Energy researchers dig for solutions

VOL. 99 ISSUE 97

SINCE 1916

Slacklining in his spare time

SAM BEARD | @SAMBEARD_DE

Alternatives to non-renewable energy sources are popular, but not perfect. With the ever-increasing regulations put on energy suppliers, coal, gas and oil companies are turning to academics for help in figuring out how to continue extraction operations while staying in compliance with emission restrictions. Representatives from fossil fuel and energy companies, faculty and students will discuss the future of energy research and education at the Regional Energy Forum, from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. Friday at the Dunn-Richmond Economic Development Center. Since 2008, American solar panel installations have increased seventeenfold, according to the U.S. Office of Energy. Even with the rise of solar panels and windmills, some energy experts say it is too soon to put all the eggs in the renewable-energy basket. Tomasz Wiltowski, director of the Advanced Coal and Energy Research Center, said academia and business have the same interest in boosting efficiency of fossil fuel usage and researching how industry can comply with governmental regulations to continue extraction operations. “This energy forum can help us collaborate more closely. This we call an industry-academia alliance,” Wiltowski said. “Having both parties at this meeting will give the opportunity for everyone to talk and present their concerns, ideas, concepts and needs.” He said working with corporations is good for the university because it will generate more funds for faculty, research and student-workers. Wiltowski said the university is not doing much research on renewable energy because outside funds for research, such as grants from corporations or governmental initiatives, are virtually non-existent. Peter Schuburt, director of Indiana’s Richard G. Lugar Center for Renewable Energy, said Friday’s forum will offer a chance for the energy centers to put their forces together in an effort to get grants from the federal government. He said the use of renewables reduces environmental impact, stimulates the local economy and lessens America’s dependence on foreign sources. “By using more renewables, we’re reducing our impact on the climate, as well as land and water pollution, which are associated with fossil fuel extraction and consumption,” he said.

Lennon, who is a rental cage manager for Outdoor Pursuits, said he was doing this to bring attention to Outdoor Pursuits. “When people walk by they kind of turn their heads,” he said. “Then we can lure them in and tell them about all the great things we’re doing.” He said the the activity could calm the mind for some. “It’s very therapeutic,” Lennon said. “When you’re on the line, it takes so much focus that whatever else is going on in your life, you can’t really focus on any of that or else your’e going to fall over.” Left: Cody Lennonbalances on the slackline Wednesday. He said students sometimes are not be aware of the services offered at the Recreation Center. “We have all this super cool stuff going on at the Rec Center,” Lennon said. He said slacklining is mostly for enjoyment. “The point of Slacklining is there is no point,” he said. “You’re kind of just doing it.” J ORDAN D UNCAN @jordanduncanDE

Americans see Hillary Clinton, Jeb Bush as presidential material, Bloomberg poll finds JENNIFER EPSTEIN | BLOOMBERG

When it comes to Americans envisioning a 2016 presidential candidate moving into the White House, Hillary Clinton has the edge. Nearly half of U.S. adults say they have a “realistic vision”

@DAILYEGYPTIAN

of Clinton being president, outpacing any of the seven Democratic and Republican candidates tested on the question, according to a new Bloomberg Politics national poll. Jeb Bush fares best among the Republicans with 40 percent, compared to Clinton’s 47 percent, and Donald

Trump fares worst with 29 percent. Fifty-two percent say they can’t see Clinton as president and 57 percent say the same about Bush — lower than the 69 percent who say they can’t see Trump taking the job. In a race where political outsiders seem to grow stronger every week, this is one area where

experience seems to be a plus: Clinton is a former first lady, senator, and secretary of state; Bush is a former Florida governor and the son and brother of expresidents; and the billionaire Trump is making his first foray into electoral politics. Please see POLL | 4

COAL CONTINUED FROM

Wiltowski said SIU’s center, previously called the Coal Research Center, has not reached the same conclusion. “When I have a piece a coal in my hand, there is good stuff in there and there is bad stuff as well. Bad in terms of it being hazardous or toxic or whatever, but there’s good that I can utilize — like the hydrocarbons,” Wiltowski said. He said the production of solar panels releases more toxic chemicals into the environment than mining for coal. “I’m not against solar, I’m not against wind. But I’m against being unreal,” Wiltowski said. “OK, you have a solar panel and it’s 11 p.m. What do you do?” He supports a 20-year transition to renewable sources, but said it is not realistic to expect an overnight change. Schuburt said he does not support the idea that fossil fuel extraction should continue until supplies run out, because use is not sustainable long-term. Wiltowski said the university can expect to see a Regional Energy Forum every six weeks or so, with the next expected to take place in November.

Two Al-Jazeera journalists freed in Egypt after presidential pardon POL O GRADAIGH AND KHAIRY HUSSEIN dpa

Two Al-Jazeera journalists were released from prison on Wednesday following a pardon from Egyptian President Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi, in a case that drew worldwide condemnation. Canadian-Egyptian Al-Jazeera journalist Mohammed Fahmy and the Qatari network’s Egyptian producer Baher Mohammed were among 100 prisoners — including pro-democracy activists — who were pardoned, according to a presidential statement. “Fahmy is now at home. His colleague Baher Mohammed has also left the prison accompanied by his family,” Fahmy’s wife, Marwa Omara, told dpa.

The pardons, marking the Islamic holiday of Eid al-Adha, are the first to include prominent figures caught up in Egypt’s crackdown on dissent since el-Sissi, then head of the armed forces, ousted Islamist president Mohammed Morsi two years ago. They were issued ahead of el-Sissi’s visit to New York to attend the U.N. General Assembly meetings. Fahmy, Mohammed and Australian journalist Peter Greste were arrested in late 2013 and charged with publishing false news and collaborating with Morsi’s Muslim Brotherhood, which has been banned as a terrorist organization. They were sentenced to seven years imprisonment on those

charges in an initial trial last year. Observers at the trial said no concrete evidence in support of the allegations had been heard in court sessions open to the press. The convictions were overturned on appeal and the journalists were jailed for three years after a retrial that concluded last month. Greste was released and deported on el-Sissi’s orders in February before the retrial started. Fahmy gave up his Egyptian citizenship in order to qualify for deportation like Greste, saying a senior security official had urged him to do so to save the country embarrassment, but was not released. Human rights organizations and

press freedom groups had called for the release of the journalists. The case clearly embarrassed Egyptian authorities, with el-Sissi publicly saying that it would have been better if the journalists had been deported instead of being put on trial. Interior Ministry spokesman Abu Bakr Abdul Kareem said the other prisoners, including 16 women, will be released “within hours.” The presidency said the pardons came “in the framework of the president’s initiative to release groups of young people, which he launched in December last year.” Thousands of people, mainly suspected Islamists but also including young democracy activists, have

been jailed since Morsi’s toppling in the wake of mass protests against his increasingly unpopular rule. Most have been accused of illegal demonstrations, membership of illegal organizations, or participation in riots and deadly attacks on security forces. According to data compiled by activists from the Egyptian Center for Economic and Social Rights, some 41,000 people were detained or prosecuted between the fall of Morsi and May 2014. Among those to be freed are two prominent young female activists, Sanaa Seif and Yara Salam, who were jailed last year under a law that effectively bans protests without prior police approval.

Sending sounds of solidarity to the silenced

Marissa Novel | @_MarissaNovel Protestors participate in a noise demonstration Wednesday outside Menard Correctional Center in Chester. Demonstrators made loud noises with items including pots, buckets, drum sticks and blow horns to reach the prisoners inside. On Wednesday, the inmates began their second hunger strike in two years. The strike is protesting the abuse of the prison’s Administrative Detention policy, which is a punishment forcing the incarcerated into isolation. “We hear you,” shouted prisoners from inside the penitentiary. “No more [Administrative Detention].” Cody Roach, an SIU alumnus from Carbondale, said he participated in two noise demonstrations in January of 2014 in solidarity with the prisoners’ first hunger strike. Roach said he was able to hear the yells of the inmates during the second demonstration, which about 30 people attended. “It clearly made an impact on people who weren’t supposed to be reachable,” he said.

POLL CONTINUED FROM

1

Though Trump leads the Republican field in horse-race polling, he’s the only candidate tested for this question who doesn’t get the support of a majority of members of his or her own party. Fortyfive percent of Republicans say they have a realistic vision of Trump as president and 53 percent say they don’t. Just 13 percent of Democrats and 30 percent of independents can see him in the job. Clinton’s overall numbers benefit from strong enthusiasm among Democrats: 74 percent who identify with the party say they have a realistic vision of Clinton as president. Twenty-three percent of Republicans and 33 percent of independents say the same. In a sign of how seriously Wall Street takes Clinton’s candidacy, pharmaceutical and biotech stocks dropped earlier this week as her campaign signaled that she would be offering policy proposals that would force the industry to lower prices, increase spending on research, and give up tens of billions of dollars of tax breaks. When it comes to Bush, Republicans are closely divided on the question.

Fifty-three percent say they can see him as president and 46 percent say they don’t. Three in 10 Democrats say they can, while two thirds say they can’t. Thirty-four percent say they can see Bernie Sanders, a Vermont socialist who serves in the Senate as an independent, being commander-in-chief, including 53 percent of Democrats and just 14 percent of Republicans. Independents are less confident in Sanders’ candidacy than in Clinton’s by this metric, with 27 percent saying they have a realistic vision of Sanders making it to the White House. Regarding other Republican candidates, about a third of respondents say they can envision former HewlettPackard CEO Carly Fiorina and retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson as president, while three in 10 could picture freshman Florida Sen. Marco Rubio on the job. The poll was conducted for Bloomberg Politics by the Iowa-based Selzer & Co. from Sept. 18-21 and is based on interviews with 1,001 U.S. adults. The margin of error is plus or minus 3.1 percentage points on the full sample and higher among subgroups.

‘Black Mass’ guns down any chance of being a classic JACOB PIERCE |@JACOBPIERCE1_DE

Sometimes, it is better to forego the truth to tell an entertaining story. “Black Mass,” directed by Scott Cooper and starring Johnny Depp and Joel Edgerton fails where other James “Whitey” Bulger adaptations, like “The Departed,”succeed. Certain movies miss the complexity needed for a compelling film, but can still create successful surfacelevel entertainment. “Black Mass” exemplifies this idea. The film hits the base-level expectations of a gangster movie. There is gun play, illegal activities and tough guys, which is normal for a film like

this. But it does not reach the levels of character study in great crime films like “Goodfellas” or “The Departed.” No character in “Black Mass” goes beyond being one dimensional. Bulger comes off static and flat even though he is a monster who kills with no mercy or motivation. A biopic needs to show the development of a character’s personality. This movie does not, so Bulger becomes a stereotypical ruthless killer. One huge reason behind this is a lack of direction; the movie cannot choose who it wants to follow. “Black Mass” starts with the framing device of a side character telling the entire story. This seems to go away pretty quickly and the direction

switches to Bulger’s tale. The movie switches back and forth so frequently that no character develops. Johnny Depp’s performance of Bulger is the best thing about the movie. While it does not develop this character very well, Depp inhabits the crime boss as close as he can. He becomes “Whitey,” one of the most feared gangsters around. The actor fills you with terror in a way only the real gangster could, and he adds the little character motivation Bulger gets in the film.

But the increase was in line with the 59 percent lift for CNN’s audience of 920,000 viewers. Both networks typically see their audiences grow during live coverage of major news events. Fox News had the most viewers with 1.2 million, down 12 percent from the previous fourweek average but in line with what it typically draws in those hours with regular programming.

While Williams did not make MSNBC competitive with its cable news rivals (his appearance was promoted on the air only a few hours before he went on), the ratings grew enough to show that viewers are not turned off by his return after the suspension. Williams was back at the MSNBC anchor desk on Wednesday for more coverage of Pope Francis’ visit.

Salukis raise funds to blackout cancer SEAN CARLEY | @SCARLEYDE

This weekend the SIU football team challenges No. 10 Liberty Flames and the second leading cause of death in the U.S. — cancer. Saturday’s matchup marks the fifth annual Salukis Blackout Cancer game, benefitting the Southern Illinois Healthcare Cancer Institute. Donors bid on customized black jerseys to be worn by players Saturday. The jerseys are given to donors on the field after the game. This year, the blackout game has raised more than $29,000. More than $160,000 has been raised in the previous four years. The top 80 bidders have names placed on the jerseys, and athletes’ families often bid. This year, eight players’ families and former players Jayson Dimanche and Kenneth Boatright contributed. Sophomore fullback Hans Carmien’s family bid on a jersey this year in honor of his grandfather who died of lymphoma in 2002. “It’ll certainly feel different having his name on the back of the jersey,” he said. “This game will certainly be more memorable.” Coach Dale Lennon, who lost his father to cancer, knows how much this game means to the community. “Everyone has been affected by cancer,” he said. “I’ll do whatever I can to support the cause. If we can raise some money playing a football game to support cancer research, then let’s do it.” Former Saluki safety Mike McElroy started the event in 2011. He said the idea was inspired by a similar fundraiser at Lowell High School in Michigan, where he attended. “[The football team] had pink jerseys

with the names on the back, and it was a huge community event and a huge success,” he said. “So I thought it was a good idea to bring to the collegiate level.” McElroy said a broken ankle his senior year left him wondering if he made an impression in southern Illinois. “I started looking into what this would look like and how it would come together, and just saw the impact I think it could have on the community,” he said. McElroy said the original fundraiser was not easy to set up. Lennon had to help with paperwork to obtain NCAA approval. The NCAA regulates what types and modes of fundraising can be done at collegiate games. Lennon said the university was originally granted a one-year clearance from the NCAA for the event, and would have to apply again every year before annual clearance was granted. SIH used part of the funds raised to build a comprehensive cancer institute in Carterville, the first of its kind in southern Illinois. Tanna Morgan, SIH director of funds management, said with the institute completed, all funds raised from the blackout game now go to patient care. “Sometimes people get treatment and can’t go home or need gas cards, so all these funds go back towards the patients at the cancer center,” she said. The cancer center has brought services closer to the southern Illinois community. “I actually have been talking to a lady who gets very emotional and tells me the cancer center saved her life,” Morgan said. “She had breast cancer and was able to do all her chemotherapy and everything here. She didn’t have to go to St. Louis and was able to stay close to home.”

Athletic director Tommy Bell said he is happy with the event. “We love our affiliation with SIH and

that whole initiative and what it brings to southern Illinois, so we’re excited to help out,” Bell said.

Hall of Fame catcher Yogi Berra dies at 90 RICK HUMMEL | ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH

Lawrence Peter “Yogi” Berra, a native St. Louisan and Hall of Fame catcher who died Tuesday of natural causes at the age of 90, was known by many for such malaprops as “90 percent of the game is half-mental.” Or, in referring to a once-popular restaurant, “Nobody goes there any more. It’s too crowded.” But some of the Yogi-isms continue to ring true, like “It ain’t over till it’s over.” What shouldn’t be overshadowed, though, is that Berra had a World Series ring for every finger. He played in 14 World Series, including a record 10 world championship teams with the Yankees, and he managed in two other World Series, one each with the Yankees and New York Mets. Berra, who had 358 regularseason home runs, hit 12 homers in 14 World Series. But he most famously was pictured in a World Series when he jumped into the arms of pitcher Don Larsen after the latter had pitched the only World Series perfect game in 1956, with Berra catching. As a player, coach and manager, Berra was in 21 World

Series. A three-time American League Most Valuable Player, Berra’s playing career spanned from 1946-65 and he was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1972. Yogi grew up on Elizabeth

Avenue on “The Hill,” then and now a primarily Italian neighborhood in St. Louis. His parents were Italian immigrants Pietro and Paolina Berra, with his father arriving at Ellis Island in 1909 at the age 23, knowing

nothing about baseball. He would later find out, of course. Across the street lived Joe Garagiola, another future major league catcher who actually played in his first World Series, at age 20 for the 1946 World Series

champion Cardinals, one year ahead of Berra’s first World Series championship with the Yankees. Both had attended South Side Catholic although Berra quit school after the eighth grade. As Berra starred in American Legion baseball in St. Louis, he received his nickname from friend Bobby Hofman, another future big leaguer, who said Berra resembled a Hindu yogi whenever he sat with arms and legs crossed waiting to bat or while looking sad after a defeat. In 1942, the Cardinals chose to sign Garagiola over Berra. Cardinals executive Branch Rickey, knowing he was soon to leave St. Louis to take over the operation of the Brooklyn Dodgers, held off, wanting to sign Berra for the Dodgers. The Yankees, however, signed Berra for the same $500 bonus the Cardinals offered Garagiola. The Yankees assigned Berra to Norfolk of the Class B Piedmont League and Berra was credited with driving in 23 runs during one doubleheader. Following his World War II Naval service — Berra served as a gunner’s mate on the U.S.S. Bayfield during the D-Day invasion — he played minor league ball with the Newark Bears before being called up for seven games by the Yankees in 1946.
