Young women’s team struggles, gains experience
the surprises trickled down and Arizona finished 30th out of 31 teams. “It was not a very good performance,� Li said.“But I was trying to tell the girls to keep their heads up and while we’re not happy about our performance here, I’m still very proud of them for making it here and for what they’ve achieved.�
For the first time this season, junior runner Maggie Callahan was not the first runner across the line for Arizona. That spot was filled by standout freshman Jennifer Bergman, who finished 138th overall with a time of 21:34.5 for a 6,000-meter race. “I was pretty excited to be the first
one to finish,� Bergman said. “I started out pretty slow, but I definitely picked it up near the end. It was definitely a lot different than what I was used to with so many fast runners.� The difference between Bergman and Callahan, the second Arizona runner to cross, was a mere three seconds. Callahan
finished 147th. The next woman across the line was freshman Cami Jackson, in 156th with a time of 21:42.6. Freshman Liz Apgar came through next at 197th in 22:03.4 and sophomore Hanna Henson rounded out the team’s top five finishers two seconds later with a finish in 201st place. In all, there were
254 women in the race. “I think we’re going to learn a lot from it,� Callahan said. “We can’t just be happy that we’re here. We have to make an impact next year.� “It just kind of sucks to end on this note,� she added, “but for the whole season, we have a great sense of accomplishment.�

why they need it. “A lot of what we see in the application [statement] is fear of a parent job loss, job uncertainty or fear about housing foreclosures,” said Robin Okun Hengl, director of ASU parent programs. The National Scholarship Providers Association, based in Boulder, Colo., said the spike in applications is occurring across the country. The organization has not collected data on scholarship applications but said many of its 250 members are reporting the trend. Students are also seeking help from the Internet using
sites like FastWeb.com. The Web site reports that its seasonal spike in Internet traffic so far this year is 20 percent, compared with the usual 5 to 10 percent. Those who hand out scholarships said several factors are contributing to the increased competition for awards. “College costs continue to increase, and people’s ability to pay continues to decrease,” said Amy Weinstein, executive director of the National Scholarship Providers Association. Mark Kantrowitz, publisher of FastWeb.com, said the tight credit mar-

BEIJING
Buying tours of US homes popular among China’s rich Beijing lawyer Ying Guohua is heading to the United States on a shopping trip, looking not for designer clothes or jewelry, but for a $1 million home in New York City or Los Angeles. He expects to get a bargain. Ying is part of a growing number of Chinese who are joining tours organized especially for investors who want to take advantage of slumping U.S. real estate prices amid a financial crisis. “It’s a great time to buy because of the financial crisis, and houses in large cities like New York and Los Angeles will definitely go up in a few years,” Ying said. The home is an investment, but he’s also planning long-term: He hopes his 5-year-old son might use it if he goes to college in the United States. While China’s ultra-rich have been buying property in the U.S. for years, the buying tours are new, made attractive by still-rising Chinese income levels and American real estate prices that have been falling for two and a half years. More than 100 Chinese buyers have joined such tours since late 2008, according to Chen Hang, the China-born vice president of real estate at Fortune Group. The Pittsburgh, Penn., company shows foreclosed commercial property to Chinese buyers. “The Chinese are going to seize the opportunity to take advantage of some great deals,” Chen said. Ying, the Beijing lawyer, is one of 40 investors going to New York, California, Boston and Las Vegas on a Feb. 24 to March 6 tour organized by Beijing-based SouFun Holdings Ltd., a real estate Web site. SouFun plans to show participants foreclosed properties priced at $300,000 to $800,000. “We never thought these tours would garner such interest, but we’ve had an overwhelming response,” said SouFun CEO Richard Dai. “Before, we heard of Chinese or Hong Kong movie stars buying homes in the U.S., and now more and more Chinese can afford to have the same.”

Satellites crash over Siberia; US ‘Iridium’ denies responsibility The collision between U.S. and Russian communication satellites this week – the first such crash in space – has created speeding clouds of debris that threaten other unmanned spacecraft in nearby orbits, Russian officials and experts said Thursday. The smashup 500 miles (800 kilometers) over Siberia on Tuesday involved a derelict Russian spacecraft designed for military communications and a working U.S. Iridium satellite, which serves commercial customers as well as the U.S. Department of Defense. In a statement Thursday, Iridium, based in Bethesda, Maryland, denied that it was responsible for the crash. The collision scattered space debris in orbits 300 to 800 miles (500 to 1,300 kilometers) above Earth, according to Maj.Gen. Alexander Yakushin, chief of staff for the Russian military’s Space Forces.

But Igor Lisov, a prominent Russian space expert, said Thursday he did not understand why NASA’s debris experts and Iridium had failed to prevent the collision, since the Iridium satellite was active and its orbit could be adjusted. “It could have been a computer failure or a human error,” he said. “It also could be that they only were paying attention to smaller debris and ignoring the defunct satellites.” Lisov said the debris may threaten a large number of earth-tracking and weather satellites in similar orbits. “There is a quite a lot of satellites in nearby orbits,” he told The Associated Press. “The other 65 Iridium satellites in similar orbits will face the most serious risk, and there numerous earth-tracking and weather satellites in nearby orbits. Fragments may trigger a chain of collisions.”

MANILA, PHILIPPINES
FRESNO, CALIF. THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Fresno police investigate taped beating by officer Fresno’s police department has launched an internal affairs investigation into a video-recorded arrest of a homeless man who was beaten by one officer while another restrained him. The four-minute video, shot by a bystander Monday on a busy street, shows one officer standing over the man in the mud and holding his arms while the other officer delivers at least five punches to his face, some with the homeless man’s hands behind his back. Police Chief Jerry Dyer on Wednesday called the case disturbing, but said until the investigation is complete, it won’t be known whether the officers’ actions were appropriate. “It’s very disturbing on the surface,” Dyer said. “I’ve watched it several times. There are other pieces that need to be looked at. Although a moment in time is crucial, it’s important
to look at all aspects of the officers’ contact.” The internal affairs investigation should take about 30 days, Dyer said. The names of the officers are not being released, but Dyer said neither has been cited for previous misconduct. One has served in the department for 10 years, the other for six. Dyer said the officer who punched Glen Beaty, 52, is now on medical leave with a broken pinky finger that will require surgery. The video shows him briefly shaking out the hand that landed the punches. The other officer was placed on administrative duty. “I am deeply concerned about what I see in the video,” Fresno Mayor Ashley Swearengin said in a statement. “I understand that officers need to use force, at times, to protect themselves or to make an arrest. But the video itself is very disturbing.”
Watered Down Farmers from the central Philippine provinces of Negros and Leyte, lie down as riot police disperse them using water cannons during a rally at the foot of the bridge leading to the Presidential Palace Thursday in Manila, Philippines.

NEW YORK
NYC marriage bureau rebuffs same-sex couples Hundreds of same-sex couples seeking to wed were turned away from the city marriage bureau Thursday, part of a nationwide protest aimed at recent decisions restricting the right to marry to a man and a woman. Wearing signs that said “Just Not Married,” the activists were part of a wave of demonstrations expected throughout the day at marriage bureaus or county clerks’ offices from New York City to California, in communities large and small. Matt Flanders, 37, of Brooklyn, participated with his 29-yearold partner, Will Jennings. Both wore gold engagement rings. When he was denied a marriage license, Flanders said he
told officials: “‘I should be able to marry the person I love.’ And they said, ‘We can only offer you a domestic partnership.’” Micah Stanek, 23, stood outside in a floor-length wedding veil after he and his partner were rejected. He said he moved to New York from San Francisco after same-sex marriage was outlawed in California on the November ballot. “New York is especially important because the rest of the country follows what happens here,” he said. Outside the bureau, protesters sang “Love and Marriage” and chanted, “What do we want? Marriage! When do we want it? Now!” One man held a sign that
read: “Love your husband? Let me love mine!” The protests, part of the 12th annual Freedom to Marry Week, were considered more important than ever this year because they come in the wake of California’s Proposition 8 vote that overturned same-sex marriage and just as New Yorkers look to their state Senate to pass legislation that could lead to legalized same-sex marriage. Some of the largest gatherings were expected in California, where the state’s Supreme Court will hear oral arguments March 5 over whether to restore California same-sex marriages. The court could render a decision as early as June.

Some Sunny Perspective
It is time to sit back and fully evaluate over-the-top reports in the news a few weeks ago as reported by the International Agency for Research on Cancer on July , incredibly suggesting that getting a suntan is now in the same risk category as cigarettes, arsenic and even plutonium. That’s ridiculous. Cigarettes, arsenic and plutonium all undermine our body’s natural functions. But getting a suntan is different — it is a part of the body’s natural design. Humans, like the rest of the planet, need sun exposure to survive and thrive. Ignored in much news reporting were the very important nuances that define humanity’s very important relationship with UV light and sunshine. Specifically: Not one single study exists anywhere in the world implicating tanning in a non-burning fashion as a significant risk factor for permanent skin damage. Indeed, no study has ever been designed with protocol to ask this question. Melanoma is more common in people who work indoors than in those who work outdoors. The relationship between melanoma and sunlight cannot possibly be clear-cut. If it were a clear-cut relationship, outside workers would have higher incidence than inside workers. Melanoma most commonly appears on parts of the body that do not receive regular exposure to sunlight. Again, the relationship between melanoma and sunlight is not evident. If it were, melanomas would appear most often on parts of the body that receive the most sunlight. The sum of data do not substantively link indoor tanning equipment with an increased risk of melanoma. Indeed according to the IARC, of epidemiological studies ever conducted on this topic show no significant association. This confounding information was conspicuously absent in what was spoon-fed to the media. Finally, consider this hypocrisy: Dermatology professionals still continue to use indoor tanning equipment in dermatology offices to treat psoriasis and other purely cosmetic disorders; a treatment called “phototherapy.” If what was widely reported by the IARC was true, then the dermatology profession would be guilty of that which they accuse indoor tanning facilities: increasing women’s risk of melanoma in exchange for treating a non-lethal disease, which would violate the “never do harm” provision of a physician’s Hippocratic Oath. Saying that UV exposure is harmful and should be avoided is as wrong as saying that water causes drowning, and therefore we should avoid water. My indoor tanning business provides a valuable service in this community: teaching people the concepts of moderation and sunburn prevention as part of a practical life-long skin care regimen that respects their intelligence.

It’s only right that the decade’s best team is well-represented on the All-Decade team. Mateen Cleaves and Morris Peterson already have had their numbers retired, and Charlie Bell also might get that honor some day, but he gets knocked out of the starting lineup for Alan Anderson — just barely. PG: Mateen Cleaves (1996-2000, 12.5 ppg, 6.6 apg) — Cleaves is the best leader in MSU basketball history, and maybe in all of MSU sports. He willed the Spartans to three Big Ten Championships, two Final Fours and the 2000 national championship. His No. 12 jersey is permanently retired and hanging from Breslin Center’s rafters. SG: Alan Anderson (200105, 9.5 ppg, 4.2 rpg, 2.4 apg) — Point guard, shooting guard, small forward or
the post, the versatile Anderson played everywhere for the Spartans. As a senior, Anderson was a key contributor for the 2004-05 Final Four team. SF: Morris Peterson (19952000, 11.6 ppg, 4.7 rpg, 37 percent 3-point) — He came off the bench as a sophomore and junior — becoming the first reserve in Big Ten history to be named to the conference’s First-Team. The following season, he was named Big Ten Player of the Year and led the Spartans to the 2000 national championship. Like Cleaves, his No. 42 will never be worn by another Spartan. PF: Andre Hutson (19972001, 10.1 ppg, 6.1 rpg) — The dominant post player for the 2000 national championship team, Hutson started almost every game during his career. He ranks 16th on MSU’s all-time scoring list and
was the Spartans’ leading rebounder for two seasons. C: Paul Davis (2002-06, 13.2 ppg, 7 rpg) — One of the top two or three centers in MSU history, Davis ranks 8th on MSU’s alltime scoring list and fourth on the rebounding list. As a junior, he was part of MSU’s 2004-05 Final Four team, and dominated as a senior, averaging 17.5 points and 9.1 rebounds a game. Second team PG: Drew Neitzel (200408, 11.1 ppg, 4.2 apg, 39.9 percent 3-point) SG: Charlie Bell (1997-2001, 10.5 ppg, 4.5 rpg, 2.7 apg) SF: Maurice Ager (200206, 12.5 ppg, 3.4 rpg) PF: Jason Richardson (1999-2001, 9.6 ppg, 5 rpg) C: Goran Suton (200509, 8.1 ppg, 6.6 rpg)
Kristin Haynie puckers up for the Big Ten Championship trophy after the Spartans beat Michigan 77-34 to secure a share of the 2004-05 Big Ten title. Haynie, one of the most talented all-around players in MSU history, is the women’s basketball all-decade team point guard.
04-05 team shines on decade squad Four of the five players on the first team come from the program’s best team in 200405. Liz Shimek and Lindsey Bowen are the top two scorers in program history, and Kristen Haynie was the cornerstone of that team. Allyssa DeHaan has been a force since stepping on campus and Victoria Lucas-Perry was overshadowed during her time but was a consistently solid player. PG: Kristen Haynie (200105, 9.4 ppg, 4.7 rpg, 4.5 apg) — There has been perhaps no better all-around player than Haynie. She ranks among the best in program history in assists (first), steals (first), scoring (10th) and rebounds (17th). SG: Lindsey Bowen (200203, 13.3 ppg, 40 percent 3-point) — The best pure shooter in program history,
Bowen ranks as MSU’s second all-time leading scorer with 1,739 points. She also has made the most 3-pointers (294), has the best 3-point percentage (40) and best free-throw percentage (87.8) in program history. SF: Victoria Lucas-Perry (2003-07, 8.8 ppg, 4.4 rpg) — A three-year starter, Lucas-Perry came into her own as a junior and senior, averaging more than 10 points a game both seasons. As a senior, Lucas-Perry averaged 13.5 points and six rebounds per game. PF: Liz Shimek (2002-06, 13.6 ppg, 8.6 rpg) — Shimek is without question the best and most dominant women’s basketball player in school history. Her 1,780 career points are the most in program history, as are her 1,130 rebounds. In fact, no one else has even
pulled down 1,000 rebounds. C: Allyssa DeHaan (2006-present, 12.5 ppg, 7 rpg, 3.9 bpg) — The tallest player in program history, at 6-foot-9 DeHaan has been on the path to greatness ever since her freshman season. With nearly a full season to go, DeHaan ranks seventh on MSU’s all-time scoring and rebounding lists, and is nearing the NCAA record for most blocks. Second team PG: Brittney Thomas (2007-Present, 6.7 ppg, 4.7 rpg, 3.4 apg, 1.6 spg) SG: Rene Haynes (200307, 8.7 ppg, 3.5 rpg) SF: Aisha Jefferson (2005-Present, 9.3 ppg, 5.1 rpg) PF: Becky Cummings (19972001, 10.6 ppg, 6.1 rpg) C: Kelli Roerhig (200105, 10.7 ppg, 5.2 rpg)
Best freshman performance Heyboer’s splash on national scene tops list of strong Spartan underclassmen
GEORGIA RHODES/THE STATE NEWS
Sophomore forward Laura Heyboer heads the ball away from Penn State defense Emma Thomson in the first half a game against Penn State on Sept. 27. Heyboer scored the gamewinning goal in overtime.
Our list of best freshman performances of the decade is higlighted by a group of athletes who not only had phenomenal breakout seasons, but went on to have illustrious careers. Some of them have seen their playing days at MSU come to an end, while others continue to re-write the record books on a daily basis. 1. Laura Heyboer, 2008 — All she did was record a hat trick in her first career game and finish the season with 21 goals. The Hudsonville, Mich., native was named Big Ten Offensive Player of the Year, Big Ten Freshman of the Year, Soccerbuzz.com National Freshman of the Year and NSCAA All-American. 2. Allyssa DeHaan, 200607 — No moment defines
DeHaan’s freshman season better than when she took Ohio State All-American center Jessica Davenport to task for 25 points, eight rebounds and five blocks, leading MSU to a 62-59 win against the No. 4 Buckeyes. DeHaan averaged 12.5 points and 7.5 rebounds a game on the season. n Her accolade-filled career continues this season, but DeHaan already is the program’s leader in blocked shots and is closing in on the NCAA career record. 3. Brett Swenson, 2006 — The Florida recruit finally brought some stability to the position and was named Freshman All-American. Swenson concluded this season as the MSU football program’s all-time leader in field goals, points scored and extra points.
4. Manouk Vernij, 2009 — Second Team All-Big Ten honoree recorded 36 points and led the Big Ten in assists during regular season conference play. 5. Jeff Lerg, 2005-06 — Stole the starting job early in the season and never looked back, posting a 17-6-6 record and 1.96 goals-against average. Honorable Mention Lauren Hill, led team in goals (8) and points (18) and was named to Big Ten AllFreshman team (2006) Chantae Miller, scored 34 points and was named second team All-Big Ten (2008) Zach Randolph, averaged 10.6 points 6.7 rebounds per game, helping team to Final Four (2000-01) A.J. Thelen, named AllAmerican with 11 goals and 18 assists (2003-04)

Men pardoned posthumously South Carolina pardoned syndicated radio host Tom Joyner’s great-uncles Wednesday, nearly a century after they were sent to the electric chair for the 1913 murder of a Confederate Army veteran. Officials believe the two men are the first in the state to be posthumously pardoned in a capital murder case. Black landowners Thomas and Meeks Griffin were executed 94 years ago after a jury convicted them of killing 73-year-old John Lewis, a wealthy white veteran living in Blackstock, a Chester County town 40 miles north of Columbia. Two other black men were also put to death for the crime. “This won’t bring them back, but this will bring closure. I hope now that they rest in peace,” Joyner said. “This is a good day.” Joyner, who lives in Dallas, and his attorney made a presentation to the state parole and pardon board on Wednesday, then left the room while the board voted. Family members who flew in for the hearing included his wife and sons, of Dallas, and brother and his family, from Jackson, Miss. Though he talks to roughly 8 million listeners on the radio daily, Joyner said facing the seven board members “scared me to death.” When he was told how they voted, he said he waved his hands and hugged family members in a flood of relief and joy. He also called in to his radio show.

Officials: Child not in balloon FORT COLLINS, Colo. (AP) — A 6-year-old boy was found hiding in a cardboard box in his family’s garage attic Thursday after being feared aboard a homemade helium balloon that hurtled 50 miles through the sky on live television. The discovery marked a bizarre end to a saga that started when the giant silvery balloon floated away from the family’s yard Thursday morning, sparking a frantic rescue operation that involved military helicopters and briefly shut down Denver International Airport. But Sheriff Jim Alderden turned to reporters during a news conference and gave a thumbs up and said 6-yearold Falcon Heene is “at the house.” ‘’Apparently he’s been there the whole time,” he said. The boy’s father, Richard Heene, said the family was tinkering with the balloon Thursday and that he scolded Falcon for getting inside a compartment on the craft. He said Falcon’s brother had seen him inside the compartment before it took off and that’s why they thought he was in there when it launched.

Tensions rise after incursions
FOLLOW US ONLINE
SEOUL, South Korea — North Korea warned South Korea on Thursday that a spate of incursions along their disputed sea border could spark a naval clash, in what analysts said was a threat to reinflame tensions if it doesn’t get what it wants from recent conciliatory gestures. After months of provocations including nuclear and missile tests, North Korea has recently reached out to Seoul and Washington. It freed American and South Korean detainees, lifted restrictions on border crossings and resumed reunions of families separated by the Korean War. This week, however, it has sent mixed signals to the outside world, starting with a barrage of short-range missile tests on Monday. Media reports said the North appeared ready to test-fi re more missiles, but it offered a rare apology Wednesday for releasing a torrent of water from a dam that caused a deadly flood in South Korea. On Thursday, the North accused South Korean warships of broaching its territory in waters off their west coast — the scene of deadly naval skirmishes in 1999 and 2002.
