UNICEF:
Charity soccer tournament raises money By Mihyar Abdelgalil Daily staff writer A charity soccer tournament organized by Iowa State’s African Students Association will begin Saturday morning at 9 a.m. The deadline for students to register for the tournament is midnight Wednesday. The funds generated by the tournament will go to UNICEF. “There is famine going on in Somalia and we thought we might be able to change things a little bit by having a fundraiser,” said Kabbod Alkhalil, president of the club. Those interested in registering for the tournament should email Kabbod@iastate.edu, and individuals who wish to participate will be assigned to a random team. Teams will consist of 10 players and there will be a registration fee of $30. Mahmoud Hassan, member of African Students Association, said, “The tournament is actually generating money and giving it to Somalia.”
Cost of ISU president search committee released to public Graphic: Kelsey Kremer/ Iowa State Daily
By Paige.Godden @iowastatedaily.com The search for the new Iowa State President cost more than $133,000. A 108 page document, full of receipts from hotel stays and travel expenses, from Parker Executive Search, was released to the Daily through the Board of Regents on Tuesday. The document indicates that almost $7,000 was spent on advertising, close to $9,000 on consultant travel, $8,400 on candidate travel and $13,700 was spent on interview expense. Another $10,600 was spent on hotel rooms and parking from when the search committee interviewed applicants in Minneapolis.

Iowa caucus date secured
GSB:
GOP votes to keep Jan. 3 date
‘Green roof’ project needs green money By Charles O’Brien Daily staff writer GSB was introduced to a bill this week which is asking for $40,000 in funding for a “green roof” on the Memorial Union. The amount will not cover the entire cost of the roof. The “green roof,” if funded, will be placed on the north side of the Multicultural Center of the Memorial Union. The $40,000 would also go towards restoring the Fountain of the Four Seasons in front of the Union to working condition. This bill will be voted on at the Oct. 26 meeting. At next week’s GSB meeting, a Pink Out for Breast Cancer Awareness will take place with all of the senators participating.

Postal Service
Memorial Union branch considered for closure By Paige.Godden @iowastatedaily.com The Memorial Union post office has received an official proposal to close. According to the proposal, “The Postal Service is proposing to close the Memorial Union Station, IA and provide delivery and retail services by independent post offices under the administrative responsibility of the Ames Post Office, located two miles away.” It continues on saying that the office is being studied for a possible closing or consolidation due to several alternative locations that can
provide the sale of stamps and mailing of most package items. The proposal lists advantages that would come from the proposal, including stamps by mail order, customers opting for carrier service will have 24 hour access to their mail. The proposal saves time and energy for customers who drive to the post office to pick up mail. Some of the disadvantages include the loss of a retail outlet and a manager position, potential of some people having to travel additional dis-

Smith said Parker Search Executives charged $90,000 for their services as well as travel costs, the costs of interviewing candidates, and the costs to bring candidates to campus. “This was my first time partaking in a search committee... .

have is to University of Iowa’s search with costs an excess of $300,000,” Smith said. Steven Freeman, president of the Faculty Senate and a member of the search committee, said he is not surprised by the cost. “Executive level searches are expensive — but the goal is to find the best candidate to lead the university for the next decade,” according to Freeman. “Assuming that President Leath will be successful, this was money well spent.” Dakota Hoben, president of the Government of the Student Body and a also member of the search committee, said he was not sure how much presidential searches cost on average, but he also was not surprised by the number. “When seeing the total that
ISU spent, I was not surprised by the amount. I fully understood that these searches are not cheap and that we went to great lengths to keep costs down,” Hoben said. “This was the reason we did interviews in Minneapolis as opposed to Des Moines.” Labh Hira, dean of the College of Business and cochairman of the search committee, said, “I have never been involved in such a search before. So I did not know what to expect. But given the complexity of the search and level of the position, it appears quite reasonable.” Comparatively, the University of Iowa spent $314,000 choosing Sally Mason in 2007. The Iowa Board of Regents has previously stated that Leath will be reimbursed for moving expenses, as well.

issues induced by Florida, however, there may not be enough time between Iowa and Nevada, forcing New Hampshire to hold its primaries sometime in December. “My guess is that [Bill Gardner, New Hampshire secretary of state, will] have the New Hampshire primary be a week after caucus,” said Steffen Schmidt, ISU professor of political science.
The question then arises, will Iowa change their date yet again if New Hampshire decides to bring the voting to the end of 2011? The general feeling of the GOP of Iowa is that while changing the date is always an option, it is better for the voting population to have a set date, disregarding if Iowa is the first in the nation. David Peterson, associ-
ate professor of political sciences, said Iowa confirming its caucus date was a necessary decision. “Given the logistics of organizing the caucus, the party couldn’t wait any longer to make a decision,” according to Peterson. Voter turnout has been a major cause of worry with caucuses and primaries being held as early as December 2011.
tered at their universities, but when at home there is sometimes less incentive to get out and vote. When a similar situation occurred with scheduling in 2008, however, there was a record number of voting, nearing 360,000 votes counted in Iowa.

Many people are worried that if voting is conducted so close to the holiday, people will not be available to vote, especially when considering college students who will be away from their universities on winter break. Not only are students regis-
tances, and a change in mailing addresses. According to the proposal, the Postal Service would save $257,079 over the next ten years. “Taking all available information into consideration, the Postal Service has determined that the advantages outweigh the disadvantages and this proposal is warranted,” according to the proposal. Jared Knight, vice president of the student body, said if the post office closes, it will be disappointing. “At this point there isn’t much we can do. The postmaster has X dollars they need to cut, and they’ve clearly determined that the convenience for students, faculty and staff is less valuable than the money saved,” Knight said. Jacob Swanson, an Inter-Residence Hall Association member and a GSB senaGgetting INbe tor, said the post office mustKnot R Y O a lot of use.

Editorial
A farewell to all people for Oct. 21 We, the Iowa State Daily Editorial Board, are taking this opportunity to wish all our readers a fond farewell. Since the world is scheduled to end tomorrow, on Oct. 21, 2011, we write this column in anticipation of the impending doom that awaits humanity. Most of you likely remember the May predictions earlier this year from Harold Camping. While the May 21 Rapture date was apparently only a “spiritual” rapture, this time the end of the world is for real (his very first prediction of a 1994 rapture seems to have been wrong. Maybe he got it right the second time around...) And unless you were saved by the first deadline, it looks like you are out of luck now. Harold Camping’s website quotes Revelation 3:7, noting that “once the door ... is shut on Judgement Day [May 21, 2011], there is no more salvation possible on earth.” Since there’s no way for the millions of non-Christians around the globe to get to heaven, (or even those who became Christians after May) this means that there’s only one viable thing for the hell-bound to do: party like it’s the end of the world. (Or, you know, you could spend your final hours with family and friends. Both are viable options for those that won’t be saved.) But the Editorial Board couldn’t leave the world without paying some respects. So we say our goodbyes to the students of Iowa State University, to some of our favorite online commenters, such as Steve Gregg and Rob Stone. Goodbye to our editors, writers, photographers and web designers. Thank you to all the professors that have taught us in these halls. It’s unfortunate that we will never be able to utilize that 4-year degree we were working towards in a future career that will never exist. Despite the assumption that we are all doomed, perhaps there is at least some silver lining to all of this: If the world collapses into flaming chaos on Friday, we probably won’t have to suffer through a crushing defeat by Texas A&M in Saturday’s Homecoming game. On the other hand, our Saturday will be a lot less exciting in hell than out in the tailgating lots. Harold Camping arrived at his apocalyptic prediction through a lot of fancy number crunching, but on the off-chance that he forgot to carry a ten when he was calculating the end of days, the Iowa State Daily Editorial Board bids you a good day, and will hopefully continue publication as normal tomorrow. And if you find that you are still alive on the 21st, then Harold Camping was probably wrong again, and we can all pretend to be surprised. Editorial Board

Politics
Iowa Caucus, no big deal By Jacob.Witte @iowastatedaily.com
I
File photo: Iowa State Daily President Barack Obama gives a passionate speech to his loyal supporters and major news agencies from accross the country after winning Democratic Iowa. Columnist Witte holds the Iowa caucuses have lost their integrity and gained a negative clout. After 40 years as “First in the Nation,” Iowa should give up this claim to other, more moderate states
n the last few weeks the political field has erupted with several states wanting to change the dates of their caucuses and primaries. The states involved are mainly Nevada, New Hampshire and, yours truly, Iowa. All of the commotion is about which state is going to be ‘First in the Nation’ to set the tone for the 2012 GOP nomination bid. Other states want to upend Iowa, who has had the first national electoral event of the nomination process since 1972, to which I say, let them. Iowa has had the reign of ‘First in the Nation’ for 40 years now once this caucus occurs in a few months, which is a long time in the field of politics. Perhaps it is time for Iowa to give this up and let other states have a chance to have the first major decision in the country for who should be president. The main reason why Iowa should not be the first voice this time around is because of the voting base that will be casting their ballots in February. Because this will be a GOP Caucus in 2012, conservative candidates will clearly be favorites of voters. And, because Iowa tends to be even more right-leaning than many other parts of the country due to the vast rural population, this could have negative implications on the caucus. And let’s be honest folks, the people that will be voting in February (or January) for the next Republican Presidential Candidate are the same voters who chose not to retain three Supreme Court Justices because of the unanimous 2009 decision to legalize same sex marriage. These are also the same voters who voted in a slew of Tea Party candidates into the Iowa Statehouse, politicians who have tried to create laws that would let business owners discriminate on religious beliefs and to ban abortion, both being completely and abhorrently unconstitutional. These instances point to a situation in which the most far-right-leaning candidates like Michele Bachmann, Rick Perry and Rick Santorum will have more sway and garner more political capital than the more moderate, electable candidates like Mitt Romney, Jon Huntsman and Newt Gingrich. This is damaging to the image of Iowa more than anything else; it makes our state look like a bunch of fringe voters who want only the most extreme candidates for president. One group of people who this shake-up of caucuses does not affect is the politicians themselves. We have in this GOP field a group of politicians who pander to anyone who will cast them a vote. Whether they are lining up in droves at the Iowa State Fair eating [insert heart-stopping food-on-a-stick here] or telling people anything they want to hear on the stand at the fair (“Corporations are people too, my friend,” uttered by Mitt Romney), it is clear to see that this troupe of Republicans have little real political skill. None of them, it seems, is so desperate to get a vote as Michele Bachmann, who paid out nearly $180,000 at the Ames Straw Poll for people to vote for her. She also claims that, although she moved away from Iowa at the young age of 13, “everything I needed to know, I learned in Iowa”. Really, Michele? Is this perhaps why your political ideology is tempered with selfishness and vanity? I digress. I think that it is about time that Iowa gives up its title of ‘First in the Nation’ and let another state have it for a while. Until the conservative Right in this state becomes more moderate and less reactionary, Iowa will continue to be viewed in a negative light in terms of political awareness. And because other states, this year more than others, are clamoring to get their caucus and primary dates in before Iowa, we should just let them.

Religion
Live based on own beliefs Religion and morality are not necessarily equivalent
R
eligion of any kind is not evil. Billions of people around the world believe in a god or gods in one way or another. The feeling of belonging, friendship, peace, love, fear, etc., that one gets while practicing a religion has been a common experience shared by billions since ancient times. There are hundreds of different religions spread around the world today, encompassing different sects of similar beliefs, each distinct from another in some way. However, when religion and government collide, problems can arise. Conflicts between religion and government, and between different religions, have spawned countless wars over the centuries. It is one of the reasons that America was first colonized (by refugees from England looking for religious freedom). It is the reason that our Founding Fathers wrote freedom of religion into the Constitution in the First Amendment, because they understood people’s need to be free in their own personal beliefs. For whatever reason, it seems as though we have lost the distinction between religion and government. Look no further than the candidates for the Republican nomination for president. Several candidates (Bachmann, Cain, Santorum) said they decided to run after praying over it, as though God himself endorsed their campaigns. Mitt Romney’s Mormonism has been discussed as though it is an issue that will affect policy if he gets elected. Many people argue against abortion and gay marriage on the basis of their religious beliefs. These people need to stop for a moment and think. A lot of these issues boil down to moral issues (e.g., abortion and gay marriage),
By Craig.Long @iowastatedaily.com and people simply defer to their religion in these situations. Don’t get me wrong, religion (or absence of) can be a very important factor in developing one’s moral compass. However, to simply pass one’s religious beliefs as an undeniable truth is to do a disservice to one’s self and to harm the freedom of others around them. If you believe that gay marriage and abortion are wrong, it is highly unlikely that you have the same religious beliefs as a woman who has had an abortion or married someone of the same sex. Thus, to try to institutionalize those religious beliefs is to impose your religion on them. By doing so, you limit one of the original, basic rights guaranteed to all Americans. And you draw closer to a system of laws based on religion (in this country, ostensibly it would be the Bible). Isn’t that one of the reasons many Americans oppose Islam, especially in countries where it is the predominant religion? It seems as though many Christians believe that Sharia Law (drawn from the Quran and the teachings of Muhammad) is bad, yet they continue to push for policy based on what they learned in the Bible. Pot, meet kettle. The worst part about those who use religion as a substitute for their own moral sensibilities is that they are simply using someone else’s decisions on what should and shouldn’t be allowed. The Bible, which some use to form their religious beliefs, contains much more than
many people know. It contains things which would downright shock us if they were actually followed. For instance, any woman on this campus who has had premarital sex would be stoned to death for it (Deuteronomy 22:20-21). All female professors on this campus would be immediately removed from their positions, according to Timothy 2:11-12. These are just two examples, but many like them exist right there in black and white. Somewhere along the way, people realized that those two edicts were ridiculous. They decided to stop following them, which I for one am thankful. By using what others have done without questioning it yourself, you simply accept their logic as superior to your own. Even the Bible in its whole form was subject to the censorship of persons other than its authors. The Roman Catholic church omitted entire books of the Bible as they did not fit with the beliefs of the church at the time. Are those original texts from the Bible any less important or correct than what the church included? So when it comes to social issues, political candidates and your own moral compass, please, for the love of God, use your own judgment. Try and figure out reasons other than your religious beliefs (be it Christian, Islam, or any other) as to why you believe that a gay couple should be denied the freedom to marry and all the governmentally provided benefits that go with it. Decide who should be president based on their track record of governance and their platform, not how Christian or Mormon they are. Live based on your own beliefs, not on what someone hundreds of years ago decided you should believe, and allow others to do the same.

Lockout:
NBA talks will resume Thursday NEW YORK — NBA owners and players ended negotiations Wednesday after more than eight hours. Federal mediator George Cohen said the two sides would resume bargaining Thursday afternoon. Owners had to leave to attend board of governors meetings Wednesday evening through midday Thursday. “The discussions have been direct and constructive, and as far as we are concerned, we are here to continue to help assist the parties to endeavor to reach an agreement,” Cohen said. The two sides met for more than 24 hours in a 32-hour span. Without a deal this week, Commissioner David Stern might have to decide when a next round of cancellations would be necessary. The season was supposed to begin Nov. 1, but all games through Nov. 14 have been scrapped, costing players about $170 million in salaries. Cohen said players and owners met in a variety of settings during mediation, sometimes in subcommittees, other times in groups as large as 40 people. “Everyone is extremely focused on the core issues, the difficult issues that confront them,” he said.

NFL:
Gov. to push stadium site for Vikings ST. PAUL, Minn. — Gov. Mark Dayton said Wednesday he’s ready to throw his political weight behind a new, publicly subsidized football stadium that would be built on a site preferred by the Minnesota Vikings. Following three days of meetings with various stadium stakeholders, including Vikings owner Zygi Wilf, Dayton said that within the next three weeks he plans to unveil a detailed proposal tied to the Ramsey County site — including how to raise the state’s $300 million share toward a project estimated at $1.1 billion. The Democratic governor did not reveal if he has a preference between several financing options already floated including new state sales taxes, fees on gamerelated activities, tax revenue from an expansion of gambling, or something else. Once a proposal is in hand, Dayton said he’d call a special legislative session before the end of November, allowing lawmakers to vote on the plan. But he still must convince skeptical Republican legislative leaders, who couldn’t block him from calling a session but whose support would be crucial to passing any stadium bill. “I think there’s a way to keep the Vikings in Minnesota without the extraordinary step of a special session,” said House Majority Leader Matt Dean, R-Dellwood. He didn’t say what those steps could be, but noted that special sessions have typically been reserved for responding to emergencies like natural disasters. The Associated Press

With more eyes locking in on missteps and infractions in college athletics, social media use by student-athletes is quickly becoming a new area of focus. More than 1,000 schools make up the NCAA and more than 430,000 student-athletes fill its schools’ teams across the country each year. With those numbers, the NCAA does not attempt to completely monitor social media, instead leaving the decisions on rules up to each individual school. “There are a lot of different views,” said Ronnie Ramos, NCAA managing director of digital communications. “Some schools think it’s a great opportunity to show their athletes how to mature, and others don’t want the distraction.” One team that does not care for the use of social media is the Miami football team, which banned the use of Twitter for its players. At Iowa State, no such bans are put on student-athletes from any team. Many of the more than 400 student-athletes at Iowa State regularly use the popular social media outlets Facebook and Twitter, and the athletic department views the use as a valuable asset to communicate with fans. “I think it’s another way for our student-athletes and our coaches to engage with the fans and that’s a positive,” said Associate Athletic Director Steve Malchow. “Any engagement you can get — whether it’s signing autographs after a game, coming to a family fun day or interacting with them via social media — I think is a positive.” As scandals and investigations become more prevalent in college athletics, social media use has become more closely monitored and more broadly talked about. Ramos said the only regulations the NCAA currently has are in regards to contact between coaches and prospective student-athletes. The rules were put into place to keep recruits from being inundated with messages, but Ramos said the missteps are often times minor. “We do some monitoring, but the schools selfreport. Those are secondary violations that do happen,” Ramos said. “We are in the process of evaluating our rules for the long-term, but it’s really gotten to the point where it’s self-policing.” The NCAA does allow communication between coaches and recruits via Facebook so long as the messages are one-on-one, and Ramos said there are not very many restrictive rules. While some athletic departments place specific rules on student-athletes, the department at Iowa State puts less emphasis on restrictions and more on teaching athletes how to use the popular medium. “We spend more of our time in education than we do in punitive damages and trying to muzzle,” Malchow said. “We think it’s more advantageous to encourage them to do the right thing because you can only protect people so long. At some point you have to grow up, that’s what going to college is about.”

Malchow said that rather than rules, the athletic department emphasizes some basic guidelines for student-athletes and has a session dedicated to social media during their annual life skills program. Coaches also get the message across by talking with their teams about the issues and citing specific examples when they occur. Malchow added that coaches have the ability to set rules or restrictions of their own if issues arise. “It definitely would be a coach’s decision,” Malchow said. “If a coach felt like he or she was having problems with their team or it was a distraction, they certainly have the right to implement a team rule.” ISU football coach Paul Rhoads allows his players to use social media, but warns them of the consequences. “I trust the kids that I have in this program and the way we run our program that they’ll have the maturity and the responsibility to do things right,” Rhoads said. “I don’t tell them what to do and what not to do, but I hold the carrot in front of them that if they ever get out of line they could lose those
Volleyball
privileges.” For one ISU football player, the threat of losing that privilege is very real. “I saw they put one of my tweets in the paper one day, and I started to become more aware and more careful,” said Jacques Washington, redshirt sophomore defensive back. “I’m a public figure, so I can’t be saying derogatory things or negative things for kids out there and just people in general.” And while student-athletes at some institutions can’t use social media, one former ISU student-athlete feels as though Iowa State is different. “I think it’s kind of different at Iowa State,” said former ISU quarterback Austen Arnaud. “In areas like [Miami] with a bigger draw, those guys are more viewed by the public.” And Rhoads knows how important social media is to his student-athletes. “It’s 2011, and social media is a way of life,” Rhoads said. “That’s the way these kids have grown up, it’s who their generation is, it’s what they do, and they enjoy that. I don’t get it, but I understand that.”

Strong defense helps ISU gain momentum Use of defense helps to propel everything else. By Dean.Berhow-Goll @iowastatedaily.com
The ISU volleyball team has been relying on its defense to spark the offense as of late. “We definitely use it when we need momentum,” said junior Jamie Straube. “Sometimes if a team is getting a lot of kills on you, it can kind of get you down. But once you get a big block or a big dig in a crucial time, you really kind of

use that to propel everything else,” she said. Iowa State (15-3, 6-1 Big 12) is coming off of one of its best matches of the year defensively when they swept the Baylor Bears 3-0 (25-19, 25-14, 25-18) and kept their spot at the top of the Big 12 last weekend. The Cyclones collected a season-high 13 blocks as a team, which was the highest total since record of a fiveset match was made against Nebraska in 2009. They also held the Bears to a .023 hitting clip, which is the second-lowest hitting per-
DEFENSE.p6 >>
Aggies bring the pressure By Dan.Tracy @iowastatedaily.com After starting the season 3-0 and then dropping the last three games, it is no secret that Iowa State is feeling pressure to get back to its winning ways. When the Cyclones (3-0, 0-3 Big 12) try to end their three-game skid on Saturday against Texas A&M (4-2, 2-1), they will be feeling an additional type of pressure. Through six games, A&M leads all 120 teams in Division I football with 26 sacks on the season. There will be no shortage of defensive pressure from the Aggies. “It’s more than just the defensive line,” said coach Paul Rhoads. “About anybody on the field could come at any particular time as far as
the pressure goes, linebackers coming, safeties coming, [the pressure] really creates challenges for you picking it up and your quarterback having the poise to deliver the ball.” Led by the Big 12 leader in sacks linebacker Sean Porter with 7.5, 17 of the Aggies’ 26 sacks have come from linebackers and defensive backs. The Cyclones and Aggies face off at 2:30 p.m. on Saturday afternoon. The game will be televised and broadcast nationally on ABC.

centage of the year. The lowest came against Iowa, when they held them to .000 clip on Sept. 3 during the Iowa State Challenge. “I think it’s kind of where we begin. It’s kind of the foundation of our team, and it’s been our foundation year after year,” said coach Christy Johnson-Lynch. “If we feel like things aren’t quite going right or we feel like we aren’t getting kills the way we want, we always talk about it in the huddle. “If it takes three or four swings, that’s fine. Just keep defending and dig the ball until we get that good swing that we want.” Along with the Cyclones coming off one of their best matches, so has sophomore middle blocker Tenisha Matlock. Matlock recorded a careerbest eight block assists in the match. She also hit on a .444 clip and had eight kills which was tied for team lead. “I’ve just been staying focused during practice,” Matlock said. “For as long as practice goes I’m just continually trying to focus on getting my hands right, blocking right, doing the right footwork and stuff like that.” Matlock is playing her first season as a middle-back after moving from outside hitter last season because of shoulder problems. “On the outside you take a lot more swings, and it’s very hard on the shoulder,” Johnson-Lynch said. “We saw that last spring she tended to break down pretty quick. We probably wouldn’t have looked at it, but we knew she had shoulder issues, and that forced us to look at it.” Everyone around the team agrees that Matlock has taken
By Stephen.Koenigsfeld @iowastatedaily.com The ISU men’s lacrosse club will head into its 19th competitive season this spring. The sport being played on a field which is slightly smaller than a football field is making a name for itself in the Midwest. One fact that is hidden among lesssavvy viewers of the sport is that it is growing at a rapid pace. “[Lacrosse] is considered the fastest growing sport in North America. And that’s something we can brag about, I guess,” said Connor Jorgensen, president of the club and senior in marketing. A sport that is thriving out in east coast schools, such as Duke, North Carolina and Virginia Tech — all ACC schools — is slowly but surely making its way into more populated states in the Midwest, such as Illinois, Indiana, Minnesota and Iowa. “It was popular with the Ivy League schools, and then it just got lucky where it spread, and it’s just making its way over [to the Midwest],” said Alec Johanson, vice president of the club and sophomore in computer engineering. However, as bright as the future may seem for lacrosse as a sport, there are some difficulties that stand in the way of ISU Lacrosse getting its name out there. The Lacrosse Club currently is coachless and only has an interim student coach at the time. The team is looking for anyone who might be interested in the coaching position. Finding a coach is difficult due to lack of funds the club receives. “We are funded primarily by dues,” Jorgensen said. “We do get some funding from GSB for helmets and some travel reimbursement. But for the most part, the club is funded by players.” Funding for the lacrosse team is very tight. While the GSB only gives limited funding to the club for safety reasons, providing helmets and jerseys, the team itself gains most of their profits by fundraising and player dues. Dues for spring play range from $300 to $400. However, in comparison with teams Iowa State plays such as Duluth, Minn., where dues can range from $2,500 to $3,000. Teams like Duluth will travel to tournaments in states such as California, whereas Iowa State stays primarily in the Midwest, where its league is located. Iowa State is part of the Upper Midwest Lacrosse League and competes against teams from Minnesota, Indiana and Wisconsin. Money from dues and fundraising go to the league to pay for costs such as hotel fees, tournament fees and travel costs. While funding and coaching staff may slightly hinder the teams practice per-
to the position extremely quick due to her tremendous athleticism. Matlock attributes her Johnson-Lynch quick transition help from coaches and fellow players such as Straube and other middle-backs. Matlock “ I t helps that [Matlock]’s 6’3 and really athletic and really quick l a t e r a l l y, ” said assistant coach Trudy Straube Vande Berg. “She just wants to learn. She’s always asking questions. She expects to get a kill or a block every time.” Iowa State is also on its second straight bye week. Last week, players admitted that although it was nice to catch up on school work and to relax, they’d rather be getting ready for a match. “That’s definitely how I was feeling at this time last week,” Straube said. “You work on so many things in practice, and then you want to apply them to a game and just get ready to see how it all works.” Not only did some players admit to becoming antsy, so did the coaches. “In ways it’s been nice. Practicing a lot can get a little boring,” Johnson-Lynch said. “I think they’re ready to play. We’ve been working on some specific things the past two weeks which is nice to have that time, but at some point you want to see if we can do it in a game.”

formance, players said that this season is one to keep an eye on. “We’ve got a lot of new talent that we’re excited about,” said Steve Lindner, recruiting chairman as well as a midfielder for the Lacrosse Club. The team is going to continue improving in every practice, along with working together as a team. “We want to make more of a showing,” Johanson said. “Previously, we’ve been known as not as good of a team.
We’re in a pretty tough conference, just because of the size of our school. But we’re definitely going to make more of a showing this year.” Lacrosse has a huge reputation of being a very physical sport, along with being a mentally tough game to play. “It’s very physical,” Jorgensen said. “There’s a lot of hitting involved, but it’s known as a finesse sport as well. We’re working on being physical and our skills to be successful.”

Tournaments await ISU By Mark.Schafer @iowastatedaily.com Long breaks between tournaments can sometimes be hard to overcome, but the ISU tennis team has used its long break to better prepare for the rest of the season. The last tournaments that the team participated in were Sept. 16-18 at the Minnesota Gopher Invitational followed by Northern Iowa Invitational on Sept. 23-25. The team did not participate as a whole at either tournament, with the upperclassmen competing at the former and the freshmen competing at the latter of the two. “Since the last tournament, we have played a lot of matches amongst ourselves so we could stay match-ready,” said coach Armando Espinosa. Due to the success from the first two tournaments, Espinosa said two ISU tennis players will represent the team at the ITA Regionals, which will start this Thursday, Oct. 20.
“We are guaranteed one spot for the Regional Championship in singles and one doubles spot as well,” Espinosa said. “Based on some results this fall, we have decided to take Maria Macedo and Simona Cacciuttolo to the [ITA Regionals] tournament.” Macedo was one of the stars from the first two tournaments; she last competed at the UNI Invitational, where she easily won her singles match in straight sets (6-0, 6-2) over her Milwaukee opponent. Cacciuttolo and Macedo are going to be partners, in the doubles part of the tournament, for the first time. “It will be fun. We’ve practiced together a couple times but have never played a tournament as a doubles team,” Cacciuttolo said. “I’m looking forward to it.” Like Cacciuttolo, Macedo is also excited at the chance to play together. “Our practices together have gone well, so I think when we play an actual match we’ll
do well,” Macedo said. “It will be a good opportunity to learn together.” For Espinosa, he would like to see the team start to focus on doubles play for the upcoming tournaments as well as the season that will start in January. “We are going to focus on our doubles, so that hopefully for January, we would have a clear idea of who is playing with who,” Espinosa said. For the rest of the team, they will also be in competition this weekend at the Kansas Tournament this Friday through Sunday. Espinosa said it will be there that they will hope to continue to improve on various aspects of their game. “Everyone is playing well, we just need to get better under pressure,” Espinosa said. “The freshmen still have a lot to learn, we are happy with their development, they just need to get as many matches under their belt as possible so that they can contribute in the future.”

Reunion for local band By Vincent Geerts Ames247 Writer One of the reasons Poison Control Center front man Patrick Fleming moved to Ames in 1999 was to join the local band Pookey Bleum. Though the band has not played since 2003, its members will reunite for two shows in Des Moines and Ames this weekend. “Everything that I know about music came from playing in Pookey Bleum,” Fleming said. “The band has a very special place in my heart.” Shortly after he joined, the band started its own label. Bi-Fi records released work from many local artists of the time, including PCC and The

nally intended to mark the 10-year anniversary of the band’s “crowning” achievement, “Lo-Fi Rainbow,” released in April 2001. Unfortunately, Fleming was on tour with PCC at the time. The band decided to postpone the reunion. “I probably learned as much from

Patrick [Fleming] as he did from me,” said founding member Aaron Hefley. “He was willing to push us both to get out there and learn.” Hefley, who now lives in Miami, said he has missed playing in a band since moving five years ago. He continues to write music in his own project, Like Knives, but is excited to play a live show with Pookey Bleum for the first time in years. “A lot of what is great about the scene right now stems from Pookey Bleum,” Fleming insisted. Pookey Bleum’s shows at the Vaudeville Mews and The Space will feature what Fleming called the band’s “greatest hits” or “ones that the crowds like the most.”

Q: Did the talent of the bands surprise you? A: It was exciting to see what students can accomplish. I didn’t expect listening to the demos that they would be that good live and that was really exciting to hear. And I think the crowd really liked it as well.
Q: What made you decide to have Mike Stud perform to kick off Homecoming Week? A: I think last year we had about 10 people attend the headlining band. We wanted somebody that the students knew, and I think Mike Stud is good with a college group. He was able to get at least 200 to 250 people to attend, and that was awesome. He got the crowd all riled up and it was a really good time.

Connor Nolan of the Student Union Board had this to say about bringing Talcum to the M-Shop: “It’s cool to see Iowa musicians working with someone like Joe Jack Talcum from a band as well known as The Dead Milkmen, so when I met Sam Locke-Ward over the summer and he asked about bringing this to the M-Shop, it was a no-brainer.” Talcum encourages students to make lots of friends during college, both from a students perspective: “The opportunity to meet people isn’t as common as it is at college,” he said. “Take advantage of being able to meet people and for those close relationships, that’s what life is about.” And from a musician’s perspective “you’ll find a lot more musicians to play with in college then a lot of places. Take the bull by the horns.”
