“The problem [with bicycle lanes] around campus is that some portions of University Ave. are maintained by the state,” Brandon Hicks, Cycle Manoa’s director, said in an email interview. “Different entities own different areas of the roadway, which creates a conflict of interest.

Although he prefers to bike, he often chooses to ride his moped. “I love riding my bike to campus,” Mascioli said. “The road on my route to school is terrible, and I hate how cramped I feel biking on certain parts of the road. It’s so much easier for me just to ride my moped. I feel much safer.” Still, Mascioli said the city had made progress in making Honolulu more bike-friendly. “I sold all of my cars because I came to the point where it wasn’t

The South King Street bike lane is physically separated from traffic, and the city will monitor it for two years to determine its success. SHIWANI JOHNSON STAFF WRITER

Extending the King Street bike lane to University Avenue can solve the problem of ticketing along the lane, Cycle Manoa’s director said. In early September, 10 cyclists

reported incidents of ticketing at the intersection of Alapa‘ i Street and South King Street by the Frank S. Fasi Municipal Building, a short distance away from the Honolulu Police Department (HPD) downtown. The cyclists were ticketed for using the sidewalk after that particular section of bike lane had

versity Avenue isn’t entirely motivated to make any changes.” A few reasons cyclists may avoid the bike lane and opt for the sidewalk include the quality of the road, as well as if cyclists feel protected from motorists and road conditions, Hicks said. Conditions like that of the asphalt in areas by East West Road and University Avenue or the hectic atmosphere by the H1 on and offramps all may cause a cyclist to choose the sidewalk when there is no bike lane.

a viable option anymore,” Mascioli said. “Since the implementation of the Waialae Avenue bike lane, King Street cycle track and other routes, it has become much safer to get around the city.” TICKETING AND BIKE LAWS

The HPD officer who ticketed the cyclists on King Street was acting in accordance with the law that says cyclists are not allowed to ride on the sidewalk, especially in areas like Waikīkī or downtown Honolulu where pedestrian traffic is heavy. As far as Hawai‘i state law goes, bicycles are considered vehicles of the road. The tickets issued to those riding on the sidewalk by Alapa‘ i Street and South King Street were for $72. Like the tickets for motor

vehicles, the cost of the ticket depends on the offense. Cyclists can be cited for the same amount for offenses as cars. For example, besides getting a ticket for riding on a sidewalk, cyclists can also get a ticket for running a red light or reckless endangerment, which is considered a misdemeanor. Ka Leo O Hawai‘i MORE INFO

LAWS TRAFFIC LAWS APPLY TO PEOPLE RIDING A BIKE: Everyone riding a bike on the road will be afforded the same rights and subject to the same duties as those of regular motorists. NO TAG-ALONGS: No biker can attach the bike to any other vehicle or vice versa. WEAR A HELMET: Anyone under 16 years of age must wear a helmet. Children in restraining seats must wear helmets. TWO HANDS PLEASE: A biker must not carry items that would hinder him or her from use of both hands. RIDE ON THE RIGHT: Bikers must ride on the righthand side of the road, moving in the same direction of traffic, as close to the curb as is safe. SIT ON YOUR BIKE SEAT OR ELSE: A person riding a bike can only ride upon or astride a permanent and regular seat attached to the bike.

UH kicks off Warrior Club Challenge KEVIN HARRISON STAFF WRITER

The Pacific Asian Center for Entrepreneurship (PACE) and the campus Athletics department have created a challenge to increase attendance at the UH vs. Fresno State football game on Nov. 14, and give UH organizations the chance to win cash prizes. The Warrior Club Challenge is open to all UH Mānoa Registered Independent Organizations (RIO’s) and gives groups an opportunity to win $2,000 in one of three categories: most participation, most creative and most spirited. However, RIO’s are encouraged to enter all three categories, according to Tracy Taira, a program manager for PACE. “Hopefully by this event [students will] see that going to games is fun and hopefully students who have never been to a football game will come out and experience it for the first time and want to come

back to future games,” said Krystal Lee, a program manager for PACE. Registration can be completed on the Warrior Club Challenge website and closes on Oct. 31, 2015. THE CHALLENGE

The most participation category will be based on the RIO that gets the most students to attend the game on behalf of their RIO, according to PACE officials. “Most creative will be based off a video they need to submit which is going to be them explaining their strategy to get students to attend the tailgate and game,” Taira said. PACE said the most spirited category tasks clubs with creating a 90-second, original UH cheer that can be done at any UH Mānoa sporting event. “Our basic goal is to get students to work collaboratively together, think through problems critically, to have to communicate with each other and be creative,” Taira said.

Taira said that PACE will be sending all video submissions to UH Mānoa Athletics to share what students came up with. “We’re hoping if it’s a really good strategy that it’s something the athletics department can implement,” Lee said.

ever, is a different endeavor and the prize money has doubled from $1,000 in previous years to $2,000. UH Mānoa alumni and PACE program coordinator Charles Yoo said the increase in prize money makes the challenge more competitive.

A NEW GOAL

PACE said that it will be partnering with UH Athletics, Mānoa Maniacs and the Associated Students of the University of Hawai‘ i. PACE has also reached out to local businesses to sponsor the event, according to Taira. She said the local business community is excited to support the challenge. Lee said that the challenge’s corporate sponsors will be providing giveaways for the tailgate that will be handled by a raffle. “If students come to the tailgate then we’re going to have airfare, tickets, Hydro Flasks, iPads; all gifts through our corporate sponsors,” PACE officials said.

Taira said that PACE tries to encourage students to be entrepreneurial and sees football attendance as a problem for the campus and community that requires an entrepreneurial approach. Taira said that PACE has always had a creativity and entrepreneurship challenge in the past, but they have never attempted a challenge on this scale. She said that PACE’s goal is get an additional 1,000 students to attend the game. Taira said that previous creativity challenges saw RIO’s competing to use everyday objects to earn money.

COVER STORY

NextError Three reasons why the NextEra/HECO merger would be wrong for Hawai‘i

JEFF KIM STAFF WRITER

Where does Hawai‘i’s electricity come from? For the past 124 years, it was Hawaiian Electric Company’s (HECO) responsibility to provide us with power. For the last nine months, though, the Public Utilities Commission has been debating over whether or not to allow Florida utilities company NextEra to acquire HECO. The move, however, would be a critical mistake. Here are three reasons why.

FRACKING HYPOCRISY

SO LONG, SOLAR

NO POWER TO THE PEOPLE

NextEra prides itself on ”standing for clean energy.” Yet in 2014, 68 percent of its power generation in Florida was from liquefied natural gas (LNG). The company claims it’s better for the environment than other fossil fuels like coal and oil. “When you burn [LNG], it is much cleaner than coal, that’s true,” said Elliot Van Wie, Executive Committee member of the O‘ahu Group for Sierra Club Hawai‘i. “If you factor in the [methane] just pouring into the air at the site of extraction, it’s much more polluting than coal.” LNG is made from shale gas, extracted through a process called fracking. With methane being up to 86 times more harmful than CO2, fracking accelerates climate change beyond what coal and oil can do. “Any time and money spent on LNG is time and money not spent on renewable energy,” Gov. Ige said at the Asia-Pacific Resilience Innovation Summit & Expo last August. Outside of its impact on the environment, investing in fracking is an economic gamble at best. In 2012, the Energy Information Agency predicted that the Monterey Shale Formation would produce 13.7 billion barrels of oil, only to reduce it by 96 percent two years later. The International Energy Agency similarly ate their own words when their 2014 report predicted U.S. oil production would drop in the 2020s, while in 2012 they had predicted shale oil would turn the U.S. into a leader in global oil production. Why is NextEra so committed to a fuel source with a bleak future? Fracking is America’s last attempt to be fossil fuel-independent. The less foreign oil, the more money for U.S. corporations.

Hawai‘ i likes solar energy. We like it so much that we generate more solar energy per capita than any state in the country. And why wouldn’t we? Hawai‘ i has the highest electricity rates in America (about three times the national average), and more solar means lower bills. NextEra, however, doesn’t seem to like solar. In fact, NextEra doesn’t seem to like renewable energy, period. In 2014, the company generated less than one percent of its energy from solar power and used no other renewable energy sources. Despite being the “Sunshine State” and averaging more sunny days per year than Hawai‘ i, Florida only produces 3.5 percent of the solar power that Hawai‘ i does per capita. Florida is also one of only five states that made it illegal for anyone but a utility company to sell solar energy. This is no accident. NextEra works hard to ensure their state’s politicians act in the company’s best interest. In the 2012 election cycle alone, NextEra (under their subsidiary Florida Power and Light) gave $2.6 million in campaign donations. “Those donations allow the power companies to keep pro-solar bills from getting anywhere,” said Florida state Rep. Dwight Dudley to the Miami Herald. What reason does NextEra have for conducting business in Hawai‘ i any differently?

In a non-scientific August Honolulu Star-Advertiser poll, over 70 percent of participants said HECO should be publicly owned. Hawai‘ i wants a publicly owned grid and they want it for a good reason. “The way utilities are set up is problematic: it is a state sponsored monopoly that’s supposed to serve the public interest and yet they are compensated, paid more for essentially the more electricity they sell,” said Robert Harris, former director of Sierra Club Hawai‘ i. Ultimately, an investor-owned utility wants to please its investors. For NextEra, that means answering to non-Hawai‘i residents who aren’t directly interested in the state’s welfare. Publicly owned utilities, however, are local entities that operate to meet ratepayers’ needs. According to a 2013 study conducted by the American Public Power Association, the national average residential rate for publicly owned utilities was 11.9 percent cheaper than investor-owned utilities. Publicly owned utilities are democratically controlled by the people and will make decisions in the people’s interest. HECO is an investor-owned utility like NextEra. If HECO is a corporate monopoly giant, however, then NextEra is a behemoth. For the second quarter of 2015, HECO made $35 million. For NextEra, that number is $716 million. Twenty times the financial power means 20 times the resources to lobby for its purposes. NextEra hires about 33 lobbyists per year: there is at least one lobbyist for each of the 27 state representatives. Naturally, they get what they want.

FRACKING EXPLAINED Fracking is short for “hydraulic fracturing” – a process for extracting natural gas from porous underground layers. It involves pressure-injecting water mixed with sand and mineral-decomposing chemicals. Once in the ground, the sand grains keep the pores open while the water is pumped out, followed by the gas. At the end, the polluted water is injected back underground and sealed.

DRAWING THE LINE Henry Curtis, who serves on the PUC Reliability Standards Working Group, called the potential buyout “the biggest and most complex proceeding the state has ever dealt with.” The matter, however, is simple: HECO is failing, and NextEra is giving it a $4.3 billion lifeline. The problem is that NextEra shows no signs that it’s interested in pursuing what the people of Hawai‘i want: renewable options and publicly owned utilities. “We need an electric company that sees Hawai‘ i as the center of its work...” Gov. David Ige said in a press release from July.

If a merger is really what Hawai‘ i needs, then we should find a company that has demonstrated a legitimate commitment to serving its ratepayers. NextEra, unfortunately, is a wolf in sheep’s skin–hiding greed behind a thin veil of “clean” energy. The Public Utilities Commission will be presenting a hearing on Oct. 27 at 6 p.m. at McKinley High School (1039 S. King St.). It will be open for the public to voice opinions on the acquisition. PUC will not be looking for testimony, citations or reasons for your opinion – that will be for the evidentiary hearing starting Nov. 30. All they want to know is “yes” or “no.” SOURCE: KENT NISHIMURA / KA LEO O HAWAI‘I; ILLUSTRATIONS BY JOELYN DALIT

RUMOR REPORTING

UH parking, citation fee increases not that bad

2007 VIRGINIA TECH SHOOTING

One to nine casualties were initially reported by the Associated Press an hour after the shooting ended. The final death report counted 33 dead (including the shooter) and 23 injured. During coverage, the killer was misidentified, and a photo of the incorrect suspect was circulated on television and the Internet. In a video mailed to NBC, the shooter referred to the 1999 Columbine High School shooters as “martyrs” and is considered a copycat killer.

EDITORIAL STAFF

If students can afford to maintain a car and pay for gas, the 10 percent parking increase set to begin next summer should not be a problem. The University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa is proposing a 10 percent fee increase for student parking permits that will start on July 1, 2016, followed by a yearly incremental increase of five percent in each of the next four years. Parking citations and fines for parking in unlawful areas will be issued by the UH Office of Campus Services and are proposed to increase from $15 to $40. Speeding and damage fines will both be increased to around $100. Students should compromise with the price change because the school has to accommodate the ever-increasing financial budgets for the different departments and Commuter Services. Overshooting their past yearly revenue is a convenient solution, if we want to avoid raising tuition fees. At the same time, it’s fair that the price will only apply to those who drive, including all faculty and staff. Commuter Services can no longer be self-sustaining in covering the costs of damages to signs, lots, structures and roads. One benefit of the increased prices is that they would better cover the operating expenses of the office. On the flip side, we should expect faster and more efficient repairs to the structures. Constant flooding and murky drip water from the lower parking structure’s ceiling are unfortunate and we should expect it to be fixed after the fee increase. ABOUT OUR VOICE

2012 SANDY HOOK ELEMENTARY SCHOOL SHOOTING

Fanning the flames How news organizations create hysteria with mass killing coverage PHOTO ILLUSTRATION BY JOELYN DALIT / KA LEO O HAWAI‘I

BRAD DELL MANAGING EDITOR

When I opened social media on Thursday morning, news networks informed me that a 20-year-old with the username “Eggman” on forum website 4chan killed 15 students and injured 20 others at Umpqua Community College in Oregon. Most of this is false. The story gathered as of Oct. 2 is that it was a 26-year-old, he was not 4chan user “Eggman,” and he killed 10 students while injuring seven others. At a press conference, Sheriff John Hanlin of Douglas County said, “Let me be very clear, I will not

Revealed.” Something similar happened to Ryan Lanza, who was misidentified as the shooter at Sandy Hook Elementary School, and to Sunil Tripathi, who was misidentified as the 2013 Boston Marathon bombing suspect. The most-told joke in the journalism community is: “If your mother says she loves you, check it out.” News organizations need to confirm all information before publishing it. Punditfact, a fact-checking organization, collects statements given by three leading news networks: NBC, Fox News and CNN. The site fact checks these statements (a different number of statements for each network) and has found that 43 per-

News organizations have forgotten a core principle of journalism: With great power comes great responsibility. name the shooter. I will not give him the credit he probably sought prior to this horrific and cowardly act.” Minutes later, the shooter’s name was published by many news networks. It seems that news organizations have become so obsessed with getting the biggest audience and the fastest scoops that they’ve forgotten a core principle of journalism: With great power comes great responsibility. FAST, INCORRECT INFORMATION

Imagine waking up in the morning, going on the Internet and seeing a photo of you with the headline “Identity of Killing Suspect

cent of NBC’s statements, 58 percent of Fox News’ statements and 24 percent of CNN’s statements are false. News organizations need to be more cautious when publishing information to avoid harming both their credibility and the credibility of others. The spread of misinformation doesn’t help the already-chaotic situation. GIVING THEM WHAT THEY WANT

Deny the shooters the fame that they crave. Publishing the names and photos of suspects should be avoided. In the mid-1980s in Vienna, journalists covered people who jumped in front of subways to

commit suicide. As a result, the number of those taking their own lives increased. The following campaign advocating that reporters avoid extensive coverage of the topic brought an 80 percent decrease in subway suicides and suicide attempts six months after its beginning. Using this model, a group of health organizations created guidelines for the media to follow when reporting on suicides to decrease the number of “copycats.” The bottom line is that suicides shouldn’t be glamorized, dramatized or extensively covered. Mass killing coverage should be given similar guidelines. The public should know that mass killings have taken place, but it is not necessary to report on every detail of the killers’ lives. The Daily Beast chose instead to report on the efforts of Chris Mintz, who was shot five times while trying to stop the Oregon shooter on Thursday. People like him deserve the fame, not the shooters. When the media publishes the manifestos of killers, people analyze every detail of their lives and every minute of the attack. It’s no wonder there is a 20 to 30 percent increase in mass killings in the 13 days following a similar mass killing, according to a study published in the Public Library of Science journal, PLoS ONE. News organizations: Getting more web page views or a bigger audience isn’t worth the lives of others. Be patient, be accurate and be minimal in coverage. What do you think? Let us know @KaLeoOOpinions

News outlets reported two shooters when there was only one; he was misidentified as his brother, and the innocent’s photo was published on news sites and on television. The shooter was said to have confronted teachers at the school four days before, an event that never occurred. The shooter’s mother was reported to be a teacher at the school when she was not. Initially, media reported two deaths, including the shooter. The final death report, however, counted 28 dead, including the shooter and his mother, and two injured. The shooter created a spreadsheet that listed 500 shooters and how many people they killed, so he is considered a copycat killer. 2012 AURORA, COLORADO THEATER SHOOTING

Fourteen dead and 50 injured were reported three hours after the shooting. The final death report counted 12 dead and 70 injured. ABC reported that the shooter had connections to the Tea Party, a claim that was later disproven when it was discovered the social media account that this “connection” was found on belonged to another man of the same name as the shooter in Aurora. There have been two planned theater attacks and two carried out since the Aurora theater shooting, two of which criminal profiler Pete Klismet classified as copycat crimes. 2013 BOSTON MARATHON BOMBING

Five more explosive devices were reported to be found in Boston following the bombing, which turned out to be false. A third bombing was reported at the JFK Library in Boston – this was false. The suspects were misidentified and photographs and names of innocent men were published by the media, who got the false information from users on Reddit who claimed to have discovered the bombing suspects’ identities.

Much ado about pineapples What the ‘Foreign Fruit’ exhibition says about identity

Positioned in front of a bright blue backdrop is the artist – a young blonde woman defaced by pieces of torn-up pineapple skin. Kelly Ciurej’s photography exhibit, titled “Foreign Fruit,” is a series of self-portraits that explore the relationships between one’s sense of self, place and identity. The 24-year-old Chicago-born and raised graduate student said that when she envisioned Hawai‘i, one of the first images that came to her mind was the pineapple. “I was researching how [the pineapple] is not really indigenous here,

doors of the white-walled Commons Gallery in the Art Building. At the front of the gallery are three pineapples displayed on a pedestal as if they are art objects. Ciurej explained that this series critiques the romanticized view of Hawai‘i as a vacation destination. Prior to moving to Honolulu in 2014 to pursue a master’s in fine arts degree in photography, her vision of Hawai‘i was modeled by the images of breathtaking vistas, beaches and commoditized cultural elements heavily used in tourism advertisements. Apocrypha, meaning “of doubtful authenticity,” is used to describe fictitious stories circu-

and it brought up a lot of questions about perceptions of place and what reality really is,” Ciurej said. The photos document a performance of Ciurej grappling with the fruit and attempting to perfectly arrange it onto the surface of her face like a mask. The photographs, taken with a Nikon D610 digital camera, were printed in true-to-life size, neatly lined up like a film strip and arranged in the chronological sequence they were shot in. The intoxicatingly sweet pineapple scent hits the viewers as soon as they walk through the double

lated as truth. Debunking the myth of the pineapple as a native fruit of Hawai‘ i was just one of the pivotal points of Ciurej’s conceptual process of this series. After purchasing a pineapple in Hawai‘ i, she noticed that unlike in Chicago, a tag was attached to the crown of the fruit. The tag identified the pineapple as a Dole pineapple. Though the pineapple has a significant place in the history of these islands, it is not the state fruit. In fact, Hawai‘i has not indicated an official state fruit. “Most people who aren’t from

here and don’t know the history think that pineapples are from Hawai‘ i and that they were originally grown here,” Ciurej said. The pineapple is part of a regime of stereotypical images used to lure tourists to Hawai‘i. After going through the TSA checkpoint, visitors departing Honolulu are able to purchase boxes of pineapples at Honolulu International Airport as souvenirs reminding them of their perfect vacation. Through a long-established history in Hawai‘ i, pineapples have become associated with the marketing of Hawai‘ i as an idyllic paradise. Even the Hawaiian word for pineapple is indicative of the plant’s status as introduced rather than indigenous, with “hala kāhiki,” as the original word for pineapple. Citing American photographer Cindy Sherman as a huge influence on her artistic practice, Ciurej expressed her admiration for Sherman’s technical process in the way she challenges how people view photographs. According to the artist, this series of self-portraits reflect the overwhelming feelings she experienced moving to Hawai‘i, throwing herself into a new culture and place. She described the act of fitting in and altering the pineapple halves to fit her face as “messy, imperfect and distorted” to illustrate the imaginative version clashing with the reality of what living in Hawai‘ i is like. Ciurej uses what she describes as “humor and strangeness” to cope with the shock of identity displacement that she experienced after moving from Chicago. During her research process, she came across

the Hawaiian word for pineapple and immediately took to its English translation, which inspired the title of this series. Although “Foreign Fruit” is based on her experience adapting to a new place, Ciurej said that this piece has made her rethink of home. “Taking myself out of that place really helped me see the work that I’m making is really about my origin and my identity elsewhere,” Ciurej said. “I think that’s pretty interesting because I’ve lived in Chicago my whole life so I’m glad that it’s taking that turn so I can explore the place that I’ve known the longest. At first, I’m making these images that are pretty symbolic of this place but then they started to shift to subtly refer to my identity and home.” “Foreign Fruit” is a reminder that

identities are not fixed and are always evolving. As we migrate to unfamiliar places to pursue new opportunities and adventures, we challenge ourselves through the displacement of a sense of belonging. Perhaps this series encourages viewers that despite incongruities felt while endeavoring a new transition in life, with patience and the passing of time, one finds his or her rightful place, and eventually a history begins to write itself.

College life hacks ERYN YUASA STAFF WRITER

Nobody said getting a college degree would be easy. Thankfully, there are quick and easy life hacks to make the journey easier.

hanger you can get at any store. Use scissors or your hands to break the center of the hanger. Once the middle is split, you can slide a paper towel roll through it and hang it anywhere. This saves desk space by making it portable and easy to hang.

CURING A BORING BOOK

You have three more chapters of your textbook to get through before your quiz tomorrow, and you can’t read a single paragraph without nodding off. To get through this, use snacks as an incentive to finish each chapter. You can use anything from gummies to M&M’s (we recommend staying away from li hing mui-covered foods to avoid ruining expensive textbooks). For maximum results, choose healthy foods like almonds, which lowers the risk of heart disease. Depending on how much you have to read and how much motivation you have, distribute the snacks on the page. After you finish a paragraph or a page, you get to eat the snack. It provides encouragement to read and helps you avoid snacking out of boredom.

LAST-MINUTE AIR FRESHENER

This is perfect for when your friends come over for a surprise visit. If your room smells like last night’s take-out or the laundry you’ve been putting off for weeks, you can fix it using a fan or air conditioner and a dryer sheet. Take the dryer sheet and hold it over the fan or air conditioner for one to two minutes, and your room will smell fresh. TINY MICROWAVE

College students often live on microwavable foods, so it’s convenient to microwave two things at once. Put one object on the surface of the microwave as you normally would, then place a cup next to it. The cup will give you a place to put another food dish. This creates different height levels, giving you more space within the microwave to use at once.

DIY PAPER TOWEL RACK

Hands covered in snack crumbs? All you need to create a paper towel rack is a regular clothes

RESTORING CRISP

Pizza makes great leftovers, but the soggy crust of days-old pizza can

ruin the taste. When you microwave a slice of pizza place it next to a mug filled with warm water. The water will absorb the sogginess, and you’ll end up with pizza that tastes like it came straight out of the oven. AUDACITY AND LECTURES

You might thank your professors for posting videos or recordings of them lecturing, until those lectures are three and a half hours long. To solve this issue, use a free audio editing program like Audacity to speed the recordings up. Upload the sound bite to Audacity and then go to “Effects” and “Change Tempo.” Depending on the speed the lecturer was talking, you can increase the speed by 25 to 30 percent and cut valuable time out of listening. To download Audacity, visit audacityteam.org.

IKAIKA SHIVELEY / KA LEO O HAWAI‘I 

Place snacks on the page as an incentive to get you through your reading.

CUP AMP

BEAT THE HEAT

When whatever you’re listening to has low volume, use a plastic cup to increase the volume and fix it. For phones, place the phone inside the cup with the speaker down, and the music will be amplified. For tablets, cut out a small hole into the cup iand place the cup over your device’s speakers to amplify the sound.

There are lots of different solutions to fix the temperature in your dorm room. One is a makeshift air conditioner. To do this, take a bucket of ice and place it in front of a fan to cool down your room. Hang a damp towel or washcloth over the windows of your room. Another reason you’re feeling hot may be because you’ve been using your computer for too long and it’s

overheating while on your lap. To prevent the bottom of the laptop from burning your legs, grab an old take-out drink container and flip it over on your lap. Put your laptop on this, and you’ll have separation between yourself and the hot surface. You can also put one of your big textbooks to use and set that between your legs and computer.

The 5 people you meet at the gym IKAIKA SHIVELEY / ASSOCIATE FEATURES EDITOR

THE FAKERS

THE MEATHEADS

THE LAGGARDS

THE NOOBS

THE HOGGERS

Claims such as, “Bro, like I did 10 reps of two plates on the bench last week; you should have been there, bro,” is a norm for these people. who constantly exaggerate their weightlifting capability. If only they could lift a weight equal to their ego-filled head, the gym would be a much happier, gruntier and testosterone-driven place. Whether it’s the opposite sex or a rival that walks by while they’re on the treadmill, they’ll increase the speed to a level that not even Usain Bolt could sprint. Don’t be surprised if they faint from exhaustion.

Located on the second floor of the Warrior Rec Center, they can be found using only free weights as they attempt their best CT Fletcher impression. Resistance machines are a no-go, and they wouldn’t be caught dead doing cardio on the track. With a double scoop of pre-workout, which was directly ingested without water, these meatheads scream “I’m an animal!” as they perform their reps. The only thing they love more than a good pump is the reflection of themselves while wearing cut-out tops that resemble spaghetti straps. You’ll notice them kissing a wallet photo of their hero Arnold Schwarzenegger before each rep.

After spending hundreds of dollars on matching gear, they’ll enter the gym with their makeup on fleek or gelled hair they don’t plan to sweat off. With the lowest setting on the treadmill, they can keep their vision from bouncing as they watch television on the monitors. Workouts performed are lower back and abs, when they bend down to drink water for the 15th time. The only “beast mode” that occurs is a selfie stick-equipped montage of snapchats and Instagrams to pass the time. In order to appear as though they are warming up, they will tie their shoes and stretch. After several trips up and down the stairs, it’s time to hit the showers.

College can put a toll on not just the mind but the body too. When we push our boundaries past acceptable limits, the result is a lifestyle change. Unlike the gym rats, who enter with a gym bag filled with supplements and protein powder, these individuals come prepared with only a small hand towel. Afraid of being judged by the bodybuilders, the noobs stay away from the dumbbells and stick to the first floor machines or the track. Though they may not know exactly what they are doing, they have the determination for self improvement – for health purposes or to escape the friend zone.

It’s biceps day, so you head to the dumbbell rack, but notice that they have vanished. You realize they are scattered along the floor. Unfortunately, they belong to every gym members’ enemy – the hogger. This person has a workout routine that calls for every piece of equipment from barbells to jump ropes. You would ask to use one of their unused dumbbells; however their enormous Beats headphones will block out the loudest of yelling. These individuals leave a stream of sweat on the benches that resembles Niagara Falls.

‘How D’Angelo Russell aims to make an early impression in the NBA’

D’Angelo Russell is the highest drafted player by the Lakers since 1982. RASHAWN WONG STAFF WRITER

The NBA is no stranger to “one-and-done” college players. Throughout the years there has a multitude of players to come straight out of college or even high school and prove to be effective in the league. A league once dominated by big time, seasoned collegiate athletes is slowly turning into a young man’s game. Enter rookie Los Angeles Laker point guard D’Angelo Russell. The Louisville, Kentucky native led the 2015 Ohio State Buckeyes

fro him to see his dream become a reality. “It’s crazy man,” said Russell, “You take it slow and then you just adapt to whatever’s new. Being at this level is something you always dream of so when you get here you just have to adapt and treat it like it’s a normal thing when it’s really not.” The Lakers, a team that had its worst season in franchise history this past year, took a chance on drafting the 19-year-old point guard out of Ohio State second in the first round of the NBA draft. A risky move that left fans and critics alike baffled, especially since Jah-

men’s basketball team to the second round of the NCAA tournament. Despite the early exit from the ‘big dance,’ Russell had accomplished his personal goal of leaving a mark on the college hardcourt and making his name known. He decided to take the gamble of entering the NBA draft and it didn’t take long

lil Okafor, a seven-foot center out of Duke University, was available for selection. Being the first point guard to be picked in the NBA draft, Russell was left with a bullseye on his back. Everyone who is anyone in the basketball world tuned in to see how this rookie faired in sum-

mer league action, where he would average 11.8 points per game and 3.2 assists – significantly less than the 19.3 points and 5 assist he averaged with the Buckeyes. With the NBA regular season less than four weeks away, the Lakers have kicked off their training camp in Honolulu, Hawai‘ i. Training camp is where players like Russell compete for minutes, attempt to impress coaches and really get in shape for the grit and grind of an 82-game NBA season. Russell continues to use a combination of nifty handles, slick passes and lock-down defense to impress head coach Byron Scott and stand out on the roster. “He looked good,” Scott said after practice. “Conditioning wise, he looked good [and] he shot the ball extremely well. On the defensive end, just working on some of the things we want him to do on that end of the floor his communication, understanding, feedback and where he needs to be I thought were good. With Russell and some of our young people and just overall the team, I was very happy.” The Lakers happen to be one of the most historic franchises in the NBA, not to mention they also have a five-time NBA champion Kobe Bryant. This is something that

hasn’t been easy for Russell to deal with, but it’s something he is growing more comfortable with as time goes by. “You try to keep it off your mind like ‘yo [Bryant] is right beside you running a three-man drill,’” Russell. “[It’s] something you have to get past if you want to be the best you can be you, [I] have to look at him as a mentor – not look at him as a fan.” Russell may have been starstruck his first time playing with Bryant, but his play left an impression on the player he emulates. “[Russell] loves the game you know … when you have a player that loves the game, it’s really just my responsibility to make sure he never loses sight of that in difficult moments and even the great moments,” said 17-time NBA allstar Kobe Bryant. “He has a lot of poise out there, very calm under duress, doesn’t seem really phased by much.” Amidst the distractions that come with being an NBA player, Russell hasn’t forgotten that he is in a position that people his age can only dream about. At 19 years old, he is the youngest player on the Lakers roster with the biggest expectations surrounding him. Ka Leo O Hawai‘i

Eran Ganot hopes to establish his own culture at UH

The No. 10 Rainbow Wahine continued their torrid start in big West conference play with road sweeps of Cal State Fullerton and UC Riverside on consecutive nights. The ‘Bows start their six-game conference homestead on Friday, Oct. 9 against CSUN. First serve is set for 7 p.m. at the Stan Sheriff Center.

This is Ganot’s first head coaching job. CHRISTIAN SHIMABUKU ASSOCIATE SPORTS EDITOR

Although a fresh start is seen by many to be a rare occurence, it is something that the University of Hawai’i men’s basketball team has become accustomed to. Last Friday, the Rainbow Warriors held their first official practice of the 2015-2016 season at the Stan Sheriff Center. After a turbulent 2014-2015 season, the ‘Bows find themselves playing for their third head coach in a year in Eran Ganot. Although Ganot was an assistant on the UH men’s staff from 2006-2010, things are different this time. In his previous stint with UH, the ‘Bows went a combined 52-69 over four seasons. This year, he inherits the vast majority of a team that was one win away from an NCAA tournament berth. Before being appointed head coach at UH, Ganot was part of the coaching staff at St. Mary’s College in California, a perennial mid-major powerhouse. While he hopes to replicate that success at UH, Ganot wants to do it his way. “Continue to establish a foundation. … I think we’ve done a pretty good job of that in the fall with the preseason and now we’re starting to put some more stuff in our offense and defense, getting together, who we’re playing off and those kind of actions,” Ganot said. “It’s an exciting time, you can feel it, and we’re looking forward to getting started.” Ganot did not shy away from his

… I like it personally. It makes us get it right. If we don’t get it right, we’re on the line and so it makes us be out there and get it right the first time so we don’t have to run at all.” In spite of Ganot’s efforts to be more organized with the X’s and O’s, he wants the team to keep its competitive spirit. However, he hopes the team can keep their emotions in check come game time. Last year’s team saw the ‘Bows get sidetracked by technical fouls on multiple occasions. “We don’t want to be the team that leads the league in technicals,” You gotta be Ganot said. “Coaches and players, we want to be accountable and emotional, you great composure all the time. gotta love what we have You gotta be emotional, you gotta love what we do, but you gotta have do, but you gotta it in balance.” have it in balance.
