Event:
Filmmaker to present on Latino culturalism By Frances.Myers @iowastatedaily.com There will be a lecture Saturday, Sept. 15, just south of the Campanile on Central Campus. The lecture, “An Evening with Jacobo Morales,” will be at 7 p.m. There is no cost to attend. Jacobo Morales will be presenting as part of the Puerto Rican Student Association’s Cultural Night. This will run from 7 to 9 p.m. and will include traditional food and dancing. Morales is considered one of the most influential film directors in Puerto Rico’s history. He has had an eclectic career as a playwright, actor, filmmaker and writer. His first film, made in 1980, “Dios los Cria,” was selected as one of the 25 most significant films of Latin America. His third film, “Lo que le paso a Santiago,” was nominated in 1989 for an Oscar in the category of best foreign film. Hollywood credits of Morales’ include Woody Allen’s “Bananas,” as well as “Up the Sandbox,” with Barbra Streisand. The Puerto Rican Student Association is a multicultural student organization on Iowa State’s campus. According to the association’s website on the ISU clubs and organizations page, there are approximately 41 members. Their purpose and goals, according to their constitution, is to “foment and present a portion of the Puerto Rican culture to the students of Iowa State University by performing activities or discussions. Also to create union between the Puerto Rican Students at Iowa State University by creating a familiar atmosphere in which they may socialize.“ In the case that rain should occur, the lecture will be relocated to the South Ballroom of the Memorial Union.

By Lissa.Villa @iowastatedaily.com The word president implies a lot. It suggests everything from power to a suit, things that the average person does not deal with on a regular basis. The title can make its holder seem separate and distant from the typical individual. That’s not the case with Steven Leath, Iowa State University’s fifteenth president, who is anything but separate and distant from his students. Although President Leath began work during the second semester of last academic school year, Friday is his official installation. The ceremony will be held in Stephens Auditorium at 10:00 a.m. and will include an introduction by Erskine Bowles, a close friend of Leath’s. “An installation provides a president an actual opportunity to kind of lay out their priorities, their goals, for their tenure as president, both short term objectives as well as long term objectives,” said Miles Lackey, Iowa State’s first Associate Vice President. “He’s also looking forward to having the opportunity to tell the Iowa State community just a little bit more about himself.” Leath was born in Providence, Rhode Island, thirteen months after his older brother, with whom he would always have an especially close relationship. Both of Leath’s sets of grandparents were immigrants. His father’s parents were from England and his mother’s were from Italy. “I’m only second generation, so we had, I would say, a very ethnic upbringing,” Leath said, referring to himself and his three other siblings. At the age of two, the family moved to St. Paul, Minnesota, where Leath enjoyed an active childhood. During junior high the family packed up once again and moved to central Pennsylvania. There he took up outdoor activities such as hunting and fishing, as well as becoming active in school sports like wrestling and track. He also began working part time on local

This week’s colloquium,
By Eric.Debner @iowastatedaily.com During the worst agricultural drought since 1988, people were worried not about filling up their tanks but, rather, putting food on the table. An important question arises of why corn is still being used for ethanol production rather than food. “Corn ethanol production in the U.S. has grown exponentially,” said Tristan Brown, graduate student in biorenewable resources and technology. “The biorenewable energy industry is producing more corn ethanol today than ever imagined.” All the biofuels being produced are corn ethanol. When drought hits, demand increases and corn prices rise. The federal government passed the Renewable Fuel Standard, which required that by 2022, 50 percent of all ethanol produced comes from a noncorn source. Brown said the fuel standard provides a financial incentive for the different types of biofuel production. This mandate essentially seeks to gradually replace corn ethanol with biofuels produced from other biomass sources and reduce the industry’s dependence on corn as the main crop.
Hypothetically, say gasoline costs $3 to produce a gallon of gasoline, and $4 for a gallon of ethanol. The price cannot compete at that point because at most ethanol could be sold at $3 a gallon. It’s substitution, and you can only sell biofuel as same amount as gas is selling. Through the mandate, the government basically says “we’ll give you that $1 difference so you’ll never lose money producing biofuels.” Waive the mandate and corn ethanol will no longer be incentivized.
used to help farmers, because it improves soil moisture capacity,” Hayes said. Corn is part of everyday life for people living in the Midwest. Beyond the cities, corn fields cover the landscape. One can cruise the countryside for miles on end through oceans of green in the summer and golden brown in the fall. For many, corn is a source of food, fuel and income; it constitutes a lifestyle. Iowans know this fact to be especially true. However, Brown said he noticed Americans living on the coasts share a dif-

Brown said biomass is basically three things: carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. “What you can do is take the sugars that you would ferment into alcohol into ethanol, or treat them, get rid of the oxygen and get left with hydrogen and carbon,” Brown said. The extracted elements can then be used to create drop-in biofuels, hydrocarbons produced from biomass. These biofuels can be placed immediately as an alternative fuel for cars without being blended with regular fossil fuel gasoline. Corn stover, the remaining portion of the corn stock that is left after the corn grain has been harvested, is another possible candidate for constructing renewable fuels. Brown said corn stover can be heated to extreme temperatures of 300 to 1,000 C, through a process called pyrolysis. The resulting liquid can be treated to remove the oxygen, leaving behind hydrocarbons that can be used to produce drop-in biofuels. Dermot Hayes, professor of agricultural economics, explained that through pyrolysis, stover produces bio-oil and biochar. Bio-oil can then be turned into butanol, which is the drop-in biofuel used in agricultural practices. The char is added benefit. “Char can be

we have a lot of condensed matter physicists because we have a large condensed matter group; we have high-energy physicists and so on,” Marengo said, before adding, “We try to be diverse.” This program is beneficial to the selected speakers as well as the audience. Grijs said that speaking at as many events as possible is beneficial for a scientist because it gives them the ability to network with researchers with similar interests. “I put [this colloquium] on my CV as another talk I gave. It is good to interact with colleagues because I might see these people again at conferences, and they might remember me,” Grijs said. “You have a link to at least get started to potentially collaborate on projects.”

>>CORN.p2A ferent perspective. “When I was out east a few years ago, I noticed something that was really weird at first,” he said. “I drove out to Pennsylvania. The signs were advertising the fact that they didn’t sell ethanol.” It was the exact opposite. They were boasting, displaying signs saying “We do not blend ethanol” or “No ethanol sold here.” “If you’re from Iowa, you’ve seen the gas stations here all advertise the fact that they sell ethanol,” Brown said. Brown said that on the East and West coasts, people have an impression that ethanol starves people and causes Brazilian rain forest destruction. Based on research conducted on Iowa State’s campus in Heady Hall in 2008, the theory “Indirect Land Use” hypothesized that raising the price of corn here caused the people in Brazil to start growing corn; destroying rain forests for farmland. “They said that enormous quantities of rain forests were being destroyed because of corn ethanol production,” Brown said. “Just last year, the
same researchers went back, reran their numbers and found that their initial estimates were completely off base. They had overestimated by about five to 10 times.” The damage had already been done. This research was published in Science, the largest science journal in the world. Brown said that the media quickly noticed. For the next three years, headlines were published describing how corn ethanol production destroyed rain forests. “An attempt was made to publish an update in the same journal, but the journal wouldn’t publish it because they didn’t want the negative attention,” Brown said. The future of renewable fuels lies within a variety of crops, not just corn alone. “I get this notion that the drought has given ethanol a really bad name because everyone thinks that ethanol has something to do with the drought driving prices up so high,” Brown said. “These signs don’t say ‘We don’t sell corn ethanol here,’” Brown said. “They just say ‘We don’t sell ethanol.’ They don’t specify cellulosic ethanol.”

Editor’s note: Barry Snell is the Daily’s assistant opinion editor and editorial recruitment manager.
By Charles.O’Brien @iowastatedaily.com The Government of the Student Body is working to improve communication between themselves and the student body. The next step forward for GSB was introduced last week by Off-Campus Senator Barry Snell, senior in history, in the form of the “Making GSB Accountable and Transparent” bill. The bill states all activities of all branches of GSB are to be made available to the public in documentary, audio or video form and that all information available to the public on the Web page be kept up to date. “Transparency is something we are always trying to improve,” said GSB President Jared Knight, senior in political science. For close to a year, the current GSB website has been undergoing a rebuilding process; after the 2011 spring semester, the group changed from one website service to another, which allowed its page to mirror Iowa State’s official Web

page. The website service switch also brought about some problems; links on the website were broken and Ledgemaster, the program the Senate uses to post bills, did not save automatically to the group’s website. Many of these issues were being addressed already prior to the presentation of the bill, but currently, the news and events page, the Legman page and the homepage have not been updated. Another point brought up in the bill was the assignment of a “webmaster” to manage and update the site. Currently the secretary for GSB has been fulfilling this position. An alternative possibility has been the appointment of the public relations committee or the communications division of GSB to manage the website. “We talked about whether or not there should be a webmaster or a webmaster/secretary, but we haven’t decided this yet,” said Gage Kensler, GSB speaker of the senate and senior in political science. The financial cost of this bill is currently unknown; organizers of the bill are still meeting with IT services and trying to figure out the complete details, including available space online. “There really shouldn’t be any cost be-
cause of the bill; most of it is [Microsoft] Word documents, which don’t cost anything,” Kensler said. One idea that has been thrown around to make the organization more accessible but was not mentioned in the bill, was the idea of live-streaming GSB meetings on the Internet. “We talked last year about putting together live-streaming but did not get it all figured out, but it would be something pretty cool to have,” Knight said. One issue has been how to implement all of these programs online for students to use, as well as how to make the student body become aware of it. Knight pointed out a few new ways GSB is planning to enhance awareness among the student body: by writing newsletters, which would be sent out to students, and by pushing for more outof-office hours, so senators could communicate with their constituents more regularly. “All we can do is make sure that we do all that we can do,” Knight said. The accountable and transparent bill went through GSB’s Rules Committee on Monday and will not be subject to a vote by the senate until further details have been hashed out between GSB and IT services.
Paid advertisement Friday, 14 September 2012 TO: The Honorable Steven Leath, President, Iowa State University Honorable and dear President Leath,
Honorable and dear President Obama: Thanks for your inspiring words at Iowa State last Tuesday challenging young people to make a difference in the coming election. I couldn’t agree more. Young people are our future, which is why I’m asking Iowa young folk to help me ask you just when you’re going to answer whether or not you agree with your Attorney General’s requirement that the only way he will aid and assist my wife, Y Woman, is if I perjure myself on a federal immigration form and attest that she and I have cohabited these past 4 years, which we have not because you wouldn’t let us. Not you, of course, Mr. President, because you didn’t have a clue. Which, with all due respect, is still your fault, Sir, if I may have permission to speak freely and openly. Because you’re the one who hired these dummies, Mr. President, so the buck still stops on your desk, which I tried to tell you over two years ago along with Senator Richard Durbin, who put it succinctly: “The buck stops with his (your) office.” (See mine of 2 August 2010). Why your incompetent staff has ignored my repeated pleas to settle all this in a quiet and discreet manner is beyond me. Do your people have to go to blockhead school to get so dumb, Mr. President? Or is their blindness just a function of their big egos and inflated talking heads? Beats me. I even wrote repeatedly to your campaign leaders in Chicago urging them to intervene with the knuckleheads lurking around your West Wing. But it was all just pissing into the wind. Nobody home in Chicago or D.C. So you’re going to get all you’ve been asking for and more, Mr. President, if you force me to the extreme of filing a formal complaint with the Inspector General in the midst of your re-election campaign. I don’t really want to go there, Sir. But I will if you force me. And I’ll seek District Court if not Supreme Court intervention in the immoral if not illegal manner in which your functionaries have bungled the case of my wife, Y Woman, whose only “crime” has been helping out our government at the risk of her life, then and now, even though she’s not a citizen. Why won’t you help her, Mr. President? Please explain. Respectfully, Dr. Don Dough © 2012. Dr. Don Dough. All Rights Reserved.
Congratulations upon your installation as the 15th President of Iowa State University. I hope your tenure will be marked by the following traits: Innovation -- That Iowa State University will become a virtual engine of innovation in not just the hard sciences but the humanities and social sciences as well, partnering with various businesses and non-profits to develop new means of public-private enterprise. Research -- That Iowa State University will find the ways, means, and will to double or triple its commitment to engage in cutting-edge research in areas of proven expertise. Critical Thinking -- That above all else in the instruction it imparts, Iowa State University will encourage critical thinking skills in its students, helping them discriminate between the clamor of the latest political controversy and incidents of true U.S. Constitutional stature, like respect for one’s freedom of speech. Because Iowa has emerged as a crucial swing state in the current presidential race, there exists a unique opportunity for Iowa young people to be heard nationally over the next two months. Indeed, that’s why President Obama visited your campus and encouraged ISU students to become involved in the campaign. And that’s why I’ve since been running ads in your campus newspaper to enlist their aid in getting President Obama to explain just why he refuses to assist my wife from the intolerable situation in which 25+ years of federal blunders have left her. Unfortunately, your student journalists have failed to capitalize on this unique opportunity for an exclusive on a story with national implications on two major social issues of the day: immigration and marriage rights. Compounding their indifference is their decision to censor the ad I’d planned on running last week, leading me to pull it rather than get embroiled in yet another free speech controversy in Iowa. As regards my accusation that AG Holder is forcing me to perjure myself as the only means by which he will cooperate with my wife’s receiving Permanent Residency, there are only two possible options: either I’m lying or I’m telling the truth. If I’m lying, then I rightly should be dismissed as some kook or crazy. But if I’m telling the truth, then this Y Woman scandal might well be to Campaign 2012 what Willie Horton was to Campaign 1988--a small, seemingly insignificant story that nonetheless takes on much broader dimensions when viewed through a broader lens, for the controversy strikes at the heart of this administration’s moral credibility. The ISU community can make a positive contribution to the current national dialogue by asking President Obama to “say it ain’t so.” If he can give some explanation of how his administration has treated my wife over the past 3+ years and why he refuses to intervene on her behalf, then let’s hear it. But if he cannot, then let’s hear why not. And does he indeed support his Attorney General’s requiring me to perjure myself as the only means of resolving my wife’s immigration dilemma? In short, a little bit of innovative research by your students could help promote their critical thinking while leading them to providing a national service. In closing, I pledge my willingness to cooperate fully with your students should they choose to help secure justice for my wife. But if they want to keep ignoring this story, then so be it. At the same time as he appealed to ISU, President Obama carried the same message to Colorado State University and the University of Virginia, and he recently did so again at the University of Iowa. So if you’d rather I take this appeal to young people on some other campus, just let me know. Congratulations on your installation, and what about free speech at ISU? -- Dr. Don Dough © 2012.

farms. After high school, Leath attended college at Penn State, where, according to his Iowa State University biography, he attained a Bachelor of Science degree in plant science. This degree would be followed by two more: a Master’s in plant science from the University of Delaware, and a Doctorate in plant pathology from the University of Illinois. Throughout his academic and professional career, Leath would come to be involved in a lot of research. Leath’s father was an agricultural research scientist as well. “When we were real little, we would go to his lab and measure the size of fungal colonies… that’s probably where I got excited about plant pathology and doing agricultural research,” Leath said. Leath’s expertise with plants is not limited to his research however. In fact, his family owns a Christmas tree farm, which they started in 1997. “It’s kind of like therapy sometimes, just to be out in the tree fields on a beautiful spring or fall morning,” he shared. The tree farm business is now run by Scott, 22, Leath’s youngest son who is currently a senior in college. His oldest son, Eric, 25, works for the U.S. Senate. Leath admits that, as thrilled as he is to have gotten the job at Iowa State, it was difficult to leave his sons behind on the East Coast. That doesn’t mean that Dr. and Mrs. Leath reside by themselves at the Knoll though. They happily share their residence with Quill and Dixie, their two dogs to whom they enjoy devoting time and attention. Despite the distance from his sons, Leath is enthusiastic about his new job at ISU, to which he dedicates nearly all of his time. Typically, Leath works all day, either attends a dinner event or has dinner with his wife, Janet, and then returns to work. He averages six hours of sleep at night. With such a busy schedule, it’s difficult to get recreational activities in, but Leath enjoys archery, sometimes he even shoots his bow in his garage; and horseback riding, a hobby that he and Janet have bonded over. Incidentally, he has re-
ceived several injuries from riding, including a severely broken leg and seven broken ribs. Other injuries he has suffered include broken fingers and cutting through his kneecap with a chain saw. About four years ago, Leath also took up flying airplanes, a hobby he has managed to incorporate into his job. “I like to fly. Whenever I get a chance to fly to a meeting, I will usually fly myself. It’s one of those few times when you can clear away all of the work things out of your head… It’s very relaxing,” Leath explained. Leath also enjoys travelling. He’s been to over twenty countries, but has yet to visit Italy. He and Mrs. Leath had a trip planned there last September, but an important job interview in Ames, Iowa caused the trip to be postponed. Also high on his list of places to visit is also Alaska. “I’ve been pretty blessed, so there’s not a lot of things that I want to do that I haven’t had a chance, but, boy, Alaska would be one, and I would like to go on a big hunting trip with my sons sometime.” Leath, a self-proclaimed extrovert, also enjoys visiting with Iowa State’s students. Previously, he had held a position at an administrative office where his interactions with students were limited, and he had missed the campus atmosphere. “I eat a fair bit at [Iowa State’s] dining halls, and sometimes I eat alone because no one will sit with me,” he laughs. “I like hearing things unfiltered.” Lackey previously worked with Leath in North Carolina. “He’s just a really good man… He’s got character, he has integrity, he’s got an innate desire to serve and he also enjoys building those meaningful relationships. His personality is just very well suited for being a university president. He just, overall, is a really great person,” shared Lackey. With such a diverse personality, from his extensive education, to speaking Spanish, to the history he enjoys reading; there are many points for students and staff at Iowa State to relate to their president, who promises the students that “they can always remember that [my] number one objective here is [to provide] high quality undergraduate education.”

Creating pinwheels for peace Lorax Troop spins recycled plastics into peace symbols By Rebecca. Chamberlain @iowastatedaily.com Our generation is constantly bombarded with images and news of violence and destruction, which has led our world to become progressively desensitized to the idea of violence. That is why in 1981, the United Nations established Sept. 21 as International Day of Peace to help foster the idea of world peace, which is the ultimate goal of the United Nations. International Day of Peace serves as a reminder to work toward peace in all forms. This includes within one’s nation, with other nations, with others personally, with the environment and with oneself. Inspired by the International Day of Peace, a pair of high school art teachers in Florida prompted their students in 2005 to make pinwheels and write their
thoughts about peace on them. The project soon became schoolwide and has since been adopted by other schools, communities and organizations across the world. According to the Pinwheels for Peace website, 3.5 million pinwheels were constructed and displayed around the world on the 2011 International Day of Peace. This year, the ISU student organization The Lorax Troop has decided to adopt the Pinwheels for Peace project. The Lorax Troop functions as an advocate for world rain forests. They participate in information distribution, awareness events, fundraising and political action in the form of protests and petitions. “World peace is just another way of protecting the planet, which is the ultimate goal of The Lorax Troop,” said Sofia Pinero, sophomore in pre-biological and pre-medical illustration and co-founder of The Lorax Troop. The Lorax Troop will be distributing pinwheels in front of the library from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Sept. 21. Members will be educating students about the International Day
of Peace and prompting them to write their peace resolution on a pinwheel to be stuck in the ground. As defined by Pinero, a peace resolution is “what you, as a person, want to do to make this world a more peaceful place.” The pinwheels will be stuck in the ground in the collective shape of a peace sign, honoring the International Day of Peace. The pinwheels will be made out of recycled plastic sacks ironed methodically to craft fabric. According to Pinero, the sacks are being donated by The Lorax Troop members, as well as ones found around campus and by any volunteers. In order to have the pinwheels assembled and ready for peace resolutions, The Lorax Troop is having a workshop from 2 to 6 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 16, in room 3219 of the Memorial Union. They are encouraging anyone who would like to help construct pinwheels to come. For more information, visit The Lorax Troop’s Facebook page or contact them by email at loraxtroopiastate@ gmail.com.

Next, decide how long you wish the gloves to be and cut both sleeves to fit your preference, making sure both are the same length. Using gloves that you already have, or a cheap pair that matches the sweater, stitch one end of the sweater to the wrist of the glove. Now you have a set of inexpensive and unique accessories to start of the new season.

The air is getting cooler and the leaves on central campus are slowly turning from green to orange. The chill in the air means it is time to take inventory of your scarves and sweaters from last year. However, sometimes a change in style accompanies the change in weather. If you find that your old sweaters are outdated or simply do not fit the way you
remember, and you are ready to throw them out — don’t. Instead, find some scissors and reuse your old sweater as an accessory to your fall wardrobe. You can use the bottom part of the sweater to create a homemade infinity scarf. Cut across the chest just below the sleeves; it will form a tube, which can be wrapped around as a scarf.

The falling leaves provide a natural stencil for a fun and sustainable craft. Pick up leaves of different shapes and sizes and place them under a sheet of old newspaper. Next, use fall colors like brown, dark green, orange and yellow to color over the leaves. The background you have created can be used for a variety of purposes. One idea is to cut out the leaf shapes and hang them around your dorm room as a fall decoration. Bookmarks can also be made using the print and a thin, sturdy material, such as the box of a frozen pizza or microwave dinner. It is important the material is thin so that a book can close easily over it. Cut the colored paper into the bookmark shape and glue it to the sturdy material, then cut around the shape. These bookmarks make great, affordable gifts for friends as well, as many bookmarks can be produced quickly without using a lot of material.

Editorial
Regents plan could reclaim our education Wednesday, the Iowa Board of Regents created another episode in the saga of tuition set-asides. For those of you unfamiliar with the issue, an open secret came into public view this spring. Iowa’s Regents universities to assign a certain percentage of tuition paid by students to financial aid received by other students. In essence, the practice amounts to charging everyone a higher rate to subsizidize the education of other students. The regents’ proposal is that the state of Iowa would, next year, appropriate $39.5 million to ease Iowa’s public universities out of the program (last year, about $144 million was reserved from tuition at the three public universities). Funding would increase yearly to fully get rid of the program, and tuition would be reduced “by a rate commensurate with the amount of additional state” appropriations. There is, however, a looming question. What if the legislature refuses? Complaints abound that the state should not subsidize private goods, even higher education. But now is an opportune time for the legislature to assert its authority over higher education and guide it toward public ends. Especially at public schools and especially at land-grant schools such as Iowa State, education is about more than sudents’ private benefits. Strings are always attached to gifts of money; why can the state legislature not mandate that, with its additional appropriations, Iowa’s public universities develop a more public outlook? Such was Rep. Justin S. Morrill’s intention when he devised his plan for the land-grant colleges. The genius of his idea was that, rather than giving something for nothing, land-grant colleges provide both the kind of education necessary to put large numbers of ordinary Americans to work and grow the economy, and to serve the civic world. If the state is going to pay, the state should benefit. The state should ensure that people are receiving both training for the world of work and are equipped with the knowledge and perspective necessary to make educated political decisions that will serve the public’s, not themselves. Eliminating set-asides and replacing them with state funding presents an opportunity to confront the simmering debate that we have danced around for years: What kinds of education should government support? Either way, however, no real solution will materialize until there is a public debate — including a legislative debate, from subcommittee to the full House and Senate, among all legislators, regardless of party and experience — about the nature of public higher education. Until then, every appropriation is a stop-gap measure that fails to build any kind of future. Incidentally, it is through education that the future is secured. Editorial Board

Election
Partisan politics spells bad news for everyone Voters should pick candidates based on ideals, not party affiliation
P
residents from George Washington to Barack Obama have all spoken counter to partisan politics. Historically, most politicians, whether bidding for office or long-time seat holders speak at least somewhat of across-the-aisle appeal. Partisan politics divides the nation and stupefy the commons. Politicians are people-pleasers; while that may not be their job title or a component of their list of responsibilities, we all know that the electorate is highly capable at pleasing potential voters. Paul Ryan recently said: “We are looking for bipartisan solutions, not partisan rhetoric.” Whether or not a politician actually enacts acrossthe-aisle policy making is one thing, but it doesn’t take a wallflower to figure out why he or she might try to appeal to an opposing party. Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell said: “Our top political priority over the next two years should be to deny President Obama a second term.” It seems bipartisan rhetoric is leaping out the window. The greatest mistake you can make in politics is holding a certain belief because it conforms with the ideology of the party with which you vote. Straight-ticket voters are only checking the “ignorant” box on the ballot — and in Iowa, we do have a box that allows you to vote entirely for one party. As a citizen and a voter, you should know your own personal ideology and choose a politician who parallels that closest to your own. Democrats aren’t supposed to be pro-gun-control because their party stands that way, just as Republicans aren’t supposed to be pro-life because that is their party’s stance. The question is, do you hold these stances because that is the party you support? Or do you wholly believe in the issue regardless of party? A lot of what I speak out for or against ends up getting me labeled a “hard liberal” or “fanatical right,” when in fact I just so happen to support women’s right to control their reproductive cycle as well as the belief more citizens should conceal carry. My ideology is exactly that: my own. The droves of Obama “Forward” clubites and the teeming Romney pseudo elitists are no better or worse than the mullet man in the casino betting red because it’s “his” color. Partisan politics will never go away; don’t think I’m saying otherwise. But more citizens need to actually look at what a candidate stands for as opposed to what the party stands for. Assess the candidates character and leadership potential and make a decision based on his or her moral capacity to do what is right for the nation as a whole. Obama is not my ideal president, but he knows when a decision is right for the country, even when it is unpopular. Good politics is not necessarily popular politics.
By Ian.Timberlake @iowastatedaily.com He bailed out the banks, a decision he didn’t want to have to make, saying: “If there’s one thing that has unified Democrats and Republicans, it’s that we all hated the bank bailout. I hated it. You hated it. It was about as popular as a root canal.” But analysts from the U.S. Treasury and the Federal Reserve agree it was necessary in preventing a major economic collapse thanks to circular bank loaning brought forth by the Bush administration. As far as the health care law is concerned, even Fox News wrote the president’s plan will reduce the deficit in the following years: “Republicans have insisted that ‘Obamacare’ will actually raise deficits — by ‘trillions,’ according to presidential candidate Mitt Romney. But that’s not so, the Congressional Budget Office said. ... It did estimate that Republican legislation to repeal the overhaul — passed recently by the House — would itself increase the deficit by $109 billion from 2013 to 2022.” We are essentially the last first world nation to adopt universal health care. Shocking. Both of these instances are cases where unpopular decisions were made but were a benefit to the nation. Instances of politicians making people-pleasing decisions are rampant. This is why I said runaway partisanship stupefies the commons. It’s no different than the mother who gives candy to her child every time it cries. I am voting for a re-election of Obama. Difficult decision making and intelligence are my key reasons, and he has already shown those traits. He uses facts and numbers to make his political decisions, not partisan ideology, unlike the current Republican Party (note Mitch McConnell above). Thomas Jefferson said: “I never submitted the whole system of my opinions to the creed of any party of men whatever in religion, in philosophy, in politics or in anything else where I was capable of thinking for myself. Such addiction is the last degradation of a free and moral agent.” In this, Jefferson made a valuable distinction between policy and ideology. Politics is invested in your submission. Seek humanism and dispel politics that challenges natural-born rights. As the voting booths are built, avoid the “ignorant” box and break yourself from the arbitrary figments of the imagination, or “mind-forged-manacles” of straightticket voting.

Letter to the editor
Literature defined by content, not form I find the dejection found in Shannon Lange’s column last Friday, “Graphic novels can be serious literature,” astounding. Not only does she seemingly not regard manga, Marvel and DC comics as legitimate stories, she has the gall to strongly suggest that the only good “graphic novels” are about historic events (“Maus”), adaptations of previous works (“Hamlet”) or political commentary (“V for Vendetta”). Lange, what about “Astonishing X-Men,” written by cult icon Joss Whedon? Or how about the little-known “Wandering Son,” published by Fantagraphic Books, about two seventh graders who don’t associate with their respective genders and, in fact, cross-dress so they can be closer to the gender they associate with? Are these not literary by Lange’s standards or is she just unfairly grouping everything she hasn’t read into one convenient
category for the sake of the article? What defines comics as literary works isn’t their art. Of course, it isn’t their art and people don’t think of comics as just pretty artwork. They consider comics or graphic novels or manga as literary works when the writing is good and the art serves as a mode of storytelling. “Astonishing X-Men” and “Wandering Son” are critically acclaimed because they have some of the most brilliant writing seen in any literature, not just comics. So there are some comics that are just created as a way to spend time. (I’m looking at you, Superman.) The definition of a comic and a graphic novel and manga, then, is defined by the mode of publication rather than, as Lange suggests, the format of the story. To oversimplify the process, comics are typically published chapter by chapter; graphic novels are typically published volume
by volume; and manga are simply comics from Japan, published in a variety of ways in their native country but usually just volume by volume in the United States. This, again, really is the preference of the reader, but I believe the definition I’ve laid out here provides something much more concrete. Because “Astonishing X-Men,” at the very least, is considered a comic book, but it’s written much more like a graphic novel. Again, I’ll return to “Astonishing X-Men” as an example for the second to last paragraph. There’s the writer, Joss Whedon, and the artist, John Cassaday. But it’s both critically acclaimed and a great story with a different artist and writer. Another example is “Death Note,” regarded as one of the greatest manga out there. But it’s written by Tsugumi Ohba and drawn by Takeshi Obata. So is more credit due when it’s just one person writing and illustrat-
ing? Absolutely not. The credit is due when the creative work is good by a consensus, both in the writing and the artistry. The writer-artist relationship (and this is true in at least Japan for manga) is that the writer will write a basic storyboard — where the character should be, what he or she should be doing, what the background should look like and any other details the writer specifically wants — and hands that off to the illustrator, who will make that come to life. So are the illustrators not conveying what the writers want? Again, absolutely not. So are comics literary works? Yes. But, as with any other literary work, it’s determined by the quality of writing. Not by the qualifier that book stores use to organize their material.

Top-ranked Huskers Cyclones get ‘relentless’ with play for Nebraska By Cory.Weaver @iowastatedaily.com It takes a lot more than just a big match from a team’s best player to upset the No. 1 team in the country. However, if preparation, mindset and in-game performance all come together, Iowa State will have a chance to do that against Nebraska this weekend in Ames. Currently ranked No. 25, the Cyclones have never beaten a No. 1 team during coach Christy JohnsonLynch’s seven-plus years with the program, but she said in order to do so,
her team must hope its opponent isn’t at 100 percent. “You have to hope they’re off their game a little bit, and you have to play not JohnsonLynch perfectly, but you have to play pretty relentless,” Johnson-Lynch said, of playing Nebraska on Saturday. “So we’re going to have to flip it from what we did this weekend.” So far this season, Iowa State has had several matches where it had chances to close it out but couldn’t seal the deal.

Uhl to rejoin Ihmels, crew By Stephen Koenigsfeld Daily staff writer Former Cyclone Lisa Uhl announced Thursday she will be returning to Ames to join former coach Corey Ihmels as a volunteer assistant coach. Uhl said she would also continue training under Ihmels. An article on RunnersWeb. com says Uhl had been thinking about a change in her future. “I think I’ve felt like I’ve needed to make a change for a little bit now,” Uhl told Race Results Weekly over a phone call. “But I wanted to makes sure I gave Jerry and Shalane (Flanagan) and the rest of the group a significant amount of time to make sure that it just wasn’t me being homesick.” Ihmels said he is very excited to have Uhl, one of the most prominent ISU athletes, back. “We couldn’t be more excited to have Lisa back in Ames and as part of our track and field and cross country staff here at Iowa State,” Ihmels wrote in an email to Race Results Weekly on Wednesday night.

ISU vs. Nebraska Iowa State is 1-80 all-time against its former Big 12 foe Nebraska. That lone victory came in 2009 in Lincoln, when the Cyclones won in five sets. Seniors Rachel Hockaday and Jamie Straube both played in the match, with Hockaday recording a team-leading 18 kills. Keeping a statistic like that out of mind could be tough for the team with the single digit in the win column. But Straube, a native of Tecumseh, Neb., said it’s not as much keeping it out of her head as much as it is how it is approached. “I don’t really think about that,” Straube said. “Volleyball is so cool; any team can beat any team at any time, so that’s what makes it kind of exciting.”

Team prepares for first home meet Young runners aim for ‘race experience’
By Emily.Hejlik @iowastatedaily.com The ISU cross-country teams are ready to host their lone home meet of the 2012 season. This Saturday marks the annual Iowa Intercollegiate meet that will take place at the ISU Cross-Country Course. “We are going to use this as a workout meet to take the next step in our season,” said associate coach Travis Hartke. “This will be the first meet of the season for a lot of our run-
ners — we are a young team on both sides [men’s and women’s], so it gives people race experience.” The women’s 5,000-meter race is scheduled to start at 10 a.m., with the men’s 8,000-meter race is expected to start at 10:30 a.m. Schools competing against the Cyclones include Des Moines Area Community College, Grand View, Indian Hills, Iowa Lakes, Missouri, Marshalltown Community College, North Iowa Area Community College, UW-Lacrosse, Wartburg and Waldorf. A season ago, the women’s squad dominated the Iowa Intercollegiate meet with Maddy Becker claim-
ing the women’s title, finishing the 4,000-meter course in 18:56. On the men’s side, Besu ShannonTamrat won the 8,000-meter race in a time of 26:35. The Cyclone women earned the top-16 spots of the results while the men collected the top-11 spots. Both the men and women won the team title as well. Redshirt sophomore Josh Heitkamp expects another commanding performance. “Our team’s expectations are to win; anything less would be considered a failure,” Heitkamp said.

Defensive advantage kicks it up gain confidence going into conference,” said ISU coach Wendy Dillinger. Players and coaches realize the importance of the nonconference schedule, not only to help the Cyclones’ record, but also to prepare them for the intensity of Big 12 play. “These are definitely important games,” said ISU senior Kelsey Calvert. “We don’t overlook anything. The big picture is: we look towards conference, but these games help us so much more.” This weekend features a rare away-home split for the Cyclones, something that does not show up on the schedule often. Although this will create a more unusual travel situation for the Cyclones, they are more than pleased to be able to face Milwaukee in Ames as opposed to on the road Sunday. The Cyclones have lost three games so far this season, two of which have come against nationally ranked opponents. The three teams that have defeated the Cyclones own a combined record of 23-0.
By Dan.Cole @iowastatedaily.com The ISU soccer team travels to Brookings, S.D., on Friday to face South Dakota State before returning home in time to face UW-Milwaukee on Sunday afternoon. The two opponents own a combined record of 2-7-2. The Cyclones (5-3) defeated South Dakota State (1-4-1) by a score of 1-0 last season in Ames and are tied with the Jackrabbits 2-2-1 in the alltime series. The Jackrabbits have struggled to generate offense so far this season, having only scored four goals through their first six games. Compare that to the Cyclones, who have netted 17 goals through eight games this season, and an offensive advantage begins to make itself apparent. “There’s something about them, whenever we play them, it’s like this battle,” said ISU junior Erin Green of South Dakota State. “It’s a team that we should be beating by a larg-

The team is approaching the halfway point of its regular season and has assessed what needs to happen in the second half in order for the Cyclones to succeed leading up to the Big 12 tournament. “The most important thing for us is to come out with a total 90 [minutes], where we come out hard from the start, we put everything together that our coaching staff has given us,” Calvert said.

The games will be at 7:30 p.m. Friday and Saturday at the Ames/ ISU Ice Arena. For the fans who cannot make it to the game, it will be streamed live online on the America One Network. There will be a link on the Cyclone Hockey Web page that will direct fans to the site. Senior forward and alternate captain Derek Kohles said he is ready to get back on the ice. “Just getting on the ice again and getting the season going,” Kohles said of what he is looking forward to. “It’s been a long time.”

For the second year in a row, the Huntsville Havoc will partner with the Cyclone Hockey team to hold one of its free agent camps in Ames. The Huntsville Havoc, a Southern Professional Hockey team, will hold an evaluation camp for aspiring players to try out to make it to the team’s main training camp Friday and Saturday. The hockey team will play the Huntsville prospects in order for the prospects to have a chance to showcase their skills, as well as for the Cyclones to have an opportunity to prepare for the upcoming season. The Cyclones will be playing against some “pretty darn good players,” said coach Al Murdoch.
Murdoch said he is planning on playing nearly 30 different players during the weekend. This will give Murdoch and the rest of the Cyclone coaching staff a good chance to evaluate their players while they are playing against top-notch competition. “It’s always good to evaluate talent,” Murdoch said. Along with getting prepared for the season and evaluating players, members of the team have voiced other goals for the exhibition games. “It’s always good to play higher caliber teams; it’s a different style of hockey,” said Justin Wilkinson, senior defenseman and alternate captain. “We hope to learn a couple of things.” Murdoch is excited to see the fan turnout for the games this year.

Fun Facts Don’t let the name fool you: Joyce Hall, who made millions developing the Hallmark brand name, was a man. Stephanie Kwolik’s name might not ring a bell, but she’s responsible for saving thousands of lives. In 1965, she invented Kevlar, the material used in bulletproof vests. It took George Eastman, the inventor of Kodak film, four years to come up with a name for his product. He worked with his mother on it, and had a few rules for what he wanted: something short, something impossible to mispronounce, something unique, and something that included his favorite letter, K. In 1959, the USSR launched a craft called the Mechta towards the Moon. It missed, and instead became (inadvertently) the first manmade satellite to go into orbit around the Sun. Ayers Rock in Australia reaches 1,000 feet above the ground, but the part you can’t see is even more impressive: the rock extends about a mile and a half into the ground. Tom Selleck was tapped to play Indiana Jones, but due to a contracted commitment to Magnum PI, he decided to do the honorable thing and keep the agreement. Ironically, an ensuing writers strike delayed production long enough that he could have acted in Indiana Jones.

>>NEBRASKA.p7 mindset from this past weekend and start playing defense and getting after it,” JohnsonLynch said. Beside the change in mentality, the team has found another significant weakness it must improve before Saturday: blocking. With Tenisha Matlock and Jamie Straube up front, Johnson-Lynch expected the team’s blocking to be much better than it has been this season. So far, the Cyclones are blocking just 1.57 balls per set while their opponents are blocking 2.39. The team has been putting more of a focus on blocking recently, however, and senior setter Alison Landwehr said it’s going to be a difference maker come
Saturday. “We just need to be touching a lot of balls against them because they’re big and playing defense; otherwise they can get going and start going off,” Landwehr said. When preparing for the best team in the country, a team that knocked off No. 1 UCLA earlier this season, it not only involves physical skills but mental preparation as well. Johnson-Lynch said Nebraska’s outside hitters could quite possibly be firstteam All-Americans. Combined with having an experienced setter and talented middles, one thing that makes the Cornhuskers so good is their ability to attack from all angles. Straube said
Editor: Jake Calhoun | sports@iowastatedaily.com | 515.294.2003
that means the Cyclones will have to stay mentally sound throughout the entire match to compete to the best of their ability. “There’s probably not just one or two people we can key on throughout the match like we have the past couple of games, so just mentally you have to be focused the whole time because you have so many things coming at you,” Straube said. “You can’t take a break, can’t fall asleep for a play; because a really good team will expose that.” Nebraska and Iowa State square off at 1 p.m. Saturday at Hilton Coliseum. Neither team will have had a match since the previous weekend, making both fresh to go in this Husker-Cyclone showdown.

>>RHOADS.p7 games losing the turnover battle and you’re just not going to keep doing that,” Rhoads said. “Correctable mistakes, already looked at them and have a better understand why. Of the four, I think one is a great play by their defense. The fumble on Shontrelle [Johnson], it’s a fullspeed violent collision.” The correctable mistakes Rhoads referred to stem from the play of quarterback Steele Jantz. Two interceptions and a fumbled exchange were overlooked by a quarterback rating of 121 and an emotional win at Kinnick. “The interceptions, we’ve got to handle, we’ve got to do a better job of and then the exchange is one,” Rhoads said. “The thing that excites me coming out of that is Steele Jantz understands that and will work to improve that.” This will be one of the few games Iowa State goes into as the favored team to win. In Rhoads’ career as the ISU coach, he has won
20 games despite being favored in just eight. After a record-setting day at Jack Trice when 54,931 fans filled the stadium for the season-opening record, Rhoads still expects his “Cyclone Nation” to come and support the team. Last year, Iowa State started the season 3-0 en route to a bow bid. If the Cyclones can win Saturday night against Western Illinois, only three more wins will be needed to get a bowl bid as opposed to four, which is a bigger gap than it seems playing in the Big 12. “Huge,” Rhoads said referring to the 3-0 start at stake. “You look at years one through three and the two bowl seasons and what we did in nonleague. It goes a long way especially when you see what kind of competition we play week in and week out in the Big 12 for overall season success. So to have this opportunity to be fight for 3-0, we’re excited.” Kickoff is slated for 7 p.m.
CYCLONE HOCKEY Exciting Home Games This Weekend!
Photo: Brandi Boyett/ Iowa State Daily The women’s cross-country team practices for the upcoming season Aug. 20 on campus. The team’s next meet is the Iowa Intercollegiate this coming weekend.
RUNNING.p7 “Individually, I would like to be in the top seven.” Even with the upcoming home meet, preparation during the week hasn’t changed. “[Tuesday] was a pre-meet workout, so we practiced at race pace,” Heitkamp said. “Otherwise, no one is dropping mileage since this is a smaller meet.” The Iowa Intercollegiate will be a gage of where the
team is in terms of fitness and is also an opportunity for runners to focus on the mental aspects involved in a collegiate race. “Individually, I want to be mentally composed and be as ready to race as I can,” said redshirt sophomore Maggie Gannon. “This meet is valuable for us to develop for the Roy Griak Invitational in Minnesota in two weeks.” With expectations of success set high for the Cyclones,
(8)
the ultimate goal for the weekend is not totally about winning. “The most important thing for us is getting used to keeping the spread between our first and fifth runners a short distance,” Gannon said. “This was our Achilles’ heel last season, and in order to win nationals, we need to run as a pack.” Saturday will be another stepping-stone toward the team’s goal of winning a national title.
