God without religion Group focuses on worship, fellowship, rather than rules

Campustown group to ask for funding By Kayla.Schantz iowastatedaily.com The Campustown Action Association (CAA) will be requesting $3,000 from the Ames City Council to fund a summer intern for this upcoming summer. “With a summer staff person, we are certain we will be able to build a stronger CAA and accomplish many [objectives],” wrote CAA President John A. Haila in a letter to Mayor Ann Campbell. “This position will help CAA work toward achieving the Ames City Council’s goal to rejuvenate Campustown.” If approved, the internship position would be awarded to Chandra Peterson, senior in political science. Peterson’s responsibilities would include applying for grants, building an active membership base, improving communication and planning and coordinating CAA events. “There is more than enough work to keep Ms. Peterson busy as a full-time intern from May 16 through August 19,” Haila said.

By Thane.Himes iowastatedaily.com The Rock, a student branch of Stonebrook Church, believes religion is a lie. But that doesn’t mean they don’t believe in God. The group meets one Thursday a month at Zeke’s, and also meets in small groups more frequently. While the large group meeting is essentially a nontraditional, informal church service, the small group meetings focus on fellowship, communion, teaching and prayer. “We try to model ourselves after Acts 2:42,” said Brian Peck, graduate student in electrical and computer engineering and president of The Rock. “And they devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and the prayers.” -Acts 2:42 The Rock’s members believe in simply having a good relationship with God, and any other traditions that stem purely from religion are left aside. “Religion often has rules just for rules’ sake,” said Paul Johnson, ISU alumnus with a bachelor’s in computer science and pastor for the large group service. “They’re not pushing God, they’re pushing religion,” Johnson said. While the traditions of religion aren’t practiced, The Rock’s faith in God is unwavering. “Thank you for your sacrifice, God,” said Jacob Moss, lead vocalist of The Rock’s band, which plays at the large group service. “Because of that, I can sing tonight,” Moss said. Johnson said that too often, religion turns one’s faith into a points system. The Bible contains verses in which lust is said to be equivalent to adultery, and anger to murder. “Can anyone truly live up to those things?” Johnson said. “You’re basically sinning every second, if that’s the standard. You deserve hell for that?” Johnson said one can never say, “God, I’ve followed all your rules.”

thinking, ‘For you, it’s wrong. For me, it’s OK,’” Johnson said. “If people make the rules, somebody always gets marginalized. I truly believe we need to base it on something other than ourselves.”

“The rules we follow are the ones that get us right with God,” said Greg Wheelock, another member of The Rock. “God calls us to have a relationship with him. That’s what we’re about.”

Iowa remembers involvement in war By Frances.Myers iowastatedaily.com Tuesday marks the 150-year anniversary of a milestone in America’s history: the Civil War. In order to celebrate the yearly anniversary, a re-enactment will be held at Fort Sumter in Charleston Harbor, S.C. Beginning April 12, 1861, and ending April 9, 1865, the Civil War claimed the lives of more than 625,000 people and is considered to be the “bloodiest war in United States history,” said David Bulla, associate professor in journalism and communication. The Civil War is an important event for citizens of Iowa to remember, Bulla said, because “it was right in Iowa’s own backyard. The line of slavery was split on right above Missouri and right below Iowa.” “ I n my opinion, there were probably two main events that Graphic: Samantha Barbour/Iowa State Daily helped shape

America: the Revolution and the Civil War,” Bulla said. “The Revolution set up our country and broke us away from Great Britain. However, this ball had some imperfections, with slavery being one of the biggest imperfections. The Civil War would act as the turning point for this.” The Civil War began before dawn April 12, 1861, at Fort Sumter in Charleston, S.C., according to the official Civil War website. On April 10, Confederate Gen. G.T. Beauregard demanded the Union forces surrender. However, Union Gen. Robert Anderson refused. Two days later, the Confederates opened fire on the fort. Unable to fight back effectively, Anderson’s troops were forced to surrender. This marked the end of the first battle of the Civil War, making it the first victory for the South. The war was officially started. “Regionally, Iowa was right in the heart of this,” Bulla said. “No state was more loyal in the Civil War than Iowa. The Republican party won all the elections in Iowa during this time, and Iowa sent more than its fair share of soldiers.” Bulla also said there were two influential aspects the Civil War had on Iowa. First, the Transcontinental Railroad was created during this time, with Council Bluffs being a point on the First Transcontinental Railroad. Second, Iowa State came into existence in the midst of the Civil War. In 1862, Iowa was the first state to accept the terms of the

The red light rating Iowa State holds from the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education isn’t cause for much alarm for the Office of University Counsel. Keith Bystrom, associate counsel for the office, attended the lecture presented by Adam Kissel, vice president of programs for FIRE, Thursday and believes that most of the logic behind the university’s ratings are based off misinterpretations of the rhetoric used in the policies and a lack of context for the things that are included in them. By providing some context for each of the policies flagged by FIRE, Bystrom explained that the policies are created and maintained to benefit members of the university and create a safe environment. The university’s discrimination and harassment policy received a red light rating because of the examples list that is included, which was interpreted by Kissel to designate

Sri Lanka

Journalist speaks of media’s exile Editor’s note: This is the first in a three-part series about Sri Lanka and its government’s treatment of media. Part one shares Poddala Jayantha’s experience as a Sri Lankan journalist and the torture he endured.

By Kaleb.Warnock iowastatedaily.com “They threw my unconscious body in a ditch and left me to die.” Poddala Jayantha is a Sri Lankan journalist who was nearly killed because of his investigative reporting with regard to alleged human rights violations executed by the Sri Lankan government. He spoke of his experience last Thursday as part of the First Amendment Day celebration in the Cardinal Room of the Memorial Union. “I stand here today as a political asylum as a Sri Lankan journalist,” said Jayantha through a translator. “I was forced to leave Sri Lanka to save my life. There are so many other journalists who live there in fear. Most of them are living in exile.” In his presentation, Jayantha told a room full of future journalists of the role and influence of media in Sri Lanka and how the struggle has caused extreme censorship of the media. He speaks primarily on behalf of the Tamil minority against the human rights violations enacted during the civil war between the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam and the Sri Lankan government.

Expect to see Tom Cruise wailing his way through “Rock of Ages.” The actor is prepping for his role as aging, bad boy rocker Stacee Jaxx by training with Axl Rose’s vocal coach. “He’s been studying with — seriously — Axl Rose’s voice teacher like five hours a day,” director Adam Shankman said. “The prognosis is more than excellent.” In fact, Shankman attended Cruise’s first session and was so wowed by what he heard that the men actually high-fived. “That was a big moment,” explains Shankman.“That voice lesson where he opened up and suddenly let loose and was really great. The two of us in concert breathed a collective sigh of relief to the tune of dancing around his living room.” As Marquee previously reported, the ‘80s-set “Rock of Ages” tells the story of small-town girl Sherrie (Julianne Hough), who moves to Hollywood to be an actress. She takes a job at the Bourbon Room, owned by Dennis Dupree (Alec Baldwin), and catches the eye of Drew (Diego Gonzalez Boneta).

Liam Neeson cut from ‘The Hangover Part II’ He replaced Mel Gibson in “The Hangover Part II,” and now Liam Neeson has been ousted from the upcoming comedy. Variety reports that Neeson’s cameo as a Bangkok tattoo artist has been cut, and actor/director Nick Cassavetes has taken over the role. Call it a case of bad timing. According to director Todd Phillips, the scene immediately following Neeson’s cameo was snipped from the film, which meant that Neeson’s scene had to be re-shot to help fill in the gaps and move the story forward. Unfortunately, Neeson was no longer available because he was in London shooting another film. Enter Cassavetes. “We were in a complete time crunch so I called up Nick and asked if he would do the part,” Phillips said to Variety. “He came in and crushed it and that is the scene that you will ultimately see in the film.”

‘Idol’s’ Pia Toscano: No record deal — yet Despite reports that “American Idol” cast-off Pia Toscano has been snapped up by Interscope Records, the former contestant said there’s no done deal yet. Still rebounding from her surprise exit from “Idol,” Toscano said she appreciates the support she has received from those who were stunned by her elimination. “I mean, it’s overwhelming,” she said. “When I was on that stage on Thursday night, I’m thinking to myself, ‘It’s over, it’s coming to an end, I mean, it’s so soon, I’m not going to be able to perform next week, I’m going to miss my friends,’ I had no idea that I was going to get this support. No idea.”

Morrill Act. The Morrill Act was signed into law by President Abraham Lincoln on July 2, 1862. This provided “each state with 30,000 acres of federal land for each member in their Congressional delegation. The land was then sold by the states and the proceeds used to fund public colleges that focused on agriculture and the mechanical arts,” according to the Library of Congress official website. “The Civil War and Iowa State University are connected at the umbilical cord, so to speak,” Bulla said. “Iowa was everywhere in this war. Whoever we are now, we really deﬁned ourselves as people during this time. “Equality was something that Iowa believed in and still believes in and it didn’t go to the back seat. No, it went straight to the front seat.”

The CAA is comprised of approximately 25 organizations and individuals that work together to coordinate events and cleanup within the Campustown area. Over the past year the CAA has raised $4,600, which it plans to use to fund future community events and further promote membership. “We are excited about the reception and participation we are seeing in CAA,” Haila said. “We look forward to continuing to develop and grow CAA to beneﬁt the Campustown area and Ames community,” Haila said.

Bystrom pointed to the sentence before the examples list, which classiﬁes harassment as “a form of discrimination if it is unwelcome and sufficiently severe or pervasive so as to substantially interfere with a person’s work or education,” to clarify that not all jokes and pranks would be classiﬁed as harassment. “What our policy is saying is that you might cross the line, it depends on what you do,” Bystrom said. “Any kind of harassment is very contextual, and [we’re] looking at what

TOKYO — Workers at Japan’s tsunami-stricken nuclear power complex discovered a small fire near a reactor building Tuesday but it was extinguished quickly, the plant’s operator said. The setback was a further sign that the crisis at the plant has not abated, and came amid reports that Japanese nuclear regulators were raising the severity of the accident to the highest level, 7, on par with the Chernobyl disaster in 1986. Tokyo Electric Power Co., which operates the disabled Fukushima Dai-ichi plant, said the fire at a box that contains batteries in a building near the No. 4 reactor was discovered at 6:38 a.m. Tuesday and was put out seven minutes later. It wasn’t clear whether the fire was related to a magnitude-6.3 earthquake that shook the Tokyo area Tuesday morning. The cause of the fire is being investigated. “The fire was extinguished immediately. It has no impact on Unit 4’s cooling operations for the spent fuel rods,” said TEPCO spokesman Naoki Tsunoda. The plant was damaged in a massive tsunami March 11

that knocked out cooling systems and backup diesel generators, leading to explosions at three reactors and a ﬁre at a fourth that was undergoing regular maintenance and was empty of fuel. The magnitude-9.0 earthquake that caused the tsunami immediately stopped the three reactors, but overheated cores and a lack of cooling functions led to further damage. Engineers have been able to pump water into the damaged reactors to cool them, but leaks have resulted in the pooling of tons of contaminated, radioactive water that has prevented workers from conducting further repairs. Aftershocks Monday briefly cut power to backup pumps, halting the injection of cooling water for about 50 minutes before power was restored. On Tuesday, Japan’s nuclear safety agency had decided to raise the severity level of the crisis at Fukushima to 7 — the highest level and equal to the 1986 disaster at Chernobyl in the former Soviet Union. Associated Press writers Eric Talmadge in Soma, Yuri Kageyama, Mari Yamaguchi and Mayumi Saito in Tokyo, and Martin Crutsinger in Washington contributed to this report.

mission of inquiry with a severely limited mandate.” Many of the threats were realized, Jayantha said. “The ﬁrst shots after the war was over were ﬁred at the journalists and free media,” Jayantha said. “They virtually crushed the free media institutions, and they only have the pro-government media to assassinate the character of the people who oppose them, or they actually use death squads to kill them.” As a matter of fact,

Jayantha was the victim of a death squad, and he suspects they were motivated to silence him for speaking out against human rights violations. “I was tortured and my left leg was broken,” he said. “And today I’m walking with the assistance of steel rod that has been placed there. They poured acid on me. They also cut my beard and hair and put it in my mouth and forced me to inhale, which caused severe problems in my lungs subsequently. They thew my uncon-

scious body in a ditch and left me to die.” Following the June 2009 attack, he was in the hospital for nearly a month and was unable to walk for six more. His case is not an exception, as many other journalists have been attacked and several have paid the ultimate price. Jayantha said since this administration took over in 2005, ﬁve leading media institutions have been burned down, 35 media employees have been murdered and six journalists

have been kidnapped. Five have been released due to public opposition, but one is still missing and has been since January of 2010. There has been no investigation to many of these cases, including Jayantha’s, and his attack remains unsolved. “Every atrocity committed against a journalist and the media since April 20, 2005, to Dec. 8, 2009, the day that an editor of a newspaper was murdered, is being gradually covered by the dust that in-

vaded through time,” Jayantha said. However, he continues to speak out against the Sri Lankan government and hopes to continue to ﬁght for human rights in his home country. He called on journalists and the international community to ﬁght for free speech and seek the truth and hold the government accountable for its actions. “That’s why I’m appealing to journalists. ... Don’t let this freedom die.”

happens, what are the circumstances and does it reach the level where it’s harassment.” This applies to the Internet usage policy, which received a yellow light rating because of its prohibiting of sending unsolicited emails. There are circumstances that require the university to get involved when such emails are received, often having to do with relationships, Bystrom said. The yellow light rating that FIRE gave to the Facilities and Grounds Use were made because of a misinterpretation, Bystrom said. In Kissel’s lecture Thursday, he explained that the policy received a yellow light rating because it requires that anyone planning to use the designated public forum areas tell the university if they want to exercise free speech. This is only the case if they plan to use the area before or after 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. Monday through Friday, if the event will be held within 100 feet from buildings that

normally hold classes, or if a crowd of more than 50 people is expected, Bystrom said. Bystrom said the policy is in place to allow normal activities to take place without disruptions that interfere with the mission of the university, which is to educate students. “If you’re going to amplify and be louder than what a normal person could say with their voice, then it increases the likelihood of disrupting our mission, which is to educate and do research here on campus,” Bystrom said. Throughout various First Amendment Day activities, Dylan Boyle, president of the Leo Mores Chapter of the Society of Professional Journalists and senior in journalism and mass communication, collected signatures on a petition to rid the campus of free speech zones, and make the entire ISU campus a free speech zone. After a conversation with Bystrom about the policy, Boyle said the group

needs to look further into the issue before taking any more action with its petition, which received between 70 and 100 signatures. “A key point with the petition was that we were demonstrating the right to petition [provided by the First Amendment],” Boyle said. FIRE’s right to interpret schools’ policies is yet another right provided to them by the First Amendment, Bystrom said. “We have a number of communications from FIRE and similar organizations, and it does cause us to look at our policies, and we have,” Bystrom said. “Evaluating our policies is an ongoing thing, and there may be some changes in wording.” Overall, Bystrom felt that

Kissel’s ﬁnal message was a valuable one for students; to be informed, speak up and participate in the marketplace of ideas that is their college campus. If students have is-

sues with any of the policies in place at Iowa State, he encouraged them to take their concerns to the Government of the Student Body or the Dean of Students Office.

Truck driver pleads guilty in drifter’s death By Alan Scher Zagier Associated Press

Airports preparing for biggest version of 747 yet By Chris Hawley Associated Press NEW YORK — The biggest version yet of Boeing’s iconic 747 could soon be flying into airports that have never seen aircraft that large, raising hackles among some airport neighbors. Medium-size airports in Toledo, Ohio; Rockford, Ill. and Huntsville, Ala. are among those asking the Federal Aviation Administration for approval to receive the massive 747-8 freighter. Boeing expects to deliver the first planes to customers later this year. The airports are eager to grab a share of the air cargo market, which is growing faster than passenger traffic as the economy recovers. But some residents feel threatened by the big cargo planes currently flying over their homes and doubt Boeing’s claims that the

new 747 won’t be as noisy. “When the planes come over, you just want to duck,” said Mary Rose Evans, president of the Airport Neighbors Alliance in Louisville. Evans said her house is just 500 feet below the flight path of incoming cargo planes. The 747-8 is the biggest airplane Boeing has built, with a wingspan 11 feet wider and a body 18 feet longer than the current 747-400 model. Despite its size, Boeing says the 747-8 will be 30 percent quieter. The 747-8 is now in testing. It’s in the same new size category as the superjumbo Airbus 380. But while the A380 comes exclusively in a passenger version and flies only out of big international hubs like, the 7478 has attracted the attention of cargo companies that intend to fly into lesser-known airfields. For airports, cargo is big

business. Air freight rose 10 percent between 2009 and 2010, from 20.7 million tons to 22.9 million. Growth in cargo far outstripped passenger service, which rose only 2 percent during the same period, from 767 million travelers to 782 million. Getting approval for the 747-8 could woo more of that traffic, said Paul Toth, chief executive officer of the ToledoLucas County Port Authority, which operates the Toledo Express Airport. But residents have fought airport expansion in courts in Toledo, Louisville, Indianapolis and other cities. Some worry about the damage a large freighter could cause if it crashes. “Any mention of more planes or larger planes is a concern to us,” said Brenda Jay, a resident in suburban Indianapolis.

COLUMBIA, Mo. — A Missouri truck driver charged with his wife and three of his sons in the killing of an Ohio drifter was sentenced Monday to life in prison without parole. Chester “C.J.” Harvey said he was “totally responsible” for killing 20-year-old James William Boyd McNeely during the hearing in Boone County Circuit Court. Harvey pleaded guilty to first-degree murder, armed criminal action, kidnapping and abandonment of a corpse. Audrain County prosecutor Jacob Shellabarger said there wasn’t a plea agreement. McNeely’s frozen corpse was found in December 2009 in the refrigerated compartment of Chester Harvey’s parked tractor trailer. C.J. Harvey’s oldest son, Chad Harvey, has pleaded guilty to second-degree murder, kidnapping and abandonment of a corpse. His wife and two younger sons, who were 14 and 16, have been charged with murder. Three

other men have been charged as accomplices in McNeely’s kidnapping. C.J. Harvey said that he picked up McNeely while driving, and the two became embroiled in a drug scheme because Harvey’s family had fallen on hard times while caring for a child who required daily dialysis. Harvey claimed he had a falling out with McNeely after McNeely became violent with Harvey’s wife and three of his sons — a 7-yearold and the two teens charged in the killing. Investigators say C.J. and Chad Harvey brought McNeely back to the Harveys’ home in Laddonia, a town northwest of St. Louis, and restrained him on a mattress in the basement. The father and son told authorities that C.J. Harvey suffocated McNeely the next day with a trash bag while Chad Harvey and others wrapped wire around McNeely’s throat. Harvey has insisted his wife and juvenile sons are innocent. Associated Press writer Heather Hollingsworth in Kansas City, Mo., contributed to this report.

New Jersey

Rutgers students seek Springsteen to bolster image NEW BRUNSWICK, N.J. — Some students at New Jersey’s largest university believe Bruce Springsteen is their salvation. They have started a Facebook campaign called “Let’s Bring the Boss to Rutgers!” to counteract fallout from a recent appearance by Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi. The Rutgers University Programming Association paid the “Jersey Shore” reality TV star $32,000 to answer questions. That’s $2,000 more than Rutgers will pay Nobel-winning novelist Toni Morrison to deliver the commencement address. Freshman Daniel Oliveto

and junior Paul Tranquilli are spearheading the effort. Oliveto tells the Asbury Park Press Polizzi’s message to “study hard, but party harder,” was offensive. Rutgers University President Richard McCormick said school administrators asked students in charge of booking campus entertainment to reconsider their decision to bring Snooki to the school. He said students are allowed to book whatever entertainers they choose with the $6 per student per semester fee for such events. “We don’t censor who they invite — we don’t say you

can invite Lawerence Welk but you can’t invite Snooki,” McCormick said. Sen. Joe Kyrillos said students and their parents shouldn’t have to pay for entertainment they find objectionable. McCormick said the administration and the students have learned a lesson. The students hope Springsteen would either perform or have a questionand-answer session similar to the sit-down Snooki gave last month. Springsteen’s publicist has not replied to a request for a response. The Associated Press

Editorial

Is Branstad the next bully governor? Now that our eyes are unglued from the national political stage, following the Government Shutdown That Wasn’t, let’s focus our attention on Iowa for a moment. The next legislative nail-biter is the current game of chicken among the Republican-controlled House, the Democratic-controlled Senate and Republican Gov. Terry Branstad. In order for the Legislature to adjourn, which it’s scheduled to do April 29, differences between state budget bills must be resolved. Disputes over the bills range from what to do with Iowa’s preschool program to how to help boost the state’s economy. But perhaps the most fundamental issue is whether Iowa should approve a one-year or two-year state budget. Branstad’s message is that he will not accept anything other than a biennal budget. But that’s not stopping the Senate from testing his limits. The governor has said a two-year budget would allow the state to plan more efficiently. Democrats, on the other hand, worry about the ability to project tax revenue so far in advance. There is some legitimacy to this, because the Revenue Estimating Conference has yet to release any numbers for fiscal year 2013. We share the worry that implementing biennal budgeting in Iowa would take significant oversight from the Legislature and place it in the hands of the governor. According to the Mason City Globe Gazette, Branstad recently said of any one-year proposals, “I’ll veto it, and I’ll veto it, and I’ll veto it until we get a two-year budget and get the state on the right financial track.” This kind of attitude reminds us of what seems to be a growing trend among governors in the U.S. You can liken it to a surly teenager, who, after being told “no” by a parent, scowls and says, “I don’t care what you say. I’ll do what I want.” We’ve seen this from Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, who took negotiation off the table when he introduced anti-union bills in the Badger State. The protests in Madison, Wis. have drawn the most media attention. But other states feel just as strongly that their governor is not listening. See Govs. Chris Christie, Rick Snyder and John Kasich for examples. How much of this behavior can be attributed to the increased presence of a power-hungry governors with bullying tendencies — and how much of it indicates a trend in the way governors interact with legislatures and constituencies? And is Gov. Branstad on his way to becoming the next member of the “I don’t care what you say, I’ll do what I want” club? If his history as governor can serve as an indicator, then probably not. But this is 2011, not 1991. So, here’s hoping Gov. Branstad opts not to model his attitude after the bully governors that dominate the news of the day. Editorial Board

Space

Cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin was the first human to journey into outer space when his Vostok spacecraft completed an orbit of Earth on April 12, 1961. Courtesy photo: Wikimedia Commons

Honor exploration, wonder By Rick.Hanton iowastatedaily.com

Despite dangers, human spaceflight should continue Fifty years ago today, humans first flew into space, the vast frontier beyond our home planet. The first man in space was not an American, but a Soviet fighter pilot named Yuri Gagarin. He only flew one orbit of the Earth over about an hour and a half, but it was a giant leap for humanity and a feat that led to a great many technological advancements in the following years and decades. A few friends of mine have been working for months on Yuri’s Night 2011, a celebration of Yuri’s flight as well as spaceflight in general that has happened every April 12 since 2001, when Trish Garner, Loretta Hidalgo — now a Yuri’s Night Director and Zero-G Flight Director — and George T. Whitesides — now CEO and President of Virgin Galactic — set up the first series of parties around the world. This worldwide celebration marks both the first human spaceflight as well as the first flight of the space shuttle 20 years later in 1981. This year’s celebration of the golden anniversary of human spaceflight will have the greatest number of parties yet. The event’s website at yurisnight.net today lists more than 425 events in 70 countries. One of these events will be right here on the ISU campus. The Iowa State Space Society and the Iowa State AIAA groups have teamed up to do a few exciting things Tuesday night to mark the anniversary of human spaceflight. The festivities include screening a brand new

movie about Yuri’s flight, demonstrations from the Aerospace SSCL lab, an LED-lit night high-altitude balloon launch and late-night stargazing. If you want to find out more or to attend the event, click the link to the Facebook event listed with this article on iowastatedaily.com or simply stop by Howe Hall at 5:30 p.m. Tuesday. This will be a special year for this event, as the reign of the space shuttle as America’s premiere human launch vehicle is ending and a new era in spaceflight is beginning. We’re still unsure what will happen during the coming years of human spaceflight. Some say that we shouldn’t be flying humans into space when we could do the same work with robots like the Canadarms, Robonaut 2 or any of the other numerous probes and rovers humanity has sent out into the solar system and beyond. But I believe that human spaceflight will always have a place in our work to scientifically explore the world around us and expand the purview of human knowledge. Just because it is dangerous to fly into and do experiments in space does not mean that we should stop doing them. It is just as dangerous to go explore the bottom of the oceans or the inside of a volcano, and yet scientists do this type of work every day. Space exploration is just as important because it could be argued that even if we learned everything there is to know about the unexplored phenomena on our planet, there would be exponentially more knowledge to be gained among the other stars in our universe. Remember that if you stargaze on a clear, dark night, you will see thousands of stars, though

for each one of those stars, there are about 100 million other unseen stars in our Milky Way galaxy. Oh yeah, and there are another 100 million galaxies the size of our own. Once the space shuttle is retired and the last orbiters take their places in various museums across the country — the list of museums to receive a shuttle will also be released April 12 — there will be multiple vehicles available that could take their place. Space Exploration Technologies of Hawthorne, Calif., is actively testing its Falcon 9 rocket and just announced the — also human capable — Falcon Heavy rocket that can loft twice the capacity of the space shuttle into orbit. The Boeing Company is working on development of a simple commercial capsule that could be launched on multiple launch vehicles to carry crew to the space station. The Sierra Nevada Corporation is working on the Dream Chaser to do the same job and based its space plane on a concept started and then dropped by NASA. Congress, in a very anti-commercial way, is not especially keen on allowing private companies to provide NASA with transportation to and from the International Space Station or to loft NASA payloads to the moon or Mars. Many people I know have been trying to change this, but it is tough to sell NASA as a program that is more than a job program for congressmen and congresswomen’s individual states. Hopefully, the space industry’s current state of flux will eventually resolve into a strong plan for scientific exploration and discovery and we will have even more to celebrate in 2061 on the 100th anniversary of human spaceflight.

Celebrate human advances

By Molly.Sturgis iowastatedaily.com

Today marks 50 years of manned space exploration Everyone is at least a little nerdy on the inside. Some of us nerdier than others, and some of us try to hide it, but we all are. Not only should we accept that part of ourselves, we should embrace it and even be proud of it. Maybe this is a new idea, as of yet unexplored, for you. Well, fortunately, there is an opportunity to embrace that nerd in the form of a large social event. This evening, Tuesday, is Yuri’s Night. Now, you might wonder, who is this Yuri and why do we have a night to celebrate him? Yuri Gagarin was a Soviet cosmonaut, and exactly 50 years ago he left earth’s atmosphere and became the first man in space. Exactly 30 years ago, the United States and NASA launched the first space shuttle to start that program. Exactly 10 years ago, Yuri’s Night became an international holiday celebrating human space exploration. This year, on the 50th anniversary of the start of human space exploration, Yuri’s Night is being celebrated in more than 70

countries and on every continent except Antarctica. That’s right, you can’t escape it. We nerds are everywhere. At the beginning of the space race, in 1957, Sputnik had just been launched. The USSR successfully put a man — Yuri Gagarin — in orbit first, as well, and it became apparent to everyone that America was losing. Here’s what most citizens, both Americans and Soviets, didn’t know: the Soviet space program was not that awesome, but instead was made up of brave men who willingly stepped into flying death traps. Space is not safe and never will be, but for the sake of deadlines and a race, a lot of corners were cut. They traded quality for quantity and never admitted defeat. If there was a launch scheduled and it failed on the launch pad, they simply told people that they had postponed the launch, and photographs were edited to cut cosmonauts out as if they had never existed. The United States space program wasn’t perfect, either. Corners were still cut, sometimes for the sake of deadlines, and lives were also lost. However, the main difference was, if you were a voice

of dissent here, nobody would ship you off to Siberia. A story just came to light that, to me, exemplifies the Soviet program at that time. It is the story of the death of Soviet cosmonaut Vladimir Komarov. To celebrate the 50th anniversary of the communist revolution, a space mission was being hastily planned and constructed. Komarov was assigned to this mission. Yuri and a team of technicians inspected the space vehicle and found more than 200 structural problems, and Yuri himself wrote a document about it, recommending the mission be delayed. Nobody would pass it to those higher in command, however, as anyone who read the document suddenly was fired and/or had to take an unexpected trip to Siberia. Komarov knew it was dangerous and that he would likely die, but he refused to step down, as the replacement cosmonaut would have been his good friend and, at that point, national hero, Yuri Gagarin. The morning of the launch, Yuri apparently showed up and demanded to be put in instead of his friend. Komarov was still the one sent. As expected, there were 1,001 things wrong with the

vehicle, and Komarov never made it back alive. Ignore for a second how depressing that story was. Cosmonauts and astronauts have always been brave men and women who know the risks and are willing take them. They are people who are fascinated with space and what is beyond the atmosphere. They are people who boldly go, who exemplify the spirit of human exploration in all its forms. That is something worth celebrating. It is worth celebrating the countless advances the human missions to space have made in everyday life. It is worth celebrating the advances humans have made and the advances we will continue to make. It is worth celebrating how cool space is and how nerdy we are. If you’re interested in celebrating any of this, which you should be, come join the local Yuri’s Night celebration hosted by various aerospace engineering groups. It will be at Howe Hall from 5:30 p.m. to midnight, maybe longer, and will include movies, food, launching of a high altitude balloon, paper airplane competition and stargazing. Come meet others who are interested in celebrating awesome.

Gun control

Gov. Brewer must veto Arizona bill Warren J. Blumenfeld is an associate professor of curricu-

lum and instruction.

In just the last year alone, Arizona’s legislative and executive branches have led a number of emerging trends by passing precedent-setting legislation. Unfortunately, however, the direction they are [mis]leading is backward. In April 2010, the Arizona legislature passed and Gov. Jan Brewer signed Senate Bill 1070, which mandates that police officers stop and question people about their immigration status if they even suspect that they may be in this country illegally, and criminalizes undocumented workers who do not possess an “alien registration document.” Other provisions allow citizens to file suits against government agencies that do not enforce the law, and it criminalizes employers who knowingly transport or hire undocumented workers. Just one month after passing this country’s most restrictive and punitive anti-immigration law, the Arizona legislature passed House Bill 2281, signed into law by Gov. Brewer, targeting public school districts’ ethnic studies programs. Arizona Superintendent Tom Horne, a primary supporter of the bill, asserted that the law is necessary because, in particular, Tucson, Arizona’s Mexican American, African American and Native American studies courses teach students that they are oppressed, encourage resentment toward white people and promote “ethnic chauvinism” and “ethnic solidarity” instead of treating people as individuals. Now, coming as it does on the heels of the tragic shooting

in Tucson, resulting in the murder of nine people, and injury to 13 others, including U.S. Representative Gabrielle Giffords, the legislature of Arizona, by exercising its own distorted logic, has passed Senate Bill 1467, which requires community and state colleges and universities to allow both concealed and openly carried guns in their public rights of way, which would most likely include public roads and sidewalks adjacent to these campuses. Supporters of the bill claimed that this measure will go far in the direction of improving campus safety. We need to question, however, whether SB1467 would have eliminated or reduced the tragic incidents of gun violence on our institutions of higher education? For example: April 16, 2007: Seung-Hui Cho murdered 32 people and wounded a number of others in a dorm and a classroom at Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in Blacksburg, Va. before turning the gun on himself. Sept. 2, 2006: Douglas W. Pennington killed his two sons, Logan P. Pennington, 26, and Benjamin M. Pennington, 24, and then killed himself as he visited Shepherd University in Shepherdstown, W.Va. Oct. 28, 2002: Robert Flores, a student at Failing University of Arizona Nursing College and a Gulf War veteran, armed with five guns, killed three of his instructors before committing suicide. Jan. 16, 2002: Graduate student Peter Odighizuwa, who was recently dismissed from Virginia’s Appalachian School of Law, killed the college dean, a professor and a student. He also wounded three female students. Aug. 28, 2000: James Easton Kelly, a University of Arkansas graduate student who was dropped from his doctoral program, and John Locke, an English professor supervising his course of study, were shot to death in what appeared to be a murder-suicide.

Aug. 15, 1996: Frederick Martin Davidson, a graduate engineering student at San Diego State University, while defending his thesis before his faculty committee, drew a gun and killed three of his professors. Nov. 1, 1991: Gang Lu, a physics graduate student, fired into two buildings on the University of Iowa campus, killing five university employees and wounding two others before turning the gun on himself. And I still remember as if it were yesterday when I was a 19-year-old college student, the tragic events of Aug. 1, 1966, when a sniper, Charles Whitman, aiming his rifle from the observation tower at the University of Texas at Austin perpetrated an hour-and-a-half rampage killing 16 people, including his wife and mother, whom he murdered the previous night, and wounding 31 others. So I cannot understand the “reasoning” of the proponents of Arizona’s SB1467. To assert that having more guns on and around college and university campuses increases overall safety defies all logic. I commend the Democrats in the Arizona Legislature who voted as a block in opposition to SB1467 along with four of their Republican colleagues. To the Republican majority who passed this ill-advised legislation, I ask you now: How many more members of the college community will initiate gun violence, and settle disputes with firearms? How many more accidental injuries and deaths will result? How many more college-aged students will take their own lives? And what is the potential for mass tragedy now that we are legally whipping up an alcohol or drug-and-gun cocktail for college students? The insanity must end. Gov. Jan Brewer still has the opportunity to veto the bill, which she must do if she wishes to slow Arizona’s backward direction.

Rights

Pay equity remains an aspiration, not a reality Melody Barnes is President Obama’s do-

mestic policy adviser and the director of the Domestic Policy Council, which coordinates the domestic policy-making process in the White House. When President Kennedy signed the Equal Pay Act into law, the country was watching Lassie on television, listening to The Beatles on vinyl and paying 22 cents for a loaf of bread — a great deal has happened since the law was signed in 1963. Women now graduate from college as often as men, work in many fields previously closed to them and occupy leadership positions across the nation’s workforce. But even with those accomplishments, we have not come far enough. More needs to be done to ensure that our policies address persistent discriminatory employment practices, including unequal pay, so that college graduates entering today’s workforce have the pay they deserve. Tuesday marks Equal Pay Day and, unfortunately, pay equity is still an aspiration — not a reality. In 1963, women earned 59 cents for every dollar earned by a man. While that’s no longer the case, on average, women still make only about 77 cents for every dollar that men earn, and are more likely than men to live in poverty.

Even adjusting for variables like education level and time in the workforce, there remains a persistent wage gap between women and men, resulting in innumerable missed opportunities over the course of a woman’s lifetime. And the pay gap isn’t just a women’s problem; it’s a burden on families. In 2010, when women make up nearly half the workforce, two-thirds of American families with children rely on women’s wages as a significant portion of the family income. As we emerge from one of the worst recessions in American history, when families are struggling to pay their bills and save for the future, pay inequality only deepens that struggle and hampers our nation’s ability to fully recover. The last thing our families can afford is to take home less pay because of discrimination. President Obama understands that different pay for employees based solely on gender is simply wrong. That’s why the first bill he signed was the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act empowering female employees by restoring basic protections against pay discrimination. As Lilly explains, she not only lost approximately $224,000 in salary due to discrimination, but she lost significant amounts more because the lower paychecks were used to calculate her pension and Social Security benefits.

Lilly’s story is all too common. Studies indicate that by the time a woman is 25, she is likely to have lost the opportunity to earn thousands of dollars, as compared to her male counterpart. That could be a substantial reduction in her student loans or savings to buy a home. If we can equalize pay, by the time a woman is 45, she could earn tens of thousands of dollars more; and by the time she is 65, she could earn hundreds of thousands of dollars more than she would in an unequal system. She would no longer have to choose between paying her rent or medical bills; she could invest in a home and better afford her children’s education. And that does not account for the retirement savings and benefits she would have earned had she not encountered discrimination – resources that would further reduce the burden to her family and to society. We will all benefit when women are paid their equal share. President Obama cares deeply about this issue — as a father, as a husband and as someone who understands how much this issue impacts our nation’s economic well-being. That’s why the administration strongly supports passage of the Paycheck Fairness Act that rewards employers who treat their employees fairly, as opposed to those who boost their bottom line by discriminating against women. This impor-

tant piece of legislation almost made it to the president’s desk last year, and we urge Congress to pursue the fight for equal pay. Until Congress sends President Obama a bill he can sign into law, we’re doing all we can to support and empower women and smart employers. The White House convened an Equal Pay Task Force to educate employers and employees about their rights, ensure compliance with equal pay laws and encourage agencies to improve coordination and enforcement efforts at the federal level. The president also created the White House Council on Women and Girls, comprised of Cabinet members and heads of sub-Cabinet agencies; the Council is charged with advancing the rights and needs of women, including equal pay. In the past four decades, Lassie and The Beatles have faded from the forefront, but women are front and center when it comes to supporting family budgets and our national economy. They’re invaluable contributors at work — standing shoulder to shoulder with their male colleagues to get the job done — and, when that’s the case, they deserve to have a paycheck that reflects a job well-done, not gender bias. Most employers know that, but for those who do not, we need the Paycheck Fairness Act, and we need it now.

Lutz accepts assistant job at N.C. State

A comeback for Tiger Woods is good for golf

2010 and was an assistant for just one season. N.C. State hired coach Mark Gottfried to lead the Lutz Atlantic Coast Conference program last week, and Lutz accepted the offer to move back home and join Gottfried’s staff. A native of Hickory, N.C., most of Lutz’s family and friends were still located in the basketball-crazy

By Chris.Cuellar iowastatedaily.com Fred Hoiberg will be surrounded by several new faces in the 2011-12 season. ISU assistant men’s basketball coach Bobby Lutz accepted the same position at North Carolina State University on Monday, leaving the Cyclones with two holes at assistant positions this offseason. Lutz was a head coach at Charlotte for 12 years before joining Hoiberg’s staff in the spring of

state, and the move east will take him back home. “I coached against Bobby, so I know from ﬁrsthand experience what an exceptional coach he is,” Gottfried said in a statement released by N.C. State. “He has great ties in the state of North Carolina from his time at Charlotte and Pfeiffer and that will be a huge help for us in recruiting. That recruiting advantage, plus his on-theﬂoor coaching expertise, will make him an asset in every part of our program.”

Lutz was known for the experience he brought to ﬁrst-time coach Fred Hoiberg’s staff, but also said before the season started he would likely want to be a head coach again. Lutz was also an assistant for one season at Clemson during the 1985-86 season. T.J. Otzelberger is the only remaining assistant coach on Hoiberg’s team. Five transfer players that sat out Lutz’s only season are expected to play for the Cyclones in 2011-12.

By Jeremiah.Davis iowastatedaily.com For a large number of people, Sunday at the Masters was a letdown. Not because Rory McIllroy Greg Norman-ed away the 2011 green jacket, but because Tiger Woods came up short of one. The same Tiger Woods that was vilified and lampooned for the better part of the last two years was suddenly cheered again like nothing had happened. I found myself hoping he would complete the comeback, a positive feeling towards Tiger that I never thought I’d feel again. Because let’s not let one of the greatest final rounds of the Masters ever make us forget what Tiger is coming back from. He went through possibly the most embarrassing and drawn-out ordeals a person can go through. And it was all his own doing. It was Tiger who cheated on his wife multiple times and lied to her and the rest of his fanbase about who he really was. It was Tiger who had more mistresses than JFK at his peak. It was Tiger who bought into his own hype and got a little too big for his billion-dollar britches. It was Tiger who gave it all away. Yet it was Tiger who the majority of people were pulling for on Sunday. It was as though everything since that fateful day in November of 2009 had been either forgiven or forgotten — or both. The gallery at Augusta National was almost completely pro-Tiger, and the announcers were gushing over the 14-time Major champion. Granted, there is still a large number of people who haven’t forgiven or forgotten. Those people just weren’t nearly as vocal in social media or in the gallery I wrote two weeks ago that Tiger has lost his edge and is now just another golfer. Well, he almost made me eat crow on Sunday. After the front nine, all I could think was how crazy I could’ve been to say Tiger Woods was just average now. Then he threw a three-putt party on the back nine and couldn’t quite finish it off. He showed flashes of the old Tiger in those first nine holes and reminded everyone why they loved watching him play in the first place. He had that steely-eyed, “go-for-the-kill” look on his face that we’ve all seen so many times before. It’s the look that made him the most popular and recognizable athlete in the world. The truth is that golf needs Tiger to do well. His winless drought is like Dale Earnhardt Jr.’s in NASCAR or the Dallas Cowboys’ playoff drought was for so many years. When the stars and most popular teams in sports aren’t succeeding, the whole sport suffers. The years in the NBA when the Lakers and Celtics were average, people simply didn’t pay as much attention. Sure, those San Antonio Spurs teams that won in the interim were great, and had possibly the greatest power

Team prepares for round 2 Second matchup against central Iowa rival Drake

Iowa State

By Darrin.Cline iowastatedaily.com

Drake

(17-17, 1-5)

vs. (24-13, 10-1)

In the second installment of the battle for Interstate 35, the ISU softball team will head to Des Moines on Tuesday to take on central Iowa rival Drake. The Cyclones (17-17, 1-5 Big 12) defeated the Bulldogs (24-13, 10-1), 3-2, at the Tulsa Invitational in early March. “We already beat them once this year, and I believe we can beat them again and gain some more conﬁdence heading into this weekend,” said third baseman Erica Miller. Iowa State is hoping to use the rematch to catapult back above .500. The women are struggling as of late, having lost six of seven bouts in April. Defense and pitching have caused headaches for the Cyclones. Top hurler Rachel

Where: Des Moines When: 4 p.m. Tuesday Notes: Iowa State beat Drake 3-2 during the Tulsa Invitational in March. The teams will also play each other on Thursday in Ames. Iowa State has lost six of its last seven games.

Zabriskie has been dealt three consecutive losses. The four-pitcher staff has also seen its season ERA steadily rise to 4.11. The defense as a whole has struggled, allowing a staggering 12 runs per game during the recent seven-game stretch.

While the defensive errors have hindered any progress, an inconsistent offense has become a burden as well. With a “go big or go home” mentality, the team Varela has only surpassed the ﬁverun mark once. Despite the inability to score runs, the power hitters have made their presence known. Dalyn Varela, Miller and Tori Torrescano conMiller tinue to connect on long balls. Miller leads the way with nine, followed by Torrescano’s eight and Varela’s six. This exhibition of strength will need to be on display if the squad hopes to make it two in a row against Drake. The 2011 edition of the Bulldog squad is

Cyclones excel in Arizona

Seniorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s effort shines despite losing series

By David.Merrill iowastatedaily.com Senior Britta Christofferson brought a piece of ISU history back with her from Tempe, Ariz. Her hammer throw of 195 feet, 8 inches in the Sun Angel Classic broke the previous school record of 191 feet, 11 inches, set by Kris Curnyn in 1998. Breaking the record wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t necessarily a surprise to Christofferson. It was more of an expectation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I knew what the school record was,â&#x20AC;? Christofferson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That was my ďŹ rst goal I set for myself. I was going after it because I knew I could do that.â&#x20AC;? Christofferson hit the 195 mark during her warmup throws and then focused on hitting that mark during the actual competition. She had a friendly battle going with her male counterpart in the hammer throw â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Josh Koglin. The competition was to see who could break the school record ďŹ rst. Christofferson made sure the ďŹ rst thing she did after hearing the news was let her teammate know she had won the friendly contest. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He probably knew it was coming,â&#x20AC;? Christofferson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We just started this competition a couple weeks ago.â&#x20AC;? Koglinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s personal record is currently two inches farther than Christoffersonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s, so while she might have won the ďŹ rst

round, another battle is in the works. While they have not officially decided yet, the two are thinking about trying to see who can hit the 200-yard mark ďŹ rst. Coach Grant Wall was pleased to see his thrower break the school record. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t realize until the next day how much she broke it by,â&#x20AC;? Wall said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been looking great; weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been training hard and heavy. Britta has been here for ďŹ ve years just plugging away. Everything she gets, she earns.â&#x20AC;? Sprinter Alvin Garnett also had strong ďŹ nishes for the menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s side, placing third in the 400-meter dash with a time of 48.48. His 4x400 relay team of junior Jamal Currica, sophomore Brian Sandvig and junior Matt Brinkley ďŹ nished in ďŹ fth with a mark of 3:15.22. While the ďŹ nishes appeared strong on paper, Garnett feels that he and his relay team could have performed better. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I believe Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m a lot faster than that.â&#x20AC;? Garnett said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I believe Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m a 46 [second] runner, and I train like I am. I just have to do it in a meet. I

wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t happy with that.â&#x20AC;? Arizona experienced a colder-than-usual front during the meet. While weather conditions are important to the sprintersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; performance, Garnett said it wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t enough to really affect him during his events. He refused to use the

The ISU club baseball team caught a pleasant surprise from its weekend series against South Dakota. Despite dropping two of three games, the Cyclones were aided by solid production from senior shortstop Matt Coffey, who ďŹ nished the weekend with a batting average of .500 and three RBIs. Coffey shined in the Cyclonesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; 5-4 loss in the weekend ďŹ nale. Iowa State trailed 4-0 when Coffey stepped up to the plate in the bottom of the ďŹ rst inning with two outs. He saw a Bo Bruinsma fastball on a 2-1 count that he was waiting for, and took it over the left ďŹ eld wall to put the Cyclones on the board. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was the ďŹ rst time Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d seen that pitcher,â&#x20AC;? Coffey said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I got ahead in the count, and I knew the fastball was coming. He put it right where I wanted it, and I was just able to power it over the fence.â&#x20AC;? After taking a called third strike on the outside corner in his second at-bat, Coffey next stepped up to the plate in the bottom of the ďŹ fth. The Cyclones trailed at the time 5-2, and after Brock Martin lined out to third base, Coffey would take a 1-0 pitch

weather as an excuse. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was a little tight, but when it comes down to it, you just run,â&#x20AC;? Garnett said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Nothing is supposed to stop you. The weather affects your performance a little bit, but it all depends on how mentally strong you are and how your training has been.â&#x20AC;?

Menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s golf

Iowa State struggles in Indiana By Dean.Berhow-Goll iowastatedaily.com The slump the ISU menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s golf team is going through has continued after another tough tournament at the Adidas Hoosier Invitational. Finishing 8th out of 15 teams isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t a bad ďŹ nish. Finishing 8th out of 15 against teams that are not of your caliber is. The Cyclones ďŹ nished behind teams like No. 250 Butler, No. 199 Cleveland State, No. 182 Evansville, No. 177 Oakland and No. 142 IUPUI at the invitational. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s to the point now where our guys know what they need to do,â&#x20AC;? said coach Andrew Tank. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They know what theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re struggling with; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just a matter of them stepping up and working through it.â&#x20AC;? At the Adidas Hoosier Invitational, the Cyclones found some leadership in junior Nate McCoy. Firing rounds of 71, 69 and 72, for a 212 total, McCoy tied for fourth overall. Behind McCoy was sophomore Borja Virto, who tied for 24th with a 220, and behind him was ďŹ rst-timer Josh Bruder who ďŹ nished in 37th place with a 223. Bringing up the rear of the scoring for Iowa State was senior Nathan Leary who ďŹ nished in a tie for 43rd, and junior Tom Lathrop, who tied for 47th. McCoy had an outstanding tournament. His fourth-place overall ďŹ nish in the invitational marks the sixth top-10 ďŹ nish of his collegiate career. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is probably the most conďŹ dent I have been since the Spring Break trip,â&#x20AC;? McCoy said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;At one point, I was just mad at myself, because I knew I was better than how I was playing. Then it clicked, and I just put it into a another gear.â&#x20AC;? This week McCoy said he would be in Des Moines for practice. As for the rest of the team, it will all be qualifying and competing for spots at this coming weekendâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s meet. McCoy will be exempt from the qualifying the rest of the team will do because of his

top-5 ďŹ nish. With the third-straight poor performance, it could be a time for the team to change the way it has approached

McCoy

things or try something new. However, the coaches remain conďŹ dent that their team can turn things around. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a big challenge for me as a coach to not change what weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re doing just because weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re playing poorly,â&#x20AC;? Tank said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We just need to continue

with the things weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been doing all year, and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m conďŹ dent that they can play up to their potential.â&#x20AC;? The Cyclones will head to Iowa City this weekend to compete at the Hawkeye â&#x20AC;&#x201D; TaylorMade/Adidas Invitational.

Coffey said he and his teammates felt compelled to do their best with Peterson throwing so well on the mound after a rough first two innings. “He settled down after that first inning and held them to zeros,” Coffey said. “So it gave us batters a chance to show our support for him out there. We wanted to keep Petey in a close game since he was pitching so well in the later innings.” The team knew Coffey was a hitter, but didn’t know he could hit it with that kind of power. “I was a little surprised to see two bombs,” said ISU player-coach Jeff Peterson. “The wind helped a little bit, but it was great to see him make that kind of contact.” The good old methods of hard work and perseverance seem to have worked Coffey. “He deserves it,” Peterson said. “He’s one of our hardest workers on the team.”

Bolte will join former Big 12 opponents Shalee Lehning (Kansas State) and Brittainey Raven (Texas) on the Dream, who last season finished runner-up to the Seattle Storm in the WNBA Finals. Speaking of the Storm, Bolte will join 2009 ISU graduate Alison Lacey now of the Seattle Storm as the only two former Cyclones currently on WNBA rosters. The Dream will begin their season June 5 when they host the New York Liberty. Dan Tracy, Daily staff writer

forward of all time in Tim Duncan leading the way. But they weren’t exactly the most exciting, and didn’t have the history and tradition that teams like the Lakers and Celtics have. Every other golfer knows it, too. When he’s simply at a tournament, ratings and attendance go way up, and possible exposure for golfers and their sponsors go up. Make no mistake, companies may not want to sponsor him, but any company that sponsors a professional golfer wants him to do well too. Because if he’s at a tournament, television cameras are there. Those cameras will invariably catch a golfer wearing a hat with their product’s name or swinging their club. It’s that trickle-down effect that helps golf thrive. When he’s good, the sport is good. No two ways about it. So no matter how you feel about Tiger as a person, it’s clear golf needs him as a player. Clearly, there are people who want that player back. Really, who wouldn’t?

After routing rival Wichita State, 6-0, the Bulldogs stand firmly atop the MVC with a 10-1 record. Jenna Delong, 13-4, and Brynne Dordel, 10-8, have established themselves as a one-two punch in the rotation. Delong is just a mere two strikeouts away from tying the all-time Drake record of 680. Delong and Torrey Craddock have provided the spark offensively. Delong heads up the

team with nine homers, and Craddock leads her squad in at bats, total bases, doubles, RBIs and hits. The women in blue have had an April directly opposite to that of the Cyclones. Standing at 6-1, the Bulldogs have won with by way of their defense, allowing less than four runs a game. Whether it is the desire for revenge or the home field advantage that has yielded an 8-1 record, the Bulldogs are not going to be a simple stepping stone for the Cyclones. “We’re a good team, but we’ve been struggling in some points, and I know we will bring it back together and attack them,” Varela said.
