Does a piece of paper make you more American? Journalist discusses his life as undocumented immigrant in America BY JACQUELINE OGRODNIK CONTRIBUTING WRITER
José Antonio Vargas is a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist from the Philippines and has written for publications including the Washington Post, Huffington Post and The New York Times Magazine.

Urbana community members can now give feedback regarding encounters with the Urbana Police Department. The Illinois Police-Community Interaction Survey was released last week, offering community members the opportunity to rate their experiences with the department. According to a press release, the results of the survey will
help the Urbana Police Department, along with other police departments in the country, improve police procedures and approaches. The University of Illinois at Chicago’s Center for Research in Justice and Law is administrating the program. “For a long time, there has never been any real standardized, validated measures of police performances that deal with the quality of service being delivered to the community,”
said Dennis Rosenbaum, director of UIC’s Center for Research in Justice and Law and professor of Criminology and Justice. “Oftentimes, the trust and confidence that the community has on the police depends upon how officers and citizens interact when they do have encounters.” The research center will compile the results of the survey. Rosenbaum said the survey will

Board of Education approves 1-year contract for Champaign teachers union DAILY ILLINI STAFF REPORT
The Champaign School District and the Champaign Federation of Teachers have reached a contract agreement. On Monday, the Board of Education approved the ratified contract by CFT. “Everyone feels relieved it (has) been approved and now we can focus on serving
the kids in our district,” said Stephanie Stuart, community relations coordinator for the Champaign School District. The one-year agreement has four provisions: compensation, reduction in force/recall, retirement incentive and evaluation. Stuart added that salary was a sticking point for the board throughout.
The teachers’ contract ex pi re d on Ju ne 30. Negotiations between the two had been in progress since April. “I commend both of the Board of Education and CFT leadership for their dedication to reaching a fair contract,” said Superintendent Judy Wiegand.

RESEARCH LAB FROM PAGE 1A University Senates Conference, especially because of its promotion of cross-campus collaboration and high profile. Lynn Fisher, UIS campus senate chair, said the labs will provide research opportunities that previously did not exist. “There’s a potential opportunity for faculty research in a somewhat new setting,” she said. Burbules said the lab will have the opportunity to work on technical and nontechnical issues. “I’ve heard talk about Chicago school reform as one of the things that people up there might look at,” he said. Burbules envisions the lab as working on products that will help not only the city, but the state, country and world. The research will most likely follow the funding, Burbules said. “Over time they’re talking about a very large amount of money, maybe $500 million being raised and invested in this, but they don’t have anything like that yet,” he said. One concern that has arisen is the idea that by not building the lab in Urbana-Champaign, resources may be shifted away from the University. “We have a research park in Urbana. The whole point is that if you’re in the Chicago area, you have access to support and corporate partners that you don’t have access to down here — at least not to the same degree,” Burbules said. “Having a high-profile image for the University of Illinois in the Chicago area would be really beneficial to the institution.” Taking the lab to Chicago puts the University of Illinois in a highly visible location and gives it the opportunity to make a public impact. “Part of the interest in this from the Chicago standpoint is that it may be a way of taking an area of the city that is centrally located but could be rebuilt and revitalized with this research center as its hub,” Burbules said. That kind of gentrification, however, would cost hundreds of millions of dollars, according to Burbules. “The core of the idea is very ambitious,” he said. Lawrence Schook, vice president for research, has been invited by the Urbana-Champaign campus senate to the Nov. 5 meeting in order to discuss ideas about the concept of UI Labs in further detail. “Now that it looks like it maybe is going to take off, I think it’s important now to come back and talk to the governance bodies,” Burbules said. “That’s the next step that I’m invested in right now — making sure that there is consultation, information and feedback.”

POLICE FROM PAGE 1A provide data on the quality of police services instead of quantitative data. “Historically, police departments were being judged by few narrow indicators of performance such as crime rates and arrest rates,” he said. “The reality is that the community is very much interested in the quality of the police service.” The Urbana Police Department is one of about two dozen Illinois communities to participate in a statewide program, according to the press release. Rosenbaum said feedback from community members would be helpful for the research center to see how Illinois police officers are doing. “In the case of Urbana, we were interested in the larger agencies in Illinois, but also agencies where the leadership showed that they were progressive and interested in innovation in policing,” he said. “We certainly encourage people in the community to participate; I think the success of these efforts depend heavily upon the community’s recognition of the importance of this kind of information for improving police services and police-community relations.” Sylvia Morgan, assistant chief of police for the Urbana Police Department, said the survey will be conducted over the course of a few months, possibly through May. She said the duration will allow enough time for citizens to complete the form. The anonymous survey is sent to Urbana community members with police encounters, excluding violent crimes, and can be completed online or by phone. “No one has to worry about any type of confidentiality and things of that nature,” she said. “No one’s identity will be revealed in the survey.” Morgan said the Urbana Police Department is glad to participate in the survey and receive feedback regarding the quality of its policing strategies. “We always look for ways to change our way of doing or do things a little bit differently in order to be better perceived in the community,” she said.

Hospital confirms US Rep. being held for further evaluation BY SOPHIA TAREEN THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CHARLIE RIEDEL THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
An oil facility operates in Greensburg, Kan. Domestic crude oil production has risen significantly in recent years. Experts have attributed the increase to high prices and the use of hydraulic fracturing, also known as ‘fracking.’ Oil-producing states also have unemployment rates below the national average.
US crude oil output speeds up
Domestic producers tap new reserves, boost production BY JONATHAN FAHEY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — U.S. oil output is surging so fast that the United States could soon overtake Saudi Arabia as the world’s biggest producer. Driven by high prices and new drilling methods, U.S. production of crude and other liquid hydrocarbons is on track to rise 7 percent this year to an average of 10.9 million barrels per day. This will be the fourth straight year of crude increases and the biggest single-year gain since 1951. The boom has surprised even the experts. “Five years ago, if I or anyone had predicted today’s production growth, people would have thought we were crazy,” says Jim Burkhard, head of oil markets research at IHS CERA, an energy consulting firm. The Energy Department forecasts that U.S. production of crude and other liquid hydrocarbons, which includes biofuels, will average 11.4 million barrels per day next year. That would be a record for the U.S. and just below Saudi Arabia’s output of 11.6 million barrels. Citibank forecasts U.S. production could reach 13 million to 15 million barrels per day by 2020, helping to make North America “the new Middle East.”
The last year the U.S. was the world’s largest producer was 2002, after the Saudis drastically cut production because of low oil prices in the aftermath of 9/11. Since then, the Saudis and the Russians have been the world leaders. The United States will still need to import lots of oil in the years ahead. Americans use 18.7 million barrels per day. But thanks to the growth in domestic production and the improving fuel efficiency of the nation’s cars and trucks, imports could fall by half by the end of the decade. The increase in production hasn’t translated to cheaper gasoline at the pump, and prices are expected to stay relatively high for the next few years because of growing demand for oil in developing nations and political instability in the Middle East and North Africa. Still, producing more oil domestically, and importing less, gives the economy a significant boost. The companies profiting range from independent drillers to large international oil companies such as Royal Dutch Shell, which increasingly see the U.S. as one of the most promising places to drill. ExxonMobil agreed last month to spend $1.6 billion to increase its U.S. oil holdings. Increased drilling is driving economic growth in states such as North Dakota, Oklahoma, Wyoming, Montana and Texas, all of which have unemployment rates far below the national average of 7.8 percent. North Dakota is at 3 percent; Oklahoma, 5.2.
Businesses that serve the oil industry, such as steel companies that supply drilling pipe and railroads that transport oil, aren’t the only ones benefiting. Homebuilders, auto dealers and retailers in energy-producing states are also getting a lift. IHS says the oil and gas drilling boom, which already supports 1.7 million jobs, will lead to the creation of 1.3 million jobs across the U.S. economy by the end of the decade. “It’s the most important change to the economy since the advent of personal computers pushed up productivity in the 1990s,” says economist Philip Verleger, a visiting fellow at the Peterson Institute of International Economics. The major factor driving domestic production higher is a newfound ability to squeeze oil out of rock once thought too difficult and expensive to tap. Drillers have learned to drill horizontally into long, thin seams of shale and other rock that holds oil, instead of searching for rare underground pools of hydrocarbons that have accumulated over millions of years. To free the oil and gas from the rock, drillers crack it open by pumping water, sand and chemicals into the ground at high pressure, a process is known as hydraulic fracturing, or “fracking.” While expanded use of the method has unlocked enormous reserves of oil and gas, it has also raised concerns that contaminated water produced in the process could leak into drinking water.
The surge in oil production has other roots, as well: — A long period of high oil prices has given drillers the cash and the motivation to spend the large sums required to develop new techniques and search new places for oil. Over the past decade, oil has averaged $69 a barrel. During the previous decade, it averaged $21. — Production in the Gulf of Mexico, which slowed after BP’s 2010 well disaster and oil spill, has begun to climb again. Huge recent finds there are expected to help growth continue. — A natural gas glut forced drillers to dramatically slow natural gas exploration beginning about a year ago. Drillers suddenly had plenty of equipment and workers to shift to oil. The most prolific of the new shale formations are in North Dakota and Texas. Activity is also rising in Oklahoma, Colorado, Ohio and other states. Production from shale formations is expected to grow from 1.6 million barrels per day this year to 4.2 million barrels per day by 2020, according to Wood Mackenzie, an energy consulting firm. That means these new formations will yield more oil by 2020 than major oil suppliers such as Iran and Canada produce today. By the end of this year, U.S. crude output will be at its highest level since 1998 and oil imports will be lower than at any time since 1992, at 41 percent of consumption. “It’s a stunning turnaround,” Burkhard says.
Work-study program delays vets’ pay Prolonged waits for wages cause college veterans hardship BY DAN ELLIOTT THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
DENVER — Exasperated veterans who work part time for the Veterans Administration while attending college say their paychecks are sometimes weeks late, leaving them in trouble with bill collectors or having to borrow money to avoid eviction. The two-week paycheck is typically about $360, and can be vital to veterans raising families and juggling expenses. “It’s absolutely crucial,” said Neal Boyd, an Army veteran who has two children, attends Danville Area Community College in Illinois and works for the VA in the school’s career services office to help other veterans. The VA work-study program lets them work an average of up to 25 hours a week on the VA payroll if they are full-time or three-quarter-time college students. The program is separate from other GI Bill benefits such as tuition and textbook assistance and a housing allowance that varies by location. But veterans said those benefits don’t cover all their expenses, and they need a job to make ends meet. The veterans were paid a total of $25.7 million in fiscal year 2011, the most recent year for which statistics were available. They are paid the federal minimum wage, $7.25 an hour, or their state’s minimum wage, whichever is higher. The number of veterans in the program depends on the needs of their schools, and veterans qualify based on their financial need and other factors, the VA said. Veterans who want to join the program submit a contract to the VA for approval. More than 10,000 veterans are in the VA work-study program nationwide, but it’s difficult to pin down how widespread the paycheck delays are.

Jesse Jackson Jr. was back at the Mayo Clinic for an evaluation Tuesday and possibly a longer stay, nearly two months after being released for treatment of bipolar disorder at the Minnesota hospital, his father said Tuesday. “I don’t know how long he’s going to be there,” his father, civil rights leader Rev. Jesse Jackson, told The Associated Press. The hospital confirmed Tuesday that Jackson was back at the facility in Rochester, Minn., for a follow-up evaluation “to ensure he is on the path to properly manage his health.” The statement did not say much else. His father said his son was at the clinic for a doctor’s visit, and a family spokesman said he would issue a statement after the evaluation. The congressmen quietly went on medical leave in June, and his office released scant details until the Mayo Clinic confirmed nearly two months later that he had been treated for bipolar disorder and gastrointestinal issues. Jackson has made no public appearances since then. The only campaigning he’s done has been a recorded robocall to voters over the weekend where he asked for patience. But his wife, Councilwoman Sandi Jackson, his father and two fellow Democratic Illinois congressmen who visited him Monday have said they’ve encouraged him to take his time in coming back to work or the campaign.
VARGAS FROM PAGE 1A munities out of all the states. ... Really, my goal is to just go there, meet people and also try to figure out how we can build alliances, how we can make sure that we’re bringing in as many different people from as many different groups as possible to advocate for immigrant rights. Because immigrant rights is not just about Latinos and Asian people, it’s about also white people, black people — all Americans should have a say in this.
DI: Why did you decide to reintroduce yourself to America as an undocumented immigrant? JV: To be an undocumented
person in this country is to not have the legal documents to be here, but we are, after all, talking about pieces of paper. You know, I don’t, of course, undermine rights and legal nature of the law and all. I respect the law; that’s precisely why I came out and decided that I’m done lying. ... And I love and respect America ... I introduced myself as an undocumented American because that’s what I am. I’m a person in this country that doesn’t have the right papers ... to be here.
DI: What thoughts were running through your mind when your essay was published in The New York Times Magazine? JV: I was afraid. I didn’t know
what was going to happen, but I think once I decided that it was time to do this, you make a decision, and you just stick with it. It’s been hard — it’s been very hard — but I’m proud. I’m proud, and I am glad, and I am proud of the decision I made. ED ANDRIESKI THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Veterans Ashley Metcalf, left, and Morgan Sforzini look over their survey at the University of Colorado in Denver on DI: As a journalist, you’re continuOct. 12. Metcalf and Sforzini queried VA work-study students in several states and found that 48 percent said it usually ously reporting on one of the bigtakes two to four weeks to get their paychecks. Nearly 13 percent said it takes more than a month. gest issues that shapes this counhave been delayed at a processing center in St. Louis, one of four nationwide, because of a heavy workload and the loss of three workers. In a statement, the department said it hired more workers in St. Louis last month and now has six assigned to process work-study paper work. The St. Louis office cut the processing time for paychecks to five days, down from an average as high as 12 days in some months, the statement said. The St. Louis office handles work-study time cards and contracts from 19 states, mostly in the Midwest. The VA said it is investigating some individual cases and looking for other changes to speed up the checks. It said it wants to ensure that all veterans get their benefits on time. Two Colorado veterans who queried VA work-study students in several states say they found that 48 percent said it usually takes two to four weeks to get their checks.
Nearly 13 percent said more than a month. The two veterans, Ashley Metcalf and Morgan Sforzini, said they were having problems getting paid and wondered whether other veterans were. A total of 88 VA work-study students from 16 states answered their written questions. More than half were in states that submitted their time cards to the St. Louis office. Six veterans interviewed by The Associated Press reported delays of up to two months in getting a paycheck or getting approval for the contract allowing them to hold a work-study job. They also complained of long waits on hold when calling about the checks and contracts. Veterans at the University of Colorado, Denver, keep score to see “who cannot get paid the longest,” said Metcalf, an Air Force veteran who has a work-study job. The record is 90 days. The veterans find various workarounds when their checks are
late, from getting emergency loans to temporarily getting on their college’s payroll. Loki Jones, an Army Special Forces veteran who served in Iraq, said he had to borrow money to pay his rent last spring because his work-study check was about three months late. Jones, a student at the University of Colorado, Denver, said his contract was lost and then his time card was held up at least twice, once because he failed to initial parts of it. “If I hadn’t gotten that emergency loan, if that hadn’t gone through, I would have gotten kicked out of my apartment for sure,” he said. Air Force veteran Jon Bohlander, who attends Johnson County Community College in Kansas, said he submitted a contract extension in late May or early June for a job during the college’s summer session. The approved extension came back on July 27, a day before the session ended.

gest issue that faces our country, and I am also telling a story that is mine, it’s personal. ... We’re talking about the very nature of citizenship in this country. ... I am an American. If you cut my heart open, that’s what you would see. I don’t have the right papers to show you that, but that’s who I am. That’s how I look at the world. That’s what forms the way I think about world, the way I think about myself. I’m a human being.
DI: If you had revealed yourself as an undocumented immigrant 10 years ago, how do you think your life would be different? JV: I don’t think I would’ve

Editorial Ignore Lance Armstrong’s doping allegations when forming opinion on Livestrong foundation
T
he yellow, silicone gel bracelets we sported in junior high represented just how much an impact Livestrong had and just how far-reaching Livestrong was. The Livestrong brand, otherwise known as the Lance Armstrong Foundation, found a way to touch nearly every American life and, arguably, every person who has been afflicted by cancer or will be. The organization used its astounding number of resources and supporters to confront almost every challenge posed by cancer (which currently holds the No. 2 spot for leading causes of death in the U.S.): stigmas, quality of life, cancer research, emotional support, financial support and more. But when years of doping accusations against Lance Armstrong were confirmed by the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency, it dragged the name of his reputable foundation in the mud. It was in a 164-page report, published by the USADA, that the full extent of his doping was exposed. The laundry list includes testosterone, erythropoietin, transfused blood, corticosteroids and more. On Monday, Armstrong was stripped of his seven Tour-deFrance titles and banned by the International Cycling Union, and the long-time cycling legend’s fraudulence enraged fans. But the most afflicting consequence of Armstrong’s fall from the graces of his supporters will be how Livestrong donors react. Many donors are demanding their money back, having been under false pretense about Armstrong’s character when they donated. The Lance Armstrong Foundation will unravel quickly if the people who have been backing it up pull out of it because of its association to the fraudulent king. Armstrong no longer deserves to be the hero behind the cause for cancer, but the foundation he gave birth to is still noble — without Armstrong, the organization’s work can still go on. Livestrong supporters should not associate Armstrong’s image with what the foundation represents and does for cancer research — and, actually, Lance doesn’t want the association either. Last week, Armstrong stepped down as chair of the Livestrong charity: “This organization, its mission and its supporters are incredibly dear to my heart,” he said in a statement. “Today therefore, to spare the foundation any negative effects as a result of controversy surrounding my cycling career, I will conclude my chairmanship.” Armstrong was a celebrity heading the charity, but he was by no means in the middle of all the action and interplay that made Livestrong what it is — it’s the Livestrong donors and supporters who make it what it is. His downfall hurt the cycling community and his fan base directly, but the ball he got rolling on cancer research and awareness is still rolling on without him. He is divorced from its good work, and the good the foundation does can continue.

into effect in Olmsted County, Minn. This list is the Sparknotes version of entire textbooks and reports on the effects of smoking on cancer, heart health, metabolism, etc. But remarkably, it’s not at the forefront of the discussion that’s being had about the smoking ban that will be taking place next year. Instead, the discussion focuses on what the policy may mean for personal liberty. No doubt, there are social issues to be resolved in regard to how smokers may be perceived on our campus or about what this policy may signal for the future of other restrictions that may be enacted. But our heated emotions toward the social issues at hand do not trump what adverse health effects come from smoking. We might not see it now, we might not see it 30 years or even 70 years, for that matter, but for every second we are given the opportunity to live a healthier life, we will thank ourselves for having mitigated as many health risks as possible. Attention to these social issues drives our society toward positive change. But before we direct our attention to our social rights, we need to pay respect to each person’s more fundamental right to good health. The smoking ban is a stride toward necessary change for the University.
oters commonly think of a presidential election as a long job interview. Each candidate has several months to persuade the country to hire him or, in the case of Mitt Romney, why the president should be fired and he should be hired. If you have been thinking of the election in these terms, please stop. This election is, in its simplest form, a relationship. You see, when a company hires a candidate for a specific job, it’s typically hiring that candidate for his skills, experience and knowledge. As with a real relationship, you aren’t just committing to one person. Instead, you are tying yourself to a slew of appointees, nominees and Cabinet members (the in-laws in this case). More specifically, the next president of the United States will likely have the chance to nominate one, two or as many as four people into the highest court in the land. The upcoming vacancies are due to the advanced ages of Antonin Scalia, 76; Anthony M. Kennedy, 76; Ruth Bader Ginsburg, 79; and Stephen G. Bryer, 74. Additionally, Justice Ginsburg has battled pancreatic cancer in the past, and many speculate that she will step down in the near future. Whether America gives the metaphorical rose to Obama or Romney on Election Day, the choice will impact the ideological makeup of the Supreme Court for an entire generation. This matters now more than ever, as the court has recently been a major legislative force in the country by upholding the president’s signature health care law and opening the campaign finance floodgates with the Citizens United case. These two issues are just examples of how the reach of the court spans far and wide across the country as well as into the future. Moving forward, analysts of the court and the legal realm in general expect a large number of hot-button issues to reach the high court, not only in the current term but over the next several years. To put this in perspective, the effects of your vote Nov. 6 will not only be felt for the next four years, but for decades. The 1973 case of Roe v. Wade is quite possibly the most famous of all time because it made abortion legal in this country, initiating a new world order when it came to reproductive rights. Ever since that time, conservatives and anti-choice activists have sought to undo the landmark decision but have been unable to do so under the various ideological makeups of the court. A Mitt Romney presidency could bring the exit of a liberal justice in Ginsburg and the entry of another conservative judge that would clinch the number of votes required to overturn the law should a relevant legal case enter the court’s consideration. On the other hand, another Obama term could see the addition of a liberal replacement for Ginsburg and the addition of other progressives should more justices exit. This could result in a possible reversal of the Citizens United decision that allowed for unlimited independent political contributions or many issues progressives would like to push into being the law of the land. Although I am not going to attempt to push you in one direction or the other, I do ask that you (again, metaphorically) go home with each candidate for the weekend. Take a look at who you might be committing the country to by voting for each one. If you are undecided, independent or just confused, you are likely not going to unanimously agree with either candidate’s ideology and should consider something a little more long term. Whomever you commit to in 2012 may shape the status on landmark cases from the past or others that may not even exist yet. That is why it is important to take time to fully understand where each candidate stands on the issues. Just remember that although you may be smitten with one candidate, he may bring a motley crew of undesirable justices who are the judicial equivalent of a rude motherin-law, a pesky stepchild or, in some cases, a vicious pet. Whether you realize it or give it no attention, all of those things can ruin a seemingly perfect “relationship.”

Presidential campaigns should stop making, revoking impossible promises DYLAN HOYER Opinions columnist
T
his campaign has gone on since the last one ended. And it doesn’t seem like the 2012 election will end on Nov. 6, so much as the battle for 2016 will begin on Nov. 7. In the perpetual campaign cycle, politicians are forced to constantly one-up their opponents in verbiage and commitments. Selling points are made throughout stump speeches, and televised debates become infomercials. With the last presidential debate finally behind us, we only have two more weeks to go until Election Day. But before these next 14 days are up, voters in battleground states and those of us around the nation are going to be hearing much more from Romney and Obama. More specifically, we’re going to be told what each one can promise us and how that promise is better than the other guy’s. But I’m tired of promises. Whether it’s slowing the rise of the oceans or healing the planet as Obama said in 2008, both seem a little bit above the president of the United States’ pay grade. So does creating 12 million new jobs. Government can’t do any of these things. Why would politicians intentionally promise something that they know they can’t do? Because we keep on believing them. They keep playing this crooked game with us, and they keep winning. Many politicians nowadays have learned the crafty art of the poker face. Give out a lot of general promises and obligations to spe-
cific voting blocs, and then hold back on specifics that may entangle some previous engagement. After you, the public, have been hooked on their message, they’ll play the one close to your heart as we’ve seen in the last debate. Romney made a conscious effort to appeal to women voters, while Obama told an emotional tale from his presidency conveniently highlighting the death of one Osama bin Laden. Both men pledged support for Israel, but responses like “I stand with Israel” instead of a direct answer to the question about direct military engagement in Monday’s debate at Lynn University in Florida leaves ambiguity where there should be clarity. There has been a disturbing lack of specifics in each candidate’s plan for even our most important national issues. They’re holding their cards close, and no cracks in the poker faces. But that’s what we have come to expect. Until voters demand details, none will be given. So nothing is out of order here. Each candidate is giving out promises, but the effects of these new promises will not take effect until after their prospective terms in office. These promises, though, never truly see their end in the first term of a presidency: They set up how they are going to finish it, but leave the rest for another term. Obama promised to have the troops out of Afghanistan, but we won’t see that happen until 2014 — in a second term. No twoparty system candidate has a plan to significantly reduce the deficit and balance the budget during their respective tenure. One already promised to cut it in half and failed to live up to that commitment. These promises are nice-sound-
ing and all, but they come with conditions. These conditions make it easy to shirk responsibility. Promises based on conditions like a good economy or world peace are promises with strings. If these unlikely qualifications aren’t met, the promises are revoked or tweaked. Even if the candidates don’t live up to their hype, they will still be president for at least four years down the road. They will have taken their pot from the middle of the table before they pay out their promises. This is a necessary risk we have to take with all candidates, regardless of character. But we need to examine each as closely as possible to ensure we will get a good return on our investment of trust. The poker game needs to end, and specifics need to be emphasized over general promises. It’s all fun and politics until somebody gets hurt. And this game we play with politicians every 2-4 years is beginning to turn into serious complications. There are serious debates to be had on foreign policy, but two weeks out of an election is not the time to switch positions on troops in Afghanistan, nor is two months out time to mislead concerning a terrorist attack in Benghazi, Libya. The consequences of these promises being broken, the aftermath and beyond, as shown in these events, affect the global polity and the well-being of home as well. The flirtations with dangerous outcomes through our officials’ campaign obligations walk a thin line. But I guess Russian roulette truly isn’t the same without a gun.

Smoking ban a stride toward needed change for Illinois NORA IBRAHIM Opinions columnist
If
you take a stroll on the Quad and fleetingly pass by a smoker’s cigarette butt, the entire interaction seems just that — fleeting. It doesn’t seem that the entire five seconds you’ve been exposed to secondhand smoke will have any impact, especially not when you’re in as open a space as the Quad. But in your body, a domino effect, instigating a set of mechanisms, is starting to run a toll on the most crucial functions of your body: In five minutes, the smoke has already considerably stiffened your aorta, restricting the blood flow to your heart. In as little as 15 minutes, the endothelium that lines your arteries has dilated, and in 30 minutes, the effect on your coronary arteries is similar to that of a habitual smoker’s. In one hour of exposure to secondhand smoke, the increased levels of platelet activity mimic that of a firsthand smoker’s, showing that your body is working harder and harder to mend the damaging effects of that cigarette butt you’re not even enjoying yourself. Case in point: No level of exposure to secondhand smoke is risk-free. The effects are immediate, and though a brisk pace behind a smoker doesn’t seem like a big deal, those moments
accumulate and will make an effect on your health, whether you’re a smoker or nonsmoker. And unlike those who choose to down a bucket of KFC, those who are subjected to secondhand smoke aren’t making the choice themselves. The University-wide smoking ban is a hot-button issue for everyone on campus — as evidenced by the near 50-50 split in people’s opinions. The most brought-up counterarguments to the ban include questions about its enforcement, whether students and faculty members’ rights are being overridden and the effectiveness of the ban. But in all of this dialogue against the campuswide smoking ban, we’ve escaped our responsibility to address the pertinent reasons that even brought about the birth of the ban. So, briefly, I’m going to make a public-service announcement and remind us all why it matters that a ban like this is put in place: ! Cigarette smoke contains more than 7,000 chemicals, of which hundreds are toxic and 70 have been classified as carcinogenic. Some of these chemicals include ammonia, carbon monoxide, cyanide and lead. (And these are just four of the 7,000.) ! Smoking bans do make an impact. According to a study conducted by Mayo Clinic, cases of adverse cardiovascular health, such as cardiac arrest, was halved after two policies restricting public smoking went

Home workouts stir up results without the gym BY SAHER KHAN STAFF WRITER
Forty minutes of intense cardio conditioning and ab work sounds like a typical day at the gym. On the contrary, this same workout can be done directly in the comfort of one’s living room. In today’s world, with technology providing people ways to basically do anything from home, it also offers people an effective means of working out at home. “My roommate and I were looking for something to do when we didn’t feel like walking to the ARC and found a workout called Insanity,” said Adriana Zalloni, junior in LAS. Zalloni explained that Insanity is a home workout series composed of a collection of DVDs. It covers a two-month period and each DVD has a different workout routine to condition the entire body. Though the workouts completed throughout a given week are the same, the order in which they are done changes from week to week. There is also a week of recovery when the exercises are less intense. “Insanity has gotten me to do more workouts than I ever have. Some people want to go for a run or do the elliptical, but for me, I never want to do that,” Zalloni said. “I’m doing cardio, stretching, strengthening my muscles, I’m becoming more flexible. It encompasses everything in such a short period of time and there’s no excuse not to do it.” The entire series can be purchased on Amazon for about $145. The DVD shows an instructor on screen and is like taking a fitness class at home, Zalloni added. She and her roommate love the intensity of the workout. For those who speculate the effectiveness of unconventional regiments like at-home exercises, Zalloni insists that participants will see results. “There is a ‘fit test’ you do every two weeks. You can track your progress by how much you improve. The first time my room-
rather than going to the gym. “I used to be really into running but I hurt my knee so I couldn’t run long distances anymore,” said Kadambari Jain , junior in LAS. “I was trying to fi nd some other way to stay in shape and since my hometown is really small and we don’t have gym, my friends and I saw a commercial for Insanity and decided to do it.” Jain said that after getting into Insanity, she enjoyed it so much that she got involved with a larger company Beach Body, which distributes fitness packages like Insanity and P90x. “I really got into the company Beach Body, and they have a ton of different home fitness packages. I got a coach online through Beach Body and she got me into a workout called Turbo Fire. I like it even more than Insanity,” Jain said. Turbo Fire is a mix between dance and kickboxing. A similar class is offered as a group fitness class at the ARC as well, called Turbo Kick. “I like at-home workouts because you can do them on your own time. At at the gym I was getting bored and I stopped seeing improvement,” Jain said. “I also feel like it is hard to try and do stuff with so many people around and it’s like they’re judging you, almost.” Jain said she really likes the flexibility and variety of home workouts; they keep her attention and prevent her from getting bored.
getting bored,” Petruzzello said. He added it is no surprise that the at-home workout trend has increased in popularity because people are always looking for something different. “It is not about what the workout is, because workouts like P90x and Insanity are not for everyone,” Petruzzello said. “As long as people are doing something they enjoy and it is giving people results they are looking for, then people should go ahead and stick with whatever workout regiment they are doing until they fi nd something different.” Generally during workouts people feel horrible, but afterwards they feel a sense of accomplishment and triumph, Petruzzello added. Exercise should not be a punishment completed in a gym; it should be something to enjoy, using whatever methods are the most convenient. “Whatever people can do to get out and move is a good thing. Whether that’s going to a gym or working out at home, moving is the key thing, because certainly as a society — and really becoming a worldwide epidemic — people don’t move enough,” Petruzzello said. All forms of exercise are effective in their own way as long as individuals enjoy what they do, and are seeing some type of progress.

SAN JOSE, Calif. — Apple Inc.’s pencil-thin, smaller iPad will cost much more than its competitors, signaling the company isn’t going to get into a mini-tablet price war. The company debuted the iPad Mini Tuesday, with a screen two-thirds smaller than the full model and half the weight. Customers can begin ordering the new model on Friday. In a surprise, Apple also revamped its flagship, full-sized iPad just six months after the launch of the latest model. Apple’s late founder Steve Jobs once ridiculed a small tablet from a competitor as a “tweener” that was too big and too small to compete with either smartphones or tablets. Now Apple’s own Mini enters a growing small-tablet market dominated by Amazon.com Inc.’s Kindle Fire. Apple is charging $329 and up for the Mini — a price that fits into the Apple product lineup between the latest iPod Touch ($299) and the iPad 2 ($399). Company watchers had been expecting Apple to price the iPad Mini at $250 to $300 to compete with the Kindle Fire, which starts at $159. Barnes & Noble Inc.’s Nook HD and Google Inc.’s Nexus 7 both start at $199. “Apple had an opportunity to step on the throat of Amazon and Google yet decided to rely on its brand and focus on margin,” said Bill Kreher, an analyst with brokerage Edward Jones. Apple has sold more than 100 million iPads since April 2010. Analysts expect Apple to sell 5 million to 10 million iPad Minis before the year is out. Apple shares fell $20.67, or 3.3 percent, to $613.36 when the price was announced. Shares of Barnes & Noble Inc. jumped 88 cents, or 6.1 percent, to $15.32. Shares of Amazon.com Inc. rose 53 cents, or 0.2 percent, to $234.31. Apple starts taking orders for the new model on Friday, said marketing chief Phil Schiller in San Jose. Wi-Fi-only models will ship on Nov. 2. Later, the company will add models capable of accessing “LTE” wireless data networks.

Johnny Torres, a barista at Espresso Royale in the Undergraduate Library, is well-known for his intricately groomed mustache.
MUSTACHES FROM PAGE 6A Espresso Royale for seven years now, and he is also an alumnus of the University. He keeps the ends of his mustache curled symmetrically with pomade, a waxy substance that holds it in place nicely. “Nowadays, (the mustache in society) is definitely a thing for fashion,” Torres said. “Personally, it’s about just going back to that old idea of taking care of yourself, making sure you look good, presentable.” A mustache is a transformer robot — there is more to it than what meets the eye. There are people who go to great lengths to keep their fuzzy facial formations intact, and they all have their own reasons for doing so. If you are skeptical about the subject of mustaches, keep doing your research, because you never know — it could grow on you.

you’re looking for the key to happiness, it’s right under your nose. I mean, literally under your nose. It’s the famed, sometimes tamed, highly acclaimed, mighty mustache. This extraordinary piece of facial art has been around since the dawn of man. It has occupied upper lips of males (and occasionally others) everywhere, providing them with a sense of identity, status and all-encompassing manliness. The mustache is not only an emblem of the various historical figures of our time; it has evolved to play a larger role today, serving as a fresh, avant-garde approach to facial hair. This upper lip apparatus is the focus of several social groups, many of them represented online in niche websites like the Handlebar Club, the Beard Community and ’Stachist, a mustache blog. One of such organizations is the American Mustache Institute (AMI). The AMI is the fiercely patriotic, self-proclaimed international “leading facial hair advocacy organization and think tank ... promoting the growth, care, and culture of the lower nose forest,” according to their website.

Beard and Moustache Championships, varying mustache forms are welcomed and even celebrated. At the international contest, mustaches are meticulously judged under a number of categories including the Musketeer, Hungarian Moustache, Natural Goatee and Freestyle Moustache. Every two years, this worldwide bushy battle takes place in a different chosen city. The United States is having their third annual national competition just a few weeks from now on November 11. Like snowflakes, each mustache is unique in its own way. Each has its personal history, and every set of whiskers is symbolic to the wearer himself. “When my girlfriend and I found out we were having a baby, I decided that I wasn’t going to shave for the whole nine months,” said Johnny Torres, a second-year Parkland College student studying autobody collision repair. He has maintained a neatly-styled handlebar mustache for more than two years. “My beard got bigger and my mustache got longer, and it just kind of became its own thing,” he said.

Meningitis outbreak won’t affect UI students, doctors say BY KARYNA RODRIQUEZ CONTRIBUTING WRITER
The recent fungal meningitis outbreak has reached a total of 23 deaths in the United States to date. Students at the University, however, need not worry about the fatal form of this infection. The outbreak, while not contagious, has spread to 16 states through a contaminated steroid that was injected primarily into spinal areas in addition to peripheral joint spaces, such as the knee, shoulder or ankle. “The students at the University of Illinois have no reason to be worried about the fungal meningitis because none of them
have gotten these shots. I’m 100 percent certain of that,” said Dr. Robert D. Palinkas, director of the McKinley Health Center. While this deadly form of meningitis may not affect students, according to associate professor Dr. Karin Rosenblatt, there are other types that are more common on college campuses. “(Meningitis is) something that happens a lot to college students and people on military bases, and kind of a little bit younger people that are in group settings,” Rosenblatt said. Bacterial meningitis is one strain that is linked to several pathogens but is most commonly
caused by the bacteria Neisseria meningitidis in young people. Bacterial meningitis can emerge on any college campus on an irregular basis, Palinkas said. “It can pass from one person to the other, and it needs to be diagnosed and treated early to have a good outcome,” Palinkas said. “And if that doesn’t happen, the outcome can even be death or even disfigurement, such as disabilities (like) deafness or loss of limb.” Palinkas said the most important way students can avoid contracting bacterial meningitis is by getting vaccinated. They should also make sure not to
share personal items with other students. The bacteria can pass when people kiss or share a cigarette or bottle of beer, which is how it moves in the population, Palinkas said. “That sort of explains to some extent how (the bacteria) seems to like to bother campuses where people live in shared facilities,” he said. “They might share a glass in the bathroom or something like that where the bacteria can easily move from one mouth to another mouth.” Students who have not been vaccinated can make an appointment at McKinley for a small fee
that most insurance companies can cover. Viral meningitis is another strain students should be aware of. This is most commonly caused by enteroviruses, which can be spread from person to person through fecal contamination or respiratory secretions. Therefore, students should make sure to wash their hands after using the bathroom and avoid sharing personal items to decrease chances of contracting both strains. Unlike bacterial meningitis, the viral kind is not very severe and can therefore be cured with little to no medication.
“For the public, the meningitis term can be kind of scary. ... People naturally think of the one that seems to be relevant to them, so on college campuses, they always think of the bacterial form,” Palinkas said. “But the viral form can occur on a college campus too. It’s just not as scary as the bacterial version.” Students who display symptoms of meningitis, such as a combination of severe headaches and a high fever, should visit McKinley Health Center or another health care facility.

Illini
OF THE WEEK Shayla Mutz
In her home finale Sunday, the senior scored two goals against Nebraska, aiding Illinois’ 4-1 victory.
PORTRAIT BY JOSEPH LEE THE DAILY ILLINI
BY CHARLIE MANIATES STAFF WRITER
Editor’s note: The Daily Illini sports desk sits down Sunday nights and decides which Illinois athlete or coach is our Illini of the Week. Student-athletes and coaches are evaluated by individual performance and contribution to team success.
W
ith Sunday being the fi nal home game of the season, Shayla Mutz was just happy to be out there with her teammates. The forward, though, made her senior day experience much more memorable than that. While senior forward Niki Read recorded a goal, and each of the seniors played well, Mutz stole the show early, tallying two scores in the first half to lead the Illini to a 4-1 victory over Nebraska. Going into the game knowing it would be the fi nal regular season home game of her career, Mutz thought of the whole experience as bittersweet. “I guess I was sad. It’s been an awesome experience the past four years, so it was sad to see it come to
an end,” she said. “But it was a really cool experience. Our team did an awesome job of making it a really special weekend for each and every one of the seniors, so we were really thankful for that.” Mutz’s fi rst goal came after a Nebraska turnover in the 18-yard box. The senior then knocked the ball off of the right post and into the back of the net. The second goal was scored on a header after a flip throwin from freshman forward Nicole Breece. “It’s really great because both (junior forward Megan Pawloski) and Breece have been very consistent with (the flip throw-ins),” Mutz said. “So you trust that as long as you’re doing your job, they’re going to fi nd you and they’re going to get you the ball, which usually works for us.” She added that, while it is always nice to score a goal, it was even more special to do it on senior day. She called it a team effort, saying her teammates did a great job of setting her up for both chances that she converted. What may be most impressive
about this performance is that Mutz recorded it after returning from nagging injuries that have slowed her down the past few weeks. Head coach Janet Rayfield took her out of the game Sunday after 37 minutes to preserve her health for the final road game against Michigan and, more importantly, the Big Ten Tournament, which begins next Wednesday. “Her inability to play the last three weeks, I think she really showed the passion and the competitive spirit that sort of has been locked up and that she hasn’t been able to release,” Rayfield said. “I think we certainly saw that pent up energy on Sunday.” Rayfield said Mutz had been itching to get onto the field, especially with the Illini’s lack of success in the games before the win against Nebraska and that her performance, competitiveness and energy after returning inspired her team. “I told her it was really great to have her back on the field and that we had limited her minutes, which meant that she has opportunities to inspire us the same way on Sunday for the rest of the season,” Rayfield said.
Honorable mentions Colette Falsey (women’s crosscountry) — The sophomore
finished first out of 34 runners at the fifth-annual Illinois Open last Friday. With her victory, she secured a spot on the conference roster.
Rachael White and Melissa Kopinski (women’s tennis) —
The doubles team won the ITA Midwest Regional at the Atkins Tennis Center on Monday morning, booking their trip to New York for ITA National Indoor Intercollegiate Championships.
Mutz said she knew that the substitution was for the best with postseason play right around the corner, but the competitor in her felt differently. “I don’t know if I’m allowed to say that,” Mutz joked when asked if she was upset about being substituted.

Indiana game has Kansas City flavor to it Scheelhaase has history with Hoosiers coach, QB BY SEAN HAMMOND STAFF WRITER
As a high school quarterback at Rockhurst High School in Kansas City, Mo., Nathan Scheelhaase was heavily recruited by four top-level football programs: Illinois, Iowa, Missouri and Oklahoma. The coach then in charge of recruiting the Kansas City area for Oklahoma was Sooners’ offensive coordinator Kevin Wilson. Wilson was unable to convince Scheelhaase to play for the Sooners, but it wouldn’t be the last time the two would see each other. As Illinois prepares for its Homecoming game against Indiana on Saturday, Scheelhaase is scheming to fi gure out how to beat an improved Hoosiers squad under their second-year head coach Kevin Wilson. Scheelhaase said he had a good relationship with Wilson when he was in high school. Coincidentally, one of the Sooners defensive coaches at the time — and current Hoosiers cornerbacks’ coach — was Rockhurst graduate Brandon Shelby. When Scheelhaase won the Thomas A. Simone Award as the best high school football player in the Kansas City area in 2007, he became the fi rst Rockhurst player to win the award since 1999 when Shelby did it. Shelby played defensive back at Oklahoma in the early 2000s, helping the Sooners reach two BCS championship games. “He was a (graduate assistant) at OU when I went to camps there,” Scheelhaase said. “It’s always a little more exciting to play people you know. At least, I’m a little more excited about it than usual, that’s for sure.” Sticking with the Kansas City theme, when Indiana starting quarterback Tre Roberson went down for the season with a broken left leg, Kansas City-area native Cameron Coffman stepped in to fi ll Roberson’s role. Scheelhaase said anyone following high school football in Kansas City would know the Coffman name. Coffman’s brothers, Carson and Chase, both played Division I football in the Midwest. Carson played quarterback at Kansas State while Chase — also a Simone Award winner — played tight end at Missouri, helping the Tigers to 37 wins

T
he fantasy football regular season is halfway over, which means owners are fi nding themselves dealing with both bye weeks and injuries. It’s a crucial time for roster tweaks. It’s also a time when many owners give up on their fantasy team because they are either too invested in their favorite NFL team, too discouraged by their favorite
NFL team, simply bad fantasy owners or any of 100 other reasons, 90 of which involve binge drinking. These owners play into this equation as well. The waiver wire, if the right players are out there, can help boost your team for the second half.

But if these players are not available, then you need to exploit another route to improve your team. You need to

After its 10th loss of the season on Sunday, the Illinois volleyball team already has more defeats than in any of head coach Kevin Hambly’s previous three seasons. With this, a new phrase has surfaced in postgame and practice conversations that is relatively unfamiliar to Hambly’s program: “Make the tournament.” In previous years, an Illinois NCAA tournament bid was assumed — hosting a regional was a more pertinent idea. But with 10 wins, 10 losses and 10 games remaining on the schedule, Illinois must adjust its focus to the more immediate task of making the tournament, rather than long-term goals such as matching last year’s national championship team. “(Making the tournament) is not our goal, but it’s the reality,” Hambly said. “We have greater goals than that, but in order to get the goals we want, we’ve gotta make the tournament, and it’s different, but my approach is the same. ... It doesn’t change that much, just the vernacular that’s being passed around and what’s being said maybe changes.” What’s being said around Huff Hall these days is “one day at a time.” The sentiment seems obvious, but it’s harder to adopt on a team playing in the chronological shadow of one that made national runner-up. “I feel like a big struggle we had, at the beginning especially, was kind of protecting what last year was, which is something we got hung up on,” junior libero Jennifer Beltran said. “And we really shouldn’t have. It’s something that we should have dropped a long time ago.” What at first appeared to be a slow start has manifested itself as inconsistencies. Hambly said while the team has improved its skill level, it has yet to become sufficiently consistent. “We can play at a higher level than we did at the beginning of the year,” he said, “but we haven’t been able to play at a higher level for the amount of time we need to, to win a bunch of matches in the Big Ten.” Of the 10 games left on the schedule, Hambly said the team needs to win six to make the tournament, though obviously it would like to win more than that. “I think everyone still believes in the talent, it’s just can we get it together,” Hambly said. Since the beginning of the season, Illinois

With freshman Alexis Viliunas replacing senior setter Annie Luhrsen, the Illini trotted out underclassmen in six of their seven starting slots. Lacking consistency in their play and in their personnel, the Illini have had trouble nailing down their identity as a team. In that quest, they lost track of themselves as individuals, something they’re looking to remedy.
“I feel like a lot of times we kind of forget about ourselves in a way,” Beltran said. “I don’t know if this is gonna make sense, but sometimes our focus has to be on ourselves, at some point, individually. ... I feel like the hardest part is figuring out what you need individually, and I think that’s something that some of us have struggled with and are still trying

Big Ten features exciting matchups Wisconsin, Michigan enter BCS rankings BY CHAD THORNBURG STAFF WRITER
Editor’s note: Big 10 of the Big Ten is a collection of tidbits from around the conference. This weekly feature provides a recap from the previous slate of games and also serves as a preview to the upcoming football weekend.
Marquee matchups While the Big Ten’s play has been lackluster this season in comparison to the other BCS conferences, this week promises some exciting matchups within the conference: Ohio State takes on Penn State in the battle of the ineligibles, while Michigan and Nebraska headline a Legends Division showdown. Even the Leaders Division’s bottom feeders could be an enticing watch as the Hoosiers travel to Champaign for a Homecoming date with the Illini.
Back in the rankings After an early-season stumble, the Michigan Wolverines and Wisconsin Badgers are back in the rankings at No. 22 and 25, respectively. No Big Ten teams were ranked in the BCS Top 25 last week.
Leading the nation Michigan’s Denard Robinson and Ohio State’s Braxton Miller were announced this week as finalists for the Davey O’Brien Award, which is given to the nation’s top quarterback. Robinson and Miller are among five finalists. The Big Ten’s most recent winner was Troy Smith in 2006.

produced 407 yards of offense and four scores as the Cornhuskers came from behind to defeat Northwestern 29-28 on the road.
Top defensive performance
OSU hangs on Ohio State took down Purdue this weekend 29-22 and remained the Big Ten’s lone undefeated team. But the win didn’t come without a cost, as Miller’s status is up in the air this week after leaving the game with a head injury.
Top offensive performance Nebraska’s Taylor Martinez
On the defensive side of the ball, Jordan Hill logged nine tackles and one sack as Penn State downed Iowa 38-14 . The nine tackles were a season high for the senior defensive tackle.
Wisconsin and the rest Wisconsin (3-1 Big Ten) continued to separate itself in the Leaders Division race behind Penn State and Ohio State, both
which are ineligible for postseason play. Indiana, Illinois and Purdue all are winless with 0-3 conference records.
Legends Division The Legends Division could come down to Michigan and Nebraska, and this week’s matchup between those teams is crucial in the division race. Michigan is 3-0 in Big Ten play, while Nebraska and Iowa trail behind with a 2-1 record.
Coach of the Year? Penn State’s Bill O’Brien is making a case for NCAA Coach of the Year award this sea-
son. Despite the offseason turmoil surrounding the program, including losing several of his top players to transfers, O’Brien has the Nittany Lions second in the Leaders Division race at 5-2 .
Record chasing Although Wisconsin’s top rusher started off the season quietly, Montee Ball is making some noise in the record books as he approaches the NCAA record for career rushing touchdowns. Ball is four scores short of Miami’s (OH) Travis Prentice’s record of 78 touchdowns.

Men’s tennis pair wins regional title Gosea, Kopinski advance to ITA finals in New York BY STEVEN VAZQUEZ STAFF WRITER

FOOTBALL FROM PAGE 1B over four years and winning the John Mackey Award as the best tight end in the nation his senior season in 2008. Chase is currently on the Atlanta Falcons practice squad. “I’m sure if you asked Illinois DBs from three or four years ago, they’d know exactly who I’m talking about,” Scheelhaase said. Cameron Coffman had multiple Division I offers to play quarterback but chose to attend Arizona Western College, a small school in Yuma, Ariz. He led the Matadors to 11 wins, the most in school history, culminating in a loss in the NJCAA national championship. Scheelhaase said his high school coach, Tony Severino, thought Coffman was one of the best quarterbacks Rockhurst had played in recent years. Scheelhaase remembers Coffman throwing the ball as many as 40 or 50 times per game while he was at Raymore-Peculiar Senior High School. “He’s a great quarterback, and he kind of just got squeezed out,” Scheelhaase said. “He’s a kid that’s got a heck of a lot of talent and knows the game real well. (Indiana) got a steal getting him.” Coffman has thrown for 1,320 yards, seven touchdowns and three interceptions in six games with the Hoosiers since Roberson’s season-ending injury. Indiana is riding a five-game losing streak but has lost four of those games by a combined 10 points. When Illinois and Indiana take the field Saturday, all eyes will be on the two Kansas Cityarea quarterbacks. Scheelhaase’s familiarity with Coffman won’t help prepare him for the Indiana defense. But with a bye week, Scheelhaase has had extra time to prepare for the Hoosiers and watch them in the fi lm room. “I remember watching them last year, and they just didn’t have experience,” he said. “Now all of the sudden those guys do have the experience. They’re a whole lot more comfortable with what they’re doing.”

bles title, taking out doubles teams from Michigan State, Michigan, Notre Dame, Ohio State and Western Michigan. In the championship match, the duo won against No. 5-seeded Notre Dame Spencer Talmadge and Greg Andrews 8-5 . Illinois head Coach Brad Dancer said the Illini pair is doing something very simple: They have set a standard for themselves to play with high energy and intensity in doubles competition. When they were not executing, this standard helped them prevail, Dancer said. “I think Kopinski and Gosea set the tone for our entire team to play, not just one team,” Dancer said. “Their energy is what the standard should be for
the entire Illini tennis in doubles. They set the tone for every single match they played.” Kopinski and Gosea both pointed to their energy as being the main reason they were able to win the championship match. Gosea said both teams executed poorly, but they were able to overwhelm Talmadge and Andrews with their noise levels. He added that they were able to advance by playing solid doubles tennis. “I feel like we dominated most of our other matches,” Gosea said. “We served well, we moved well off of our partner’s serve. Because we were serving so well, we got a few easy volleys and easy put-aways.” Kopinski made it to the semifi nals in the singles tournament,
but lost to Michigan’s Vlad Stefan 6-2, 6-3. He said he made too many errors in the match and also did not serve well. Freshman Jared Hiltzik also made it to the semifi nals in singles but lost to Ohio State’s Peter Kobelt in a heated match 7-6, 6-4 (2). Kobelt came into the tournament as the No. 2 seed. Hiltzik was seeded at No. 13, which he was surprised by. He said ultimately seeding does not matter, though. “I saw a No. 4 seed go down early and that just shows that anything can happen on any given day,” Hiltzik said. Dancer said given the level of Kopinski’s and Hiltzik’s performances throughout the tournament, they were both fortunate to reach the semifi nals.
“I don’t think either one of them played above 75 or 80 percent of what they could play,” Dancer said. “I think Tim’s offensive and defensive play were both suspect throughout the weekend and I think Jared’s offensive play was very, very suspect.” Dancer gave credit to Kopinski for holding it together and advancing as far as he did even though he was not executing as much as he would like. He pointed to Hiltzik’s serve as being the reason he was able to advance. The Illini will be heading to College Station, Texas, this weekend to compete with LSU, Texas A&M and Oklahoma in the Team Championships.
to figure out in order for everyone else to help.” Sophomore Anna Dorn pointed to individual focus to fuel the team’s competitive fire. “We need to figure out individually what we can do to be competitive out on the court, not just for the betterment of the team, but just for ourselves,” she said. “If we can individually be competitive, then it will eventually benefit the team, if that kinda makes sense.” Illinois faces several battles in the coming weeks, with conference foes, with its own inconsistencies and within each individual. If the Illini are successful, they’ll be able to identify themselves as not only a competitive group, but as an NCAA tournament team.

that he is not knowledgeable on the 2012 football landscape. Maybe he doesn’t know that Jimmy Graham cannot stay healthy. Perhaps he is unaware that a man named Alfred Morris is actually a good running back. Take advantage. Be smart, be persistent, be aggressive and be without a moral code. Ethics have no place in fantasy football, anyway.
But if there is no one to trade-abuse and your last option is the waiver wire, options are still available to you. Here are three players that are worth a look. Rashad Jennings (running back, Jaguars, 13.7 percent owned in ESPN leagues) — Maurice Jones-Drew is hurt and could be out for an extended period of time. He was the entire Jaguars offense when
he played. Quite literally, the entire offense. They can’t pass, so what other option do they have? Jennings now fi lls in for Jones-Drew and, presumably, jumps right into the same game plan. That is, unless Jacksonville decides Chad Henne throwing to Cecil Shorts III is a better option. Dustin Keller (tight end, Jets, 16.8 percent owned) — Keller fi nally returned to full
health in Week Seven and exploded for seven receptions, 93 yards and a touchdown. Nobody likes the Jets and their offense is atrocious, but Keller is a favorite target of quarterback Mark Sanchez. So, strictly in fantasy terms, Keller holds some value. Josh Gordon (wide receiver, Browns, 36.7 percent owned) — Gordon has established himself as a big play receiver in Cleve-

Belmont joins OVC, is favorite to win division BY TERESA M. WALKER THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Bears prepare for difficult schedule, work on offense THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CHICAGO — Eventually, the Chicago Bears defense will need help. The Bears hoped the running game and a diversified passing attack would come around to complement quarterback Jay Cutler’s throws to Brandon Marshall on offense, but after four straight wins and a 13-7 victory over the Detroit Lions on Monday night, they know they’ve got a ways to go to assist their ballhawking defense. “We’re still trying to find our way on offense,” Marshall said. “There’s some chemistry missing there, but you’ve got to expect that in a first-year offense.” In a 41-3 win Oct. 7 over Jacksonville, the offense struggled through a poor first half. The offense started slow in a win over Dallas, and against Detroit it started fast but bogged down and needed the defense to
force four turnovers to preserve the win. With a difficult schedule coming up, the Bears know they’ll need both aspects of the team functioning well. “In the second quarter, we got a little stagnant but we adjusted well,” Cutler said. Cutler took a shot from Detroit defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh late in the first half and left briefly, but finished the game. He expects to play Sunday against Carolina when the Bears hope to be more productive against a defense ranked 24th overall and 20th in scoring. The running game has shown signs of coming around after a slow start, but progress has been sporadic. Running back Matt Forte broke off a season-long 39-yard run in the first quarter to set up the only Bears touchdown. But the Bears were held to 62 rushing yards in the second half while protecting a 10-0 and then 13-0 lead.
The 171 rushing yards looked impressive, but 39 yards came from scrambles by Cutler and backup Jason Campbell as the offensive line had trouble protecting and opening consistent holes. The Bears put some of their inconsistency on Detroit’s strong defensive front. “We knew the front four was the strength of their team so we were going to have to basically beat them up up front so that we can get the running game going and the passing game,” Forte said. “We’re starting to improve each week in the running game.” Forte appeared to have injured his arm near the end of the game but the team said he’ll be fine for the Carolina game. “Hard fought game,” coach Lovie Smith said. “Guys will have bumps and bruises. But I don’t think anyone is hurt seriously where they are going to miss any time.”
FRANKLIN, Tenn. — The Belmont Bruins are jumping into the Ohio Valley Conference with all the finesse of a cannonball off the diving board. The OVC always has been tough as one of only nine leagues to win at least one game in each of the past four NCAA tournaments, and Murray State pushed the league to a new level last season by being ranked most of last season. The Racers are the preseason favorite to win the OVC this season. But Belmont is the preseason pick to win the OVC’s new Eastern Division after moving from the Atlantic Sun, where the Bruins joined only Memphis and Kansas in making the NCAA tournament five of the last seven years. “That sounded like a great idea until it gets close to playing them, and of course we know,” Austin Peay coach Dave Loos said Tuesday at OVC media day. “We’ve played them in nonconference games. But I think overall it is a good thing. It’ll bring a lot of exposure to our league. It’s a win-win deal. It’s going to help Belmont, and it’s going to help our league. There’ll be some great rivalries developed, and I think attendance will pick up.” The Bruins also have been trumpeting this move with billboards and commercials in an advertising campaign that had athletic directors talking as a move to copy themselves. “It was a terrific gesture, and I think it’s genuine too that they’re glad to be in the league and the league is pretty good,” Loos said. Belmont is the Nashville-based university that has jumped from the NAIA to Division I and now finally is in the league based a few miles away from the school. The OVC better suits Belmont’s fans and recruiting base hitting Kentucky, Ohio and Indiana. “I think it’s fair to say if Belmont could’ve chosen a league right out of the bat in Division I it would’ve been the OVC,” Belmont coach Rick Byrd said. The OVC not only brought in Belmont but now is a 12-member league with Southern Illinois University Edwardsville finally a full Division I member. The OVC handled expansion by splitting into two divisions for conference play and for tournament seeding with the top seeds getting byes in March. It’s not a round-robin schedule some coaches might want to be more fair with only the top eight teams advancing to the league tournament. For all of Belmont’s success and attention, it’s the Racers who find themselves the top target after an incredible season that saw Murray State ranked as high as No. 7, the highest by an OVC team since 1970-71, tied the OVC record for wins with a 31-2 season while winning the regular season league title and conference tournament. The Racers then ran into the NCAA Tournament where they beat Colorado State. Coach Steve Prohm also has senior Isaiah Canaan back, and

That is why league coaches and sports information directors made Murray State the overall favorite by a onepoint margin (132) over Belmont (131) with 22 first-place votes. Belmont got 21 first-place votes in the East ahead of Tennessee State (109), Tennessee Tech (87), Morehead State (77) and Eastern Kentucky (56). Jacksonville State is in the East but not eligible for the league tournament due to an NCAA APR penalty. Behind Murray State in the West is Southeast Missouri (108), Austin Peay (92), SIUE (73), Eastern Illinois (49) and Tennessee Martin (38). “You probably thought we would be picked first,” Prohm said. “Now we have to go out and prove we’re worthy of that selection. It’s a lot harder to stay atop than ascend up top. That’s our battle right now because we’re going to get everybody’s best shot, and we have to be ready to play.” Prohm has his hands full with six freshmen. Only Canaan and forward Edward Daniel got heavy playing time last season, though senior forward Brandon Garrett and senior guard/forward Stacy Wilson averaged about 10 or 11 minutes a game. Senior forward Latreze Mushatt is healing from an Achilles tendon injury that may keep him out until February. Sophomore guard Zay Jackson currently is suspended from all team activities while he deals with two counts of first-degree assault for allegedly hitting two people with his car in a store parking lot. With him out, Canaan also
Adam Dunn wins comeback player of the year
Hall of Fame catcher Fisk charged with DUI after being found in cornfield
Sox DH rebounds after off year with 41 home runs in 2012
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CHICAGO — Adam Dunn knows one of the big reasons people are talking about his 2012 season is because of what happened the year before. To fully appreciate his .204 batting average, consider that it was more than 40 points higher than the previous year. His 41 homers not only came close to denying Tigers’ star Miguel Cabrera a triple crown but amounted to 30 more homers than he hit in 2011. And he drove in 96 runs, more than twice his total a year earlier. None of that was lost on the Chicago White Sox designated hitter who on Tuesday was named by The Sporting News the American League comeback player of the year. “It’s an award I hope I never win again,” said Dunn, who has been around long enough to know that the only way a player wins that award is either
will have to defend more. “Having him back is great, and he’s a tremendous kid ... (and) will go down if not the best player, one of the best players ever to play at Murray State. Any time you have an elite guard as a coach that makes you feel really good,” Prohm said. Byrd has three starters back at Belmont including preseason All-OVC picks in guards Kerron Johnson and Ian Clark, but he doesn’t have Mick Hedgepeth or Scott Saunders inside anymore. Johnson led Belmont scoring 13.8 points per game, while Clark hit 92 3-pointers. “I think it’s fair to say Murray State presents a bigger roadblock to going to the NCAA tournament than we’ve probably ever faced in the Atlantic Sun, at least where their program is right now,” Byrd said. Tennessee State got three firstplace votes and is the team Byrd thinks is the league favorite after winning at Murray State and losing to the Racers 54-52 in the tournament championship last season. New coach Travis Williams has four starters back from a team that went 20-13 with Robert Covington, Patrick Miller and Wil Peters starting at least 32 games each. Southeast Missouri also received two first-place votes with three starters back from a team that went 9-7 in league play. Coach Dickey Nutt has junior forward Tyler Stone who averaged 14.7 points and 7.3 rebounds in his first season after transferring from Missouri.

Chicago White Sox's Adam Dunn, right, gets congratulated at home plate by teammate Kevin Youkilis after Dunn hit a three-run homer against the Cleveland Indians on Sept. 24 in Chicago. Dunn was named the American League’s comeback player of the year Tuesday by The Sporting News. because he is coming back from an injury or a miserable season. “I’m very appreciative of this award, but I really wish I never would have won it.” In a conference call with reporters, Dunn didn’t want to talk about 2011, when he had one of the worst statistical seasons
in major league history, batting just .159 with a White Sox record 177 strikeouts. Instead, he reminded reporters that the player they saw in 2012 was a lot more like the player he once was. “It’s not something I haven’t done in eight, nine years,” said
Dunn, who before coming to the White Sox put together a string of seven straight seasons with at least 38 homers. Dunn said he also hasn’t gotten over the disappointment of the Sox coming up short after leading the American League Central before falling behind
the Detroit Tigers at the very end of the season. And it hasn’t helped that the Tigers are now in the World Series. “I was like, ‘It’s going to end up being Detroit because that’s like pouring salt into the wounds,” he said. “And sure enough ....”
NEW LENOX, Ill. — Hall of Fame catcher Carlton Fisk faces charges of driving under the influence and other misdemeanors after being found asleep in his pickup truck in a cornfield, police in suburban Chicago said Tuesday. New Lenox Deputy Chief Robert Pawlisz said officers found Fisk, 64, behind the wheel late Monday with an open bottle of vodka on the truck’s floor. “He was behind the wheel unconscious,” Pawlisz said. Fisk was taken to a hospital for treatment and released from custody after posting bail, Pawlisz said. He has a court appearance scheduled for Nov. 29 in Will County. Besides the DUI charge, he faces charges of lane-use violation and illegal transportation of alcohol. New Lenox is about 35 miles southwest of downtown Chicago. Fisk became part of an unforgettable baseball moment while playing for the Boston Red Sox when he belted a 12th-inning home run that won Game 6 of the 1975 World Series. Fisk played 11 seasons with the Red Sox and 13 with the Chicago White Sox.
