Q3 2024 ePulse

Brothers,

As we close out the summer and look towards a new scholastic year, I would like to update you on the latest happenings.

This past July, the volunteers from the alumni association along with undergraduate residents, undertook the task of a few high priority construction projects at the chapter house. Rob Spiegel (TEP 76) led the effort and has a great update below with pictures included. I want to thank everyone involved for their time and effort.

In two weeks, September 6th, we will hold our Third Annual Charity Golf Outing at Rancocas Golf Club in Willingboro NJ. There are still spots available to those interested. The registration site, HERE, has all the details.

Later in November, we will be holding the 62nd Muskrat Ramble, with the Annual Turkey Bowl the Saturday before on the new turf fields at the Rutgers Camden waterfront sports complex. Details are in the articles below.

There is one more significant article which I would like to highlight, and that is the update on the prosecution of Michael Mooney, our board's former treasurer. Rob Spiegel provides a full update below, but I want to thank Rob for his diligence in seeing this case through till the end.

Fraternally,
Mike O'Connor
SEAA Chairman

The brothers of Tau Epsilon Phi left the semester with three new brothers to the fraternity. Please help us welcome the class of 114: Ben Warren, Bill Walter and Donald Hoyos. On top of just joining, we have had all three of the new brothers move into the house and eager to recruit this fall. These men along with the actives and the help of our alumni were able to install new plastic non-destructible walls, fix all holes, new powerful toilets in every bathroom, mounts on the walls for our large speakers, and a deep cleaning service. To which we would like to thank our alumni. Most of our summer was spent doing brotherhood events that aligned with our interest. They included: Beach Days with Sigma Delta Tau, Poker Nights (we’re on week 5 straight), Paintballing, Phillies games, Trips to Atlantic City and the ageless activity of just hanging out. The only stress on our mind was putting together a great fall and spring recruitment to grow the fraternity. One rush reservation we are happy to announce is the return of the TEP Car Smash scheduled for September 12th, 2024 at 12:45pm-1:45pm.

 Today we’re reviewing the Don Pepin Nicaragua Vintage Edition in the Robusto vitola (5x54 – reminder that the smaller number is the length of the cigar in inches and the larger number is the ring gauge or circumference of the cigar) made by My Father Cigars. As always, any research was done after the review to keep our views as unbiased as possible. The cigar is offered in 3 different vitolas, the Robusto (5x54) retailing at $13.50, the Toro (6x52) retailing at $14, and the Toro Gordo (6x60) retailing at $14.50. This line was released to coincide with the 20^th anniversary of the Don Pepin Garcia brand. This cigar is made using all Nicaraguan tobacco and was released in May of 2023.  

Onto the review – Jesse and I both used a punch and a 5-flame torch lighter to keep the review consistent. The prelight smell gives us a Ferrero Rocher vibe – the sweetness of milk chocolate and a hazelnut-esque note that immediately kick starts your saliva glands. The construction of the cigar is on point; it is firm to the squeeze, there are no soft spots or blemishes, and a light oily sheen can be seen from the head to the foot of the cigar. The punched head offers a decent open draw (we question if the draw would be more open if we used a straight cutter or v-cutter) and provides an earthy hay flavor on the palate.  

Upon lighting, the draw has maintained a decent openness as noted above, and there is the nice heat of black pepper on the palate but it’s too early to judge if that’ll last or if it’s strictly from the lighting. To our dismay, all the sweetness from the prelight aroma has vanished and, in its wake, left the pepper and kind of a muddled earthy note.

 Within the first few minutes my burn line has gone crooked – I’m going to assume it was user error on this one as Jesse’s is almost perfect. I tapped off my ash in hope that the burn line will self-correct, but we shall see. Ultimately, I ended up using the torch to correct my burn line (this is more of an aesthetic choice, letting a cigar burn crookedly will not impact the smoke or flavor of the cigar). The pepper flavor has mellowed out where it’s light on the palate each draw but dissipates within seconds. The retrohale is milder than expected considering there is still some pepper on the palate, it failed to bring tears to the eye or clear the sinuses like wasabi or a darker cigar would do.

 Jesse tapped his ash off at the 20-minute mark, which broke off in one big clump, so the assumption here is long filler was used in the construction of the cigar. The general assumption is most if not all the cigars we’re reviewing are boutiques, so I don’t think they use anything but long filler on these “fancy/higher end” cigars. I’d be curious to try a short filler or mixed filler cigar to see if it changes the quality of the smoke.

 My cigar has begun to tunnel at the 23-minute mark, let’s see if this self corrects (tunneling is the cigar term for when the tobacco in the center of the cigar is burning faster than the outer tobacco so it leads to a hole in the center of the cigar). At the 35-minute mark the tunneling has corrected but my burn line has just been going back and forth so I don’t think that will straighten out before the end of this cigar. Jesse’s burn line has maintained nicely through this point.

 We both entered the final 1/3 of the cigar at around the 40-minute mark. There was no noticeable flavor change when we got to the 2^nd 1/3 of the cigar, and there wasn’t one here either. The pepper has ramped up a little, but as always that is attributed to the fact that the cherry is that much closer to the head of the cigar. Oddly I had to relight my cigar twice in this section, but it was not due to negligence, not sure what affected the cigar to cause it to go out. We both finished our cigars at around the hour mark.

Rating
Construction 9
Burn 8.5
Flavor 4
Strength Medium
Overall: 7.17

Final Thoughts: The prelight smell set an expectation that the overall smoke did not live up to. Once the pepper note disappeared, there was, really, no distinguishable flavor. For someone looking to break past the mild bodied smokes, this would be a good one to try, but overall, we both agree it’s not worth the price point. There are plenty of other cigars in the price range that would outshine this one. Considering we both enjoy the core My Father cigars, this was rather surprising with how boring the smoke was. 

After Thought: Most sites have this cigar listed as a Medium/Full or even Full-bodied smoke. Jesse and I have previously hypothesized that the more a cigar ages, the smoother but mellow the smoke becomes. Curious if that has any sway on this cigar as I cannot find any details on how long the cigar is aged for during production before it is released to the general public.

Woods, Part 2

Brian Dengler, TEP 109

Like a scene from the film ‘Grown Ups’, my high school friend group promised each other that every summer we were going to meet up at least once to catch up and have “some” beers. Whether this is visiting each other in the cities we ended up, booking an Airbnb somewhere, or camping in the mountains. This year, we chose Lake George, NY for the second year in a row.

 We decided on spending four days at Hearthstone Point Campground. Located on the western point of the iconic glacier lake in the middle of the Adirondack mountains. Unfortunately, we booked our trip during a big storm hitting the East coast, and this was no exception for upstate New York. We were bunkered for two days of our trip with torrential downpours and a tornado warning. Nonetheless we still got two days of fun to hike, swim, and golf. Given the fact that Lake George is a glacier lake, it is surrounded by mountains all around. So, a four-mile hike will bring you to a vast overview of the 300 million gallons of water. 

 An interesting part of this lake is what lies on and underneath it. There are many locations dedicated to the French and Indian War. One that we traveled to is an island dedicated to the peace agreement between the French and Native Americans, known as Diamond Island. It boasts an obelisk and campground facilities. Around this island there are hundreds of sunken ships including several significant ones that date back to 1758. In the future, I plan on scuba diving some of the wreckage that dates back 265 years.

 Now if you were to visit Lake George, camping or staying at a cabin/hotel, there are some must-dos’ if you were to ask me. My top three would be Buck Mountain (arguably one of the best hikes and views of the lake at almost 2,400 feet), Top of the World Golf Resort (an 18-hole golf course that boasts views like my previously listed hike), and the Steamboat Cruise that will drive you around the Lake to all its landmarks. All of these are located within a 10–30-minute drive from Hearthstone Point. Just know if you're going to book a camping trip here, make sure you check the weather and local events beforehand.

Very few people know their own potential because they never push themselves to their absolute mental and physical limits. Most people work at something and when it gets a little tough or inconvenient, they quit and do something else. But, once you push yourself to your absolute mental and physical limits, for a sustained period, suddenly everything else in life becomes easy by comparison and you get a fuller appreciation of your own potential.

Years ago, I was hired into an auditing department as a computer guy even though I had an MBA. I was surrounded by a sea of accountants speaking their own language. I was an outsider.

My boss was a Certified Public Accountant, a CPA. If you want to be in accounting, a CPA is the credential to have. It is far more valuable than an MBA.

At least once a day, my boss told me how smart he was because he was a CPA. He told me how hard it was to pass all four parts of the CPA exam. The exam lasts 2 ½ days. It took him four tries to pass all four parts. That is better than average. A University of Maryland study found it took 4.5 tries on average to pass all parts of the exam and many accountants never passed it. 

After a while, I got tired of my boss telling me how smart he was because he was a CPA, and I thought, this guy is not smarter than me. So, I took the Becker CPA Review Course. I did not tell anyone I was doing so. At this company, whenever one of the accountants said they wanted to sit for the CPA exam, the company sent them on out-of-town audits so they could not study. They were worried that once an accountant got a CPA, they would either ask for more money or get a better job elsewhere.

So, I silently took the Becker course which was 4 hours a night three nights a week plus twelve hours a week of homework, for three months. The fourth month of the course was 4 hours a night, four nights week plus 16 hours a week of homework. So, for four months, all I did was eat, sleep, work, and study for the CPA exam.

I passed all four parts of the exam on the first sitting. Not bad for a guy with a physics degree.

Rather than telling my boss I passed the CPA exam, I told my boss’s boss’s boss and let the information filter down. I remember the day my immediate boss came into my office, sat across the desk from me. He pointed at me with a boney finger and said, “You passed the CPA exam?”

I put on my best Sunday School smile and in a light and breezy manner asked, “Why? Was it hard?”

He did not know what to say; he just sat there dumbfounded. So, at this point he had an MBA and a CPA and I had an MBA and a CPA. But I still thought that he was not smarter than me, so I said, “Now I am going to law school.” I had been accepted months before. I just did not tell anybody.

“You cannot go to law school!” he said emphatically,

I said I was going to law school. The only question was whether I continued to work for the company. Just to add some perspective, you should know that my audit work saved the company tens of millions of dollars and my boss’s bonus was based on the results I got. 

To make it impossible for me to go to Rutgers School of Law, he assigned me to work in our Connecticut office three days a week.

So, I got up at 3:00 a.m., drove to the Northeast Philadelphia Airport, caught a slow-moving prop commuter plant to Connecticut, worked there all day and caught a jet from Connecticut back to the Philadelphia International Airport. Northeast Philadelphia Airport and Philadelphia International Airport are on opposites sides of the city. So, I took a cab from Philadelphia International up to Northeast Airport to pick up my car. Then I drove to Rutgers and had law classes from 6:00 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. after which, I went home; slept for a few hours; and began again. And of course, I had to study too. This went on for four months until one of my troops told my boss’s boss’s boss what my boss was doing, and the top boss told my immediate boss to knock it off and let me go to school.

After going through that and pushing myself to my absolute physical and mental limits, everything I have done since then seems easy. My recommendation is to find something that pushes you to your limits, tough it out, get it done and once you are on the other side, everything else will look easy. It also showed me that I could succeed at things that others just did not have the grit to tackle.

On the weekend of July 20-21, 2024, alumni, undergraduate volunteers came together for the highly anticipated Summer Work Party at 228 Cooper St. The event aimed to make essential upgrades to the fraternity house, ensuring it remains the top fraternity housing option on campus. Thanks to the hard work and dedication of everyone involved, we made significant progress in addressing critical areas of the house.

Several volunteers worked tirelessly, putting in 12 hours on Saturday, July 20, to complete the bulk of the projects. A few additional hours on Sunday allowed us to wrap up the remaining tasks. Fortunately, we were blessed with some relief from the heat, enabling us to accomplish so much in such a short time.

1. Bathroom Upgrades: We successfully installed four pressure-assist toilets in the bathrooms, significantly improving the plumbing system's reliability and efficiency.

2. Kitchen Upgrades: Stainless steel shelving was installed in the kitchen, greatly enhancing the room's functionality, and giving it a cleaner, more organized appearance.

3. Wall Enhancements: Volunteers installed 14 sheets of fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP) wall panels throughout the house. These durable and easy-to-clean panels enhance the house's aesthetics and long-term maintenance.  We also made repairs to a drywall ceiling that was damaged from an old bathroom leak.

4. Laundry Facilities: All four of the washing and drying machines are now fully operational, providing much-needed convenience for the residents.

5. Smart Thermostat Installation: A new smart thermostat was installed, allowing for more efficient temperature control and energy savings.

6. Bedroom Door Repair: We also replaced a bedroom door, ensuring privacy and security for the residents.

7. Curb appeal: Window finishings were replaced on the front of the house giving us a cleaner and more welcoming appearance. 

The improvements made during the Summer Work Party have transformed 228 Cooper St into a more functional, comfortable, and appealing living space. These enhancements not only address immediate needs but also contribute to the long-term sustainability of the house.

This event's success would not have been possible without the time, effort, and generosity of Austin Waller (TEP 81), Michael O’Connor (TEP 75), Brian Dengler (TEP 109) and the undergraduate volunteers. Your commitment to maintaining and improving our fraternity's legacy is deeply appreciated. Your involvement made a lasting impact.

As we look ahead, the upgrades completed during this work party set a strong foundation for the future. Together, we've ensured that 228 Cooper St continues to be a desirable home for our brothers and a proud symbol of our fraternity's spirit. Thank you for making this possible!

Stellar Blade Review

Austin Waller, TEP 81

Reviewed on: Playstation 5
Genre: Action

I'm not even going to structure this like a regular review because this game is ridiculous.  Like, the developers must be joking.  Every woman in this game looks like they were immediately picked up from a high-end BDSM-focused orgy somewhere in the Netherlands before they were able to get their clothes off and then dumped into this game.  I mean, fine, Bayonetta is like that.  But Bayonetta plays it all tongue-in-cheek.  The main character is SEXII LADY but she's cracking adult jokes and playing up the atmosphere non-stop, her finishing moves are called "climaxing".  It's all a fun big joke and we smile at it.  But this one is so weird because they want to tell this epic, philosophical science fiction epic to stand alongside other titans of the action genre like Nier and they do so while upping Eve's (she's the main character and she has practically no personality aside from "committed soldier") jiggle physics to the point that her ass looks like you just slapped a nice Strawberry Jello mold with a hockey stick even though she's just like... slowly turning around to look at the camera.  How the fuck am I supposed take a scene with a major character death seriously when the dying character's tits are flopping all over the place even though she's just laying there?  If you are insistent on making your new action IP hyper-horny for all those lonely bois out there... how can you miss the opportunity to turn these scenes into cheesy 80s action schlock?  Wow!  Way to drop the ball!  The end result is that the story doesn't hit at all and who cares about the thinly structured sci-fi plot with its predictable twists and cookie-cutter elements when everything looks like a 15 year old's wet dream?  Bleh.  I don't care about people saying that this game is fighting "the woke".  And I don't care about all the people offended by it.  Games can be sexy with hotties running around without being irritating and dumb.  At least you can change her outfits and play dress-up with her and change her hair.  At least they were self-aware enough to incorporate that.

Anyway, this is a game so we should talk about GAMEPLAY, no?  Ok, it's an action game.  So, everything is kind of based around the combat mechanics and the environments they dump you in to play with said mechanics.  The environments are fine, I suppose.  Some levels are straightforward.  You go from A to B fighting progressively harder enemies and upping your experience so you can buy skills and more easily dispatch said harder enemies and then a big bad boss at the end.  Fun!  Also, some open environments where they dump side quests around and other groups of enemies to fight at your leisure.  Both big open environments are deserts, though.  Weird.  One should have been a volcano or something.  The combat itself is kind of... eh?  It's obviously really polished, and they put a lot of work into it.  But Eve doesn't really move as quickly as you feel like she should.  When you approach an enemy, she walks very slowly, and they force you to use this "rush" feature that instantly teleports you in front of the enemy.  The combat is all based around parrying and dodging... but it just feels like the timing is off.  The enemies all do this big, honkin' wind-up animation before they strike, and you know it's coming but your block or dodge still seems to fail half the time.  It's also really fuzzy as to whether or not your attacks are stunning the enemies because their stun animations all look like attack wind-ups.  It's just really funky.  It's perfectly passable but it could use a bit more polish.  There's also TOO MANY BARS all over the screen.  The enemies have a health bar, a balance bar, and shield bar... your character has a health bar, a shield bar, two special move gauges, 6 types of ammo for your near-useless gun drone thing.  I really think less would have been more.  

Also, the music is really good.  Buy the soundtrack if you feel like it.

Ok, whatever.  7.5/10.  It's fine.  But if you want to play a game like this but 1000x better play Nier: Automata, which is available on basically everything.  Sony wants to make this franchise a big deal so hopefully the sequel is better.  

Awall out.  

We want to update you on a significant development in the ongoing case against Michael Mooney, the former treasurer of our organization. After years of legal proceedings and countless hours of effort on behalf of our Board of Trustees and legal team, Michael Mooney has finally pled guilty to the charges brought against him. This outcome, which we have been diligently pursuing since 2020, marks an important step toward justice.

The next critical stage in this process is the sentencing, scheduled for September 6th. During this hearing, we are hopeful that the court will award us full restitution for the funds that were wrongfully taken from our organization. These funds are vital to our mission and our ability to support the students and maintain our property. We will continue to keep you informed as the situation progresses. Thank you for your continued support and dedication to the Sigma Epsilon Alumni Association.
