The Secret Word today is: Comeback. Pee-wee has returned from exile.

Paul Reubens, who virtually abandoned the cult character he created nearly two decades ago following scandal, is making his Broadway debut with a reworking of the same theatrical show that started Pee-wee’s career in the late 1980s.

Reubens, now 58, has been soaking up the attention this time around. He has donned his Pee-wee suit and popped up all over New York to drum up attention for “The Pee-wee Herman Show,” which officially opens Nov. 11.

Everywhere he goes, people say: “Welcome back!” and “Glad you’re back.”

Stewart/Colbert rally draws thousands A ‘sanity’ rally blending laughs and political activism drew thousands to the National Mall on Saturday, with comedians Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert as the unlikely maestros of moderation and civility in polarized times. Organizers insisted the “Rally to Restore Sanity and/or Fear,” just days before the congressional elections Tuesday, wasn’t about politics.

Still, supporters and left-leaning advocacy groups hoped it would rekindle some of the voter enthusiasm for Democrats seen in 2008, particularly among young adults.

The list of entertainers included musicians Sheryl Crow and The Roots. Actor Sam Waterston and Don Novello, who years ago played Father Guido Sarducci on “Saturday Night Live,” were also expected to appear.

The rally generated extensive buzz on the Internet, with more than 226,000 people on a Facebook page created for the event saying they would attend.

The liberal Huffington Post was sending a caravan of 10,000 people on 200 buses from New York, while Oprah Winfrey expressed her support by providing travel expenses to a “Daily Show” studio audience of about 200 members so that they could attend.

Iowa recruits met with Kutcher, Moore The University of Iowa told the NCAA the school allowed two basketball recruits to meet celebrity Hawkeye fans Ashton Kutcher and Demi Moore. Such a meeting would be a recruiting violation. The recruits met the married movie stars at an Iowa-Iowa State football game in September and two former Iowa basketball players the same day, The Des Moines Register reported Sunday based on records obtained under Iowa’s public records law. NCAA rules prohibit recruits from contact with individuals considered to represent a university’s athletic interests.

Students are having difficulty finding jobs after graduation. What will you do to stimulate job growth?

Economic development is one of the key roles that the Board of Supervisors should be [playing] here at Story County.

The supervisors need to step in and do a better job of really assisting the economic development committee and make sure that we’re bringing the kind of jobs to Story County that will be hiring our college graduates. We’ve got such a wealth of great talent here, and we’ve got nowhere else for them to go except pack the car and leave Story County. We’ve got to see if we can change that.

Jon Murphy (D) Murphy has work experience in the Iowa Legislature, U.S. Congress, higher education and organizational politics, according to his campaign website.

He worked under Congressman Leonard Boswell in Washington, D.C. in 1999 as a legislative assistant.

He was director of the Iowa Office for State-Federal Relations in 2007, meaning he was the “state’s point person on federal policy,” according to his website.

Murphy lists five major issues from his platform on his website: Protecting your money Auditing every department of state government, every year Putting people ahead of partisanship Providing leadership and vision Making the stat auditor’s office accessible

>>CONVENTION.p1 vote for the convention.

A constitutional convention has not occurred during the entire 164 years since Iowa was admitted to the union in 1846 and has only been permitted by the Iowa Constitution since 1970. The last attempt to hold a convention was in 2000 and was overruled with a vote of only 32 percent in favor of the convention. This year could be Iowa’s first constitutional convention.

According to Article X, Section 1 of the Iowa Constitution, in order for a standard amendment to the Constitution to be passed, it must be presented to either house of the Iowa General Assembly and pass through both houses with a majority of votes.

The bill is then placed on the ballot for the next general or special election and voted on by Iowa residents.

However, a constitutional convention is a very different process. The convention is made up of a legislature-appointed committee of delegates that discuss and amend bills before passing them onto voters in a general or special election.

This allows approved bills to skip the long and difficult process of making it through both houses, which can take four years or more and go directly to voters.

“You could presumably have voters say ‘yes’ to the convention on the ballot,” said Richard Johnson, legal services director for the Legislative Services Agency.

“If so, it could potentially be on a special election next fall,” he said in reference to bills approved by the convention.

Many political and religious groups are hoping to give a few failed bills a second chance; one is a bill titled House Joint Resolution 6.

It reads, “Marriage between one man and one woman shall be the only legal union valid or recognized in this state.”

If this bill were to be passed, it would overturn the Iowa Supreme Court ruling that ruled in favor of samesex marriage in the controversial court case, Varnum v. Brien.

The bill, HJR6, was initially introduced to state legislators in February 2009. The bill was sent to committee, but failed to be approved and did not make it to the House floor. It was resubmitted in February 2010 when the motion to address and amend the resolution failed once again.

However, because the topics of the constitutional convention are not limited to exclude previously failed bills, it could return.

“The contents of this resolution [HJR6] could be proposed in the constitutional convention as one of the results that could go to voters,” Johnson said.

ISU students face staggering debt when they graduate. What do you think is the best way to help?

[There] is not much that a county candidate can do about that, but I think it’s important that the legislature and the state try to keep the tuition [from increasing]. It’s like every year they have a tuition increase and they just keep passing the cost off to the students. [There are] different programs that are available for students [and] dif-

ferent creative ways to try to get tuition funding, but I think it’s the most important thing for the state to try to keep the tuition increase to a minimum.

Students are having difficulty finding jobs after graduation. What will you do to stimulate job growth?

As a member of the Board of Supervisors, it’s difficult for the county to take a lead role in economic development, but it’s important that the county have a supporting role for ... the economic commissioner [and] any other economic development efforts that are underway in the county. I think it’s important for the board to be active on those commissions [and also] help graduates from Iowa State to at least stay in Iowa when they graduate. With more technology, it’s more important that students have a reason to stay after they graduate and not flee the state in an effort for a better job or a job in their own field.

Lucy Martin

ISU students face staggering debt when they graduate. What do you think is the best way to help?

What are the most important differences between you and your opponent(s) this election?

Relevant experience — My career in the financial industry has provided me with the necessary skills and common sense business solutions that are needed in the Story County Treasurer’s office. In my current position as business banking officer for Ames Community Bank, I have responsibilities similar to that of a county treasurer. I work regularly with investing public funds. I also manage all of the business banking technology for my company as well as manage projects, train staff, write procedures and work with budgets.

Proven community leadership — I currently serve on a number of local boards, commissions and committees, including the Ames Human

that helps Ames and that helps Story County in general. That’s a problem nationally.

Students are having difficulty finding jobs after graduation. What will you do to stimulate job growth?

Economic development is one of the main [issues] for the Story County Board of Supervisors and we don’t directly create jobs, but I think we have to take a more active role in the county to make sure to keep the jobs that we have here and to track development, especially along the I-35 border, the Lincoln Highway corridor and work with our communities. In general, Iowa seems to hemorrhage its young people, we need to get them to stay here and we also need to get people to come back, and economic development is one way to do that. I think the board’s role is to work with all our communities to make sure that we promote regional development and that it’s not [an] “us versus them” mentality with the different communities fighting amongst themselves; that we all understand that any [progress] helps us all.

Renee Twedt Iowa State is committed to green energy, but what can you do to help us make the university and the state more green?

We all need to encourage more recycling and going”electronic” to minimizing paper waste. Create a “challenge” within the workplace to help get people involved.

Take the initiative to volunteer within your community to demonstrate your commitment to

recycling and the good it can do for all of us.

What are the most important differences between you and your opponent(s) this election?

My 23 years of experience helping individuals and businesses with their financial growth and tax strategies has heightened my ability to positively impact the residents of Story County through accurate management of taxpayer dollars. Working in an accounting firm, I have a greater hands-on knowledge of individuals and businesses because I deal with them all day, every day. I have demonstrated my dedication and commitment through exemplary customer service and strong, independent leadership in my current position.

Becoming an enrolled agent, I have earned the privilege of practicing and representing taxpayers before the Internal Revenue Service. I will serve Story County with the same diligence, honesty and integrity that have empowered all of my lifetime experiences.

>>RETENTION.p1 rights have campaigned hard to remove the justices from their positions.

The group Iowa for Freedom, spearheaded by politician and businessman Bob Vander Plaats, has helped in the movement to encourage residents to vote out the justices.

“In April of 2009, we all witnessed blatant judicial activism by the Iowa Supreme Court. The court legislated from the bench ... they governed from the bench ... and, they even attempted to amend our constitution from the bench as they declared Iowa a ‘same-sex’ marriage state.

This is not their role. The Legislature makes the law.

The governor executes the law.

And, only ‘we the people’ can amend our constitution,” said the group’s website.

Meanwhile other groups have tried to educate the public about the importance of political noninterference in judicial affairs. Although Iowa does have the ability to vote on whether to unseat a justice, the event would be highly unusual.

>>WESSEL.p1 dents to be able to understand what is coming to them in the future.

Students are having difficulty finding jobs after graduation. What will you do to stimulate job growth?

There are two pretty significant things that governments can and should do to encourage growth.

No. 1 is the infrastructure.

We need to make sure sewers and roads are adequate to keep drawing in business. We’ve done that with I-JOBS, getting things up and running again after some pretty devastating hits to our state. It has made sure our infrastucture has stayed updated.

Iowa has been rated by CNBC as the number one place to start a business, Forbes Magazine rated Iowa as the best place to do business.

We’ve invested in green energy.

I think we’ve created 8,700 jobs in that field.

Iowa State is committed to green energy, but what can you do to help us make the university and the state more green?

I think we need to continue to invest in research areas. The biofuels research building was recently built, which was a good start. Sustainability is exactly what we need to be thinking about.

I’m also a huge advocate for a public transportation system. We need something that will take us out of Ames and into Des Moines.

serves on the judiciary and agriculture committees.

Despite being part of the “Gang of Six� who worked on drafting legislation of the health care reform, he voted against it and would support its repeal. He questions the federal mandate to purchase health insurance, although he was among 20 co-sponsors of a bill in 1993 to impose a mandate to buy coverage.

Some issues Grassley continuously brings up is legislation to allow cameras in court rooms and support for Sunshine Laws, and he has spent almost 14 years trying to abolish the Senate procedure known as “secret holds,� where a U.S. senator can place a hold on a motion, bill or nomination without putting his or her name on the public record.

Branstad left office.

Much of Branstad’s campaign has put a focus on the economy, as he repeatedly touts during his time in office the state unemployment rate went from a record high to less than 3 percent when he left in 1999.

Part of his proposals include opening more trading of Iowa’s agricultural products with South Korea, getting rid of the Iowa Department of Workforce Development and starting a new publicprivate partnership and incentives to keep young Iowans here rather than leaving the state for careers.

Instead of making the Iowa Defense of Marriage Act an issue central to his campaign like other GOP candidates did in the primary, his approach includes a pos-

Roxanne Conlin (D) Conlin is a practicing attorney and public defender. She is a former U.S. District Attorney. She ran for governor in 1982 and lost to Terry Branstad.

Conlin often discusses the large family she was raised in and the difficulties her family faced when her father lost his job and hit hard times.

She graduated high school early, graduated from Drake University at 21 and went on to a form a career in the legal world.

She said the reason she wanted to run against Grassley this year was a result of the debate on health care reform in summer 2009.

She supports health care and ďŹ nancial reform but said she would not have forted for TARP. Conlin said she would oppose any attempt to privatize Social Security, wants to end tax credits for companies that outsource jobs and close corporate tax loopholes.

>>REPRESENTATIVE.p1 Despite economists of multiple viewpoints stating the stimulus helped the economy, Latham said it was ineffective and said the government spent too much in the past two years.

He supported the College Opportunity and Affordability Act, which he said increased the maximum authorized Pell grant for low-income college students from $5,800 to $9,000 annually. “My goal in this election is to send Nancy Pelosi back to San Francisco permanently, to do whatever they do in San Francisco, I’m not sure,� he said at a recent conservative event.

Bill Maske (D) Maske spent his career as an educator. He was a coach and educator at the America School in Tehran, Iran, and was an education administrator in several school districts across the state.

He remained active in politics throughout either as a chair of an organization, involving himself in campaigns and serving as a city councilman.

He supports repealing No Child Left Behind and said more power over education belongs to the states, but wants to ensure states have sufficient funding for their school systems.

Maske wants more emphasis placed on teaching children around ages three and four because of their ability to learn at that age.

On education, he also would like to see legislation passed that guarantees all high school graduates two years of free post-secondary education at a community college or public college or university, and increase availability of low-interest or no interest loans beyond the ďŹ rst two years.

Maske generally supports the health care reform that passed. He said, “This bill is not all that we had hoped it would be, but it is a great beginning to much-needed health care reform in this country.�

In October 2009, Culver made the decision to enact a 10-percent, acrossthe-board cut to the state budget which hit public schools particularly hard. The governor said at the time it was a choice of raising taxes or cutting government spending.

He said he would force local school boards to spend their cash reserves before enacting any raises in property taxes.

In September, the Culver administration announced the state had a near record budget surplus of $336 million and grabbed the support of the National Rie Association.

Culver began the I-JOBS program, which has been devoted primarily to infrastructure and ood recovery. It was bonded and will cost more than $1 billion, but is being entirely from gaming revenue.

the university. Back in 2001 we had a recession, and the state budget was cut and the universities were cut pretty severely.

That set off a wave of major tuition increases that increased the cost of going to school. I never want to have that kind of thing happen again. What we did about four years ago, the Board of Regents and legislature made a deal to restore the funding that we lost and in return the Board of Regents would hold the increase to a rate of ination. I think we should work out a deal along those lines again.

Another thing we must do is increase scholarship aid.

Monday — Friday 6:30 a.m. to 11 a.m. of a community feel

By Nicole. McIntosh iowastatedaily.com Gateway Hotel in Ames, 2100 Gateway Drive, has revamped its restaurant to make an atmosphere with more of a community feel.

The IowaStater Restaurant replaced Audubon’s and is focusing on Midwest comfort food with flair.

The Iowa State Foundation owns Gateway Hotel, which is a nonprofit organization that helps raise money for Iowa State with private gifts and grants.

They wanted the restaurant to have an overall feeling of community and tie back into Iowa State, said David Adler, the director of food and beverage for Gateway.

The restaurant is named after an old alumni newspaper, which was published from 1974 to 2002.

The food has changed as well.

The prices are more affordable and lean toward comfort food, rather than fine dining.

“Just because the prices are down doesn’t mean the quality has changed,” said Joe Weisz, executive chef for the IowaStater.

Weisz, an Iowa native, attended one of the top culinary schools in the nation, Cook Street.

He went on to work in Hawaii, San Francisco and Denver. Weisz said he believes in “playful experimentation” when it comes to food.

The menu features American classics such as mac ‘n cheese, pizza and sandwiches to twists on the classics such as buttermilk onion rings, caramel pecan french toast and barbeque pork tacos.

Entrees available after 5 p.m. include pork chops and salmon.

The menu changes every quarter to keep the food as fresh as possible.

Additionally, the restaurant offers weekly specials, such as 20 percent off for all Iowa State students, faculty and staff.

The expansion made the dining room much bigger with more light, creating room for more tables and chairs.

The restaurant now seats up to 100 guests.

Private party rooms in the back of the dining area are available to reserve

for a small fee.

The bar also expanded to seat 15 guests instead of only three.

There are two big-screen televisions to watch football and basketball games on as well.

The restaurant has the opportunity not only to serve local residents and college students, but to give out-oftown guests the chance to have a taste of Iowa State.

“Business has definitely picked up,” said Butch Burns, bartender for the IowaStater.

“So many more people from town have been coming in,” he said.

The IowaStater has been in business for 45 days, and it has already seen a great increase in business.

The restaurant had its grand open-

The restaurant kept the original staff with the addition of extra servers to accommodate more tables and customers.

It also added a few cooks because the menu nearly doubled.

Triple play: the Fed, election, job report Week ahead will provide answers to uncertainty

By Blake Ellis CNN staff reporter NEW YORK — October was another strong month for markets, but uncertainty kept stocks in a tight range over the past week.

Now, some of that uncertainty is about to fade.

The first week of November brings three events that have the potential to shake up markets: the Federal Reserve’s meeting, the midterm elections and the release of the government’s October jobs report.

“We have a triple play coming up,” said Doug Roberts, a chief investment strategist at Channel Capital Research.

“These three events are going to overshadow everything else.”

While the S&P 500 and Dow logged their best October in several years, major indexes simmered in the last week of the month as investors stayed on the sidelines amid a raft of economic reports.

“We’ve seen all that we need to see of the economic data, there are no surprises now — it’s still the weakest recovery we’ve seen in generations,” said David Sandell, portfolio manager at Leeb Capital. “It’s clear that we need more help, and whether it comes out of the Fed or out of Washington remains to be seen, but likely we’ll see it from both.”

Elections: Wall Street is banking on a win for Republicans in Tuesday’s

midterm elections, a change that many investors believe to be pro-business and therefore a boost to the market.

“There’s pretty decent certainty that Republicans will take over the House, but the question is whether they will take over the Senate,” Roberts said.

“Either way, the results will lift a little bit of uncertainty.”

Fed decision: Investors will be pouring over the Federal Open Market Committee’s meeting announcement, released Wednesday.

The Fed is widely expected to launch another round of monetary stimulus in an effort to boost the economy.

Just the anticipation of the move — referred to as quantitative easing — has pushed the S&P 500 up 11 percent since the Fed’s intentions were announced in August.

Now the question is how big the injection will actually be.

“People are wondering, ‘is it going to be $500 billion? $1 trillion? $2 trillion?’,” Roberts said. “If the size of the stimulus is less than expected then you might have a little bit of a sell-off, but the market would accept a smaller amount positively if [the Fed] indicates continuity with it and says it won’t stop until they achieve their goals.”

Jobs report: The third piece of the triple play is the government’s closely watched jobs report.

Since the extent of quantitative easing is expected to be known by the time the jobs report is released Friday, investors will be eyeing it for signs of whether the Fed’s action was warranted.

Employers are expected to have

added 45,000 jobs in October after cutting payrolls by 95,000 the month before. The unemployment rate is expected to hold steady at 9.6 percent.

Home run?: If the midterm elections result in a power change, the Fed provides an appropriate boost to the economy and the jobs report shows signs of life, stocks will likely get a significant lift — at least for the short-term.

“Everything has to fall into place correctly next week to continue going higher,” said Alan Lancz, president of Alan B. Lancz & Associates.

Monday: A report on personal income and spending is due before the market open.

Economists surveyed by Briefing. com expect income to have risen 0.3 percent in September after jumping 0.5 percent in August.

The Institute for Supply Management’s manufacturing index for October is on tap in the morning and is expected to have edged down to 54 from 54.4 in September. Any number above 50 indicates growth in the sector.

Construction spending is forecast to have ticked down 0.5 percent in September, following a rise of 0.4% in August.

Tuesday: On top of midterm elections, the FOMC meeting begins and BP is slated to report results.

Wednesday: The FOMC’s rate decision is due at 2:15 p.m. ET. Economists expect the Fed to leave key interest rates unchanged at a range of between 0 and 0.25 percent.

Payroll services firm ADP is forecast to report that employers in the private sector added 25,000 workers to their payrolls in October after cut-

ting 39,000 in the previous month.

Outplacement firm Challenger, Gray & Christmas issues its report on planned job cuts in October.

Factory orders are due from the Commerce Department. Orders are expected to have edged up 0.6 percent in September after slipping 0.5 percent in August.

The ISM services sector index for October is expected to have ticked up slightly to 53.6 from 53.2 in September.

Auto and truck sales are due throughout the day, and the government’s weekly oil inventory report is also released Wednesday.

Time Warner, AOL, CVS Caremark and News Corp. are all on tap to release earnings.

Thursday: The government’s weekly jobless claims report comes out Thursday, with 450,000 Americans expected to file new claims for unemployment, after 434,000 were filed in the previous week.

October same-store sales figures from major retailers are due in the morning, along with a report on thirdquarter business productivity from the Commerce.

Results from Cablevision, DirecTV and Sirius XM are on deck.

Friday: In addition to the government’s big jobs report, the National Association of Realtors releases its pending home sales index, a measure of sales contracts for existing homes.

The index is due before the start of trading and is expected to have risen 0.5 percent in September after rising 4.3 percent in August.

A report on consumer credit is forecast to show a decline of $3.8 billion in September, following a drop of $3.3 billion in the previous month.

Editorial

Vote for better usage of land, water quality We’re voting “yes” for Iowa’s Water and Land Legacy amendment.

Our biggest asset is the environment, and land stewardship is a responsibility we all share.

We’ve all heard about Iowa’s problems with erosion and runoff. Ames may have some of the best water in the nation, but almost 53 percent of Iowa’s waterways have been deemed “poor” in terms of quality.

We’re 47th out of 50 in conservation spending, a statistic that’s downright shameful in a state where 90 percent of the land is dedicated to agriculture.

The Iowa Water and Land Legacy amendment seeks to create a transparent, constitutionally protected trust fund for conservation. Passed by Iowa legislators in a remarkably bipartisan fashion — more than 90 percent of the vote — the measure also includes stipulations around public competition for funding, mandatory audits and the creation of a citizen’s oversight committee regarding fund management.

This won’t be an increase in taxes.

Instead, it’s a mechanism that earmarks 3/8 of the first cent of a future sales tax increase toward conservation, generating $150 million annually. Two-thirds of this funding would go toward water quality, with the rest going toward parks, trails and habitat.

While we’re not fans of constitutional amendments to push pet projects, the idea of a conservation fund in the wording of our state constitution is something we definitely support.

Take a look around, what are you surrounded by? There are buildings, but if you walk an hour in any direction from Central Campus you will end up in the country. This is where we live. If you live in one of Iowa’s larger cities, you still live in the country.

Some would put forward that there are many other worthy causes that the future tax money could go to, and that is true.

There are many things in this state that need improved.

There comes a point where we desperately need to address the short comings of our states land usage and water quality. If we care, even a little bit, about the environment we live we need to vote accordingly.

When it comes to state-funded programs, you get what you pay for. Right now we’re not paying for very little, and the statistics speak to that. It’s not that there aren’t people that are ready to get to work restoring Iowa’s prairies, wetlands, and begin the steps necessary in cleaning up Iowa’s waters.

It’s that they need money, plain and simple.

Tomorrow you need to vote “yes” for the Iowa Water and Land Legacy amendment.

You need to do it not just for yourself, but for your future children.

Yes, we know that thinking about having kids is scary, even if they are kids that wont be birthed for years.

How poor will the water quality be if we don’t rectify the situation?

By the time your future child is old enough to play in a stream, will 75 percent of Iowa’s water ways be in the “poor” category for water quality? Will it be even worse than that?

Will we wait until it’s 80 percent? How about 90 percent?

Vote “yes” for Iowa Water and Land Legacy now. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. ™

Columnist Belding points out that voting is only a small part of the political sphere. To truly be involved with politics, citizens must be aware of where the candidates stand on the issues and remain politically active between election cycles. Photo: Bryan Langfeldt/Iowa State Daily

Voting is not enough

By Michael.Belding iowastatedaily.com

Off-season involvement is just as important as voting

T

he political off-season is about to begin. On Tuesday, Nov. 2, huge masses of the freest people in the world will go to their precincts, fill out their ballots and go home. They will think they have participated. They haven’t. The political off-season — that time between elections – in no way requires their votes or presence.

I urge you to go vote, but only if you have taken the time to explore the candidates and what they think of the issues. Watching TV ads and reading the fliers that come to your mailbox don’t count. If you can’t make heads or tails of politics, ask a politically astute, trustworthy friend who will talk to you about who the candidates are, how they conduct themselves in their offices and what the ballot initiatives mean.

Voting isn’t political. How could it be?

When a person goes to fill out a ballot, he does so in a closet-sized space all by himself.

At the end of the day, when the votes are tallied, the winners are the party whose voters, in isolation, arrived at the same conclusion.

Politics is an activity that is possible only with other people. Voting, which relies on force of numbers alone, isn’t political. And

the campaign season isn’t either.

The time between elections is what’s actually important. The two-or-so-year period between election cycles does not involve the ordinary citizen. He cannot march into Washington, D. C. and cast a vote on any measure — not even the most insignificant parking assignment decision.

Between elections is when solutions to problems are brainstormed by people who can actually implement them. Potential solutions are drafted, worked out, discussed and approved or rejected. Politics in the interim between elections focuses not on galvanizing supporters, discouraging the opposition and winning by sheer numbers.

Actual politics focuses instead on crafting solutions to issues and controversies.

To actually be involved in politics, citizens must be involved in politics all the time, not just during campaign season. Voting isn’t enough. You cannot simply go vote and expect the world to be changed because of it.

Politics requires continuous involvement, not participation for a single moment on a single day.

Have you noticed that it’s the people who appear in front of public buildings throughout the year with their banners and speeches that receive news attention and set trends for the next campaign season?

Despite such demonstrations’ composition as masses of people, they are effective vehicles of political participation. That is because the members of that mass are the people who agitate during campaigns.

Voting won’t change the world. Yes, it determines who holds office and who enacts law until the next election. But the issues are determined by the people impacted by crisis situations and the publicity they garner. If a problem isn’t exposed to enough attention, it does not become an issue for the public realm to solve through our government, election-decided institutions.

Please vote. But only do it if you have a reason. If you’re voting simply because you’re allowed to, and not because there is a legitimate issue you care about, don’t cast your ballot. In voting anyway, people dilute the political pond and take away power that rightfully belongs to the voters who will agitate for an issue year-round, until the next election.

What is disturbing about this isn’t that people vote for no reason. What is disturbing is that people act for a single moment as if things matter to them, and then they stay home until the next election.

Elections aren’t the only opportunity to try your skill at politics. They exist to reaffirm your participation.

Habits

Sexy things you care about

By RJ.Green iowastatedaily.com I’ll be serious here for about, oh, four sentences, in an attempt to ward off any criticism regarding being chauvinistic or encouraging risky behavior.

“No” means no, and “stop” means stop. Taking advantage of drunk girls is absolutely disgusting, and I have a mile-long list of people who seem to think otherwise.

Sex is a fantastic experience that’s been ruined for too many girls on account of drunken jerks, and that needs to stop. If you violate a lady, rest assured - you will be getting what’s coming to you.

Moving along — now that I’m a semester out from being able to call myself a real scientist, I’d like to point out that we’re all here for one purpose: reproduction. Consequently, sex is the best thing ever.

That’s why the orgasm exists — it’s a biological adaptation to guarantee reproduction.

You exist to have sex. Good sex. Find someone, fall in love and have at it.

Most girls decide within the first five minutes of knowing you whether or not they’d sleep with you — if you get all clingy and start blowing up their phone, they’ll lose interest.

Ever get sick of going to Adventureland, since you’ve already been there and know what to expect? Same thing applies here.

Act like a gentleman, open doors, stand when she leaves the table and when she gets back, and let her make the moves.

The best way to get a girl physically interested in you is to keep it in your pants until she pulls it out. What I mean by that is this — let her run the bases.

If you’re interested in her, she’ll know, and if you’re a gentleman, she’ll appreciate it. Reciprocate, but don’t advance.

That challenge drives her

crazy, and that keeps her interested. You can’t let them completely win, or they will.

The fastest way to a girl’s heart is remembering two words at all times —ladies first.

Condoms are gross. Not as gross as STDs, mind you, but when it was called “the glass slipper of our generation” in “Fight Club,” that hit the nail on the head.

I know guys who have never gone without, and couples who use that as their sole form of birth control.

If you’re walking home with some bargoyle you picked up at one of the fratty bars, hell yes, use a condom, but a long-term monogamous relationship?

“Wow, honey, I love you too, just give me a second to slip this 75-cent slime-balloon on to my dork before I show you just how much.”

Sex with condoms is like watching an R-rated movie on basic cable.

So everyone knows about the shocker, right? You can probably visualize the reverse shocker, rocker and spocker if you think real hard.

The best one? The minivan — two in the front, five in the back.

Some studies suggest a correlation between chronic marijuana use — is that phrase redundant? — and a lower sperm count. Yeah, birth control, that’s a horrible side effect.

OK, I’ll say it: Sober sex is great, drunken sex is fun, but stoned sex is absolutely fantastic. Other than being hungry during and afterwards, there really aren’t any downsides. You’re in college.

Don’t be a prude.

“Saving yourself” until marriage is a notion I find antiquated at best. Why would you buy a car without a driver’s license, much less a test drive? That’s a recipe for success if I’ve ever heard one.

Apparently, premature ejaculation might be an evolutionary adaptation. I guess back in our rapin’-toreproduce days, being quick on the draw came in handy.

I guess most guys are satisfied in something like five minutes, and girls somewhere between 10 minutes and never.

I never got the appeal of the marathon sex. I’m not talking about multiple goes in one session, I’m talking about the hour-long bone-a-thons people say they enjoy. I guess I don’t get it.

The position that produces the ugliest children? Ask your mother.

I don’t mind the hypocrisy regarding the gender dichotomy of promiscuity. There’s an old saying: If a key opens many locks, it’s a master key.

If a lock is opened by many keys, it’s not a very good lock.

Sex without foreplay is like sitting in a hot tub and waiting for it to heat up.

If you’re curious, there’s an ideal penis size chart you can find on Google. It’s a plot that assigns grades based on the most favorable responses from women on length and girth. I started to wonder why there wasn’t an ideal vagina size chart, then I realized it doesn’t matter for most dudes.

Don’t forget to kiss. Kissing is almost as important as everything below the belly button. It’s definitely the difference between good sex and great sex.

The crazy things guys do for sex is hilarious. Girls are attracted to stature — the confident, stable, self-made man. His baloney pony? Not so much.

My gender, on the other hand, is putty in the hands of a woman who may or may not sleep with him.

This is why girls have those “guy friends” who bend over backwards for them on the off-chance she might sleep

with them. If you’re in the “friend” zone and you haven’t already done the deed, it’s probably never going to happen, but most guys will hang in there for the slim chance of requited love.

Entire wars have been waged over vaginas. You ladies can say what you like about feminism and empowerment, workplace equality, the gender pay gap, whatever, but at the end of the day, lady parts beats rock, paper and scissors. This is why our dads don’t all have pool tables and jet skis.

Hot tubs, swimming pools and beaches are horrible places for sex, Hollywood be damned.

Rooftops, the Tiers, Central Campus and moving vehicles, however, are fine and dandy. Not that I’ve ever done such a thing.

Citizen Cope, the middle stretch of Morning View

by Incubus, Donovan Frankenreiter and most R&B is acceptable hookup music.

3OH!3 ... not so much.

I had no idea this actually happened until an ex-girlfriend told me, but apparently, there’s this thing called a “refractory period” where a gentleman will lose his mojo after he ... er ... makes a deposit at the baby bank?

That’s really too bad.

Girls — what’s with the biting and the fingernails? I mean, whatever, I’m glad I’m doing it right and all, but holy hell, I’ve woken up some weekends looking like I got attacked by a badger. Put some mittens on or something.

Give me a pat on the back.

I’m not sure what type of dancing it is that some girls think correlates to bedroom expertise. The Stanky Leg? The Shopping Cart? I don’t get it.

One of my best friends holds the state record for swimming butterfly, and I’m pretty sure that was part of the pitch when I introduced him to his fiancee.

Cyclones down Jayhawks

Homecoming game marks success for ISU football after 28–16 victory

By Dan.Tracy iowastatedaily.com Luckily for the ISU fans amongst the Homecoming crowd of 46,485 at Jack Trice Stadium, there are two halves to a football game.

Unable to muster any offense and giving the KU offense more than 21 minutes with the ball in the first half, the Cyclones trailed the Jayhawks 9-7 after a trio of field goals from KU kicker Jacob Branstetter.

However, after a first half that found the Cyclones trailing in total yards 170-122 and first downs 10-5, the Cyclone offense came alive in the second half.

Three rushing touchdowns on their first three second-half drives gave the Cyclones (5-4, 3-2 Big 12) the lead and enough momentum to hold on for a 28-16 victory over the Jayhawks (2-6, 0-4).

“I take my hat off to our kids for the execution, for never doubting and the perseverance that they displayed in playing an entire football game and finishing that thing off in the second half,” said ISU coach Paul Rhoads.

Although he has been known for his fiery postgame speeches, Rhoads approached his team calmly at halftime, letting them know that they needed to start executing if they wanted to improve in the second half.

“It was a calm locker room because I made it that way,” Rhoads said. “I reminded them that this is exactly what we had expected, nobody needed to be surprised. Nobody needed to doubt, but what we needed to do was execute, which offensively we didn’t do, remotely, in the first 30 minutes of the football game.”

ISU senior quarterback Austen Arnaud completed four passes for 31 yards and was sacked twice in the first half.

“I think there was a little nervous energy coming off a big win last week,” Arnaud said. “We tried to forget and just play this week, but we came out flat as an offense.”

The Cyclones came out of the locker room with a quick second-half opening drive, at only 2 minutes and 35 seconds, but it ended with kicker Grant Mahoney kicking an extra point, not punter Kirby Van Der Kamp dropping back to punt.

On the ninth play of the drive, senior running back Alexander Robinson scored on a 2-yard rush, giving the Cyclones their first lead of the day at 14-9.

“We got ourselves into a rhythm; we picked up our tempo a little bit, and when we got in a rhythm, we started executing,” Robinson said.

The senior back was a big part of that momentum as he went over the century mark in rushing yards for the second week in a row, finishing with 117 yards on 17 carries and a touchdown.

After a Kansas punt, Iowa State milked the clock with another lengthy drive that lasted 16 plays over 89 yards that ended with freshman running back Jeff Woody scoring his first career touchdown on a 3-yard plunge.

Then, with 1:58 remaining in the third quarter, ISU sopho-

more linebacker Jake Knott intercepted his fourth pass of the season which set up the Cyclones’ final score, a 33-yard scamper by freshman running back Shontrelle Johnson.

“The offensive line opened up a big hole for me, and I had to make a guy miss, but once I came out of the cut, I knew it was a touchdown,” Johnson said.

Starting out at the left side of the line, Johnson made a quick cut to the right at the line of scrimmage and dashed in for the Cyclones’ third touchdown in as many drives.

“It looked like he hurt a couple people, without touching them,” Rhoads said.

The Johnson run would mark the final score for the Cyclones as they held the KU offense out of the end zone until Jayhawk running back James Sims scored on a 5-yard touchdown reception with seven seconds left in the game.

Second-ranked Nebraska sweeps No. 12 Iowa State

By Jake.Calhoun iowastatedaily.com The ISU volleyball team snapped its six-match win streak with a threeset loss to No. 2 Nebraska (19-25, 16-25, 16-25) on Saturday night at Nebraska Coliseum in Lincoln, Neb. No. 12 Iowa State (16-5, 9-4 Big 12) experienced its fourth straight loss to Nebraska (20-2, 12-1) after defeating the Huskers last season in Lincoln, Neb., for the first time in the program’s history in a five-set thriller on Oct. 21, 2009.

Victoria Henson’s team-high 11 kills leapfrogged her into second place all-time in ISU history for career kills with 1,569. The senior outside hitter now sits behind Kristin Hugdahl’s all-time record of 1,620 career kills, which was set in 1995. She surpassed Steph McCannon’s mark of 1,566 career kills, which was also set in 1995.

Henson’s 10 digs also resulted in her ninth double-double on the sea-

son and the 1 26th of her career.

Iowa State 19 N U Nebraska 25 right-side h i t t e r Lindsey Licht led all hitters in the match with 12 kills, which contributed to her match-high 14.5 points.

Sophomore Alison Landwehr had a season-low 23 assists to lead the team, a reflection of the Cyclones’ ineffective passing.

Apart from the Cyclones’ frustrated passing component, they also experienced a barrage of trickery from the Huskers’ multiple-hitter 6-2 formation, which increased the difficulty of assigning blockers to certain opponents.

The Huskers outhit the Cyclones for the second straight contest between the two this season, averaging a .256 hitting percentage. The Cyclones, who registered only 10

more kills than attack errors, hit for a dismal .089 hitting percentage, their worst

of the season.

Jamie Straube hit at a .250 clip, leading the ISU starters, registering five kills on 16 attempts.

The Cyclones were outdug for only the third time this season, compiling 50 digs to the Huskers’ 59 digs.

Senior Carly Jenson led the Cyclones with 11 digs, while Henson and libero Ashley Mass added 10 digs to the team’s total. True freshman Kristen Hahn also added seven digs in her eighth match of action this season.

The only two other times the Cyclones had been outdug this season was the Sept. 18 match at Missouri and the Oct. 9 loss at Kansas.

started the third straight match of her career for the Cyclones in place of junior right-side hitter Kelsey Petersen.

In two sets, Matlock registered two kills, one dig and one assisted block

for the cardinal and gold.

The Cyclones return for the final match at Ames High School on Wednesday as Baylor comes to town.

The match is set to begin at 7 p.m.

Freshmen come up big, as team shuts down Tigers 5–0

By Blake.Schultz iowastatedaily.com Coming into Friday’s game against Missouri, the Cyclones didn’t have much to play for.

They had been eliminated from postseason play, and this was their last game of the season. But Iowa State still found a way to stay motivated and shut out the Tigers 5-0.

“We knew this was our last game,” said ISU freshman Emily Goldstein. “We put ourselves in a hole, so we couldn’t get to the Big 12’s, but we just put aside everything, and we played for each other and especially the seniors.”

Goldstein, who led the Cyclones in points this season, put an exclamation point on her season’s stats, scoring a goal and grabbing three assists.

The entire game was a perfect recap of the season for the freshmen, on the whole.

In Big 12 games this sea-

son, only freshmen scored for the Cyclones, and Friday night was the same story. Each of the five goals scored in the game were from five different players: Caitlin Graboski, Theresa Kucera, Goldstein, Brittany Morgan and Emily Nowka.

“We put a lot of pressure on them from the word ‘go,’” said coach Wendy Dillinger. “They knew coming in what the expectations would be. They knew they were brought here to elevate the program.”

Elevate the program is exactly what the freshmen did.

For the first time since she got here in 2008, Dillinger won three Big 12 games, and the win on Friday was the largest margin of victory — five — over Big 12 opponents in the program’s history.

“I was frustrated at times because it was up and down, and we hadn’t won as many

1 2 final games as I would’ve liked,” Graboski said Missouri 0 0 0 of the season. “But I think we are rebuildIowa State 2 3 5 ing this program, and I think in years to come, we’re going to be up time. To start the second half, there.”

That move came back to in the third minute of the haunt them. game.

win.

As time expired, senior Ashley Costanzo led the Cyclones’ bench to pile on top of fellow senior Jordan Bishop on the field.

“I’m happy that we were

able to send Jordan and Ashley out,” Dillinger said. “[The team] worked very hard, and we’ve been in some close games, so to end it with that kind of outburst on offense was huge.”

Hockey

Penalties, mistakes costly in weekend losses

By Dan.Kassan iowastatedaily.com In hockey, both teams during a given game will commit penalties and give the other team a man advantage. Lately, No. 8 Iowa State has been on the penalty kill more than the power play.

“I don’t mind taking penalties occasionally for hitting too hard, but not some of the stuff we took penalties for — hooking, roughing, interference, holding,” said coach Al Murdoch.

The Cyclones (5-9-0) committed six penalties in a 4-1 loss on Friday and another six in a 5-1 loss on Saturday.

Ohio capitalized, notching a power-play goal Friday and three more for the easy victory Saturday.

“We just took too many penalties,” said freshman Kyle Van. “When we made mistakes, they capitalized. They wanted it more.”

The young Cyclones have been struggling all year on special teams.

An inability to score with the man advantage and the difficulties of clearing the puck and preventing the opposition to score on the power play has plagued Iowa State.

“We had some bad breakdowns,” said freshman Shawn Crawford.

“We just need to settle down. We are rushing our passes, which create turnovers. It felt like we were holding on to our sticks too tight,” Crawford said.

Mental mistakes have hurt at times. The offense had problems developing plays inside the zone and creating scoring chances. Ohio outshot Iowa State 31-24 on Friday and 32-22 on Saturday.

“Their goalie is a solid goalie, but I’m not sure if he even had to shower tonight,” Murdoch said after Saturday’s defeat.

Chemistry has also been an issue. With so many new faces this year, knowing where players are on the ice has been a challenge to develop.

“There’s just not a lot of communication out there,” said senior Mike Lebler, who scored the only goals for the Cyclones this weekend, both on the power play. “We’re just doing some wrong things, not playing smart.”

Murdoch was visibly upset after two rough losses. After declining to comment Friday, he said Saturday that, along with a “Black Monday,” practice this week would focus on the basics.

“I’ll demand that our coaches work on basic fundamental skills, which right now seem to be lacking,” Murdoch said. “Simple skills like passing and shooting. So we’ve got our work cut out for us.”

It’s harsh criticism for a team struggling to find its groove.

After splitting a series against Davenport University, the Cyclones hit the road and came away from the University of Illinois with another series split.

But this weekend, the defending Central States Collegiate Hockey League champion Ohio University showed, Murdoch said, why they are defending league champs.

“They beat us fair and square,” Murdoch said. “Our guys got to see what a defending CSCHL champion is like.”

Iowa State did not score an even-strength goal in either game. Ohio outscored the Cyclones 9-2 in the two games.

The losses are starting to pile up for the Cyclones. Still below .500, Iowa State travels to Kent State University next weekend before heading back to Ames to face Indiana University.

Despite the woeful outcomes, the guys still believe in themselves and the talent around them.

“You know, it’s really just staying focused but keeping things light,” said junior Brian Rooney.

“I think at times it’s really easy to think things are going down the toilet, but at the end of the day we just got to come back and keep playing hockey.”

Freshman Chris Cucullu said that while some minds aren’t in the best place right now, the ability to change that is there.

“We can definitely turn things around if we put our mind to it,”Cucullu said. “You know, really put in the effort.”

Murdoch knows his team.

He knows he has a lot more youth than in years past, so he is stressing to his team to play smart, team hockey.

“Don’t worry about the extraneous stuff, just focus on basic fundamental skills right now,” Murdoch said. “Because until those get better, the other things won’t get better.”

Golf

Women’s team hopes for strong play at Onion Creek this time and continue to improve.”

Laurence Herman has a lot of momentum coming into Onion Creek this year, after finishing in the top 10 in her last three tournaments.

“It feels pretty good. I had a rough start in the first tournament, but I’m glad I’ve been able to come back,” Herman said. “We’ve got one left, and I

feel pretty confident that we’ll do good again.”

She placed eighth at the tournament last year and broke the individual 54-hole course record with a 212. She is looking to improve upon that mark this time around.

“I want to win, but obviously everyone does. At least top five, but winning is my goal,” Herman said.

Also competing for Iowa State will be Kristin Paulson, who is coming off her first career top 10 finish in the Lady Northern Invitational. She was recently named the Iowa Women’s Golf Association’s player of the year. She had a successful summer of golf and has competed for the Cyclones in every tournament so far.

Iowa State is currently

ranked 27th nationally after finishing fifth place or better in every tournament so far this season. It is the program’s best start in recent history.

The tournament kicks off at 8:30 a.m. Monday for the first 36 holes. The final 18 will be tee off at 8:30 a.m. Tuesday.

Iowa State’s women’s golf team is heading to Austin, Texas, for Monday and Tuesday’s Challenge at Onion Creek tournament.

Iowa State broke several team and individual records at the tournament last year and will be hoping for another strong performance this time around in the final tournament of the fall.

“We played really well last year, so we are coming in with some good memories,” said coach Christie Martens. “I just hope that we all play well.

I hope that we can go out and play like we know we can play.

Playing good every round is what we are looking for.”

The team has had three weeks to rest and practice

since their last tournament — their longest break so far. The players are now anxious Herman to get back into competition, especially at Onion Creek, where last year they broke the course’s 54-hole record by 16 strokes with an 867. Additionally, Punpaka Phuntumabamrung shot a second-round 67, breaking the course individual record.

“We did pretty good in Texas last year — I think we can do better this year than last year because we have a greater team this year,” Phuntumabamrung said.

“I think we have a good chance to be in a good place. I hope that I can play well again

Tom Latham Listening to You | Working for You Tom Latham has heard Iowans loud and clear.

He shares their frustration with Washington—with the reckless spending and out-of-control federal government.

That's why Tom voted against the massive Wall Street bailouts—all of them.

He voted against the stimulus, because government can't create jobs by wasting your tax dollars.

He voted against the big government takeover of health care, because your care is too important to be trusted in Washington's hands.

Tom cast these votes because he believes there's a better way forward for Iowa.

Tom's agenda: ✔ ✔ ✔ ✔

Get Iowa back to work Stop the reckless spending Repeal the disastrous health care bill Cut taxes and red tape on small businesses

Fighting for a Better Way for Iowa PAID FOR BY LATHAM FOR CONGRESS
