UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN Monday, September 9, 1996 5A Great wings available at Mojo's New restaurant features a variety of chicken wings By Erin Rooney Kansan staff writer Stacey Merz, Wichita senior, takes the orders of two customers yesterday at Mojo's, 805 Vermont St.. In addition to the 10 different varieties of chicken wings. Mojo's offers many choices of sandwiches and hot dogs. I thought the restaurant might be named after the unique entertainer Mojo Nixon or the Doors song that proclaims a "mojo's risin'." I was wrong, it's named after one of the owners' friend's dog. Mojo's, 805 Vermont St., is a new restaurant in Lawrence that specializes in chicken wings. When I discovered there was a new wings place in town, my taste buds led me straight to their door. Mojo's opened just two and a half weeks ago. The owners are three 20-something, Lawrence-raised sauce creators, who got their inspiration from a "How to Open Your Own Business" book. Doug Yetman spearheaded the idea, and his friends, James Langford and Frank Lemus, Jr., became his partners. REVIEW There are 10 different kinds of wings on Mojo's menu. Each order comes with celery and blue cheese, "butta-milk" ranch or white salsa dip. Mojo's also has sandwiches and hot dogs. Six wings cost $3 and Mojo's 13- wing dozen, which is more than enough for one person, costs $5.50. The Curry Mustard wing is what I would call a wedding reception wing. It's very mild, fragrant and my Grandma Jean wouldn't mind if it got too close to her mints and shrimp balls. It's a crowd pleaser that's worth trying. The Phat Elvis is a rich Memphis-style wing. After you eat this wing, you spend the next 15 minutes licking the sauce off your fingers instead of using a napkin. The Chipotle BBQ wing, one of my favorites, is moderately spicy and has a strong jalapeno flavor. The Buff is my version of the perfect wing. It's not too hot, but spicy enough to get my nose running. tastes like jerk and didn't turn me into a jerk supporter. that washing the pans for the Code Reds bring tears to their eyes. *Last is the Code Red wing. This is the wing I will brag to my friends that I ate. It's really hot and Yetman said it was getting hotter every day. I have eaten a lot of extremely hot wings, and this ranks with the hottest of the hot. The dishwasher complained Mojo's hours are 11:30 a.m. to midnight Monday through Wednesday, 11:30 to 3 a.m. Thursday through Saturday, and noon to 10 p.m. Sunday. Delivery begins at 5 p.m. every day, except for Sundays during football season when they deliver all day.

The three-month study tracked 97 individuals, 42 day workers and 55 night workers. Results revealed that the night workers on average gained eight pounds during that time period while the day workers lost an average of one-half pound. "Based on responses they gave us for their weight increase, snacking more and less time for physical activity contributed," said Alan Geliebter, physician research psychologist at St. Luke's Hospital. Ann Chapman, dietitian at Watkins Memorial Health Center, said that poor food choice, lack of physical activity and boredom were also factors contributing to weight gain for some night workers. "They need to plan the meals out for the evening more carefully," Chapman said. "Don't eat a lot of fast foods and cut down on the vending machines." In addition to exercise and avoidance of high-calorie foods, a consistent eating pattern will help night workers stay trim, she said. Mandi Saidat, a former part-time evening telephone operator and Elmhurst, III, sophomore, agreed that boredom at work caused people to eat. "If your job is easy, you find yourself eating to pass the time," said Amy Ochs, Lenexa sophomore. "It is just so easy to do." "If you sit on your ass for eight hours every night, all you can do is eat. I worked early evenings and didn't experience any weight gain, but I noticed the late-night people who came in were a bit hefty," she said. Keeping your computer safe Students who ignore threat of viruses take an unnecessary risk By Bradley Brooks Kansan staff writer Using a computer without antivirus software is like having sex without a condom: it's an unnecessary risk, and it can result in catching a devastating virus. "I am probably the person who is ready to get hit. I don't have very good protection yet," said Ryan Hodapp, Overland Park junior. "I will probably have to catch a virus before I go get more software." It is precisely this attitude that allows computer vruses to spread as quickly as they do. But for KU students, faculty and staff there is a remedy, and it can be found at the Computer Center. Mickey Waxman, statistical consultant and programmer at the center, said that there were various anti-virus programs that could be copied for free at the Computer Center. According to Waxman, a computer virus is a set of instructions to a computer, like any other program. A virus can enter a computer system when infected data is downloaded, or when floppy disks are used that have been used in infected machines. The virus then hides itself in an already existing program, such as a word processor. "Somewhere in the infected file are virus instructions so that when you start the program, the virus instructions also get started," Waxman said. "After that, the virus can do anything with a computer — make copies, erase files or anything that can be done with a computer." Waxman said that the viruses would wait for a specific date or other triggers to execute damaging "Mostly, they won't reveal their presence," he said. "They want to make as many copies as possible." Obtaining basic anti-virus programs from the Computer Center is simple. A student only needs to bring a blank floppy disk to the center, open up the public folder on any of the computers, and copy the desired program for free. effects. waxman said that for Macintosh users, the Computer Center offered Disinfectant 3.6. He said that while there wasn't much of a selection of anti-virus programs offered for Macintosh users, what was offered was sufficient in most cases. The program Waxman recommended for personal computer users was F-PROT. waxman said that while a virus could devastate a computer system, he had confidence that the computer center could give users security and safe files. "We are protected down here," Waxman said. 841-PLAY 1029 Massachusetts DICKINSON THEATRE 641-8900 Pickinson 9 2339 South Ivy St. EMMA (PG) 4:30 7:00 9:30 TRAINSPOTTING (R) 4:45 9:45 LONE STAR (R) 7:10 Ends Thurs Showtimes for today only Sept. 6-Sept. 12 岛防 of Dr. Morreaunth Set-Sun Fri.Mon-Thure *Alaskath 2:10 4:30 The Stupidsth 2:10 7:20,9:30 First Kidth 2:00 4:40,7:00,9:30 The Trigger Effect 2:20 4:40,7:20,9:50 Bogusth 2:10 4:40,7:10,9:40 Spitfire Grillth 2:00 4:40,7:00,9:50 350 Adult Before Heating Dolby 0:00 P.M.
