ISU helping fight human trafficking Iowa State is working with the Network Against Human Trafficking to present the first Iowa Conference on Human Trafficking, to be held Wednesday, Oct. 26, from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. in the Memorial Union. The U.S. Department of State estimates that 14,500 to 17,500 people, primarily women and children, are trafficked to the United States annually, and of the 27 million individuals being trafficked globally, less than 5 percent of these victims have actually been identified. Specifically in Iowa, there has been 125 victims identified since 2005. Teresa Downing-Matibag, assistant professor of sociology and executive director of NAHT, has been crucial in planning the conference. She hopes that by raising awareness of human trafficking, individuals, businesses and universities, will become more active in combating human trafficking and regulating this “modern-day slavery.” “We hope to raise awareness about human trafficking in Iowa and across the globe and to empower the people of Iowa to identify, rescue and restore victims of labor and sex trafficking in our state,” Downing-Matibag said. “Human trafficking is a rapidly growing, international human rights concern ... if we allow this human rights violation to continue, unabated, it is going to become even more embedded in our culture,” Downing-Matibag said. “Pretending it isn’t there, or that it happens to people other than ourselves and our families, is only going to feed the crime.” One of the speakers at the conference includes a young woman who was trafficked in Iowa. She will be sharing her life story along with her thoughts on how to bring to safety young people trafficked in the state. “There are likely hundreds more trafficking victims in our state who have not been identified, and many of our most vulnerable populations are homeless or runaway youth,” DowningMatibag said. — Iowa State Daily

Program growth creates an issue with lack of space By Kaitlyn De Vries @iowastatedaily.com
Due to the increases in ISU enrollment each year, majors are seeing overcrowding within the classrooms, especially within the College of Design. “We are out of space” said Mike Miller, director of operations in the College of Design. “We are in desperate need for more space, not only for students but for researchers, shop needs, faculty and storage.” Miller said that with the recently added masters program and industrial design discipline to the design curriculum, classrooms need to accommodate those needs as well. This is not a new issue. Plans to start progress on this issue started about five to ten years ago. In order to create more room, accommodations were made for students with the construction of the King Pavilion and the restructure of the armory. “It’s a good problem, but at the same time it’s a challenge for students,” said Luis RicoGutierrez, dean of the College of Design. Miller and Gutierrez said they have asked for permission of the president to conduct a study of the needs of the College of Design in the medium and long term.

This study will serve as the basis for a proposal to expand the facilities available for faculty and students to conduct their activities. Now a “permission to plan” has been granted from the Capital Project Advisory Committee. Conducting a capacity analysis has been implemented and expects results in January. “We will assess our financial position and decide on best way to expand space within our means,” Gutierrez said.

Popular stylist Arrojo to visit West Des Moines By Elizabeth Krugler ISD Style Writer Celebrity makeover stylist will visit West Des Moines thanks to ISU alumnea, Whitney Landa. Nick Arrojo, stylist featured on the TLC show “What Not to Wear” will be in West Des Moines promoting products for his hair care line and presenting live makeovers. Whitney Landa works as the account manager for Arrojo Products in New York, and is a former ISU student who majored
in apparel merchandising and design. “I came to New York five years ago to pursue a career in fashion, but have had many great experiences along the way, not all pertaining to fashion,” said Landa. After an Internship at JV8 Inc., a casting agency, she began to work at a fashion show production and PR firm, called KCD, where she was able to work with high profile clients such as Marc Jacobs.

Students are from 35 US states, plus Washington D.C. and 18 countries About 10 percent of students identify as a US ethnic minority About 9 percent are international
Plans in the near future to upgrade and finish the remaining half of the restructure of the armory have now
been confirmed. The newly renovated space is for graduates and sophomores in industrial
design. The other half of the armory is for architects who are waiting for their half to be restructured like the industrial design space. “People care for the new space, and I think it raises the bar of expectation of professionalism and the quality of work,” said Will Prindle, lecturer in industrial design. He said he can see how the industrial design students appreciate and respect their new working environment.

Philanthropist Gerdin passes away By Carly.McKinney @iowastatedaily.com Russell Gerdin, Iowa State University namesake, donor and honorary alumnus, passed away on Friday, Oct. 14, but will not soon be forgotten. Born in Princeton, Minn., in 1941, Gerdin grew up helping his father with his trucking company. As soon as he was old enough, young Gerdin was assisting with washing trucks, and later gained his license and began trucking. After graduating from high school, Gerdin joined the U.S. Coast Guard, and later attended Morehead State University, where he obtained a bachelor’s degree in business. Two years following his graduation from Morehead, Gerdin married Ann Mikkelson, who would be his wife of 44 years. Shortly after, Gerdin’s business career began. Through a series of purchases and sales of trucking companies, Gerdin eventually ended up purchasing Scott Transportation in Swisher,
Iowa, in 1978. He renamed the company Heartland Express, which became an extremely successful business. Before the couGerdin ple ever experienced great business and financial success, Gerdin and Ann decided that if they were ever to earn a great deal of money, they would donate much of it, 50 percent going to education and the other 50 percent to wildlife programs. Dr. Ben Allen, current president of the University of Northern Iowa and longtime friend of Gerdin, said Russ “always had a strong interest in education.” Later, Gerdin moved more toward education and health care assistance, and has made a great impact on both areas of need right here in Iowa. Within his own company, Gerdin set up an educational trust fund to help educate the children of his employees. The fund has already helped to assist over 300 students.
In Iowa City, the couple donated $4 million dollars to the Hope Lodge, a center for cancer patients and their caregivers. The Gerdins have also assisted in education in Iowa City. The University of Iowa also claims Gerdin as a namesake on their Gerdin Athletic Learning Center, and the couple donated $5 million in sports scholarships to the university. Gerdin has also assisted his alma mater. Morehead State University claims Gerdin as a namesake on their Gerdin Wellness Center, which the Gerdins assisted in funding. At Iowa State, the Gerdins also have made numerous contributions. After meeting Allen, previous vice president of academic affairs here at Iowa State, Gerdin served on the Dean’s Advisory Council. Allen believes Gerdin’s time on the council made Gerdin aware of the needs for a new facility for the business department. Referring to Gerdin as an “extraordinary business person,” Allen requested in 1998 that Gerdin donate money to the College of Business
since Gerdin had the resources to donate. The Gerdins made the decision to donate $10 million to the cause relatively quickly. Allen believes Gerdin saw good things happening within the business program here at Iowa State and that aided the decision. Gerdin agreed to donate the money on some conditions, however, and his donation began a $35.5 million initiative. The university would be expected to raise a certain amount of money following the initial donation. “I‘m sure that’s where many of the other name spaces in Gerdin come from,” said Dan Ryan, program coordinator for the College of Business. Money from the state was also used in the funding of the Gerdin Business Building, which was finished in 2004. Why did this man, not even from Iowa, decide to donate all of this time and money to Iowa State? “He wanted to help the kids of

Celebrity News Notes and events.
John Mayer recovering from throat surgery Singer/songwriter John Mayer had throat surgery last Thursday, and the Grammy winner has taken to his Tumblr to brief fans on his recovery. “I wanted to give you an update on the granuloma just above my vocal cord,” Mayer wrote on Oct. 20. “I had surgery this afternoon to remove it and am now on complete vocal rest for a month or more. It’s been a very long process in waiting to see if time was an alternative to surgery, but even given two weeks’ voice rest [along with many other approaches], there was no change for the better.” The troublesome granuloma (a small area of tissue inflammation) caused Mayer to cancel concerts last month. “I’m bummed to have to bow out of both the iheartradio Music Festival in Las Vegas and an appearance with Tony Bennett in Los Angeles,” the acoustic rocker said in a statement at the time.
‘Bachelorette’ DeAnna Pappas ties the knot It was not a “Bachelorette” match, but contestant DeAnna Pappas did have a wedding made in reality television heaven. People reports that Pappas, 29, married high school teacher Stephen Stagliano, 27, on Saturday in her native Georgia. Though Stephen is a teacher, he does have reality connections. Stephen and DeAnna, who got engaged last summer, were introduced by Stephen’s twin, Michael Stagliano, and his thengirlfriend, Holly Durst. As you may recall, Pappas was rejected by Brad Womack on his first stint as “The Bachelor.” Which led to her season as “The Bachelorette.” DeAnna was engaged to contestant Jesse Csincsak for the second half of 2008.

>>GERDIN.p1 Iowa,” Allen said. “He was just a good person.” When asked to put his name on the building, Gerdin was reluctant. He wished to remain anonymous in his donation because he did not want to take credit for the money which his employees helped him to earn. He was asked to put his name of large stature on the building to attract more donors to support the building initiative. Because of the positive effect their name would have, the Gerdins agreed to have the building named after them. The business building was only one of many donations the Gerdins have made to Iowa State. Later, the couple would donate $100,000 to both the Citizenship Program and Cyclone Athletics. $1 mil-
lion was given to the first doctoral program for the College of Business. Both Gerdin and Ann later became honorary ISU alumni. Allen says Gerdin had the firm belief that “it’s not who we are, but what we do and what we believe.” Gerdin became very close with many of the people he served, especially Labh Hira, dean of the College of Business, who was unavailable for comment. But how can a business man of such stature keep such close personal relationships with his colleagues? “He didn’t separate the two,” Allen said. He was a tough business person but would tell you exactly how he felt. Everybody knew exactly where he stood, which led to Gerdin and Allen becoming closer when expressing their feelings.

Allen described Gerdin as “bigger than life.” He worked hard, enjoyed life, was a great people’s person, was “compassionate and passionate,” and was a loyal friend. Gerdin pushed that he was “just an old trucker.” While a leader in the trucking industry, Gerdin cared deeply about his family. Upon Gerdin’s retirement on September 2 due to his liver cancer, his son Michael took over as CEO and President of Heartland Express. Gerdin spent most of his last days at his company and with his family. “Smart, wise, and kindhearted,” as Allen described him, this old trucker managed to make an impact on more students, faculty and business people than he could ever imagine. He passed away at the age of 70 in his home with his family by his side.

Following her job at KCD she began working at J. Crew but said, “The beauty world was calling my name.” She got the opportunity to work for a company that is based in London but was opening its first U.S. flagship store in Manhattan called SpaceNK. Landa said, “SpaceNK was a brand I knew inside and out for two years, and where I had the great pleasure of meeting my current boss, Nick Arrojo.” She began working for Nick Arrojo at his SoHo hair salon as a client coordinator for a brief time and then was given the opportunity to be the relationship manager for ARROJO Ambassadors, for salons across the country that carry Arrojo products.

Private storage within each desk, system panels and carpet creates a professional office atmosphere. “The next phase is to consider an expansion of the College of Design,” Gutierrez said. “Designers will be able to design their own building. In
parallel, the College of Design will prepare a financial plan that will dictate how ambitious we can be for the new building additions.” The dean said the internal expectation is very high. “We are not leaving any rock unturned” Gutierrez said. “We are finding as much support as possible to create a facility that our students deserve.”
SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — Truck driver Louis Holst has never been scared of bees, but he’s rethinking his next long-haul load a day after being swarmed by 25 million of the stinging insects. Holst and his wife, Tammie, picked up 460 bee hives in South Dakota and were about 36 hours into their drive Sunday night when he hit a sharp bend in a construction zone on Interstate 15 in southern Utah. The twist in the road toppled his trailer and sent the bees into a frenzy. “First responders came and drug me and my wife through the front window,” Holst said Monday. “Then we panicked.” Swarmed by bees on the highway, Holst said he ripped off his shirt and began swatting the air. His wife ran. “We just started swinging our clothes,” he said. “They stung her all up and down her neck.” Authorities closed the southbound lanes of I-15 near St. George for several hours while area beekeepers headed to the scene to try to corral the insects. The road was reopened early Monday morning, and Holst said most of the bees were either dead or gone. “Nobody was prepared for anything like that,” he said. At least two first responders also were stung at the scene, said Utah Highway Patrol Cpl. Todd Johnson. Holst, 48, of Gig Harbor, Wash., said he got 10 stitches to close a gash on his forehead and was stung about a dozen times. His wife, too, suffered stings, bumps and bruises. The 25 million bees were headed from Adee Honey Farms in Bruce,
farm had been sending south for winter, Adee said. Asked whether he’d haul bees again anytime soon, Holst — who normally ferries lumber and construction materials — paused. “Well,” he said, “my wife’s looking at me right now, so I’ll say no.” The Associated Press

MYSTIC, Conn. (AP) — A male beluga whale has been flown halfway across the country in the hopes it’ll mate with one of two female belugas at a Connecticut aquarium. The 2,100-pound, 13-footlong whale is named Naluark (nah-LOO’-ark). He’s on loan at the Mystic Aquarium from the John G. Shedd Aquarium in Chicago, where he has sired three calves. His trip to Mystic involved two truck transfers and a chartered flight during which he was suspended inside a customized container filled with water. Aquarium officials said Monday he has since joined other belugas inside the Mystic Aquarium’s Arctic Coast exhibit. The two female belugas at the aquarium have been identified by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums as top priority for breeding because neither has mothered a calf. The white whales were declared endangered in 2008.

Editorial
Flat tax rate will not fix our problems Perhaps the most popular idea to come out of the Republican Party’s nomination contest so far is a flat income tax. Several candidates have touted their support of the idea as a selling point for their campaigns. The more well known supporters of a flat tax include Mitt Romney, Rick Perry and Newt Gingrich. The idea would have more credibility if it came from these politicians as part of their time in office, pursuant to their official duties — namely, working toward the general welfare, as our Constitution puts it. But instead it comes from politicians seeking election to the highest office in the land. While candidates should always be expected to propose and to some degree hash out ideas to some degree of viability, those ideas should be related to actual circumstances, not quixotic idealism. A flat tax is probably not right for the United States at this time. Even if you think we have a spending problem, not a revenue problem, the fact is that in the past decade our budget deficits have skyrocketed. After surpluses of over $100 billion from 1999 to 2001, budget deficits grew from $157 billion in 2002 to $1.41 trillion in 2009. We have those numbers despite lowering taxes on the wealthy and the wealthy allegedly taking their opportunity to grow the tax base. The sheer size of ongoing debate and its duration indicate by themselves whether lower tax rates lead to larger tax receipts is a question that is not answered satisfactorily. Some individuals, if not most, have always been left with their incomes untaxed. Before the 16th Amendment was ratified in 1913, income taxes were levied on only a few occasions. During the Civil War a tax of 3 percent on incomes over $800 was enacted. In 1894 Congress passed another income tax: 2 percent on incomes over $4000. Attempts to levy income taxes on those most able to pay has been part of our political scene for a very long time. And, should anyone complain about his or her tax bill, think on this: the top rate during the final two years of World War II was 94 percent. Some evidence shows a correlation between lower taxes and economic growth with higher tax receipts. Revenues defied expectations and increased in the years following the Revenue Act of 1964. But our economy is not the one we had then. And frankly, in a world where members of one party filibuster anything that might become an increase in taxes and members of the other party filibuster the removal of taxes, we don’t have time to let the free market solve our problems for us.

Cain’s policies spell danger Recent frontrunner lacks real experience for big race There seems to be a new frontrunner in the race for the Republican nomination for president, and that man is Herman Cain. Cain took the lead in many polls after what seems like the fiftieth Republican debate (is anyone keeping track anymore?) and seems to have the momentary spotlight shining brightly on him. He was even at the ISU football game this weekend, showing support for Iowa State before the caucus comes around. His popular 9-9-9 tax policy, which sounds strangely familiar to a pizza delivery pricing scheme, is taking the GOP base by storm. Many are touting him to be the man to bring down Obama in 2012. But it seems to me that Republicans are forgetting a major fact that was their main attack against Obama in 2008: His involvement in politics and public activities before running for president is zero. None. He has not spent one day in a political office, nor has he ever been an elected official. And I do not count being voted into a CEO position by a board of directors as an “elected official.” Republicans across the gamut in 2008 were up in arms about having a Presidential candidate with little experience in public office, but the fact that Herman Cain, one of their own, has none seems to matter not this time around. The fact that Obama was a state senator from Illinois and a U.S. senator before his presidential run withstanding, Obama’s entry into politics, and community organizing, is still in the proverbial crosshairs of the GOP to this day. But what is community organizing?
By Jacob.Witte @iowastatedaily.com All politics is local, as Tip O’Neill once said, and community organizing is about as local as one can get to being active in politics. Being politically active in one’s community is the very essence of the foundations of being political, and allows us to break free from the constraints of the private realm. Organizing demonstrations against unfair lending practices, speaking out against local real estate agencies and the practice of “redlining,” or just rallying to get members of city council elected can all be difficult experiences, but so goes the practice of politics. As John F. Kennedy, a fellow president that did not have a lengthy public service career before entering office, once said, “Winning a ward fight ... is the same as winning a presidential fight.” And now, the Republican voting base, in favoring Cain, who is notable as being CEO of Godfather’s Pizza chain, wants his businessoriented mind to change the government into just that: being run like a business. However, there is something fundamentally wrong with that presumption. The American scheme of government was never supposed to be run like a business. Government is supposed to protect its citizens of the many malicious practices of
corporations, not aid in that process. When the economy goes into a recession, and millions of people are laid off, government protects those people by providing unemployment insurance to keep the economy going. When oil companies are degrading the landscape and poisoning the earth, government (is supposed to) regulate via the Environmental Protection Agency and prevent pollution of this type. Herman Cain is troubling for these reasons, that he not only has no experience in any political office, but he wants to treat government as a business. His stance on the Occupy Wall Street is also perplexing to say the least, as he stated that people who are jobless only have themselves to blame. So I guess the fact that 15 million Americans are unemployed or underemployed are to blame for their current situation, not the documented fact that Wall Street, while unleashing rapacious greed and fraudulent business practices torpedoing the global economy, caused these people to lose their jobs through no fault of their own. Herman Cain is not an exception — he is merely, as Michele Bachmann put it, the “flavor of the week” for the GOP. This current mindset of Republicans that “government should be run like a business” should be put to rest. Government has been doing that for long enough now, and like in an unfettered corporation, the wealth inequality in this country is staggering enough that the current levels have not seen since the late 1920s. And we all know what happened then.

#Occupy
If no one cares, does it still matter? “L
isten, strange women lyin’ in ponds distributin’ swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.” A quote from one of the greatest comedies of all time, “Monty Python and the Holy Grail.” But it makes a point, a point that a certain “nationwide” effort seems to have forgotten, and more specifically our generation has chosen to sit out of. First things first, I’m 100 percent for the #occupy movement pending some form of specific objective or leader that comes forward. The protests actually translate into votes at the ballot box, not to mention votes that aren’t just wasted on our two “political parties.” But those are two things I don’t currently see happening. I know the government is corrupt, I know that the richest 1 percent control 40 percent of the wealth, I understand the concept of the 99 percent, but none of that matters if no one cares. And that’s what I think is the truth. I point out to you Exhibit A: #OccupyIowaState, a group of people that took to campus two weeks ago. I call it a group of people, not a group of protesters, because it wasn’t a protest. It was more like an extremely loud town meeting. There was just over 100 people, but what are you going to do with 100 people? Maybe you can go occupy the UDCC or something, because you know, as well
By Heath.Verhasselt @iowastatedaily.com as I do, that’d annoy at least a few people, but that’s about all it’d do. And that’s just it, where was the support? Where’s that political activism that we all claimed to be back in 2008 during the presidential election. Back when politics was “kind of cool.” It’s fascinating how riled up people become when it comes to the presidential campaign, but are oblivious to the politics here at home. Did you know the retention rate of the U.S. Senate is about 84 percent? Congress is about the same, with 85 percent in 2010, down from 94 percent from elections before. If you want to change something, change the people who make up the congress because they’re just as guilty as Wall Street. But let’s be real. We’re in Iowa, and we have a 6 percent unemployment rate, one of the lowest in the country. What exactly do we have to complain about? It’s getting cold soon? We’re used to that. Maybe it’s more of a national problem and we’re the exception? After all, nationwide unemployment is at 9 percent, which is right on the border of bad and terrible. It’s at this point that I present Exhibit B: #occupywallstreet. The

heart of the protest movement and where it all began. Guess how many occupiers showed up on Oct. 15 for their “big protest?” About 5,000 protesters took to Times Square. Keeping in mind a good amount of them being a bunch of scene kids who were bored, this movement has almost become a joke. Any idea how many protesters show up when they want political change in Egypt, Yemen or Tunisia? I’ll give you a hint, it’s not in the thousands. Someone called it the WhinyWhinePercent, and I think that speaks some truth. You could argue that most us are too entertained with Facebook, the Jersey Shore and
the NFL to be concerned with political issues, but I hope that’s not the case. Of course there’s always something to complain about, but I do think that this issue has some merit. Let’s not waste our hype for nothing. Let’s actually get this ball rolling. If change is truly in the air, then let’s go full force on this mother. I want to see some serious Facebook events, some real student leadership, and just a pinch of peer pressure to make this political change possible. #occupy

Nation: NCAA might increase grants for student atheletes WASHINGTON — NCAA President Mark Emmert backed a proposal to allow conferences to increase grants to student athletes by $2,000, “to more closely approach” the full cost of attending college, beyond the athletic scholarships athletes receive for tuition, fees, room, board and books. Emmert told the Knight Commission on Intercollegiate Athletics on Monday that the proposal will be finalized this week and he’ll ask the NCAA Division I Board of Directors to support it at their meeting Thursday. He noted that student athletes have limited opportunities to work outside the classroom and playing fields, and that the current model of athletic scholarship hasn’t changed for 40 years. Emmert says he’ll also ask the board to allow colleges and universities to provide multiyear grants, instead of year-to-year scholarships. “We are going to create a model that would allow — probably ... up to $2,000 in addition to” tuition, fees, room and board, books and supplies. Emmert said he expected all of the Bowl Championship Series conferences to adopt it — at least those six that get automatic bids to BCS bowl games — because they have the revenue stream to afford it. “Will schools underneath that?” he asked. “I don’t know. So you don’t want to put a conference or a school in a position with a mandatory expense, and the only way to pay for it is to cut scholarships.” The Associated Press
Racing:
IndyCar trying to make the sport safer after death INDIANAPOLIS — IndyCar drivers and officials debated how to make open-wheel racing safer Monday. Now comes the hard part: turning talk into action. More than a dozen IndyCar drivers met for three hours with series officials about preventing another fatal accident. The meeting came eight days after two-time Indianapolis 500 winner Dan Wheldon was killed in a fiery, 15-car crash in the season finale at Las Vegas and less than 48 hours after he was buried in his adopted hometown of St. Petersburg, Florida. “How we react to this is critical, and we’re very encouraged with what happened today in terms of ideas,” four-time IndyCar champ Dario Franchitti said. “Fingerpointing is not going to do any good at all, and we’re all unified going forward in one direction.” Although those inside the meeting room declined to share specifics, the discussion was expected to cover everything from tracks used by to new Plexiglas catch fences to putting canopies over the drivers’ open cockpits. IndyCar does have time to consider potential changes because it won’t race again for six months. The Associated Press

By Dan.Tracy @iowastatedaily.com After relieving junior Steele Jantz early in the first quarter of Saturday’s homecoming loss against Texas A&M, redshirt freshman Jared Barnett will have another homecoming of sorts as the starting signal caller for the Cyclones in Lubbock, Texas, against Texas Tech on Saturday. Lubbock is 360 miles west of Barnett’s hometown of Garland, Texas, but he’ll have plenty of family and friends in attendance at Jones AT&T Stadium, that is if he can find some tickets. “I have asked maybe five guys for extra tickets and it’s just Monday so it will be a lot more later on in the week,” Barnett said. A big challenge lies ahead for Barnett, who will be called on to help revive an offense that has averaged only 18.5 points per game in its last four games, all losses. “We have not played productively as an offensive football team and a good part of that is your quarterback play,” said ISU coach Paul Rhoads at a press conference on Monday. “Steele has not played at a level that we would see him continuing on as a starter in this game based on especially what Jared did coming off the bench versus Texas A&M and Missouri for that part. It’s a relatively easy decision for me to see the need for a change and put Jared in that position.” Rhoads lauded Barnett for his decision-making during the Cyclones’ 33-17 loss to Texas A&M, but the offense sputtered at times, especially on third down where they only converted on six of eighteen chances. “It was just one or two plays that we were away from really opening up that game, it’s been like that all season,” Barnett said. “Just one or two plays here and there, and we’ve had these turnovers. We’re really close.” Although the Cyclones came out on the losing side of the game against the Aggies, one of the more striking statistics for Barnett was a zero in the turnover column. On the flip side, Jantz had turned the ball over at least once in each of the seven games this season including an intercep-

tion on the first play from scrimmage on Saturday. “He certainly made more good decisions than he did bad decisions over the course of that football game,” Rhoads said of Barnett. “The fact that he’s so inexperienced and remained so calm I think is a little bit surprising to myself as well as our staff.” The first quarterback recruit to commit to Iowa State during Rhoads’ tenure, Barnett was ranked 27th nationally among dual-threat quarterbacks by Rivals.com as a senior in high school. “Plain and simple, I have to get the ball to my playmakers,” Barnett said. “We have a lot of them on the
field. It’s just about finding them and getting it to them on time in space so that they can make plays.” Although he has appeared calm on the field and with the media, Barnett admitted that he has had some jitters in his three appearances this season. Barnett’s composure will be tested this weekend as the Cyclones prepare to face a Texas Tech team that upset No. 3 Oklahoma 41-38 on Saturday. “It’s easy to be the relief pitcher or the second team quarterback coming in and get that spark and be able to take advantage of it. Now he has to do it as the starting quarterback,” Rhoads said.
Linebacker on the road to recovery By Jake.Calhoun @iowastatedaily.com Jake Knott is on the mend after dislocating his shoulder twice in Iowa State’s Oct. 8 loss to Baylor. A week later, coach Paul Rhoads admitted to the media that the junior linebacker and co-captain had not been practicing for two weeks due to other various ailments. “It’s bothered me a little bit the last few games, but it’s not really something you think about when you’re out there,” Knott said. “So you’ve just got to get through it and work past that part of the game.” Knott has since returned to full speed and said Monday that he is feeling the best that he has since the
Baylor game. Knott recorded a career-high 18 tackles in the loss to Baylor, but only managed seven total tackles since. Knott “You can notice a little bit more from the outside point of view — his style of play, he still tries to play hard, he’ll come up and run and hit, but I Tau’fo’ou think he may be a little hesitant sometimes,” said linebacker Matt Tau’fo’ou. In Knott’s limited action,
Tau’fo’ou has “quietly had a very solid senior year,” Rhoads said at his weekly news conference on Monday. Tau’fo’ou notched a careerhigh 10 tackles on Saturday in the Cyclones’ 33-17 loss to then-No. 17 Texas A&M. “Whenever you get the opportunity, you’ve got to take advantage of it,” Tau’fo’ou said. “Whenever you get the opportunities which you don’t know, you have to prepare as if you’re starting every day.” As for the lack of production on paper, Knott said it is not so much his injury as it is where he finds himself in the defensive scheme. “The last couple weeks, I haven’t

ISU wins big on road By Dean.Berhow-Goll @iowastatedaily.com
Being able to win close games can make a big difference. Being able to win close games on the road in the Big 12 conference can make all the difference. Last Saturday, the ISU volleyball team went into College Station, Texas, to face Texas A&M. The Aggies were 7-0 at home before facing the Cyclones, who won in four sets (25-21, 25-23, 23-25, 25-23) and emerged unscathed still sitting atop the Big 12. “It can be a tough atmosphere to play in, and it’s a really good team,” said coach Christy Johnson-Lynch. “[Texas A&M] is really athletic, they have a great tradition there so it wasn’t surprising to me that it was as close as it was.” The game was not only close in score, but the two teams nearly mirrored each others’ stats. Iowa State actually had fewer kills than A&M with 53 to their 55. That marked the third time that the Cyclones had fewer kills and still won the match. Iowa State managed six aces to the Aggies’ four. With her performance Allison Landwehr crossed the

With seven weeks gone in the 2011 NFL season, the Suck for Luck Competition is starting to come into clear focus. It’s clear that three of the bottom four teams in the league — the Minnesota Vikings (1-6), Miami Dolphins (0-6) and Indianapolis Colts (0-7) — are each doing their best to play as awfully as possible in order to secure the No. 1 pick in the 2012 NFL Draft, thereby securing Andrew Luck as their pick. There clearly can be no other explanation as to why these teams have put the product they have on the field. How else can you explain signing (and planning to start) Sage Rosenfels? Or losing to a team led by Tim Tebow after leading 15-0 with under 3 minutes to play? Or having your NFL quarterback (Donovan McNabb) tally 39 total passing yards in a game? Or losing three games after leading by 17 or more points at the half? Or signing Kerry Collins at all, then having the audacity to put him on the field? Or losing 62-7 on national television? These are truly new levels of awful, not seen since the 2008 Detroit Lions set the new bar of sucking. We’ll give the 0-6 St. Louis Rams a pass on the Suck for Luck Competition, as the team has been hit with a myriad of injuries and clearly have their quarterback of the future in Sam Bradford. But the rest? The other three teams are in one of the tightest races in NFL history. There is a definite possibility that two professional football teams will not win a game this season. The Colts and Dolphins face daunting schedules on paper. Miami plays in a division with the New York Jets, New England Patriots and the upstart Buffalo Bills. The Dolphins face the Bills twice, and the Jets and Patriots each once the rest of the way. That’s 10 losses, and the only other remaining games we see them having a chance at winning would be at home against the Oakland Raiders and Washington Redskins. As for the Colts, they have a less difficult strength of schedule the rest of the way but have shown themselves to be far more inept on both sides of the ball. Unless Peyton Manning makes a miraculous recovery, wins against Jacksonville or Tennessee at home are the only wins we see possible. The Vikings are the least likely of the three to win the competition, as they’ve been close in several games, and the Redskins and Broncos are very beatable with Adrian Peterson in the backfield. So that leaves the Dolphins and Colts as the two most likely to finish last in the NFL. Miami just has fewer weapons for their inept quarterbacks to throw or hand off too. We think the Dolphins Suck for Luck, and finally get Dan Marino’s replacement after years of searching and toiling through the Daunte Culpepper and Jay Fielder years. And for you, Andrew Luck? We just hope you’re Luck-y enough to survive like Peyton Manning once did in Indianapolis.

fidence and we’re definitely resilient,” Jenson said. “We want to win all those games. We want to get that Big 12 Championship and this is the year to do it.” Iowa State continued its balanced attack on the offensive side of the net against A&M. Jenson led the Cyclones with 17 kills and 10 digs, adding another doubledouble. Behind Jenson was middle back Jamie Straube who had 10 kills following right behind her were Tenisha Matlock, Kelsey Petersen and Victoria Hurtt, tallying nine, eight and six kills respectively. “Hurtt came in and did a fantastic job,” JohnsonLynch said. “She blocked probably as well as I’ve seen her block this year. I was excited to see that, and I’m sure she was excited to see that too.” Moving ahead to this week, Iowa State will face Kansas at home on Wednesday and then will head to Austin, Texas, to face the Longhorns who are tied with the Cyclones for first place in the Big 12.
>>TEXAS.p5 2,000 assists milestone on Saturday. Landwehr had 44 of the team’s 49 assists in the match to bring to her a career total of 2,018. Landwehr also tied her career-high in digs with 14 against A&M in posting her third-straight double-double and 20th in her career. On the defensive end it was the same pattern. Iowa State recorded 75 digs to Texas A&M’s 70. This was the second time that the Cyclones have tallied at least 75 digs this season, the other being against Florida. “We were streaky,” said senior Carly Jenson. “Our defense is really scrappy, and we got it done basically. We did let them get back into some games, but we were the aggressor and went out and got it done.” Being able to win the close games is something that Johnson-Lynch said she thinks is great about this year’s team. The players can’t help but agree. “[Winning close games] shows we have a lot of con-

>>KNOTT.p5 really been able to be around the ball very much because I’ve been turning things back to other guys,” Knott said. “When it gets more spread open, I have more opportunity to run down plays, so that’s probably when the tackle numbers will go back up.”
Rhoads’ antics not considered negative for team At his weekly news conference on Monday, coach Rhoads said he did not see his berating of the line judge on the sideline of Saturday’s game as a distraction. “I’m an animated guy, I’m a passionate guy,” Rhoads said. “Coaching football is my livelihood, and fighting for our football team and most importantly for our kids and the opportunity to win football games is my responsibility. I love that. I never need to apologize for who I am or how I do it, and I never will.” When ISU football players were asked what they thought of their coach’s antics, they also viewed them as a positive. “I like it when someone’s out there showing emotion like he does,” said defensive end Jacob Lattimer. “He’s not sitting back in the back just blending in with everybody, he’s out there with us. He’s per-
sonally out there and showing emotion and getting after it and personally I love that.” During that game, Rhoads was seen jumping up and down, yelling at the line judge during one of Texas A&M’s scoring drives in which his team was flagged. “It’s an awesome feeling to know that he’s fighting for you [and] to know that he sees what you see and that he does think that you’re being cheated in some sort,” said quarterback Jared Barnett. “And that’s a great feeling. Coach Rhoads is a great guy and he’s always going to fight for us.” However, when asked what he had been saying to the line judge that night, Rhoads simply replied, “I asked him where he was from.”
Improvement of the defensive line Saturday’s three sacks by the ISU defensive line matched the number of sacks given up by Texas A&M’s offensive line all season. For part of the game, the defensive front made things uncomfortable for A&M quarterback Ryan Tannehill, a far cry from the beginning of the season when consistent pressure was rare. “We’re a more mature defensive line now,” said Patrick Neal, who leads the

So we’ve specifically addressed why those reasons all occurred and began coaching them yesterday on how not to allow it to happen again,” Rhoads said.

Costumes in your closet By Ainsley Chapman & Katie Henry ISD Style Writers
Halloween festivities are in full swing this week. This year, instead of splurging on a pricey Halloween costume, taper your spooky look to a more everyday costume. Save a few bucks and avoid going over the top on your festive look by using items from your own closet.

The epitome of a dramatic eye. Smokey eyes are a sassy look to any party or evening outfit, and just perfect for the upcoming Halloween weekend. Creating the perfect effect may seem daunting, but different blending and application techniques make it easy for those of us who aren’t makeup artists. The charcoal look has been deemed the classic smokey eye, but other shades such as purple tones can create the same illusion. When choosing which type of smokey eye to create, look for tones that compliment eye color and skin tone. Grays, blacks and tans are flattering on most eyes. The smokey eye can be done with two shades of color, but three creates the ultimate sophisticated look. The shades should consist of a shimmer, a lighter base color and the darkest of the shade’s family. Eyeliner and mascara are also essential. When doing any sort of makeup application, it is important to use the right set of tools. A medium round-sized eye shadow brush will help blend the shades best. A sponge can also work well. After every application, use the brush to go over the newly applied makeup to ensure it is properly blended. Smoky eyes should be the highlight. Minimal cheek and lip color complete the look. Nude lips and light bronzer help make the eyes attentiongrabbers. For extreme drama, try deep darker tones such as raspberry color.

Nothing could be easier than remaking this old school favorite. You can get really creative with this one. Look for a plaid or solid colored pleated skirt and add your favorite button down Oxford shirt. Top off the sexy, studious look with a pair of fake glasses and red lipstick. Basic black pumps work well to tie the costume together.
It is about time someone spiced up the dull witch costume. Instead of the traditional dress, try a pair of black skinny jeans paired with a sheer blouse. Purple works well to offset all the black. Swap the witch’s cape for a long cardigan and the witch’s hat for a black headband. Lace up black heel boots help to tie the whole look together.
For this ethereal costume, a nude or white dress works as the centerpiece. Curl your hair and put it into a half up-do and add a gold headband. If you really want to get authentic, spray paint some small leaves gold and put them in your hair. Then add gladiator sandals, some gold accents and jewelry to complete the look.

CYCLONE HOCKEY #15 David Kurbatsky
Kurbatsky scored the first goal of the game Saturday night, only 2:07 into the contest, and set the pace for the Cyclones' eventual 4-2 victory over the Arizona Wildcats. Having scored 5 goals and 4 assists in 12 games, Kurbatsky has been a major contributor offensively to the team's impressive 10-0-1-1 start, but he's also played a strong defensive game, too, evidenced by his teamleading +13 rating. The Cyclones are back in action at home this Friday night at 7:30 and Saturday night at 8:05 against the Illinois Fighting Illini.
