University student killed in hit-and-run over weekend

This chef is bananas

Police charge driver, 20, with DUI, leaving scene of accident DAILY ILLINI STAFF REPORT

A 22-year-old University senior died Saturday morning after being struck by what police say was a drunken driver. Anthony G. Pauls, senior in Engineering, of Lake in the Hills, Ill., was in a hit-and-run accident Friday night. The Urbana Police Department responded to a call at 11:50 p.m. in the 200 block of West University Avenue, near the intersection with Lake Street. Police determined Pauls had been hit by a vehicle, which then fled the scene. Soon after responding to the call, an Urbana police sergeant pulled over a vehicle with heavy damage that was driving in the area. Police identified the driver as 20-year-old Champaign resident Albert Fleming. Fleming was arrested on preliminary charges of driving under the influence of alcohol, leaving the scene of an accident involving injury or death and other traffic charges. He is being held at the Champaign County satellite jail with a $500,000 bond. He will be arraigned at the Champaign County Courthouse at 1:30 p.m. Monday. Pauls was pronounced dead at 7:54 a.m. Saturday at Carle Foundation Hospital in Urbana. Preliminary results from an autopsy performed by Champaign County Coroner Duane Northrup indicate Pauls died from multiple injuries sustained when he was struck by the car. Toxicology results are pending. The Champaign County Coroner’s office and the Urbana Police Department are still investigating the hit-and-run. Anyone with information is asked to contact the Urbana Police Department at 217384-2320 or Crime Stoppers at 217-373-8477.

Disability expo raises awareness, fights stigmas BY PULU WANG STAFF WRITER

People with disabilities were among the many attendees of the sixth annual “Reaching Out for Answers: Disability Resource Expo,” which was held Saturday at Urbana’s Lincoln Square mall to provide information about the services available for those with physical, developmental, emotional or mental disabilities. Put on by the Champaign County Anti-Stigma Alliance — an organization of 12 different service groups and agencies — the event was designed to raise awareness about the stigmas surrounding people with disabilities.

“We want to make sure that our community as a whole understands about disabilities,” said Barb Bressner, consultant for the Champaign County Mental Health Board and the Champaign County Developmental Disabilities Board. “There is a stigma that will kind of connect with a lot of disabilities. We are trying to eliminate that, and this is one way: by people coming out and seeing and experiencing.” At the event, organizations and vendors in ChamapaignUrbana hosted tables and exhibits to share information and talk about the services they provide. It also featured also presen-

tations about AmTrykes, bicycles for people with lower-body paralysis , and the Barking Angels Service Dog Foundation, which fi nd companion dogs for people with disabilities. The expo included face painting, balloon animals, games and a moon bounce. Janice McAteer, director of development for the Developmental Services Center and member of the expo steering committee, said the expo was thought up by Joyce Dill, Champaign County Developmental Disabilities Board member. “It was her idea to create a sort of one-stop shop for people

who wanted to learn about the services that were available in the community,” McAteer said. One such one-stop shop was found in the Disability Pride room, where 20 entrepreneurs with disabilities presented their products to expo attendees. Entertainment for the fair included Ministry in Motion, a signing choir from Danville’s Second Church of Christ. The group used sign language to communicate lyrics set to music. Smile Healthy, a non-profit dental organization, set up an exhibit at the fair. The organization provides dental services for the community.

“We have some tips for people with limited movement to help them be able to brush,” said Jeana Shroyer, education coordinator for Smile Healthy. Holly Bertsch, a resident of Champaign, attended the fair. She said the event was an educational experience for her. “I wanted to get some resources to see what was available,” said Bertsch, who has bipolar disorder. “The whole event is quite interesting and helpful. I have gained a lot.”

Illini fight hunger in central Illinois RSOs assist Eastern Illinois Foodbank in annual food drive BY YELE AJAYI CONTRIBUTING WRITER

The Office of Volunteer Programs kicked off the month of October by helping the Eastern Illinois Foodbank with their annual food drive Food for Families. The drive ran from Sept. 29 to Sunday with a goal of collecting more than 400,000 meals for disadvantaged families in the area. Every year, Eastern Illinois Foodbank raises money and canned goods that can be given and served to families in need in east central Illinois. The Junior League of Champaign-Urbana sponsored the fi rst Food for Families 26 years ago to help fight the growing hunger issues in the community. Last year, more than 400,000 meals were donated over a twoweek period, according to the

Eastern Illinois Foodbank’s website. Vaneitta Goines , program advisor at the Office of Volunteer Programs, said the office has assisted Food for Families for the past three years. “We do it because there is such a growing need in Champaign,” Goines said. She said monetary donations are more helpful than actual canned goods as every dollar donated can buy about 10 cans of food. Goines said the Office of Volunteer Programs also puts together meals that they donate to the Eastern Illinois Foodbank. The food bank accepts donated and discounted food and distributes it to over 220 emergency food programs, such as food pantries, soup kitchens and shelters. Food for Families allows these emergency programs to save millions of dollars each year in food purchasing and handling costs. These groups are able to determine which foods they

Fraudulent use of i-cards ‘no different than stealing or finding ... credit card’ BY CARINA LEE STAFF WRITER

Identity theft doesn’t always have to involve a stolen credit card or driver’s license. After a University student’s stolen i-card was used at the Undergraduate Library, two Urbana residents were arrested, one of whom was charged with identity theft. Police said the suspects — Robert Austin Taylor-Anderson and Devante Warnsby, both 19 — used the card to check out electronic items from the Undergraduate Library. Both were arrested on charges of theft of state property over $500, and Warnsby was charged with identity theft. “It’s no different than stealing or finding someone else’s credit card and going to a store and buying stuff with a stolen card,” said Sgt. Matt Myrick of the University Police Department. “The concept is the same.” Police said the students attempted to sell the video and computer games but were arrested.

Students suspected of misusing an i-card may be subject to University disciplinary action, according to the Student Code. The owner of the stolen i-card became aware of the crime after receiving emails from library staff that the computer games he allegedly rented were overdue. Myrick said witness statements are usually what catch those who misuse i-cards. “In this particular case, I think there might have been some witnesses that were interviewed at the library and ... some surveillance video that was utilized,” Myrick said. “The suspects were identified and interviewed.” Myrick said stolen i-cards are normally used to get into campus recreation centers and get free use of the Champaign-Urbana Mass Transit District, in addition to checkouts from the library. According to the i-card program office, 6,000 i-cards were reported lost last year. In 2010,

The Center for Advanced Study Twenty-Second Annual Lecture

Between Rome and Jerusalem: Labor and the Law in the 21st Century Matthew W. Finkin

Center for Advanced Study Professor of Law

Should the law distinguish the lease of labor from the lease of a house? Roman law said “no.” Jewish law said “yes.” The debate echoes down the centuries and in America today. By the end of the 1940s, the United States settled upon a modus vivendi: a low statutory floor for wages and hours upon which collective bargaining would build. That experiment, in terms of raising income and achieving fairness at work, enjoyed some success. But collective representation has evaporated in the private sector; and, though the floor of federal protections has been raised, realization is problematic. Legal address to new and pressing problems rests with the states, with piecemeal results; and efforts to privatize public law and to blunt the growth of law abide. Consequently, we are summoned anew to confront an ancient issue: What is the role of the law in the employment relationship? Are we to be Rome — or Jerusalem? These presentations are free and open to the public. For more information, contact the Center for Advanced Study at 333-6729 or www.cas.illinois.edu.

Celebrity chef shares both cooking tips and laughs BY KAI CHEN CONTRIBUTING WRITER

While singing and dancing at the Hilton Garden Inn, Chef Jon Ashton made a presentation Sunday called “Making Mealtimes Matter.” The presentation, sponsored by the News-Gazette, was part of the Dash Around the Table Tour. Ashton, contributing editor for Dash magazine, separated his presentation into two sections. The first half focused on cooking efficiently, and the second half was about having fun while cooking. “A lot of family members both work, so (the event) is showing people how to make mealtimes matter,” Ashton said. “Being within a family, in the kitchen, everybody helps out, you talk about your day. And then also what we do is show people how to cut corners, how to get a meal on the table but with ingredients you can get from your local grocery store.” The two-hour interactive cooking show left the audience laughing. Ashton showed people how

John Ealy, senior associate director of the i-card program, said it is important to remove that opportunity because these crimes can be easily avoided. He said students can notify the ID center that their card is lost. After office hours, lost i-cards can be reported to University police, who can deactivate the card. He said University housing residents can use a temporary card until they receive a new one. Lt. Tony Brown of the University Police Department said these prevention tips are important so the card can’t be used at campus recreation or dining facilities. However, Ealy said those who are checking i-cards need to fulfill their responsibilities too. Students in roles at dining halls, libraries or campus recreation centers need to make sure they are verifying that the person giving them an i-card is actually the person the card belongs to, he said.

to quickly cook “creamy butternut squash soup,” “cozy midweek sausage pasta,” grilled potatoes topped with shrimp and “Brennan’s Bananas Foster.” “I love to cook with a smile,” he said. “The Dash Around the Table Tour is equal parts laughter and fun.” Ashton, who is from Liverpool, England, has been cooking for more than 20 years. He said his grandmother affected his lifelong passion for cooking, and his grandmother told him to “share with others.” “With Granny Ashton, not only did she teach me how to make her bread ... but in her kitchen we learned so much about life,” he said. “We learned compassion, we learned forgiveness, we learned tolerance, and we learned the gift of giving to neighbors — because she baked for five neighbors — and those lessons have been carried with me.” Ashton said he likes to use the tour to pass lessons down to younger generations.

“You reach an age — and I’m still young for the record — but you reach an age where you think, ‘It’s not just about me. It’s about the next generation. What can we do for them?’” Ashton said. Some attendees said they felt they had learned a lot about cooking from Ashton. Carol Wisniewski said she plans to use what she learned from the presentation at home. “I have gotten new ideas to use (in) my kitchen,” she said. “(I) learned how to cook healthier for my kids.” One of Ashton’s cooking tips is to sing while cooking to reduce the feeling of pressure. Roaa Al-Heeti, of World Harvest in Champaign, said she could use Ashton’s tips in her kitchen to make cooking easier and quicker. “I enjoy some of his tidbits for cooking around the kitchen,” she said. “I think those will come in handy on a day-to-day basis.”

Skydiver completes 24-mile supersonic space jump Baumgartner lands in New Mexico, breaks sound barrier BY JUAN CARLOS LLORCA THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ROSWELL, N.M. — In a giant leap from more than 24 miles up, a daredevil skydiver shattered the sound barrier Sunday while making the highest jump ever — a tumbling, death-defying plunge from a balloon to a safe landing in the New Mexico desert. Felix Baumgartner hit Mach 1.24, or 833.9 mph, according to preliminary data, and became the fi rst man to reach supersonic speed without traveling in a jet or a spacecraft after hopping out of a capsule that had reached an altitude of 128,100 feet above the Earth. Landing on his feet in the desert, the man known as “Fearless Felix” lifted his arms in victory to the cheers of jubilant onlookers and friends. “When I was standing there on top of the world, you become so humble, you do not think about breaking records anymore, you do not think about gaining scientific data,” he said after the jump. “The only thing you want is to come back alive.” A worldwide audience watched live on the Internet via cameras mounted on his capsule as Baumgartner, wearing a pressurized suit, stood in the

In a giant leap from more than 24 miles up, Baumgartner shattered the sound barrier while making the highest jump ever. doorway of his capsule, gave a thumbs-up and leapt into the stratosphere. “Sometimes we have to get really high to see how small we are,” an exuberant Baumgartner told reporters outside mission control completes after the jump. Baumgartner’s descent lasted for just over nine minutes, about half of it in a free fall of 119,846 feet, according to Brian Utley, a jump observer from the International Federation of Sports Aviation. He said the speed calculations were preliminary figures. Baumgartner said traveling faster than sound is “hard to describe because you don’t feel it.” With no reference points, “you don’t know how fast you travel,” he said. The 43-year-old former Austrian paratrooper with more than 2,500 jumps behind him

had taken off early Sunday in a capsule carried by a 55-story ultra-thin helium balloon. His ascent that was tense at times and included concerns about how well his facial shield was working. Any contact with the capsule on his exit could have torn his suit, a rip that could expose him to a lack of oxygen and temperatures as low as minus-70 degrees. That could have caused lethal bubbles to form in his bodily fluids. But none of that happened. He activated his parachute as he neared Earth, gently gliding into the desert east of Roswell and landing without any apparent difficulty. The images triggered another loud cheer from onlookers at mission control, among them his mother, Eva Baumgartner, who was overcome with emotion, crying. He then was taken by helicopter to meet fellow members of

his team, whom he hugged in celebration. Coincidentally, Baumgartner’s feat came on the 65th anniversary of the day that U.S. test pilot Chuck Yeager became the fi rst man to officially break the sound barrier in a jet. At Baumgartner’s insistence, some 30 cameras recorded his stunt Shortly after launch, screens at mission control showed the capsule as it began rising high above the New Mexico desert, with cheers erupting from organizers. Baumgartner could be seen on video, calmly checking instruments inside the capsule. Baumgartner’s team included Joe Kittinger, who fi rst tried to break the sound barrier from 19.5 miles up in 1960, reaching speeds of 614 mph. With Kittinger inside mission control, the two men could be heard going over technical details during the ascension.

CDC provides urgent treatment for new fungal caused strand of fatal meningitis BY KATE BRUMBACK THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ATLANTA — Scattered across the carefully landscaped main campus of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention are the staff on the front lines fighting a rare outbreak of fungal meningitis: A scientist in a white lab coat peers through a microscope at fungi on a glass slide. There is a sense of urgency — people are dying, and lives could be saved if those who are sickened get treated in time. But it’s not a race against a fast-spreading illness like avian flu or SARS — or even the fictional virus the CDC fails to unravel in the popular TV series “The Walking Dead.” Unlike those outbreaks, this strain of meningitis isn’t contagious and doesn’t spread between people. It is likely isolated to the contaminated steroid, produced by the New England Compounding Center in Framingham, Mass. Meningitis, an inflammation of the membranes surrounding the brain and spinal cord, is not uncommon. But it is usually caused by bacteria, and it is very unusual to see it in patients with normal immune systems, Jernigan said. This strain is caused by a fungus that is common in dirt and grasses — people routinely come into contact with it without getting sick — but it has never before been identified as the cause of meningitis. By Friday morning, officials believed they had reached about 90 percent of those who were potentially affected, Jernigan said. They planned to continue trying to reach every person to see if they’ve had problems and to warn them to be on the lookout for symptoms, which can include severe headache, nausea, dizziness and fever. The CDC says many of the cases have been mild, but some people had strokes. A meeting is held each morning to review overnight developments and plot a course of action for the day, and another at the end of the day summarizes the day’s developments and looks ahead to the next day.

Muslim Student Association unveils the oppression behind the hijab, strives to eliminate the stereotypes

JOSEPH VANDEHEY Opinions columnist

ast week, University students were shown two different sides of Muslim women. On Tuesday, a 14-year-old Pakistani girl was shot by a Taliban gunman for blogging about life under Taliban rule and endorsing girls’ education. Malala Yousafzai was on her way home from school when the gunman walked up to the bus she was on and shot her in an attempt to silence her message. Following the shooting, a Taliban spokesman told a Pakistani newspaper that the attack was justifiable by Islamic moral code because she was “inviting muslims to hate mujahideen” by criticizing the group. Mujahideen means people struggling to do the will of God . Later in the week, the University’s Muslim Student Association hosted “Wear a Hijab Day.” Members from the group stood outside the Illini Union and invited other Muslim and non-Muslim students to try on hijabs, a head scarf generally worn by Muslim women to cover their hair and neck when in the presence of males not related to them . Commonly, it is understood to be only a symbol of the Muslim faith, but, as The Daily Illini reported Friday, for some students it’s also simply about dressing modestly. Some students also didn’t know that they could wear a hijab, even if they aren’t Muslim. This misunderstanding isn’t only here at the University — it’s something prevalent across most of the Western world. Since 2004, the French government has outlawed any overt religious symbol, including hijabs, in public schools. Although not an entirely religious symbol — rather a practice associated with Islam — the hijab remains an object of Islamic misunderstanding. The Islamic faith, one of roughly 1.5 billion believers, is one that few outside of it understand, no doubt. And attacks like those seen in Benghazi, Libya, a month ago or the shooting of a young Pakistani girl, don’t help to educate the rest of the world what this religion is all about. For one, the Taliban are not any true form of representation of what the Islamic faith upholds. Malala was shot because she spoke out against what she saw as wrong. She advocated for girls’ education, something the Taliban strongly opposes. When criticizing the Taliban and its laws, she wasn’t trying to lash out against her religion. Rather, she was fighting for the rights of fellow girls living under Taliban rule so that they can receive the education that all females should be entitled to. Malala’s activism exists outside any generalization of a conservative and quiet Muslim woman, barred from most forms of free speech. Regardless of a belief, there is no reason that someone should be shot for it. But when it’s a 14-year-old girl, fighting for something that women in this country may take for granted everyday, we should use this as a wake-up call here on campus, in this country, around the world, that the stereotypes that we may have don’t encompass all of the knowledge we may have about Muslims. And it’s even more clear that we know even less about the Taliban. The hijabs are something that are commonly associated with the Taliban, and in turn, the Islamic faith. But the students passing them out on the quad were brave and intelligent to emphasize that wearing the head scarf isn’t simply a declaration of their religious faith. Whether it’s from the small act of passing out hijabs on the Quad or the sickening story of an outspoken and brave-beyondher-years girl in Pakistan, we need to learn one thing: We still have plenty of learning to do.

Pakistani army, government must take a stand for equality KIRSTEN KELLER Opinions columnist

hen a 14-year-old Pakistani girl, rather than the Pakistani government, is the bigger face when it comes to standing up to the Taliban, you know something needs to change. On Wednesday, Malala Yousufzai , who lives in the Swat Valley of Pakistan, was shot in the head by the Taliban and is in critical condition. Malala was not simply another victim of a misguided bullet; three years ago, she started writing a diary for the BBC about life under the Taliban. Since then, she has won Pakistan’s fi rst National Peace Prize and has been featured in a 2009 documentary called “Class Dismissed,” where she advocates for female education. At the beginning of the documentary, Malala’s father, Ziauddan Yousufzai, talks about the current state of education in Swat Valley. “In the area where I live,” Ziauddan said. “There are some people who want to stop educating girls through guns.” The Taliban, an Islamic fundamentalist militant movement, tries to enforce strict Sharia law, or Islamic religious law and moral code. While the culture tends to promote male dominance, the Taliban are criticized for their violent

repression of women. On Thursday, the Taliban released a statement that said anyone who “campaigns against Islam and Sharia law is ordered to be killed by Sharia.” The group said that Malala was not targeted because of her activism for education, but because “of her pioneer role in preaching secularism and so-called enlightened moderation.” Although in a society where females are subordinate to their male counterparts, how can the Pakistani government allow the Taliban to maintain dual power over Swat Valley? How can they still get away with the attempted killing of a girl who simply wants to be able to get an education and to live as a human being? There is no progress for the future of Pakistan if attacks like these continue. The chief of the Pakistani Army, General Ashfaq Parvez Kayani , visited Malala in the hospital and said in a public statement that “It is time we further unite and stand up to fight the propagators of such barbaric mindset and their sympathisers.” I hope that he lives up to these words, for it is most defi nitely time that Pakistan stands up and fights for the equality of its women. We should see droves of furious Pakistanis, militants as well as civilians, band together to create a new Pakistan. In the past few years, the Taliban have destroyed over 200 schools. This fact, along with the attack on

Malala, should be a wake-up call to the Pakistani Army, for they have been priding themselves on their efforts to push the Taliban out of Swat Valley. In the U.S., we enjoy a secular government that is strong and stable enough to halt violent dissent. While we all have our mumbles and grumbles about certain aspects of the government, we will most likely never have to worry about a resistance group taking over or having to fight for basic rights like equal education. “In the world, girls are going to school freely,” Malala said in “Class Dismissed.” “And there is no fear. But in Swat, when we go to school, we are very afraid of Taliban. He will kill us. He will throw acid on our face. He will do anything.” Malala said this three years before the Taliban shot her. If the Pakistani Army can learn courage from anyone, it’s from this 14-yearold girl. Until the Pakistani army and government speak up, activists will continue to fight for equality while risking their lives. “As we say, a mother doesn’t give milk to a child when it doesn’t cry,” Ziauddan said in the documentary. “So if you don’t cry, you won’t have anything. Especially in third world countries like us, you have to scream for everything.” And right now, Malala is doing that screaming.

Don’t discount friends from your hometown when coming to college TOLU TAIWO Opinions columnist

riends are nothing short of wonderful. Yes, sometimes you can’t live with them, and when you do, you want to hurl them through the window when they distract you from writing a paper. But, most of the time, you want to find people who make you feel special, who get your jokes and who make you cry when you think of graduation. Usually, when you go into college, people (read: advice-giving adults) tell you this is where you meet your true friends. This is where you find your niche. And soon after, they warn you to see if you can break away from the mold of familiarity, because, after all, it’s time “to meet new people.” You see, there’s this stigma with going to college with people who went to your high school. By this time in the year, we’re supposed to blaze our own trail and make friends who didn’t share the same ZIP code with us during senior year. We have to be independent, darn it, and God help us if our hometown gets in our way. I agree with this thinking to a point. Part of the reason we look forward to coming to college — besides the promise of 50,000 extracurricular activities and semicrazy Saturday nights — is for new experiences. It’s good to try something new, and it’s especially

great to meet new people. You never know what you might learn from the girl across the hall who came from Cambodia or the kid in your class who lived in Austin for 13 years. However, if some great people came from your town, should you just ignore them in favor of trying to find a new experience? Why can’t you have it all? I think I feel so strongly because I’m a product of these types of friendships. I have a large group of really good friends. Of the 20-odd something number of us, about 15 came from some kind of Naperville school. Whenever others at different schools hear that I hang out with kids who lived no more than 10 minutes from me, I get a gentle scolding. It doesn’t matter that I only knew a handful these people before college; the judging always happens. But I’ve learned that I couldn’t care less. First of all, it made the transition to college much easier. Think about it: It’s exciting to move into a new environment … but it’s also as terrifying as none other. What makes it easier is having people from a similar town hanging around you. The best part is that we dispel all the stereotypes of college friends from the same hometown. True, there are some inside jokes and general “Napervilleisms” that we get. However, we don’t share one brain. In our group, there are science gurus, student leaders, ice cream junkies, anthro-enthusiasts, health nuts, horse riders, music lovers, future teachers, business geeks — and yes, even a journalism major or two thrown in there.

We are composed of stubborn people and lazy people and sweethearts and heartbreakers and smart alecks and Chancellor’s Scholars. No one would think to mix any one of us up; the only thing that’s the same is our sense of humor. It’s never good to ignore others just because they haven’t heard of a famous ice cream shop in your hometown. All of us have multiple close friends that come from different places. We know it’s healthy to have outside company. And like I said, about 25 percent of the people in our group are from elsewhere. But we don’t disregard what we have together. These are the people who make me laugh, and have seen me cry over lost keys. We’ve gone to coffee shops and parties and crazy nature walks. We play games and sing songs and eat all of the foods — and it’s been a blast. We sometimes fight and get sassy with each other, but it’s only because we are all as close as siblings. These crazy weirdos have made me who I am today, and I wouldn’t have had it any other way. I certainly wouldn’t have had it at all if I had decided to pretend they didn’t exist because of prior proximity. Get out there; make a new friend, or seven, or 25. But be sure not to miss what’s out there for the sake of trying something new. And, if you’re lucky, your friends might change you for good.

very now and again, we columnists of the world get it wrong. We make a mistake, we pass bad judgment or we just do not argue as well as we should. Last year, I wrote an article defending the presence of research and especially theoretical research at the University: Even though we might not see tomorrow the impacts of research done today, I argued, we certainly see the accumulated impact of decades and centuries of theoretical research in our present lives. As arguments go, it did not sit right. It lacked bite and immediacy. Surely, I thought, I could come up with a better reason than that. (I have certainly heard better reasons: Timothy Gowers argued that the theoretical and practical are so thoroughly enmeshed that one cannot be extricated from the other.) Thinking about it more, another reason occurred to me. We should support research into the theoretical because we have no idea what it could accomplish. OK, now that will require elaboration. The theoretical is generally defi ned as being beyond the grasp of the known and doable. The popular image of the theoretician is an absent-minded professor forever fiddling with frivolous experiments. But, if you are particularly brave and daring, dear reader, try sitting down with a professor — any professor — and get them talking about their research; the more they talk, the more they will say, “I do not know.” They will tell you that what we know makes up only the tiniest grain of sand in the vast desert of knowledge. What we do not know outweighs what we do know by so many orders of magnitude that even a mathematician would lose count. We do not know, for example, why Japanese and Korean bear so little resemblance to other East Asian languages. We do not know how exactly humans domesticated dogs. We do not know a thing about dark matter. Nor do we know why we do not know these things. We have theories built up to try to explain as much of the universe as we can, but things keep slipping through the cracks. The more we explain, the more the cracks are thrown into sharp relief — glaring imperfections made all the uglier by the cold, logical beauty of their surroundings. All we know about the laws of physics and all the measurements we have taken of the universe tell us that something we call dark matter must be out there; yet those same laws of physics cannot tell us what dark matter is. Our view of the cosmos is incomplete. To put it another way, think of all the mathematical capabilities we have right now. We teach calculus — the height of mathematics just a few short centuries ago — at many high schools. Despite this there are still problems, very simple problems, from the time of the Greeks that we have been unable to solve. Google “odd perfect number” if my word alone is not enough. Despite all our advances, despite all the tools we have added to our mathematical toolbox, some problems remain completely outside our grasp. That is the important job of theoretical work, to fi nd new tools to add to the toolbox. We can become content believing all that we currently know is all that there is to know: perfect, beautiful and unmarred by complication. “Of course, we found calculus,” we want to say. “It’s so obvious (now)!” The truth is, though, that we do not know how much knowledge is out there. It is possible some technique as fundamental as calculus is still waiting to be discovered. Then, who knows what we might be capable of doing? Problems once thought impossible to even the brightest of our day might become the exercises in tomorrow’s textbooks. To horribly misquote “The Matrix”: We have yet to see how deep the rabbit hole goes.

MARK J. TERRILL THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

A spectator takes pictures of Space Shuttle Endeavour as it slowly moves along city streets on a 160-wheeled carrier, Friday, in Los Angeles.

Space Shuttle Endeavor rolls into its new LA home BY CHRISTOPHER WEBER THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LOS ANGELES — It was supposed to be a slow but smooth journey to retirement, a parade through city streets for a shuttle that logged millions of miles in space. But Endeavour’s final mission turned out to be a logistical headache that delayed its arrival to its museum resting place by about 17 hours. After a 12-mile weave past trees and utility poles that included thousands of adoring onlookers, flashing cameras and even the filming of a TV commercial, Endeavour arrived at the California Science Center Sunday to a greeting party of city leaders and other dignitaries that had expected it many hours earlier. Endeavour was still inching toward a hangar on the grounds of the museum mid-Sunday afternoon. “It’s like Christmas!” said Mark Behn, 55, a member of the museum ground support team who watched the shuttle’s snail-like approach from inside the hangar. “We’ve

waited so long and been told so many things about when it would get here. But here it is, and it’s a dream come true.” Movers had planned a slow trip, saying the shuttle that once orbited at more than 17,000 mph would move at just 2 mph in its final voyage through Inglewood and southern Los Angeles. But that estimate turned out to be generous, with Endeavour often creeping along at a barely detectable pace when it wasn’t at a dead stop due to difficult-to-maneuver obstacles like tree branches and light posts. Despite the holdups, the team charged with transporting the shuttle felt a “great sense of accomplishment” when it made it onto the museum grounds, said Jim Hennessy, a spokesman for Sarens, the contract mover. “It’s historic and will be a great memory,” he said. “Not too many people will be able to match that, to say ‘we moved the space shuttle through the streets of Inglewood and Los Angeles.’” Transporting Endeavour crosstown was a costly feat with an esti-

mated price tag of $10 million, to be paid for by the science center and private donations. Late Friday, crews spent hours transferring the shuttle to a special, lighter towing dolly for its trip over Interstate 405. The dolly was pulled across the Manchester Boulevard bridge by a Toyota Tundra pickup, and the car company filmed the event for a commercial after paying for a permit, turning the entire scene into a movie set complete with special lighting, sound and staging. Saturday started off promising, with Endeavour 90 minutes ahead of schedule. But accumulated hurdles and hiccups caused it to run hours behind at day’s end. And despite the late problems the mood for most of the day was festive. Endeavour’s arrival in Los Angeles was a homecoming. It may have zipped around the Earth nearly 4,700 times, but its roots are solidly grounded in California. In 1991, it rolled off the assembly line in the Mojave Desert to replace Challenger, which blew up during liftoff in 1986.

DOONESBURY

Marriott, a marine biology major, was last heard from on Tuesday. At a vigil in her hometown of Westborough on Saturday night, her father choked back tears while speaking to the hundreds who had gathered, calling his daughter an angel and saying she’s now in heaven. A person named Seth Mazzaglia was listed in a short newspaper article as one of 18 graduates last December from the Portsmouth Police Department’s Citi-

zens Police Academy, a program that aims to bring citizens closer to police and raise public awareness about crime prevention techniques. The academy’s director, Sgt. Tom Grella, could not be reached for comment Sunday. Mazzaglia was being held at the Strafford County House of Correction in Dover on Sunday. It was unclear whether he had an attorney, but Young said she expected him to have one appointed in time for Monday’s hearing.

No rise in promiscuity after HPV vaccine BY LINDSEY TANNER THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CHICAGO — Shots that protect against cervical cancer do not make girls promiscuous, according to the fi rst study to compare medical records for vaccinated and unvaccinated girls. The researchers didn’t ask girls about having sex, but instead looked at “markers” of sexual activity after vaccination against the sexually transmitted human papillomavirus, or HPV. Specifically, they examined up to 3 years of records on whether girls had sought birth control advice; tests for sexually transmitted diseases or pregnancy; or had become pregnant. Very few of the girls who got the shots at age 11 or 12 had done any of those over the next 3 years, or by the time they were 14 or 15. Moreover, the study found no difference in rates of those markers compared with unvaccinated girls. The study involved nearly 1,400 girls enrolled in a Kaiser Permanente health plan in Atlanta. Results were published online Monday in Pediatrics.

Whether vaccination has any influence on similar markers of sexual activity in older teens wasn’t examined in this study but other research has suggested it doesn’t. The study is the fi rst to use medical outcomes data to examine consequences of HPV vaccination and the results are “comforting and reassuring,” said lead author Robert Bednarczyk , a researcher at Kaiser and Emory University. Both institutions paid for the study. HPV is the leading cause of cervical cancer and also has been linked with anal and oral cancers in women and men. The federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the American Academy of Pediatrics recommend HPV shots for girls and boys at age 11 or 12, before they have ever had sex. Three doses are generally recommended over six months. Some parents have raised concerns that the shots “are a license to have sex,” but the study bolsters evidence against that concern, said Dr. Elizabeth Alderman, an adolescent medicine specialist at The Children’s

Hospital at Montefiore in New York City. She was not involved in the study. A CDC study published in January suggested that the shots don’t promote sexual activity among older girls, but it relied on self-reporting, at ages 15 to 24. That’s a less reliable method than the new study, Alderman said. She has been a paid speaker for Merck & Co., which makes one of the two HPV vaccines sold in the United States, but said she has no current fi nancial ties to the company. In the new study, at least 90 percent of vaccinated and unvaccinated girls did not seek pregnancy tests, chlamydia tests or birth control counseling, markers that were considered surrogates for sexual activity during up to 3 years of follow-up. Two in each group became pregnant. Chlamydia, a common sexually transmitted disease, was diagnosed in one vaccinated girl and three unvaccinated girls. Three of the study’s four coauthors reported having done previous research funded by Merck.

Locals pass a roped-off area where officials search for the body of Elizabeth “Lizzi” Marriott on Saturday.

Student’s body still missing in NH DOVER, N.H. — The search for the body of a 19-year-old University of New Hampshire student was suspended Sunday ahead of the arraignment for a martial arts instructor active in community theater who’s been charged in her death, a prosecutor said. A ground and water search on and around Peirce Island in Portsmouth, N.H., was put on hold Sunday, Senior Assistant Attorney General Jane Young said. She said officials will discuss the next “viable step” in the search on Monday, the same day 29-year-old Seth Mazzaglia of Dover is arraigned in connection with the death of Elizabeth “Lizzi” Marriott. Mazzaglia was charged Saturday with second-degree murder, but Marriott’s body has not been located. Marriott was from Westborough, Mass., and had been living with an aunt in Chester, N.H., and commuting to the university in Durham. Mazzaglia and Marriott met last summer when both were working at a Target store in Greenland, N.H., Marriott’s aunt, Rebecca Tyning, told the Worcester Telegram & Gazette. Young confirmed they knew each other, but she declined to say whether they worked together.

‘30 Rock’ uses election to parody Fey-Palin dynamic SAMANTHA KIESEL Editor-in-chief

you know why “30 Rock” is so great? Because it mixes real life happenings and translates them to hilarious, comedic television. From tackling Tracy Morgan’s real-life gay slur scandal, to referencing NBC’s executive issues, to now emulating what happened to Tina Fey when she parodied Sarah Palin on “Saturday Night Live,” “30 Rock” rarely leaves a pebble unturned. In last Thursday’s episode, Mitt Romney’s actual running mate, Paul Ryan, had to drop out of the race because he was actually born in Kenya (which is funny in itself). Romney then chose Gov. Dunston, a Tracy Jordan doppelganger, which made the public demand Tracy to play him. From there we had a perfectly executed show, underlining what it meant for the Republican Party to have an unintelligent VP candidate. Sound familiar? Not only did it mirror the Sarah Palin-Tina Fey relationship, it also brought attention to the election that is three weeks away. That makes great pop culture television, which is a shame because only a mere 3 million people watch this show weekly. It’s a sad realization that there are only 11 episodes left of what I consider the best comedy show on television (however, I can’t lie that “Modern Family” has been spot on this season). The biggest disappointments in the comedy world have been “Parks and Recreation” and “How I Met Your Mother.” As much as I am yearning to laugh, “Parks” has just not done it for me yet this sea-

son. It’s bland and dull. Leslie Knope and company need to spice it up a bit. And as for “How I Met Your Mother,” if this isn’t the last season of the series, I’m not sure how much longer I can take this. Although, the latest episode where Lily and Marshall tried to find a nanny was the best so far this season. For me, the drama series have had the strongest season thus far, throwing curve balls and twists in the first and second episodes. Anyone who saw what was coming at the end of the second episode of “Homeland” must have seen the script beforehand, because that has been this season’s biggest twist. Not to mention, “Dexter,” “Revenge,” and new shows like “Revolution” have me wanting to come back every week.

This weeks’ recap: I mentioned earlier that “Modern Family” was having a spot-on season, that was mainly because of Wednesday’s double feature when we got to see Cam and Mitch interact with lesbians, Phil makes a book called “Phil’s-osophy” and Gloria deals with her pregnancy. For me, watching Cam and Mitch do the venn diagram with straight and gay couples was one of the funniest things the show has done in a long time. The only issue I have had with the show, and something they still haven’t changed, is the moral lesson or how every episode wraps up with everyone being happy, it’s so “Full House.” Fortunately, the writers have yet to lose their comedy touch and I find myself laughing consistently throughout the whole episode, all four seasons. That’s a rarity for any comedy that has been on longer than two seasons.

Tina Fey, left, and Alec Baldwin talk on the set of the comedy series “30 Rock” in New York. This season will be the show’s last, and it only has 11 episoes to go. Editor-in-Chief Samantha Kiesel says Thursday’s episode used Tracy Morgan to mirror the Tina Fey-Sarah Palin dynamic.

New show of the week: According to everyone and their brother, “Nashville” is this year’s best new drama, and after finally watching the pilot last Wednesday, I couldn’t agree more. The show has everything a great drama needs: dramatic conflict, multiple storylines meshing together and a great evil jerk who is going to be a homewrecker. Now, I’m pretty

sure this show is not going to be sweeping away at next year’s Emmy’s, but I can see it being a fun, juicy, drama. It reminds me a lot of “Revenge,” in the way that it is a little campy, but has some backbone to it.

What I am looking forward to this week: I can’t wait to get to my DVR so I am able to catch up

on the five shows I missed Sunday night. Supposedly, “Revenge” is going to be a game-changer for the rest of the season and there hasn’t been a week where I haven’t anxiously awaited to see what will happen to Dexter and Deb on “Dexter.” But this week is the first week where “Grey’s Anatomy” won’t be solely going off

of what happened in last season’s finale, so I’m excited to see what kind of tone the rest of the ninth season will have. And of course, I look forward to the next thing “30 Rock” is going to tackle in its final season. Until next time, I’m shutting this down.

Riot starts in Pakistani city to protest girl’s shooting BY ADIL JAWAD AND SEBASTIAN ABBOT THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

KARACHI, Pakistan — Tens of thousands rallied in Pakistan’s largest city Sunday in the biggest show of support yet for a 14-year-old girl who was shot and seriously wounded by the Taliban for promoting girls’ education and criticizing the militant group. The Oct. 9 attack on Malala Yousufzai as she was returning home from school in Pakistan’s northwest horrified people inside and outside the country. At the same time, it gave hope to some that the government would respond by intensifying its fight against the Taliban and its allies. But protests against the shooting have been relatively small until now, usually attracting no more than a few hundred

people. That response pales in comparison to the tens of thousands of people who held violent protests in Pakistan last month against a film produced in the United States that denigrated Islam’s Prophet Muhammad. Demonstrations in support of Malala — and against rampant militant violence in the country in general — have also been fairly small compared with those focused on issues such as U.S. drone attacks and the NATO supply route to Afghanistan that runs through Pakistan. Right-wing Islamic parties and organizations in Pakistan that regularly pull thousands of supporters into the streets to protest against the U.S. have less of an incentive to speak out against the Taliban. The two share a desire to impose Islamic law in the country — even if

they may disagree over the Taliban’s violent tactics. Pakistan’s mainstream political parties are also often more willing to harangue the U.S. than direct their people power against Islamist militants shedding blood across the country — partly out of fear and partly because they rely on Islamist parties for electoral support. One of the exceptions is the political party that organized Sunday’s rally in the southern port city of Karachi, the Muttahida Quami Movement. The party’s chief, Altaf Hussain, criticized both Islamic and other mainstream political parties for failing to organize rallies to protest the attack on Malala. He called the Taliban gunmen who shot the girl “beasts” and said it was an attack on “the ideology of Pakistan.”

“Malala Yousufzai is a beacon of knowledge. She is the daughter of the nation,” Hussain told the audience by telephone from London, where he is in self-imposed exile because of legal cases pending against him in Pakistan. His party is strongest in Karachi. Many of the demonstrators carried the young girl’s picture and banners praising her bravery and expressing solidarity. The leaders of Pakistan’s main Islamic parties have criticized the shooting but have also tried to redirect the conversation away from Taliban violence and toward civilian casualties from U.S. drone attacks. Cyril Almeida, a columnist for Pakistan’s Dawn newspaper, said this type of “obfuscation” prevents Pakistan-

is from seeing “there is a continuum from the religious right to violent Islamism.” “The religious right creates an enabling environment for violent Islamism to recruit and prosper. And violent Islamism makes state and society cower and in doing so enhances the space for the religious right,” Almeida wrote in a column Sunday. Malala earned the enmity of the Pakistani Taliban for publicizing their behavior when they took over the northwestern Swat Valley, where she lived, and for speaking about the importance of education for girls. The group first started to exert its influence in Swat in 2007 and quickly extended its reach to much of the valley by the next year.

ILLINI DRIVE

Tune in to WPGU 107.1-FM at 6 p.m. to hear from the hosts of Illini Drive talk about Illinois’ blowout loss to Michigan. They’ll also sit down with volleyball head coach Kevin Hambly.

Volleyball bounces back to beat Spartans 3-2 BY ELIOT SILL STAFF WRITER

When Illinois dropped the first two sets of its match with Michigan State, its streak of consecutive sets lost was pushed to six — two full games’ worth. Its losing streak was on the verge of reaching five, which would put the Illini two games under .500 overall and four under in the conference.

They were facing No. 25 Michigan State, a team 11 games over .500 and hungry to end a twogame skid of its own, with more than 2,000 fans clamoring for them to do so. Though the past four games and two sets would have had some Illinois fans eyeing the panic button, the Orange and Blue kept their wits and delivered Sparty

a tough blow, rattling off three straight set victories to pry a win away from the Lady Spartans: 18-25, 23-25, 25-22, 25-16, 15-8. “When we went into the locker room after the first two sets, it was kinda cool, the vibe on the team was just: ‘We’re OK, we got this. We can win this,’” senior middle blocker Erin Johnson said. “So there wasn’t much doubt in

our minds, which I guess after being down 2-0 is a good thing. I think we were just confident that we could do it.” Johnson was Illinois’ sole senior for most of the game, as senior setter Annie Luhrsen, who had played every point for Illinois this season, was benched in favor of true freshman Alexis Viliunas. Illinois head coach Kevin Ham-

bly decided to make the move Thursday, pulling Viliunas out of what could have been used as a redshirt year to make her collegiate debut. It was a pressure-filled situation, but Viliunas quickly got her feet under her. “The first set I was a little nervous ... just because I didn’t wanna screw anything up,” Viliunas said. “But after a couple points I

realized that everything was fine and it was just normal volleyball, that’s all I had to do. But for the first few sets, it was definitely an eye-opener.” Viliunas had 49 assists and played with poise, Hambly said.She added 14 digs, which led to libero Jennifer Beltran— who

‘Atrocious’ defensive zone lets Wildcats sweep Illini

Coming off of an impressive weekend at the ACHA Showcase that saw wins over two ranked opponents, the Illinois hockey team had momentum. And in the first period of Friday’s game against Arizona, that momentum continued, as the Illini took a 1-0 lead and controlled play. For the rest of the weekend, however, the Illini (7-2-2) were lethargic and were swept in both games for the first time this season. “I think we tend to relax on this MICHAEL BOJDA THE DAILY ILLINI team,” head coach Nick Fabbrini Captain Austin Bostock (22) battles for the puck with Arizona’s Bryan Drazner (18) during Saturday night’s game at said. “We have a good period or a the Ice Arena.

“You can’t just go one-on-one in this league,” Teague said. “There’s 7-footers in the paint, so you got to make smart decisions.” Chicago currently has 17 players on its roster, while Cleveland has 20 players in camp. Opening Night rosters must be submitted to the NBA on Oct. 29. “You want to win all preseason games because you never know

and save a struggling Illinois offense that would finish with 134 yards of offense and just 13 yards in the second half. “I thought we had a good game plan,” he said. “I thought we ran the ball real well in the first half. The weather was a little bit tougher than in the second half, but you can’t just be running the ball the whole game. You have to be able to pass, and we weren’t able to do that.” O’Toole went 5-for-10 on the

day with 25 yards, but his two turnovers proved most costly. After Michigan scored right out of halftime, O’Toole threw an interception to Kenny Demens that would lead to another Michigan touchdown. Later in the quarter, when trying to avoid a sack to create some spark in Illinois’ stagnate offense, the Wolverines forced a fumble and turned it into another touchdown two plays later. A team that seems unable

to avoid the “snowball effect” again allowed things to get out of hand. “Just got to put everything together,” O’Toole said. “Got to run the ball and throw the ball well in the same game, not one or the other, so hopefully we can get a game where we have zero turnovers and run the ball well and passing the ball well.”

more Liz McMahon who balanced the attack with 18 kills on .406 hitting, adding another dynamic to the Illini attack beyond the swings of Birks and fellow redshirt freshman Ali Stark. “(McMahon) was exceptional,” Hambly said. “She was really almost unstoppable at times, going over the block. Lex (Viliunas) did a good job of setting her a good tempo and putting her in a seam and finding seams, and Lizzie did a good job of terminating.”

The middle block also feasted on Michigan State’s defense. While the Lady Spartans (15-5, 3-5 Big Ten)outblocked the Illini (9-9, 3-5) 8-6, Illinois’ two middle blockers, Johnson and sophomore Anna Dorn, combined for 16 kills and no hitting errors on 30 swings, good for a .533 percentage. Illinois had early leads throughout the game. It led the first set 16-13 before losing after a 12-2 Michigan State run. In the second set, the Illini allowed a

4-0 run after being up 18-17 to submit control of the set to the Lady Spartans.Illinois gave up six straight points after leading 18-10 in the third set, but regained control and finished out on top. In the final two sets, Illinois jumped on Michigan State and stayed on them, with an 11-3 lead to begin set four (25-16) and a 13-6 lead to begin set five (15-8).

lost a fumble in place of Scheelhaase, and the Illini managed just 134 yards of production to Michigan’s 527. “We’re just not playing very good offensively right now,” center Graham Pocic said. “It’s just frustrating when you can’t put it all together and can’t even put any points on the scoreboard.” The once highly regarded Illinois defense yielded another big game, marking the fi fth time the unit has given up over

30 points this season — all five were losses. The Illini also surrendered six plays of more than 20 yards, including ones of 71 and 63 yards. “This isn’t what we expected coming into the season, and I think I can speak for everybody when I say that,” Buchanan said. The trying 45-point defeat is arguably the lowest point in head coach Tim Beckman’s inaugural season, leaving the Illini entering the bye week with many ques-

tions and very few answers on both sides of the ball. Illinois, Minnesota and Indiana remain the only Big Ten teams without a conference victory. “Obviously, these kids know that we’re running out of time,” defensive coordinator Tim Banks said. “So we’ve got to get this ship righted and we’ve got to get it righted quickly.”

The Illinois women’s crosscountry team will look at this weekend as a learning experience. Prior to the Pre National meet in Louisville, Ky., head coach Jeremy Rasmussen said his team’s goal was to fi nish in the top 10. But Illinois was taken aback by the caliber of competition it faced, Rasmussen said. The Illini fi nished 17th out of 38 teams at Pre Nationals on Saturday and only placed one runner in the top 100 at Friday’s Bradley Classic Cross Country Meet. “I think the team did OK,” Rasmussen said, referring to the Bradley Classic. “That group is really young and inexperienced and I think that they learned some things during the course of that meet and were able to take something from it to better themselves in the future.” Junior Rachel Irion led the Illini Friday at Bradley, fi nishing with a 6K time of 22 minutes, 36 seconds and placing 73rd overall . The rest of the Bradley group included juniors Stephanie Brown and Amanda Zamora , sophomore Collette Falsey and freshmen Natalie Wynn and Michelle Frigo, who all fi nished the race in under 25 minutes. At the Pre National meet, senior Courtney Yaeger fi nished fi rst for the Illini for the third race in a row. She ran a personal-best 6K time of 21:00 and placed 48th overall . Freshman Amanda Fox followed close

behind, fi nishing the race in 21:33 to place 98th overall. “I think our youth showed up a little bit,” said Rasmussen “we had some people race good solid races but we didn’t race well as a team. It was our fi rst time racing on that big a stage and in the end I think we just beat ourselves.” “As far as our fi rst major race on a national scale, it was a good learning experience, but we can always do better,” Yaeger said. The meet was won by topranked Florida State, which beat second place Oregon by a sizable 15-point margin. “I think we did well, but we have a lot to work on after this race,” Fox said. “We can’t run with fear, and we can’t let our nerves get to us before these races, we just have to run fearless.” The race was so close that the difference between the fi rst- and fi fth-place fi nishers for Illinois was less than a minute. “We wanted to be top 10,” added Yaeger. “But I don’t think we were ready for that kind of a race. A race like that is actually quite different from the other races we’ve been in. The dynamics are just different, and it is a little nerve racking the fi rst time. ... We just have to learn from it.” “The team was defi nitely nervous” Rasmussen added. “But it’s OK as long as we get it out of our system now and learn from it and become a better team from it here in the near future.”

Men’s cross-country sets several personal bests against stiff competition in Madison BY DAN ESCALONA CONTRIBUTING WRITER

Against Illinois’ toughest competition this season, the men’s cross-country team held its ground and managed to come away with a 24th-place fi nish at Friday’s Wisconsin Adidas Invitational in Madison, Wis. The Illini were able to place ahead of three nationally ranked programs and five Big Ten schools. “I would say that the group defi nitely met the expectations we set out for the Wisconsin meet,” said head coach Jake Stewart. “We executed our race plan as well as we could, and we made a lot of strides in the right direction following the Notre Dame meet. Overall, it was very good showing for us.” The Illini were led once again by Hunter Mickow, who fi nished fi rst among Illinois runners with a 43rd-place fi nish with a time of 23 minutes, 58 seconds in the 8K race. For the second consecutive meet, Mickow set a personal record . Improved times were common for Illinois runners, as Jannis Topfer also set a personal record with a time of 24:13 and Ian Barnett with 24:23 . “I was very pleased with our top five guys in the meet. They all ran very well as group, allowing each other to all PR at the meet,” Stewart said. “I was impressed with Ian Barnett. Ian ran the way he has the potential to do, and I thought his performance will be a big step forward for him.”

Stanford placed first, and Iona and Oklahoma finished second and third. Following the Notre Dame Invitational, Stewart wanted the time gap between the top five finishers to be considerably less. During the practices leading up to this weekend’s meet, the team put emphasis on maintaining a 10- to 15-second gap between the top five Illinois runners. Stewart said the team at one point, for a 1,500-meter span, was all within 10 seconds of each other, reducing the time gap between the top finishers. A major storyline heading into the Wisconsin meet was whether Jordan Hebert would improve on his uncharacteristic performance two weeks ago. He finished fourth for Illinois with a time of 24:35, placing 172nd. Stewart said he was impressed with Hebert’s ability to get himself into shape after a bout with strep throat, having to run while on antibiotics. “Jordan made some great strides in the right direction, even though he still is not at 100 percent,” Stewart said. Meanwhile, a contingent of Illinois runners competed at the Bradley Classic in Peoria, Ill. The Illini were led by Jim Riddle, who fi nished in fi rst place with a personal record of 24:11. Sam Telfer also provided a strong performance for Illinois, placing in 19th place while setting a personal best.

Soccer drops 2 games despite rest period BY GINA MUELLER STAFF WRITER

The Illinois women’s soccer team added two more conference losses to its record this weekend. Illinois was well-rested after having last weekend off because of a Thursday night game the previous week. But the rest period proved to be more of a disadvantage for the Illini, as they started off the weekend with a 3-0 loss against Minnesota. Golden Gophers standout Taylor Uhl — who leads the Big Ten in goals and points — netted the first and last goals of the match in the 27th and 74th minutes, respectively. Illi-

The ball sailed just over Illini goalkeeper Steph Panozzo’s hands and into

the back of the net. Though disappointment could be read across the Illini’s faces, the mentality never changed. “Our attitude the whole game was, ‘Let’s win,’” senior Niki Read said. “I wouldn’t say we were attacking any more than we had been because the whole game we were trying to get (a) score.” The two teams remained tied at the end of regulation. “(Rayfield) pointed out some of our earlier opportunities and said, ‘Hey, we will get those again and we’ll finish them and let’s finish them off in the first 10 (minutes),” Holden said. “We definitely didn’t

want to do two 10-minute periods, so she tried to tell us to get one in early.” But Wisconsin scored first at the beginning of the second period to defeat Illinois 2-1. “We’ve got to put this weekend behind us,” Rayfield said. “The bigger challenge will be for us to do the things that psychologically we need to do to recover from this, but also to put ourselves in the right state of mind to go forward and really battle for the rest of the season.”

Women’s golf places 8th of 12 at invitational Illinois drops 3 spots during 2nd day of contest BY ALEX ORTIZ CONTRIBUTING WRITER

AP FILE PHOTO

In this Sept. 15, 2012, file photo, Kansas head coach Charlie Weis, bottom center, talks to his players during the second half of an NCAA college football game against TCU in Lawrence, Kan. Things are hardly off to the start that Weis expected in his first season at Kansas. The team was even criticized by a graphic published in the University Daily Kansan, prompting the following response from Weis on Twitter: “Team slammed by our own student newspaper. Amazing! No problem with opponents paper or local media. You deserve what you get! But, not home!”

SHOUTOUT TO...

Daily Kansan toes line between journalist, fan JAY BENSAL Sports columnist

Oct. 5, ahead of its matchup against in-state rival Kansas State, The University Daily Kansan, University of Kansas’ student newspaper, published an article with a graphic titled “Road Kill Ahead,” which depicted a Jayhawk desperately clinging to a goalpost being carried by a muscular Kansas State Wildcat. That morning, Kansas head coach Charlie Weis sounded off on Twitter: “Team slammed by our own school newspaper. Amazing! No problem with opponents paper or local media. You deserve what you get! But, not home!” In the ensuing debate, polarizing views emerged. The first sided with the Kansas football team, calling this prediction premature and insulting. The second defended the piece as within the paper’s First Amendment

rights. To me, the events and debate that followed raised a few interesting points of student media. (Note: Kansas State won the game 56-16, but only pulled away after a strong first half showing from Kansas.) You’re probably thinking, “Oh great, a student writing in support of other student journalists.” But after reading the accompanying article, I believe the graphic detracted from the original story, which was about the team’s full-contact practices throughout the week. The story was better served by artwork that complemented it, instead of the graphic that made itself the focal point. This being said, I understand its tenability in the eyes of the Daily Kansan staff — its visual was based on the matchup’s track record and relevant — as the Wildcats have dominated the past three Sunflower Showdowns. The second chapter of this saga was a closed-door meeting before the football team’s weekly press conference, one that included Katy Lonergan, who serves as the team’s communication

director, and the reporter of that story, Blake Schuster. The Daily Kansan reported that Lonergan made an effort to warn Schuster about possible negativity toward him as a result of his article and the accompanying graphic. Schuster then interpreted this meeting as an attempt to interfere with his work and single him out, while Lonergan said she would have done the same for any reporter. What really happened? Who knows. Looking back, what’s to be made of all of this? Without a doubt, the Daily Kansan is a newspaper by students and for the community. In fact, it receives part of its funding from a fee charged to all university students. Simply because of school pride, it’s possible that the very designers who created this art also wanted to be proved wrong as journalists so they could celebrate a possible win as students. They weren’t absolved of their desire for Kansas to emerge victorious just because of their roles as journalists. Would you be?

However, because of this role, they felt obligated to report the truth to their readers, and not to play the role of cheerleaders-in-print. They were walking the very fine line between being students and being reporters, and were forced to choose between the two. What resulted was not what any member of their staff could have imagined. As for Weis, supporting his players was the right move. But while he, and many others, believe the Daily Kansan was out of line with its coverage of his team, it also highlighted an important truth at many state schools with floundering big-name athletic programs — that teams can’t always count on a bastion of support from their fan base when the losses pile up. Student newspapers’ changes in attitude to being the teams’ critics can take place anywhere in the country — it’s just that this one turned out differently.

After two solid rounds at the Hoosier Fall Invitational in Florence, Ind., the Illinois women’s golf team fell from fifth place on Day One to eighth at the end of play Sunday. The Illini tallied rounds of 309 and 304 but shot 325 to finish the invitational. “We were disappointed where we finished,” assistant coach Jackie Szymoniak said. “We made some unforced errors. We are devising our practice plan for the next week and a half.” The tournament was marred by excessive winds, which made for difficult course management throughout the weekend. While the conditions were similar to those at local courses, they turned out to be more of a hindrance for the Illini. “I would have thought that would have worked in our favor,” Szymoniak said. Sophomore Samantha Postillion finished tied for 20th and led the team individually with a score of 15-over-par. Her best round was the second with a 2-over-par 74. “(In) the second round, I started hitting a lot of solid shots ... and that really got my confidence up,” Postillion said. “My whole game was kind of OK. Overall, I think if we can put in more time into practice in the next two weeks, then that will help us to improve.” Pimploy Thirati and Ember Schuldt were the next best individual finishers, tying for 26th and 31st, respectively. Schuldt finished the first two rounds with scores of 74 and 75, recording six birdies through 36 holes. But in the third round, she shot an 85. Sophomores Jacqueline Calamaro and Michelle Mayer and senior Crystal Smith rounded out Illinois’ leaderboard. Calamaro finished the competition 26-over, Mayer with 29-over and Smith was 30-over. Head coach Renee Slone knows what she will emphasize in practice this week. “Short game, short game, short game,” she said. “We’re sitting in a point now where something needs to change so that we can do better moving forward.”

Tigers beat Yankees 3-0, up 2 games in AL championship Yankees manager Girardi ejected from game on his 48th birthday after arguing with second base umpire BY HOWIE RUMBERG THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK — Aníbal Sánchez and the Detroit Tigers made the plays, got a favorable call from an umpire and took advantage of their few chances at the plate. The reward: a commanding lead in the AL championship series, and a trip home with their ace ready to start. Sánchez shut down a Yankees lineup minus injured Derek Jeter, and Detroit won without any drama, beating New York 3-0 Sunday for a 2-0 cushion. Yankees starter Hiroki Kuroda pitched perfect ball into the sixth inning. But the slumping New York hitters looked lost a day after their captain broke his ankle in the 12th inning of a 6-4 loss. Making his second postseason start, Sánchez pitched three-hit ball deep into the game to make Tigers manager Jim Leyland’s handling of a bullpen without struggling closer José Valverde a lot easier. The Tigers scored twice in the eighth after second base umpire Jeff Nelson missed a call on a two-out tag at second base. Yankees manager Joe Girardi argued and was ejected on his 48th birthday. Game 3 in the best-of-seven series is

Tuesday night in Detroit, with reigning AL MVP Justin Verlander starting for the Tigers against Phil Hughes. Verlander went 2-0 in the division series versus Oakland, including a four-hit shutout with 11 strikeouts in the decisive Game 5. The Tigers led 1-0 in the eighth and had Omar Infante on first with two outs. Austin Jackson singled, and when Infante took a wide turn at second, right fielder Nick Swisher threw behind him. Robinson Cano made a swipe tag as Infante made a head-first dive back to second. Cano missed Infante’s arm but brushed his body, replays clearly showed. But Nelson called Infante safe. Cano and Girardi pleaded the call to no avail. Boone Logan replaced Kuroda and gave up an RBI single to pinch hitter Avisail Garcia to make it 2-0. Girardi returned to lift Logan for Joba Chamberlain, and then he remained on the field to resume the argument.

Football columnist

NN ARBOR, Mich. — The last time Illinois was embarrassed 45-0 on the road, Ron Turner was coaching in what turned out to be his last season with Illinois. The rebuilding process that takes place with being a new coach is a multi-year commitment — especially when Ron Zook failed to adequately replenish the roster on an annual basis for current head coach Tim Beckman to take over. Therein lies most of the problems the Illini are experiencing in regards to lack of depth. But the cupboard was not completely bare when Beckman arrived in Champaign — particularly on the defense. Michigan’s 45-0 thrashing at Michigan Stadium on Saturday was the Illini’s fi fth loss of 17 points or more this season, and it was so unwatchable that most of the over 100,000 fans at the Big House disappeared in the third quarter. After listening to Beckman and the Illinois players made available for interviews, the sense of disappointment and confusion couldn’t have been stronger. “I’m at a loss for words. I don’t really understand why we’re playing the way that we’re playing,” defensive end Michael Buchanan said. “I’m probably just as confused as anybody else.” The defensive unit is by far the most puzzling one, and there continues to be no answers as to why it’s not performing the way it was supposed to heading into the season. After two straight losses, a players-only meeting seemed to be what the defense needed to get fi red up to play against Wisconsin. For three quarters, the fi re was there, but it evaporated in the fourth quarter. On Saturday in Ann Arbor,

the Illini started with the ball and gained 32 yards on eight plays. They had success running the ball before punting it to the Wolverines. On Michigan’s fifth play from scrimmage, quarterback Denard Robinson tossed a short pass to wide receiver Jeremy Gallon, who slashed through the Illinois defense untouched for a 71-yard touchdown. Thirty-eight points and 442 yards later, the confidence this once-proud defense had last year and in this season’s fi rst game doesn’t seem to be there. Regardless of the coaching changes that occurred, the defense has players projected to play on Sundays, and that alone should be enough to keep a steady “bend but don’t break” mentality. As everyone has seen all season, that hasn’t been the case. Every Monday, Beckman acknowledges that the coaching staff looked at the fi lm, and it saw what the team needed to fi x. Problem is, the same thing has happened in all five losses. What needs to happen? That’s anybody’s guess. Sherlock Holmes himself may not be able to solve this mystery. What is known is five games remain, and Illinois has a much-needed bye this week. Michigan used its bye week to regroup and shore up some holes it had during nonconference play. The Wolverines responded by trouncing the Boilermakers and the Illini in back-to-back weeks. It’s not as if Michigan was playing Alabama and LSU in consecutive weeks, but the team did seem to learn something from its bye week. Illinois needs to do the same.

SCHEDULE

ANN ARBOR, Mich. — The highlight for Michigan against Illinois, and there were many to choose from Saturday at the Big House, was a 49-yard scamper by Denard Robinson that extended the Wolverine’s lead to 24-0 just minutes into the second half. Any doubts that the No. 25 Wolverines hadn’t solidified the win against the Illini were quickly erased, as Michigan’s pummeling of Illinois continued throughout the afternoon. A gray, dreary, October sky hung suspended over Ann Arbor, Mich., as Michigan shutout Illinois 45-0. On first-and-10 and Michigan barely in Illinois territory, Robinson took the snap from shotgun formation and faked the handoff before rushing up the middle, deeking right, stopping on a dime and cutting to the left sideline for six points. Robinson finished the day with 134 yards off 11 carries and 7-for-11 for 159 yards passing. He accounted for four of Michigan’s touchdowns, two of which came through the air and two more on the ground. “He’s a very good football player and one I guess we didn’t defend well enough because he had a spectacular football game,” Illinois head coach Tim Beckman said. Michigan (4-2, 2-0 Big Ten) followed its 44-13 victory over Purdue last week with a convincing win for the second straight week; Illinois (2-5, 0-3) solidified its role as doormats of the Big Ten with its fourth consecutive loss. Robinson’s 49-yard run came after exiting the game with 2:15 remaining in the first quarter, when he ran off the field in a manner that suggested that his right wrist was bothering him and was examined by Michigan’s trainers on the sideline. The injury didn’t appear to linger long into the game, and Robinson down-played it after the game as being nothing more than an aggrieved funny bone. “It was just a boo-boo,” Robinson said. “Everybody gets hurt. It didn’t bother me at all.” Only time will tell if Robinson’s injury is more stark than Robinson let on — “Boo-Boo” Gate, anyone? — but it didn’t appear to be much of a factor against Illinois. Illinois defensive coordinator Tim Banks said the game plan was

Louisiana Tech Sept. 22 - L, 52-24 Penn State Sept. 29 - L, 35-7 Wisconsin Oct. 6 - L, 31-14

to add an extra defender up front to pressure Robinson. He also noted that Michigan changed its looks compared to the Wolverine’s three previous games. “He presents multiple issues just in terms of having to put one more guy in the box,” Banks said after the game. “Obviously we didn’t do a good job of containing him. … They used a little bit more to the split end rather than the tight end, which obviously you’ve got to give those guys some credit.” Robinson, who last week became the Big Ten’s all-time quarterback rushing leader with 3,905, amassed 10,000 of total offense Saturday to become the eighth player in conference history to accumulate that type of yardage. He pulled even with Mike Hart for the third-most rushing touchdowns in Michigan history with 41. Robinson entered Saturday’s game having thrown eight interceptions — four of which came against Notre Dame on Sept. 22 — on 115 pass attempts, but for the second straight week, he made it through the game without an aerial turnover. “We assessed, probably after Notre Dame a little bit, I think we all did, where we were,” Michigan head coach Brady Hoke said. “I think it was some of the game plan. I think we were determined that we were going to run the football and then in it was the passing game, the play-action part of it ... that he felt most comfortable with.” Robinson and the Michigan played with a shortened field for much of the day, including late in the first half when he picked up 33 yards on a designed run to bring the ball to Illinois’ 10-yard line. Three plays later, he surveyed the field, saw nothing and ran it in for the touchdown to increase the game to a three-score advantage with just under five minutes left in the first half. Michigan’s Heisman hopeful accounted for 287 yards. The rest of Michigan’s offense totaled 240 yards. “He’s really fast, and he’s a really patient runner,” defensive end Michael Buchanan added. “He waits until he finds the seam and he hits it. Once he gets in the open field, it’s extremely tough to catch him.”

Bye Week: Illinois’ offense is last in the Big Ten in scoring, and the defense allows the second-most points in the conference. The punt return unit is 117th out of 120 FBS teams with a 2.1 yards-per-return average. The lack of success in those three phases gives the Illini a lot to work on during the bye week in preparation for their five remaining games. Also, the off week provides Illinois quarterback Nathan Scheelhaase time to heal from a concussion he suffered in Saturday’s loss to Michigan.

Giants bring down 49ers in 26-3 victory BY ANTONIO GONZALEZ THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MARCIO JOSE SANCHEZ THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Alex Smith (11) is sacked by New York Giants outside linebacker Mathias Kiwanuka (94) in San Francisco on Sunday. The Giants won 26-3 in this rematch of the 2011 NFC championship game, which the Giants won 20-17 in overtime. New York put a stop to San Francisco’s winning streak, as the Giants had outscored the Bills and Jets by a combined 79-3 the last two weeks.

SAN FRANCISCO — The New York Giants gave the San Francisco 49ers another reason to simmer. Antrel Rolle intercepted two passes by Alex Smith, Prince Amukamara picked off another, and the Giants shut down San Francisco in a 26-3 victory over the 49ers on Sunday in a rematch of last season’s NFC championship game. After outscoring the Bills and Jets by a combined 79-3 the last two weeks, the 49ers (4-2) met their match again with Eli Manning and New York’s top team. No overtime needed this time, and not much of Manning either. Manning threw for 193 yards and one touchdown, Ahmad Bradshaw ran for 116 yards and a score, and New York (4-2) rode a dominant defense and four fields by Lawrence Tynes to hand outspoken 49ers coach Jim Harbaugh the most lopsided loss of his tenure. What a San Francisco treat. The Giants grinded out a 20-17 overtime win at rainsoaked Candlestick Park on Jan. 22, capitalizing on two fumbles by fill-in returner Kyle Williams en route to another Super Bowl title over the Patriots. All week some San Francisco players talked about “unfinished business,” and Harbaugh added to the hype when he fired back a strongly worded statement criti-

cizing Giants offensive coordinator Kevin Gilbride for saying All-Pro defensive end Justin Smith often “gets away with murder” holding linemen. For all the hoopla, the rematch was never close. Amukamara’s interception in the second quarter started a surge of New York offense. Smith, who wore tape around his sprained middle finger, lofted the pass too high and allowed Amukamara to leap underneath the ball before tight end Delanie Walker even had a chance at the Giants 33. At one point in the first half, Manning completed eight consecutive passes for 142 yards and had the usually stout San Francisco defense out of sorts. Domenik Hixon caught passes of 39 and 16 yards on consecutive third downs, and Victor Cruz followed with a 6-yard touchdown catch and his usual salsa dance in the end zone to give the Giants a 7-3 lead in the second quarter. New York’s next drive stalled and Tynes kicked a 34-yard field goal to go ahead 10-3. Tarell Brown blocked a 40-yard attempt by Tynes, San Francisco took over with 8 seconds left before half and wildcat quarterback Colin Kaepernick completed a 36-yard pass to Mario Manningham — the former Giant — before David Akers missed wide left from 52 yards as time expired.

Lions rally back for late road win over Eagles BY ROB MAADDI THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

PHILADELPHIA — Nnamdi Asomugha sat at his locker stall in full uniform with his head down long after the Philadelphia Eagles blew one they had in their grasp. It’ll be a long bye week for this turnover-prone team. Matthew Stafford rallied desperate Detroit back from a 10-point fourth-quarter deficit, Jason Hanson kicked a 45-yard field goal in overtime and the Lions beat the Eagles 26-23 on Sunday. “This is pretty bad because this was a big game for us,” said Asomugha, the two-time All-Pro cornerback. “We lost last week and going into a bye this hurts a lot because it would have helped us. If we can’t win a game like that, we have to go back to the drawing board. We have to close out a game like that.” A defense that held Stafford and Calvin Johnson in check for 3 1/2 quarters collapsed at the end for the second straight week, and the Eagles (3-3) enter the bye with consecutive late losses. Ben Roethlisberger led Pitts-

burgh on a long drive that ended with a final-second field goal for a 16-14 win last Sunday. “They wanted it more. We blew it,” cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie said. Stafford led Detroit to 17 points in the last 10 minutes to force overtime, throwing a TD pass and running for a score. He finished with 311 yards passing, one TD and one interception. The comeback kept Lions (2-3) from a 1-4 start a year after opening 5-0 en route to their first playoff appearance since 1999. “It takes lot of heart,” Stafford said. “It would have been a lot easier to just pack it in. This team has lot of fight. We didn’t play great. We did on defense, not on offense. Every guy in that locker room didn’t stop playing and that’s what got us the win.” Michael Vick threw for 311 yards and two TDs, but he also had two interceptions and a botched snap led to another lost fumble. The Eagles now have 17 turnovers in six games, including 13 by Vick on eight picks and five fumbles. “This is going to hurt for a long time,” Vick said. “We put

ourselves in position to win and didn’t finish.” Down 23-13 after Vick’s 70-yard TD pass to Jeremy Maclin with 5:18 left, the Lions answered. Detroit had two shots from the Eagles 1 following a pass interference penalty on Colt Anderson with 13 seconds left in regulation. But Stafford misfired on both passes and Hanson kicked a 19-yard field goal to send it to overtime. “I don’t know what to tell you other than we have to do better,” coach Andy Reid said. “We’ve got to learn how to win football games. You have a 10-point lead with 10 minutes left, you have to learn how to finish.” The Lions sacked Vick on the first two plays of the extra quarter, forced a punt out of the end zone and started at midfield. Stafford hit Johnson for a 17-yard gain to the Eagles 27 on first-and-20. A few plays later, Hanson nailed the winner. “I was nervous,” Hanson said. “We needed it bad. We needed it to get our season on track.” Johnson had 135 yards receiving, but the All-Pro wide receiver still has no TD catches from Staf-

BALTIMORE — Eight yards deep in the end zone when he caught the kickoff, Jacoby Jones had an instant to decide: take a knee or run. He ran — all the way into the record book. “You know when you get that itch? I wanted to scratch it,” Jones said. “So I took it.” Jones tied an NFL record with a 108-yard kickoff return, and the Baltimore Ravens held off the Dallas Cowboys 31-29 Sunday for their 14th straight regular-season home win. The Cowboys amassed 481 yards against a crippled Baltimore defense and held the ball for more than 40 minutes. Dallas totaled 227 yards rushing, the most against the Ravens since the franchise arrived in Baltimore in 1996. It wasn’t enough. Jones’ return put the Ravens (5-1) ahead 24-13 in the third quarter, and Dallas (2-3) never got even against a defense that lost cornerbacks Lardarius Webb (right knee) and Jimmy Smith (lower leg strain), along with middle linebacker Ray Lewis (triceps). Webb could have an ACL tear, coach John Harbaugh said.

After Detroit closed within 16-13 in the fourth, the Eagles got their biggest play of the season when Vick connected with Maclin on a deep slant pass. It was Philadelphia’s first play for more than 49 yards all season.

No problem for the Lions. Stafford had found his groove. Stafford threw a 57-yard pass to Tony Scheffler to get deep in Eagles territory and then tossed a 17-yard pass to Nate Burleson to cut it to 23-20 with 3:32 left.

Jets ‘Ground-and-Pound’ offense leaves Colts in dust BY DENNIS WASZAK JR. THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

GAIL BURTON THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Dallas Cowboys running back Felix Jones rushes for a touchdown against the Baltimore Ravens in Baltimore on Sunday. “They threw a lot of haymakers at us,” Harbaugh said. “Our guys stepped up at the end and found a way to win the game.” After Dez Bryant scored on a 4-yard pass from Tony Romo with 32 seconds left to make it 31-29, the 2-point conversion pass zipped through the arms of the diving Bryant in the front left corner of the end zone. Dallas recovered the onside kick, but Dan Bailey was wide left on a 51-yard field goal try with :06 remaining. “I felt we fought really hard and well through a lot of different adversities in all three phases,” Cowboys coach Jason Garrett said. “(The Ravens) have been awfully good for a while. This team’s been awfully good in this place for a while. We gave them everything they could handle.” Ray Rice scored two touchdowns and Joe Flacco threw for a score to help the Ravens secure their fourth consecutive victory and enhance their grip on first place in the AFC North. Baltimore’s home winning streak is the longest current run in the NFL. Jones’ return tied the mark set by Ellis Hobbs of New England in 2007

and tied in 2011 by Randall Cobb of Green Bay. “To set the National Football League record for a kickoff return, in what was the difference in the game, is pretty special,” Harbaugh said. The score was essential to the Ravens, who mustered only 1 yard on three offensive plays in the third quarter. After Jones’ touchdown, the Cowboys launched an 80-yard march that ate up more than eight minutes. Romo connected with Bryant for 13 yards on a third-and-11 before throwing a 7-yard touchdown pass to Bryant to make it 24-20. Dallas followed with two strong defensive series, and a short punt by Baltimore preceded a 21-yard drive to a field goal by Bailey. Flacco then directed a 10-play, 73-yard march. A 31-yard completion to Anquan Boldin moved the ball to the Dallas 4, and Rice scored from the 1 to provide the Ravens an eight-point cushion. The Cowboys rallied, but could not complete the comeback. “At the end of the day, we’ve got to finish the game and we have to win the game,” Garrett said. “We didn’t do that.”

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — Shonn Greene hit the ground running — and just kept going. Rex Ryan’s “Ground-and-Pound” offense returned in a big way Sunday as Greene ran for a career-high 161 yards and three touchdowns on 32 carries to power the New York Jets to a 35-9 rout of Andrew Luck and the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday. “When you’re running the ball that well,” quarterback Mark Sanchez said, “you never want to stop.” Just about everything worked for the Jets as they rolled up 252 yards on the ground after struggling in the running game for weeks, Sanchez was solid and Tim Tebow made a few big plays. Even the Jets’ maligned defense was able to shut down Luck and the Colts as New York snapped a two-game slide at home that had many wondering if the season was about to spiral out of control. “We want to be a team no one wants to play,” Ryan said. “And, we’re on our way.” For a week, at least, Sanchez was in total control and the Jets (3-3) had their best overall performance — save for a handful of personal foul penalties — since an opening rout of Buffalo. After four straight games with less than 50 percent completion percentage, Sanchez finished 11 of 18 for just 82 yards, but had touchdown throws to Stephen Hill and Jason Hill. “Wins come in all shapes and forms,” Sanchez said. “I was proud of the way we were able to run the ball.” With the way the Jets, particularly Greene, performed behind an offensive line blasting open holes to run through, Sanchez didn’t need to air it out. “I think we can do it every week against any team,” Greene said. “It’s just a matter of us executing, not stopping ourselves and working hard during the week.” The frustrating thing for Indianapolis (2-3) was that New York did exactly what it expected. And the Colts still couldn’t do anything about the running game. “We wanted Sanchez to have to beat us with his arm,” cornerback Jerraud Powers said. “If we stopped the run, that was

what they were going to have to do. Whoever we play next week, that’s what they’re going to do. They’re going to run the ball until we stop it.” Indianapolis trailed 21-6 at halftime and couldn’t erase a big deficit for the second straight week after coming back from 18 points and beating Green Bay last Sunday for Bruce Arians’ first win while filling in for Chuck Pagano, hospitalized while being treated for leukemia. Luck finished 22 of 44 for 280 yards, two interceptions and a lost fumble on a day he misfired a handful of times. Luck was driving the Colts a possible touchdown with less than 7 minutes left, but Ellis Lankster ended that when he intercepted the rookie’s toss for Donnie Avery in the end zone. “It’s learning how to be consistent, and that’s something I’ve struggled with,” Luck said. “I think I played very poorly this week after a decent half of football last weekend. As a team, we have to learn to come out and consistently be good.” The Colts were missing sacks leader Robert Mathis and lost defensive end Cory Redding to an injured right knee in the first quarter. Indianapolis was also without leading rusher Donald Brown; replacement Vick Ballard had just 25 yards in his first NFL start. Tebow helped the Jets take a 21-6 lead just before halftime on a drive kept alive by some trickery. On fourth-and-11 from the Colts 40, the do-it-all backup quarterback — lined up as the punt protector — took the direct snap, stepped forward and tossed a jump pass to linebacker Nick Bellore, who rumbled 23 yards as the crowd at MetLife Stadium went wild. Three plays later, Tebow was at quarterback and ran 3 yards for a first down, setting up Sanchez’s 5-yard TD toss to Jason Hill with 27 seconds left. Tebow met Sanchez as he ran toward the sideline and the two leaped and bumped hips to celebrate the score. “We were very efficient, effective,” Tebow said. “We had some big runs, threw the ball really well in the red area and converted on third down. It was a pretty good day for us.”
