process. According to CSA Presi-
dent Steve Lai, OSCR has been in
touch with Studio 4 management,
although it is not known whether
they have agreed to take part in the
mediation process.
Misumi said UAAO was also
working with the University's
Office of Student Activities and
Leadership to develop a set of
guidelines for student organiza-
tions dealing with Ann Arbor busi-
nesses to create accountability for
both parties.
Ashley Manzano, FASA Presi-
dent, said that before the event in
November, there had been a writ-
ten agreementthatthe two student
groups would publicize the event.
In exchange the groups would
receive half of the cover charge
from everyone who came through
the door that night.
At the end of the night, accord-
ing to Manzano and Lai, the club's
manager, Jeff Mangray, told them
that they would only be paid for 50
out of the 111 people who came to
the club that night.
Mangray told them this was
because they "only brought in 50
Asians," according to Lai.
Lai said he was threatened by
Mangray's son, who also spat on
Manzano and used racial and sex-
ist slurs in an ensuing confronta-
tion outside of the club.
UAAO passed a resolution boy-
cotting the club and condemning
the alleged actions of the manag-
ers at their last meeting before
winter break. Shortly after, the
Michigan Student Assembly
passed a similar resolution. MSA's
version cut off funding to student
organizations for events at Studio
4 temporarily while the Peace and
Justice Commission conducted
an investigation. The commission
was supposed to report its findings
at last Tuesday's meeting, but the
presentation was postponed;

"We suspended any offer-

made with peanut butter just in
deference to the FDA warning
to consumers," University Hous-

"However, we now know that none
of the peanut butter brand or pea-
nut butter chips that we use in our

The types of peanutbutter prod-
ucts that were recalled are widely
distributed for use in goods such
as cookies, cereal and ice cream,
but are only available to institu-
tions and food manufacturers, not
directly to customers. A full list of
recalled products is available on
the FDA's website.
Salmonella is a bacterial infec-
tion that causes fever, diarrhea,
nausea, vomiting and abdomi-
nal pain. It can result in severe
and sometimes fatal infections in
young children and elderly indi-
viduals. This most recent outbreak
has already sickened almost 450
people nationwide, including 25 in
Michigan.

For Saturday, Jan. 24, 2009
ARIES
(March 21 to April 19)
This is a strong time for you; you feel
good about yourself. Your inner confi-
dence combined with the work you're
doing (behind the scenes) will promote
your good reputation.
TAURUS
(April 20 to May 20)
Relations with groups and casual
friends are excellent today. You might
talk to someone who is far away or in
another country. Count on others being
helpful to you.
GEMINI
(May 21 toJune 20)
No matter what you do for a living,
someone will ask for your creative or
artistic input about something. This
could relate to design, layout, office fur-
niture, landscaping - anything.
CANCER
(June 21 to July 22)
Opportunities to travel, take a course
or further your education or training in
some way might arise today. If so, take
advantage of this.
LEO
(July 23 to Aug. 22)
Romantic relationships are sweet and
tender. Financial matters can also favor
you, especially through the wealth of
others.
VIRGO
(Aug. 23 to Sept. 22)
This is a good day to discuss agree-
ments with partners. It's also a good day
to schmooze with others and enjoy good
times. People will be openly friendly to
you.
LIBRA
(Sept. 23 to Oct. 22)
Since co-workers are particularly
cooperative today, now is the time to ask
for assistance or advice if you need it.
You might get a raise or praise today
from your boss.
SCORPIO
(Oct. 23 to Nov. 21)
Romance, love affairs and anything to
do with vacations, sports and show busi-
ness are all blessed today. Playful activi-
ties with children will be rewarding.
Enjoy your day!
SAGITTARIUS
(Nov. 22to Dec. 21)
Home and family are blessed today.
This is a good day for real estate, enter-
taining at home, family get-togethers or
redecorating.
CAPRICORN
(Dec. 22 to Jan. 19)
Today you might appreciate just how
much love thgre is in your ordinary,
everyday world. It's easy to take this for
granted. But something makes you
aware of this today.
AQUARIUS
(Jan. 20to Feb. 18)
Business and commerce are favored
today. It's a good day to make money;
it's also an easy day to spend money,
especially on art, beautiful things or
goodies for yourself and loved ones.
PISCES
(Feb. 19 to March 20)
You're particularly charming and
diplomatic today. Others will enjoy talk-
ing to you because you're spontaneously
gracious and friendly to everyone. (It's a
good day to shop for wardrobe items.)
YOU BORN TODAY You have the
kind of magnetic energy that draws oth-
ers to you. Youre active, energetic and
interested in a wide variety of people.
However, your popularity sometimes
forces you to hide. (Sometimes you feel
that others expecttoo much of you.) This
year something you've been involved
with for about nine years will diminish
or end to make way for a new beginning
next year.
