Handling domestic violence at BYUH

A

s the world watches singers Chris Brown and Rhianna deal with violence in their relationship, BYU-Hawaii is working to FUHDWH D Ă&#x20AC;UP SROLF\ RQ 'RPHVWLF Violence here on campus.

It is admittedly a problem, according to members of the schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s administration. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Domestic violence happens on campus,â&#x20AC;? said Associate Vice President for Instruction Chad Compton. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Over the years I have been at BYU-Hawaii, I have been aware of cases that involve domestic violence. We are all imperfect individuals and we bring those imperfections with us to campus. I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a rare thing, but domestic violence does happen here.â&#x20AC;?

Leilani Auna, who works in the Counseling Center on campus, explained how domestic violence is not only physical violence but also the threat of violence to control another person. This can range from limiting access to funds to fullblown beatings. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A person should never have to live in fear in their own home. A home is supposed to be a safe place,â&#x20AC;? said Auna. She goes on to advise, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Once youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been hit in your relationship, it will get worse. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think it wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t happen again.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;A lot of times, people donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t leave [the relationship] because they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know where to go,â&#x20AC;? added Auna, who said BYUH has not established

If anyone feels endangered, they can contact intervention specialist Sherri Edgar-Hansen at (808) 266-0625. â&#x20AC;&#x153;a place to goâ&#x20AC;? for anyone that might feel abused in their relationship. But the community provides such a place, the Salvation Army Family Treatment Center, a shelter for women who feel threatened or afraid in their homes.

Sherri Edgar-Hansen, senior in social work from Eugene, Oregon, works as a volunteer oncall intervention specialist. She goes to the homes of women who need help and takes them somewhere safe. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have worked with women (students) who have been involved with domestic violence,â&#x20AC;? said Edgar-Hansen. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The main problem is that it goes straight to the bishop and then it goes to the Counseling Center and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s where it stops.

ith midterm season in full sway, stress levels have the potential to steadily increase. Students are only asked to do their best on exams, but preparation for these tests can sometimes lead to unhealthy stress levels.

Fortunately, many students on campus have found their own ways of handling stress so that they stay calm and healthy during the testing season. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When I feel that I have a lot of stress, it helps me to just sit down, take a break and watch a

of the church and school are not really willing to look at resources in the community. During the time that I have been doing this kind of work in Hawaii, we have never received any calls from the Counseling Center.â&#x20AC;?

Security Chief Hans Taala agreed, saying, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Often, a bishop will be called, or no one will be told. It will be referred to the Counseling Center if it becomes criminal.â&#x20AC;?

The Honor Code plays a crucial role in facilitating change in people who are abusive to their spouse because it is one of the few areas on campus that is able to enforce consequences for abuVLYH EHKDYLRU EXW WKHUH LV QR Ă&#x20AC;UP SROLF\ There is a zero tolerance policy for any sort of physical violence on campus, except with domestic violence. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If a student is involved in assault and battery or any other form of physical abuse, that student is automatically suspended for 12 months. But there are more considerations given with a situation involving a married couple,â&#x20AC;? said 0HOL /HVXPD KHDG RI WKH +RQRU &RGH 2IĂ&#x20AC;FH â&#x20AC;&#x153;We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to penalize the abused partner.â&#x20AC;?

7KH &RXQVHOLQJ &HQWHU +RQRU &RGH 2IĂ&#x20AC;FH DQG 6HFXULW\ 2IĂ&#x20AC;FH DUH WKH WULR RI RUJDQL]DWLRQV that deals with this problem and they all say the same thing: â&#x20AC;&#x153;A letter will be sent.â&#x20AC;?

Unfortunately this means there are few resources being provided to those families that need help. But, if you, or anyone you know, are involved in an abusive relationship of any kind, you should make every effort to help these people through the Counseling Center.

P ABOVE: President Barack Obama speaks during a visit to Camp Lejeune, N.C., Friday, Feb. 27, 2009. Obama moved to JYP½PP XLI HI½RMRK TVSQMWI SJ LMW GEQTEMKR ERRSYRGMRK XLEX all U.S. combat troops will be withdrawn by September 2010.

resident Barack Obama addressed the subjects of energy, education, and health care with the nation during an address at Camp Lejeune, N.C. on Feb. 24. He talked in depth about all these subjects, but the heart of his speech came near the beginning: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Tonight I want every American to know this: We will rebuild, we will recover, and the United States of America will emerge stronger than beforeâ&#x20AC;Ś What is required now is for this country to pull together, confront boldly the challenges we face, and take responsibility for our future once more.â&#x20AC;?

He mentioned the recent passing of the stimulus plan, which he said was important in jump-starting the economy, but it would not be enough. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Now is the timeâ&#x20AC;Śto not only revive this economy, but to build a new foundation for lasting prosperity,â&#x20AC;?

Obama said, and continued, â&#x20AC;&#x153;the budget I submit will invest in the three areas that are absolutely critical to our economic future: energy, health care, and education.â&#x20AC;?

The President addressed the need for America to lead the industry in green technologies, and that SDUW RI WKH HFRQRPLF VWLPXOXV ZDV VHW DVLGH VSHFLĂ&#x20AC;cally for this purpose. He said the automotive sector would need to become more environmentally friendly in order to have government aid and to be competitive in the world.

The President could not say what the details of

the health care reform would be, but he did say that it would be done with the goal of â&#x20AC;&#x153;quality, affordable health care for every American.â&#x20AC;?

The third challenge he addressed was the need for education, saying, â&#x20AC;&#x153;In a global economy where the most valuable skill you can sell is your knowledge, a good education is no longer just a pathway to opportunity â&#x20AC;&#x201C; it is a pre-requisite.â&#x20AC;? The main education reform goal: for America to have the highest proportion of college graduates in the world by 2020.

President Obama placed pressure on Congress to make laws that would improve the quality of education, make it more affordable, and discussed the importance of families beginning the education process in the home, stating, â&#x20AC;&#x153;In the end, there is no program or policy that can substitute for a mother or father who will attend those parent/teacher conferences, or help with homework after dinner, or turn off the TV, put away the video games, and read to their child. I speak to you not just as a president, but as a father when I say that responsibility for our childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s education must begin at home.â&#x20AC;?

Finally, Obama stressed that making deep and lasting changes to the way the economy is run and organized must be done in a spirit of unity and perseverance. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; CHRIS DEAN AND THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Elder Stephen Biddulph, from the Student Development Center, also  gave some helpful tips in  trying to avoid or  handle stress. â&#x20AC;&#x153;First, to avoid stress, it would be best if you, as a student, managed your time wisely to Ă&#x20AC;W LQ WKH ULJKW DPRXQW RI UHOD[LQJ DQG VWXG\LQJ The second thing to do to avoid stress is to attend class regularly and stay up to date with your school work. The last thing that would help avoid stress is to ask for help early from an instructor or professor,â&#x20AC;? said Biddulph. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If faced with stress, students should try their best to relax. Students should also eat a healthy diet, get the right amount of sleep, believe in themselves, live the gospel so that the Holy Ghost can bring them peace and, if needed, go see a counselor for assistance in handling their stress,â&#x20AC;? added Biddulph. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; AUSTIN COOK photo by AARON KNUDSEN

Mother of 6 becomes mother of 14

O

nly two sets of octuplets have ever been delivered in the United States, the latest of which was recently delivered Jan. 26, 2009.

In spite of being delivered nine weeks early, each child was born alive and well, thanks to a team of 52 medical professionals that helped in the delivery process. They are continuing to receive neonatal care at .DLVHU 3HUPDQHQWH¡V %HOOĂ RZHU 0HGLFDO &HQWHU ORFDWHG LQ %HOOĂ RZHU &DOLI ZKHUH WKH EDELHV ZHUH ERUQ 0DQGKLU *XSWD 0' QHRQDWRORJLVW DW WKH %HOOĂ RZHU Medical Center said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;At one month old, the babies are doing well. They are alert and responsive to the care our nurses are providing them. In fact, we are slowly introducing them to nipple or bottle feeding a few times a day, and theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re getting better and better at coordinating sucking, swallowing and breathing.â&#x20AC;?

The mother is 33-year-old Nadya Suleman. She has had all of her children through the process of in vitro fertilization, and all of the embryos were fertilized by the same man whose name remains undisclosed. One of the complaints against Suleman is that she is irresponsible for having so many children and no way to care for them.

She is divorced, unmarried, currently unemployed and lives in her motherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s three-bedroom home with her other six children. With the birth of the octuplets, she has now has 14 children. photos by the ASSOCIATED PRESS

Suleman responded, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I know Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be able to afford them when Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m done with my schooling. If I was just sitting down watching TV and not being as determined as I am to succeed and provide a better future for my children, I believe that would be considered, to a certain degree, VHOĂ&#x20AC;VK Âľ â&#x20AC;&#x201C; RACHEL ADAMS AND THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

community Student adventures on the Garden Isle

K

auai, â&#x20AC;&#x153;the Garden Island,â&#x20AC;? is draped in natural attractions such as scenic hikes and waterfalls. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the perfect place to snap postcardlike pictures of clear blue water, ideal sunsets, green, luscious land, and eye-catching beaches.

2QH RI WKH VLWHV WR VHH LV :DLOXD Falls located in the city of Lihue in the Wailua River State Park. The waterfall is about 80 ft. high, says kau-

ai-hawaii.com, with falls that drop in either of three separate segments or one single fall, depending on the ZDWHU Ă RZ â&#x20AC;&#x153;I like Wailua Falls best. The amount of water pouring off the cliff was unreal,â&#x20AC;? said Jacob Hansen, sophomore in business from Reno, Nevada.

Wailua Falls is easily accessible because no hiking is required to view the whole waterfall. A viewFAR LEFT: Along the green and gorgeous stretch of the Na Pali Coast is an 11 mile trail that ends at the remote Kalalau Beach, unreachable by all but boat, helicopter and foot.

point, located on the side of Maalo Road, is designated for sightseeing and picture taking.

There is a trail that leads down to the bottom of the waterfall, though there is a sign at the top that reads, ´'DQJHU .HHS 2XW ¾ 7KH WUDLO LV steep and slippery with ropes set up DW VRPH RI WKH WRXJKHU VSRWV 2QFH DW the bottom of the falls, it is possible to hike under the waterfall, although the only way to get there is to walk on slippery rocks underneath the falling water.

Another one of Kauaiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s natural landscapes is Hanakapiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ai Falls. It falls 300 ft., says Hawaii-guide.com, down the wall of the Hanakapiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ai Valley. The trail to Hanakapiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ai Falls is located on the Na Pali Coast in west Kauai, at the end of Highway 560 at Keâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;e Beach, and two miles into the Kalalau Trail. It can be muddy, so tennis shoes are recommended for hiking. To reach this waterfall, hike Kalalau Trail to Hanakapiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ai Beach. There is an unmaintained trail that distance another two miles inland that leads to WKH ERWWRP RI +DQDNDSL¡DL )DOOV 2Q this trail, there are guava trees where fresh guava can be picked and eaten.

2QFH DW WKH ERWWRP RI WKH ZDWHUfall, there is a natural pool you can swim in, and rocks to sit and relax on. It is also possible to swim out to a ledge and stand under the waterfall. Because this hike is a round-trip

of eight miles, plan on a good portion of the day being taken up by this adventure. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Hanakapiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ai Falls was my favorite hike on Kauai for the scenery. It was like hiking the coast of Jurassic Park without the dinosaurs.

The falls at the end took some time but [it was] well worth the walk,â&#x20AC;? said David McCombs, senior in international cultural studies from Knoxville, Tenn.

Another attraction is Waipoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;o Falls located in the middle of Waimea Canyon on Highway 550. It is two tiered and drops 800 ft., says Hawaii-guide.com. While driving in the canyon, at mile marker 10, there is a lookout point where the falls are fully visible although they are far.

There is another lookout point just before mile marker 13 and, even though they are closer, the falls still look a long way away.

Also on the island between mile markers 14 and 15, there is a trailhead that ends at the top of the falls.

While on the hike, you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t see the falls, so the best camera-shot of the whole trip is on the Highway.

At the top, there is a pool of water far enough back from Waipoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;o Falls that you can swim in without risk of going over the falls. There is also a miniature waterfall that falls into this pool, which is fun to climb up. â&#x20AC;&#x201C;NICOLE HAMILTON

He cited Moroni 10:5: â&#x20AC;&#x153;And by the power of the Holy Ghost ye may know the truth of all things.â&#x20AC;?

Additionally, he discussed spiritual gifts, saying, one gift that all can ask for is the gift of charity. He said charity is a â&#x20AC;&#x153;perfect, pure motive for all you do in life.â&#x20AC;?

At the end of his talk, Christofferson pronounced an apostolic blessing upon all in attendance, and said he wished he could lay his hands upon everyoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s head and give them a blessing individually. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I like how he gave us a blessing,â&#x20AC;? said Marc Christensen, freshman in biology from Sonora, Calif. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not often that you get a blessing from a special witness of Christ.â&#x20AC;?

community Student adventures on the Garden Isle

K

auai, â&#x20AC;&#x153;the Garden Island,â&#x20AC;? is draped in natural attractions such as scenic hikes and waterfalls. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the perfect place to snap postcardlike pictures of clear blue water, ideal sunsets, green, luscious land, and eye-catching beaches.

2QH RI WKH VLWHV WR VHH LV :DLOXD Falls located in the city of Lihue in the Wailua River State Park. The waterfall is about 80 ft. high, says kau-

ai-hawaii.com, with falls that drop in either of three separate segments or one single fall, depending on the ZDWHU Ă RZ â&#x20AC;&#x153;I like Wailua Falls best. The amount of water pouring off the cliff was unreal,â&#x20AC;? said Jacob Hansen, sophomore in business from Reno, Nevada.

Wailua Falls is easily accessible because no hiking is required to view the whole waterfall. A viewFAR LEFT: Along the green and gorgeous stretch of the Na Pali Coast is an 11 mile trail that ends at the remote Kalalau Beach, unreachable by all but boat, helicopter and foot.

point, located on the side of Maalo Road, is designated for sightseeing and picture taking.

There is a trail that leads down to the bottom of the waterfall, though there is a sign at the top that reads, ´'DQJHU .HHS 2XW ¾ 7KH WUDLO LV steep and slippery with ropes set up DW VRPH RI WKH WRXJKHU VSRWV 2QFH DW the bottom of the falls, it is possible to hike under the waterfall, although the only way to get there is to walk on slippery rocks underneath the falling water.

Another one of Kauaiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s natural landscapes is Hanakapiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ai Falls. It falls 300 ft., says Hawaii-guide.com, down the wall of the Hanakapiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ai Valley. The trail to Hanakapiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ai Falls is located on the Na Pali Coast in west Kauai, at the end of Highway 560 at Keâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;e Beach, and two miles into the Kalalau Trail. It can be muddy, so tennis shoes are recommended for hiking. To reach this waterfall, hike Kalalau Trail to Hanakapiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ai Beach. There is an unmaintained trail that distance another two miles inland that leads to WKH ERWWRP RI +DQDNDSL¡DL )DOOV 2Q this trail, there are guava trees where fresh guava can be picked and eaten.

2QFH DW WKH ERWWRP RI WKH ZDWHUfall, there is a natural pool you can swim in, and rocks to sit and relax on. It is also possible to swim out to a ledge and stand under the waterfall. Because this hike is a round-trip

of eight miles, plan on a good portion of the day being taken up by this adventure. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Hanakapiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ai Falls was my favorite hike on Kauai for the scenery. It was like hiking the coast of Jurassic Park without the dinosaurs.

The falls at the end took some time but [it was] well worth the walk,â&#x20AC;? said David McCombs, senior in international cultural studies from Knoxville, Tenn.

Another attraction is Waipoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;o Falls located in the middle of Waimea Canyon on Highway 550. It is two tiered and drops 800 ft., says Hawaii-guide.com. While driving in the canyon, at mile marker 10, there is a lookout point where the falls are fully visible although they are far.

There is another lookout point just before mile marker 13 and, even though they are closer, the falls still look a long way away.

Also on the island between mile markers 14 and 15, there is a trailhead that ends at the top of the falls.

While on the hike, you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t see the falls, so the best camera-shot of the whole trip is on the Highway.

At the top, there is a pool of water far enough back from Waipoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;o Falls that you can swim in without risk of going over the falls. There is also a miniature waterfall that falls into this pool, which is fun to climb up. â&#x20AC;&#x201C;NICOLE HAMILTON

Johanson joins BYUH as director of communications

T

he University Relations and Communications Department has a new director this semester, Michael Johanson, who said he is looking forward to sharing BYU-Hawaiiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s story with the world. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I am very forward looking by nature.

Students on campus also shared their opinions on the new communications director. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I feel he will help improve the Communications Department because I think he will help extend to the school community more,â&#x20AC;? said Jake Gamboa, freshman in pre- biology from Denver, Colo. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think the new director will help improve the advertising and communicate to the campus about activities and things that go on in the populous and our humble abode,â&#x20AC;? said Tanner Fulmer, freshman in political science from Palmer, Alaska.

But being the new guy on campus doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t worry Johanson. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It feels great!â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I love people, and Ă&#x20AC;QGLQJ RXW ZKDW PDNHV WKHP KDSS\ &RPH WR Ă&#x20AC;QG RXW WKHUH¡V D ORW WR EH happy about here in Hawaii,â&#x20AC;? he said.

He cited Moroni 10:5: â&#x20AC;&#x153;And by the power of the Holy Ghost ye may know the truth of all things.â&#x20AC;?

Additionally, he discussed spiritual gifts, saying, one gift that all can ask for is the gift of charity. He said charity is a â&#x20AC;&#x153;perfect, pure motive for all you do in life.â&#x20AC;?

At the end of his talk, Christofferson pronounced an apostolic blessing upon all in attendance, and said he wished he could lay his hands upon everyoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s head and give them a blessing individually. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I like how he gave us a blessing,â&#x20AC;? said Marc Christensen, freshman in biology from Sonora, Calif. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not often that you get a blessing from a special witness of Christ.â&#x20AC;?

Handling domestic violence at BYUH

A

s the world watches singers Chris Brown and Rhianna deal with violence in their relationship, BYU-Hawaii is working to FUHDWH D Ă&#x20AC;UP SROLF\ RQ 'RPHVWLF Violence here on campus.

It is admittedly a problem, according to members of the schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s administration. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Domestic violence happens on campus,â&#x20AC;? said Associate Vice President for Instruction Chad Compton. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Over the years I have been at BYU-Hawaii, I have been aware of cases that involve domestic violence. We are all imperfect individuals and we bring those imperfections with us to campus. I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a rare thing, but domestic violence does happen here.â&#x20AC;?

Leilani Auna, who works in the Counseling Center on campus, explained how domestic violence is not only physical violence but also the threat of violence to control another person. This can range from limiting access to funds to fullblown beatings. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A person should never have to live in fear in their own home. A home is supposed to be a safe place,â&#x20AC;? said Auna. She goes on to advise, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Once youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been hit in your relationship, it will get worse. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think it wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t happen again.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;A lot of times, people donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t leave [the relationship] because they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know where to go,â&#x20AC;? added Auna, who said BYUH has not established

If anyone feels endangered, they can contact intervention specialist Sherri Edgar-Hansen at (808) 266-0625. â&#x20AC;&#x153;a place to goâ&#x20AC;? for anyone that might feel abused in their relationship. But the community provides such a place, the Salvation Army Family Treatment Center, a shelter for women who feel threatened or afraid in their homes.

Sherri Edgar-Hansen, senior in social work from Eugene, Oregon, works as a volunteer oncall intervention specialist. She goes to the homes of women who need help and takes them somewhere safe. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have worked with women (students) who have been involved with domestic violence,â&#x20AC;? said Edgar-Hansen. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The main problem is that it goes straight to the bishop and then it goes to the Counseling Center and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s where it stops. Leaders L to R: April Courtright, Alfredo Orellana and Heidi Lelle stress over their midterms while studying in the library

W

ith midterm season in full sway, stress levels have the potential to steadily increase. Students are only asked to do their best on exams, but preparation for these tests can sometimes lead to unhealthy stress levels.

Fortunately, many students on campus have found their own ways of handling stress so that they stay calm and healthy during the testing season. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When I feel that I have a lot of stress, it helps me to just sit down, take a break and watch a

Obama aims to bring hope to a suffering nation

P ABOVE: President Barack Obama speaks during a visit to Camp Lejeune, N.C., Friday, Feb. 27, 2009. Obama moved to JYP½PP XLI HI½RMRK TVSQMWI SJ LMW GEQTEMKR ERRSYRGMRK XLEX all U.S. combat troops will be withdrawn by September 2010.

resident Barack Obama addressed the subjects of energy, education, and health care with the nation during an address at Camp Lejeune, N.C. on Feb. 24. He talked in depth about all these subjects, but the heart of his speech came near the beginning: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Tonight I want every American to know this: We will rebuild, we will recover, and the United States of America will emerge stronger than beforeâ&#x20AC;Ś What is required now is for this country to pull together, confront boldly the challenges we face, and take responsibility for our future once more.â&#x20AC;?

He mentioned the recent passing of the stimulus plan, which he said was important in jump-starting the economy, but it would not be enough. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Now is the timeâ&#x20AC;Śto not only revive this economy, but to build a new foundation for lasting prosperity,â&#x20AC;?

Obama said, and continued, â&#x20AC;&#x153;the budget I submit will invest in the three areas that are absolutely critical to our economic future: energy, health care, and education.â&#x20AC;?

The President addressed the need for America to lead the industry in green technologies, and that SDUW RI WKH HFRQRPLF VWLPXOXV ZDV VHW DVLGH VSHFLĂ&#x20AC;cally for this purpose. He said the automotive sector would need to become more environmentally friendly in order to have government aid and to be competitive in the world.

The President could not say what the details of

the health care reform would be, but he did say that it would be done with the goal of â&#x20AC;&#x153;quality, affordable health care for every American.â&#x20AC;?

The third challenge he addressed was the need for education, saying, â&#x20AC;&#x153;In a global economy where the most valuable skill you can sell is your knowledge, a good education is no longer just a pathway to opportunity â&#x20AC;&#x201C; it is a pre-requisite.â&#x20AC;? The main education reform goal: for America to have the highest proportion of college graduates in the world by 2020.

President Obama placed pressure on Congress to make laws that would improve the quality of education, make it more affordable, and discussed the importance of families beginning the education process in the home, stating, â&#x20AC;&#x153;In the end, there is no program or policy that can substitute for a mother or father who will attend those parent/teacher conferences, or help with homework after dinner, or turn off the TV, put away the video games, and read to their child. I speak to you not just as a president, but as a father when I say that responsibility for our childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s education must begin at home.â&#x20AC;?

Finally, Obama stressed that making deep and lasting changes to the way the economy is run and organized must be done in a spirit of unity and perseverance. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; CHRIS DEAN AND THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Elder Stephen Biddulph, from the Student Development Center, also  gave some helpful tips in  trying to avoid or  handle stress. â&#x20AC;&#x153;First, to avoid stress, it would be best if you, as a student, managed your time wisely to Ă&#x20AC;W LQ WKH ULJKW DPRXQW RI UHOD[LQJ DQG VWXG\LQJ The second thing to do to avoid stress is to attend class regularly and stay up to date with your school work. The last thing that would help avoid stress is to ask for help early from an instructor or professor,â&#x20AC;? said Biddulph. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If faced with stress, students should try their best to relax. Students should also eat a healthy diet, get the right amount of sleep, believe in themselves, live the gospel so that the Holy Ghost can bring them peace and, if needed, go see a counselor for assistance in handling their stress,â&#x20AC;? added Biddulph. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; AUSTIN COOK photo by AARON KNUDSEN

Mother of 6 becomes mother of 14

O

nly two sets of octuplets have ever been delivered in the United States, the latest of which was recently delivered Jan. 26, 2009.

In spite of being delivered nine weeks early, each child was born alive and well, thanks to a team of 52 medical professionals that helped in the delivery process. They are continuing to receive neonatal care at .DLVHU 3HUPDQHQWH¡V %HOOĂ RZHU 0HGLFDO &HQWHU ORFDWHG LQ %HOOĂ RZHU &DOLI ZKHUH WKH EDELHV ZHUH ERUQ 0DQGKLU *XSWD 0' QHRQDWRORJLVW DW WKH %HOOĂ RZHU Medical Center said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;At one month old, the babies are doing well. They are alert and responsive to the care our nurses are providing them. In fact, we are slowly introducing them to nipple or bottle feeding a few times a day, and theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re getting better and better at coordinating sucking, swallowing and breathing.â&#x20AC;?

The mother is 33-year-old Nadya Suleman. She has had all of her children through the process of in vitro fertilization, and all of the embryos were fertilized by the same man whose name remains undisclosed. One of the complaints against Suleman is that she is irresponsible for having so many children and no way to care for them.

She is divorced, unmarried, currently unemployed and lives in her motherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s three-bedroom home with her other six children. With the birth of the octuplets, she has now has 14 children. photos by the ASSOCIATED PRESS

Suleman responded, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I know Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be able to afford them when Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m done with my schooling. If I was just sitting down watching TV and not being as determined as I am to succeed and provide a better future for my children, I believe that would be considered, to a certain degree, VHOĂ&#x20AC;VK Âľ â&#x20AC;&#x201C; RACHEL ADAMS AND THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
