he U.S. Department of Energy awarded $1.7 million last month to a team from the University of Miami’s Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science to study and research new methods for storing carbon underground.

Carbon sequestration, as the method is called, involves piping and storing underground carbon dioxide, one of three major greenhouse gases, and proves to be one of the nation’s primary tools in battling the effects of global warming.

Principal Investigator Tim Dixon leads the UM research team along with fellow RSMAS faculty members Peter Swart, Falk Amelung, Guoqin Lin and Dan Riemer.

RSMAS was one of 19 organizations awarded funds by the DOE on Aug. 24.

Research teams from other universities that received money include Stanford, Columbia and Princeton.

Students lose sleep over hunger Event raises funds for food to Haiti

BY AUSTEN GREGERSON CONTRIBUTING NEWS WRITER

The University of Miami will participate in “All-Nighter for the Poor” as a fundraiser for food donations which will be given to Haiti.

Sponsored by the volunteer group Food for the Poor, colleges, high schools and organizations across the country will participate in a web-drive and stay awake in order to raise funds for developing countries like Haiti and awareness of problems of hunger and starvation.

The money they raise will go towards programs that teach communities to feed themselves through projects like animal husbandry and farming.

Senior Alexander Rafuls is the captain for UM’s team, Canes for the Poor. After hearing a lecture on some of the problems facing Haiti he took it upon himself to bring a fundraiser to UM that would help Haitians.

“Haiti really, really needs the support right now and for less than two dollars a day we could be saving lives,” he said.

With the event organized entirely on the internet, the funds raised can be given out much more efficiently.

“What really separates us from other events is that we donate our raised money directly

to distribution centers in Haiti and not to the government,” Rafuls said. “It’s good to know that the food will be given out equally, without much extra interference.”

Sophomore Daniel Schoch found out about the All-Nighter through Facebook.

“I was invited to participate in [it] by a friend,” Schoch said.

“The concept of it was really interesting and I figured it would be worth sacrificing one of my Friday nights.”

Students staying up will receive monetary pledges from family and friends speculating on how many hours they can stay awake.

The event will last from 8 p.m. to 2 a.m.

“I’m usually never asleep before 2 a.m. anyways, so that wasn’t a drawback at all,” Schoch said.

To help keep their eyes open, activities planned for the night include multiple speakers, games and possibly Skype calls with other colleges and organizations also participating.

Currently, Canes for the Poor have raised $110 of their $5,000 goal, with donations continuously coming in.

Coral Gables police released an incident report this week regarding the accident, but withheld details pending an unspecified investigation. The report did pinpoint the location of the accident as the intersection of Aurora Street and Altara Street, approximately a block from Milov’s apartment.

Milov’s family members are appreciative of the outpouring of support from the UM community and have asked that all inquiries be sent to Whitely, who confirmed

that Milov is still in the trauma center and has undergone many surgical procedures.

Whitely continues to continually stay in touch with Milov’s family, friends and sorority, Delta Phi Epsilon. According to Whitely, students experiencing grief may go to the on-campus counseling center at any time.

“Bianca continues to progress in a positive direction,” Whitely said. “It is clear that she is going to have a long recovery process.”

Off-campus antics have consequences Code of conduct reaches beyond the bounds of UM

BY MEGAN TERILLI ASSISTANT NEWS EDITOR

Earlier this semester, a letter from Dean of Students Ricardo Hall and Vice President for Student Affairs Patricia A. Whitely was sent warning University of Miami students of disciplinary measures for negative behavior at off-campus residences.

Loud parties that disturb neighbors, run-ins with the local police, fights with a landlord and other forms of disorderly conduct can land UM students in trouble not only with the local authorities but also with the university administration.

Senior Cameron Holmes, who lives off-campus found himself called into Dean Ricardo Hall’s office after a friend’s neighbor complained.

According to Holmes, the neighbor had been upset over loud nights and finding beer cans scattered across the neighborhood the next morning.

“I was at a friend’s house watching a movie and saw the neighbor slow down and write down license plate numbers,” Holmes said.

Holmes’ car was parked in the driveway at this time. Consequently, he was associated with his friend’s behavior.

“Dean Hall called me in for a meeting; I didn’t get in trouble,” he said. “I was just given a heads-up about the rule.”

If a UM student happens to break a law while off-campus, the administration of the university is prepared to take action.

“The university’s Code of Conduct follows a student no matter where he lives and no matter where he goes,” Tony Lake, the associate dean and director of judicial affairs and dean of students for the university, said. “This isn’t a new approach for us; it’s been this way for quite a while.”

The rule appears in section A.6 of the handbook entitled “Off-Campus Residency.”

“The university does not approve, inspect, or supervise off-campus student residences,” the handbook states. “The University does expect, however, that students living off-campus will conduct themselves in a manner that will reflect credit on themselves and the university which includes observing all local, state, and federal laws as well as rules and regulations contained in this handbook.”

Many students at UM fail to take a hard look at the Student Rights and Responsibilities Handbook and therefore can miss important rules that affect them, even off-campus.

“I actually never read the student handbook, I don’t know anyone who has.

I live at Red Road [Commons] and it’s basically an underage dorm without RAs,” junior and off-campus resident Ramona Cavanagh said.

Neighbors, landlords and mere passersby can contact the university’s administration and file a complaint on any student, whether they live in an apartment or a local home.

Students have mixed opinions about

THE MORNING AFTER: Cups and beer bottles lay on grass after a party. UM’s decision to punish students for off-campus behavior is unpopular with students. whether the university should be governing student lives off-campus.

“Miami is a private institution, not to mention a good amount of pocket change, and for that reason I think students are entitled to be surround by a positive and safe environment,” Cavanagh said. “But at the same time I don’t really think it’s [the university’s] business what I do outside of school.”

Holmes thinks the rule makes sense “in certain situations,” but said the neigh-

bor in his case “was trying to take advantage of the rule.”

“In my opinion, I don’t see how they could deal with it any differently,” Holmes said. “[The administration is] really doing this for the students, to protect the students.”

Author speaks on alcohol abuse ‘Oksoberfest’ educates on effects of drinking

BY MEREDITH REILLY CONTRIBUTING NEWS WRITER

Koren Zailckas insists that she has never been an alcoholic. She does admit, however, that she suffered through a decade of alcohol abuse.

Zailckas, author of the New York Times bestseller Smashed: Story of a Drunken Girlhood, spoke of her struggle with alcohol to a crowd of over 100 undergraduate students and faculty at the University of Miami’s Learning Center on Tuesday night.

The event was part of “Oksoberfest,” the name given to this year’s National Collegiate Alcohol Awareness Week.

“In my family, when I was younger, we didn’t talk about our emotions,” Zailckas said. “I think as a result I came to rely on alcohol for that emotional support at a very young age.”

Zailckas had her first sip of alcohol when she was 14 years old. She had her last sip at age 23 and has since been sober for six years.

Her struggle with alcohol originated during high school but it intensified at Syracuse University, where she attended college.

“At Syracuse, alcohol was way more accessible than it had been when I was in high school,” Zailckas said. “My college drinking began with a lot of enthusiasm and a lot of alcohol.”

Zailckas was a sister of the Kappa Alpha Theta sorority while she was an undergraduate student. However, she changed the name of the sorority to “Zeta” in her book to protect Kappa Alpha Theta’s reputation at Syracuse.

Zailckas insists that her sorority was not at the root of her problems with alcohol abuse.

“I certainly don’t hold my sorority accountable for my drinking,” Zailckas said. “I wanted to make my college experience about drinking, so I made my sorority experience about drinking as well.”

NEWS

THE MIAMI HURRICANE

At Syracuse, Zailckas majored in journalism and minored in English. She wrote her book as a memoir of her experiences at age 23 while living in New York City, immediately after she decided to become sober.

It landed on the New York Times bestseller list shortly after it was published in 2005. Since then, Zailckas has promoted her book on 20/20, Good Morning America, CBS Evening News with Katie Couric, Anderson Cooper 360, The View and The Tyra Banks Show.

Zailckas does not believe that she would have listened if someone had told her she had a drinking problem while she was a student at Syracuse.

She does believe that she might have listened if that warning had come sooner.

“In high school they were always so focused on drinking and driving that they left out the basic things,” Zailckas said. “I didn’t know that alcohol affects girls differently than it does boys. I didn’t know that my body handles alcohol differently if I’m taking birth control or if it’s that time of the month. I didn’t even know what alcohol poisoning was.”

It is exactly for these reasons that a National Collegiate Alcohol Awareness Week exists on UM’s campus and on college campuses across the country.

The goal of this week’s Oksoberfest events is to educate students about the effects of alcohol on their bodies and the potential dangers of drinking.

“The thing that stood out for me in Zailckas’ speech was that her story is very similar to those of a lot of people I know, especially here at UM,” sophmore Patrick Nealon, Inter-Fraternity Council co-chair for GAMMA, or “Greeks Advocating Mature Mangement of Alochol,” said. “It could have been a number of familiar faces up there telling me the same story.”

Expected to create nearly 100 jobs over its four year span, the project carries a total cost of $35.8 million and will be managed by the National Energy Technology Laboratory.

“If the United States is going to continue to use fossil fuels, as most experts say that we will, it is absolutely mandatory that we sequester or store the carbon dioxide that is emitted when fossil fuels are burned,” said Joe Culver, spokesperson for the Department of Energy’s National Energy Technology Laboratory.

Carbon sequestration stabilizes and potentially reduces levels of the greenhouse gas in the atmosphere, alleviating the effects of global warming.

“Global warming is a real

problem and it’s going to be a while before we can get the economy off carbon-based energy sources,” Dixon said. “In the short term we’re stuck trying out technologies like carbon sequestration.”

The technique isolates carbon dioxide from the emission streams of coal burning power plants.

“The University of Miami has expertise in all of the key areas that we need to investigate,” Dixon said. “We’re pretty excited that this project brings together a bunch of key people and reflects the expertise UM has. “ Leanne Comey may be contacted at lcomey@themiamihurricane.com.

Sexologist a standard around UM Students receive their dose of sex education

BY RAMON GALIANA OF THE STAFF

COURTESY MARILYN VOLKER

SEX WITH MARILYN: Everyone’s favorite sexologist, Marilyn Volker, answers questions about relationships and sex.

Both in and outside of the classroom, college students are full of questions. One renowned sexologist has some of the answers.

Dr. Marilyn Volker has been talking to UM student organizations for over 20 years on issues regarding sexuality and relationships.

Most recently, she was a guest speaker for students at both Hecht and Stanford residential colleges. Students packed the room where she was presenting, even having to huddle outside in the hall to see Volker’s presentation.

“There’s almost a rivalry between the two [residential] colleges to see how many people can turn out for my presentation,” she said. “It’s a healthy rivalry to get good information, though.”

Junior Romy Portuondo, a resident assistant on a Hecht programing team, helped plan Volker’s most recent visit to the Coral Gables campus this semester.

“Students love the sexologist! She is extremely entertaining and open,” Portuondo wrote in an e-mail to The Miami Hurricane.

“She isn’t afraid to tackle any topic and she answers all kinds of questions - from the most serious to the most amusing.”

According to Portuondo, Volker’s presentations at Hecht have been part of an 6

NEWS

ongoing 15-year tradition to promote information about safe sex and effective lovemaking practices among students.

Volker has been a sexuality educator for over 37 years.

She currently teaches sexuality therapists at Florida International University, Barry University, St. Thomas and the University of Miami as part of the Florida PostGraduate Sex Therapy Training Institute, which grants certification to psychotherapists wishing to work as sex therapists.

She was formerly featured on Doctor Radio, a channel on Sirius Satellite Radio, in a call-in show titled “Sex With Marilyn” where outside callers could call in and ask her questions related to sexuality and relationships.

Students at UM know her as the goto woman for answers to serious questions about relationships and sex.

“There are several things I would say [students] are mainly interested in. Of course, a huge part of the interest is in specific sexual activities and what they consider ‘the best’ in pleasing people,” Volker said. “They’re always interested in [condom use] and in what’s safer or riskier. They also have very interesting questions about anatomy that they have never had answered.”

She states that she has noticed that many high schools do not present important gender and transgender issues in their sexuality programming, leaving students with many unanswered questions when they come to college.

One of her signature notions is that of the “Four T’s” that are vital for any relationship – talk, touch, time and trust.

“We talk about what’s called ‘body mapping’,” said Volker. “For women to really respond they have to know the Four T’s – and that’s interesting because every woman is completely different.”

During fall 2008, former Hecht resident Zach Rutta was a freshman and saw another presentation by Volker.

“Even a year later a lot of the things she told us really work for me,” he said. “I know what a relationship is about more so than before I started here at UM.” According to Rutta, Volker’s presentations are always a popular scene for freshmen living in the residential colleges.

Portuondo hopes to have Volker back next year for another seminar on sexology.

“We love having Marilyn speak to our students. Residents respond very well to her presentations and give us some of the highest turnouts we get all year,” Portuondo said. “We will certainly be bringing her back next year and we love when she hosts other programs on campus.”

October 15 - October 21, 2009

MARILYN’S TOP FIVE TIPS FOR RELATIONSHIPS 1. Don’t believe in fantasy films. They are far from reality and will mislead your expectations.

2. Do follow the four “T’s”: talk, touch, time and trust.

3. Do learn about sexual pharmacology.

4. Remember the three levels of safe: abstinence is the “safest,” outercourse is the “second safe” and third safe is protected intercourse with barriers (oral, anal, vaginal).

5. Take a look a some really good resources online at goaskalice.com, sexetc.com. If you have a problem you should contact a sexologist that can help you at aasect.org.

We’re talking about the wonderful wizard who is going to single-handedly rescue the global economy...

- Josh Kornfield Contributing Columnist

Group projects: the fifth circle of hell It’s the little things that tell you the most about people. Do they push ahead of everyone to exit the elevator first? Guilt-trip and manipulate situations so they come out ahead? Never hold up their share of group work?

Just from observing the daily activities and mannerisms of many students at the University of Miami, it has become clear that our undergrads believe themselves to be the center of the universe.

These individuals become most frustrating when assigned to be your partner for class projects. Beware of the warning signs early on.

Common behaviors include: pretending to do work while actually browsing Facebook, always having mysterious obligations so they can never meet to work on projects and the elusive ghost of the group, who just never even shows up. What can be done to put these frustrating individuals in their place?

When the pushy girl in your architecture class tries to stick you with an entire group project, grab your pitchfork and revolt. If she is brash enough to attempt such boorish behavior, give it right back to her. The girl is already not cooperating with you, so what’s the worst that could happen?

However, if your confrontation does not have the desired effect, call upon lessons learned in your high school English class for reassurance.

Surely you remember Dante’s Inferno, and the beauty of “contrapasso,” in which hellish reiterative punishment perfectly befits the original crime?

In the same way, students who do not learn to do their own work now will not be able to do so later in life. While you surge ahead in a successful internship, they will be left behind in the dust, still struggling with the easiest of tasks. The selfabsorbed bubble of your peers will finally pop; it just might take some time.

Remember to lead the rebel yell and have the strength to call out their actions. However, if you still aren’t able to get through to the egotistical students of UM, have faith. In Dante’s version of hell such people would be banished to the fifth circle, punishing those guilty of sloth; you can be sure they will ultimately get what’s coming to them.

Editorials represent the majority view of The Miami Hurricane editorial staff.

Others more worthy of Nobel Prize can’t understand why we allow a band of incompetent Vikings to form a committee that confers one of the highest honors in the world.

Honestly, the Nobel Peace Prize? That’s it?

We’re talking about the JOSH wonderful wizard who is goKORNFIELD ing to single-handedly rescue CONTRIBUTING the global economy and write COLUMNIST a thrilling autobiography after the conclusion of his eightyear mission.

Can you imagine Obama’s future autobiography? The masterpiece that will inspire every man, woman and child to be the change they want to see in the world. Not only will it inspire, it’ll be exquisitely written!

Unfortunately, we must all endure the fact that the savior of humanity only won the Peace Prize.

No person deserved it more. Certainly not Hu Jia, a Chinese human rights activist who has been jailed by the Chinese government for her “subversive” activities, or Morgan Tsvangirai who, despite

repeated attempts on his life, managed to get the ruthless dictator of Zimbabwe, Robert Mugabe, to share power. People like Paul Farmer and Krisana Kraisintu shouldn’t be recognized for their incredibly successful efforts to reverse HIV epidemics in the Global South.

Obama will likely send 40,000 more troops to Afghanistan and was unable to close the Guantanamo Bay detainment facility. Nevertheless, his successes on the international stage demonstrate he is a true peace hero. He daringly proposed to the UN that we make it more difficult for terrorists to access nuclear materials. Unlike his predecessors, Obama has made clear his aim to limit nuclear proliferation.

It should probably be noted that almost any Democrat elected would appear black to Bush’s white, when it comes to not acting like a boorish bonehead. Still, could they pull it off with Obama’s style? Next year, I submit Miss America’s name in nomination, for taking such a courageous stand on the issue of world peace.

Give baseball another shot n Friday, when most of us will be in the Grove forgetting what day and year it is, the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim and the New York Yankees start their best-ofseven series for the AmeriAUSTIN can League Championship.

GREGERSON The Yankees possess the STAFF highest-paid, highest-profile COLUMNIST roster in American sports, and while the Angels are certainly no David to the Goliath in pinstripes, their underdog status is assured and deserved.

But since it’s baseball, nobody will be watching.

I’m never shocked when I hear how much someone dislikes baseball. How slow it moves, how the term “athlete” is used loosely for some of the players, even how ridiculously long the season is. Why would somebody watch three to four hours of stagnant action when there are so many faster, flashier sports available?

I have no argument against any of it. The “modern era” of baseball dates back to 1900, and most of its rules and regulations haven’t changed since the first Roosevelt was president. It normally takes 15 to 20 seconds between pitches and it takes 162 games over six months to figure out

who will play another month to see who the best team is.

But if you are a fan of sport, or are willing to give pine tar and chewing tobacco one last try, watch this series. What it may lack in bonecrushing hits, it will more than make up for in captivating story lines and drama.

The Yankees’ story is simple: they spent a lot of money, they have a lot of talent and they won a lot of games. This is their most realistic shot at winning the World Series since the infamous 2004 season, and with their old confidence back, the city will see anything less than a ring as a failure.

As for the Angels, their path was filled with heartbreak. Rookie pitcher Nick Adenhart and two others were hit and killed by a drunk-driver on April 9. He died hours after finishing his first start of the season, but ever since then the Angels have hung his jersey in their dugout as a symbol of a fallen teammate who will never be forgotten.

It doesn’t take a diehard fan to see what this series has to offer. So if you’re interested in trying it one last time, that time is now.

Risqué student-directed show comes to the Blackbox

BY LAURA CASO CONTRIBUTING EDGE WRITER

During a recent dress rehearsal of the student play Tatjana in Color, cast member Grace Douglas suddenly exclaimed, “Oh my gosh, oh my gosh. This is so scandalous.”

Douglas’ shock stemmed from seeing sophomore Samantha Sutliff on stage wearing close to nothing. Sutliff, who plays the lead role of Tatjana, had only a towel covering her lower backside. In fact, the show includes two scenes in which actresses are partially clothed, although the audience can only see their backs.

“It’s nerve-wracking, but I am okay with it,” Sutliff said.

“It is done in a classy way and it makes the play more interesting.”

Tatjana in Color, written in 1997 by Julia Jordan, was loosely based on the biography of Egon Schiele. The prominent Austrian painter was briefly imprisoned in 1912 for immoral interactions with a 12-year-old child named Tatjana Von Mossig.

The play opens its four-day run at 8 p.m. tonight in Hecht Residential College’s Black Box Theatre on the second floor. Admission is free.

“What sets this show apart from others is that it challenges the norms,” student director Sarah Zemach said. “This is not what you expect to see in a musical or other play; it is a lot deeper than that.”

This isn’t the first UM production to feature partially-clad actors and actresses. In the past, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof and Dog Sees God featured scenes similar to Tatjana, during which the audience didn’t see frontal views of cast members.

Zemach said that she was excited about the storyline and jumped on the opportunity to bring the script to the stage after given the go-ahead by the UM Department of Theatre Arts.

“This is not an easy play,” she said. “It is provocative, abstract and not usually the kind of play that is put on in the UM theatre department.”

Zemach encountered one big obstacle after the student playing the role of Schiele withdrew for personal reasons.

Samantha Bangs, who plays Schiele’s mistress, volunteered her fiancé, Max Schloner, to fill the role mid-way though rehearsals. Schloner is a creative writing and motion picture major, but has previous acting experience.

“Max read the script so well on the first time, so it eased my worries,” Zemach said. “It’s funny how the lovers play lovers.”

Rehearsals began four weeks ago and cast members worked six days a week. Jennifer Vellenga, Zemach’s acting and directing professor, introduced the play to the young director.

“I think the director was looking for something with a feminine slant and took to a topic maybe a little more taboo,” Vellenga said. “This is about a young woman coming of age and how she views herself in relationship to art.”

Douglas said that she thinks that the audience will respond with mixed reactions.

“If they leave half as shocked as I am right now, it will prove to be a great show,” she said.

Bassnectar goes bananas

U-Tunes adds music to UMTV lineup

BY CARLY EHRLICH CONTRIBUTING EDGE WRITER

The University of Miami School of Communication, the Frost School of Music and UMTV are combining their efforts in a new project called U-Tunes. The musical talent competition show, which will air on UMTV, helps music students get publicity and enables student broadcasters and musical engineers to garner a better understanding of the industry.

Junior Eric Hurley, the show’s executive producer and director, and the rest of the cast and crew worked hard to transform 2008’s Musical Expression, a “braindrained” musical competition show into U-Tunes by improving the material and combining schools.

“ COURTESY BASSNECTAR

BANGING OUT: Lorin Ashton, the man behind San Francisco-based electronic music project Bassnectar, will perform at downtown Miami’s White Room this Friday Night. He describes his tour as “absolutely total bonkers.”

BY BEN WEXLER CONTRIBUTING EDGE WRITER

With hair past his shoulders and Nirvana and Metallica as his influences, it would be easy to think that Lorin Ashton was in a hard rock band. That’s definitely the wrong assumption.

Ashton is the man behind Bassnectar, an unrestricted electronic music project based out of San Francisco. With heavy basslines combing a multitude of music genres such as techno, hip-hop and dubstep, Bassnectar knows how to get any crowd hyped.

Following the release of his latest album Cozza Frenzy and a summer filled with playing a slew of music festivals, Bassnectar is set to unleash his unique style of music at White Room on Oct.17 for his own Cozza Frenzy Tour.

After missing out on the Winter Music Conference this past year due to scheduling conflicts, Bassnectar is more than ready to bring his bangers back to Miami.

“I love playing Miami…I am completely bananas to get back…I have such a massive buildup of tunes I just 14

cannot wait to DROP!” Ashton wrote in an e-mail interview with The Miami Hurricane.

Judging from the way the Cozza Frenzy Tour has been received so far, fans probably can’t wait for him to return either. With a recent show in Knoxville, Tenn., that attracted over 1,000 fans, and another in Athens, Ga., that sold out, it’s no wonder that Bassnectar describes his tour as “ABSOLUTELY TOTAL BONKERS.” Not all songs at his shows or on Cozza Frenzy involve ear-shattering basslines, though.

“It’s definitely not a mix of TOTAL BANGERS,” he wrote. “There are soft directions, hard directions, serious directions, playful ones…I wanted to offer up an eclectic collection.”

Ashton also added that he wants people to get “pleasure, perspective and thoughtfulness” out of his music. While the last two may be a bit of a stretch, anyone interested in electronic music will surely be able to find pleasure, if not more, at his upcoming show at White Room.

Benjamin takes the title of ‘Best Hair’ Wide receiver’s dreads earn him the top spot

BY CHRISTINA DE NICOLA OF THE STAFF

With four consecutive nationally televised games to start the season, the Miami Hurricanes spent plenty of time in the spotlight showing off their young talent.

But just as important was the opportunity for them to showcase their trademark hairdos.

After asking 16 players and team barber Steven Rivera about the best head of hair on the team, it was sophomore wide receiver Travis Benjamin’s long dreads that look the prize.

“It feels good because you have players come up to you and be like, ‘Man, you’ve got to cut your hair so I can have the longest hair on the team,’” the Belle Glade, Fla., native said. “I just sit there and laugh. Everybody wants to have dreads now.”

Benjamin said that he hasn’t cut his hair since the eighth grade, but is considering cutting it next year if an opposing player tackles him by his dreads.That’s something that has yet to happen in a game, though.

“He’s the only person I’ve seen who doesn’t get pulled by his hair,” sophomore linebacker Sean Spence said. “It’s probably because he’s moving too fast. He also ties it too.”

The wide receiver’s signature dreads are pulled back in a “ponytail” by an orange ACE band. Teammates like sophomore cornerback Brandon Harris take advantage of Benjamin’s promise during practice.

“He says he’ll never cut his hair so we play with it on purpose and grab on it when hanging on,” Harris said.

So who does Benjamin believe poses the biggest competition to steal his crown?

“Olivier Vernon has a nice Mohawk.

Every game, every week, he’ll have a different kind of style of Mohawk so if I had to do that, I’d get a Mohawk,” he said.

On the other hand, Benjamin knows for certain that he would never sample junior running back Graig Cooper’s and freshman safety Vaughn Telemaque’s blonde streaks.

“I guess they think it’s a certain kind of style,” he said. “I won’t ever do blonde.”

BRITTNEY BOMNIN // Photo Editor

GIVE ME A HEAD WITH HAIR, LONG BEAUTIFUL HAIR: Freshman defensive end Olivier Vernon lost the “Best Hair” player poll to sophomore wide receiver Travis Benjamin by one vote. Vernon usually styles his Mohawk in different colors and designs.

While the high-profile position players seem to care more about their hair, others like senior offensive lineman Jason Fox get a kick out of their teammates’ concern.

“I’ll give it to Travis Benjamin because he looks like Jar Jar Binks. If I score that many touchdowns I’ll put a wig on or something,” said Fox, who caught a touchdown on a trick play during the Florida State game last year.

Harris, who has an interception and a league-high 10 pass breakups so far this season, doesn’t mind that it takes some of his teammates 20 minutes to get their hair ready for games.

“I know who’s crazy about his hair the most: Travis. He loves his hair,” he said. “I don’t care what kind of hairdo he has. As long as he keeps performing like he’s performing, it’s fine with me.”

POLL RESULTS: Sixteen football players and barber Steven Rivera were polled as to which Hurricane has the best hair.

Travis Benjamin: 5

Jacory Harris: 1

Olivier Vernon: 4

Club Tennis impresses at state tournament Team makes it to semi-finals

BY RAMON GALIANA ASSISTANT SPORTS EDITOR

Considered one of the largest on-campus sports clubs that offers both competitive and recreational squads, the Club Tennis team is an organization that continues to grow and develop.

Having recently returned from a tournament at the University of Florida from Sept. 26–27, the club has proven itself a force to be reckoned with.

Of the three squads sent to the Florida tournament, one men’s team made it to the semifinals in the main draw while both the second men’s team and the women’s team made it to the semifinals of the consolidation bracket.

“We practiced for the tournaments pretty much like we always do,” club president Simone

Berger said. “We came out, hit and worked hard on what we needed to work on.”

The club is split into two sections, competitive and recreational. The competitive section has two sessions on Mondays and Wednesdays from 6 to 9 p.m.; the recreational on Tuesdays from 6 to 8 p.m. and Fridays 5 to 7 p.m.

Students interested in playing for the club do not have to try out; the recreational section accepts all students who just want to enjoy a game of tennis.

“The recreational side of the club provides students with the opportunity to play and meet other people on campus,” said Rhonda Dubord, the advisor of the club.

Berger agrees and believes that the social aspect of the club is what makes it special.

“I feel like I am part of a family, and all of my family members have the same interest,” sher said. “You see people around campus and you

[think] ‘Hey, it’s really awesome to have that sense of community.’”

Last February the club hosted its fourth-annual Ibis Open at the Crandon Park Tennis Center at Key Biscayne.

Over 90 players from the different instate universities participated in the tournament.

“Everyone brought their A-game for an action-packed weekend of competitive play.

Players were promised a minimum of two matches while some were able to play as many as seven in two days,” Dubord said. “It is safe to say that everyone was extremely sore by the end of the weekend.”

For the past four years, the club has been sponsored by the United States Tennis Association and have been provided with balls, travel money and t-shirts.

STUCK ON HIM LIKE GLUE: Senior cornerback Sam Shields, a converted receiver, makes a tackle on a Florida A&M player during last Saturday night’s victory at Land Shark Stadium. Miami beat the Rattlers 48-16.

Miami faces instate opponent on the road

BY LELAN LEDOUX SENIOR SPORTS WRITER

The focus must continue for the Miami Hurricanes.

With one more opponent before returning back to Atlantic Coast Conference play, the No. 9 Hurricanes will look to avoid a letdown when they travel to Bright House Networks Stadium and square off against Central Florida at 7:30 p.m. Saturday.

It will mark the second-ever meeting between Miami and UCF and the Canes’ first game in Orlando since 1936.

Head coach Randy Shannon and the Canes (4-1, 2-1 ACC) know the Knights (3-2) will come out motivated in front of a sell-out crowd.

“This is their bowl game,” said Shannon, whose team handled Florida A&M 48-16 last week. “This is their opportunity to put themselves on the map.

Last year we had a tough game against them. For us, as a team, we have to get back to starting fast like we did last week and finishing the game strong.

“Coach O’Leary has done a great job getting that program where it needs

to be.”

UCF is coming off a bye week and is 0-19 against top-25 teams since becoming a Division I program in 1996.

Visiting Central Florida gave Miami a scare last year. Despite holding the Knights to 78 total yards, the Hurricanes squeaked by UCF 20-14. It took a fourth-down pass deflection from senior linebacker Darryl Sharpton to preserve a win for the Canes.

But sophomore quarterback Jacory Harris was not the starter and offensive coordinator Mark Whipple was a part of the Philadelphia Eagles.

“I know that Central Florida’s going to be a sold-out game in Orlando,” said Harris, who has four 200-yard passing games this season and 1,225 in five games. “We’re going to go up there to just have fun.”

This season, the Hurricanes’ defensive line has been hit hard due to injuries. Each week the list of injured players has fluctuated from freshman Olivier Vernon to senior Eric Moncur.

Defensive line coach Clint Hurtt believes if one player goes down, another player will fill the void.

“There’s not one guy that’s more important than the other,” Hurtt said.

“They all have to play. Everyone is talking about the injuries and being beat up, but D-line is a physical position. I told

them, ‘If you want to play this game 100 percent healthy and not have a nick or bang, retire.’ It’s a man’s position.”

Redshirt freshman linebacker Jordan Futch is out for the season with a torn ACL. Futch was the fourth linebacker and the first one off the bench.

Redshirt freshman Ramon Buchanan and sophomore Arthur Brown have to make up for his absence on defense and special teams.

As announced before the season, Miami will take the bus to UCF and USF later next month. This is part of an effort to save money. Shannon actually sees positives in taking a team bus.

“No difference, it’s the same thing,” Shannon remarked. “We’ll probably make it faster because after the game you don’t have to go through the security gates, you don’t have to wait on the plane. You just get on the bus and go.

It’ll probably save us an hour.”

Miami looks to go 5-1 for the first time since opening 8-1 in 2005, but Shannon believes the team will be tested by UCF. “They are a tough football team,” Shannon said. “We have to go out there and try to win all four quarters of this football game.”

Dear V: I don’t want to say hello to my roommate’s little friend...

Dear Petrified, , Dear V, I am a freshman guy who is fortunate enough to be getting along well with his random roommate. But there is one thing: every so often I wake up in the middle of the night to the sounds of my roommate masturbating.

When it happens, I don’t know what to do so I just lay there and pretend like I’m still asleep.

It seriously creeps me out, and I can’t take it anymore. What can I do to keep this from happening again without making things weird between my roommate and me?

Sincerely, Petrified

Welcome to college! I’m sure you were prepared to study for your classes, but did you know that this is when you also get to learn how do deal with some of life’s most delicate social situations?

My stance on masturbation is no secret. It’s a healthy habit. But really, it should be kept during one’s own time.

While I give your roommate props for his shameless self-discovery, I realize that of course, you feel uneasy!

Privacy is tough to come by while living in the dorms, but it is something that both you and your roommate are in dire need of.

I too find your situation to be a sticky one (no pun intended). On one

dear ...

hand, you have the right to feel comfortable in your own living environment, but then again, a simple confrontation would likely create tension between you and your roommate.

You’ll have to be a little tricky while dealing with this delicate conundrum. You can send hints to your roommate without actually telling him that you know why he has that extra little spring in his step.

Try making up a fictional friend.

Tell your roommate that this friend had woken up to his roommate masturbating in the middle of the night and add, “Wow, that would be so awkward!”

Doing something like this should suffice to make your roommate feel bashful enough to stop having his own intimate moments with you in

the room. But he still won’t be completely sure that you’re onto him.

Hopefully both you and your roommate can better acquaint yourselves with each other’s schedules, so that each of you can enjoy your private moments while actually being alone.

Best, V Have a question for V? Hit up DearV@ themiamihurricane.com.
