The Women of Lockerbie provide counsel for Hayden Spaeth (right) as he copes with his wife’s obsessive search for her lost son.
They say love conquers all, but for Theatre NDSU’s latest production, love is just enough to get nine characters through a night of reliving the past before an uncertain future. “The Women of Lockerbie,” based on the aftermath of the bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 in 1988, tells its audiences of how one simple act can heal a world of wounds. Over 270 people in the air and on the ground lost their lives when a terrorist bomb exploded aboard the plane, and with the world looking on, seven years after the crash, the titular women of Lockerbie come together to fight the American government for possession of the clothes found in the wreckage. Why? For an ultimate act of kindness. The women of Lockerbie, led by the stoic Olive Allison (senior Clare Geinert, right at home in this role), throw red tape to the wind, and hound the hardhearted official (freshman Alex Kleven) sent to wrap up the American end of the investigation by burning the evidence bags containing thousands of scraps of clothes.

Afghan Man Teams with NDSU Pink House, Bringing ‘Hope’ to Widows and Orphans Nonprofit raises money for 20 Afghan families in Kabul STORY BY BENJAMIN NORMAN & PHOTO BY GABBY HARTZE
He has seen his home country in ruins. “When I entered Afghanistan in 2001, the streets were smelling like death,” the founder of Hope for Afghanistan said about life in Kabul. He wished to not have his name listed in the story because he is seeking asylum in the U.S. “There was no life,” he said. People missing limbs roamed tattered cities alongside feral dogs, he said. The streets were bombed and houses, destroyed. While the scene today is dramatically better in Afghanistan than it was a decade ago, he said there is still work to do. Along with being an M-State student, he is the CEO of Hope For Afghanistan, a nonprofit that focuses its work on serving widows and orphans in Kabul. They do so by helping women find independence and deterring trafficking of vulnerable Afghanis. The organization has a team based in Afghanistan and is a registered nonprofit in Fargo. HFA partnered with North Dakota State’s Pink House the past two weeks for Pink House’s annual Christmas charity fundraiser. “We chose HFA because as an organization, we value charities that focus on preventing human trafficking,” Beth Lindahl, a Pink House staff member, said.
Widows and orphans
Millions of widows live in Afghanistan, with over 60,000 living in Kabul alone, Lindahl said. “Most of the widows have four to five

By becoming independent, slavery and human trafficking among widows and orphans hopefully will become less common, he said. “Reality is that kids working on the street are in danger of being sexually abused and also recruited for terrorism,” Lindahl, who in her travels has seen human trafficking firsthand, said, “and HFA also doesn’t want mothers in prostitution either to feed their children.” In Afghanistan, women are not equipped with the tools to succeed either, he said, which is what the opposition wants. After the Taliban was removed from power, he said he helped other organizations build libraries and schools in Afghanistan, defying opposition for about nine years. “By building schools, a group of people (did not) agree (with that),” he said. “They wanted to keep the slavery in Afghanistan of our women and our youth.”

children,” she continued. The founder said HFA focuses on teaching those in need self-sustainment strategies. “These Afghan widows and children are among the poorest of the poor in the world,” Lindahl said. “Even the poor in the US are only relatively poor … They are not in the same category of extreme poor (as Afghans

Founded in 2012, HFA uses donated money to buy, among other items, chickens for its selected families. Anyone can donate $7 to buy a chicken for a family, he said. Lindahl agreed. She said the smaller amount is more feasible for students, and they can be sure their donation goes to those in need. “Because it is (a smaller nonprofit), over 90 percent of the funds go directly to the families,” Lindahl said of HFA. “ … Students really don’t have a lot of money BRINGING “HOPE” | PAGE 3

A Big Fracking Problem? New York Times article raises questions; Gov. Dalrymple defends policies Camille Forlano Staff Writer
A two-part series published last month by the New York Times offered an unsettling look into the effects of fracking in North Dakota and the politics in play with the industry. Energy sustainability and fracking will be discussed by author and speaker Winona LaDuke at 7 p.m. Monday in the Great Plains Ballroom as she discusses topics related to North Dakota. LaDuke, director of the Native American-led environmental organization Honor the Earth, will present “Thinking
for the Seventh Generation: Fracking, Water and Food in North Dakota and the Northland.” The presentation coincides with the New York Times article, particularly focusing on fracking. Hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, is the process of drilling for natural gas and oil underneath the ground. The dense layers of rock and shale are cracked open by blasting water, sand and chemicals deep underground creating fissures that allow the oil to flow into horizontal pipes, some of them thousands of feet long. The ethics and politics of this process was put under scrutiny in the article. From 2006 through August 2014, the New York Times article said Continental Resources, one of North Dakota’s largest producer of oil, reported the most spills and environmental incidents in in the state. Continental Resources reported 937 spills during this period, equating to 1.6
million gallons of oil, the article said. Since 2006, the company has paid the Industrial Commission $20,000 out of $222,000 in assessed fines, the article said. The Industrial Commission, which regulates the drilling and production of oil and gas in the state, is comprised of the governor, attorney general and agriculture commissioner. Gov. Jack Dalrymple defended himself against the New York Times article, The Forum reported. He said he and the state were depicted unfairly. The governor said he supports the current regulation system, saying that fines can be forgiven if regulators are satisfied with tests, and that the fines are simply used as leverage to force companies to ensure future compliance He added that in light of the criticism, members of the Industrial Commission, including himself, could revisit the lax
approach. Overall, the article said, more than 18.4 million gallons of oil and chemicals have spilled, leaked or misted into the air, soil and waters of North Dakota from 2006 through early October 2014. Incidents are occurring more frequently, too. One environmental incident for every 11 wells in 2006 became one for every six last year, the article said. LaDuke has written extensively on the environmental and economic issues brought up by the article. She holds a degree from Harvard University, a masters degree in rural development from Antioch College and performed graduate work at Massachusetts Institute of Technology. NDSU students are encouraged to join the event and learn more about these topics that are currently affecting North Dakota.

Geoff Zehnacker describes the importance of service dogs with Luke by his side.
U.S. Marine Corps Veteran Talks Importance of Service Dogs Zehnacker’s dog, Luke, helped him recover from traumatic brain injury Erin Anderson Staff Writer
Veterans benefit from service dogs after they have served in the military. The service dogs help them recover faster and live a normal life.
North Dakota State hosted a presentation by Operation Iraqi Freedom veteran Geoff Zehnacker and his service dog, Luke. Zehnacker spoke Wednesday in the Memorial Union Room of Nations. He is a U.S. Marine Corps Veteran and Purple Heart recipient. He served from 1996-2010; at that time, he retired from the military due to the diagnosis of a traumatic brain injury. He received his service dog, Luke, in 2010, after the injury. Zehnacker spoke about the impact of matching service dogs with veterans and the
importance of it. “I always knew that service dogs were important,” NDSU student Nicci Roedel said. “But after listening to Geoff speak, it really opened up my eyes about just how important they are to each other and the type of bond they form.” Zehnacker has held a presidency position in the nonprofit organization that matches service dogs with needs, Patriot Assistance Dogs. Patriot Assistance Dogs and Zehnacker spoke on behalf of the NDSU Animal Assisted Therapy Speaker Series along with

The second annual THON ND event will be from 4 p.m. to midnight Saturday in the Great Plains Ballroom in the Memorial Union at North Dakota State.

HFA raises money for 20 families in Kabul until they are self-sufficient. Once they can make it on their own, he said, a new family is chosen. “We can help people,” he said. “We can empower people with very little.” Informing the public is important, too. “We have a lot of misunderstanding in both countries,” he said. In America, the Taliban is often the first thing to mind when Afghanistan is brought up in conversation.

Visiting Oxford’s city of students, scholars STORY & PHOTO BY LINDA NORLAND
The Radcliffe Camera acts as a beautiful study space for students.
Few cities have such a prestigious ring to their name as Oxford. With 39 colleges making up the famous Oxford University, this city is one of the most famous collegiate towns in the world. Countless scientists, politicians, writers and artists have lived and studied there — Albert Einstein, Margaret Thatcher, J. R. R. Tolkien and even Bill Clinton. Oxford has not only been home to reallife luminaries but many fictional ones, as well. The popular crime series “Inspector Morse” was based there, and several locations served as Hogwarts settings in the Harry Potter movies. The infirmary for Hogwarts was set up in The Divinity School, a magnificent room in the Bodleian Library. The crown jewel of Oxford’s libraries,
the Bodleian, is one of the oldest in Europe. It has a collection of over 11 million books, falling just short of the British Library in London. However, its collection grows every day, as the library is entitled to a free copy of every written work published in the U.K. On the guided tour, our chaperone told us that the last time he checked the library was receiving about 6,000 items every week. No visit to Oxford is complete without a tour of this magnificent temple to books. Luckily, I visited on a Sunday, when the rooms normally full of scholars are open to the public. I also got a peek inside the Radcliffe Camera, an enchanting circular library that is used more for study space than book storage. Next door to “the Bod” is the small but
enlightening Museum of the History of Science, the oldest surviving museum. It has an extensive collection of astronomical instruments, including possibly the only spherical astrolabe in the world. Other important artifacts there include a chalkboard with Einstein’s handwriting, the photography kits of Lewis Carroll and Lawrence of Arabia. Plus, like many museums in the U.K., it is free to enter. Another exciting museum in Oxford is the Ashmolean just down the road. It is also free (although a donation is encouraged), and has several levels with exhibits on everything from Ancient Egypt to modern art. Their collection includes paintings by Monet, Manet and Van Gogh, as well as a Stradivarius violin.
Some of the major colleges to visit include Christ Church, the alma mater of countless famous figures, and another Harry Potter film location; Magdalen, pronounced “Mawdlen;” Merton, potentially the oldest college (a debatable subject) and Trinity. However, there are many colleges scattered around the city, some of which may or may not be open to the public. Despite its famous history and fabulous architecture, Oxford is a university town at heart. Students navigate the crowded streets on bikes and study in local cafes. And if you are a young person with a backpack, well — who is to say you are not a student there, too?

Five essentials to keep your closet and wardrobe in order STORY & PHOTOS BY AMBER ZOLONDEK
Let’s be real here. Clothes shopping can either be your favorite pastime or the bane of your existence. But when the going’s good, it’s hard to stop. Sixty-percent off denim? $24.99 for a pair of heels? That sweater can’t be marked down to ten dollars. Yet, we impulsively buy things we like or because it’s on sale or worse: the trending look of the season that is sadly unflattering on any body type. So, how do you tame the beast that is your closet once you’ve hit the mall a little too much over Thanksgiving break? Try minimizing. A simple list of essentials will help you create a trustworthy database of pieces and outfits that are not only great goto’s but flattering and chic at the same time. Let’s start with denim. Everyone feels first-rate in a nice pair of form-fitting jeans. I’ve worked in retail long enough to know all it takes is some minor convincing to get someone into jeans before they’re hooked. For men and women, Gap is a great place to find denim of all washes and cuts for a decent price. A few other suggestions would be American Eagle and Buckle. Try out Gordman’s if you’re keeping budget and brand name in mind. Secondly, a crisp, white button-down shirt is a certain backup plan if you’re running short of ideas to look fresh or put-
together. Whether it’s on a man or woman, a white blouse or button-down can be topped off with a tie or a scarf and provides opportunities to layer or alternate between. My next suggestion could be layered on top of said button-down. A tailored blazer can pull together just about any outfit. Over a dress, blouse, leggings, or skirts – a blazer is a professional detail that can wrap up the look you’re trying to achieve. For some ideas of where to grab a tailored blazer you can find both men’s and women’s separates at Macy’s and Express. An essential in this state, and especially during the winter season, is a pair of boots. While some look for serious winter boots, the alternative can be leather, suede or other materials – heels optional. Tuck in your denim, tights, or leggings into boot socks and you’ll be strutting around campus with warm feet and stylish shoes. The excess of snow and ice make flats and heels impractical and quite frankly, dangerous. Invest in a trustworthy pair of boots at Zappos, DSW or even Target. Your feet will thank you. Lastly: Accessorize, accessorize, accessorize. It sounds menial, but that’s because it is. Jewelry, scarves and handbags can be little details, but they make a big difference. You wouldn’t show up to a formal dinner for work with a Kate Spade dress on
and absent of earrings or a necklace, would you? Stores like Forever 21, local boutiques like Unglued and Zandbrōz or Charming Charlie’s have accessories stacked on top of each other. To be honest, it can get overwhelming, so here are a few ideas of what to look for primarily: When it comes to jewelry, try and find something that either comes as a set or matches metals. A brushed nickel or brass might coincide well with outfits that need either gold or silver. Bracelets or rings are a dime a dozen and can be found in multiple packs. However, invest in a watch. Those are worth your time and money, (pun intended). The same goes for a handbag. Find one that can fit either your computer, tablet, planner or whatever you may need on a daily basis and pick it out in a neutral color such as tan, black or gray. While this list might be overwhelming or saddening to know you may have some outdated numbers in your closet waiting to be donated, just remember that less is more and doing this can help you appreciate what you have and utilize what fits you and makes you feel your best.

Accessories are always a way to spruce up an outfit, sometimes it’s worth it to splurge, sometimes it’s better to save.
Fall and winter require some heavy duty footwear, but that doesn’t always mean it can’t be chic.

OUTDOOR OUTLOOK: Ice Fishing Ben Koenig
Contributing Writer
Living in Fargo does not provide many fishing options in the immediate area. However, for those willing to take an hour drive or so, there are many more opportunities that open up. Heading further into North Dakota, a close option would be Lake Ashtabula. Ashtabula is a good-sized lake with many smaller bodies of water surrounding it. If anglers are heading to North Dakota, they should make the extra effort and head to Devils Lake. Devils Lake is well known for its walleye and large perch.

Once a lake has been selected and a map prepared, the most challenging step is next — finding the fish. Once again, I turn to technology to help locate fish faster. Drilling a series of holes upon arriving at a location, I then check a few holes with my Humminbird Fish locator to examine the depth as well as fish.

This also takes patience, just because there are not fish there at that initial moment does not mean they will not be there later. Watching for a few minutes and then moving to the next hole will give fish time to be moving through. That is why a series of hole are helpful, so that they can be

a place to fish. The simplest way to obtain a lake map is to go to the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources website and click on the “LakeFinder” link. This allows the user to search for any lake in Minnesota and provides the user with contour maps. These maps will also list the location of the public access. Print out the map and the fisher now has knowledge of what the lake looks like beneath the ice. A more sophisticated and accurate approach would be using a form of GPS help to show the angler exactly where they are on the lake map. The simplest way to achieve this is to find a lake map application for

This large body of water provides many areas to fish effectively. On the Minnesota side, one only needs to travel to anywhere from Detroit Lakes to Fergus Falls to find numerous lakes. With so many options, picking a new lake can be a task in itself. Besides picking up tips from friends or travelers, if the angler wants to explore a new body of water, looking at a lake map is a useful tool. Seeing the contours available can make a decision to head to a new lake easier, especially if it is similar to a lake that the angler is more familiar with. Having a lake map also is useful when actually going to the lake and finding

It’s a great place to visit, whether you’re dropping dough on a meal, seeing a show or shopping. Downtown Fargo’s a place to be and see, and it’s made humongous strides in as little as the last two years in terms of accessibility and offerings. And while many people can’t say enough good things about downtown Fargo, I’d like to file a complaint. It may ruffle some feathers for people to read that I question just how historic some of the downtown district’s buildings claim to be. It’s great to call yourself historic. That implies age! That implies experience! “Something magnificent happened here!” Certainly there are several buildings in downtown Fargo that truly are historic (looking at you, Gardner Hotel). But there are many others that are not. Where do we draw the line between historic and really old? How can buildings like the Loretta and the Ford claim to be historic? Surely there’s criteria, especially for a part of Fargo that has seen a lot of growth and a major renaissance in the past decade. If a building says it’s historic, I want to see some proof, a plaque somewhere or a sign saying “Teddy Roosevelt blew his nose on this spot in 1902.” That’s historic fer sher, especially in North Dakota. The Ford Building on Broadway in downtown Fargo claims to be historic due the former automobile factory that used to call it home from 1915 to 1956. Since then, the Ford’s been bought and sold a few times and renovated in 2006, and is now home to
a furniture store and nail salon, among other merchants. OK, so you’re historic because of an old car factory, eh, Ford Building? That don’t impress me much. It’s not historic that the Ford Building used to be an auto plant. Just like how the Loretta Building is not historic for being home to billions of businesses in the past century. Sure, I understand how the Loretta can come across as historic, what with all the history it has no doubt seen on Broadway, but has any notable history played out inside the structure? My research says no. Loretta’s been home to art galleries, furniture stores, bars and restaurants since 1908, and it saw a major renovation in 2013. With that, I have to ask another question. When you renovate an old building, resurfacing and redesigning and fixing it up, are you taking away whatever historic aspects of its architecture that may exist? I’ve visited the Loretta Building. Many times. It looks brand-spankin’ new, so I have to ask, just how historic can the Loretta Building be now, now that it’s been renovated and Roosevelt apparently never blew his nose in the lobby? I can easily see how buildings like Loretta and Ford can be confused for being historic, but age does not imply this adjective. Heck, I can say my 99-year-old great-grandmother was historic, but she never fought in World War I, even though she lived during the time. So, downtown Fargo businesses, I challenge thee to see if your premises are truly historic. Did a king spend the night in an upstairs apartment? Was Marilyn Monroe’s dress upset by a subway grate right outside the front door? I’ll reiterate, did Roosevelt blow his nose there? If none of these or anything else of note happened, sorry, you’re not historic. You’re just old.
The “historic” Ford Building on Broadway claims its historicism stems from its origin as a former automobile factory for 40 years.
The Loretta Buiding, built in 1908, claims to be historic, yet lacks any momentous or memorable events in its history. Did Teddy Roosevelt blow his nose there? No. Not historic (in North Dakota).
Mirror Lures Harsh Self-Criticism What happened when I threw out my full-length mirror Amber Zolondek Staff Writer
Studying apparel and seeing pictures of flawless models on every magazine, blog and ad in your day can really create this sense of reality and its hyper-sense of perfection and obsession with body image. However, as I’ve continued through my degree and schooling, I’ve come to the realization that all the while I’m sitting here and thinking, “Wow, she looks stunning,” a model may be at home, critiquing herself
in front of her mirror with the questioning glances to spots of concern or criticism. In high school, girls starving themselves along with bingeing and purging were everywhere. I didn’t realize it until I would bring it up in short until their surprised faces and hushed whispers would admit to me that they too have been limiting their calories or using extreme measures to lose weight or keep it off. As I would go home and consider my own body in its reflection, I noticed part of the enabler. My full-length mirror. Silly, at first, to think about it. But in reality, it was the way I looked at it and used it to degrade myself and physical stature. According to dosomething.org, 58 percent of college-aged girls feel pressured to lose some sort of weight. And on top of that, studies have been led to show that the more reality television a female tends to watch, the higher her chances of thinking body image is important are.
So, why is it that we feel the shape of our bodies are so crucial and important? It’s understandable that you look and feel your best when eating a balanced diet and exercise, of course. But when anyone, including myself, notices a bit of weight or some reverse toning going on, it’s easy to get carried away with the carrot sticks and excessive cardio. Our cultural messages are misleading and disturbing to the healthy mind, especially when the look we are aiming for is unattainable or downright unrealistic. Photoshop has become a prevalent skill in high school and college graduates everywhere, and yet, we forget its ability to completely change a look and make it appear flawless when we’re paging through magazines. Struggling with your own reflection leads to depression, anxiety and the possibility of developing an eating disorder. According to the National Association of
Anorexia Nervosa and Associated Disorders, 8 million or more people in the United States have an eating disorder, 90 percent of whom are women. Even though I am still reading my magazines, my blogs and still watching whatever I wanted on my television, I threw out my mirror. I still have my bathroom mirror of course, but the full-length mirror allowed for me to sit in front of it and critique and rip apart my body and its flaws. Even though it was only a piece of reflective glass, it made me perceive myself in a distorted light. I decided that if I took away what’s causing me to do so, I’d eliminate an element of the problem. What seemed as an issue that I couldn’t seem to get around, I had to try and create a solution. Perhaps by understanding that you don’t always have to eliminate something that seems like the major issue, it doesn’t always have to be the eradication of an entirety.
Principles, Conduct and Value: A Clarification and a Response A clarification and a response Joshua Majeski
Contributing Writer
A few weeks ago, I wrote an article about how I believe faith in God is necessary for having a justified belief in an objective morality. The response that was published was partly, I believe, due to a misunderstanding of my use of an ambiguous word I failed to clarify well, but it also posed arguments against the claims I made, which I will attempt to address. First, I would like to clarify my use of the word morality. My argument, which I did not distinctly state well, is that belief in God is necessary to support the existence of an objective morality. That is an eternal, unchanging system
of principles discerning what is right and wrong, not the quality of adhering to what is right. I also believe that for human life to have inherent value is also reliant on the existence of God. While we may all agree that human life is precious and has inherent value, we cannot justify that it is true by saying that it is obvious so therefore it is true. We can try and find this value through secular and naturalistic means, or we can try and find it in the spiritual and that which is outside and above us. I don’t believe that we can find a valid explanation for this value without God. I believe in order for us to explain our existence without God we can only consider ourselves great accidents, the working of great improbabilities and our value lies in that we are so unlikely we are miracles of the natural world, something functional and ordered from mere chance. We share our improbability of existing
with all animals, and we can only credit ourselves as of greater value by our selfawareness and level of thought. But this is flawed as a measure of value because this measure cannot give value to those who are too young to have this level of thought. We already terminate the lives of the unborn; if we use the above as a measure of what human life is, what should prevent us from terminating infants for the same reasons provided they have not yet developed this level of thought that we believe would make it human. Or what prevents us from removing the value of humans from the severely mentally ill. This is why science or reason can’t tell us what is right or wrong and can’t be what gives humans value. It is subject to interpretation and cannot prevent itself from being redefined and bent to suit the actors’ preferences. This is where survival of the fittest comes in. Where science or reason is used to
discern what is right and wrong, whoever is in power and has authority can judge what is valid justification for determining what is morally right. Certainly this problem is not unique to the use of science and reason in discerning what is morally right and wrong. There are examples of the words of the Bible being used to justify hatred and violence, but my argument is that what is moral is determined by God, not people’s biased inferences facts. The Bible also tells and demonstrates to us that while God is just, He is also merciful and loving and when the Bible is misinterpreted to justify this violence and hatred, the results do not reflect this love. Even when it is not adhered to, what God has determined as right and wrong does not change and so it is not vulnerable to being swayed by people’s bias. If we were to accept what science or reason produces we would not be finding CONDUCT AND VALUE | PAGE 7

Why Geeks Make Good Significant Others You may find it surprising Caleb Werness Opinion Editor
Media tries to give the impression a sexy supermodel is someone you should want as your significant other. Like nothing is better than strutting around with this gorgeous companion as your trophy of sorts. But anyone whose been in a relationship should know there is more to a significant other than looks alone. It is important to find someone who you enjoy being with and can be fun. Look no further than your average geek.
Stereotypes have portrayed geeks as quite awkward and typical unhygienic creatures who have an aversion to sunlight. This is not the case, usually. There are several reasons why a geek may just be the type of significant other you are looking for.
Exhibit A. Geeks are very passionate people
The standard tell of a geek is their collection of various pop culture or niche paraphernalia. Often times this is pretty easily identifiable such as a Legend of Zelda shirt or a TARDIS on their keychains. This is important in a potential significant other because it shows how much commitment these people have when they find something they like. Geeks are willing to go the extra
CONDUCT AND VALUE | PAGE 7 what is truly right and wrong or discovering the real reason life has value, but only using our interpretation of facts to advocate on behalf of what we want. This is why I believe we need something outside and above us for a
truly objective morality. The question was asked if I believe that I have value on my own. My response would be that my value is found in my Maker, and I believe my existence is impossible without Him.
mile to show how much they care about games or shows they like. When this liking is established, it is not a casual liking — it is a commitment. Last time I checked, people don’t look for a relationship where their partner is one foot in, one foot out. Commitment and loyalty help establish trust. Trust is essential in any relationship. Without trust, it dies.
When you are now part of that affection be sure to receive many gifts. Gifts are fun and it goes to further prove love and affection which is always key in a relationship. Besides, geeks have the coolest toys. I, for one, have never seen an unhappy person running around with a Nerf gun or playing with a lightsaber.
granted these games can get pretty intense depending who you are playing with — to the more advanced World of Warcraft-type games. Geeks like to keep up and maintain the imagination that it seems many people lose as they get older. If you ask a geek about something they like or enjoy, they can talk your ear off. There are few dull moments.
When I was walking around the mall one day, I came across Dr. Who’s sonic screwdriver. I bought it simply because I love the show and thought it was cool. If you know any geeks, they do these things a lot. Geeks like to buy cool stuff to show their affection.
The day-to-day grind can get exhausting. A good way to get away and have some fun is to play some video games or cuddle up and watch TV. This is the environment in which geeks thrive. Its like when Aladdin sang to Jasmine that he could show her a whole new world. All sorts of game playing is possible from the casual Mario Party games —
Assuming a world without Him and that I exist by chance through evolution I cannot logically assume that because I exist I have an inherent value. I haven’t been convinced by any argument that tries to prove every human has such value in a universe without God,
or a god and I don’t believe it’s my burden to disprove. We justify our belief that humans have value without God by saying it’s because it feels wrong to say we don’t have value or because we want it to be this way. I believe that God, the God of the Bible, is the best
Exhibit B. Geeks will buy you nice things
Exhibit C. Geeks make life more interesting

they find something the like, they go all in. Geeks will not take you for granted. You will be more valued than all the loot in any fantasy world. When all is said and done, a relationship thrives when each person is actively committed to each other. It is that special hook.
Now go try it out
Exhibit D. Geeks will value you
Geeks will not usually have the ridiculous good looks of the athletes or the popular kids, and that is not a bad thing. Unlike the kids who were popular in high school, geeks have not had people fawn over them just because. This makes them much more appreciative when someone special comes their way. Going back to how geeks are passionate, when
This theory is not flawless and the Maker knows all geeks are not created equal. But what should be considered is rather than always looking to catch that super hot guy or girl, maybe give a geek a chance. You may just find yourself meeting the special person who will care for you and treat you like the rare item you are. (Waves hand) geeks are the significant other you are looking for.
justification for belief in this value. My argument is that God is necessary for the existence of right and wrong and inherent value of human life. While many people believe humans have value, that people do believe this or that it seems obvious is
not justification enough for why it is true. Looking for a means to justify this value in the natural world fails to validate protection for all humans, but a God who made us in His image and gave of Himself to redeem us proved our value in the most remarkable way.

North Dakota State’s Madrigal Dinners is a long-running dinner theater event, combining food and music.
Renaissance Era Madrigal Dinners Turn 40 Longtime dinner theater event rounds up student singers, musicians, faculty lutenist, smoked pig’s head for three nights BY JACK DURA
For 40 years, North Dakota State’s Madrigal Dinners have been bringing the sounds and scene of the 16th century Renaissance to the campus and community. The long-running dinner theater event encompasses a meal with music in the Challey Atrium of Reineke Fine Arts Center, where 200 guests will be entertained with food, fanfare and some interactive surprises. “The script is full of audience participation and surprises,” Madrigal Singers conductor Michael Weber said. “Of course, I can’t give the surprises away.” The University Chamber Singers conducted by Charlette Moe and the Madrigal Singers conducted by Weber help present this dinner with a show assisted by live brass ensembles on the floor above the atrium in the upstairs music wing. A different brass ensemble entertains each night, bringing the grand total of student performers to somewhere around 70. Musicology lecturer Annett Richter also
contributes to the sounds of the century with her lute, an ancestor of the mandolin. On the floor of the main event, a lord and lady preside over a four-course meal catered by Dining Services including soup, salad, entree and dessert. A court jester and a fool character add some audience interaction to the event, as well as a theatrical aspect to the dinner theater-type event. From start to finish, the event is longer than your average production, but the food and fanfare only add to it. “The show and the eating happen throughout,” Weber said, “and then we get done with all the eating, and then we do a concert for about 25 minutes, and that ends the evening ... it’s about two and a half hours. We don’t rush the meal, there’s other stuff that happens all the way through, and depending on how large the crowd is, that’s how fast we get through the meal.” On display for the dinner is a decorated, smoked pig’s head provided by NDSU
Animal Sciences and prepared by Dining Services. This piece of faunal decor is presented before the “Boar’s Head Carol” prior to the main course. “It’s a little bit of pageantry,” Weber said of the head. Students can attend the Madrigal Dinners for $10 on Thursday night; otherwise, tickets run at $40 for Friday and Saturday. Seating capacity can accommodate up to 200 in the Challey Atrium, but the event coordinators like to keep it around 100. Despite how formal this event may W seem, guests are invited to wear casual attire to formal wear, whatever they so choose. This is one aspect of a type of event that can be anything from very proper and formal to relaxed like the “earthy” Minnesota Renaissance Festival. Weber invites students to attend, especially those who have never taken part before. “If you’ve never been to one, I’ll think

A little lesson for all can be found in Theatre B’s latest offering of “Storefront Church,” running now at the brick front theater in downtown Fargo. John Patrick Shanley’s play finds a group of six people entangled in the efforts to get a church on the first floor of a soon-tobe-foreclosed building in the Bronx. The frustrated reverend unable and unwilling to pay rent to his overly generous landlady is approached and reproached by the borough president, igniting action that drives the plot for the rest of the play.

But not everyone has the best interests at heart for the church or the community, as a $300 million mall and the borough president’s ponderings cloud the outcome of the church on Jessie Cortez’s first floor. A deformed loan officer and his somewhat pompous boss, a bank CEO, provide the means to save the church and the building from foreclosure, but that’s not what’s at stake here in “Storefront Church.” Questions of community, humanity and politics comprise a certain compassion that makes the Christmas spirit in this play.

‘Big Hero 6’: Hope For Benevolent Technology Speaks to New Generation a colorful bunch of students with different scientific talents ignite Hiro’s passion for the possibility of technology and the good it can do for mankind. When Hiro’s invention is stolen, this group (the “Big Hero 6”) must band together to catch the thief. Hiro’s brother’s robot Baymax also tags along in this quest. His Michelin Man stature and intonation are more reminiscent of “Mulan’s” Chien-Po than WALL-E. Though he is not instantly endearing, he grows on you with his Pillsbury Doughboy huggable-ness and silent-era physical comedy. Baymax starkly contrasts his setting, San Fransokyo, a futuristic Japanese San Francisco with dark and grimy city streets that resembles Blade Runner more than Disney. As the film progresses the setting becomes more conducive to Baymax and the
Disney’s latest animated film speaks to a new generation Larisa Bosserman Contributing Writer
Disney’s newest animated feature “Big Hero 6” is an enjoyable film despite the ineffective title and conformity to please an audience wowed by standard plot lines and special effects. There are attempts to speak to a new generation about how the youth can shape the future through their benevolent inventions. Hiro Hamada is a brilliant adolescent who can build cutting-edge robots and battle them in underground fights. His hustling gets him into trouble until his big brother recognizes his talent and redirects him to a university setting where
WOMEN OF LOCKERBIE | FROM FRONT It’s the 11,000 pieces of bloody, fuel-stained, gutsridden clothing that the women of Lockerbie want to wash and send to the families of the crash victims. It’s a small act, one they hope will bring healing to those afflicted by the disaster, including one woman and her husband in Lockerbie for a crash memorial service. Bill and Madeline Livingston came to Lockerbie to see where their son died,
but all Madeline can do is run around the hills of Lockerbie, looking for something of her son. Sophomore Maggie Zentner does the role justice, running around the thruststyle theater, searching tirelessly for something that was never there. She’s more reminiscent of Merida from “Brave” than anything with that mane of hair, and she carries quite a load with her often unlikable, though piteous character.
positive future he represents. The old, confined, industrial grit is replaced by a bright, airy city with symbiosis between environment and technology. This is best exemplified when Hiro and Baymax are sitting on a futuristic wind turbine in the sky, overlooking the Golden Gate Bridge and a horizon of possibilities. Perhaps foreshadowing what the inventions could bring if the next generation can design helpful technology and not compromise for monetary gain. This is one of the ways
the film speaks to youth. A rehash of the classic concept with power comes responsibility. The scientific inventions in the film, though made for good, can be made dangerous weapons in the hands of evil. Hiro must learn that invention must be guided by a moral compass as all boys and girls must learn, especially in this age when society is advancing rapidly and robots are becoming more plausible in reality. The film also recruits for the tech industries. There is a stereotype that students are afraid of arithmetic,
intimidated by physics and unmotivated to try these “hard subjects.” Programs have been designed to rekindle a passion for these disciplines among youth, especially a demographic previously seen as unsuited for the hard sciences: women. This film accepts the female presence in the science and technology industries. Perhaps Honey Lemon, a student in the lab who invents fascinating chemical substances, will be a source of inspiration that girls can hold their own in the lab. Honey Lemon retains her femininity while mastering stereotypical masculine qualities like math and science skills. She wears stilettos, hipster glasses and flirty feminine dresses as colorful as her exploding chemicals. Her smarts keep her in the running with all the male students in the movie (literally, even in
Her husband, played by senior Hayden Spaeth, is about as calm as a guy can be, considering the situation. He’s numb to the core from the events surrounding the death of his son and its effect on his wife, and he finds a shelter from the storm from the women of Lockerbie, the kindliest souls thatcha ever did meet. While the actresses behind these women are all in their element here, they face the challenge of the Scottish accent, and it’s one they meet head-on (for the most part).
We can cut them some slack because, hey, holding accents other than our own is hard. But if anyone’s up the challenge, it’s Clare Geinert. You betcha. Geinert is gold in “The Women of Lockerbie.” She brings out a softness and a strength in her character that threatens to boil over a couple of times in the 90-minute play. She’s certainly not the star (everyone shares the spotlight), but she stands up for what is right, and stands out because of it.
The ladies behind her (Taylor Fay, Abigail Gilbert, Elyssa Bickford and Alice Wu) embody everyone’s favorite great-aunts rolled up with a cup of kindness, a dash of fortitude and the most determined demeanors at work in “The Women of Lockerbie.” Throw in senior Kami Sim, a hopped-up old cleaning woman working in the warehouse where all the clothes are kept, and you’ve added a touch of humor to the tragedy (though not

chase scenes she keeps up in her stilettos). She and Hiro model that anyone can be in these industries. Science is no longer just for the guys and is an approachable frontier. What keeps this film from being great are some of the far-fetched inventions and obvious plot inclusions meant to help it sell at the box office. The film forced a superhero ending. The beginning was unique and intriguing. It deserved a complementary conclusion and title. The ending was also framed to accommodate a sequel. Regardless of its flaws, fans of Disney will appreciate it. “Big Hero 6” has timely content, impressive animation and provides hope for a bright future, inspiring youth to navigate a course through their ingenuity and morality. enough to go around). For a play that could very well have wallowed in sadness and grief, “The Women of Lockerbie” picks itself up and dusts itself off after several characters’ “Why me?” moments. There’s a bigger picture at play here, one a whole lot larger than Lockerbie or a simple stage. It’s a line Geinert utters, that “hatred will not have the last word,” and in a world rocked by anger, it’s all the more true, no matter how small it may seem onstage.

That last play happened with 54 seconds remaining in the game. Carson Wentz found true freshman receiver RJ Urzendowski in the corner of the endzone to put the Bison up 26-24.

North Dakota State women’s basketball traveled to play the undefeated Mississippi State Bulldogs Tuesday. The Bulldogs remained undefeated after a 109-58 blowout win of the Bison. The Bulldogs shot 50 percent from behind the arc, going 11-for-22. They outrebounded the Bison 53-30 and 20-8 on the offensive end. They also finished the game with 10 steals. Freshman Victoria Vivians had a gamehigh 26 points, burying six three-pointers,
“It was a 50/50 game and we made a few plays at the end,” NDSU head coach Chris Klieman said. “Young kids made some plays at the end. That’s why this league is this league. It’s so tough every week. I knew that this game was going to come down to the fourth quarter.” The two Missouri Valley Football Conference rivals went back and forth in the first three quarters. The Bison scored 14 straight points in the first 17 minutes. SDSU answered with 14 points before the half. Both teams added field goals in the third quarter. With a 17-17 score heading into the fourth quarter, the game had a feeling where whoever makes the biggest play will win the game. The Bison found that playmaker in Urzendowski. Down 24-20 after Jake Wieneke hauled in a 3-yard touchdown catch with three minutes, 18 seconds remaining and with NDSU’s leading receiver Zach Vraa
sidelined with an injury, Urzendowski stepped up in big moments. The Bison calmly marched down the field as the clock ticked. Urzendowski made his first splash with a 29-yard reception to SDSU’s 21-yard line. The next play saw Urzendowski draw a pass interference. Then, facing a second-and-12 on the 12-yard line, Wentz looked Urzendowski’s way and dropped in a pass to a diving Urzendowski in the corner of the endzone. The touchdown stood after it was reviewed. Urzendowski finished the game with two touchdowns and caught 109 of Wentz’s 235 passing yards. “Just tried to stay calm really and we’ve run that play a few times,” Urzendowski said. “We kind of got the same look, so presnap read I thought it was probably coming to me. Just ended up making a play.” The Bison sealed the game with a play from another freshman seconds later.
Redshirt cornerback Tre Dempsey stepped in front of Austin Sumner’s first pass of the possession with 43 seconds left. The come-from-behind win was something the Bison haven’t had to do this season. “It sounds cheesy but it’s something you dream of,” Wentz said. “We’ve been fortunate enough during the season to be up at the end quite a few times. We’ve practiced the two-minute drill so many times, but to finally get out there and execute it, it was a lot of fun.” The Bison advance to the quarterfinals for the fifth straight year. They host Coastal Carolina, the same team the Bison beat last year in the quarterfinals. “I went to almost all the seniors afterwards and said ‘Hey, we’re not done playing football,’” Wentz said. “I know they’re all excited and I’m excited as well. (We’re) ready to get back to work.”
as well as nine rebounds. Her teammate, sophomore Breanna Richardson, posted a double-double, finishing with 17 points and 13 rebounds. Bison senior Brooke LeMar carried the offensive burden for the Bison, posting 17 points, seven assists and four rebounds. Junior Marena Whittle added 12 points and led the team with eight rebounds. The Bison could not contain the Bulldogs’ hot shooting, nor could they contain their bench scoring. The Bulldogs bench players — four scored in double figures — dominated the Bison 66 bench points to eight.

Dexter Werner finished with 13 points and eight rebounds. The Golden Eagles were up 21 at one point in the second half, and the closest NDSU got in the second half was 10 points on a put back by Dupree with 7 minutes, 21 seconds left. Matt Bingaya led the Golden Eagles in points with 15. Rasham Suarez chipped in 13 points, six assists and five rebounds. For as good as Alexander was from deep, the Golden Eagles were even better, hitting on 10 of 20 three-point attempts. This was the Golden Eagles’ 19th straight home win and 38th straight home nonconference win.
NDSU men’s basketball played the Southern Mississippi Golden Eagles Wednesday. The Golden Eagles held the Bison at bay, winning 78-65. The Golden Eagles opened the floodgates early on with a 23-3 run in the first 10 minutes. That left the Bison an uphill battle the rest of the way. NDSU senior Lawrence Alexander tied the school record with seven three-pointers. He shot 7 of 11 from beyond the three-point arc. NDSU sophomore Carlin Dupree finished with a career-high 16 points, 14 of those came in the second half. Sophomore

NDSU Pulls Out Scrappy Win Despite Penalties Urzendowski’s touchdown propels Bison past mistakes Colton Pool Sports Editor
I actually started writing t h i s column before the game was over to try to console fans as if North Dakota State had lost on Saturday. After NDSU was down four points and had committed 11 penalties, I didn’t think the Bison were going to finish with the win. Embarrassing. The No. 2-seeded Bison proved me wrong and pulled out a last-minute 27-24 win against Missouri Valley Football Conference rival South Dakota State in the second round of the FCS playoffs in the Fargodome in sloppy fashion. But like any of the Bison coaches or players will say, all that matters is the end result. Down by four points with three minutes left on their own 24-yard line, the Bison (12-1) compiled an
eight play, 76-yard drive that concluded with a 12-yard touchdown pass to freshman RJ Urzendowski in the back corner of the endzone. After the Jackrabbits (95) took the lead with about 3 minutes left, quarterback Carson Wentz showed composure in the Bison’s final drive. “It was bad down the stretch there, and then they scored,” Wentz said. “We got to the other end (of the field) and we said ‘Hey, we have to rally the troops and get this done.’ RJ’s touchdown was huge.” Even the game for the referees was messy. Three flags were picked up that easily could have altered the game. Whether the officials were having an off day or not, NDSU’s 110 yards lost in penalties is tough to overcome. The Bison were about to beat themselves. “Fortunately we were able to overcome them at the end,” Wentz said of his team’s mishaps. “That’s definitely something we’ve got to clean up this week.” NDSU simply committed uncharacteristic mental lapses. On SDSU’s first scoring drive, the Bison were called for 25 yards worth of penalties. The drive

ended with SDSU exposing NDSU’s weak spots and scoring off of a 17-yard touchdown Zach Zenner run. SDSU’s Je Ryan Butler bolted for an 80-yard punt return, but a yellow flag was thrown down during the play. Naturally, chasing players eased up at the sight of the flag as Butler was caught at NDSU’s own 11. But the flag was picked up, meaning the return would stand. Early in the second quarter, the Bison offense gained some traction with a first down and managed to get into a manageable third down. Then Jesse Hinz committed an illegal snap. Then Trevor Gebhart got caught for a false start.
NDSU went from a 3rd and 5 to a 3rd and 15. After a failed pass, the Bison were forced to punt. But then the Jackrabbits reciprocated a few possessions later when Wentz threw a tipped pass that was intercepted, but SDSU was called for pass interference away from the ball. This kept the stuttering NDSU drive alive enough for Adam Keller to get in range and knock through a 42-yard field goal. SDSU head coach John Stiegelmeier even said one of the most key moments of the game was when his team was called for a false start two plays before kicking a field goal to take the lead. If that penalty hadn’t set them back and SDSU had
gotten a touchdown out of the drive, things would’ve been different. “We had some calls go our way,” Stiegelmeier said. “We played hard and like it was our last game.” As the Jackrabbits drove back after NDSU retook the lead – which started with a kickoff out of bounds – CJ Smith was called for pass interference to basically let SDSU start in Bison territory. “Those things we have to get cleaned up,” NDSU head coach Chris Klieman said. “But I’m not going to change the way we do things in the secondary. We’re a physical, get-after-you, getup-in-your-face secondary.” And on what would have been the play of the game,

the Jackrabbits made a mess at the line to give Zenner a chance to fall forward for a first down. It would have been the pivotal play if NDSU hadn’t secured the win by the end. “That was a good football game,” Sumner said. “It’s just two teams that battled hard. It’s tough to lose those types of games when you leave it all out on the field.” Mistakes were made, fouls were called, fans were upset and refs were, at times, confused. The Bison just had the final trump card to pull at the end. “My hat’s off to our guys for finding a way. The Fargodome is pretty special,” Klieman said. “We survived and advanced.”
Bison Fail to Comeback, Fall to UND in OT NDSU’s LeMar goes of for 33 points Corrie Dunshee Staff Writer
The North Dakota State women’s basketball team fought from a 16-point second half deficit, but fell to the University of North Dakota 90-87 in overtime at Scheels Arena. Overall, UND went 36for-71 inside the arc (50.7 percent), 0-for-7 from beyond and 18-for-24 at the free throw line (75 percent). Mia Loyd had 22 points and 13 rebounds for UND. Emily Evers and Kelsey Knox posted 15 points and Evers totaled 13 rebounds and seven blocks. Dyer had seven assists. “They’ve got some size to them,” NDSU point guard Brooke LeMar said, “and that was an advantage for us to push the tempo the
whole entire game.” NDSU went 32-for-81 inside the arc (39.5 percent), 9-for-26 from beyond (34.6 percent) and 14-for-17 at the free throw line (82.4 percent). LeMar had a game-high 33 points and seven assists on the night. Holly Johnson had 17 points and seven rebounds. “I understand the rivalry, and it’s a fierce one,” NDSU head coach Maren Walseth said. “But one game does not dictate our season or define our season. It’s important for us to focus ahead and stay true to the process that they prove each and every day.” Within the first minute and a half of gameplay, UND jumped out to a quick 4-0 start with two baskets made by sophomore Leah Szabla. The Bison quickly jumped back and took the lead 7-4 after Johnson was fouled on a jumper and made her following freethrow. NDSU kept that lead and extended it to six when
Johnson landed a threepoint shot at 10 minutes 19 seconds in the first half to put her team up 25-19. UND clawed back and tied the game at 25 when Mia Loyd made both freethrow shots upon a LeMar foul, and regained the lead when Szabla threw in a layup with 8 minutes 18 seconds left in the half. With 25 seconds left in the first half, Taylor Thunstedt threw a threepointer to finish out the half and bring the Bison within eight at 50-42. The second half saw the Bison scoring first as Marena Whittle threw up a jumper 8 seconds in to make the score 50-44. Trailing 54-46, LeMar made two straight threepointers to bring the Bison within two at 54-52. This would be the closest the Bison would come for a while to seeing the lead as UND then went on a 16-2 point run to pull ahead 7054.

With an eight-point run of their own, NDSU crawled back and eventually took the lead 80-78 after another LeMar three-pointer. Following a foul by Whittle, Szabla went to the line and tied the game with two free-throw shots to send the game into overtime.
Quickly trailing 84-80, two LeMar free throws and a jumper by Liz Keena brought the Bison to a tie again. With another threepointer made by LeMar, the Bison saw their last lead of the night come at 87-86. With a layup by UND’s Makailah Dyer and two

free throws by Evers, UND sealed the deal and took the game 90-87. The Bison are back in action at 7 p.m. Monday against Mayville State. “It’s extremely frustrating,” LeMar said. “To almost have it again, it’s tough.”

Need for Expansion Postseason expansion would add interest to college football Joe Kerlin
Staff Writer
It has taken 36 years, but the FBS has finally caught wind of the excitement and suspense the FCS has brought to its football season by introducing its first college football playoff. As you know, the College Football Playoff will include the top four teams in the country as selected by a 13-member selection committee. Starting Oct. 28, and every Tuesday evening since, the committee’s rankings have been unveiled with the same cinematographic elements as LeBron James’ “The Decision” in July 2010. The only difference is that Cleveland avoids burning any former hometown hero jerseys and is left heart broken. Or maybe they will? When this was written, Ohio State was 11-1, Big Ten East champions and ranked fifth in the College Football Playoff rankings. Without prior knowledge of what transpired in Saturday’s Big Ten Championship game against Wisconsin, OSU will be the first team on

the outside of the playoff bracket looking in. Sure the Buckeyes’ have lost two quarterbacks, and it wouldn’t surprise me if you’re reading this two days after OSU got trampled by Melvin Gordon and the Wisconsin Badgers, but my concern is the College Football Playoff is too exclusive and doesn’t give enough teams the opportunity to make a championship run. If Wisconsin won Saturday, wouldn’t you think they deserve a playoff seed as one of the champions from a Power Five conference? The Badgers’ losses came in its season opener by four to Louisiana State and a fluky game at Northwestern. Since then, UW has strung together seven-straight victories (eight if they defeated Ohio State) and have the best running back in college football who will be in New York City for the Heisman Trophy ceremony. It wouldn’t seem right to deprive fans from seeing one of the top players in the country run over teams in the playoffs. The College Football Playoff will expand to eight in due time. But remind me to freshen up on my English Premier League so I can leave the country if the playoff field doesn’t act within the next five years. The FCS expanded to an eight-team playoff four years after its inception in 1978. The next year, the field expanded to 12. And
S
S
within its first eight years of existence, the FCS playoff field expanded to 16. The growth of the FBS playoffs won’t spread that fast, but after the monster ratings the Rose Bowl and Sugar Bowl will get on ESPN during the two semifinal games Jan. 1, the NCAA and ESPN might find themselves renegotiating for a longer playoff sooner than expected. Just like death and taxes, controversy is guaranteed after tomorrow’s final ranking is released and the only way to combat hours of analysis about why they got it wrong is to add more teams. The College Football Playoff rankings last weekend saw Texas Christian at No. 3 in the rankings, three spots ahead of Big 12 counterpart Baylor, who defeated TCU in a memorable shootout Oct. 11. Debating who’s the better team will result in this column going on until tomorrow when the new rankings are released, but if the playoffs included eight teams this season, TCU and Baylor would settle their differences on the field as one of the most intriguing games of the first round. The more the merrier, and with the College Football Playoffs, more teams will mean better match-ups, more interest and more money for organizations involved. In due time, the College Football Playoff will expand. check US out, www.ndsuspectrum.com
