2.

“It’s really an honor to do this for the first lady in that it gives our students a professional foot in the door,” said Mingo. “It would be really helpful to us if we could get people to visit the site and pledge.”

You can view Hayes’ pledge video on Earth Hours Global Channel at http://goo.gl/CNbPA. It isn’t too late to pledge; reduce your phantom load and energy bill.

Professional makeup artist Barney Burnham works on making Oregon’s first lady Cylvia Hayes into a hexenbiest. The process to turn her into the hexenbiest took many hours, prosthetics and makeup artists.

The DMC students visited the Grimm set when Cylvia Hayes had her Grimm makeup applied. “Being on the Grimm property was just fantastic,” said Gordon Christiansen, second from the left.

“It’s really an honor to do this for the fi rst lady in that it gives our students a professional foot in the door.”

Clackamas distance coach Jerret Mantalas has been expect-ing a fast 800-meter race from sophomore Austin Collins this season. On Friday night at the Oregon Relays in Eugene, expec-tations met reality for Mantalas as Collins broke a 29-year old school record by placing fourth in 1:50.84 in a race won by Olympian and former Oregon Duck Andrew Wheating in 1:49.24.

“It’s the race that we all knew he was gonna have eventually,” said Mantalas. “He hit it. He’s got so much more left in the tank, the way he ran it, he can come close to that ever daunting 1:49 barrier.”

Collins was followed imme-diately by CCC redshirt Badane Sultessa in 1:50.85, who also dipped under the former school record from 1984 by Yul Provancha of 1:50.90. Sultessa is running unattached while red-shirting, so he must wait until next season until his times count towards the CCC record books.

“With 120 to go, Austin catch-es a lane up the inside and Badane catches a lane on the outside and they basically both rally past six guys,” said Mantalas. “It’s really, really cool that we have two guys on this team right now, granted one redshirting, that both of them have now run faster than anyone else at Clackamas has ever run.”

The Cougars turned right around on Saturday, hosting the Cougar Open at Oregon City High School’s track stadium. Athletes from eight different schools competed as Clark CC, SWOCC, Mt. Hood CC, Lane CC, Central Oregon CC, Oregon State and Western Oregon joined CCC in fielding competitors.

The highlight of the meet for Clackamas came midway through the running events as the Cougars

swept both the men’s and wom-en’s 800 races. First, Clackamas’ Randi Chance took over with 500 to go in the women’s race, before running away from the field on the homestretch to win in 2:30.00.

Then in the men’s race, Clackamas’ Austin Peila and Chris Stash held back early before cruising to a 1-2 finish in lifetime personal bests for both runners. Peila won in 1:57.88, about an hour after placing fifth in the 1,500 in 4:06.97— another life-time best. Stash finished second in 1:58.62, also running barely one hour after a 1,500 race.

“I was way stoked. It was a really good race,” said Peila. “It was really fun running with Chris, because we were looking to go fast today. I think the 1,500 really helped me get loose for the 800.”

Shelby Grubb, normally a 100/200 runner, dug deep on the homestretch of the 400 in a neck and neck battle with Mt. Hood’s L.T. Avants, to win with a great time of 50.23 to Avant’s 50.25. It was only Grubb’s third 400 of his life, but after running a great time it might become his new event.

“Shelby had a great race,” said Peila. “He’s never really ran open 400s really, so just to see him go out and run 50 point something, it was great.” Grubb has always focused on the shorter sprints, but that might be changing.

“I didn’t think I ever was a 400 runner. He (Coach Keoni McHone) just put me in just as a workout,” said Grubb. “I tried my best and I felt really good.” Asked if more 400s are in his future, Grubb was up for improv-ing on his time.

“Absolutely, my coach will probably put me in it,” said Grubb. “I’ll try to get better, get into the 49s.” Peila said that see-ing Chance and Grubb win their races just before his inspired him up to do well.

“It was really cool to see all my teammates do really well and

it kind of got us fired up to con-tinue to do well,” said Peila.

The Cougar men placed well in numerous events in the meet. Joey Haynes won the Hammer with a toss of 152-11. Jake Cleverly won the 200 in 23.20 and placed third in the 400 in 51.21. Chase Davis placed third in the pole vault, clearing 14-0, and fourth in the 110 high hurdles in 16.66.

On the women’s side for CCC, Taylor Ballard placed sec-ond in the pole vault by clearing 8’11.75, while garnering fifth in the 100 hurdles in a personal best 16.64. Lexie Govert placed third in the 400 in 62.26, while Morgan Grubb placed fourth in the 100 in 13.80.

Several other Cougars also turned in top ten all-time school marks during the Oregon Relays at Hayward Field. Sophomore distance runner Cia Bywater moved up to third on the 5,000-meter list with a time of 17:56.84 and moved into fifth spot on the 10K list with a time of 39:13.96. Bywater’s performance in the 5,000 set a personal record by almost one minute for an unbelievable improvement.

Freshman jumper Elizabeth Venzon is ranked sixth all-time in the triple jump with a mark of 36’ 4.25 and now ranks tenth in the long jump with a jump of 17’ 3.25. Sophomore thrower Tiffany Forbito is now ranked fifth all-time in the javelin with a throw of 148’3.

In earlier events this season, sophomore hurdler Mariah Villa moved into tenth with a time of 15.30 in the 100m hurdles while sophomore distance runner Brad Prettyman turned in a time of 3:52.69 at the Willamette Invite to move into the seventh spot on the men’s 1,500m top ten list.

The Cougars head to the Titan Twilight at Lane CC in Eugene, OR on Thursday, April 25, before hosting the NWAACC Multi-Events Championships April 29-30.

Embracing the Prefontaine

Spirit

Spring is the time of year when I’m reminded why track and field in Oregon is such a sweet thing. Many tremendous marks were performed at last weekend’s Oregon Relays and Oregon men’s dual meet with Arkansas at historic Hayward Field in Eugene, showcasing a wide range of prep, college and elite track and field talent.

The local enthusiasm for track and field was built by legendary Oregon coach Bill Bowerman in the 1960s and it was cemented when Steve Prefontaine, the young prodigy from Coos Bay, grew into a countercultural icon in the early 70s before prematurely dying at age 24 in a tragic auto accident. Eugene has become the mecca of track and field ever since.

The spirit of ‘Pre’ lives on every year with the running of the Prefontaine Classic, which has turned into one of the top meets in the world. This year’s version runs June 5 at Hayward Field, but it is not the only track meet that Oregon athletes are shooting for. The NCAA Championships will be held from June 5-8 and all six Oregon high school divisions, from 6A to 1A, will compete together in one of the largest meets ever held in Oregon from May 23-25 at the OSAA State Championships.

Both meets are scheduled for Hayward Field, making it one of the best places to be for a die-hard track junkie at the beginning of every summer. The crowds that turn out for meets at Hayward are legendary not only for their size, but for their enthu-siasm and knowledge.

It was hard to pick a high-light of the two meets, but you know that I’ll try. Oregon prep record holders now running for the Ducks, sophomore Sam Crouser of Gresham and senior Elijah Greer of Lake Oswego, both won their signature events against Arkansas.

Greer won the 800 meters in 1:46.20, the fastest time in the nation this season. Crouser won the javelin and the discus, throw-ing the disc a season’s best 174-2 and the javelin 240-7.

Two former Oregon City High School stars are performing well early in their Duck careers. Freshman Greg Skipper won the hammer with a toss of 206-0, while redshirt freshman Trevor Ferguson set a personal record in the long jump by leaping 24-10.5. Ferguson also placed third in the 110 high hurdles in 14.34.

Current Oregon preps were well represented at the Oregon Relays as numerous state bests were set. Grant’s sensational freshman Ella Donaghu defeat-ed St. Mary’s Paige Rice in the 1,500, running 4:31.56 to Rice’s 4:32.14. They are the fastest times in the state this year.

West Albany’s Rachel Proteau cleared 5-10 in the high jump, becoming one of just six girls in state history to clear that bar. Molalla’s Claire Thomas, an Oregon signee, placed second in the 100 hurdles in 14.71 and won the 300 hurdles in 44.40.

Jesuit’s Max Dordevic ran one of the most impressive times of the day, winning the 300 hurdles in 37.89. The Oregon boys stepped up in the distance races as well as Westview’s Alec Smith won the 800 in 1:52.80 and Beaverton’s Dan Oekerman sped to 3:56.88 in the 1,500.

While all of those marks are state leading times now, all of these athletes know that a month from now they will probably need to run faster to win a state championship in their respective event. I’m just glad that I live in Oregon and will get a chance to watch it happen.

Andrew MillbrookeSports Editor The Cougar softball team is

back in the thick of the South Region championship race after Clackamas unleashed a barrage of offense in drubbing Clark, 16-4 and 16-0, in a double-header last week in Vancouver, Wash. The wins moved Clackamas (19-12, 7-3) within a half game of Mt. Hood for the South Region lead. The Cougars got production all throughout the lineup in the sweep of Clark.

Freshman Breann Morrison excelled on the mound and at the plate in game one, hitting her first home run of the season to go along with four runs batted in while pitching five innings to get the win. Sophomore Tasha Silvius added two more hits and four RBIs to continue her torrid hitting on the season. Silvius is hitting .465 after the doubleheader. Both Silvius and freshman Rashaun Sells (.481) are among the NWAACC leaders in batting average and Silvius is tied for third in home runs with eight.

Nine players got hits in the nightcap against Clark as fresh-man pitcher Alyson Boytz gave up four hits in five innings while not allowing a run to get the win. The Cougars took advantage of nine Clark errors, scoring nine runs in the first inning to jump all over the Penguins. Two sophomore middle infielders did the most damage, as shortstop Megan Malvick and sec-ond baseman Kara Hilton had two hits apiece to lead the Cougars.

The Cougars travelled to Yakima, Wash. this weekend for the NWAACC Crossover Tournament, playing four games against non-South Region oppo-nents. The Cougars played well in the tournament going 2-2, with two one-run losses.

On Saturday, the Cougars beat Walla Walla 8-3 and lost to Wenatchee Valley 8-7. On Sunday, Clackamas lost 5-4 to Douglas College after rallying from a 4-0

hole to tie it in the sixth inning, only to see Douglas win it in the seventh. Clackamas drubbed Blue Mountain 14-3 in the final game Sunday. The Cougars jumped all over the Timberwolves, scoring four runs in the second and six in the third to break the game open.

Upcoming Schedule: The Cougars travel to Salem on Saturday for a doubleheader against Chemeketa at Noon. Clackamas returns home on Saturday, May 4 with a doubleheader against Lower Columbia College at Noon.

Baseball

Halfway through league sea-son, the Cougar baseball team continues to struggle for consis-tency after getting swept by Linn-Benton on Saturday, 11-4 and 6-2. Clackamas (8-18, 4-10) has lost

four straight games after a four game winning streak had put them back in the mix in the conference race. The Roadrunners outhit the Cougars 25 to 8 during the sweep.

The Cougars didn’t start the second half of South Region play on the right foot last week, losing a double header to Lane at home, 9-1 and 4-1. The Cougars had a chance to move in front of the Titans with a sweep of their own, but Lane handled Clackamas eas-ily for the second time this season. Lane (13-13, 9-5) has swept all four games against the Cougars, outscoring Clackamas 29-7 in the process.

Upcoming Schedule: The Cougars travel to Gresham to face rival Mt. Hood in a doubleheader on Saturday, before returning home for games on Tuesday, April 30, starting at 1 p.m. against SWOCC. The Cougars played Chemeketa yesterday at home, but results were not available by press time.

Sultessa said that he eats a lot of Ethiopian and Kenyan foods. Sultessa is lucky to have a mother who cooks a lot of homemade Ethiopian food and an aunt who owns an Ethiopian restaurant on Hawthorne in Portland.

Injera, a large sourdough flat-bread that is the staple of the Ethiopian diet, is usually served with a wat (stew) that includes vegetables and spicy meats. The injera is used to pick up bits of the other foods, as utensils are rarely used in Ethiopian culture.

Sultessa, originally from Ethiopia, moved to Kenya for a few years before coming to the U.S., so he enjoys eating ugali also, which is the Kenyan equiva-lent to injera. Ugali is a cornmeal dough that is cooked and used in the same way as injera to pick up and eat entrées and side dishes.

CCC sophomore volleyball libero Maeghan Angel, who has signed a full ride scholarship to NAIA Lindsey Wilson College in Columbia, Ky., said she always ate well on game days with a breakfast like oatmeal, toast and orange juice followed by lunch of a sandwich, usually turkey.

“I feel I eat healthy, but I could do better,” said Angel. “I was a

vegetarian for two years, so I had to think about what I was doing to get protein. Now, I’m a little freer, but I watch it. I don’t eat a bunch of junk. I’m a big snacker. I eat crackers and fruit throughout the day.”

Wrestling coach Josh Rhoden is a big proponent of nutrition and laments the lack of a full service cafeteria with longer hours on campus. It makes perfect sense that wrestlers, who are forced to weigh in before each match, are intrigued by what they put in their bodies.

“We try to talk a lot about nutrition,” said Rhoden. “We’ve

got to where we bring in supple-ments. We use protein and oats after hard workouts with weights. Without having a cafeteria on campus, it’s really hard for these guys to do things right. It’s just more convenient to just hit up Haggen’s and the deli or whatever else.”

Although Clackamas does have a cafeteria on campus, it does not have the open hours or the menu items that Rhoden would like. Just before the nation-al tournament last season, Rhoden and his wife even cooked for some of the guys on the team.

“Even the last couple weeks, my wife and I have taken guys food for dinner,” said Rhoden recently. “It was like, ‘Here’s what you’re gonna eat tonight. Make sure they get a certain amount of protein and carbs.’”

Rhoden said that 174 pound national champion Trent Noon was the most intense about con-trolling his eating habits and I found it to be absolutely true.

“He’s (Noon) pretty freakish about what he eats now, because he came down from 205 pounds to 174, so he just has to be,” said Rhoden. Noon said it was a pro-cess cutting so much weight when interviewed before nationals.

“I started at 200 pounds and I was still really fit,” said Noon.

“I slowly went down on my por-tions. I snack throughout the day. I eat oatmeal, a lot of eggs, salad, chicken and a lot of water, any-thing that gives me a lot of energy. I eat small portions, eight meals throughout the day, it feels like I’m eating a lot and it keeps my body burning a lot of stuff.” Noon was weak when he first dropped the 25 pounds.

“At first, when I first got down to 174, the weight cut really hurt me,” said Noon. “After I main-tained it and kept at it, I walk around now and try not to get over 185. If I can hold it around there, that is when I feel good when I perform.”

Noon is able to keep to a strict dietary regimen because of his intense workout routine during the season.

“I work out three times a day: workout in morning, then wres-tling practice, then another work-out after wrestling practice,” said Noon. “That and schoolwork, I’ve got to stay on top of my stuff right now.” Noon allows himself one day to relax during the season.

“Sometimes after a win, I have one day where I can eat whatev-er,” said Noon. I break it for that day, but the next day I’m back on it. I’m always just staying on it.” Noon said ice cream is one thing that he usually will have on his

day off.That is the kind of attitude

and commitment which lead to a national title for Noon, so what do we need to do to get all athletes at CCC to train and commit to their diet like that?

McHone has one good idea. “It would be good to find a menu plan with the most calories per dollar.” Whether it is due to cost or time, young athletes will con-tinue to struggle to find a healthy balance in their diet, but most CCC athletes tend to be pretty smart about what they eat.

Fruits and vegetables offer many essential vitamins and nutrients that athletes need to stay strong and keep up their energy. Eggs and whole grain bread offer much needed protein and car-bohydrates. Students try to eat well, but who can resist a Doritos taco?

Eat, Print, Love

Obsession leads to MORE

bacon

You know what makes a good meal great? Bacon. You know what makes a great meal awesome? More bacon. As if it were ever in debate, bacon is indeed the food of the gods, guaranteed to sat-isfy almost every man, woman and child to piggy perfection. Luckily, we here at Eat, Print, Love completely understand the obsession and love affair that the populace at large has fallen for. We will of course do our best to provide you with yet another mouthwater-ing option to this staple of human existence.

Below you’ll find a bois-terous bacon bounty that can serve as an appetizer for sev-eral or a meal for few – though one thing is for sure, you’ll find yourself coming back to this recipe time and time again for its gooey, bacon-y good-ness.

Bacon Rolls1 lb bacon

8 oz cream cheese1 clove of garlic, minced

1 tsp chopped chivesPinch of salt

Freshly ground pepper5-6 slices of bread

Toothpicks

First off, as devastating as it is to mar perfection, go ahead and slice the bacon in half and set aside. In a small bowl, combine softened cream cheese with the garlic, chives, salt and pepper to taste.

Using the classic house-wife’s go-to blunt weapon of choice (a rolling pin), flatten the bread and it may be ben-eficial to chop off the crusts (depending on the bread), if nothing else this will give you a square piece to work with.

Lay out four pieces of bacon (it’s raw, don’t lick your fingers yet, I promise it’s worth the wait) and place one a flattened slice of bread on top. Spread a bit of the cream cheese mixture over the bread like slathering a sandwich with peanut butter.

Roll up the bread and bacon as you would an over-priced Persian rug and secure with four to five toothpicks about an inch apart. Repeat this process until you have run out of bacon and are teeter-ing on the edge of starvation. Place all your fancy little rolls on a baking sheet and then freeze until firm. (Remember, patience is a virtue.)

Once firm, slice rolls into four to five pieces pieces, each secured with a toothpick. If you aren’t ready to cook them up for hungry guests, you can either refrigerate or freeze at this point until you’re ready closer to an impending meal service or go ahead and cook them up (because let’s face it, you can’t wait any longer). When you’re ready, preheat oven to 425 degrees and place rolls – not touching – on a broiler pan. You’ll want to bake these little babies for 20 to 30 minutes or until bacon has crisped.

Serve with your dipping concoction of choice or plain as to not hide any of the bacon-y goodness from your des-perate taste buds. Either way, once you’ve tried them, we here at Eat, Print, Love offer your stomach a hearty “you’re welcome,” and bid you a kind reminder to share (though as it IS bacon, for sheer peace of mind sharing is not required or recommended).

Everyone has had either a written list or maybe just a men-tal list of things they wanted to do before they ‘kick the bucket.’ These are the dreams of what people really want to accomplish in life. Some may put them off until the later stages in life and some may start checking off their bucket list items starting as teen-agers.

Bucket lists became more popular after the 2007 release of the movie “The Bucket List” star-ring Jack Nicholson and Morgan

Freeman. Of course the term was always used, but people started to realize that you never really know how long you have to live and there are some things you need to do before you die.

CCC counselor Stephanie Schaefer gave some input on why people create bucket lists.

“I think it depends on the person. It serves as a reminder of what people want to accomplish in life,” said Schaefer.

With the rise in tragedy and health problems, people start to think that life is short and they want to accomplish everything they have ever dreamed. Some of the bucket list items that people have are quite thrilling, like sky-

diving or climbing a mountain. Many will not ever pursue their goal, but for the ones that do not lose sight of their dream, they will have the best memories.

A new student this term, Shelby Coran, wants to go to lineman school to be a line work-er as her career, but she has more dreams she wants to accomplish in her life.

“I’ve always wanted to hike Mt. Hood. I’ve never hiked a mountain before,” said Coran.

Traveling is a very common bucket list item. Whether it is just to see different states or to backpack around Europe, this is probably the easiest to check off your list.

Melissa Stewart, a fourth term student at CCC, wants to travel across the United States and look at all the history that our country has.

“I want to see all the ridiculous monuments around the United States. I wanna pack a bus and travel the whole U.S. I would love it,” said Stewart.

Another CCC student, Angela Mclean, wants to see the pyra-mids in Egypt.

No matter how young or old you are, setting goals and dreams is a necessity to live a good, healthy life. You do not have to write down a list of things to do, but have high dreams and enjoy the life you live!
