Austin Ansay transitions from player to coach By Ryan Loberger @LobergerRyan
There’s a saying in the sports world that athletes die twice: They die when they retire from the sport and they die when they die. Austin Ansay, a former member of the Colorado State men’s hockey team, can attest to this philosophy.
“It’s definitely tough at first, but it gets easier as time moves on,” Ansay said. “But (it’s) not that easy.” Since his American Collegiate Hockey Aassociation eligibility ended in December, Ansay has made the transition to coaching on the men’s team, helping at practices and home games. “He was helping out when
we had our home-stand last weekend and he’s been asking me how long it took me to get over not playing,” Assistant Coach Jameson Wicks said. “You can tell he’s still gritting his teeth on the bench, he misses being out there.” Wicks, also a former member of the men’s team, had some advice for Ansay during the transition. Wicks cites staying
close to the sport in the form of volunteering or coaching to help mend the withdrawal that comes with retirement. “I told him that’s why I’m still involved with the team,” Wicks said. “It’s because I still love being a part of it and it’s something that’s a huge part of my life. It took me a while to get over it too, we’re all competitive and it’s hard to step away from
it when you’re done.” Ansay’s career began at age five and on a roller hockey rink rather than on ice. “I played competitive roller hockey until I was about 10 years old, then I made the choice to transition to ice hockey,” Ansay said. “I played with the Jr. Pioneers then

CITY
Fort Collins, CSU prepares for electric scooters By Julia Trowbridge @chapin_jules
A new type of transportation might be coming to Fort Collins. With the growing popularity of electric scooters, the City of Fort Collins and Colorado State University are currently working on regulations for electric scooter use in order to avoid issues other cities and campuses have had with them. The process of creating regulations for this is still in its preliminary stage, said Amanda Mansfield, a transportation planner with FC Moves, a part of Fort Collins’ transportation planning department. The department plans to present the code change updates to City Council on Feb. 19 and March 5, with an expectation to launch the changes to the code in the spring or summer of 2019.
“FC Moves is dedicated to promoting alternative, sustainable modes of transportation and we think of E-scooters as a good opportunity to expand the suite of alternative transportation options” AMANDA MANSFIELD TRANSPORTATION PLANNER WITH FC MOVES
“We’re putting together the regulations we need ... so that we’re prepared to have a partnership with them similar to the bike share partnership, which means it’s an ongoing, involved partnership and we’re very invested in how this unfolds,” Mansfield said. Currently, Fort Collins is looking at what other cities have done to regulate the usage of electric scooters, Mansfield said. Some of the options they are looking at include scooter companies conducting outreach education on how to properly use the scooters and agreements on where they can be parked and operated. “FC Moves is dedicated to promoting alternative, sustainable modes of transportation and we think of E-scooters as a good opportunity to expand the suite of alternative transportation options,” Mansfield said. “We think of it as something
Scooters from companies like Lime and Bird line the streets of downtown Austin, Texas, one of the cities that has a large amount of electric scooters.

that could compliment bike share and compliment transit.” CSU and Fort Collins plan to work together on the scooter regulations, said Aaron Fodge, CSU’s alternative transportation manager. Additionally, Fodge said, a press release detailing how the two plan to work together with the electric scooter regulations will be published next week. “I think for the most part things will be fairly similar,” Fodge said. “We have a dismount zone and I know the City also has a dismount zone … (which) would be extended to e-scooters as well. We want to make sure everyone’s safe.” Fodge said Colorado law prohibits electric scooters from street use. Multiple scooter companies have expressed interest in coming to Fort Collins and CSU, Fodge said. Although Fodge did not state which specific ones had reached out, prominent companies in the industry like Bird and Lime are a couple of examples of scooter company options interested in the city. Jordan Blakesley, who works public relations with Lime, said the company is “eager to provide new mobility op-
tions in Fort Collins in the near future.” Bird government communications spokesperson Mackenzie Long expressed similar sentiments. “Bird has no expansion plans to announce at this time, but we believe Fort Collins would be a great place to provide our affordable, environmentally friendly transportation option,” Long said. “We hope to collaborate with city officials there in the future.” Fodge said CSU students have indirectly expressed interest in the possibility of electric scooters coming to campus as well. In addition, some students have asked Parking and Transportation services if they can ride their personal electric scooters. “We’ve seen privately owned scooters already on campus, there’s probably a handful that are already here,” Fodge said. “I would say, anecdotally there are interested students. But the reality is, nationwide, they’re very popular, so I think it’s not too far of a stretch to think that students are a part of that.” Julia Trowbridge can be reached at news@collegian.com.

New student group to host first CSU Lantern Festival next month By Stuart Smith @stuartsmithnews
A lantern festival will be coming to Colorado State University through the efforts of the University’s Southeast Asian Student Organization. In a slideshow presentation to the Associated Students of CSU Senate Wednesday night, SEASO explained why this will be their first event. They also were requesting that the Senate guarantee help in marketing of the event and adopt the CSU Lantern Festival as an official ASCSU tradition. The Festival has been largely funded with money from the ASCSU Executive Branch. The original Lantern Festival, held monthly on the night of the full moon in the Vietnamese city of Hoi An, is a centuries-old gathering of people from all around the region. And it won’t just be for CSU students of Asian heritage. “That’s why we didn’t call it the Vietnamese Lantern Festival,” said SEASO Financial Director Brendan Looi. Founded last semester, SEASO is pushing to show CSU students “what Asian culture is all about,” Looi said. Part of that exposure will be the catering of food like pho and goi cuon, Vietnamese rolls. “It’s going to be an informal sort of thing,” Looi said. SEASO started in the fall as an
organization aimed at building an environment on campus where people either connected to or interested in Southeast Asia can connect, feeling that the culture can bring more diversity and knowledge to CSU.
“As a group who tries its best to represent Southeast Asian cultures in CSU we feel that the beauty of this festival would naturally be a good ice breaker for many CSU students and locals to start formulating an understanding of the beautiful cultures and traditions Southeast Asians have celebrated for centuries.” COLORADO STATE UNIVERSITY SOUTHEAST ASIAN ORGANIZATION
The next full moon is Feb. 19, but SEASO is looking to hold the CSU Lantern Festival either the 15 or 22 of February, both days when more students would be available. SEASO Vice President Muhammad Ashaari went over the safety measures they have taken

for the festival, such as having the lanterns tied to bricks, instead of letting them fly away like in Hoi An. Police and firefighters would be on hand for any first-aid emergencies, and fire-retardant cable would be used to tie the lanterns down. All participants in the event will be required to sign a waiver as well.
“As a group who tries its best to represent Southeast Asian cultures in CSU we feel that the beauty of this festival would naturally be a good ice breaker for many CSU students and locals to start formulating an understanding of the beautiful cultures and traditions Southeast Asians have celebrated for centuries,” SEASO wrote. ASCSU Women’s Caucus Chair
Merall Sherif voiced her support for the festival and encouraged her fellow Senators to approve it. “I think, over everything, this event brings our community together, and that it’s inviting to all cultures,” Sherif said. “They really want everyone to come together as Rams.” Stuart Smith can be reached at news@collegian.com.

Larimer County Jail inmate Fatal collision temporarily found unresponsive in cell closes College-Trilby By Austin Fleskes

@MeaganStackpool
An inmate at Larimer County Jail was found unresponsive by jail deputies late last week. During a routine inmate status check Jan. 25 at 1:48 p.m., a Larimer County Jail deputy found an “unresponsive male” in a cell with a mattress cover around his neck, according to a press release from Larimer County Sheriff’s Office. According to the report, deputies and jail medical staff immediately began lifesaving efforts. Later, the inmate was transported to a local hospital to receive additional medical treatment. During this incident, no other inmates were in the same cell or involved. The 8th Judicial District Critical Incident Response Team was activated to oversee this investigation,
A two-car collision at the intersection of College Avenue and Trilby Road resulting in the death of one of the drivers occurred Wednesday. Just before 1 p.m., Fort Collins Police Services responded to the accident between a 1993 Pontiac sedan and a 1988 Ford truck at the intersection, according to a press release from FCPS. According to the release, an 86-year-old woman was attempting to make a left turn at the intersection when she collided with a 37-year-old male driving in the opposite direction. The man, later identified as Antonio Barrientos III, sustained minor injuries. The woman received much more severe injuries and was transported to the Medical

Center of the Rockies. She was pronounced dead at the hospital. Her identity will be released by the Larimer County Coroner after the family has been notified. Preliminary reports say the speed of the vehicle, drugs or alcohol are not believed to be factors of the collision, according to FCPS. The FCPS Collision Reconstruction and Scene Handling Team investigated and closed surrounding roadways for approximately three and a half hours. Traffic has resumed since then. FCPD asks that anyone with additional information, who has not already spoken to police, should contact Officer Drew Jurkofsky at 970-4162224. Meagan Stackpool can be reached at news@collegian. com.

Ranks of air controllers could shrink more because of shutdown By Alan Levin Bloomberg News
The 35-day partial government shutdown could spur early retirements among the already thin ranks of air-traffic controllers and may postpone adoption of critical satellite-based aircraft navigation, a union official warned. It will take years to recover from the disruptions that resulted from people being kept off the job while safety-critical employees like controllers had to work without pay, Paul Rinaldi, president of the National Air Traffic Controllers Association, said in a speech on Tuesday in Washington. “This shutdown cut us deep,” Rinaldi said. “It cut government employees deep. It cut our aviation industry deep. We’re just starting to stitch it back up. We’re not even sure what the damage really is.” Air-traffic staffing is at a 30year low and more and more retirements could cause periodic slowdowns in the aviation system, Rinaldi said. In recent days, he added, he’s heard reports of at least a handful of people opting to leave earlier than anticipated as a result of the shutdown. “We know we have lost some,” he said. Computer Upgrade The shutdown also halted work on a computer upgrade needed so
controllers can track planes using so-called ADS-B instead of radar. The upgrade is an important foundation of the modernization effort known as NextGen that’s designed to make flight paths more efficient and safer. Airlines and other aircraft operators are spending billions of dollars to equip their planes with the satellite technology before the end of the year. The Federal Aviation Administration has said it’s setting priorities after the shutdown as it attempts to resume normal operations. “We will do our best to keep ADS-B on track and on schedule,” the agency said in a statement after Rinaldi’s speech. The nation’s controllers, who were forced to work without pay for 35 days during the funding impasse, seemed to be a catalyst to bringing the standoff to an end on Friday. When six controllers out of 13 called in sick at a Virginia air-traffic facility, the agency couldn’t handle the normal flight volume along the East Coast and began holding planes on the ground. The flight delays that cascaded to New York’s LaGuardia Airport and other airports were never officially linked to the shutdown and, according to the union, overall controller absentee rates had been lower than average. But the delays nevertheless became emblematic of the growing dysfunction in
government and prompted widespread news coverage. By Friday afternoon, a temporary impasse had been reached allowing lawmakers and President Donald Trump until Feb. 15 to reach agreement on government funding.
“This shutdown cut us deep. It cut government employees deep. It cut our aviation industry deep. We’re just starting to stitch it back up. We’re not even sure what the damage really is.” PAUL RINALDI PRES. OF THE NATIONAL AIR TRAFFIC CONTROLLERS ASSOCIATION
Starting Dec. 22, funds had been halted for more than a dozen major agencies and departments in a dispute over Trump’s demand that Congress approve $5.7 billion for a wall on the Mexico border. Democratic lawmakers objected to the wall. Rinaldi said he had begun hearing reports of his members making errors during the shutdown as a

result of the stress from working without pay. While the errors didn’t directly jeopardize safety, it was a sign that things were getting worse. As a result of the shutdown, the FAA halted training for new controllers, postponed work on multiple new technology systems and stopped monitoring routine safety reports, Rinaldi said. While the FAA hopes to resume training new controllers at its academy in Oklahoma City, it was closed for weeks and the contract employees who help with training may never get the back pay that
Congress has already guaranteed for federal employees, he said. One of the frustrating aspects of the shutdown is that the FAA’s Airport and Airway Trust Fund, which is funded by taxes and fees mainly paid by aircraft flying in the air-traffic system, couldn’t be used to pay for normal government operations, Rinaldi said. It has a surplus of more than $6 billion and should be used to ensure that future shutdowns don’t hit the air-traffic system, he said. Content pulled from Tribune News Service.

Trump congratulates Guaidó on presidency, amid unrest in Venezuela By John T. Bennett CQ-Roll Call
President Donald Trump Wednesday morning spoke by phone with Juan Guaidó, whom he has recognized as Venezuela’s interim president, amid violence and political unrest there. Trump called Guaidó to “congratulate him on his historic assumption of the presidency and to reinforce President Trump’s strong support for Venezuela’s fight to regain its democracy,” press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said in a statement. During the call, Guaidó “noted the importance of the large protests across Venezuela agaóóóinst former dictator (Nicolas) Maduro, set to occur today and Saturday,” she added. The duo agreed to maintain “regular communication to support Venezuela’s path back to stability, and to rebuild the bilateral relationship between the United States and Venezuela,” Sanders said. The call is aimed at further boosting Guaidó in the eyes of his countrymen—especially the military, which remains mostly aligned with Maduro—by putting the powers of the presidency in his corner. Prior to the call, Vice President
Mike Pence had communicated directly with what the administration calls the country’s interim president.
“Chest-thumping declarations that melt away over time weaken American power and credibility. In Venezuela, if the armed forces continue to back Maduro, then last week’s move may come to look feckless, while offering Maduro the opportunity to rally his domestic and foreign backers against U.S. intervention.” CHRISTOPHER S. MURPHY DEMOCRATIC SENATOR OF CONNECTICUT BEN RHODES FORMER DEPUTY NATIONAL SECURITY ADVISER TO OBAMA
On Monday, during a rare White House press briefing, National Security Adviser John
Bolton and Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin announced the Trump administration is slapping new sanctions on Venezuela’s stateowned oil company to prevent Maduro from taking funds for his own use from the outfit. Mnuchin called on all U.S. allies to follow Trump’s lead by recognizing Guaidó as Venezuela’s interim president. He and Bolton reiterated that Trump is keeping “all options” on the table for dealing with the political unrest there, including the use of U.S. military force. As Bolton briefed reporters, a photographer snapped a picture of his yellow legal pad that had these words written on it: “5,000 troops to Colombia.” The administration’s tough talk about and actions toward Maduro started amid a 35-day government shutdown that polls show has left Trump with some political scars as he gears up for a re-election battle. The approach has not been without criticism. Sen. Christopher S. Murphy, D-Conn., joined with Ben Rhodes, the former deputy national security adviser to President Barack Obama, to question the wisdom of recognizing an interim president who may not actually control the country. “Chest-thumping declarations

that melt away over time weaken American power and credibility. In Venezuela, if the armed forces continue to back Maduro, then last week’s move may come to look feckless, while offering Maduro the opportunity to rally his domestic and foreign backers against U.S. intervention,” Murphy and Rhodes wrote in the Washington Post. “Reckless talk of military options only compounds this problem— there is no credible U.S. military option to invade Venezuela, and it would be dangerous and destabiliz-
ing to do so.” The White House’s saber-rattling has also led some Democratic lawmakers and other critics charging the president is “wagging the dog,” meaning inflating the U.S. response to the unrest in the South American country to distract from his domestic troubles, which also include the indictment by Special Counsel Robert S. Mueller III of Roger Stone, a longtime political adviser to Trump. Content pulled from Tribune News Service.

UCF student arrested, had fully automatic AR-15 in vehicle, police say By Jeff Weiner Orlando Sentinel
An engineering student at the University of Central Florida was arrested after police discovered he was keeping a fully-automatic AR-15 in his car at an on-campus dorm, authorities said. UCF police began investigating Max Bennett Chambers, 19, after receiving a tip that he possessed drop-in auto sears, which can be used to convert a semiautomatic rifle into an automatic weapon. According to an affidavit, Chambers allowed police to search his vehicle at the Towers at Knights Plaza, a complex of apartment-style dorm towers on the main campus. The AR15 was found inside the vehicle and Chambers admitted to owning it, police said. An FDLE firearm instructor test-fired the weapon and confirmed it was fully automatic, the affidavit said. The gun was found with a brand-new sixround magazine, but was able to fire at least 19 rounds consecutively with a single trigger pull, police said. “The test fire confirmed the AR-15 is a machine gun,” the affidavit said. According to police, Chambers confessed to manufacturing three of the devices in December and testing one on the AR-15 earlier this month. He
said he knew using the device was illegal, “but said he does not like laws,” according to the arrest affidavit. “He knowingly and flagrantly disregarded the law and that’s unacceptable to us,” UCF Police Chief Carl Metzger told reporters. “I don’t think anyone would consider it a good idea to have a machine gun on a college campus. This isn’t Afghanistan.” Florida’s recently-enacted ban on so-called bump-fire stocks, which convert semiautomatic firearms to mimic fully-automatic weapons, prohibits the possession of any device which alters the firing rate of a gun to replicate automatic weapon fire.
“He knowingly and flagrantly disregarded the law and that’s unacceptable to us. I don’t think anyone would consider it a good idea to have a machine gun on a college campus. This isn’t Afghanistan.” CARL METZGER ORLANDO CHIEF OF POLICE
According to the affidavit, Chambers also possessed a bump stock. He faces charges of possession of a machine gun
and a bump-fire stock. The sophomore mechanical engineering major has also been trespassed from campus, the Police Department said. Metzger said Chambers, who lived in Tower 3, never made any threats to the university. He has been temporarily suspended pending student conduct proceedings, the police chief said. “We believe he’s an enthusiast who put his interest in firearms above complying with the law,” Metzger said. UCF policy prohibits weapons from being possessed or stored on university property, but allows for them to be kept in a private vehicle as long as they are “not readily accessible for immediate use.” UCFPD previously had contact with Chambers in spring 2018. According to police, Chambers had a part of a firearm in his dorm, which wasn’t illegal but was against campus rules. Officers explained the policy violation to Chambers at the time, officials said. Detectives are still investigating, UCF police said in the statement, adding that the U.S. Attorney’s Office has also been notified that federal laws may have been violated. Chambers was booked into the Orange County Jail about 4:15 p.m. Tuesday with bail set at $5,150, records show. During his first appearance before a judge, he testified that he is a

full-time student and does not have a job. He was released Wednesday afternoon. A woman listed in the affidavit as Chambers’ next-of-kin declined to comment when reached by phone. The Towers at Knights Plaza complex, located on the northeast corner of campus near many of UCF’s athletic facilities, was the scene of a mass-shooter scare in March 2013. Police said James Oliver Seevakumaran, a former student who was facing eviction,
penned a “manifesto” documenting his plans to massacre fellow residents of Tower 1 with guns and explosives after flushing them out of their rooms by pulling a fire alarm. He pulled the alarm just after midnight March 18, 2013, and pointed a rifle at a roommate, who retreated into a bedroom and called 911. Seevakumaran killed himself soon after. In his dorm, police found explosives, a semiautomatic rifle and 1,000 rounds. Content pulled from Tribune News Service.

Processed meat Students should learn from Michigan State’s Nassar Scandal should be taxed higher Abby Vander Graaff @abbym_vg
Editor’s Note: All opinion section content reflects the views of the individual author only and does not represent a stance taken by The Collegian or its editorial board. In the midst of a presidential search, there is a story that Colorado State University students should consider. It is a story about a man who sexually assaulted 332 women and got away with it for over 20 years. It is a story of outrage, shock and most of all, pain. It is a story I witnessed as a student at Michigan State University before transferring. It happened at a university just like ours. In May 2018, according to the Chicago Tribune, Michigan State University announced its $500 million dollar settlement to hundreds of women who survived sexual assault by Larry Nassar, a former athletic trainer at the Michigan State and at USA Gymnastics. This revealed a broken community that was further shattered by gross lack of compassion from the administration who was supposed to keep students safe. Former MSU President Lou Anna K. Simon, as well as others at the university, ignored complaints about Nassar for years. They only acted once the scandal was thrust into the national media spotlight. MSU students responded furiously. There was a student protest. Members of an organization called The Roosevelt Institute began calling for structural changes to the Board of Trustees, the University’s governing body. Students began a coalition with the goal of supporting survivors and increasing student representation on campus. The school newspaper, The State News, published an issue with the words, “President Simon, Resign” plastered on the front page. Eventually she did. It is clear that all the pain Nas-
sar caused was worsened by the school’s leadership. According to The State News, MSU’s subsequent interim president, John Engler, also resigned last week. This is after a long stretch of failed leadership in which he did more to hinder survivors than to help them. Although Tony Frank hasn’t disappointed us, the political systems in place at CSU are very similar to those at MSU. This means our university could potentially be vulnerable to the same type of corruption if students don’t pay attention. “It’s important to maintain a certain degree of skepticism and recognition that the interests of students are not always aligned with administrators,” said Walter Hanley, senior at Michigan State and co-chapter head of its division of The Roosevelt Institute. One issue with our Board of Governors at CSU, the same problem as MSU’s Board of Trustees, is the lack of representation for the population that matters most: the students. This is true of our current presidential search processes as well. The search begins with a 16-member advisory committee that will create a pool of applicants from which the BOG will elect a new president. Nancy R. Tuor, the vice chair to the BOG, is also the main chair of the committee. While two separate groups are in charge of the selection process, the groups consist of the same people. Including Tuor, four voting BOG members and one non-voting member are on the committee. This retracts from the checks and balances employed in the search process by using the dual committee system. There is only one student on the Advisory Committee with voting powers: Associated Students of CSU President Tristan Syron. Syron is also the only CSUFort Collins student representative on the BOG, meaning he alone is the voice for over 33,000 students. During the Nassar scandal,
while the administration reacted detrimentally, it was the students that went out of their way to remedy the situation. Their voices emerged powerfully through the media, in ways similar to that of former editors of the CSU publication, The Collegian. In 2007, Collegian editors sprawled the words, “F*CK BUSH” across a page in the opinion section. The decision was controversial, and ultimately led to the formation of Rocky Mountain Student Media, which allowed The Collegian to operate as an associated but separate entity from the University. The students of CSU were able to gain a platform to share their voices without feeling strong pressure from the administration. This outcry against the administration is similar to that of MSU’s The State News. When the story broke, they leaked the issue of the Alumni Magazine covering the Nassar scandal after the administration had forced editors to revise it in their defense, taking out the stories of survivors. In a community that was broken, the students of MSU acted. They did something to try and make their campus a safer and honest place to be. The takeaway from all of this is that students have power. We just need to use it. Especially to monitor our own administration and the interest of the University vs. the students. “Students are one of the most powerful lobbying voices on administration,” Hanley said. “They need to be willing to be a pain in the ass to folks who know that they can wait them out.” Let’s take the same level of passion these MSU students have and apply to to our own campus, and to our own unique issues. Let’s make it known that we stand with them in demanding that our welfare be the first order of business for our administrators. As students, we have an overwhelming influence. Let’s use it.

Editor’s Note: All opinion section content reflects the views of the individual author only and does not represent a stance taken by The Collegian or its editorial board. Our society purposefully puts taxes on things like cigarettes for the sake of our health. Processed meat should be no different. According to Beat Cancer’s website, the evidence that processed meat causes cancer is just as strong as the evidence against tobacco. It is not completely understood exactly how processed meat increases the risk of cancer, but we do know that certain carcinogenic chemicals are released during the curing or cooking process. These chemicals are similar to those found in tobacco. It took some convincing, but once we had conclusive evidence that cigarettes cause cancer, we began taking steps to mitigate their consumption. Taxes on cigarettes and other tobacco products are now implemented. Until recently, high consumption of processed meats was closely related to the development of chronic diseases such as diabetes and cardiovascular disease. In 2015, the World Health Organization issued an epidemiological report stating that processed meats are a causal factor in the development of cancer, specifically colorectal. A meta-analysis of ten different studies found that a 50-gram portion of processed meat eaten daily increases the risk of colorectal cancer by about 18 percent. Currently, about 34,000 deaths are attributed to a diet high in processed meats. There are a lot of potential benefits to taxing processed meat. Less people in the hospital means less of a strain on health
resources. If meat were taxed, it is projected that we could save $20 billion in healthcare costs. Processed meat is not only a burden to your health, but the environment as well. Animal agriculture is the leading cause of carbon pollution, and rightfully so. It takes a ton of time, management and resources to grow and slaughter almost 70 billion land animals a year. Roughly one third of grain production is devoted to growing food for animal agriculture. As beneficial as it could be for our health, economics is still a barrier we have to cross. The tax on cigarettes was detrimental to low-income people because they are more likely to smoke, so the question of how a meat tax would affect them should be addressed. Given that meat makes up a large portion of daily protein intake for the majority of Americans, taxing meat without offering a viable alternative would be unsustainable. This isn’t to say that all meat production should be stopped immediately. For the foreseeable future, there are always going to be people who need meat in their diet for a reason other than because they like it. Ideally, we just want to get to a point where healthier foods are offered at a lower price per calorie than unhealthy foods. If someone wants to smoke cigarettes, we let them because they know the consequences of doing so. The effects of secondhand smoke are more immediate because we know exposure to it can also cause cancer. However, it is widely unknown just how bad processed meat is for our bodies. It’s not about taking away processed meat completely, it’s about making the consequence known. This is not about an attack on a particular lifestyle. It is about reconciling new knowledge with appropriate action like we’ve successfully done with tobacco and cigarettes. Madison Thompson can be reached at letters@collegian.com.

Ansay >> from page 1
transitioned to the Arapahoe Ice Warriors around 8th grade. I was gonna go to juniors but I had offers fall through, luckily I got accepted to CSU and found out they had a club hockey team and they were good.” Ansay first joined the men’s team in 2014 and unlike most players who elect to play junior hockey during or after high school, Ansay was a true freshman when he joined the team. “At that point, I was young because most of the guys play juniors,” Ansay said. “But after my first year on the team I really developed and became a better player.” Ansay would become a leader and a top forward on the team during his playing days, with his best season coming with what everyone believed to be his senior year, scoring 27 points in 39 contests during the 20172018 season. Ansay would soon find out that he had another semester of eligibility remain-
ing in the fall of the 2018-2019 season. “We just kinda stumbled across it and it was a very pleasant surprise,” said Mark Schermerhorn of CSU hockey operations. After playing in the fall, Ansay would end his career Dec. 2 at Pepsi Center in a rivalry game against CU. The Rams would fall 8-3 in the contest with Ansay scoring two goals in the loss. Although Ansay is no longer on the ice and is still adjusting to his new role, he seems to have found a new outlook as a coach. It’s pretty much unheard of in sports for a player to finish his career and immediately be coaching as a member of the same team. Ansay has found a more laid back approach helps when coaching his former teammates. “I found it’s not really my place to yell and get in their face, but I can give critical feedback and advice,” Ansay said. “Now I realize that as a player and a coach you see things a lot differently.” While his career has drawn to a close, Ansay can now reflect on his next step in life, currently

working at Brinkman & Brinkman Construction in Fort Collins as a Project Engineer. As a coach, Ansay is happy with his choice to stay close to the game rather than walk away from it.
“I have friends that ended up walking away from hockey when they stopped playing and they tell me how much they miss it now,” Ansay said. “Even though I’m not playing games
it’s just nice to help out and be at the rink and around the team.” Ryan Loberger can be reached at sports@collegian. com.

Avalanche draft pick Cale Makar could debut in the playoffs By Mike Chambers The Denver Post
In late March or mid-April, Avalanche top-prospect Cale Makar is bound to sign his NHL entry-level contract to conclude his stellar two-year career at the University of Massachusetts. The question is, will Colorado’s 2017 first-round draft pick (fourth overall) make his NHL debut in the regular season or playoffs? Assuming, that is, the Avs, who are clingling to the last wild-card spot, make the playoffs. Makar is tied as college hockey’s second-highest-scoring defenseman (29 points, nine goals) and has helped second-ranked UMass (19-5) build one of the most successful seasons in program history. Makar serves as an alternate captain and is the Minutemen’s second-leading scorer on a team
seemingly destined to make just its second NCAA Tournament appearance, and first since 2007. If UMass advances to its first Frozen Four and the Avs make the playoffs -- and Makar signs immediately with Colorado -he won’t have much time to get acclimated to the professional game before he’s called upon. The Frozen Four is a week later this season than in previous years, placing Makar on course to play in a Stanley Cup Playoff game before making his NHL regular-season debut. “] “What I’m watching on TV, it seems like a team I could hop into right away,” Makar said of the Avs in November. “But at the end of the day, we’ll wait and see when that time comes.” The UMass regular-season finale is March 8 at Connecticut. The Hockey East playoff tournament unfolds the ensuing two weekends before the NCAA Tournament regionals

March 29-31. The Frozen Four at Key Bank Center in Buffalo, N.Y., is April 11-13. The Avalanche’s regular-season finale is April 6 at San Jose. The playoffs will begin April 10 or 11. Makar, 20, is eligible to begin his Avalanche career in the playoffs because he was drafted by the team and is thus automatically on the team’s reserve list at the Feb. 25 NHL trade deadline. Free agents cannot be on a reserve list because they are unaffiliated with all teams. The most recent college player to make his NHL debut in the playoffs and make an impact was Chris Krieder, who went from Boston College to the New York Rangers in 2012. Krieder played in 18 Stanley Cup games before the Rangers lost in the Eastern Conference finals to the New Jersey Devils. Makar could make an immediate impact with the Avs this spring, but he’s happy with his
decision to return to college for a second season and serve as a young leader. “I think it was a great decision to come back, in terms of my development, and not rushing anything,” Makar, an alternate captain, said. “I take great pride in being recognized as one of the key leaders on this team. One of my other sophomore counterparts, Mario Ferraro, also has an A. It’s a big role for us to play but at the end of the day, it was chosen by our team and I’m very humbled to have it on my chest. I think we’ve created a great culture here so far. “And it was kind of a learning curve for me last year and this year it’s not as eye-opening. As for my training, I feel like I’m a relatively good skater already but felt I needed to be more explosive in the D-zone and have that durability in my legs to play equally as well at both sides of the ice.” Makar is one of Colorado’s
two top young right-shot defenseman with offensive gifts. The other, Conor Timmins, who was drafted 32nd in 2017 and signed his entry-level contract with the Avs last spring, has been shut down since July because of persistent concussion-like symptoms. Makar and Timmins were teammates for Canada’s World Junior team a year ago. “I definitely feel for the guy. We’re pretty good friends, obviously from the World Juniors,” Makar said of Timmins. “I was trying to keep in touch with him through camp. You never like to see a guy who’s out for that long, especially with a head injury. I really hope he comes back soon because obviously he’s a big part of their future and I really like playing with him as well.” Content pulled from Tribune News Service.

MEN’S BASKETBALL
Guard Hyron Edwards progresses on the path of potential By Eddie Herz @Eddie_Herz
Untapped potential does not stay fresh forever. For college athletes, potential expires in only a few years more often than not. Colorado State redshirt junior guard Hyron Edwards was seen as a player likely to succeed at the collegiate level during his prep years at East Chicago Central High School. The guard first garnered national attention during his junior year of high school when he was named a member of the Indiana Junior All-Star Team. A dominant senior season in which Edwards led East Chicago to the top rank in the state upon averaging 24 points per game increased the brightness of the national spotlight. Highly-touted, Edwards was listed as a four-star, top100 recruit in the 2015 incoming freshmen class. All indicators pointed to an easy path connecting Edwards from high school basketball to contributing for an elite program. But Edwards’ skills and possible college stardom would be delayed for quite some time. Instead of accepting scholarships to play for major Division 1 programs such as Illinois, Indiana and Purdue, Edwards took the junior college route. After thriving for two seasons at Trinity Valley Community College, the guard landed at Texas Tech University to get his career underway. Edwards’ stay with the Red Raiders didn’t last long. He never played a game for Texas Tech in his one semester as a member of the program before transferring to CSU. Though the Indiana native’s ability to contribute for a Division 1 program stayed stagnant for longer than initially anticipated, Edwards didn’t miss his window. Now, as a member of the Rams, the redshirt junior is finally starting to fill his intended role as a difference-maker on both ends of the court. While Edwards is finally seeing his dreams come to fruition, doing so this season wasn’t comfortable from the start. Along with having not played a game for two full seasons, Edwards did not become eligible to compete until CSU’s 11th game of the season. Coupled with an adjustment period, Edwards had to find his identity on a team in which roles for the season had already begun to form. “Everybody looking from the outside in thought that

I was supposed to score like 20 points in the first game back,” Edwards said. “But it is a process,—and I am still going through that process—of me getting into a rhythm and getting my wind back. That is the hardest thing, just getting that feeling back on the court.” By no means did Head Coach Niko Medved anticipate Edwards’ transition being painless. Even for a speedy guard like Edwards, growing pains from the cardio associated with live-game action are normal. No matter how much a player practices, one must play games to start improving. With that idea in mind, Medved had some wise words for his guard before he got back on the court in December. “I tried to tell him to have confidence, but it isn’t just going to happen overnight,” Medved said. “You don’t miss all that time and then get right into it. And I think you started to see that as a couple more games went by. He’s gotten more and more comfortable. So it’s having that belief in yourself, but also realizing it is going to take a little time.” As Medved mentioned, Ed-
wards has begun to get back into the swing of things. In his first six games played, the redshirt junior averaged 4.7 points per game on 28 percent shooting from the floor. Over CSU’s last five games, Edwards
“It is a process,—and I am still going through that process—of me getting into a rhythm and getting my wind back. That is the hardest thing, just getting that feeling back on the court.” HYRON EDWARDS CSU GUARD
has performed significantly better. The guard has averaged 10.6 points per game over that span, including a 20-point outing against New Mexico Jan. 12, as well as a career-high seven rebounds against Fresno State last Saturday. Speaking of Edwards’
shooting, the guard is converting shots at a much higher rate as of late. Edwards is shooting 43 percent from the floor over the current stretch. Edwards’ success is a result of progression and adjustment, closer to the point when he will fully-exercise his potential. “I feel great out there now,” Edwards said. “The last couple of conference games I’ve been playing good. My wind has been good.” Edwards coming into his own and starting to contribute in a multitude of ways has not surprised his teammates. After all, CSU players have been practicing with the guard for months. The Rams are most likely feeling a sense of relief that, not only is Edwards using his speed to run laps around them at practice, but he is finally doing so against the opposition as well. “I would say that when he was in practice, he was doing everything right,” redshirt senior guard J.D. Paige said. “So, instantly we knew that he was going to be a key part to what we are trying to do ... it has been great having him back.
He is a guy that can get his own shot off, but also create plays for others. He is very fast so when he gets the ball we just have to keep up with him and run with him because he’ll find us.” A hand full of rebounds and assists per game is more than enough for a player to be considered a valuable asset. But it is worth noting Edwards is still trudging along the path of his potential. By no means is the guard content with his current standpoint. With realistic expectations to keep improving, Edwards’ value to the team appreciates. When the day comes in which the guard is a real force, playing to the best of his abilities, the success of CSU basketball will undoubtedly be elevated. “He is a kid who has talent and is starting to feel more and more comfortable within his role and within our schemes on both ends of the floor,” Medved said. “He has been a huge piece to us playing a lot better here as conference has started … I think he is really finding a way to have a big impact for us.” Eddie Herz can be reached at sports@collegian.com.

MUSIC
Weezer releases cover album with ‘80s classics By Maddie Wright @maddierwright
For those wondering what the Los Angeles-based rock group Weezer has been up to lately, there’s a new project from the band they can tune into. Most people know about Weezer, the alternative rock group from the ‘90s who created famous songs like “Island in the Sun” and “Say It Ain’t So.” They also released an album last year titled “Pacific Daydream” that did alright, reaching the 23rd spot on Billboard and the third spot on the alternative albums chart. A little after this album was
released, a Twitter user by the handle @WeezerAfrica started a social media campaign to get the band to cover Toto’s “Africa.” In May 2018, dreams came true when Weezer officially covered the song using @WeezerAfrica’s tweet as the single’s art cover. Months after this cover was released, the band dropped a surprise album called “Weezer,” also known as the “Teal Album,” Jan. 24. The record starts out with their cover of Africa, but the band also delves into nine other covers. The album itself has nostalgic undertones, especially nostalgia for the ‘80s. “Everybody Wants to Rule the World” originally by Tears for Fears epitomizes the opening credits of a cheesy high school movie. The standout hit that is making listeners stop in their tracks is the cover of TLC’s R&B pop fusion “No Scrubs.” Hearing the intro notes as it came on for the first time, I could not believe my ears. It may not fit well
with the album that was covering primarily ‘80s rock songs, but it became easily my favorite song on the album. The cover of Michael Jackson’s “Billie Jean” was definitely a song the album could have gone without. Maybe I just think it’s an overplayed song. Maybe I am not as in love with mainstream Jackson music as much as Weezer. But it was a weak way to start wrapping up the album.
“The album itself has nostalgic undertones, especially nostalgia for the ‘80s.” The same goes for the very last song, “Stand By Me” by Ben E. King. The original song is beautifully iconic, but Weezer’s version is boring, especially for a song that has been covered by several other groups in differ-
ent ways. If you are looking for a cover of this soul-filled song that also has some punk undertones, I recommend other California-based punk band Pennywise’s cover. But the song that started it all? It is kind of a bop. “Africa” rose in popularity recently because people realized the track’s iconic status. Weezer only fanned the flames and blessed the rains with their version of the song. Include a cameo of Weird Al Yankovic in the music video, and it is easy to see why it became the band’s first song in the Hot 100 since 2009. Another iconic ‘80s song on this album is “Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)” originally by Eurythmics. This is one of the few songs on the album that I would argue is better than the original. Rivers Cuomo’s deeper vocals than that of Eurythmics’ Annie Lennox stand out in a way that had me jamming. The last song to note is actually a ‘60s song that most casual
listeners will recognize: “Happy Together” by The Turtles. Weezer halftimes the chorus of the song providing a more eerie sound that would fit in well on the “Donnie Darko” soundtrack. Should you listen to it? Surprisingly, yes. Look, I did not particularly want to like this album, but I was taken aback multiple times by songs that both recreated what made these songs originally great while adding unique twists. It is a well-done album full of fun nostalgia you can already sing along to. Simply put, it is fun. A lot of critics did not like this album and I can understand why; it’s a little uninspired and lacks emotional substance. But Weezer did not create this album for them; it is for the fans, like @WeezerAfrica. Maddie Wright can be reached at entertainment@ collegian.com.

Sacred Owl Wellness center to open new doors in coming months By Walker Discoe @walkerdiscoe
Health, wellness and fitness are all reasons why people move to Colorado. Colorado is ranked as one of the 10 healthiest states according to CBS news, and Coloradoans generally cultivate a culture of exercise and self-care. Sacred Owl Wellness, a spa and wellness center in Fort Collins specializing in holistic and neuropathic approaches to health, helps to drive that culture forward.
“Ultimately, we want to get to a spot where it’s not just a spa, and it’s not just a wellness center. We want Sacred Owl to be a place where you come in, and it’s a onestop-shop for wellness.” SAMANTHA ODELL FOUNDER OF SACRED OWL WELLNESS
According to their website, Sacred Owl Wellness is “(providing) a comforting yet stimulating atmosphere in which you will be able to relax both your body and mind, reconnecting your daily life to its
higher purpose.” Samantha Rines Odell, a holistic health practitioner, founded the business in 2018 in the hopes of bringing a deeper understanding of holistic and natural health practices to Fort Collins. “We’re here to help people feel better,” Odell said. “We believe that wellness is a balance between every aspect in anyone’s life and that our clients aren’t just a collection of body systems.” Sacred Owl offers a variety of services, including spa and clinical services, massage, aromatherapy, yoga and energy healing. “Many of our clients come in for a variety of our practices, not just a single thing,” Odell said. “Sure, there are the people who come in for a massage because they got a gift card… but it’s not uncommon to have a client who uses all of our services.” Sacred Owl plans on moving into their new space in late February of this year. Currently located along College Avenue in the White Magnolia building, their new offices will be north of Whole Foods. Odell said she hopes the space will be an addition to an area of Fort Collins that will become a new hub for health and wellness. “In our new space, we’re going to be neighbors with a few other wellness-related busi-

nesses,” Odell said. “There’s a chiropractor who also practices acupuncture, a laser tattoo and a hair removal salon and, of course, we’re going to be moving in as well.” Sacred Owl will host a grand opening to their new building March 30 in an event that includes other nearby business, although dates are still tentative. Odell has high hopes for her business, the new wellness
centered shopping area and the culture of natural wellness in Fort Collins.
FOR MORE INFORMATION ■ Sacred Owl offers an ongoing 20
percent discount for faculty and students at both Front Range Community College and Colorado State University.
“Ultimately, we want to get to a spot where it’s not just a spa, and it’s not just a wellness center,” Odell said. “We want Sacred Owl to be a place where you come in, and it’s a onestop-shop for wellness.” Walker Discoe can be reached at entertainment@ collegian.com.

Brewmaster who saw Goose Island through growth, challenges leaves By Josh Noel Chicago Tribune
Goose Island Beer Co. is on the hunt for just the fifth brewmaster in its 31-year history after the departure last week of Jared Jankoski. Jankoski, who helped steer Goose Island through the growth and tumult that come with being Anheuser-Busch’s lead craft beer brand, will become brewmaster at Octopi Brewing, near Madison, Wis., where Jankoski grew up. Goose Island is not ready to announce its next brewmaster, brewery president Todd Ahsmann said. “Jared is a great brewer and we’ll forever be grateful for the things he did at Goose Island,” Ahsmann said. “We have a young, hungry crew of talented brewers right now—probably the deepest bench we’ve ever had—and a lot of that can be attributed to the teachings of Jared.” Jankoski said the move from one of the most recognizable brands in craft beer to a lesser-known operation came down to a lifestyle change. He described himself as a fan of the outdoors who was spending too much time grinding through Chicago traffic. “I’m not really a city person at the end of the day,” Jankoski said. “I love Goose. Goose is an incredible place. I had a great deal of pride and gratitude for my position there. But I’ve been going back and forth on this situation for a while and wondering what was next.” Goose Island brewmasters attain a bit of rock star status if for no other reason than having their names on bottles of the brewery’s iconic Bourbon County beers. At times, Jankoski said, he was baffled at the attention he would receive. “I had people come up to me and couldn’t tell if they were being

(jerks) or really excited to meet a guy who made beer,” he said. “It was so drastic, it would be like, ‘Are you kidding me?’ My standard answer—and it was true—was that it was a team effort.” Jankoski joined Goose Island as head brewer in 2012 after seven years at New Glarus Brewing, which is also near Madison. In 2015, Jankoski became Goose Island’s third brewmaster since the launch of its Fulton Street production brewery in 1995, and just its fourth ever. Greg Hall, son of Goose Island founder John Hall, held the job until the brewery was sold to Anheuser-Busch in 2011. Brett Porter, who remains with Anheuser-Busch, held the job from 2011 to 2015. In Goose Island’s earliest days, when just a Clybourn Avenue brewpub, the brewery was led for three years by Victor Ecimovich III, who is now an Ohio-based industry consultant. Under Anheuser-Busch ownership, Goose Island has become one of the biggest craft beer brands in the world, leading to intense scrutiny during Jankoski’s reign. Among the most difficult periods was the development of off flavors in Bourbon County beers in 2015, which led to two recalls the following year. Jankoski became both the face and voice of the brewery during the recalls. Being part of Anheuser-Busch led to a deep well of resources, but was also a case of “two drastically different worlds coming together,” Jankoski said. Among the greatest challenges has been the process known as “cross brewing”—replicating beers pioneered by Goose Island in Chicago on far-larger Anheuser-Busch equipment at breweries around the nation. Such brands include Goose Island IPA, 312 Urban Wheat Ale
and two recent introductions, Next Coast IPA and Natural Villain lager, plus many seasonal releases. “I always took the time to try and understand the people—the smart, passionate, good people— from the A-B side and learn from them while, as humbly as I could, educating them about how we looked at beer,” Jankoski said. “It was a challenge, but it was really fascinating and interesting. And at the end of the day, I hope I played a meaningful role to help make better beer in the big breweries and have everyone coming away thinking we’ve made some progress over the years.” Octopi Brewing was launched in 2015 by Isaac Showaki, who previously co-founded 5 Rabbit Cerveceria in suburban Chicago. (He left the company amid turmoil in 2013.) Octopi is largely a contract brewery, but has also had success with its own Untitled Art brand—a joint venture with the founder of Madison’s Funk Factory Geuzeria—which makes mostly trendy styles such as hazy IPA and pastry stout, often in collaboration with high-profile breweries. Octopi is in the midst of a $10 million expansion that will boost capacity from 40,000 barrels of annual beer production to 100,000 barrels—which is more than Goose Island brews in Chicago. Jankoski will have a hand in designing the project, which is scheduled to be finished by summer. “I’ll get to be a lot more handson and technically active, whereas at Goose Island there’s more bureaucracy and administration and layers,” he said. “I’ll be a little closer to the beer itself. I look forward to that.” Content pulled from Tribune News Service.
