reseason expectations aside, Iowa State will be going to a bowl game for the third time in four years this season. While the ISU football team has underachieved in many respects according to its expectations this season, its 6-6 campaign without giving up more than 35 points in a single game leaves something to be desired for one more contest. Selection Sunday is this weekend for the college football bowl season, so here are the odds of Iowa State’s logical options and the Daily’s official projection for where it will go.
Buffalo Wild Wings Bowl (Big 12 No. 4) TEMPE, Ariz. — 9:15 p.m. CST, Dec. 29 Projected opponent: Michigan State (Big Ten No. 5) Possible draw for Iowa State: Unlikely
Formerly known as the Insight Bowl, the Buffalo Wild Wings Bowl has provided fond memories to ISU fans from victories there in 2000 and 2009. But, whether the Buffalo Wild Wings Bowl, which is owned and operated by the Fiesta Bowl, will select Iowa State for a third showing is bit more of a stretch this time around. One or two teams will be in consideration for the Big 12 slot come Sunday, said Fiesta Bowl representative Kristen Pflipsen. From there, Pflipsen said the bowl will try to put the best matchup.
By Jake.Calhoun @iowastatedaily.com “It looks like, as of now, Iowa State might not be up high enough,” Pflipsen said. While there are a few other teams in the Big 12 that the bowl would prefer, Pflipsen said Iowa State’s fan turnout at its previous trips could play in its favor if it should be considered. But, as delicious as it sounds, the Buffalo Wild Wings Bowl will probably not be giving Iowa State a call this season.
Pinstripe Bowl (Big 12 No. 7) NEW YORK — 2:15 CST, Dec. 29 Projected opponent: Syracuse (Big East No. 4) Possible draw for Iowa State: Possible
Iowa State’s most recent bowl trip came in the form of a 27-13 loss to Rutgers in the 2011 Pinstripe Bowl. Pinstripe Bowl Executive Director Mark Holtzman said he would not bat an eye at the notion of inviting Iowa State for a second year in a row. “They did great here last year. The fans loved it; we have a very good relationship with the coach and the athletic director,” Holtzman said. “We’d be
crazy not to consider them.” While the school sold 77 percent of its allotment of tickets at last year’s game, questions arise as to whether fans would be willing to make the same trip a second year in a row considering how expensive New York City is. Maybe it’s a hunch, but West Virginia is a logical selection due to its closer proximity to Yankee Stadium that would incite a larger attendance than having ISU fans back again.
Heart of Dallas Bowl (Big 12 No. 8) DALLAS — 11 a.m. CST, Jan. 1, 2013 Projected opponent: Minnesota (Big Ten No. 8) Possible draw for Iowa State: Likely
Formerly known as the Ticket City Bowl, this game is played at the historic Cotton Bowl — taking the place of the Cotton Bowl game, which has moved to the $1 billion Cowboys Stadium. Numerous outlets are predicting Iowa State to go to the Heart of Dallas Bowl with many of them predicting Minnesota as its opponent. Interestingly enough, Iowa State defeated Minnesota 14-13 in the 2009 Insight Bowl. The only difference will be the standing of the bowl — the Insight Bowl, No. 4 on the Big 12 pecking order, decided to pick two 6-6 teams in lieu of better records because it provided a good matchup. The Heart of Dallas Bowl is No. 8 for both the Big 12 and Big Ten, so this game will be a little more grounded

The second open forum to determine the next dean of the College of Engineering has ended with Mark Law presenting his case.
By Mike.Randleman @iowastatedaily.com
Law provided a local feel to his presentation as an ISU alumnus, receiving his bachelor’s degree in computer engineering in 1981. Introduced by David Holger, cochair of the dean search committee, Law “has worked here at Iowa State
and, [in the past, has] continued that way as chair of the honors program external advisory committee.” While consistently emphasizing his affection for ISU, Law drew prominently from his experience at the University of Florida, where he is the
associate dean of Academic Affairs. At Florida, he has taken pride in aiding and encouraging students who have been “exploring opportunities in business and entrepreneurship.

Police Blotter:
>>BOWL PROJECTION.p1 Ames, ISU Police Departments
The information in the log comes from the ISU and City of Ames police departments’ records. All those accused of violating the law are innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
Nov. 10 Richard Garcia, 19, 4912 Mortensen Drive Unit 312, was arrested and charged with possession of a controlled substance and possession of drug paraphernalia (reported at 10:07 p.m.). Emily Herkenhoff, 20, 120 Lynn Ave., was arrested and charged with public intoxication, possession of a false ID and minor on the premises (reported at 12:33 p.m.). Natalie Peterson, 21, 111 N. Sherman Ave., was arrested and charged with unlawful possession of prescription drug and public intoxication (reported at 11:14 p.m.).
possession of drug paraphernalia at South 16th Street and University Boulevard (reported at 6:29 p.m.). Brian Copley, 18, 2204 Martin Hall, was arrested and charged with possession of a controlled substance, possession of drug paraphernalia, and underage possession of alcohol at Martin Hall (reported at 11:55 p.m.). Taylor Bleeker, 20, 2204 Martin Hall, was cited for underage possession of drug paraphernalia at Martin Hall (reported at 11:55 p.m.).
in terms of hype. At press time, representatives from the Heart of Dallas Bowl, which is owned and operated by Conference USA, did not return any requests for comment. Of these four bowl games, this one seems to make the most sense. Iowa State already draws good attendance to bowl games as it is, but since there are 19 Cyclones from the state of Texas, this would only increase the team’s chance at having another good turnout.
Meineke Car Care Bowl of Texas (Big 12 No. 6) HOUSTON — 8 p.m. CST, Dec. 28 Projected opponent: Purdue (Big Ten 6) Possible draw for Iowa State: Unlikely

“They’re starting companies fresh out of their undergraduate phase; they’re going to medical school, to law school.” He would like the theme of diversity to be extrapolated to Ames, which will encompass the department as a whole. “Diversity drives innovation. If you have a large network, ... you’re going to generate better ideas.” Implementing this strategy is also critical as it is necessary to “integrate that diversity into the team, ... into the department and, [as a result,] you’re a very inclusive environment as well as being ... diverse.” This environment will “encourage creativity, leadership and teamwork, to be unafraid, to be bold and [to] take risks.” Law proposed the concept of STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Math). This would provide for a cooperative relationship with the College of Design to enhance what it can really do. He went on to mention that this environment is also ripe for fostering solutions to global issues. He cited the adage “Think local, act global” to
Ian Perotte, 28, of Nevada,was arrested and charged with serious misdemeanor assault and public intoxication at Knapp Street and Lynn Avenue (reported at 2:22 a.m.).

Xiaorui Ma, 22, 3709 Tripp St. Unit 223, was arrested and charged with driving under suspension (reported at 9:04 p.m.). Joseph Call, 25, 617 Ken Maril Drive, was arrested and charged with public intoxication (reported at 2:07 a.m.). Alex Koons, 20, of Des Moines, was arrested and charged with public intoxication (reported at 2:33 a.m.).

Nicholas John Van Vickle, 20, 4315 Maricopa Drive, was arrested and charged with possession of a controlled substance at Lincoln Way and Sheldon Avenue (reported at 12:25 a.m.). Jack Mentzer, 19, of Waukee, was arrested on a warrant charging him with simple misdemeanor harassment at the Armory (reported at 7:49 a.m.). An individual reported the theft of a bike at Linden Hall; the incident occurred since Nov. 8 (reported at 11:49 a.m.). An individual reported the theft of a laptop computer at Parks Library (reported at 5:12 p.m.). Nisa Salmen, 18, 211 S. Sheldon Ave. Unit 3, was arrested and charged with driving under suspension at Hyland Ave. and Lincoln Way (reported at 1:25 a.m.). Brian Seieroe, 22, 111 Lynn Ave. Apt. 902, was arrested and charged with operating while intoxicated in the 2300 block of Lincoln Way (reported at 1:22 a.m.).
Formerly known as the Houston Bowl, the Meineke Car Care Bowl of Texas is a possible landing location for Iowa State in a few bowl projections. The reason this remains a possibility is that it could provide an equal matchup between 6-6 teams in Iowa State and Purdue, which have never faced each other. Bob Burda, Big 12 associate commissioner of communications, said there is no

provision in the conference that prohibits teams with worse records from going to better bowls, so the trend certainly has a chance of continuing in Iowa State’s case. But, is Iowa State legitimately in the running for the Meineke Car Care Bowl? That remains unknown; Heather Houston, the bowl’s executive director, did not return the Daily’s multiple requests for comment. But, when it comes down to it, the Meineke Car Care Bowl may pick a team like Baylor or Texas Tech since Iowa State hobbled into the postseason after losing three of its last four games of the season.
Wild cards Independence Bowl — SHREVEPORT, La., 1 p.m. CST, Dec. 28 The crazy Independence Bowl is always a wild card. Representatives from the Independence Bowl were in the press box at Iowa State’s season finale against West Virginia last Friday.
Music City Bowl — NASHVILLE, Tenn., 11 a.m. CST, Dec. 31 Iowa State could occupy one of the
Atlantic Coast Conference’s bids as an atlarge selection if Oklahoma fails to secure an at-large bid in the Sugar Bowl.
Military Bowl — WASHINGTON, 2 p.m. CST, Dec. 27 Since Army is not bowl-eligible, a team from either the Big 12 or MAC would contractually fill its slot.
Prediction: Heart of Dallas Bowl Call it a hunch, but the Heart of Dallas Bowl seems like the most logical choice to give Iowa State a call come Sunday. One major positive for Iowa State is its fan base — ISU fans travel well and have been known to draw good attendance for neutral-location games in the past. With 19 players hailing from the state of Texas, that boost in attendance from family will likely compel the Heart of Dallas Bowl to consider Iowa State. All uncertainty aside, the Heart of Dallas Bowl is the most likely destination for Iowa State at this point.

assist in his point. “Biorenewables are something that makes a lot of sense ... Wind energy is another one [in Iowa].” In conclusion, he said, “The legacy I would want is about the people. What excites me as an alumni of volunteering and
being involved in the program is meeting with engaged students. ... They have great educational experience. ... There’s innovative research making an impact. If we do those things, alumni support will follow.” Not only does he want the college to have the “best staff,”
but he wants an “environment of ... getting involved with clubs and activities.” To draw from the College of Engineering’s slogan, he desires a campus where all will “Be > Greater Than You Imagined.” He hopes all could achieve this during his tenure.

Event
ISU leaders to share personal experiences By Nate.Bucsko @iowastatedaily.com Students looking for inspiration or simply an excuse to listen to some of the rising student leaders and faculty talk about their passions can stop by the Sun Room in the Memorial Union at 8 p.m. Thursday. “What Matters to Me and Why,” an Iowa State event organized by the Student Union Board Awareness Committee, is a forum for a variety of students and faculty to share their experiences through various organizations, teams and activities that helped shape who they are today. Moses Bomett, one of the students asked to speak at the event, is a senior in economics at Iowa State. When Bomett was a freshman at Iowa State, he decided to start an organization, Hope for Africa, Inc., as a way to give back to his
homeland. Bomett lived in Kenya from age 2 until he was 14, and he initially started the club at Valley High School in West Des Moines. Bomett said that he will be sharing his experiences with the audience Thursday in the hope that even one person listening will be inspired to make a difference. “I am going to talk about the story of the organization and how far it has come since we started it here almost four years ago,” Bomett said. “The hope is that the students and faculty in attendance will then be inspired to [do] something of their own.” Bomett also said that many people have the misconception that they must dedicate tons of time or money to a cause to make a difference, but anyone can have an impact with even a modest contribution. One student-athlete will give a different per-
spective on her experiences. Meaghan Nelson, senior in kinesiology and health and an All-American member of the women’s track and field team, will be talking about how important family is to her. “I have grown to appreciate my family more and have at the same time developed a family away from home in my team here at Iowa State,” Nelson said. “I have realized that what is most important is not necessarily all about doing well but how you go about things and how you treat the people in your life.” Nelson also said that through the years, she has changed her mindset from one of rushing through school and being independent to now appreciating everyone in her life that has helped make her who she is today. Michael Bugeja, director of the Greenlee School of Journalism, was chosen to speak as
a faculty member. However, Director Bugeja would not divulge what he would be speaking about. “You’ll have to attend the presentation to find out what matters most to me,” he said. But, he did say that this event is a “great service to the student body.” Bugeja also said that the main idea behind the event is all about bringing people closer to one another. “I think this event not only is positive but also one of unity,” Bugeja said. “Bringing together speakers from all walks of life, literally, and showcasing valuable truths that will inspire us all.” Bugeja said he was “immensely impressed” with the planning of the event. The event will be facilitated by Briana Haguewood, awareness director of the Student Union Board.
Project
Virtual world raises ethical awareness in science By Meredith.Keeler @iowastatedaily.com Students in science and engineering are getting more practice at making ethical, science-related decisions due to a new project called SciEthics Interactive. “SciEthics Interactive is a virtual 3D world. A virtual 3D world is a place where students can do things that they would never normally be able to do in real life. … This is all done through a computer interface,” said Larysa Nadolny, assistant professor in the School of Education and team member, whose primary goal is to design the simulation. SciEthics is meant to raise ethical awareness through technology. “The goal of SciEthics is to promote and to integrate the learning of science content and the raising of ethical awareness in science practices through the use of engaging technology,” said Matthew Pierlott, co-principal investigator and associate professor of philosophy at West Chester University in Pennsylvania. SciEthics Interactive is based off of a National Science Foundation grant. With grants such as this one, there is a principal investigator who is in charge of the project. Joan Woolfrey is the principal investigator of the project, and the two co-principal investigators are Pierlott and Seth Kahn. All are faculty members in the Department of Philosophy at West Chester University in Pennsylvania. Nadolny played an important role in creating the virtual environment with the help of computer science students and a graphic design student. It all started with Second Life, a virtual world online, Nadolny said. Nadolny and her team used an open source version of Second Life called OpenSim. “In OpenSim, all you have is ocean. I had a team of students that helped me design everything,” Nadolny said. Nadolny also worked with a faculty member who has expertise in the science and data collection used in the island to make sure it is authentic. “So far, it has taken about two years to create each island,” Nadolny said. Creating different virtual islands not only takes time, but also takes the help of many different people. “We have just moved out of the piloting stage. We piloted the first island at three different universities, two in the United States and one in South Africa,” Nadolny said. The piloting stage is where professors and their classes try the program to see if it works before it is released. Although it is designed primarily for students, SciEthics is available to anyone. “Just a few weeks ago, we released it to the public so anyone

can take the file of what we made and put it on their own virtual world and use it,” Nadolny said. The release event was held Nov. 14, and it was live on Google Plus, so anyone could join in. The virtual island is called TransGen. “In TransGen, students take on the role of someone who has just been hired into a company that genetically modifies salmon,” Nadolny said. “They have to learn background information, explore hidden areas of the island and collect data.” The release event fueled interest from different universities, and the feedback from students has been positive so far. “Ethical training has increasingly been recognized as important in industries and in academia,” Pierlott said. The National Science Foundation gave this grant because they believe the methods that teachers are practicing are not necessarily working. “They want more innovative ideas on how to experience ethical dilemmas in the sciences, and that is why they funded us... We had a creative idea, and they thought it might work,” Nadolny said. Although the SciEthics project is brand new and is already expanding, it has yet to be used at Iowa State. “We are working with the Bio Ethics program to have it be an activity with students in genetics,” Nadolny said. “We don’t just want to help people in science and engineering classes; we want to help everybody have these kind of experiences.”

Don’t make big deal of Dead Week
Dead Week is almost always a controversial topic among students at the end of a semester. We often publish columns, editorials and news articles outlining Dead Week policies. The Government of the Student Body also makes Dead Week an issue, especially in the recent past. When Jared Knight and Katie Brown, now president and vice president, respectively, of GSB, made it a campaign priority “to strengthen the Dead Week policy,” according to a Daily article of Feb. 13. When Knight ran as the vice presidential choice of Dakota Hoben (the president of GSB in 2011-2012), Dead Week was also a campaign issue. That year, “part of their classroom emphasis [was] implementing a Dead Week policy,” according to a Daily article of March 1, 2011. Back in 2009, Jonathan Turk, who won his race for president of GSB, Dead Week was at least in his sights, if not a priority. If you go back through the Daily’s website, articles, editorials, and letters mention, clarify and criticize Dead Week going back to 1995. For the unfamiliar, Dead Week is the week before finals week, in which professors “are supposed” to assign less homework and allow more time before cumulative final exams test students’ mettle, retention, and sheer sanity. The problem is, the rules of Dead Week are guidelines, not policies, and the week’s name comes from GSB, not the university. Instead, by continually raising the issue but not bringing to an actual resolution by adding it to university policy and monitoring whether professors uphold it, students’ time is being wasted. Our position toward Dead Week is one of ambivalence. In our view, college is supposed to be hard. We say, bring it on. Scaling the heights of five term papers and finals all in one or two weeks is a thrill few students experience outside a roller coaster ride. And who wants to do that in December anyway? There is something to be said for giving a long train of assignments and examinations a great intellectual heave, and succeeding in moving the mountain. We believe it is a good thing for students to push themselves. How else will they find their limits? At some colleges and universities, the concept of a “dead week” actually exists in reality, not the figment of student government members’ minds. Classes actually are canceled so students can study for exams and write term papers, and quiet hours reign in the residence halls throughout the entire day. Good for them. For Iowa State, however, that is not the case. Editorial Board

Banning horse meat no help A
horse is a horse of course of course. Or, at least, so said the theme song for “Mr. Ed.” People around the country and around the world have very contentious views on what being a horse means, however. A great many people view horses as inherently different than other livestock, garnering a greater respect than animals such as donkeys and cattle. Just looking at product lines such as “My Little Pony” can attest to this, not to mention claims such as that of New Mexico Attorney General Gary King, who said, “Horses are different and should be treated differently.” King was speaking in regard to a horse slaughterhouse proposal in Roswell, N.M. Horse slaughter, or the harvesting of horse meat for human consumption, strikes a great many people as wrong, in fact. A 2006 Public Opinion Strategies poll showed that 69 percent of Americans surveyed did not approve of human consumption of horse meat. The poll also found that 71 percent of those surveyed thought horses were “a part of America’s culture” and should not be treated as livestock. Horses, historically speaking, were not raised because they make good friends. They were a beast of burden used for travel, as a farming and ranching tool, for sporting events, and yes, even for food. There have even been some claims that horses are uniquely unsuited for slaughter. As the ASPCA said in a February 2012 press release, the “biology of horses makes them difficult to stun.” Who could argue against such compelling “science”? Certainly, there were some real problems with horse slaughter in the United States. In 2007, the last remaining horse-processing plant in America was closed down, due to local disapproval and heavy pressure from national animal rights groups. Until that plant was closed, there was strong
By Phil.Brown @iowastatedaily.com evidence for mistreatment of horses in the United States. Horses all over the nation were underfed, many were not given adequate health care, some were transported inhumanely, and a great many others were generally neglected and abused. Thankfully, when we finally came to our senses and stopped treating horses like meat, all of this stopped. Oh wait. It didn’t. Despite the complete lack of horse slaughter within the United States today, horses are still being mistreated. The Humane Society of the United States acknowledges that with respect to criminal neglect charges, the most common way to take action against animal cruelty, horses comprised 7 percent of cases in 2007, after U.S. horse slaughter was stopped, 6 percent in 2006, and 8 percent in 2005. Current figures available at www.pet-abuse.com show that horses comprise 1,096, or 14 percent, of the 7,627 recent cases of animal neglect/abandonment. This does not mean that the end of horse slaughter in the United States necessarily caused a flood of mistreated horses, but it also does not point to horse slaughter as the cause of horse abuse. Claims that allowing horses to be used for human consumption in the United States encourages their mistreatment and promotes abusive ownership simply have not been proved true. Yet that is the impetus for the numerous legislative proposals that would legally ban horse slaughter in the United States. Proponents such as the Humane Society cite numerous cases of mistreatment found while horse slaughter was occurring, commonly while horses were being transported for slaughter. Such transport does not end with a nationwide ban on horse

slaughter, though. Every year horses are transported to slaughterhouses located on the borders of Canada and Mexico, which buy American horses and sell the meat to overseas buyers. Many of these slaughterhouses have been found to use less-than-humane techniques in killing their stock. That would be a very good reason to argue against slaughterhouses in the United States, except any slaughterhouses here would be regulated by our government. Any instances of inhumane practices could actu-
ally be addressed, as they cannot be currently. All occurrences of animal abuse are terrible, terrible things. Animal cruelty is a disgusting reality, but it is just that — a reality. Banning the human consumption of horse meat and the regulated slaughter of horses does not change it.

Protect funding for HIV/AIDS treatments Now that the 2012 election cycle is over and the dust has settled, Congress and the rest of Washington have boxed up the campaign posters, shut down field offices and facilitated the last conference calls with donors. But we, as a nation, face an extremely critical fork in the road. With the so-called fiscal cliff looming a mere 36 days away, a partisan Congress has drawn the skirmish lines, dug in and hunkered down for a budget battle of the ages. In 2011, Congress passed legislation (the Budget Control Act) that requires $1.2 trillion in budget cuts over the next 10 years, if Congress does not reach a debt-reduction deal by Dec. 23. On Jan. 2, 2013, the U.S. government will go over the “cliff”, and automatic spending cuts will be applied to all aspects of the government budget, in the form of sequestration of parts of the budget. It is estimated that sequestration will result in an 8.4 percent cut in federal spending across the board. This will have a devastating impact on global health funding, but specifically to HIV/ AIDS initiatives. How will sequestration affect global HIV/ AIDS programs? Global health programs will see a cut of nearly $689 million in the first year, which is a reduction of nearly 10 percent from
the fiscal year 2012 budget. More than 350,000 people will be denied AIDS treatment, and more than 62,000 people will die of AIDS who would have otherwise survived; 122,000 children will be orphaned, 111,000 fewer HIV-positive pregnant women will receive treatment to prevent transmission to their newborns and 21,000 more infants will be infected with HIV. How will sequestration affect domestic AIDS programs? Domestic HIV/AIDS programs will receive budget cuts of $538 million in the first year; 9,400 patients receiving treatment through the AIDS Drug Assistance Program (ADAP) could lose access to their medication with a $77 million cut to ADAP; 5,000 households will be affected by the $27 million cut from the Housing Opportunities for People with AIDS Program; and 400 people living with HIV will not be diagnosed because of a $65.2 million cut to HIV prevention services. Global health spending has to be preserved. We are too close to the tipping point of creating an AIDS-free generation. A budget that cuts global health must be a deal-breaker. An 8.4 percent cut to global health programs would have devastating affects in the target communities while, at the same time, providing a 0.6 percent decrease to our budget deficit. With our
international assistance programs as a percent of federal spending dropping from 2.75 percent in 1965 to less than 0.5 percent in 2010 and our defense spending increasing three percent in 2012 to $1.030-$1.414 trillion, we need to seriously reassess our priorities. If the United Kingdom was able to ringfence global health in their austerity budget, the United States has the means to preserve these programs and save these lives. As Iowans, we have an especially crucial position as Sen. Tom Harkin is on the appropriations subcommittee of Labor, Health, Human Services and Education, allocating funds to both global and domestic health programs. Call your Congressman/woman and let them know you care by writing a letter to your hometown newspaper urging for no budget cuts to touch global health initiatives, or schedule a lobby visit with your state representative. Even here on campus you can join with the ISU Global Health & AIDS Coalition (isughac@gmail.com) in advocating for global health initiatives. We have the ability to End AIDS Now.

America’s values match its demographics’ An editorial from the Iowa State Daily Editorial Board recently stated that “It has become apparent demographics and demographic changes drove this year’s election cycle.” The Editorial Board agreed with Mitt Romney that Barack Obama won because he showered the electorate with “gifts” such as “student loan interest forgiveness, contraceptives, health care and the like.” This premise is wholly rejected by progressive Americans. Surely our country is becoming more diversified with a record number of Americans of non-European descent voting in

Would legalizing all drugs be a good idea? Recreational use laws present new considerations
S
hould all drugs be legalized? What about marijuana? With the recent legalization of recreational use of marijuana in Colorado and Washington the larger issue of the legalization of all drugs in the United States has come into question. Supporters who voted to take measures to legalize marijuana in these states argue that legalization will generate tax revenue, decrease black market activity by moving trade into the public sphere, and alleviate the waste of tax resources being used by law enforcement. Furthermore, supporters, such as voters — typically younger and more liberal — who just voted in favor of legalizing weed in Washington and Colorado, say that current drug enforcement unfairly targets minorities and that current laws (those similar to Prohibition) will ultimately lead to greater crimes due to the demand for illegal drugs. However, those that oppose the legalization of drugs say that criminalizing recreational drugs helps lower rates of use and abuse, which decreases related addictions and problems. These voters tend to be older and more conservative. The question, then, is: Given this argument, would the United States be better off legalizing the use of all recreational drugs? To explore the implications and issues surrounding the legalization of drugs a debate on the motion “Legalize Drugs” was held by a panel of experts on Intelligence Squared U.S. Profiles of the panel experts can be found
By Kristen.Daily @iowastatedaily.com in the article “Should We Legalize Drugs?” written by NPR staff. Those arguing for the motion included Paul Butler, criminal law scholar and professor at Georgetown University Law Center, and Nick Gillespie, editor-in-chief of the online and television platforms for the libertarian magazine Reason. Those arguing against the motion included the former chief of the Drug Enforcement Administration, Asa Hutchinson, and Theodore Dalrymple, retired prison doctor and psychiatrist. To frame the debate the founder of Intelligence Squared U.S., Robert Rosenkranz, explained that those in favor of legalization have a strong argument because the current policy and “War on Drugs” has failed. When explaining the supporters’ opinion Rosenkranz said, “We’d be better off placing reliance on treatment, on rehabilitation, on education. ... The costs of creating a criminal industry are huge; not only the obvious costs of enforcement, of prison, but we create a situation in which the leading role models in inner city communities are drug dealers in which a disproportionate number of black youth languish away in prisons.” He went on explain the opposition’s argument which is that the choice of using recreational drugs cannot be left up to the individual because the consequences of drug use are too great, and the individual can have a huge impact on society, so the choice should be regulated by the government. Ultimately, the winners of the debate were Butler and Gillespie, supporters of the motion, with a victory of 58 to 30 percent. (The remainder was undecided.) Personally,
I would agree with the supporters of the motion given the argument. However, both sides raised several important concerns. One of the main tenets of the debate was the racial issues and prejudices in drug enforcement. Butler, a former prosecutor, told his personal testimony of his experience with drug enforcement in the community. He said, “Maybe my work as a prosecutor would’ve been worth the enormous social cost if it was getting drugs off the street, but we all know the war on drugs doesn’t do that. No country has ever found a way to prevent people from using drugs. The United States locks up more people than any country in the history of the world.” We have 5 percent of the world’s population and 25 percent of the world’s prisoners. It costs us billions of dollars that we just cannot afford, and it’s just as easy to get drugs now as it always has been.” Butler went on to discuss the disparity between black and white incarceration rates, which are unfairly higher for blacks. Of course, not all of these incarcerations are drug related, but approximately one-quarter of criminals in U.S. jails or prisons have been convicted of a drug offense (Prisons & Drug Offenders). In addition to this, the legalization of marijuana was widely debated. Interestingly, the opposition argued that if marijuana is legalized across all 50 states, all other drugs would have to be legalized. Asa Hutchinson, who is opposed to legalizing drugs, said, “This debate is not about marijuana. It is drugs, plural. And to be consistent in your philosophy of libertarianism, which my colleagues are consistent, they recognize it doesn’t do any good to legalize one. You have to legalize
all... because that’s the only way you’re going to change the environment of enforcement, to change the environment of police and so on. And so the debate tonight is about legalizing all drugs.” Of course, this was the issue being debated — the legalization of all drugs — but why not start with legalizing marijuana in the states and see what the effects are before legalizing all other recreational drugs? Traditionally the states have been testing ground for policies before they are enacted at a federal level, and Colorado and Washington have set a precedent for this motion. Gillespie made a seemingly valid argument when he compared the use of marijuana to alcohol consumption: “So when we are talking about what drug legalization would look like, first off, it’s all marijuana use. Vanishingly small

percentage of people use drugs other than marijuana. But let me just say... There’s not a single dimension across which pot is more dangerous than alcohol, which is pretty much all you need to know about a postprohibition American society.” After hearing the arguments and considering the implications of the motion, is
the legalization of marijuana okay? Should all recreational drugs be legalized? Is this “war” worth fighting, or are we merely facing a social reality that should be legally accepted?

Big 12 stays at 10 during conference realignment Conference realignment is at it again. On Wednesday, the Atlantic Coast Conference added Louisville after one of its founding members, Maryland, jumped to the Big Ten Conference in a move that would go into effect in 2014. This caught the eyes of many in the Big 12 Conference because Louisville was reportedly one of its few candidates if it should expand beyond its current structure of 10 teams. Even though talk is still circulating about what the Big 12 should do with other conferences such as the Big Ten (Maryland, Rutgers), ACC (Louisville) and Big East (Tulane, East Carolina) expanding, Big 12 Commissioner Bob Bowlsby still contends that the conference is content at 10 teams. “You and others may think I’m crazy,” Bowlsby told CBSSports. com on Wednesday. “I think no one has proven to me that larger is better. … If we had the opportunity geographically or financially for something that clearly moved the needle, we’d be on them.” The Big 12’s current grant of rights deal, which was enacted in September and is reportedly worth more than $1 billion, has locked its 10 teams into a 13-year TV deal that provides the financial incentive to abstain from leaving. Under the deal, the Big 12 would retain any television rights of a school if it decides to leave for another conference. By Daily staff

By Alex.Halsted @iowastatedaily.com For the third time in four seasons, the NCAA tournament will make an appearance at Hilton Coliseum.

days [if we win].” After falling to 10-7 in late October following a loss to Texas on the road, the Cyclones quickly turned the season around. Iowa State ended the season on a 10-match winning streak following that loss, propelling itself to a seed and the chance to host. Each of the last two seasons that the Cyclones have hosted the first and second rounds of the tournament — in 2009 and 2011 — the team has gone

Cyclones host two rounds of NCAA
By Dylan.Montz @iowastatedaily.com
It has been a roller coaster of a season for Iowa State. After beginning the season 10-7 and some uncertainty with its identity as a team, the No. 15-seeded ISU volleyball team now finds itself hosting the first and second round of the NCAA tournament. The Cyclones (20-7, 13-3 Big 12) began the season with losses to Florida State and Tennessee in Knoxville, Tenn., in five set matches, and a sweep by Illinois in Champaign, Ill. “I think having so many tough competitions early on forced us to address some issues and figure out some problems early on that some teams may not have had to address until later on in the season,” said ISU coach Christy Johnson-Lynch. “We messed around with some different defenses but that was because we were forced to do that. We had to be creative and figure out some things.” In some of the tough early season losses, which also includes a five set loss to Syracuse at home, the Cyclones were forced to find a team identity. That is when, middle blocker Jamie Straube believes, the team began to come together even more. “It can be a grind at times,” Straube said of the

tough losses. “I think we got a little bit frustrated, but everyone did such a good job of lifting each other up.” Since having a 10-7 overall and 4-3 in the Big 12, Iowa State is on a 10-match winning streak including its most recent win against No. 3 Texas.
Due to the Iowa State’s schedule and wins this season, the team is currently No. 18 in the RPI ranking and a No. 15 in the NCAA tournament allowing it host the first and second round.

Team excels despite Poppens’ absence By Alex.Halsted @iowastatedaily.com Just like always, Chelsea Poppens stood and high-fived one of her teammates following an ISU 3-pointer on Tuesday. It wasn’t any different, Poppens and her teammates often cheer on the team when on the bench. On Tuesday night against Drake, however, Poppens wasn’t in uniform as the senior forward was forced to sit having sustained a concussion last week. With its Preseason All-Big 12 First Team player sidelined, the No. 24 Cyclones still cruised to an easy victory against in-state rival Drake 87-45. After the game, some were curious how noticeable the absence of the team’s star was after the sharp performance. “We definitely noticed,” said forward Hallie Christofferson. “She really helped us from the bench, I could hear her from the floor. She wasn’t playing, but she was still with us.” Poppens sustained the concussion last Friday against Loyola Marymount while going after a loose ball when the team was in the Bahamas. The senior missed the team’s next game against Illinois on Saturday before sitting out

a second consecutive game against Drake on Tuesday. Behind Christofferson, who scored 20 points and brought down 10 rebounds in only 24 minutes, the Cyclones managed to get by just fine. Even with a different look, the team was still plenty impressive. “That’s the No. 24 team in the country,” said Drake coach Jennie
Baranczyk as she stepped to the podium following the game. “Iowa State is going to have a really great year, I think they’re going to do a great job in the Big 12.” In the two full games without Poppens, Iowa State has beaten Illinois and Drake by a combined 60 points. Christofferson, in that span, has averaged 19 points, 7.5 rebounds
and has shot 68.8 percent from the field in only 23 minutes per game. “Especially with Pop not around, we need [Hallie] to be that kind of person to want the ball, shoot the ball, score the ball,” said ISU coach Bill Fennelly. “The last 32 minutes she’s played, she can’t play any better.” The team can’t play much better, either, and Fennelly said he is pleased with how it has performed under the circumstances. Guard Nikki Moody has 31 points and 16 assists in the last two games. When the team does finally reach full strength, Baranczyk said the Cyclones will be a team to watch. “You talk about Chelsea Poppens, and she puts a whole other dimension to this team and we didn’t even see it tonight,” Baranczyk said. “They’re getting confidence without her right now and I think that’s only going to help them.” The goal is to have Poppens back when the team plays another in-state rival Iowa next Thursday. Fennelly said the team should know more about her condition on Monday. “She’s probably getting worried because we’re playing so well without her,” Fennelly joked. “She’s a lot better player than she is an assistant coach.”

Hockey
Cyclones switch players to different formation By Robert.Hein @iowastatedaily.com Al Murdoch, coach of the Cyclone Hockey team, recognized that his team needed a change and it came not a moment too soon. Heading into their second game against Lindenwood, the Cyclones were riding a four-game losing streak while looking for a way to turn it around. Murdoch decided to make a change, moving sophomore forward James Buttermore from right wing to center and substituting freshman forward Georgi Iskrenov for junior forward Chris Cucullu. The results were nearly instant. The redesigned line consisting of Buttermore, Iskrenov and sophomore forward J.P. Kascsak scored on its first shift against Lindenwood. “[Buttermore] has adjusted well. He’s a natural centerman, a good skater and good at faceoffs,” Murdoch said
of his sophomore forward. While the team eventually lost the game 3-2, it returned to the ice the following week to sweep West Virginia and put a halt on the losing streak. Buttermore, who is second in team goal-scoring and on a threegame streak, shared what it takes to reach this level of play. “It’s just the hard work in practice,” Buttermore said. “If you can put the puck away in practice, it’s going to seem a lot easier in a game. If you struggle in practice, it’s going to be hard to carry over into a game.” In addition to noting that the line’s primary role is offensive production, Kascsak said he is excited due to the chemistry within the line. “We just know where each other are,” Kascsak said of his linemates. “We’re not trying to do anything too crazy.” Murdoch also expressed his excitement, as well as his high expectations, for this newly renovated line.
>>TOURNAMENT.p6 we were better throughout the whole season, but right now I think we really keep getting better every match.” Part of that is because of freshman outside hitter Andie Malloy, who was inserted into the lineup late in the season. In the last five matches, Malloy is hitting above .300 with 71 kills, including double-digit kills in four of them. “It’s just all starting to click,” Malloy said of the team. Iowa State and its first round opponent, Fort Wayne, had just one common opponent this
“I want that line — Buttermore, Kascsak and Iskrenov — to have a plus-three, plus-four every game,” Murdoch said. “That means score three, four, five goals a game.” Kascsak and Buttermore were linemates last season and have carried their chemistry to this season. In addition to Buttermore and Kascsak’s noted chemistry, Buttermore is back in his natural position of center, which he played for the entirety of last season. “I’m liking that a lot more,” Buttermore said. “We’re starting to click, and everyone’s starting to come together.” Heading over the hump of the midway point in the season, Iowa State is hoping to finish the season strong, create the strongest lines and give itself the best opportunity to advance in the tournament. The new line of Buttermore, Kascsak and Iskrenov looks promising in doing just that.
season. Both teams faced South Dakota State during the regular season. While the Cyclones swept South Dakota State on the road with many of its subs seeing the court, Fort Wayne went 1-1 against its conference foe, sweeping them in one match and losing in five sets in the other. Despite past success in the early rounds and Fort Wayne coming from a smaller conference, the Cyclones aren’t looking ahead. “You don’t want to overlook anybody in the tournament,” Landwehr said. “You don’t really want to do that, because anybody can beat anybody, especially in the tournament.”
File photo: Shane Tully/Iowa State Daily James Buttermore gets the puck behind the net and attempts to pass it to his teammates for a score Nov. 10 at the Ames Ice Arena.
Last season, the Cyclones had hopes to finally move further into the tournament to the Final Four. At times, that goal may have become too much of a focus. “I’m going to keep using the term ‘It’s not enough,’” said libero Kristen Hahn. “Last year, I think we were so focused on wanting to get to the Final Four that we cut ourselves short. “The more you talk about a goal, the more realistic it becomes.” North Carolina and California will kick off the action at 5 p.m. Thursday at Hilton Coliseum. Iowa State will take on Fort Wayne following that match at 7:30 p.m.

Hilton Coliseum earning a reputation for volleyball
Libero Kristen Hahn was pleased with how her teammates made each other better every day in practice and how the season has turned around for the Cyclones. “I remember talking to my seniors at one point and reminding them that we can finish the second half of the Big 12 undefeated to get to where we need to be,” Hahn said. “The fact that we did that was amazing.” For Johnson-Lynch, 2012 has been one of the most enjoyable seasons she has had as a coach and is proud of how her team continued to have faith in each other when things were difficult. “They’ve worked their way into this seed and to the bid to host,” Johnson-Lynch said. “We certainly weren’t in this position two months ago. Give a lot of credit to our team for getting us here”
For the second consecutive season, Iowa State will be hosting the first and second round of the NCAA tournament. Hosting is an awesome feeling for Johnson-Lynch and not having to travel “takes a lot of stress away.” The advantage of playing in Hilton Coliseum is not one that the Cyclones take lightly. “We have a huge home court advantage, I think we’ve shown that over the last several years,” Johnson-Lynch said. “We feel very, very fortunate. That’s why this last month has been so great and critical because we played our way into this [No. 15 seed].” At I-P Fort Wayne’s last home match, Iowa State’s first round opponent recorded an attendance of 639 fans. At the Cyclones’ last home match against Texas, 4,396 fans were in attendance. “Everybody’s focused on how tough it is to play here,” said

I-P Fort Wayne coach Kelley Hartley Hutton. “I bet it is tough to play here, but how exciting for our student athletes to get to play in front of that many people, whether they’re from Ames or Fort Wayne. We’re really excited about this environment.” Johnson-Lynch said that when she talks about Hilton Coliseum and the ISU volleyball fan base, there is a certain curiosity from the person she is talking to and what makes Hilton Coliseum a special place for volleyball. “We now have a reputation as being one of the best places to play in the country,” Johnson-Lynch said. “I hear that from a lot of people. I think teams, when the announcements came out, were disappointed they didn’t get to play at home; excited that they get to come to Iowa State and play. Before the match [against Texas] even started, looking around and seeing what Hilton has become; that was a pretty cool feeling.”

New twist on Wonderland By Rahemma Mayfield Ames247 writer In ISU Theatre’s latest production of “Alice in Wonderland,” imagination is key. The play is an adaptation of Lewis Carroll’s
classic story, and the version was written by the show’s director, Matt Foss. But unlike most productions of the show, Foss has chosen to use larger than life puppets to represent some of the memorable Wonderland characters. “Because of the nature of the play, we needed a lot of flexibility,” Foss said. “Rather than big
sets, so that we could cover a lot of distance [in the plot], we thought this would be a great way to do it.” The production team also decided to form the large puppets completely out of “trash” materials. Foam noodles, old football and golf gear and blue tarps are only a few of the items used

Dan Poppen, sophomore in performing arts, both acts and plays violin and ukelele in the upcoming ISU Theatre production of “Alice in Wonderland.” The show opens this weekend at Fisher Theater.
How long have you been playing the violin?
I’ve been playing the violin since I was five years old, so I guess that makes it 15 years now.
What was it like creating the music for “Alice”?

Really exciting. Tony [LaBat, the show’s piano and guitar player] was mostly the idea generator, I just kind of ran with some of the things he was giving me. We’ve appropriated some songs by popular artists like Sufjan Stevens and the Carolina Chocolate Drops, and so we riffed off their melodies and crafted some of our own out of that.
to create some of the characters. Kathleen Hoil, senior in performing arts and the actress portraying Alice, said the puppets have been helpful in developing the numerous animals and creatures in Wonderland.
ALICE.p9 >>
Have you created music for any shows in the past? I did the music for the small project, “Gruesome Playground Injuries,” in the alley behind Burger King.
Would you like to continue working with music and theatre?
Absolutely. I think sound design and music, especially combing music and plays and making them one theatre art, I think that’s the end goal and I would love to be a part of that.
In Alice, you also play the White Knight. What’s that like to learn your lines and do the music? I think they go hand-in-hand. The whole thing is we’re trying to tell the story and help Alice through all of this. And whether I do that by talking or doing something, or climbing, or showing her my inventions or playing music, I think it all goes toward the same goal. When I think of that end goal, memorizing and switching between those two just happen.

Music: ‘Rare Chandeliers’
Game: ‘Assassin’s Creed 3’
Movie: ‘Chasing Mavericks’
By Sam Abrahms
By Devin Pacini
By Nick Hamden
Queens-born Action Bronson has teamed up with famous producer, The Alchemist, to release their mixtape, “Rare Chandeliers.” With his foundation set as a respected former gourmet chef in New York City, Action Bronson has developed into a punch-throwing lyricist. He is a rare talent, casually developing layer upon layer of rhyme and lyricism that will leave your brain panting and trying to catch up. The world Bronson creates is unknown to mankind, and definitely has more in common with Rambo, the mafia, and a Sunday rerun of Looney Tunes than it does with anything musical. If guns, wizards, prostitutes and obscure athlete references draw you in, then this is the mixtape of the year for you. With classic production from The Alchemist, this tape flows with the grace of a dimly lit cigar room. It’s too great for words.
“Assassin’s Creed III” did a great job improving the game play from the previous games, as well as adding in new things to keep players interested. The sequences are fun and challenging, and with the addition of new weapons and a new combat system, the game is a lot more fun to play. The new combat system allows players to continue being on the offensive more as they were in “Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood” and “Assassin’s Creed: Revelations,” but also makes the player think more strategically with their offensive plans. When normal missions aren’t enough, naval battles are now added so that you can captain a ship.
“Chasing Mavericks” is the true tale of Jay Moriarty’s first conquered giant wave and is a feelgood story about never giving up, even if your life isn’t great. But that is all the movie offers. Gerard Butler plays the mentor and friend, but even his charisma is not enough to carry the movie. Instead, the film features mostly home and high school drama, with some surfing scenes sprinkled in. The giant waves at the end crashing across Northern California create great visuals, but at that point, it is hard to care. I think the problem lies in the sport. Over the last four years there have only been bad surfing movies. What is so hard about surfing movies for them to include a great story and exciting action scenes? Even though “Chasing Mavericks” is biographical, it is a story we’ve all seen before and offers nothing new.

>>ALICE.p8 “There are a lot of nonhuman characters in Wonderland. The puppets help a lot with the creation of those ideas, and also with characterization,� Hoil said. “It’s an interesting way to show the different types of characters without just having actors in funny costumes. It aids in the world that we’re creating and in the ideas that we want to show and the story we want to tell.� This new adaptation also combines parts of both Carroll’s “Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland� and the book’s sequel, “Through the Looking-Glass.� Foss said he used the sequel as an organizational tool to help develop the plot of the performance. “[The performance] uses the chess game in the ‘Looking Glass’ stories to organize a journey for Alice, where she meets the different characters in each square as she travels from being a pawn to a queen,� Foss said. Along with the puppets and inspiration from the Carroll stories, the group has also worked to create music as a way to tell the story. Tony LaBat, senior in music performance, and Bella Ruse, an Ohio-based band, created an original score for the show, and members of the cast occasionally grab their instruments to create a band on stage. When writing the score, LaBat said he used the individual traits and personality to create a theme for each major character in Wonderland, including the Cheshire Cat, the White Rabbit and the White Knight. “If the character is kind of slinky, like the Cheshire Cat, the music will reflect that. It kind of gets jazzy at times, as opposed to the Jabberwocky, which is really gigantic and ominous. For the music there, you will hear a lot of expansive and powerful chords,� LaBat said. With a combination of puppets and music, Foss and the group agreed that the main goal of the show is to spark imagination in the audience. “We hope that people of many different ages will have a meaningful experience. It’s a lot about how curiosity and imagination is important to hold on to as you get older,� Foss said. “We left a lot of blanks for the audience, in regards to how we build the world, so the audience’s version of Wonderland will be particular to their version.�

Fun Facts In early drafts of the Back to the Future script, the time machine was built out of an old refrigerator. Golf courses in America take up as much land space as Rhode Island and Delaware combined. The average life span of a Major League Baseball is 7 pitches. Three months after Charlie Chaplin died his corpse was stolen by two Swiss mechanics in order to extort money from the family. The robbers were captured and Chaplin’s body was found eleven weeks later. To prevent further attempts, he was reburied under concrete. Al Capone’s business card reportedly said he was a furniture salesman. Oddly enough, the very first high heels were made for soldiers in the 1500s who needed a way to keep their feet snugly tucked into their stirrups while riding on horseback. Tire mogul Harvey Firestone gave President Calvin Coolidge a pygmy hippopotamus in 1927. In fact, many of the pygmy hippos in US zoos are that one’s descendants. The first American-made condoms were manufactured from vulcanized rubber and were meant to be re-used.
