Now Demonstrating

"Now Demonstrating" is a new segment added to Ferris in Focus for the spring 2010 semester at Ferris State University. It is a How-To-type segment that is set to help replace the now-defunct "Walk-On."

Staying Warm in Big Rapids
Northern Michigan can be cold and unforgiving. The Dozerfleet founder and classmate Nate Totten teamed up to discuss how tow truckers, construction workers, and students stay warm. Methods discussed included coats, gel packets, and thermal underwear. Interviews included Clark Construction Company superintendent Mike "Spike" McKeen and one driver from Big Rapids Towing.

For the comedic non-sequiturs, clips included a cutaway to a stuffed bear and the host getting blown away in a green-screened blizzard. The segment also features voice intonation parodies of Red Green and Billy Mays.

How to Dance the Hustle
Ferris Alumni and dancing enthusiast Michael Noble comes on to bring up his specialty skills with dancing hustle. According to Mike, the hustle dance requires dancers to "form a box," and start from a given direction while completing that box.

To perform a ballroom hustle:
 * 1) Start with taking a side-step.
 * 2) Pivot
 * 3) Four Count
 * 4) Step Right
 * 5) Step Left
 * 6) Turn
 * 7) Another two steps
 * 8) Pivot
 * 9) Reverse Pivot
 * 10) Repeat three times.

Mike makes a complete hustle about 26 steps long, but adds a few of his own for a custom hustle.
