Deanna Miklos and her production crew of her show, Humor Me, focus on the task at hand. BREAKING NEWS Continued from p. 43 got your debut on television,” he said. Chris Juengel, another communications media professor, emphasizes the importance of being involved with the station. (read more) “I was a student here at IUP and was a part of IUP-TV and I can’t stress enough how much it helped me for my career path,” he said. He jokes that even though he hasn’t started that path yet, he knows that once he does, he’ll credit his time with the station for his success and knowledge in the television industry. Anthony Scherer, a senior communications and journalism major from Monroeville, has been a part of IUP- TV since his freshman year. “I think it is a really great opportunity for communications media majors to get their feet wet and gives them practice in the broadcasting and television field,” Scherer said. “I have had so many awesome experiences by being a part of this station.” So whether you’ve always seen yourself on television, or maybe just behind the scenes, head on over to IUP-TV and get a jump start in the right direction! Eat Here, Not There Continued from p. 35 Because Valley Dairy is an older establishment, some people stated that the restaurant did not seem as clean as it could be. Valley Dairy is known for their ice cream, but multiple people stated that the ice cream was “icy, watery and low quality.” If you want more information about Valley Dairy, you can contact them at (724) 349-6052, or visit their website at http://www. valleydairy.net/locations.html. These four restaurants are not the only restaurants that are talked about in Indiana. Many people have opposing views on other restaurants as well. First, we have Ruby Tuesday, a chain restaurant located right across the street from Eat’n Park. People seem to agree that the food is delicious, but that it is way too expensive. People also stated that the wait is always long, but that the workers are very well-mannered and kind. Another restaurant many people talk about is Kim Moon, a Chinese/Japanese restaurant located at 718 Philadelphia St. First, people found that their prices are cheap and affordable. Others have said that it is the best Chinese restaurant in town. Many people have also stated that the sushi is amazing. Another restaurant talked about in Indiana is Perkins, another chain restaurant similar to Eat’n Park as it serves breakfast among other things. Customers have reported that Perkins has a nice atmosphere and that it is very familyoriented. Multiple people stated that the food comes out quickly and that the prices are inexpensive. A negative review found here is that the wait can be fairly long. One other restaurant that has many different reviews is Romeo’s Pizzeria. Romeo’s is located at 1112 Oakland Ave. One major positive thing about Romeo’s is its late hours – it is open until 3 a.m. on most nights. Many people find the pizza and breadsticks to be “delicious.” Other people find Romeo’s to be too expensive, and some find the service to be “terrible.” Tres Amigos is the final restaurant that will be focused on, as it is one of the newer restaurants in Indiana. Tres Amigos is a Mexican restaurant located at 1540 Oakland Ave. The main positive review found was that the wait staff and service is “phenomenal.” At this restaurant, you get an enormous amount of food for a cheap price. The food comes out “hot, fast and delicious!” From all of the reviews, it is apparent that the most popular item served at Tres Amigos are the margaritas; they are strong yet delicious. So, although there was no clear winner or loser for the best and worst restaurant to dine at in Indiana, there are many helpful reviews that can enable a person to make that decision. In the end though, it isn’t up to someone else to make the decision as to where a person should dine at in Indiana. People need to go out and discover that for themselves. 52 Lights! Campus! Action!

Spending a Night On The Couch By: Ticairra N. Bazemore It’s Friday night and while everyone else is out drunkenly parading around Philadelphia street, trying to avoid the cops and entertain themselves for the evening. Someone, somewhere is settling in for a nice evening away from the madness of the weekend. Sometimes you just want to stay inside and snuggle and other times your house is where the party is. Either way your place can easily be the perfect location to unwind with just a few simple steps. Instead of going out and paying extra cash to barely hear what’s coming out in theatres, have a seat on the sofa, kick your feet up, pop some popcorn, hit the lights and be entertained by the best actors and actresses of all time from the comfort of your very own living room. Hate watching alone? Grab that special somebody and turn your movie night into a gaming tournament made for two, players that is. Your special someone not a fan of video games think of other ways to make that game night a romantic rendevous. Finishing up the evening can be just as great, with a few phone calls and some music you can easily turn that date night into the house party of the year. Spring 2012 Lights! Campus! Action! 53
