Marshall leads in West Virginia Business Plan Competition

Visual Arts Center opening on schedule

By TANYA ABBETT

THE PARTHENON Business students at Marshall University have submitted the most entries in this year’s West Virginia Statewide Collegiate Business Plan Competition.

The competition is sponsored by the BrickStreet Center for Innovation and Entrepreneurship at West Virginia University. The annual competition demonstrates the urge to start businesses in West Virginia while giving college students the opportunity to win $10,000 worth of goods and services intended to help transform their business ideas into reality.

The second round of the competition will take place at Marshall’s Huntington campus Nov. 22. Marshall students submitted 107 out of 235 entries received from 11 state universities and colleges competing.

Elizabeth Reusch, assistant professor of strategy and entrepreneurship in Marshall’s College of Business, said she is impressed with the enthusiasm of the students who submitted their ideas.

“Given the size of Marshall University, 107 is an impressive number,” Reusch said.

“I think everybody should be wowed by the fact that so many of our students are willing to take a chance on their ideas. Entering a fledgling idea into a competition like this takes a lot of guts. In West Virginia, approximately 97 percent of our economy is based around thriving small businesses. If we want to help ensure the future success of West Virginia, we need to encourage our students to think like entrepreneurs. I am superbly proud of our students.”

Reusch said two years ago, Marshall had five plans in the competition. Last year, 70 students took the plunge, with two plans making it to the semi-final round.

“We know most successful entrepreneurs fail spectacularly with their first few ideas,” Reusch said. “I’d like to see our students get that out of the way, learn that sometimes great ideas aren’t profitable and that business plans are beneficial to helping determine what ideas will and wont work.”

The business plan competition has three rounds.

Round one requires a threepage summary of a business idea, which is scored by a panel of judges who use a scoring rubric. In each category, up to 10 teams will be selected to advance to round two. This semi-final round has three levels: a feasibility study, a two-minute elevator pitch and a series of interviews. The top five teams in each category will advance form the semi-finals to the final round, which will take place at WVU.

THE PARTHENON Marshall University is on track for a May 2014 completion of a state-of-the-art visual arts center in downtown Huntington.

The former Stone and Thomas building sits on Third Avenue across from Huntington’s Pullman Square. When renovations are complete, the center will house art studios, classrooms, and retail and gallery space on the ground floor designed to draw tourists and local shoppers to the center.

Ron May, director of facilities planning and management for Marshall, said the building will likely be in use by next fall.

“We’re on schedule to finish probably about mid-May of next year, so we probably wouldn’t move from Smith until the fall semester which works out well,” May said.

The new visual arts center sits in a prime spot in downtown Huntington and is designed to increase foot traffic to downtown Huntington. Marshall President Stephen J. Kopp said the building was purchased by a partnership between the city and the university to bridge the gap between Marshall and the community.

“It’s a great opportunity for the university, in collaboration with the city, to establish a real showpiece downtown where the visual arts could be showcased both for the benefits of our students and faculty and our community,” Kopp said.

The building is expected to hold 400 to 500 students, plus faculty--a benefit for Marshall’s visual arts program.

Currently, the program is limited because of space issues on campus. All of the School of Art and Design programs will be transferred downtown, except for ceramics and sculpture.

Donald Van Horn, College of Fine Arts dean, said the new facility is an exciting chance for the School of Art and Design to grow.

“This affords the School of Art and Design the opportunity to bring in more students, but more importantly, it gives them the chance to create new programs and have the space to do that,” Van Horn said.

“The facility gives them room to grow and expand.”

While the exterior only required minor aesthetic renovations, the interior is being completely redone to bring the 111-year-old department

store building up to current fire and safety regulations.

Another major area of construction was erecting a dividing wall between parts of the building, because the university only purchased part of the building. The rest belongs to a different owner.

The historical building is a seven-story structure, including the basement. The first floor is designed to serve two purposes. One, it will serve as a gallery for students to present, and possibly sell, their artwork. The floor will also serve as an area for retail store development, which would provide revenue for Marshall.

The rest of the floors are designed as instructional spaces. A traditional lecture classroom and two smaller seminar spaces will exist for typical classroom use. The design plans allot for about 12 major studio spaces, some being multipurpose and some being specialized.

Open common areas will be on each floor to serve many different purposes. They can be used as critique spaces or exhibition spaces for students and faculty. But they also provide an opportunity for growth if the College of

Arts and Media programs expand.

Each instructional floor will have two to three faculty offices and studios that will be organized based on programs.

The offices will be designed as interactive spaces, with rolling doors between the faculty office and studio to the classroom studio.

The basement has not been designed for any particular purpose at this time. It will serves as a shell space that can evolve into whatever it needs to be depending on program development.

THE PARTHENON Pi Kappa Phi will raise awareness for those with disabilities Thursday with Precision Without Vision on the plaza of the Memorial Student Center. The event will be from 11 a.m. until 4 p.m.

Participates will gain a better understand of what the visually impaired go through by wearing goggles to obscure their vision.

They will be asked to perform tasks such as hitting a golf ball, throwing a basketball into a basket or throwing a football from a distance.

The event is a test of your senses true abilities and the purpose is to show how hard it is to do these seemingly simple activities without certain senses, as well as bring awareness to those with disabilities that must live like this every day.

“It’s part of the education that goes along with it,” Zachary Morris, senior public relations major and member of Pi Kappa Phi, said. “We will be discussing with students the abilities of people with disabilities.”

Morris said if the participates do get a hole in one, make a basket or a goal, they will be able to see that those with disabilities can do it as well.

The main purpose of the event is to bring awareness for Pi Kappa Phi’s philanthropy, Push America, an organization dedicated to raising funds for those with disabilities.

There is no cost to participate, but donations are accepted and all proceeds will go directly toward Push America.

THE PARTHENON The Marshall University Department of Residence Life is sponsoring a Trickor-Treat in the residence halls Wednesday to celebrate the Halloween season.

Children in the community are invited to come into the dorms and receive candy from residences dressed in costumes.

The trick-or-treat will take place in all halls from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m.

The project is slated to cost roughly $13 million. Edward Tucker Architects Inc., a local firm, is leading the renovation project, and Neighborgall Construction is handling the actual renovations.

Plans for parking and city and campus security are in the development stages at this time. Marshall and College of Arts and Media administrators said they are working to determine the best way to handle these issues.

LIBERTARIAN RENAISSANCE

Ideology attracts college students looking for political alternative

By LUCY WESTCOTT

CAPITAL NEWS SERVICE (MCT) Rebecca Coates used to call herself a Republican, but increasingly found she had to be more specific.

“For a long time I thought I was a Republican, but I was always having to add addendums like, ‘I’m Republican, but I think drugs should be legal,’ or ‘I’m Republican, but I don’t want us to be at war overseas,’” said Coates, a student at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County and a member of the campus’s College Libertarians.

Mother of Trayvon Martin urges end to ‘stand-yourground’ laws

Across much of the country, libertarianism is attracting college students and others looking for an alternative.

Libertarianism is becoming especially popular among younger voters, many of whom are tired of the stalemate between Republicans and Democrats in Washington, as evidenced by the 16day government shutdown.

“I think the congressional dysfunction only makes people more interested in other viewpoints,” said Michael Ben-Horin, a Students For Liberty campus coordinator for the

Mid-Atlantic region and president of the George Washington University College Libertarians.

A 2011 Pew Research Center Poll found that 9 percent of Americans identify as libertarian.

The growth in popularity of libertarianism seems to be closely related to the emergence of the tea party.

Theda Skocpol, professor of politics and sociology at Harvard University, co-authored ‘The Tea Party and the Remaking of Republican Conservatism’ in 2011, and discovered an

overlap between tea party and libertarian identification.

“When we did our research in 2011 we found that as many as 40 percent of tea party supporters in Virginia considered themselves libertarian,” Skocpol said.

In this year’s Virginia governor’s race, Libertarian Party candidate Robert Sarvis was third with 11 percent in an Oct. 15 poll by Christopher Newport University’s Judy Ford Watson Center for Public Policy.

Coal industry workers, allies rally against EPA power plant rules

By SARAH SEXTON

MCCLATCHY WASHINGTON BUREAU (MCT) Trayvon Martin’s mother testified before a Senate panel Tuesday, urging states to amend their “stand-your-ground” laws.

Sybrina Fulton described how her son was walking home unarmed in Sanford, Fla., when he was shot and killed by neighborhood watch volunteer George Zimmerman just three weeks after the family had celebrated Martin’s 17th birthday.

Zimmerman’s July trial captured the nation’s attention and sparked heated debate over stand-yourground laws after a jury found him not guilty of second-degree murder and manslaughter.

A stand-your-ground law allows a potential crime victim in fear of grave harm to use deadly force in public places; it also eliminates the duty to retreat.

Between 2000 and 2010, at least 22 states enacted some form of a stand-your-ground law.

Although the Zimmerman defense did not mention such laws at his trial, one of the six jurors in the trial — known only as juror B-37 — told CNN’s Anderson Cooper that Florida’s stand-yourground law was key in the jury’s verdict.

Fulton said she attended the hearing of the Senate Judiciary Committee “to let you know how important it is that we amend this stand-your-ground because it did not work in my case. The person that shot and killed my son is walking the streets today, and this law does not work.”

Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Ill., who presided over the hearing, cited Texas A&M University research suggesting about 600 homicides a year could be linked to standyour-ground laws; the research found no indication that the laws deter crime.

Durbin said the laws encourage a “shoot first” mentality, increase the likelihood that confrontations will escalate to deadly violence and make prosecuting crimes more difficult.

Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, however, questioned the purpose of the hearing, saying the federal government has no authority over state self-defense laws — and that states should make their own judgments. Cruz also said selfdefense is a bedrock liberty and the stand-your-ground laws apply only to cases in which there is an imminent attack that could cause death or serious injury, not to violent aggressors.

A 2011 Pew Research Center Poll found that 9 percent of Americans identify as libertarian. are predominantly male, highly critical of government and disapproving of social welfare programs, according to the Pew poll, although some libertarians find that definition inaccurate.

Income inequality linked to depression, study finds

CURTIS TATE | MCT

Coal industry supporters rally at the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C., Tuesday. In speeches, workers and coal-state lawmakers criticized new EPA rules designed to curb carbon dioxide emissions from power plants. President Barack Obama is deeply unpopular in coal country, but factors other than environmental regulations account for the loss of coal-related jobs.

By CURTIS TATE

MCCLATCHY WASHINGTON BUREAU (MCT) Hundreds of coal industry workers and supporters rallied Tuesday in front of the U.S. Capitol as a parade of coal-state lawmakers assailed the Obama administration as waging a “war on coal” with new environmental rules.

Last month, the Environmental Protection Agency proposed standards aimed at curbing carbon dioxide emissions, a major contributor to global warming, according to most climate scientists. However, the rules would make it nearly impossible to build new coal-fired power plants without expensive and unproven technology to capture carbon dioxide and pump it underground.

On Tuesday, miners from several coal-producing states, some carrying signs that said “Impeach Obama,” cheered as lawmakers of both parties and other speakers criticized the administration.

“I blame one man,” Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., told the crowd. “President Barack Obama.”

Rep. Andy Barr, R-Ky., blasted “unelected, unaccountable bureaucrats” at the EPA. He challenged Obama to come to eastern Kentucky, where more than 6,000 coal-related jobs have vanished in the past two years.

Many counties in the region have an unemployment rate that’s higher than the national and state average.

“It’s not a recession,” said Paul, who’s a potential 2016 Republican presidential candidate. “It’s a depression.”

At a House of Representatives Energy and Commerce Committee

U.S. map shows coal mining states and the amount they produced in 2011; pie chart shows the share of total U.S. electricity generation produced by coal. hearing after the rally, witnesses described coal-dependent communities in crisis.

Eastern Kentucky was the birthplace nearly 50 years ago of President Lyndon Johnson’s War on Poverty, and the social programs it created helped reduce the region’s distress. But plummeting coal employment threatens to erase that progress.

Albey Brock, the top elected official of Bell County in southeast Kentucky, told the Energy and Power Subcommittee that eastern Kentucky depended on coal more than Detroit depended on the auto industry. But

the county of 28,000 has a 14 percent jobless rate, compared with 8 percent statewide and 7 percent nationwide.

“I cannot imagine the EPA calculated the human impact of their decisions,” Brock told lawmakers.

A bill co-sponsored by Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., and Rep. Ed Whitfield, R-Ky., would ease the new EPA rules.

“This bipartisan, bicameral solution will prevent unworkable regulations that threaten to limit America’s power portfolio and make energy more expensive,” Whitfield said in a statement.

LOS ANGELES TIMES (MCT) Women who live in states with the greatest income gaps are at bigger risk of depression, according to a recent study.

Living in states with a vast divide between the wealthy and poor makes people, especially women, more aware of their own financial circumstances and frustrated at being unable to keep up, according to a study published in the Journal of Epidemiology and Community Health.

Roman Pabayo, co-author of the study and a researcher at Harvard University’s School of Public Health, told Reuters that the team studied data from a national mental health report combined with their own calculations on income gaps in the 50 states.

The study found that women living in areas such as Washington, D.C., with a yawning gap between the haves and the havenots, are almost twice as likely to suffer from depression compared with those residing in more equitable states such as Alaska.

The report comes at a time of increased focus on the vast divide between the rich and poor in America. The gap between the wealthiest 1 percent and the rest of the country is at its widest since 1928, according to economists at University of California-Berkeley, Oxford University and the Paris School of Economics, who analyzed data from the Internal Revenue Service.

Robert Shiller, a professor at Yale University who was one of three Americans to win this year’s Nobel Prize in economics, said this month that economic inequality in the U.S. and around the world is a huge problem.

Part of the growing divide can be attributed to stagnant incomes.

Many American workers saw no increase in pay during the recession and its aftermath. When adjusted for inflation, the median household income last year was 8.3 percent lower than in 2007, according to the Census Bureau.

There also are vast differences in income depending on what city a person resides. According to research from 24/7 Wall Street, areas such as Washington, D.C., and San Jose, Calif., ranked at the top for highest median incomes among metropolitan areas. At the very bottom were areas such as Brownsville, Texas, and Dalton, Ga.

Herd cannot sleep on winless Golden Eagles

By BRAXTON CRISP

MARCUS CONSTANTINO | THE PARTHENON

Marshall head coach Doc Holliday calls for a timeout agianst MTSU Oct 24 in Murfreesboro, Tenn.

FOR THE PARTHENON When the Marshall University Thundering Herd takes on the Southern Miss Golden Eagles Saturday inside Joan C. Edwards Stadium, the Herd won’t be taking the Golden Eagles with a grain of salt.

Southern Miss is still dangerous, despite a 0-7 record and being on the losing end of back-to-back 55-14 blowouts to East Carolina and North Texas, the Golden Eagles will be coming into Saturday with as much fire and desire to win as any other team in the country.

Marshall redshirt senior defensive end Alex Bazzie said that the talent level of Southern Miss puts the Herd into an unusual predicament, being that the Golden Eagles have the players, but not the results to show how good they actually are.

“It’s very dangerous, because one, you’re not really aware of what you’re getting yourself into,” said Bazzie, a native of Silver Spring, Md. The Golden Eagles haven’t been barn burners on offense this season, scoring just 10 touchdowns thus far, but Bazzie said that doesn’t mean that this game is an easy one for Marshall.

“You see that there’s talent out there, but you’re not aware that this talent could click at any given time,” Bazzie said. “As far as you know, you’re watching film and they have this talent, but they’re losing. All that talent, and all that speed, and all that ability; it confuses you.”

Not all of the seven losses for Southern Miss have come in the form of blowouts. The season opened with a seven-point loss to Texas State, then the Golden Eagles fell by a single point to Florida International University Oct. 5. In those occasions, the Golden Eagles put up its best performances of the season, and proved that it is capable of hanging around and not being blown out, especially by a fellow Conference USA team. The losses though, do present problems that are impossible to identify.

“You don’t quite know what’s happening, and you won’t know unless you’re part of that system and in those meeting rooms,” Bazzie said.

Marshall head coach Doc Holliday said that Southern Miss has athletes, most especially because of its proximity to recruiting hotbeds such as Louisiana and Alabama.

“They’re a very dangerous team,”

Holliday said. “If you’re located where they’re located, they’re like FAU; they’re going to have players. They’re a team that we’re going to have to be well prepared for.”

The struggles for the Golden Eagles aren’t centralized to this season. A year ago, Marshall faced a similar challenge when the Herd went to Hattiesburg, Miss., being that the Golden Eagles were winless at that time as well. Southern Miss hasn’t won a game since the 2011 Hawaii Bowl against Nevada, after knocking off Houston in the Conference USA Championship game that season and keeping Houston from playing in a BCS bowl game.

That Hawaii Bowl win was 19 games ago, currently the longest winless streak in the FBS. The Golden Eagles were led in 2011 by head coach Larry Fedora and senior quarterback Austin Davis. Since then, Fedora has left and taken the head coaching position at North Carolina, and Davis signed on with the St. Louis Rams Oct. 23 as a free agent.

Fedora and Davis are gone, but that doesn’t mean Southern Miss isn’t capable of coming into Huntington and snapping the 19 game losing streak Saturday.

Herd newcomers give fans glimpse of future against Concord

COLUMN

By WILL VANCE

SPORTS EDITOR When the Herd hit the court against the Concord Mountain Lions in an exhibition game Monday night in the Cam Henderson Center, the nearly 4,000 fans in attendance had little idea what to expect out of the new-look Herd.

With only one major contributor from last season returning, the bright lights of the Cam were on the team’s new additions and at least in exhibition play, the new members of the Herd showed they are ready to help the team compete right now.

New players accounted for 63 of 90 points, 36 of 51 rebounds and played 115 of 200 total minutes for the Herd.

Junior transfer Ryan Taylor made an impression in his home debut, recording the Herd’s only double-double with 14 points and 10 rebounds.

Four of those rebounds game on the offensive glass, including a missed free throw by Taylor that he rebounded and put back up for a bucket.

On a night when the Herd as whole showed good effort and hustle Taylor’s scrappy play stood out.

Redshirt freshman Kareem Canty’s debut at the point guard after having to sit out last season was not exactly sterling, but his potential at the helm of the Herd offense shined. After struggling shooting the ball early, Canty sank five of his last six shots and finished the game with a team-high 15 points, including 4 of 4 from the free throw line where the Herd as a team struggled.

His eight turnovers are certainly not acceptable, but considering that this team is still getting its timing together, the turnover problems should not be a continuing issue. After the game, head

coach Tom Herrion also said that some of the turnovers charged to Canty were good passes that were dropped by their target.

Junior transfers Shawn Smith and Chris Thomas rounded out the new offensive stars, scoring 15 and 14 points, respectively. Smith was also the only Herd player that made over 50 percent of his three-point shots, sinking two of three from behind the arc.

Not all of the new players contributions came on offense. Ohio transfer TyQuane Goard, who sat out last season, pulled down ten rebounds and showed that he was not afraid to do the dirty work in the paint despite his slim physique.

Chiekh Sane, a junior transfer center, accounted for eight rebounds, four offensively and made good use of his length to dominate Concord’s bigs.

After mixing in strong efforts from returning players Elijah Pittman, Tamron Manning and DeVince Boykins, the Herd showed that the newlook team should come together just fine.

Rough edges need to be smoothed out, however. The team’s timing needs improvement, as displayed by some of the turnovers and miscommunication, but with another week of practice before the regular season begins Nov. 8 against South Carolina State the team can only improve in this regard.

Herd fan’s may not have recognized many of the players on the court Monday, but it will not be long before names like Canty, Taylor, Goard and Sane become household names in Huntington.

Anticipation of Winter Olympics amps up at 100-day mark

By FRANK FITZPATRICK

THE PHILADELPHIA INQUIRER (MCT) What would Baron Pierre de Coubertin have thought?

The Olympic movement, the 19th Century French nobleman’s homage to the amateur ideal, collided with 21st century Times Square Tuesday.

As the countdown to the 2014 Winter Games in Sochi hit 100 days, the U.S. Olympic Committee, by now as ardent a marketer as American Eagle, Hershey’s, Marriott or any of the famous square’s other neon-fringed enterprises, celebrated by commandeering the three gaudiest blocks in New York City’s dense commercial forest.

As U.S. medal hopefuls mingled with media members in the fenced-off compound between West 45th and 48th Streets, which also contained a stage, a ski ramp and a hockey rink, thousands of tourists and curious New Yorkers surrounded them.

“I thought the next Olympics were in Rio,” said one onlooker near the snowcoated ski-ramp, where freestyle skiers later performed acrobatics.

The setting was an apt locale for an Olympic movement that, after more than a half-century of promoting amateurism, long ago surrendered to commercial and competitive necessities.

Before USOC spokesman Patrick Sandusky introduced the few dozen athletes assembled on the stage, he first read off a litany of sponsors. As he did, advertisements for clothing, banks and Broadway hits like “Kinky Boots” and “Motown” flashed and glowed like an electronic rainbow.

Uniformed men and women noisily hawking bus-tour tickets milled through the crowds, as did unlicensed Sesame Street characters posing for cash. LCD screens promoted everything from news agencies to magazines to the tweets of

athletes who could not attend.

“This is really unbelievable,” said Stephen Holcomb, the gold medal-winning bobsled driver. “It’s like being at a mall in Disney World.”

At one point, Sandusky’s introductions were interrupted by the shouts of a group protesting Russia’s recently enacted antigay laws. The small group eventually dispersed after being drowned out by the Olympians’ powerful sound system.

“We think that by participating in these Olympics, America is making a big mistake.

We’re condoning Putin’s bigotry,” said protester Damian Gross of the East Village.

“There ought to be a boycott. That’s why we’re here.”

U.S. officials consistently have rejected any calls for a boycott and some American athletes have been reluctant to criticize the host nation.

EDITORIAL

Technology is no excuse to forget work etiquette The everyday use of cell phones and other wireless devices is so widely accepted by our society we don’t give it a second thought. It’s OK to have your cell phone out at the dinner table or be on your tablet during class, but should it be?

We’ve made a lot exceptions for technology to incorporate it into our daily lives. It’s of high priority to us that our smartphones be in our hands at all times, but this comes at a cost. By constantly being focused on the cyber world, we miss what is going on around us, and this makes it easier for our manners to be compromised.

The biggest way this is going to affect college students is when it comes time for

graduation. Moving from college to the working world poses its challenges to the technologically inclined young adult.

It’s easy to not think twice about using wireless devices on our own time, but when it comes to work usage should be handled differently. No matter what liberties we’ve given to our technology dependence, it’s still in poor taste to focus on your smartphone during a business meeting or to use your tablet.

With the latter, the argument is usually that it’s a necessity and we’re capable of multitasking, but this is an excuse. Studies shows that our nonstop multitasking wastes more time than it saves and

has serious effects on our ability to concentrate.

When it comes to professionalism, we have a responsibility to our bosses and to ourselves to be attentive. Being focused on our cell phones, tablets or laptops says that we don’t care about being a team player.

Nothing is greater to future employers than the employees’ undivided attention.

Technology is going to change even more in the next few years and we will undoubtedly adapt. However, it’s important to remember where to draw the line between our personal and professional lives, and remember the courtesies we owe to our co-workers and employers.

Crime reflects libertarian mindset

By HENRY CULVYHOUSE

COLUMNIST America, our politicians and pundits argue, is the home of the free, where a man can say and do what he wants. However, as we all know, there are limits to this freedom, and perhaps no limit is more obvious than the fact in 48 states, it is perfectly legal to drink a case of Busch, but not to smoke a joint. Even though 58 percent of Americans, according to a recent Gallup poll, support legalization, they were reminded once again the limits of their personal liberties.

Federal agents shut down the notorious Silk Road website Oct. 1, arresting Ross Ulbricht in connection with operating it and seizing $4 million in assets.

Ulbricht developed the Silk Road in January 2011 as one of the many black markets developed on the “dark net.”

Without tech jargon, the “dark net” is a network of servers that allow computers to tap into it to be untraceable when they connect to a website. Since the Silk Road was the eBay of drugs, guns and forged documents, anonymity for both buyer and seller was essential.

Wildly successful, the Silk Road attracted one million customers and saw

$1.2 billion in sales. Ulbricht was reported to have made $80 million through commissions.

While much of the commentary on the shutdown has centered on Internet security and the war on drugs, I would like to take a look at Ulbricht’s motivations for the site, which he admits were part monetary and part political. At a time when our country is debating the merits of more or less government involvement in the marketplace, I find it intriguing that Ulbricht, allegedly under his username Dread Pirate Roberts, espoused market place libertarianism on Silk Road forums.

In October 2012, Dread Pirate Roberts wrote, “Silk Road was founded on libertarian principles and continues to be operated on them.” He further elaborated, “it is regulated by market forces, not a central power… the same principles that have allowed Silk Road to flourish can and do work anywhere human beings come together.”

Dread Pirate Robert’s political persuasion illustrates what I see as a division in American libertarianism, between civil libertarianism and marketplace libertarianism. Democrats tend to be more civil libertarian, supporting marijuana legalization and gay marriage. Marketplace

libertarians believe the economy should not be regulated. Many Republicans, particularly of the Tea Party variety, fit this mold. Dread Pirate Roberts fits into both.

Certainly there are plenty of criminals who espouse political beliefs as the motivations for committing their crimes. Terrorists are an obvious example. These criminals argue, “The ends justify the means.”

Dread Pirate Roberts is an interesting character because what would normally be a means, selling drugs, was the end itself. For Roberts, “every single transaction that takes place outside the nexus of state control is a victory for those individuals taking part in the transaction.” While he did make $80 million off his activism, there is no denying, setting up a black market outside of government reach was pretty much in line with the tenants of libertarianism.

The fact one can take a criminal enterprise and base it wholly off libertarian ideals is very telling of how repressive our society is. The most sovereign possession we have, our human body, is restricted from what we want to do with it.

The missile to nowhere?

By CHARLES V. PENA

MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE (MCT) If the Gravina Island Bridge in Alaska is the “bridge to nowhere” — a symbol of wasteful government spending on an unneeded project — the Pentagon equivalent is the Medium Extended Air Defense System (MEADS).

The Gravina Island Bridge was supposed to cost $398 million to connect the town of Ketchikan (population 8,250) with its airport on the Island of Gravina (population 50) — even though ferry service already connected the two locations. But $398 million is a drop in the bucket compared to the “missile to nowhere”; MEADS’ projected cost is $19 billion.

More than $2 billion already has been spent and the program is over budget and more than 10 years behind schedule.

The MEADS program began in 1995 as a three-nation, shared-cost program with Italy and Germany to replace the Patriot missile defense system. The claimed advancement to be made

by MEADS over Patriot is 360-degree fire control and surveillance radars that are supposed to provide an extended coverage area with fewer units. The system is funded 58 percent by the United States, 25 percent by Germany, and 17 percent by Italy. In theory, an example of defense “burden sharing.”

But promises of improved performance and the benefits of burden sharing are largely meaningless given MEADS’ program history.

In March 2010, after 15 years in development, but not having reached production and deployment, the Army — which would own and operate MEADS — decided that it “would not meet U.S. requirements or address the current and emerging threat without extensive and costly modifications” and recommended that it be cancelled.

In February 2011, after deciding that it couldn’t afford to deploy MEADS, the Pentagon strangely decided to continue funding design and development, despite the fact that it would never be produced or fielded. The Department of Defense claimed the United States could not unilaterally withdraw from the

MEADS program without incurring termination fees (because of the partnership with Germany and Italy) of nearly $1 billion. But such logic is the very definition of throwing good money after bad.

Yet, that is exactly what we have done. Even as the Pentagon requested $800 million in additional funding for MEADS, it admitted that it was “a program that has had a very troubled history.” Nonetheless, Congress obliged and approved full funding in September 2011 (for fiscal year 2012).

In April 2012, the Pentagon changed its mind about the possibility of having to pay termination costs. Though the House and Senate Armed Services Committees (as well as the House Appropriations Committee) zeroed out the program, eliminating its funding, the Senate provided a $380 million earmark for MEADS for fiscal year 2013.

Beyond the ridiculousness of continuing to spend hundreds of millions of dollars on a weapon system that will never be produced or used (Can you imagine a company like Apple engaging in such folly?), the reality is that MEADS is not essential U.S. national security.

The American homeland is not confronted by the kind of threat MEADS is supposed to defeat: shorter-range tactical ballistic missiles.

U.S. forces deployed abroad are, however. But MEADS isn’t needed to protect them. Although more than 20 years old, the Patriot missile has proven itself in combat and can continue to fill that role. Moreover – as our experience in Iraq and Afghanistan demonstrates – the most likely threat to those forces is not missiles, but improvised explosive devices (IEDs).

Defense’s fiscal year 2014 budget request does not include funding for MEADS. But that doesn’t mean that congressional backers of the program won’t try to reinstate it, as they did during the last budget go-around.

Assuming Congress and the president can come to terms on a budget (or continuing resolution), this would be a good time to cut our losses, admit that MEADS has been a costly mistake, and stop needless spending on the missile to nowhere.

Tuition increases at US public colleges at lowest rate in decades

By LARRY GORDON

LOS ANGELES TIMES (MCT) The rise in tuition at public colleges slowed this year to the smallest increase in more than three decades, although financial aid has not kept pace to cover the hikes, according to a College Board study released Wednesday.

At public four-year colleges and universities across the country, the average price for tuition and fees rose 2.9 percent this year — the smallest annual rise in 38 years — to $8,893 for in-state students, the report said. Room and board adds about $9,500.

However, analysts urged students and families to pay closer attention to what they described as the more important figure: the net average cost after grants, tax credits and deductions. That was $3,120, up from $3,050 last year, for average net tuition and fees at four-year public colleges.

“It does seem that the spiral is moderating — not turning around, not ending, but moderating,” said Sandy Baum, a co-author of the College Board study and research professor at George Washington University.

Baum said that the relatively small increase, while still above the general 2 percent inflation, was good news and that she hoped it will encourage more students to enroll in college and apply for financial aid.

The tuition hikes at fouryear public colleges from 2010 through 2012 had averaged 7.9 percent, 8.5 percent and 4.5 percent, respectively.

California contributed to this year’s national slowdown: the University of California and California State University systems froze tuition for the second year in a row after sharp increases for 2011.

At private nonprofit colleges, the average sticker price for tuition and fees was up 3.8 percent, to $30,094. That was a bit less than the rise of at least 4 percent in each of the previous three years. The much lower net cost, what students actually pay, averaged $12,460 after grants and tax benefits, up $530 from last year, the College Board reported.

LIBERTARIANISM

Continued from Page 2 The UMBC group includes one of seven Maryland chapters of Young Americans for Liberty, an organization founded in 2008 by Jeff Frazee, who worked as a youth coordinator for former Texas Rep. Ron Paul, a libertarian who unsuccessfully ran for president on the Republican ticket in 2012. There are four newly forming chapters in the state, including Mount St. Mary’s University and the University of Baltimore, joining the three already active chapters.

“There’s definitely a trend on the national basis and a significant growth in young libertarians,” said Yaron Brook, executive director of

RALLY

Continued from Page 2 However, coal isn’t threatened just by EPA regulations.

The deepest recession since the Great Depression reduced demand for electricity, and the market hasn’t experienced a strong recovery.

An abundance of cheaper natural gas unlocked by hydraulic fracturing has made coal less attractive to domestic utilities.

Coal generates less than 40 percent of the nation’s electricity, down from half a decade ago.

Natural gas, meanwhile, has increased its share from 20 percent to about 30 percent.

WINTER

One, for some reason, asked snowboarder Louie Vito if he used to watch the long-gone TV show “Magnum P.I. as a youngster.

“No,” said Vito. “I’m not that old. I was more a ‘Saved by the Bell’ kind of kid.”

After the interview sessions, various athletes took to the makeshift venues. Curlers, figure skaters and hockey players buzzed around the ice, while snowboarders and freestyle skiers

Room and board at private schools average about $10,820.

Both public and private colleges have faced more pressure from the public and federal government to keep costs down, said economist Jennifer Ma, a coauthor of the report. “Obviously, they have been mindful of that,” she said. For example, President Barack Obama has proposed a new college rating system that takes pricing and financial aid into account.

Plus, with the recession receding, some state governments have started to restore higher education funding that had been cut after tax revenues shrank five years ago, experts said. California voters last year, for example, approved Proposition 30, which increased some taxes that helped avoid tuition hikes.

Once again, the annual College Board survey highlights California’s two-year community colleges as the best bargain in the nation, with tuition and other fees for state residents averaging $1,424, compared with $3,264 nationwide.

UC’s $13,200 in tuition and campus-based fees this year is

above the $9,804 average at all doctoral degree-granting public universities, while Cal State’s average $6,695 is below the $7,750 for master’s degree institutions nationally.

A related College Board report tackled the controversial issue of rising student debt as part of the overall aid package. College Board President David Coleman said that too many students may be scared away from college by fears that education loans would be impossible to pay off when, he said, most college graduates are able to manage those payments.

According to the report, 57 percent of graduates of public four-year colleges in 2011-12 had school debt, with the average at $25,000. That amount is 22 percent higher than the load carried by graduates a decade ago.

At private nonprofit colleges, 65 percent of 2011-12 graduates had debt averaging $29,900, which was 24 percent more than a decade ago. Those figures do not include students who transferred into the colleges.

Coleman estimated that such loads would require payments of about $300 a month over 10

years, which he believes is manageable and worthwhile given the boost in income that most people receive over the long haul by earning a college degree.

“I don’t diminish the concerns,” he said. “But I want to be clear that a college education is one of the best investments a student or their families can make in terms of health, income and upward mobility.”

Debbie Cochrane, research director for the Institute for College Access & Success, which pushes for college affordability, said that because many recent graduates are having a hard time finding well-paying jobs, many are straining to make their payments and are postponing car and house purchases and marriage as a result.

“It really is a signal of the financial toll the debt is taking,” Cochrane said.

Students and parents should beware of colleges that show high loan default rates among their former students.

“That may show they have to question the quality of the education being provided,” Cochrane said.

the Irvine, Calif.-based Ayn Rand Institute. “It’s a generation that’s being screwed by their elders. The baby boomer generation loaded themselves up with goodies at the expense of young people.”

Frustrated with what they perceive as burdensome government regulations promoted by Democrats, and intrusive social policies and over-reaching foreign policy supported by Republicans, young people have increasingly taken to libertarianism over the past five or six years, Brook said.

Jared Naumann, president of the University of Maryland, Baltimore County College Libertarians, which includes members of Students For Liberty, the Libertarian Party and Young Americans for Liberty, did not expect so much

enthusiasm when he set up the group a year ago.

“Once it became official and once I had an executive board, it took off. I never expected to get this far, I never expected an official club. I expected, at most, five people on the mailing list,” said Naumann, an information systems major who grew up in a libertarian household.

There are now 74 people on the opt-in mailing list, and 23 people signed up at the campus involvement fair in September, Naumann said.

Many of the group’s students discovered their beliefs aligned with libertarianism after growing up in conservative households.

Libertarians often overlap with conservatives on economic

policies, but tend to diverge on social issues.

“A lot of kids who are libertarian now were raised in conservative households, so they might live a very conservative lifestyle in terms of what they value, but when it comes down to it, they want to be free to make their own decisions about things,” said Coates, from Harford County.

Jordyn Vogel, a biology for pre-dental major, said a key component of libertarianism is the distinction between personal and political opinions.

“Whether I personally think that homosexual people should get married doesn’t matter, because I don’t think the government should define what is and isn’t considered marriage,” Vogel said.

Renewables such as wind and solar have steadily increased their share of the energy market, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration.

“This isn’t something the government did,” said Rep. Henry Waxman, D-Calif., the ranking member on the House Energy and Commerce Committee.

“This is something the market dictated.”

More than a century of mining coal in Central Appalachia has depleted what’s economically recoverable, according to Jason Bailey, the research and policy director of the Mountain Association for Community Economic Development in Berea, Ky. He

said the decline had started well before the recession, the rise of natural gas or the Obama EPA’s focus on carbon emissions.

“It’s not going to come back,” he said. “There’s beginning to be some acceptance of that.”

On Monday, Rep. Hal Rogers, a Republican whose district spans much of the struggling eastern Kentucky coalfield, and Kentucky Gov. Steve Beshear, a Democrat, announced a December economic summit to discuss ideas to wean the region off coal.

It’s common for multiple generations of Appalachian families to have worked in coalmines.

Michael Warrix, of Prestonsburg, Ky., said his father had spent 38

years in the mines and was still working.

“He can’t leave it,” said Warrix, who attended Tuesday’s rally.

“There’s no place to go.”

But Warrix can’t find steady work in the mines. He said he was taking community college classes with the goal of transferring to the University of Kentucky’s engineering school.

Bailey said policy makers in Kentucky and Washington were failing to help the region overcome the long-term decline of its mainstay industry with job training and education.

“That responsibility has been ignored,” he said. “It should be part of energy policy.”

Halloween livens things up for makeup artists

By HUGO MARTIN

LOS ANGELES TIMES (MCT) By day, they apply lipstick, rouge and powder to create that vibrant, flawless look.

But by night they use their skills to paint a picture of death, punctuated with scars, bloody gashes and deformities.

For makeup artists, Halloween is a super job creator. Theme parks and other haunted attractions employ dozens of artists to turn actors into zombies, demons, crazed mutants and other assorted freaks.

But the holiday can mean long hours, with Halloween events stretching from the early-afternoon to the early-morning hours.

On a recent Friday afternoon, makeup artist Andria Farrell toiled behind the scenes at Universal Studios Hollywood’s “Halloween Horror Nights.” Her mission was to turn a young actress into a possessed character who had taken a nail gun to her face.

Farrell carefully glued fake nails onto the actress’ cheeks and forehead.

“It’s definitely a different mind-set from my day job,” she said, referring to her position at the Sephora makeup counter in the Westfield Fashion Square mall in Sherman Oaks, Calif.

The life of a makeup artist is not always pretty.

Artists who work in beauty salons or stores typically earn only about $30,000 per year, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. Those who work in the entertainment industry might get as much as $83,000 annually, but the work is often sporadic.

So makeup artists look forward to the surge in demand when haunted attractions and theme parks launch into their annual Halloween events, many of which run the entire month of October.

“I consider Halloween the national holiday for makeup artists,” said Susan Cabral-Ebert, president of the Make-up Artists and Hair Stylists Guild, Local 706. “They do have to scramble for jobs all year round, but this is when our artistic skills come into demand.”

Those skills are needed to create the killer misfits and rabid monsters who roam Six Flags Magic Mountain’s “Fright Fest” in Valencia, Calif., and to give life to evil circus performers for the Queen Mary’s “Dark Harbor” in Long Beach, Calif. In Buena Park, Calif., Knott’s Berry Farm hires about 40 makeup artists for the park’s “Knott’s Scary Farm Haunt,” from mid-September until Nov. 2.

But Universal Studios’ Halloween event has a reputation for having the best special effects, thanks partly to Larry Bones. His special effects company, Boneyard Effects Inc., hires the artists

"Ender's Game" "Last Vegas" "Free Birds" "About Time" "Dallas Buyers Club"

for the theme park.

They’ve also produced many of the effects in movies such as “Shallow Hal” and “Dr. Doolittle 2.”

The theme park employs 41 artists to work on the 500 or so actors who haunt six mazes and five “scare zones.” “Halloween Horror Nights” runs on select nights from Sept. 20 to Nov. 2.

Universal converts an empty parking structure into its “Scare Base,” where actors begin to line up about 2:45 p.m. to don costumes and take turns in the makeup chairs.

“It’s basically a giant assembly line of gore,” said the event’s creative director, John Murdy.

Speed is crucial, he said, because the ghouls and demonic creatures need to be in place when “Horror Nights” opens at 7 p.m.

On a recent afternoon, the makeup artists worked at rows of tables with lighted mirrors while zombies, demons and deranged clowns shuffled by. Mutants and bloody prison guards waited outside, smoking cigarettes. Along a wall, hundreds of foam masks lined a shelf, each marked with a number assigned to a character.

In Hollywood horror movies, makeup artists might spend four hours or more completing a complicated character. But for theme park monsters, the artists have a maximum of 45 minutes.

“There are certain things you can speed up and other things you can’t,” said Murdy, who helped dream up each of the park’s characters with the help of Bones and Chris Williams, the art director for “Halloween Horror Nights.”

Once the artists at Universal are finished with makeup, they ride vans to locations throughout the park, where they wait to touch up makeup over the course of the evening. They wrap up when the park closes at 2 a.m.

The makeup process became more timeconsuming this year because Universal Studios began adding colored contact lenses to the costumes of actors portraying possessed characters from the movie “Evil Dead.”

“I love this stuff,” makeup artist Rachel Dubin said as she applied a pale layer of powder to a zombie character. “It’s so much more challenging than what I do during the day.”

When she isn’t creating monsters and zombies, Dubin is working in La Canada, Calif., on an independent movie about a bank heist, making actresses look vibrant and alluring.
