Editorial

So I heard there is going to be a zom-

bie apocalypse this wednesday night,

pfff, I bet it will just be like that Mayan

thing, all the hype none of the pay

off. Just in case though I have a few

zombie survival tips for you all.

1. It’s not necrophilia if they’re trying to

eat your brains.

2. Be selective about the zombies you

kill, as there might be a cure for the

infection in the future it would be a

damn shame if you whacked all the

cute ones.

3. Seek out and find a bunch of peo-

ple with good survival skills, such as

being able to write with both hands,

pitching a tent, being Bear Grylls, hav-

ing no emotion when throwing some-

one to the zombies as a decoy so the

rest of the group can survive, likes the

taste of dog or cat food, smells good

even after weeks of not showering.

4. Just stay in and watch a movie.

5. I know you might have heard good

things about zombie bites, I must ad-

mit there is a certain allure, a sensual

attraction, a mysterious yet danger-

ous appeal, no wait sorry that’s

just me thinking about Twilight again,

nevermind.

6. Always run with scissors, you never

know when you might run into a

zombie.

There you have it, hope you all take

on my advice and stay safe this

Wednesday, (if anything even hap-

pens). Remember if you see a zombie

walking over the hill, they are prob-

ably not really a zombie, although it

gets harder and harder to tell the lon-

ger the night goes on and the more

they drink.

I think just avoid all contact with mov-

ing things in the night.

Eating Out In WaggaThe Fatmans guide to the culinary delights that is food that won’t kill you in Wagga

From a man who has eaten in every city in Australia at some of the best Hamburger Take Aways, Pub Feeds, and Chinese and Indian etc restaurants that can be found. These are my picks for Wagga’s best offerings

Take away

Closest to Uni is the Island View Take away, go the hamburger with the lot.

Chinese

Next to the Farmers Home Hotel in Fitzmaurice street the Doo Duck Inn, serve a nice vegetarian fried rice.

Indian

Indian Tavern Tandoori Restaurant. The butter chicken is really good as it doesn’t burn your face of when you eat it and their Naan bread is

always nice and fresh.

Pub Meals

I’ve eaten at every Pub in Wagga and this does depend on which chef is working at the time as the chefs do tend to move about a bit.

The Vic. They know how to cook and rest a steak but salads are a little small though

The Duke. Get the Duke Burger it’s a great meal for a good price

Romanos. Do a nice Beer battered fish.

The Outsiders

There’s also one other place that I don’t mind frequenting now and again either.

Coolamon (the bottom) Pub. Recently put on a new chef and she makes a cracking Parmy with steamed veggies.

The Social Sport Report

The Social Sport Report

Social sport started off with a bang for the year! With 30 teams split into 2 pools, Gemma Carey and Amelia Ansell, who are the co-ordinators for social sport this year, had their hands full organis-ing everything for the first round of Social sport. Evidently, from the copious amounts of skill, enthusi-asm, competition and bulk enjoy-ment had, the two did a great job organising the first round as it ran smoothly and they should be highly commended on their ef-forts.

There were some clear standouts in team performances, who domi-nated in either soccer or netball, as well as some teams that, well, weren’t quite ‘In the zone’, but don’t let that get your sprits down, as there is still many weeks left of social sport to get everyone team tactics ironed out. Here are the results for the first round of social sport.

Round 1 - 18.03.2013

Easy Baking

Easy baking: MAKE YOUR OWN YUMMY EASTER TREATS

CHOCALATE EASTER CRACKLES (Makes 20 crackles) Ingredients: 200g Mars bars (chopped) 2 tablespoons thin cream 2 tablespoons cocoa powder (sifted) 3 cups Rice Bubbles 20 small chocolate Easter eggs (to decorate)

Method: Place the Mars bars, thin cream and cocoa in a heatproof bowl over simmering water (making sure bowl does not touch the water). Stir until mixture is melted and smooth. Place Rice Bubbles in a large bowl and pour in Mars bar mixture and stir until well combined. Heap mixture into paper or foil cases and decorate each crackle with an Easter egg. Place in the fridge until firm to serve.

CHOCOLATE NESTS (Makes 8 nests) Ingredients: 200g milk or dark chocolate melts (melted) 100g red glace cherries (quartered) 2 tablespoons pistachio kernels (chopped) 2 tablespoons roasted unsalted peanuts (chopped) 1/2 cup mini marshmallows (chopped roughly) 200g milk chocolate (melted) 1/2 cup shredded coconut 8 mini chocolate Easter eggs

Method: Using the back of a spoon, coat 8 holes of an 8cm x 6cm (1/4 cup-capacity) egg shaped mould with melted melts, reserving 1 tablespoon chocolate (use later for attaching mini eggs). Refrigerate moulds for 20 minutes until set. Combine cherries, pistachios, peanuts, marshmallows, milk chocolate and 2 tablespoons of coconut in a bowl. Spoon mixture into the moulds and lightly press down with the back of spoon. Top with remaining coconut, and then refrigerate for 30 minutes until set. Carefully remove eggs from moulds. Use reserved chocolate to attach mini eggs to tops, and serve.

TIPS * Use your favourite type of chocolate (dark, milk or white)

and nuts to create your own special recipe twist.

* Melt chocolate easily by placing it in a microwave safe bowl, and then setting it on high for 1-2 minutes. Stir with a metal spoon every 30 seconds until chocolate is melted and smooth.

Over a cup of tea this

morning, I heard about my

cousin, she’s very unhappy,

depressed and a possible

suicide-watch case. This

makes me sad. But more

than anything it makes me

want to reach out to help.

To drag her away on some

kind of adventure – to feel

alive again!

In a personal crisis what do

you do?

Sometimes people wallow.

Sometimes people run.

I run! And a few years ago

that’s what I did. I didn’t like

the idea of my university

course. Didn’t have a job.

Didn’t have a career I was

interested. Friends seemed

unimportant and my family

were getting tired of my

‘lost’ state.

So I did it. I ran. But in a

different way. I booked a

cargo ship from Brisbane to

Singapore. Spent my sav-

ings on a nice bike (touring-

style). Did a little research

on cycle touring Malaysia

and printed of a blog by

someone who had recorded

their trip.

I made a plan. Plan A: Cycle

from Singapore up the east

coast of Malaysia. If I made

it: Great! I’d figure out what

to do next.

Plan B: If I realised I didn’t

like cycling I’d post my bike

home and continue back-

packing.

So on the eve of my 22nd

birthday I boarded a cargo

ship, joining a crew of 23 men as

the sole passenger onboard. I had

no experience cycling over 15km

and I didn’t know how to fix a flat

tyre.

Today, I’m trying to write an es-

say for a subject – PKM230 - The

Social Psychology of Risk. To

date I’ve had to watch a bunch of

videos of people doing crazy stuff

– extreme kayaking, heli-delivered

mountain skiers, bull riders getting

slammed and free-solo rock climb-

ers dangle off a rock face, hun-

dreds of meters from the ground

and no rope! Puts my little adven-

ture into perspective.

The advantage of studying this is

the process of questioning why

we do risky and dangerous things.

And also looking into the defini-

tion of adventure. There’s no doubt

risk, danger and adventure are truly

personal.

There seems to be an interesting

link between stricter laws and rules

around safety and an increase in

people doing more extreme and

dangerous recreational activities.

Just look at the increased inter-

ested in mountain biking, rock

climbing, adventure holidays and

we could even include the ‘hoons’

partaking in urban drag-racing.

Being involved in any of these high

risk activities require participants

to have intense focus, it will often

cause an increase in adrenaline

and dopamine. The result equals a

natural highs. So it’s not surprising

that people seek increasing risk

and danger. Possibly to the point of

addiction.

I’m sitting here numb from assign-

ments and the other obligations

of the modern world (work, house-

hold duties, social commitments,

etc). I can’t help reminiscing of my

adventures. It’s making me realise

that I haven’t been seeking the

mini-adventures of everyday/week

that give me my adrenaline, dopa-

mine, endorphin – whatever – pick

me up.

The result of not running, cycling,

etc is that I feel awful – the oppo-

site of a high – depressed. And I’m

not alone. The rates of depression

and suicide are increasing.

My mother thinks that I’m just ‘one of

those people’ that has to exercise a lot.

But I think it’s a human thing. So many

people are living in the numbness, the

boredom, the sedentary nadir of mod-

ern convenience. Just like my cousin

– she’s numb – numb in the pins and

needles painful way. The only way to

stop it is to get up and get active.

I think I’ll email her today and tell her

that – maybe even invite her out on an

adventure.

Think I shall take my own medicine

and get outdoors into this beautiful

Autumnal weather.

Oh and how’d I go on my Malaysia

trip. Great! I made it up the east coast,

crossed into Thailand and met two

amazing Aussie who were also cy-

cling. Saw many islands, animals, jun-

gles. I totalled 4000km - many up and

downs - physically and mentally!

I finished my trip on a high. I cycled up

and around Thailand’s highest moun-

tain Doi Inthanon.

Was it an adventure? – Yes! And in the

lull of domesticity I’m always planning

the next bigger and better adventure.

The trick is to get out and do it!

What’s your definition of adventure?

What’s your next adventure?

Secretarial Spiel

A special information series for those new

to university.

This weeks second in our series is WHY

DON’T PEOPLE TALK TO ME!??!

So you’ve been here for two or three weeks,

Saint Pats Day was a blast and you’ve

worked out which lecturers are droids and

which are human GOOD FOR YOU!!!!!

There is however a pressing question on

your mind, that chick or guy you met last

week doesn’t seem to want to talk to you

all that much. Hmmm what could be the

problem, Im showering and wearing de-

odorant like Im still just into to my early

teens. The shock suddenly hits you when

you throw a big pearly smile at the mirror

AAAAAAHHHHHHAHAHHAHAHHH-

HHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WTF!!!!! WHAT HAPPENED

TO MY TEETH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ahh Yes the science experiment that you

didn’t even know your conducting in your

mouth has come to fruition. Your mouth

looks like someone has taken a green

highlighter to it and your breath smells like

Yak urine. Those of us who have spoken

to you as the days have gone by are now

avoiding you so that we don’t have our frea-

kin eyebrows burnt off every time you open

your food hole.

Its only been three weeks and you already

have the nickname “skunk mouth” even

the person (chick or guy) that you hooked

up with at Saint Pats night is still using cat

pee as mouth wash because it tastes 100

times better than tonguing you after 4 jugs

of cider.

at home You’re NOT

So how do you get rid of the monster mouth?

Well you could try cleaning your teeth more than

once a week or for crying out loud eat a bloody

apple or a carrot!

Dental health is important I know people who

haven’t looked after their teeth when they where

say in undergrad and now when they give talks

in classes, lecture, or present at conferences the

whole thing is shot because everyone walks out

and says “Did you get a load of that guys chop-

pers?”

We hope that you’ll enjoy the next “Your not at

home anymore” which will be on social graces or

THAT’S RIGHT! YOUR OPINION DOESNT MAT-

TER ANYMORE!!!!
