JOEY R AMIREZ Sports Editor With his junior season in the books, for-ward Hauns Brereton was on track to make his final year on the Rainbow Warrior basketball team a great one. Brereton was selected as one of UH’s three captains in the offseason and did not disappoint in the season-opening victoryy over Maryland-Eastern Shore as he poured in a career-high 24 points on 9-of-12 shooting. However, what followed was a cold streak ak that even “Iceman” could not handle. Brereton made just eight of his 27 field-goal d-goal attempts during the next four games and failed iled to shoot better than 27 percent in any of them. “Maybe it meant a little too much outside pressure on him to perform as a senior,” said d head coach Gib Arnold. “You see it sometimes with ith seniors thinking about next year: College career’s areer’s done. What’s coming up next? I had a lot off meetings with him just to tell him to relax and to play and to enjoy the moment.”

The University of Hawai‘i at Mā noa is set to host teams from Hawai‘i and the continental U.S. this weekend during the annual Pan Pacific Debate Championship. This weekend’s tournament, which will take place on Feb. 16 and 17 at UH’s Shidler College of Business, represents the fi rst time that the competition has been held on Mā noa’s campus and will feature about 25 teams from at least eight colleges and universities. The previous fi ve Pan Pacifi c debates were hosted exclusively by Hawai‘i Pacific University. “We have a rapidly expanding group of debaters at Mā noa, and we want to bring that [experience] to the campus,” said Sterling Higa, a communicology major and member of UH’s debate team. Higa, who has been involved with the team for a year, said M ā noa will send four teams of two debaters each to the competition. He added that although the team normally practices two times a week, they have been putting in extra hours of preparation time ahead of this weekend’s championship. “ The style of the debate is limited preparation,” Higa said,
noting that each team has 15 minutes after the round topic is announced to concoct their argument. Once a round begins, debaters must stick to their prior knowledge of the topic, argumentative skills and wits in order to build a better case than their opponent. “It forces students to be well rounded … and to know about a wide range of topics,” said Robert Boller, assistant professor of communicology at UH and head of the Debate and Forensics Club. Beyond the basics of keeping up with world events and being well versed in related literature, the main advisor for the club explained that student members spend 10 hours or more a week as a group preparing for their debates. Preliminary and fi nal round events will take place from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on both days of the competition at Shidler. Viewing of the debates is free and open to the public. Students interested in joining Mā noa’s Debate and Forensics club can contact Dr. Boller for more information on the organization’s next tryout session.

Global experience preferred K ELLY Z AKIMI Contributing Writer This semester marks the inauguration of a new Study Abroad Center option at the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa. The Global Experience Preferred Option, initiated through a collaborative effort between the College of Social Sciences faculty and the Study Abroad Center, allows students in the College of Social Sciences to fulfill the “breadth or depth” requirement by participating in any one of the SAC’s numerous study abroad programs. “It’s very exciting for students because one of the reasons why faculty started thinking about that in the fi rst place is that a number of our Social Sciences students – but I’m sure probably other students too – feel that sometimes the breadth and depth requirements are really onerous,” said Manfred Steger, a professor of political science and senior advisor on international education and globalization to Dean Denise Konan of the College of Social Sciences. Mandatory for all undergraduates pursuing a BA in the Colleges of Arts and Sciences, “breadth or depth” adds a minimum of 12 credits to a student’s overall course load. The College of Social Sciences faculty’s desire to ease this extra load – and help students graduate more quickly – contributed to GEPO’s conception. Under the new policy, credits earned on a SAC program can be counted twice and enable students to juggle numerous UH requirements. Social Sciences undergraduates can now fulfill “breadth or depth” using the credits completed abroad in addition to satisfying other graduation and degree requirements, such as diversification and Hawaiian/second language. Students also have the option of fulfilling GEPO through Mānoa International Exchange programs. However, unlike credits earned on a SAC program, MIX credits are transfer credits and need to first be approved by the Admissions and Re-
cords Office in order to be deemed applicable to Mānoa’s degree requirements.

E M P H A S I S T OWA R D G L O BA L I Z AT I O N In addition to gaining firsthand experience abroad, CSS faculty and SAC personnel hope that undergraduates will become more conscious of globalization through participation in GEPO. “We also want to make Social Sciences degrees much more applicable to the real world, have our students actually experience this and be able to compete with the rest of the world,” explained Sarita Rai, director of the Study Abroad Center. Steger and Rai have lived and studied in multiple countries, empowering them to attest to the importance of global citizenship and experience, which is especially vital in the workforce. Steger stressed the rising demand for employees who are aware of global issues and can respond to them. “Global citizenship means that people become more globally aware,” Steger said. “Because even in terms of work, in the future, many more jobs will require you to live abroad and have that experience and know what it means to be in another culture and to immerse yourself in another culture.”

D E B U N K I N G T H E S T U DY A B ROA D MY T H S “There is a misconception that the study abroad program is a bubble program that only UH faculty will teach and UH students will go, and they are not integrated into a foreign university,” Rai said. She clarified that the majority of courses in the program will be taught by the foreign institution and UH students will learn alongside residents. Rai and Steger were also quick to emphasize that studying abroad is affordable for the average UH undergraduate. The costs of studying abroad are often comparable to, or less than, the costs of staying at UH. Financial aid and scholarships are also available to subsidize the cost for studying abroad.

Review: ‘Side Effects’ PAIGE TAKEYA Managing Editor
COURTESY OF KENNEDY THEATRE
‘Danny and the Deep Blue Sea’ BEN SAUDERS Contributing Writer Kennedy Theatre’s newest addition to its late night repertoire, “Danny and the Deep Blue Sea,” premiered this weekend at the Earle Ernst Lab Theatre. Directed by Lavour Addison, the show is set in presentday Brooklyn at the scene of an unlikely encounter between a man and a woman – their internal problems threaten to send them both off to confront deep-rooted secrets.
A PA I R O F AC E S Written by Bronx local John Patrick Shanley, both actors adopt heavy New York accents, adding credibility to their dialogue. The quick conversations between Danny (Leon Sheen) and Roberta (Kaitlin Souza) bring both laughter and awkward silence as the story develops and emotions between the two transform during the course of the show. “I chose this play because it showcases the strength of humanity overcoming circumstance,” Addison said in a press release. The play is remarkable because it feels full and complete: A combination of excellent casting and acting never makes a dull moment – this is Danny and Roberta’s story, and they tell it not only through conversation but what goes unsaid between the two as well. Everyone is crazy, or we can believe they are crazy. When tasked with half the lines in a show, it’s hard enough to simply memorize them, let alone deliver them with enough body language and deliberation to convince the audience that the character really is at a breaking point. It is this use of nonverbal communication between the characters that make their performances believable and compelling. From Danny’s nervous twitches to Roberta’s aura of desperation and panic, it is easy to forget that the two people screaming at each other in front
of us will later be smiling and holding hands during the curtain call.
C A P T I VAT I N G S PAC E “Danny and the Deep Blue Sea” keeps it simple – the stage is the size of a small classroom, ensuring that the show is close to the viewer. Aside from basic furniture, the show makes little use of scenery, but this arrangement works well. There is just Danny and Roberta, and they tell their stories and secrets so well that the presence of the two on the stage is all that is needed to keep things interesting. You’ll have to see the show to find out why Danny and Roberta are so crazy. They both have problems and, just like anyone else, must find a way to solve them before it’s too late. By slowly opening up to one another, Danny and Roberta transport the audience into the mind of madness that can only be described as shocking and engrossing. Although at times violent and certainly not for the faint of heart – the show is recommended for mature audiences – “Danny and the Deep Blue Sea” is worth staying up late this weekend to see.
‘DANNY AND THE DEEP BLUE SEA’ When: Friday, Feb. 15 and Saturday, Feb. 16; 11 p.m. Where: Earle Ernst Lab Theatre Cost: $10 general admission, $8 seniors, military, UH faculty and staff, non-UH Mā noa students, $5 UH Mā noa students with a validated ID Contact: 808-956-7655 or hawaii.edu/kennedy
“Side Effects” will be best known and judged as director Steven Soderbergh’s selfproclaimed final film but may not stack up against the rest of his filmography. This pharmaceutical drama captures the despair of mental illness but quickly devolves into an outlandish and unbelievable conspiracy story. Emily Taylor (Rooney Mara) is struggling with severe depression after her Wall Street trader husband Martin (Channing Tatum) is released from prison. As she and Martin try to piece their lives back together, she falls apart and seeks the help of Dr. Jonathan Banks (Jude Law) after a failed suicide attempt. Both of them hope to find the right medications that will pick her up. After consulting her previous psychiatrist, Dr. Victoria Siebert (Catherine Zeta-Jones), Banks prescribes a drug called Ablixa – but its dangerous side effects undermine his and Emily’s lives and enmesh them in a web of lies and paranoia. Soderbergh employs his usual talent in making the schemes buzz along like one of his heist flicks – every shot feels important, and often is – but the increasingly ludicrous plot suspends belief. Echoes of Soderbergh’s 2011 super-flu film “Contagion” linger on in “Side Effects,” which is sped along by Law, who stars in both films. It is unclear who or
According to Box Office Mojo, “Side Effects” grossed $9.3 million in its opening weekend. SIDE EFFECTS MCT
what Soderbergh is trying to critique with this film – drug companies, doctors and patients all get slammed here – and the end result is a cocktail of confusion and dissatisfaction. This is a pity – Law and Mara carry “Side Effects” with their nuanced and human performances. It is in moments that the movie shines, like Mara silently watching her distorted face in a mirror as sadness sweeps over her with unexpected intensity. Those who have suffered from clinical depression or anxiety in the past will find that Soderbergh has managed to replicate the hazy feeling of despair and the manic pulse of paranoia. Unfortunately, Zeta-Jones chews scenery and nearly undoes the realism that the two leads cultivate. Tatum is serviceable but bland – but necessarily so, in his defense. The trailers suggested that this film was a salacious and sexy drug thriller, but the end result is as cool and clinical as the grays and blues that comprise the film’s color palate. It’s well-shot and well-acted, but its shaky stance on pharmaceuticals ultimately renders it flawed. Rather than being remembered as Soderbergh’s last hurrah, it may be better if this film’s side effects included memory loss.

E A SY PU LLE D PORK This simple recipe, adapted from everydaypaleo.com, is a great choice for the lazy chef on a budget. A 4-5 pound pork butt can be purchased for $8, and the leftovers are enough to feed the average college student for a few dinners. The chili powder and liquid smoke make a delicious combination by giving the pork a barbecued flavor. Just prepare this recipe the night before, and a savory-sweet pork dish will be waiting for you in the morning.
Nutrition tips from professionals K ELLY SLOAN Contributing Writer Because I am a nutrition student in the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa’s Food Science and Human Nutrition Program, many of my friends ask me questions about diet and food. Instead of relying on my own answers, I emailed three registered dietitians – chef Lauren Squier, associate professor and dietetics coordinator, Anne Shovic and “College Lifestyles” editor in chief Shelly Marie Redmond – to get expert information on nutrition issues commonly faced by college students.

Squier: A person’s calorie requirements depend on their gender, height, weight, activity level and body composition (muscle versus fat). To simplify things a little, you can look at a calorie requirement chart at choosemyplate.gov/supertracker-tools/daily-food-plans.html or … supertracker.usda.gov/myplan.aspx to create a personal eating plan. More important than counting calories, though, is eating the right foods. Focusing on real foods, like vegetables, fruits, whole grains, lean meats and dairy, and getting a variety of foods each day is important for good health.

Shovic: Skipping breakfast can be associated with various health conditions such as eating disorders, ... malnutrition and excessive dieting. W hen you skip breakfast, you become hungrier and tend to overeat throughout the day, which can affect the body metabolism and lead to obesity. According to the International Journal of Obesity, studies show kids who are obese normally skip breakfast. … People are vulnerable to high fat and sugar y foods during the day if they don’t eat a good breakfast because our bodies rely on protein, fat and carbohydrates in order to function prop erly through a 24 -hour day. These important nutrients are necessar y for good health and to help maintain blood sugar levels.

Opinions FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION Bridging the pay gap and gender divides NATASHA GR AY Contributing Writer According to a document titled “ The Simple Truth About The Gender Pay Gap” on the A merican Association of University Women website, women make 77 cents to the dollar that men make doing the same work. Times have changed little since our mothers were paid 56 cents on the dollar compared to their male counterparts. Despite popular perceptions of attained equality, women and men are far from receiving equal pay for the same work. Public education might assist in mobilizing activism on this important issue.

Students in Sociolog y 499 at the Universit y of Hawai’i at M ā noa are teaming up with the Honolulu branch of the A AU W to create the Equal Pay Project, which aims to empower students and raise awareness about the pay gap bet ween men and women in all professional careers. Studies have shown that many women in Hawai‘i are unaware of the pay gap and unprepared to negotiate for their f irst paycheck. T he Equal Pay Project seeks to provide re sources to women about equal pay, encourage registration as A AU W e -student af f iliates and promote advocacy regarding women’s issues and gender equalit y.. A AUW advances equality for women and girls through education, philanthropy and research. The website also offers fers information about $50,000 in scholarships ps that are available to women studying in n Hawai‘i. “We would encourage ourage students to sign up on the A AU W site [honolulu-hi.aauw.net] to become more informed aboutt many issues concerning women, including unequal pay and potentially tially become activists themselves,” ,” said Joanna Amberger, presidentt of A AU W Honolulu Branch. “ The more knowledge students ts have about the pay gap, p, the more prepared they will be in the workforce.””
U P C OM I N G E V E N T S The Equal Pay Project has several events planned for this semester: Condom Day: Sociology students will have a table for this event on Valentine’s Day, Feb. 14, with prizes, condoms, games and information regarding equal pay. Stop by the table at Campus Center, grab some goodies and get information about A AU W. Photo contest: Students will also be conducting a photo/video contest with cash prizes regarding the pay gap. Look for announcements around campus and on Facebook. $mart$tart: Workshops will inform women about the gender pay gap and provide strategies on how to negotiate equal pay for women beginning their professional careers. The workshops will be held on campus throughout the semester. Look for posted dates. If you are a woman on campus, the Equal Pay Project is something that will affect you. If you are a male on campus and you feel that fairness is important, support female students and the Equal Pay Project Facebook page.

Finding FREE LOVE for the future ROMAN K ALINOWSKI Staff Writer
For the overwhelming majority of Americans, Valentine’s Day means one of two things: leaping headfirst into an abyss of passion with one’s exclusive partner or rebelling against Eros by participating in mundane protest activities with friends of the same sex. Rather than being limited to both sides of the same coin, I encourage everyone to accept the currency of free love this year.
O R I G I N S O F P O LYA MO RY A N D M A R R I AG E The concept of free love roots back to the early texts and possibly before the dawn of homo sapiens. Polyamory, another word for free love, is different from polygamy, which is based around the social contract of marriage. Marriage in Europe and the rest of the world has been used to secure political alliances, wealth, land and legitimate heirs. Demosthenes described marriage in Hellenistic Greece: “We have prostitutes for our pleasure, concubines for our health and wives to bear us lawful offspring.” Marriage is and always has been about the social bondage of women, as well as subservience to the state, or polis.
ROMAN KALINOWSKI / KA LEO O HAWAI‘I
About 41 percent of first marriages end in divorce in the United States. The sole purpose of exclusive relationships today is to marr y, which, like the institutions of government, religion and the Federal Reser ve banking system, is inherently f lawed. W hile some are genuinely in love and also married, I find it amazing that A mericans continue to marr y, despite the one -in-two prob ability that they will divorce and potentially lose half of their possessions.
Demarginalizing LGBT DOMENICK BARBO Contributing Writer Va Valentine’s Day is a fun Hallmark ritual that encourages lovers to be creative, expressive and encou profitable, but not everyone is included in Cuta pid’s m marketing plans. As Feb. 14 approaches, we must aask ourselves what it might be like to have to love in exile – love is still a struggle for many Americans in the LGBT community. Am I have relatives in the LGBT community, and I have seen the social pressures both in and outside of the family. These struggles and pressures even touch the lives of today’s rich and famous. For them, sexuality is a challenge to their public identity, anonymity and careers, ENTER TV / MCT but celebrities are making sacrifices to Actress Jodie Foster announced that she was guide America’s LGBT youth and the community at large. gay at the 2013 Golden Globe Awards.
I defi ne love as caring about another person in the same way that one loves him or herself. Unfortunately, millions of people feel that it is unacceptable to share any form of love with more than a single other person.
FEELING GOOD Humans are one of only three species who have been documented as having sex while the female is between fertility cycles, the other
two species being bottle-nose dolphins and bonobo apes. In fact, bonobos resolve conflicts with every imaginable sex combination in their female-dominated society and coincidentally are extremely peaceful. Every other animal species only has sex for a few days per month or year (not unlike many humans). This suggests that while it may feel good for animals to get their groove on, they only mate to reproduce. Also, while many animals are capable of licking themselves and seem to like it, humans are the only animals that masturbate to completion, which is likely due to our higher cognition and ability to fantasize. Humans possess the ability to make love daily, and shouldn’t waste that gift. This Valentine’s Day, experiment with free love – love as if there are no rules or taboos from society, organized religion or the media. The one guideline to free love is that there is no external pressure to do anything; men and women have complete control over their own bodies and love freely based on their sole discretion without hurting anyone else. So love everyone you encounter, whether conversationally, emotionally, spiritually, physically or sexually, and take a dip in the pool of emotional paradise – the water is warm.

This award season, actress Jodie Foster came out to a largely speechless audience that she was both gay and newly single after a 20-year relationship with Cydney Bernard. Foster won the Cecil B. DeMille Award for Lifetime Achievement. In her acceptance speech, she made a joke that “… every celebrity is expected to honor the details of their private life with a press conference, a fragrance and a reality TV show.” Four months ago, director Lana Wachowski, most known for “The Matrix” and more recently “Cloud Atlas,” came out as a transgender. She originally started her career with her brother Andy and they were, and still are to the ignorant, known as the Wachowski brothers. She mentioned that “transition” is a word that she does not like to use. The term is a complex subject for her because “ … of its complicity in a binary gender narrative that [she] is not comfortable with.” Wachowski mentioned that part of the reason she decided to come out was that she felt a responsibility to the youth in the LGBT community. Both women made reference to the iconic phrase “loud and proud.”
Some of the “love” products and services advertised during the Valentine’s Day season include travel, food, jewelry, novelties, chocolates, floral arrangements and music. Ask yourself, “What types of messages are love marketers sending?” I cannot remember seeing any company marketing love-related products with subcultural sexuality. None of them acknowledge the L for lesbian, G for gay, B for bisexual or T for transgender. Sex products and pornography do, but love or relationship-based products and services? The LGBT communities have been stood up before they were even asked out on a date. If these commodities are associated with a love holiday and they are not marketed to LGBT couples, what is the media saying about love? It seems as if love, along with rights and respect, is reserved for the procreative mainstream. A company like 1-800-FLOWERS could start a movement with one commercial ad. If Hollywood stars are standing up to acknowledge and embrace marginalized sexualities, Valentine’s Day marketers should too.

Injuries, adversity can’t keep Kuehu down JEREMY NIT TA Associate Sports Editor Calling junior forward Shawna-Lei Kuehu of the Rainbow Wahine basketball team “resilient” might be an understatement. Since her junior year of high school in 2007, Kuehu has been injured or missed playing time in five of those six years. Kuehu has battled through a pair of knee injuries, a shoulder injury and missed time last season to have her first child. But Kuehu has remained strong, fighting each time to return to the game she loves. “I have thought about throwing in the towel – a bunch of times actually,” Kuehu said. “But now, there’s a bigger purpose than just myself. There’s me, my daughter, and that just keeps my drive going. During the times where I feel like throwing in the towel, it’s not an option for me.” ISMAEL MA/KA LEO O HAWAI‘I
Junior forward Shawna-Lei Kuehu is shooting a career-best 42.5 percent from the field this year.

School, credits her success to her drive and determination. “She definitely has the characteristics necessary to go through adversity time and time again,” Petersen said. “She keeps coming back, working hard and putting herself into a position to be successful. I wanted to see if her passion would come back. To me, it has come back.” And Petersen applauds her persistence. “I’m happy for her,” Petersen said. “All of our girls put in such hard work. During the course of the year, it’s school-basketball, school-basketball – kind of like clockwork. For her, having her daughter, it’s a once in a lifetime opportunity that they can look back on.”
T E A M P L AY E R Despite injuries, Kuehu has come on strong for the ‘Bows, especially in conference season. Kuehu is averaging 9.6 points per game, second-best on the team behind junior forward Kamilah Martin. She also ranks fourth on the team in rebounding with 4.4 per game and leads the

I want to help my team out in any aspect that I can and do anything they need me to do,” Kuehu said. But now able to play, Kuehu’s contributions have become indispensable. “She was never really able to come back and have a full season and get back into the flow of the game,” Petersen said. “This season she has, and she’s really showing everyone what she is capable of.”
