Norwood’s favorite entrepreneur-ial team Xavier Hot Dogs took its skills from Cleanay Avenue to the classroom.

Professor Leslie Rasmussen invited the team to speak dur-ing her Principles of Strategic Communication class. The goal was to discuss Xavier Hot Dog’s com-munication strategy, outreach efforts and ways the group differentiates their brand from other food vendors.

Xavier Hot Dogs, known for its easygoing approach to business, commented that this is not a seri-

ous venture, but something created to have fun.

“We don’t take this too serious-ly,” commented Alex Tilford.

Scott Stratford, the self-pro-claimed marketer of the group, be-lieves that this is also an opportunity to connect with Xavier students.

“We market our product with a story because each interaction is different and affects clients in a new way.”

Xavier Hot Dogs also discussed ways in which students can engage customers. Their success is due in large part to a strategic communi-cation strategy that utilizes social

media, has a diverse marketing strategy and connects with cus-tomers on a personal level.

Redmond Millerick told the class that as their consumers got to know the team and respect the business, they became Xavier Hot Dog’s biggest marketers.

three weeks, we had jerks criticiz-ing our business. As we grew, our customers defended us against hecklers and became loyal pa-trons,” Millerick said.

“We now receive direct mes-sages via Twitter to stay open later to keep up with demand,” Jack Carey said.

The group has catered events at off-campus events and has re-ceived offers from “legitimate Cincinnati business leaders” to in-vest in their venture, but money is not what dictates their work.

Carey, Millerick, Stratford and Tilford told the class that business is successful when people work and have fun together.

“We do Xavier Hot Dogs be-cause we love it. It’s just that sim-ple,” Stratford said.

Professor Rasmussen said she hopes that their presentation will give students insight on how to bet-ter use their communication talents on Xavier’s campus and beyond.

Men’s soccer kicks balls, but still fallsBY ANDREW UTZStaff Writer

Women’s soccer drops two games to conference foes, wins another

BY DONALD MENKEGuest Writer

Welcome back from fall break, Xavier students. While many of us headed home, relaxed and slept, women’s soccer continued to play games throughout the break.

Since the last edition, wom-en’s soccer went up against Providence, Marquette and Seton Hall, facing Providence and Seton Hall at home. The women’s team was supposed to play against Georgetown after its Providence match, but the game was post-poned due to inclement weather until Oct. 14.

Providence made its way over to Cincinnati on Oct. 1 to take on the Musketeers. Xavier played a strong game after an early goal from the Friars in minute nine of the match where the shot hit the crossbar and bounced into the back of the goal. The Friars would remain scoreless for the rest of the match, as did Xavier.

Xavier made many dangerous plays throughout the second half, such as a shot from sophomore Addie Englehart that narrowly went over the goal in the 60th

minute. Junior goalkeeper Rachel Piccus racked up seven saves for herself in this match. In the end, the score of the match was 1-0.

58th minute, followed by two more goals in the 66th and 77th minutes.

Xavier had no response to the visiting team, managing only sev-en shots to the Friar’s 17.

Redshirt freshman Ian Vicars was given a red card late in the sec-ond half, forcing the Musketeers into a 10-man situation for the rest of the match.

Junior Jake Ciricillo managed three saves throughout the night. Sophomore Matt Vesquenza led the team with three shots, yet none of the Musketeers could put one on frame.

The Musketeers have dropped out of the top-25 rankings after the conference losses, making their Big East record 1-2.

Overall Xavier’s record is cur-rently 7-4.

The team travels to New York to face St. John’s on Wednesday. The game will be broadcast at 7 p.m. on ESPN3.

On Oct. 17, the Musketeers will be facing Villanova away. The game will be broadcast on the Big East network at 3 p.m.

SportsCavaliers open preseason at Cintas

Newswire photo by Thomas vonAhlefeld

For the second straight season, LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers hosted a preseason game in front of a spirited Cintas Center.

The Cavs, as part of their “#AllforOhio” campaign, hosted the Atlanta Hawks on Oct. 7 and fell to their visitors 98-96. Star

forward James played 22 minutes and logged eight points, seven

J.R. Smith led the Cavs with 15 points while Hawks All-Star guard Jeff Teague led all scorers with 17 points.

Cleveland All-Stars Kevin Love and Kyrie Irving did not play due to injuries, while fan-favorite cen-ter Anderson Varejao returned af-

ter a season-ending Achilles injury last December.

While both teams looked rusty

While the team committed 18 turnovers, Cleveland also regis-tered 28 assists, which is well over its season average of 22.1 from last season.

As students dove into their coursework this new school year, the Xavier swim team plunged into the pool to begin competing.

Strong individual performances by seniors Mackenna Rife, Molly Kroeger and Clare Brolsma, ju-niors Emily Wagner and Taylor Jach, along with freshman Katie Kerr, propelled the team to the top spot.

Sophomore Alex Wolfred touched the wall third for the men in just less than 10 minutes. Strong performances were also turned in by senior Luke Johanns, Suriano and the 400 free team.

O’Bannon dealt tough blowIn a decision that New York

Times op-ed columnist Joe Nocera deemed a “hollow victory” for Ed O’Bannon over the NCAA, the United States Circuit Court of Appeals upheld a portion of fed-eral judge Claudia Wilken’s ruling that the NCAA’s practices violated federal antitrust laws.

The former power forward for the UCLA Bruins claimed the NCAA “used the names, images and likenesses of college athletes

compensating the athletes.” He won his antitrust lawsuit regarding the issue in August 2014.

In addition, Wilken also ruled that the NCAA is required to al-low its member institutions to compensate student athletes with $5,000 a year in addition to the money received for cost of attendance.

The case went on to a higher court, the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, where the panel ruled the latter part of Wilken’s decision as “erroneous.”

“The NCAA is not above the antitrust laws, and courts can-not and must not shy away from requiring the NCAA to play by the Sherman Act’s rules …. The Rule of Reason requires that the NCAA permit its schools to pro-vide up to cost of attendance to

their student athletes. It does not require more,” the panel wrote in regard to the case.

The panel deciding the case consisted of three judges. The panel’s decision produced a 73-page opinion regarding Wilken’s ruling. Chief Judge Sidney R. Thomas agreed with Wilken’s de-cision in favor of the additional compensations but was overruled by the other two members of the panel.

In the New York Times, Nocera wrote that while O’Bannon’s law-yer quickly labeled it a victory, the Ninth Circuit decision was a bitter blow to the former UCLA star.

Deeming the NCAA as an antitrust violater is positive for O’Bannon, but the additional compensation component is key to his argument.

While the former basketball player’s team deemed the decision a win, the NCAA’s president was also “pleased” with the outcome.

The case has made evident the strong divide in the world of col-lege athletics.

The line of amateurism and professionalism is blurred. In the future, we will likely see the market of college sports and the treatment of student athletes transform.

Following the Ninth Circuit decision, the NCAA may take the case to the U.S. Supreme Court.

Volleyball continues to rollIn the midst of conference play,

Xavier volleyball has been hard at work during the past two weeks, putting together a 2-1 stretch over Butler, Villanova and Seton Hall.

Xavier’s head coach Christy Pfeffenberger led the team to Indianapolis on Oct. 3 to steal a victory from home team Butler.

It seems to me that everyone is too preoccupied with the idea of China surpassing the United States as the world’s largest econ-omy. With the way things are go-ing, of course China will surpass the United States. The difference in population is evidence enough. China has an enormous produc-tion force behind it, so it is under-standable that China is the world’s largest manufacturing country. But then again, you probably al-ready knew that by all the tags you have saying “Made in China.” One cannot help but wonder, will any country ever surpass China? My guess and money is on India.

that this can happen: What goes up must come down, those on top eventually fall. Nothing lasts for-ever, etc. Currently, most of the countries with the largest economies have maintained their current status for quite some time. The United States has been the largest econ-omy in the world for more than 140 years. But economies are or-ganic and constantly changing. Therefore, it comes as no surprise when some economists argue that China has already surpassed the United States and has become the world’s largest economy. China time on top will not last. Instead, India will rise and claim the title of the world’s largest economy for a longer pe-riod of time than China. But is everything set in stone?

Like any economist might say, it depends. Nothing is certain; economist can only guess at the future, and predictions can be wrong. For example, many econo-mists predicted that Japan would be the country to surpass the

According to Fortune maga-zine, the Indian economy will eventually surpass China. It pre-dicts that India’s economy will grow at a rate of 8.1 percent compared to China’s intended 7 percent. In a sense, India is more productive than China, and if rates like this continue, there will be no mystery.

With Halloween a couple of weeks away, costumes have begun

desperately plan how to spend the spookiest night of the year.

Cincinnati’s wide variety of

In a continuation of coverage of major Spring/Summer ‘16 (SS ‘16) fashions during the month of fashion, a few major trends were seen recently at the famous Paris Fashion Week (PFW).

The ever-chic city hosted shows by some of fashion’s most sought-after luxury brands and designers, including Chanel, Louis Vuitton, Miu Miu and Valentino,

among countless other famous names. Despite how vastly dif-ferent these brands and design-ers may be, a few commonalities between them have led to some intriguing trends to watch for in SS ‘16.

One of the biggest trends coming from PFW for the spring and summer seasons is dressing in all black. A color traditionally reserved for win-ter and colder months, fashion

experts predict that black will be one of the must-have colors for any fashionista this coming season. Other colors predicted to be popular include extremely vibrant blues and reds, as well as the classic spring color of crisp white.

A fresh idea to look for is the layering of mismatching bright patterns as well as medi-eval style cuts and patterns for dresses and blouses inspired by

the popular HBO series “Game of Thrones.” In addition, PFW shows have included dresses featuring intricate cutout pat-terns, and layering sheer blous-es and maxi-skirts over solid underwear.

Finally, paying homage to the era of peace and love, many designers showed off hip-

and blouses in neutral greens, browns and creams from their

lines as well.As fashion month comes to

an end, fashionistas across the world have plenty of options when it comes to choosing their SS ‘16 wardrobe.

With so many emerging trends from the various fashion

in the upcoming spring and sum-mer months will be extremely varied and diverse, but stylish nonetheless.

programs during the Halloween season offer something for ev-eryone, from costume contests to haunted houses and even pump-kin picking.

Luckily for Halloween lovers, Cincinnati is home to several of the scariest haunted houses in

Ohio. The Dent Schoolhouse on Harrison Ave. offers tours of the haunted building with an empha-sis on the local legend about the schoolhouse’s grisly past. Check out Dent Thursdays and Sundays from 7:30 to 10 p.m. and Fridays and Saturdays from 7:30 p.m. to midnight.

The USS Nightmare pro-vides a unique experience as a haunted ship that was formally active. Now, however, the ship stays docked in Newport for the souls brave enough to face the USS Nightmare’s demons on Wednesdays through Sundays in October.

For those looking for a haunt-ed experience without the scare factor of a haunted house, the

Ghosts of Cincinnati bus tour explores locations like the Taft Museum, Eden Park and Music

-normal activity.

The tour even provides pas-sengers with ghost hunting equip-ment. The bus runs at 7 p.m. on Thursdays in October.

Fall on the Farm at Blooms and Berries Farm Market offers an exciting fall festival for those who love Halloween but aren’t sure how they feel about ghosts and goblins.

Fall on the Farm is the perfect atmosphere for pumpkin picking, hay rides, corn mazes and caramel apples.

Blooms and Berries is open Monday through Saturday from

10 a.m. to 7 p.m. and Sunday until 6 p.m.

Dog lovers can rejoice for the Covington Dog Costume Pawrade set for Oct. 25. With all kinds of pooches in Halloween costumes and doggie-themed activities, it is sure to be a great time for every-one in attendance.

For those less interested in dressed-up dogs and more in-terested in their own costumes, Fountain Square is hosting its an-nual costume contest on Oct. 30. With a costume contest comes the chance to win amazing prizes and have fun doing it.

Halloween is Oct. 31, so make sure to get out and experience ev-erything that Cincinnati has to of-fer for the Halloween season.

MenuFor the connoisseur on a budget... BY JAMES NEYER

The cafeteria is very cre-ative when it comes to its mac

and cheese recipes, though it can get very repetitive. You can spice this old favorite up, creating a cheap, healthier alternative. When mixing in the cheese, you can mix in a pack, or can, of tuna or salmon, along with a couple spoonfuls of bread crumbs. If you do not like tuna or salmon, which are not the most popular foods (I will admit), you can add bacon bits—or a chopped-up hot dog or two—instead. In addition, some sliced broccoli would also go very well in the mixture, adding a bit of color and potassium. These mixtures can create three to four servings, meaning that you can prepare it early in the week when you have spare time, and eat it later when you do not have the time to cook a full meal

or in case you get the “munchies.”

One meal that never fails to impress is a nice dinner of salmon, rice and asparagus. In a glass con-tainer, place the salmon in the middle with the as-

paragus surrounding it. I coat the salmon with a little bit of mayonnaise and melt some but-

ter to drizzle on top of the aspara-gus. Then I sprinkle some lemon pepper seasoning. Place the salmon in the oven and cook it at 400 de-grees for around 20-25 minutes, depending on the size of the filet. You can tell when it is finished when the salmon has changed color on the inside from a translucent clearish color to a hearty, cloudy pink. While it is not difficult to cook, salmon can be a somewhat more expensive dish to make. If of age, a nice white wine can comple-

ment your dish. This recipe yields two to three portions.

Ramen is a traditional college food, mostly because it is cheap and easy to cook. If I had a nickel for ev-ery pack of ramen I have cooked, I would have enough money to eat ramen for a month straight. While most generic store-bought ramen is not very healthy—or all that tasty—that can be changed by a supply of cheap vegetables. After the water for the ramen has been boiled, you can add some corn, green beans and peas. Add these in while cooking the noodles, possibly including an egg if that is to your liking. A bit of soy sauce or crushed red pepper adds a nice tasty kick to the meal without making it less healthy.
