Engineer chronicles relief work By Breanne Van Nostrand Staff Writer

andrew renneisen | staff photographer Bernard Amadei , founding president of Engineers Without Borders-USA, elaborates on the limited access 90 percent of the world has to technology needed for certain infrastructure in the last University Lecture on Tuesday. He noted the particular joy his work has given children.

When Bernard Amadei saw a little girl in Belize forced to carry water rather than go to school, he used his engineering background to help her village, which had no water supply. Engineers have to hold public welfare above all else, combining the heart and mind for the greater good, Amadei said during his lecture titled “Engineering for the Developing World: From Crisis to Development.” Amadei, a civil engineering professor at the University of Colorado at Boulder and founding president of the Engineers Without Borders-USA organization, closed this semester’s University Lecture series with his talk Tuesday. In that village in Belize, Amadei and eight students installed a pump to supply drinking water to the 250 residents with a $14,000 budget, he said. And the positive impact on the village was noticeable. Girls who were previ-

Customers, owners reflect on 36 years of King David’s Interest in free By Michael Boren Asst. News Editor

Jack Yuan sits a few steps away from the kitchen in the back corner of King David’s Restaurant, the same place he has sat every day since 1981. Finishing his meal next to a table where the restaurant’s co-owner talks, he compares the Middle Eastern food to those of other countries. The falafel is just like the falafel in Jerusalem, and the hummus is like that of Beirut, he said. From Yuan’s perspective, one of the restaurant’s co-owners, Milad Hatem, has not changed much in three decades. “Milad doesn’t look older than 30 years ago,” Yuan said. But family members say 76-year-

old Hatem is nearing retirement age and that King David’s, a restaurant that has served Middle Eastern cuisine on Marshall Street since 1974, may give way to a Chipotle Mexican Grill. Some customers have eaten at King David’s for decades and said they would be upset to see it go. The Syracuse Common Council unanimously approved Chipotle’s proposal to replace King David’s on Nov. 8. King David’s would lease the building to Chipotle under the new deal, which is not finalized. Chipotle has talked to the family-owned restaurant for eight months, said Milad’s son, Charlie, who has worked at King David’s for 25 years. “We’re not really 100 percent sure if that’s what we want to do yet,”

Charlie said. “It’s hard to let go of a business that you’ve been a part of for so many years.” If the restaurant completes the deal, Charlie will take over King David’s and try to relocate it in the Syracuse University or downtown Syracuse area as a smaller operation, he said. The economy has already taken a toll on King David’s, which saw its number of dinnertime customers drop when the recession hit, Milad said. He did not have an exact number on the decrease. But he said the restaurant still sees customers from around the world. “Every day I have a lot of people from different countries,” he said. “Greek, Turkish, Italian — you

know, it’s mixed.” The restaurant’s look has changed since it first opened in the 1970s. Where the kitchen is now, there used to be five stairs leading up to a room that resembled a “cave,” Charlie said. The room had a lopsided floor, a dark red carpet, cracked walls, orange leather seats and tables that could hold 30 to 40 customers. “The tables were so close together, but people loved sitting in that room,” Charlie said. Outside of that room, archways separated the cooking area from the seating area. The whole building resembled a house turned into a restaurant, Charlie said. But that all changed on SU’s gradsee king david’s page 6

Medal of Honor awarded for bravery

U.S. President Barack Obama awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor Tuesday to an Army staff sergeant who put himself in the line of fire in Afghanistan to attempt to save his fellow squad members and to comfort and protect a dying U.S. soldier, according to The New York Times. Staff Sgt. Salvatore A. Giunta, 25, was an Army specialist when he was hit in the chest with a bullet during a firefight in Afghanistan in 2007. Giunta is the first living member to receive the Medal of Honor for action during a war since Vietnam. The Medal of Honor is the military’s most prestigious award. Giunta and the other soldiers of Company B, Second Battalion (Airborne), 503rd Infantry Regiment, were part of an effort to provide medical care, winter clothing and food to remote villages in Afghanistan. The soldiers were then ambushed in a coordinated attack from three different sides in the Korangal Valley. The ceremony held in the East Room was packed as Obama retold the events of Oct. 25, 2007, in front of Giunta’s family and other Army officers, according to The New York Times.

EU pilots exempt from security program

An Israeli security program that mandates commercial pilots from airlines in certain countries to transmit special identification clearance codes before flying into Israel’s airspace will not be enforced upon pilots with airlines from the European Union, according to The New York Times. The United States is one of the countries mandated to transmit the special codes before entering Israel. Israel is currently negotiating an air transport agreement with the European Union that could greatly expand air travel between Europe and Israel. The Israeli security program started last year as an experiment with some foreign airlines to eventually apply to every foreign carrier that enters Israel. Israel, which is known for its particularly strict security, is worried that airliners could be utilized by its enemies as bombs, according to The New York Times.

SU routes unchanged in bus cuts By Lauren Levy Contributing Writer

Proposed changes to several Centro bus routes will have minimal effects on Syracuse University students who use the bus. The Central New York Regional Transportation Authority is planning to combine or eliminate several Centro routes due to dwindling revenues, but none are routes SU students typically use. “We have been under financial constraint for some time now, and with New York state revenues down, we cannot continue to operate without some cuts,” said Casey Brown, communications coordinator for the transportation authority. Centro’s revenues come from a combination of New York state aid and a share of the mortgage recording tax revenues. Those revenues dropped to about $1.7 million in the past couple of years, and state aid for 2011 is set to be $1.8 million less than in previous years. Centro has been able to mitigate the impact of three years of underperforming revenue streams through the use of reserve funds and a fare increase, among other measures, said Frank Kobliski, executive director of the transportation authority, in a statement on Centro’s website. “Unless there is a significant shift in policy at the New York state level toward funding of public transit, we will be forced to re-size many Centro services accordingly in 2011,” he said in the statement. These proposed cuts would consolidate four Auburn/Syracuse routes into see centro page 4

OTN re-brands, works to expand support By Kristin Ross

Contributing Writer

Orange Television Network, Syracuse University’s 6-year-old station, is trying to re-brand itself and reach out to students outside of communications majors. Although OTN’s office is based in the S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications, Samantha Hayden, OTN’s promotion manager, said she has been hired this year to combat the stereotype that OTN is

meant only for Newhouse students. “Yes, the staff is primarily composed of Newhouse students and its home is at Newhouse, but it’s not meant for Newhouse students only,” said Hayden, a senior advertising major. OTN is SU’s own TV station that airs content produced by students at CitrusTV. It can be viewed 24/7 anywhere on campus on Channel 2, 2.1 or 2.2 on a high-definition TV. Content is also always available

streaming on its website. Although SU has had a version of CitrusTV for more than 30 years, none of its content had ever been broadcast around campus until OTN, said Andrew Robinson, OTN’s general manager. As of last year, OTN is the country’s first student-run campus cable TV station being broadcast in high definition. “Some of the best students in the see otn page 4

Nonprofit encourages wearing denim Wednesday to raise awareness of youth diabetes By David Propper Staff Writer

Alyssa Hennessy saw how difficult it is to fight diabetes during the past three summers when she was the nanny for a young boy with Type 1 diabetes. “I just became really attached to him and saw his struggle with testing his blood sugar every day and counting carbs and all his food,” said Hennessy, a senior advertising major. Now Hennessy is helping out with Wednesday’s Denim Day, during which people across 17 northeastern counties will wear jeans to raise awareness for juvenile diabetes. Those who donate at least $10 to the spon-

sor, the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation, will also receive a sticker with a jean pocket design that reads “Denim for Diabetes.” Every hour in the United States, three people are diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes, according to the National Institute of Health. In the Central New York area, there are more than 1,500 juveniles diagnosed with the life-threatening disease. Hennessy, who is interning at the organization, said Denim Day is meant to promote awareness that may eventually lead to donations to find a cure. Denim was chosen to wear because

the color blue is also the color for diabetes awareness. Eighty-five cents to every dollar donated for Denim Day will go directly to research. “We are just trying to get the word out there in regards to what Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation can do for Central New York and what we are all about,” said Jennifer Wilson, a member of the foundation. The foundation tried to get in touch with corporations as another way to receive donations, Wilson said. At least four corporations are involved in Denim Day. November is National Diabetes Month, prompting Wednesday’s

event. In addition to Wednesday’s event, the foundation is marking the month by receiving a proclamation from Syracuse Mayor Stephanie Miner. The Niagara Mohawk Building shined blue lights to represent diabetes awareness. “When you have an international foundation like this, it can get lost in really connecting to its community,” Hennessy said. “So the JDRF’s having all these branches as part of their community really helps them to reach out and really connect with community, family and friends.” The foundation offers a number of other services to help children who

have been diagnosed with diabetes. It sets up support groups for parents and children who are going through the battle of diabetes and acclimates newly diagnosed children to their new way of life by coming up with a plan their school nurse can follow. Wilson also has firsthand experience with this illness because her mother is diabetic. Especially for the parents who are new to this process, it can be overwhelming and nerveracking, Wilson said. “At three in the morning,” she said, “you wake up out of a dead sleep because your child might not wake up.” dgproppe@syr.edu

two, eliminate the run between Fairmount/West Genesee and Syracuse, and combine two routes between Cicero/North Syracuse and Syracuse. “These changes will have minimal impact on Syracuse University students,” Brown said. “We are trying to save money by looking at routes that were underperforming and making a decision that will impact the least but that will make a financial difference.” These are not the first bus route changes by Centro this year. On March 1, Centro discontinued its Oak Darlington and Minoa/Suburban East routes, according to an article published in The Daily Orange on March 9. Centro also made changes in stops and times for the East Colvin and SU Nob Hill routes, according to the article. An estimated 50 to 100 people will be affected by the changes, but plans are still flexible until Centro’s Board of Directors gives approval. There will be two public hearings Tuesday in Port Byron and at Bishop Ludden Junior/Senior High School before the board’s hearing Nov. 29 to finalize plans.

country go here,” Robinson said. “They deserve to be introduced to the best technology available.” Hayden, the promotion manager, is working on moving from the traditional platform of advertising, such as tabling at Schine Student Center and hanging posters around campus,

“We do as much research as we possibly can before presenting plans for changes,” Brown said. “But we also have to listen to folks who are being affected and find a happy medium because we don’t want people to feel like they were left behind.” Changes to the routes will be effective Jan. 17. Should finances not improve, more routes could be cut in April, Brown said. But Centro is hoping gas prices will decrease and riders will increase to prevent further cuts in the spring, he said. “It is just a matter of timing,” Brown said. “If the economy does not turn around, then we may have to consider consolidating more routes in the near future.” Some SU students said they are happy nonSU routes are being changed, rather than fares going up for the whole system. “If they are going to narrow down our bus options, they better not charge us more, too,” said Adele Pedulla, a sophomore sculpture major. “There is already so much waiting involved when you want to get somewhere by bus, hopefully these changes won’t make it any harder to travel.” lalevy@syr.edu

to more online-based advertising, such as purchasing advertisements for Facebook, she said. This year, OTN created a new job and hired someone to manage the network’s Facebook and Twitter social networking websites. Hayden said her goal is to have 500 followers by the end of the semester and 750 by the end of the year. “It’s not about getting the followers,” she said. “It’s getting the support.” klross01@syr.edu

Luxury fashion brands push toward Chinese market

ashion, whether in terms of the consumer or the industry itself, is all about chasing the trends. Most trends are only around for a few seasons or at least until the magazines and bloggers deem them “so last year.” However, some trends stay because they’ve found a balance between consumer interest and brand interest. Just take a look at the evolution of leopard print, the color black and even social media. The best trends are not just the ones that stay but the ones that change fashion forever. This is the case for fashion’s latest craze: China. “China is forecast to become the world’s top buyer of luxury goods by 2015,” according to consulting firm PricewaterhouseCoopers in an article published in The Independent

on Sept. 15. With Western countries still struggling in the recession, luxury brands are now looking toward the East for sales boosts and new brand identities. Designer labels, such as Louis Vuitton, Hermes and Cartier, are sprouting up retail stores all over China, specifically in its biggest cities: Hong Kong, Shanghai and Beijing. The recent emergence of China as a growing fashion empire is definitely seen as new, intimidating territory. Most brands are still behind on incorporating China into their five-year plans. For one, China has always been known as a country heavily reliant on its export growth and cheap labor. Brands labeled as “Made in China” come with negative connotations and are often seen as fake imitations of the real thing. But with high-end

i’m judging you brands moving in, the country is looking to build a more extravagant image for itself. Credibility is slowly being brought back into the hands of the Chinese. Another concern brands have with China is of course the cultural gap between the East and the West. “When it comes to attracting China’s new wealth, the challenge for some of the world’s most iconic luxury brands is figuring out how to appeal to a consumer base that is

constantly evolving and is, in many ways, very different from traditional markets in the West,” wrote Bettina Wassener in an article published in The New York Times on Nov. 8. Going back to the longevity of trends in fashion, it’s important for brands to find ways to appeal to consumers. Labels such as Hérmes and Louis Vuitton have succeeded in the Chinese market because they have found a common interest: heritage. “Brands with a long history, like Hérmes, particularly appeal to the Chinese ‘self-made man,’ who has worked hard to obtain a higher rank and are educating themselves on the value of what they buy,” according to an article published in The New York Times on Nov. 9. As a country with so much history, China prides itself on its heritage and is naturally drawn to brands that

do the same. This is why old brands like Gucci and Chanel thrive in China and often find lines of wealthy Chinese people waiting to wipe the shelves clean. After years of backwash, China is finally moving into the frontier of fashion. Luxury labels have been quick to see this trend, and it’s only a matter of time before it trickles down to high-end and low-end department stores. But building interest and awareness is easier said than done, and if a brand struggles to find its place in China, then it should be prepared to get trampled over. All’s fair in the business of fashion, so either get with the program or wait for extinction. Vicki Ho is a senior public relations major.

Someone threw a cigarette into empty boxes in the alley behind the restaurant, igniting a blaze that burned the building’s second floor and leaked water damage to the lower floor, where the restaurant was located. The tanning beds inside a tanning salon that Charlie and his brother owned on the second floor melted. “That was probably one of our saddest days right there in this whole restaurant for my dad and my mom,” Charlie said. “They were

Sitting next to Schiff, Mark Bowick, another SU physics professor, said he has been coming to the restaurant since 1987. “It’s lively, lots of people eating here,” he said. Rosette Aksterowicz, daughter of the King David’s owners, has been a waitress to customers at the restaurant for two years, when she was 16 to 18 years old. The place has a very loyal customer following, she said. She recognizes costumers from 20 years ago, she said. Aksterowicz’s mom used to pick her up from school nearly three times a week and bring her

standing outside watching their business and building burn down.” The family decided to knock down the building because of the damage and rebuild it. Construction took nearly eight months, leading to a more open restaurant that could seat about 20 additional people. But the new design had a less cozy and intimate feel than the previous King David’s, Charlie said. “I wish we never knocked down that building,” he said, recalling the previous restaurant’s look during a break from work on Monday. A picture of the old building sticks out today from the dessert display case next to the cash machine, along with photos of the owners’ grandchildren. Red rugs guide customers at the front of the restaurant to the cashier as they pass by framed pictures and large rugs hanging on the walls. Ten years ago, the restaurant also added dinnertime entertainment. Every couple of weeks, four belly dancers bring their own music and dance in front of dinnertime customers for nearly three hours. The restaurant’s customers range from hospital workers to university faculty and students. Some customers have been coming to King David’s for at least two decades. Eric Schiff, an SU physics professor, has visited the restaurant since the early 1980s. Waiting for a cup of Turkish coffee during lunch on Friday, he called King David’s less predictable and more personable than the other eateries on Marshall Street. “I like Middle Eastern food. This is the only

to the restaurant, where Aksterowicz would watch her mom cook in the kitchen, she said. “This was like my second home,” she said. “I used to come here all the time as a kid.” The restaurant’s decision to possibly relocate was more about her dad looking to retire than the lower number of customers in the past four or five years, she said. But larger chain restaurants are replacing smaller businesses in all areas, she said. Even with other family members saying the relocation of King David’s is likely, Angela Hatem, the co-owner of the restaurant, said the family will “never close it.” “I told my husband if I die, he can bury me in the basement,” she said. But her son and husband said the negotiations with Chipotle continue. For longtime customer Rosemary Gates, the closure of King David’s would be disappointing, she said. Gates, a professor of mental health at the Crouse Hospital School of Nursing, has been eating at the restaurant for 18 years during her half-hour lunch breaks. The fast service was great at King David’s, Gates said, because of her short break time from work. One waitress at King David’s used to know what Gates and her friends ordered on the spot. “There’s really only a couple of cornerstone places that have been here for a long time, and this is one of them,” she said. “So it’ll be sad to see that go.” mcboren@syr.edu

for free small claims court counseling, said Alejandro Fernandez-Lovo, project coordinator for the local chapter of NYPIRG. NYPIRG would like to see more students take advantage of the program and is in need of more counselors, Fernandez-Lovo said. In Syracuse, small claim cases are those that have a monetary loss of up to $5,000. NYPIRG is the only group that offers this counseling service for free in the state. It has been offering small claims court counseling since the group’s foundation in 1973. But traffic from students is not nearly as high as that from other members of the Syracuse community. This semester NYPIRG has not counseled any students yet, and last semester NYPIRG only counseled a few, Fernandez-Lovo said. Most students in situations in which a small claims court could help do not know what road to take, he said. “Students don’t really know who to turn to,” Fernandez-Lovo said. “It feels good that there is a group out there that can help out the student step by step into the process.” NYPIRG has been promoting its program by putting announcements on the radio, visiting classrooms and putting up posters on campus, Fernandez-Lovo said. Calls from community members keep Fernandez-Lovo and the other counselors busy, he said. His office receives up to 10 calls a day requesting small claims court counseling, Fernandez-Lovo said. “Residents of Syracuse who contact the office love the fact that we are there,” Fernandez-Lovo said. “We get calls a lot every week.” Most of the counseling is done by students themselves.

ously made to carry water were then able to attend school, he said. Shortly after his work in Belize, Engineers Without Borders-USA was born and now includes more than 12,000 members in 225 chapters nationwide as of October 2010. Its members design environmentally sustainable engineering projects in at least 45 countries. Amadei is also a co-founder of the international Engineers Without Borders network. Engineers Without Borders has taken part in more than 400 projects, which are chosen for completion out of a pool of applicants by professional engineers. Amadei said he considers the organization to be a small-scale, practical brand of engineering, improving countries by using appropriate and sustainable technology. He said it is not a charity organization but is more driven to teach and empower people. “Find out what people do and help them do it better,” he said. The engineers focus on practical engineering, taking into account many aspects of the culture for which they are designing. Their projects meet the countries’ simple needs, can create jobs at the local level and can enrich daily life. Amadei mentioned a project in which the organization installed a telemedicine network in Yanamono, Peru, so that the sick do not need to travel long distances for basic medical care. Amadei spoke of his many experiences in developing countries, showing pictures of his travels and often mentioning the need for more heart in engineering. He recalled an instance in which he saw a child smile because he was given a light bulb and was able to do his homework. A large gap remains between today’s tech-

Stromecki became a counselor a couple weeks ago and is working on her first case. “It’s a really good experience as far as understanding the legal system and being able to advocate for people and give them advice,” Stromecki said. The only requirement to become a student counselor is to be enrolled in SU or ESF. All

Counselors offer help at any stage of the legal process, from filing the claim to preparing the case. “We give the customers as much help as they want,” Stromecki said. “We can sit on the phone with them for 10 minutes and give them a broad overview. Or we can go step by step with them through the process.” Counselors cannot provide legal advice or courtroom representation. But they can inform and assist the people who seek their services. “A lot of the times, they have never filed a claim before,” Stromecki said. “We tell them what to expect and give them various options as to how they can approach filing the claim.” bfgraula@syr.edu

nological advances and the needs of the world’s majority, Amadei said. Today’s technology caters to about 10 percent of the global population, often leaving the majority — sometimes literally — in the dark, without electricity, clean water, adequate sanitation or housing. “If I were an alien coming to this planet,” Amadei said, “I’d say there’s something wrong here.” The principal obstacle to overcome is the lack of compassion, not funds, Amadei said. America has these funds, but they have not been applied, he said. He called for a new generation of engineers as social entrepreneurs, commu-

Peacemaking is not a goal of their projects but is instead an outcome, he said. “When you look at engineering and you think of technology, you don’t think of the small things that have such a big impact,” said Maxwell Perrin, a freshman civil engineering major. At the end of his lecture, Amadei challenged those in attendance to write a personal mission statement including a unique gift they are willing to share with the world.

Brigham Young University looks into finding source of human skulls

By Meghin Delaney

Staff Writer

hree human skulls were sent to Brigham Young University last month via the U.S. Postal Service. The skulls themselves have now been dated, but the source of the surprising mail is still undetermined. Broken 12th-century skulls were delivered by the U.S. Postal Service in a priority shipping mailbox on Oct. 26. The skulls were the only thing in the box mailed to BYU. They were wrapped in bubble wrap and still had some dirt on them. There was no note or explanation included in the package, BYU police Lt. Arnold Lemmon said. “We don’t know who sent it or why they sent it to BYU,” Lemmon said. The package was addressed to the BYU historical department, a department that does not exist at BYU. The package ended up at the BYU history department. The skulls were immediately turned over to the BYU police when the package was opened, according to an article published in BYU’s student newspaper, The Daily Universe, on Nov. 1. “At first glance, the skulls appeared to be very, very old, so we didn’t think we had a homicide on our hands or anything like that,” Lemmon said. The return address of the package read “Jim Crow, Route 3-126, Augusta, Mont.” That particular sender and address in Montana do not actually exist, Lemmon said. The BYU Police Department then joined with the police force in Montana to try to find the

sender. “We sent our reports to the sheriff of that county in Montana. They did an investigation and reported back to us,” Lemmon said. “They even went to the post office to interview the postmaster, who could not remember that particular package.” Although the skulls were sent to BYU very close to Halloween, Lemmon said he does not think Halloween had anything to do with the timing of the delivery. The broken skulls were handed over to the Utah State Department of Archaeology and were determined to date between 1100 and 1300 A.D. The skulls are from the Fremont Native American tribe in the Utah area. The bones were also determined to come from three different skulls and not two, as originally thought. Plans for the skulls depend on whether the tribe is interested in them. “They’ll contact representatives of that tribe, and if that tribe wants the skulls, they will give them to the tribe. Otherwise they’ll go into reservation storage,” Lemmon said. A law passed in 1990, called the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act, requires any Native American remains be turned over to their people, according to the article published in BYU’s student newspaper. Lemmon said the skulls may have been sent to BYU in response to the act, as has happened in the past. Last year family members found a skull in their son’s room after he had moved out, were unsure of what to do with it and called BYU, Lemmon said. The university also turned

the skulls over to the state archeology department in that instance, he said. There was a federal investigation going on at the same time last year into a group of people who had been illegally collecting Native American artifacts. Lemmon said this might make people nervous about having Native American artifacts in their homes. “I’m guessing that this is somebody who had these three skulls and read the article last year and decided to get rid of these,” Lemmon said.

Lemmon said as far as BYU and the BYU Police Department are concerned, this case is closed. “There’s no criminal act that we can see as a police department,” Lemmon said. “We’ve identified the general area where the skulls were found and where they are from, so I think it’s more of an ethical thing now for the sender to step forward.” medelane@syr.edu

Club sport gets hairy for charity By Brittany Fowler Contributing Writer

Just as a pink ribbon is worn as a symbol for breast cancer, a mustache is grown in November as a statement for prostate cancer. The Syracuse University club lacrosse team members have ditched their razors and allowed their facial hair to grow to raise awareness in Syracuse for Movember, a charity event to raise awareness about men’s health. Movember is derived from the fusion of the Australian slang term for mustache, “mo,” and the month of November, used in reference to “noshave November.” Throughout the month, a large majority of the players will not shave to raise both awareness of prostate cancer and money for the American Cancer Society. “We have a few guys on the team that have recently had family members affected by cancer, and we thought this is a good way to raise some money,” said Matt O’Donnell, a graduate student in the School of Information Studies and one of the captains of the team, in an e-mail. This year 35 club players chose not to shave for the entire month. Some members of the team started growing their facial hair at the beginning of November. Other members began growing their mustaches before Nov. 1 to begin raising awareness early. The captains encouraged the idea, and the rest of the team supported it, said Marty Spears, a junior civil engineering major and a team member. At the beginning of the month, team members were given sheets on which they filled in their names and how long they would avoid the blade. “It’s for however long you choose not to shave,” said Pat Grant, a junior mechanical engineering major. The players convinced their friends and others they knew to sponsor them. Sponsors could give a set amount of money per week or donate a flat rate if the player has to shave before the month is out, O’Donnell said. “Older guys have gotten more people to pledge,” said Ryan Forman, a freshman on the team and an entrepreneurship and emerging enterprises major. “I’m just going to donate money myself.” The money will be collected and donated in December to the American Cancer Society. O’Donnell said he has no idea how much money the team will raise by the end of the month. Grant said Thanksgiving bears an issue because some players do not want to return home for the holiday with untamed facial hair. O’Donnell see movember page 12

ith passports in hand and aprons decorated with their own logos, children at Parkside Commons in Syracuse are ready to learn about Chinese culture. Monday marked their first lesson: the difference between Chinese and American schools, complete with a Tai Chi lesson. Today they will learn about calligraphy and the Chinese language, as well as make trainer chopsticks, among other things. And on Thursday they will make eggrolls and steamed vegetables using a bamboo steamer. “They’ve decorated their aprons, and they’ve made their logos,” said Bobby Gillen, assistant director of the Mary Ann Shaw Center of Public and Community Service. “They’re thrilled and excited.” These lessons are part of the “Books and Cooks!” program, which is currently in its pilot semester. It serves to improve literacy and teach healthy eating habits. Although CPCS runs both literacy and nutri-

tion programs, “Books and Cooks!” is the first that combines literacy, nutrition and culture. It is also unique because it focuses on students 7 to 10 years old, rather than middle school students, said Victoria Li, a junior nutrition major and the nutrition coordinator of the program. Parkside Commons, a Section 8 apartment complex, is an area where families live below the poverty level, said Ann Wendt, director of the Catholic Charities’ after-school program at Parkside Commons. “It seemed like a good place to go,” Gillen said. “It’s certainly a community and area of the city that is in need.” Most of the children come from one-parent families who are paid minimum wage and want to go back to school, Wendt said. Most of the parents did not graduate from high school, making it hard for them to find a job, she said. “(The children) are so excited because they get the attention here that they don’t get at home,” she said.

SU students, alumni expose local children to new cultures, foods After attending the Clinton Global Initiative Conference for two years straight, three tutors from the Syracuse University Literacy Corps decided they would submit the “Books and Cooks!” idea to the conference. “The third time we said, ‘All right, we’re going to do something a little bigger and more challenging for us,’” said Tim Biba, a senior public relations and political science major and a coordinator of the “Books and Cooks!” program. The goal was to create a project more meaningful to the community, he said. His partners at the time, Greg Klotz and Kate Callahan, both 2010 SU alumni, worked together to create the program with the help of CPCS. “There’s a lot of need,” Biba said, “and so we decided we’re going to focus on our traditional aspect of literacy but also work on nutritional eating habits.” Biba and his partners directed “Books and Cooks!” toward Parkside Commons.

Facebook study shows most breakups occur before holidays By Nick Gallagher Warren CONTRIBUTING WRITER

Plenty of broken hearts may appear on Facebook during the next few weeks. People are more likely to break up with their partner two weeks before the holiday season and between Valentine’s Day and Spring Break, according to a study published on CNN’s website Nov. 4. David McCandless, a British journalist and graphic designer specializing in showcasing data through visuals, conducted the study. McCandless sifted through 10,000 Facebook status updates over the course of a year, looking for the phrases “breakup” or “broken up.” McCandless compiled his data into a graph he presented at a Technology, Entertainment, Design conference in Oxford, England, this past July. TED talks are a global set of conferences meant to discuss new ideas. The graph shows the times of year a person is most and least likely to break up with a significant other. Laurence Thomas, a philosophy professor at Syracuse University, said he was not surprised by the study’s findings. “The article’s conclusions seem plausible enough, especially for college students,” he said. “The age of commitment nowadays is surely not between 18 and 21. There is too much to be said for exploring and pursuing one’s own agenda.” McCandless called the fi rst time period between Valentine’s Day and mid-March, or right before Spring Break, “spring cleaning.” It was one of several times during the year when

couples seemed to break up more often. For some SU students, the time is appropriate for breakups because they do not want to be in a relationship during vacation. Greg Banos, a freshman business major, said he broke up with his girlfriend before Spring Break last year. “I was going to be headed off to college,” he said. “I didn’t see a real future between us, and I didn’t want to be tied down in my last summer with my friends before college.” The second time of year that causes people to change their relationship status is about two weeks before the holiday season. Molly Logigian, an undeclared freshman in the College of Arts and Sciences, had her own particular name for it. “It’s the turkey dump,” Logigian said. “A lot of couples break up right after Thanksgiving.” McCandless’ study shows April Fools’ Day as a very popular day to break up. It also shows Monday as the most common day of the week for relationships to end. The study also shows the days when the least amount of people break up. Christmas Day had the lowest number of breakup Facebook posts. In fact, the safest days of the year for relationships are holidays. According to the study, there is a sharp decrease in the possibility of a breakup on Christmas, Thanksgiving, Easter and New Year’s. “Oftentimes it’s the right person,” said Avi Steinbach, a freshman advertising major, “just the wrong time.” ndgallag@syr.edu

Point guard ESPN’s comprehensive ‘ScoreCenter’ app keeps mobile users in the game

By Nephtaly Rivera STAFF WRITER

ith basketball and football in full swing both professionally and at Syracuse University, there are more teams and scores to keep track of than ever. That is where “ESPN ScoreCenter” comes in. With the application, users can get instant scores, statistics and news on any team in any league. With a clean design, “ScoreCenter” is clear and easy to use. The app opens to a main screen on which the user can scroll through different sports menus. Users then choose the sports from which they would like to see results. This is where “ScoreCenter” sets itself apart from other sports apps. The user can select from the most popular sports to the more obscure, such as lacrosse, mixed martial arts or even cricket. Whatever your sport of choice, “ScoreCenter” will have the information for it. Once the user has his or her favorite sport chosen, a tap on a particular game instantly brings up stats from the action. The app provides a list of top performers, stats leaders and the standings for that team’s league. Every game also links to a page on ESPN’s mobile website on which users can read full recaps of games, as well as see a more comprehensive list of team and player stats. The app also has one of ESPN’s signature features, the BottomLine, which is a ticker on the bottom of the screen that runs through the

dailyorange.com

latest scores. The BottomLine runs through headlining news from different parts of the sports world and offers a link to ESPN’s mobile website. If the user wants it, the app will send breaking sports news alerts and frequent score updates to the device. For example, if the Syracuse basketball team is playing, the app can send an alert for when the game begins, the halftime score and the final score. While the exact notifications vary for every sport, such as getting a message for every inning in baseball or every quarter in football, the user is able to customize which ones to receive based on his or her personal preferences. If the small iPhone keyboard just isn’t cutting it and a larger screen will better serve your sporting needs, you can log on to ESPN’s website from any computer to make changes to your profile with ease. Users can sign up for a free membership and choose their favorite teams and sports to follow. Log back on to “ScoreCenter” and see your changes reflected on your mobile myTeams menu. As with other free apps available, “ScoreCenter” carries advertisements on every screen. However, the designers do a good job of making them small and non-intrusive. They appear near the very bottom of the screen and change every time the user switches screens. Not only are the ads a tolerable size, they are usually relevant to a sports fan, such as an upcoming ESPN coverage of a game or show.

The biggest downfall of “ScoreCenter” is the need for a Wi-Fi connection. This is not a problem with an iPhone, but with the iPod Touch, a Wi-Fi illustration by luis rendon | design editor connection is necessary to access any information, making viewing stats on-the-go harder. This is the only major problem with the app, dragging its rating down from a perfect score. It doesn’t matter if sports are a No. 1 love or just a hobby. ESPN’s “ScoreCenter” is a simple way to follow everything happening in the sports world. nerivera@syr.edu

also said several of the players have a job or internship interviews during the month, which creates problems when trying to maintain a clean-shaven face.

to Action is an initiative that focuses on diverse issues, including education, alleviating poverty, global health, and global and climate change, according to CGI’s website. A few weeks after submitting the team’s Commitment to Action plan to the Clinton Foundation, Biba received a phone call asking for more information about the project. “I thought that was interesting because in the past two years when we submitted things, they said, ‘Congratulations, you were accepted, come to the conference,’” Biba said. This year, Dean Lorraine Branham of the S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications, Dean Melvin Stith of the Martin J. Whitman School of Management, and Chancellor Nancy Cantor sponsored the students to go to the conference to represent the university, he said. The group had been given the Outstanding Commitment to Action award for identifying local needs and using local solutions at the conference, he said. “Books and Cooks!” was recognized by both the Clinton Foundation and the Walmart Foundation, which directed a $3,000 grant toward the program. The team now consists of Biba, Li and Allison Stuckless, a junior policy studies and Spanish major who has been a tutor at Parkside Commons for three years. The trio has the assistance of CPCS, which will provide tutors and transportation, Gillen said. The team has a year to garner tangible results with “Books and Cooks!” and plans to

So far the fundraiser appears to be running smoothly, O’Donnell said. Many players are bringing in a varying amount of donations. As for actually having to deal with growing the facial hair, some are having more luck than others. “There are guys on the team that don’t really grow facial hair but are still trying,” Forman said. Money collected from the general U.S. Movember campaign is donated to the Prostate Cancer Foundation and LIVESTRONG, Lance Armstrong’s cancer foundation, according to the movement’s website. The Prostate Cancer Foundation uses the money to fund research in finding a cure for prostate cancer, along with funding enhanced treatments. LIVESTRONG uses the money to help fund programs for those trying to conquer the disease and to help the patients’ families get through the battle. “It’s kind of annoying, pretty itchy and looks kind of stupid,” Forman said, “but it’s worth it.”

submit additional goals for the next GIC, he said. Among these goals is a potential exercise component. Wendt said 30 children currently take part in the Catholic Charities’ after-school program at Parkside Commons. Of those 30, 12 are taking part in the “Books and Cooks!” program, Stuckless said. “I think a lot of the children that attend the program are not on the grade level they should be,” Wendt said. “The reading and math levels are really low.” To improve the children’s literacy, Stuckless said she creates a lesson plan about cultural differences between the country studied and the United States. Each child has his or her own journal — a passport that is laminated with a photo of its respective holder. They use their passports to write what they’ve learned and what they want to learn about, Stuckless said. The children will read books that are related to the culture and split into research groups to learn about food, geography, leisure and art, Stuckless said. In addition to literacy, the program will also have a nutrition component, for which Li creates the lesson plans. “Nutrition is one of those things that is the foundation of everything else that you do in your school day when you’re a kid,” he said. The nutrition component of “Books and Cooks!” is meant to teach the children healthy eating habits and basic skills, such as how to handle a kitchen knife, how to read the food pyramid and how to understand nutrition labels, Biba said. Each cooking session will start with a lesson about the meal of the day, its importance

and new cooking techniques, Li said. With the help of volunteers, the kids will cook the meals and everyone will sit and eat together. To decide what to focus lesson plans on, a pretest was given to the children to see where they stand on nutritional knowledge. The pretest found that the children have trouble differentiating between fruits and vegetables. Their favorite foods consist of cupcakes, candy, chips and soda. “Our goal is to expose them to fresh, healthy, natural foods,” Li said. To determine if the children have made improvements, a post-test identical to the pretest will be given to them at the end of the semester, Li said. Wendt said most of the older kids take care of their younger brothers and sisters, and she hopes they will apply what they learned when they make healthy snacks. The program also has potential long-term benefits for the children. Parents are more likely to focus on immediate needs, such as paying the rent, keeping the heat on and buying food, instead of guiding their children’s study habits, Biba said. “They might lose someone else reinforcing the importance of education as a means to move beyond the current immediate problems,” he said. Stuckless said the kids idolize college students, so tutors are able to build great relationships with them. Working with the tutors gives the kids the positive role model they need, she said. Said Stuckless: “Because we relate to them, they know they can go to college and they can be successful.” lgleveil@syr.edu

Hemingway, Alexander carry Syracuse early By Zach Brown Staff Writer

After Monday night’s thrashing of overmatched Cornell, Quentin Hillsman stepped to the podium for his press conference and went through the positives he took out of the big win. There was the improvement from SU’s first game, a 72-69 win over Northeastern. The execution down the stretch. Good transition offense and fewer mistakes, among other things. But after that list, the first names Hillsman said were two starting members of the Orange frontcourt: Kayla Alexander and Iasia Hemingway. They were the first two Hillsman complimented after the victory over the Big Red, and they have been the driving forces behind SU’s first two wins this year. Alexaander, a sophomore center, and Hemingway, a junior transfer from Georgia Tech, have keyed the Orange (2-0) to massive rebounding and free-throw shooting advantages through two games. Their

“Coach always tells us to play at the rim. We do what we have to do. When he says play at the rim, we do it. We attack the rim, we get to the free-throw line.” Iasia Hemingway

SU forward

styles of play are different, but both of them give Syracuse the ability to score in the paint. “Coach always tells us to play at the rim,” Hemingway said. “We do what we have to do. When he says play at the rim, we do it. We attack the rim, we get to the free-throw line.” Through the first two games, Alexander has led the team with 15.5 points per game while Hemingway is second with 13.5. Neither has taken a 3-point shot, as both players thrive underneath the basket. Alexander’s 6-foot-4 frame creates mismatches for opposing defenses. Against Cornell, she lived in the paint, awaiting dumpdown feeds from her guards on the perimeter. From there, she has the ability to score in a variety of ways: draining a soft hook or easy

layup, drawing a foul and getting to the line or collecting her own miss for an easy putback. Fellow sophomore Carmen Tyson-Thomas said Alexander’s presence in the middle makes it a necessity for SU to get the ball to her on the blocks. “That is always our game plan,” she said, “to give the ball inside low because Kayla always has mismatches. Kayla’as always there. She’s hitting the glass more this year so she happens to be there. And if she’s in position like she’s supposed to, we’re going to get her the ball.” But Hemingway hasn’t scored her points by setting up down low. She has been crashing the boards after Orange shots to snag the offensive rebound. And much of the time, when she pulls in the loose ball, she either puts it back or gets to the free-throw line. Against Cornell, it seemed that whenever the junior pulled in a rebound, someone always managed to end up on the Carrier Dome floor, whether it was a Big Red player or Hemingway herself. Alexander said she enjoys having the Georgia Tech transfer at her side. “I love playing with Iasia,” the sophomore said. “She is a beast on the court. Pretty much when she’s in there, just let her get the rebound or else you’re going to get an elbow or something.” Behind the performance of the frontcourt duo, the Orange has some sizeable edges in two key parts of the game. It has outrebounded Northeastern and Cornell by a combined 117 to 57 and gotten to the free-throw line 41 more times than its opponents. Alexander and Hemingway have 23 free-throw shots between themselves, equaling the combined total for the team’s two opponents. The talent — or lack thereof — of Syracuse’s two opponents has helped Hemingway and Alexander’s success. Northeastern was picked to finish last in the Colonial Athletic Association, and Cornell was ranked second to last in the Ivy League’s preseason rankings. Hemingway has not flashed the ability to create scoring opportunities for herself, and Alexander thrived last year in SU’s nonconference schedule before her play significantly dropped off in Big East play. But in Hillsman’s mind, inside scoring is a major part of the Orange’s offense. And two games into Syracuse’s season, Alexander and Hemingway have been the biggest providers of those points in the paint. “We want to score at the basket,” Hillsman

said. “And it’s so huge to really throw the ball to the high post and go high-low, get the ball to the rim. Obviously, when you can get high percentage shots like that, we’re going to be successful. That’s a very big part of our offense.” zjbrown@ syr.edu

‘You have done a great job all year, and we are going to treat this one like any other field goal, like we do in practice every day,’” Long said Saturday. Syracuse goes undefeated on the road in Big East play When Syracuse put the finishing touches on Rutgers Saturday, it secured its first winning season since 2001 and became bowl eligible for the first time since 2004. The Orange can now chalk up the best season it has ever had on the road in the Big East. With its regular season road schedule completed, the Orange secured itself an undefeated Big East slate when playing away with wins at South Florida, West Virginia, Cincinnati and Rutgers. SU had gone undefeated on the road in the conference three times previously (1996, 1992, 1991), but this season marked the first time SU has gone 4-0 on the road in the conference. Marrone said that record is a representation of the character of the 2010 team at his weekly press conference Monday. “I’ve said it all along, I loved this team from the beginning,” he said. “This team is a team of high character and high core values, and I’ve talked about that before.” Largely due to that road record in the conference, Syracuse is still in the running to win the conference and capture a BCS bowl bid. That’s something the Orange hasn’t been able to do since 1998. Part of the difference, players say, is the change in culture Marrone has brought to the program. Players and coaches are communicating, and there is a sense of togetherness that hasn’t been around in awhile. “We have players that are all looking the same direction, are all on the same page,” senior center

Krautman was named Big East Special Teams Player of the Week after two made field goals against the Scarlet Knights. Ryan Bartholomew said. “Previously I couldn’t always say that. But now I can.” SU’s final two regular season games will be inside the Carrier Dome, where the Orange is 0-2 in conference games. With games against Con-

necticut and Boston College looming, the seniors see this as an opportunity to not only increase Syracuse’s win total but also go out strong. “We’re just trying to go out on top,” Bartholomew said. “For us seniors, it’s our last time

playing in the Dome, and we’re going to go out and do our best to win these two games.”

halves. Each of SU’s first three games began in a similar fashion: a slow start followed by an impressive finish. Though Jardine shined in the second half, the team as a whole struggled. Before the intermission, the Orange converted on just 7-of-32

from the field (21.9 percent), including 2-for-17 from beyond the arc. Boeheim said he’s concerned and is looking for his players to step up and make open shots. “Pretty soon we’re going to play someone who can make a shot,” Boeheim said at the

podium after the game, “and we’re not going to win that game.” Detroit played the majority of the first half in a zone defense, daring Syracuse to fire away from the outside. Until Jardine got hot and the Titans were forced to switch to a man-to-man defense, the strategy worked. “Scoop really carried us tonight,” senior forward Rick Jackson said. “The first half we were really struggling, scoring, and he kept us in there with his scoring. He hit a lot of big shots.” Jackson compiled a career high with 22 rebounds but couldn’t generate offense consistently with Detroit packing it in down low. Taking a page out of Northern Iowa and Canisius’ playbooks, the Titans worked the defensive game plan to near-perfection in the first half, allowing just eight points in the paint. It’s a trend Boeheim said he believes the Orange will continue to see with opponents until it proves it can hit an open jump shot. That’s what he sees as the reason for the firsthalf struggles. “We’re better than this. Whoever said we’re overrated, you can’t listen to those people,” Boeheim said, joking about his comments following a win over Canisius Sunday. “We were definitely overrated in the first half tonight. I think if we take the second halves we’ve played, we’re not overrated.” After losing the team’s two best shooters in Wes Johnson and Andy Rautins, Boeheim is looking for someone to step up and shoot with consistency. Until then, he expects the Orange to struggle. “If Scoop didn’t just pull us up by the shoulders tonight and take the game over, we’d have no chance to win,” Boeheim said. “Absolutely no chance.”

The number of minutes Rick Jackson played in a 10-point, 22-rebound effort. The senior power forward played the entire game. He was the only continuous presence down low for the Orange, as highly touted freshman Fab Melo struggled again, hauling in zero rebounds and scoring just two points.

a slim advantage on the boards at 46-42, Jackson was the single reason for that advantage. The 22 rebounds were a career-high for Jackson, one game after he set a career-high with 13 rebounds against Canisius. “Rick is the one I really tip my hat to,” SU small forward Kris Joseph said. “Twenty-two rebounds. That was the key for us tonight.” Though most of the Orange struggled getting to the boards and boxing out in SU head coach Jim Boeheim’s 2-3 zone, Jackson was the mark

of consistency. The rebounding woes were evident with James Southerland, who was playing the bottom of the zone for a foul-troubled Kris Joseph late in the first half. With the Orange struggling out of the gates once again, Southerland failed to box out Detroit’s Eli Holman on Jason Calliste’s missed 3-point attempt. Holman scooped up the rebound and put in a layup, giving the Titans a 22-18 lead with just more than five minutes to play in the first half. As Southerland’s mistakes piled up, Boeheim could

only shout one thing to him from the sideline. “What,” Boeheim said, “are you doing?” Despite Jackson’s 12 rebounds at the half, Detroit held a 25-23 advantage in that category over the Orange. And it contributed to a threepoint deficit at the half. But one key stretch to open the second half symbolized Jackson’s importance in Syracuse’s win. On Detroit’s fi rst possession, Jackson grabbed the board off Ray McCallum’s miss from beyond the arc. He started a fastbreak to Brandon Triche, who found Jardine for a quick 3-pointer to tie the game at 28-28. On Detroit’s next possession, Jackson turned and looked quickly after Chase Simon’s missed jumper. He found a streaking Jardine, who laid the ball in for SU’s first lead since the 12:29 mark in the first half. “He just kept rebounding and went after every rebound,” Boeheim said. “I talked to Ricky before the season. I think the one thing he can really do to impress people is to rebound the ball. Detroit’s a pretty big, pretty good rebounding team.” And on offense, Jackson used the get-to-theglass mentality when Detroit’s defense keyed on him in its own 2-3 zone. The Titans’ defenders made it difficult to get him the ball, and when the Orange did, they closed on him in the post. So he crashed the boards on SU’s missed shots. There were plenty, with Syracuse shooting 36.4 percent for the game and 21.9 percent in the first half. “My mindset was just to get on the backboards,” Jackson said. “If I can’t score, that has nothing to do with my rebounding.”

After the Titans climbed back within two points at the midway point of the second half, Jardine makes a layup that would fuel a 9-0 run to give the Orange some breathing room. SU held a 53-42 lead after the run, and it held at least a nine-point advantage for the remainder of the game.

Wisconsin receives criticism off 83-point output vs. Indiana By Zach Brown Staff Writer

Earlier this year, former Minnesota head coach Tim Brewster criticized Wisconsin’s Bret Bielema for attempting a two-point conversion when the Badgers already had the game in hand. This week, the Badgers put up 83 points on Indiana, and again the criticism of Bielema came pouring in.

“I didn’t have any problem. I said it after the game, and I feel the same way now. I think it’s our responsibility to stop them, and we didn’t do a very good job of that. And we didn’t take care of the ball. … That’s on us.” Bill Lynch

Indiana head coach

ESPN’s Mark May referred to Wisconsin and its head coach as bullies on the network’s website. Many other members of the media questioned if the Badgers were looking for style points from the pollsters in their hunt for

a Big Ten championship. But one place the disapproval did not come from was the opponent. Indiana’s head coach Bill Lynch put all the blame for Wisconsin’s 83 points on his own team. “I didn’t have any problem,” Lynch said in the Big Ten coaches’ teleconference Tuesday. “I said it after the game, and I feel the same way now. I think it’s our responsibility to stop them, and we didn’t do a very good job of that. And we didn’t take care of the ball. … That’s on us.” The No. 6 Badgers (9-1, 5-1) set all sorts of marks with their 83-20 demolition of the Hoosiers (4-6, 0-6) Saturday. They even did it without running back John Clay, last year’s Big Ten Offensive Player of the Year. It was the most points scored by Wisconsin since 1915. It was also the highest point total for a Big Ten team since Ohio State put up 83 against Iowa in 1950. But even with the obscene numbers, Bielema, Lynch and some of the other Big Ten coaches agreed there was no element of running up the score involved. “If you watched it, you’d see the way it unfolded,” Bielema said. “I put guys out there, in the second half especially, we had our fourth string center snapping to our fifth string quarterback, and so on and so forth, and we were still able to have productive yards.” The game was close through the first quarter. The Badgers were only up 10-7 at the end of the period, and Indiana even knotted the score at 10 to start the second. But after that, Wisconsin took over. Hoo-

siers starting quarterback Ben Chappell left the game with a hip injury near the end of the first half. And by that point, the Badgers had already started a string of 12 straight possessions that resulted in scores. By the end of the third quarter, Wisconsin was up 59-13. At that point, Bielema pulled most of his starters, including running back Montee Ball and quarterback Scott Tolzien, who accounted for six of the Badgers’ touchdowns. But perhaps the biggest part of the controversy occurred halfway through the fourth. The Badgers scored on a 74-yard touchdown pass from backup quarterback Jon Budmayr to freshman receiver Jared Abbrederis on a third-and-six to make the score 76-13. “My backup quarterback has thrown (10) passes, and he could be the starting quarterback in one play this weekend so I would do it again 100 times over,” Bielema said. “It was a broken play if you watch the play. It was something that, just the way it happened at the end, the way the whole game unfolded, it was really good for us and, unfortunately, not great for Indiana.” Although many members of the media have questioned the ethics behind Wisconsin’s 83-point outburst, other Big Ten coaches said it was just an unfortunate situation. Michigan State’s Mike Dantonio, Minnesota’s Jeff Horton and Michigan’s Rich Rodriguez said it wasn’t a matter of running up the points by the Badgers. “If somebody’s truly running it up, then their starters are in all the way to the end,” said Rodriguez, whose Wolverines take on Wisconsin Saturday. “You know, sometimes games just get away from you. (Indiana) had some turnovers and they had some depth issues, their quarterback went out, then all of the sudden things snowballed on them.” Rodriguez also echoed Bielema’s thoughts that backups deserve a chance to run the offense when they get a chance to play instead of just handing the ball off every snap. And even with all the focus on this scoring outburst, Lynch said none of his players, coaches or any member of the Hoosiers program has even mentioned the idea of Wisconsin running up the score. “I’ve been in this long enough, and sometimes games get away from you,” he added. “And it’s really nobody’s responsibility. We didn’t play well enough to make it competitive after the first. … So that’s on us.”

Marcus Lattimore Freshman running back

No. 17 South Carolina Last Week’s Stats: 40 carries, 212 yards, 3 touchdowns

South Carolina rode its freshman running back to the Southeastern Conference East Division championship Saturday with a 36-14 win over Florida. Lattimore tallied career highs in carries, yards and touchdowns and averaged 5.3 yards per run. After falling behind the Gators (6-4, 4-4 SEC) on the opening kickoff, the Gamecocks (7-3, 5-3) scored 29 straight points, 13 of them on Lattimore touchdowns. The freshman gave his team its first lead of the game with a 7-yard run late in the first quarter. He then scored from 21 yards out on the first drive of the second half to extend South Carolina’s lead to 15. His last score, with 2:43 remaining, all but ended any chance of a comeback for Florida. Lattimore entered this year as one of the most highly touted players in the freshman class and has not disappointed. With three games left in the season, he has run for 964 yards and 14 touchdowns and added 281 yards receiving with two touchdown catches. zjbrown@ syr.edu

Early highs, conference lows represent Syracuse’s season By Chris Iseman Staff Writer

Mindy Stanislovaitis stood with tears in her eyes, faced with the reality that her time as a member of the Syracuse volleyball team was over. Even though the Orange missed the playoffs in her final season, it didn’t affect the way Stanislovaitis felt about her time with the team. She felt fortunate to be a part of it all. “I think looking back on it, I’ve been given a gift,” Stanislovaitis said. “I really have to cherish every moment I have.” On Senior Day, Syracuse’s volleyball season came to an end after a 3-1 loss at the hands of Louisville. Stanislovaitis and fellow seniors Hayley Todd and Sarah Hayes didn’t get the chance to go to the playoffs in their final year with the Orange. At times during the year, the thought that this team wouldn’t be making the trip to Pittsburgh for the Big East tournament would have been incomprehensible. There were highs and lows. Huge wins and crushing losses. Stretches of nothing but dominance mixed with stretches of struggles. Syracuse beat some of the conference’s best teams and lost to some of the worst. Any player on the team will attribute that to life in the Big East, where anything is possible. “I always thought we were going to make it,”

said Hayes, a defensive specialist. “It can’t always work. We did everything we could.” At times, everything was enough. Especially during the Orange’s nonconference schedule, when it piled up victories over teams that never had a chance. During one stretch of the season, the Orange went 10 straight matches without losing a single set. Winning was easy. Each victory was just one step closer to Syracuse making the postseason. There was nothing stopping the Orange as it went through the schedule unchallenged. SU may have been beating teams that weren’t up to its level, but to the Syracuse coaches, that schedule was filled with teams that were far from pushovers. “Any given day, if you have a bad day, any of those teams are going to beat you,” assistant coach Carol LaMarche said. “Those were intense games. Any moment, we could’ve lost any of them.” “Any moment” never came. Syracuse won them all. But those moments did come once the Orange opened up its Big East schedule. Suddenly, SU couldn’t make any mistakes during those matches because opponents would capitalize. And the fact that on any given day Syracuse could lose was true more than ever. Throughout the season, LaMarche said the best team on the court for those two hours during a match is going to win. And that team doesn’t

danielle parhizkaran | asst. photo editor The Syracuse Volleyball Team had its best start in program history in 2010 only to be left out of postseason play after limping to a 5-9 finish in conference play. have to have the best record or the best talent. Just the best two hours. Once conference play started, having the best two hours began to be a problem for Syracuse. Winning became increasingly difficult, and losses started to send the Orange to the bottom of the conference standings. “We knew we were going to have to perform every weekend in order to push forward to the tournament,” outsider hitter Todd said. “It didn’t exactly go the way we wanted it to.” Syracuse finished the season with a 5-9 Big East record. Some of the losses during the year made sense. The Orange lost to some of the best conference teams, including Cincinnati, Louis-

ville and Marquette. Other losses didn’t. At the bottom of the conference is DePaul, which beat one Big East team — Syracuse. Through all of that, the highs and the lows, the big wins and the crucial losses, being a part of the team that has the program’s best start to a season isn’t lost on any member of the Orange. Even though the playoffs remained elusive, every player can be proud of the season overall, LaMarche said. That will make it easier to wipe away the tears. “It’s a pretty significant start,” LaMarche said. “They can’t forget that. Although we didn’t make it to the Big East (tournament), it’s not a failure.” cjiseman@syr.edu

SYRACUSE VS. DETROIT 55

HERE’S THE SCOOP

football

Big East lauds SU’s Krautman By Andrew L. John SPORTS EDITOR

dave trotman-wilkins | staff photographer SCOOP JARDINE leads a Syracuse fastbreak during the Orange’s 66-55 win over Detroit Tuesday in the Carrier Dome. The junior guard registered a career-high 27 points in helping to lead No. 10 Syracuse (3-0) over the Titans (0-2) in another poor first half showing for SU.

Behind Jardine’s career-high 27 points, Orange rallies to beat Detroit By Andrew L. John SPORTS EDITOR

ll Scoop Jardine needed was 26 seconds to fi nd his niche. Twenty-six seconds to pull Syracuse out of a halftime deficit. Twenty-six seconds to take over a game in which Detroit appeared to have the Orange on the ropes. Jardine drilled a momentumchanging jumper from behind the arc at the 19:34 mark of the second

half, and the Orange never looked back. “Our offense can click at any time,” Jardine said. Led by Jardine, Syracuse again overcame a slow start with a secondhalf surge, beating Detroit, 66-55, in front of 17,379 at the Carrier Dome on Tuesday in the regional round of the Legends Classic. Jardine scored 17 of his career-high 27 points in the second half, to go along with eight

assists and five steals on the night. Beginning with a simple jumper to start the second half, Jardine guided the Orange on a 17-4 run in under seven minutes, scoring 12 on 5-of-5 shooting during the stretch. Through the fi rst 10:44 of the half, Jardine either assisted or scored on all nine of SU’s field goals. Jardine also converted on a career-high four shots from behind the arc, including two during SU’s

initial stretch to start the second half. “I took what the defense gave me, and the ball just went in for me today,” Jardine said. “There are going to be games where the ball doesn’t go in for me, and my teammates will have to pick me up, and tonight I just picked them up.” Despite a third consecutive double-digit win, SU head coach SEE DETROIT PAGE 14

Jackson dominates glass with 22 rebounds in SU win By Brett LoGiurato ASST. SPORTS EDITOR

Scoop Jardine remembers nights like this back at Neumann-Goretti High School in Philadelphia. The 15-rebound, nine-block nights from a dominant Rick Jackson who toyed with his opponents on the glass.

Tuesday was a flashback to those nights. On a night when Jardine carried the team on his back in the second half and scored 27 points, it was his longtime teammate Jackson who Jardine said was most responsible for leading Syracuse to a 66-55 victory over Detroit in the Carrier Dome.

“Rick is the reason we won the game, if you ask me,” Jardine said. “His commitment, taking what the defense gave him and making the right play every time down the court.” For Jackson, the flashback game came in the form of a dominant night on the glass. Playing all 40 minutes in

SU’s victory, Jackson scored 10 points on 4-of-9 shooting from the field. And on many of those misses, along with the misses from other Syracuse players, Jackson cleaned up. He had an eye-popping 22 rebounds — 14 defensive and eight offensive. On a night when the Orange held

When preseason camp began, Ross Krautman was trying to find his place within the Syracuse football program. Ten games into his freshman season, the walk-on is the one who secured the Orange’s first winning season since 2001. Krautman was named the Big East’s Special Teams Player of the Week Monday after his game-winning field goal against Rutgers sealed up Saturday’s victory. Krautman converted the 24-yarder with 1:07 left to play, giving SU a 13-10 victory and allowing the Orange to become bowl eligible for the first time since 2004. This marks the fourth time in a row Krautman has been named to the Big East honor roll. “We expect that from Ross,” Syracuse head coach Doug Marrone said after the win Saturday. “He has been playing that way all year, so I don’t even think about that. He has been doing it for us all year, credit to him, he has been doing a nice job.” Against the Scarlet Knights, Krautman nailed two field goals, including a career-long 48-yarder in the third quarter. He has converted on 15-of-16 field goals on the year and has made 13 straight dating back to Sept. 11 against Washington. Krautman is the most accurate kicker in the Big East and third in the country among those with at least 14 attempts, converting at an impressive 93.8 percent clip. He’s also converted on 26-of-27 extra point attempts. With two regular season games left to play, there’s no longer any question about Krautman’s place on the team. Both he and senior punter Rob Long appear to have a good chance of earning first-team all-conference honors at season’s end. And going back to Saturday’s gamewinner, Krautman is quickly becoming Syracuse’s clutch performer. “I just went up to him and told him, SEE KRAUTMAN PAGE 14
