Solar farms to boost University’s use of renewable energy

Students light up Quad for Diwali RSO celebrates Festival of Light with ceremony

BY ILYA GUREVIC STAFF WRITER

The Quad’s paths were aglow with tealights Tuesday night as the Indian Graduate Students Association held a ceremony in observation of Diwali, an Indian celebration marking the triumph of good over evil.

Students and community members lit candles along the paths on the Quad throughout the night. A major tradition of the Hindu holiday is to light candles as a symbol of welcoming home an Indian king.

As the story of Diwali goes, the demon king Ravana kidnapped the wife Sita of Lord Rama while the couple was in exile.

Diwali celebrates Rama killing Ravana, symbolizing “the victory of light over darkness,” said group member and graduate student Ashish Khetan. Indian students who celebrate Diwali shared the meaning of the candles and other traditions with non-Indian students who attended the event. Group members served Indian desserts such as gulab jamun — fried dairy dough balls in flavorful syrup to

represent the sweetness of the occasion.

Attendees traveled from as far away as India to celebrate Diwali in Champaign.

Suranjana Sur Mukherjee traveled from Calcutta, India, to visit her son at Illinois and came to the celebration.

“It was a very beautiful ceremony,” Sur Mukerjee said. “All castes, all creeds, all communities (are) coming together to celebrate. It’s a universal brotherhood.”

Sur Mukherjee added that as Rama and Sita returned to his hometown, the community lit candles to illuminate their way home. The candles on the Quad recreated that scene.

“We celebrate Lakshmi, the goddess of money... When we light all our lamps and ... leave the door open the belief is that Lakshmi will look at all the lighting in your house, and she will come and bless you with money and prosperity,” said Varun Goel, graduate student. “We all get together; there’s worship (and) there’s food. My parents take special care in cleaning their house.”

Kavya Gundavaram, freshman in Engineering, said she valued the opportunity to celebrate on campus.

“I’m from India, so Diwali is a large part of my life, kind of like Thanksgiving here,” Gundavaram said. “It’s the first year I’ve been away from my family (for Diwali).”

Aside from the significance of the event, attendees also enjoyed the aesthetic appeal of the celebration.

A 20.5-acre solar farm may provid the University with 1.8 percent of its energy by this time next year.

The solar farm comes as part of a $15.5 million plan approved Thursday by the board of trustees to move the University closer to its goal of having at least 5 percent of its power grid run on renewable energy by 2015.

Installation on the 20.5 acres of land near First Street and Windsor Road will begin this summer after the land-lease and power-purchase agreements are signed in March. The project is slated to be done in fall 2013.

While the majority of funding will come from campus administration, about $1 million will be covered by the Student Sustainability Committee and roughly $85,000 will be covered by the University’s Facilities and Services unit.

“It is going to be, if not the largest, one of the largest solar projects on any campus in the country,” said Jack Dempsey, executive director of Facilities and Services. “I think it shows the University of Illinois and their students believe in renewable energy, and they’re willing to put the resources (behind it) needed to make it happen.”

The panels purchased from Phoenix Solar Inc. will be lined

The Illinois Student Senate may add another trip to Springfield during veto session in addition to their annual Lobby Day trip.

The senate will discuss the resolution Wednesday at its regular meeting. The resolution calls for the trip to be co-sponsored with the Civic Leadership Program, a University political science program connected to its Cline Center for Democracy.

“With this being an election year, and with a bunch of important issues up right now, we wanted to make sure we gave students the opportunity to go to Springfield and meet the legislators,” said Jordan Hughes, chairwoman for the community and governmental affairs committee, which is sponsoring the resolution, and senior in AHS. Joseph Moseley, senator and sophomore in ACES, said there are hundreds of issues to be dis-

cussed from education to agriculture but said he believes the most prominent issue is the need for bipartisan efforts.

“I think both sides need to answer the call to work together from the president,” he said.

“It speaks volumes when (legislation) passes with a good number of Democrats and a good number of Republicans.”

Moseley said he also believes the trip would be a great experience for himself as well as many other student senators considering careers in politics.

“I’d like to see how it is like to be a state senator, given the nature of politics, given that some of us are aspiring politicians and are using ISS as a trial stage for the future,” he said.

The resolution proposes a $580 allocation to cover the cost of a bus to transport senators to the capital.

“For every kilowatt the solar farm generates, that’s one less the University has to buy from the electricity grid,” said Morgan Johnston, sustainability coordinator for Facilities and Services.

“(The candlelight) makes it beautiful at night ... The fact that we live in this place and can come together and have something like this is really nice,” said Rhea Matar, senior in Education.

For some, the event was not just a religious festival but a symbol of acceptance on campus.

“The candlelighting is something that they do in most Indian households, so it’s kind of cool that the University is embracing it and kind of celebrating the holiday along with the Indian culture,” said Vidhan Desai, senior in Business. “I think it brings some diversity and culture to the campus.”

Solar farm will add to UI’s renewable energy plan The Illinois Climate Action Plan sets a goal of 5 percent of campus energy coming from renewable sources by 2015. The new solar farm is expected to generate 2.1 percent of campus energy by then.

LAS to offer dual degree with computer science in Fall Computer skills in high demand for jobs

BY MADDIE REHAYEM STAFF WRITER

ROCHELLE WILSON THE DAILY ILLINI

The Office of Volunteer Programs collected laundry baskets filled with different non-perishable items to help families in need prepare for a Thanksgiving dinner at the Union on Tuesday.

The College of Liberal Arts and Sciences is set to offer a new degree program for students who want to pursue degrees in LAS and computer science.

Students will soon be able to receive a degree from the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences in a discipline such as psychology or biology and computer science, which is offered by Engineering.

Rob Rutenbar, computer science department head, said the department proposed the program in January 2010, and it will be available for the Fall 2013 semester after it is approved by the Illinois Board of Higher Education.

“The idea of this degree is that you could do computer science plus anthropolo-

GEO garners undergrad support for negotiations

BY TYLER DAVIS STAFF WRITER

The Undergraduate-Graduate Alliance held its fi rst meeting of the school year Tuesday at the University YMCA. This is a group sponsored by the University Graduate Employees’ Organization in order to encourage and facilitate communication between GEO members and undergraduates.

Communication is particularly important to the GEO especially during their contract negotiations with the University, said Juan Bernal, meeting organizer and graduate

ISS

student. Bernal will be on the strike working committee if the GEO’s strike authorization vote passes Friday.

Bernal said the purpose of the meeting was to reach out to undergraduate students for their support.

“If we stand together, we can put a lot more pressure on the administration since we are all students on this campus and (striking) will affect us all,” he said.

He said the GEO needs undergraduate support in the coming weeks to keep negotiations with the federal mediator moving or

to make an efficient strike if negotiations aren’t successful.

Natalye Tate, graduate student, was the first speaker at the meeting, explaining the process of contract negotiations and how long the GEO has been negotiating with the administration. Tate explained the frustration felt among GEO members regarding the University’s lack of communication at the bargaining table, citing the example that the GEO chose 57 hours within three weeks for possible mediation meetings while the University selected 16 of those hours, cancelling one

meeting out of those 16 hours.

“We only have three bargaining sessions left, and we’ve still yet to talk about the big (issues) — tuition waivers, some big issues with healthcare and wages,” Bernal said. “I was there last Friday, and it took them all day to talk about an issue that is not huge.”

Tuition waivers remain an issue of concern for the GEO, Tate said.

“If we don’t receive waivers, a lot of us cannot be here teaching you...because we cannot pay our tuition,” she said.

FROM PAGE 1A surer and graduate student, said the total cost of the trip would be $1,200, but the student senate would be splitting the cost with the Civic Leadership Program.

Max Ellithorpe, senator and graduate student, said unlike other ISS events, such as the funding of a haunted house, it is the senate’s duty to advocate for students by visiting the capital and lobbying for student issues.

“One way to advocate for students is to travel and meet with our elected officials,” he said. “It’s a great way to fight for what we represent.”

If the resolution passes, several senators said they would take the opportunity to question current legislators about the pressing issue of funding for the University.

Matt Gold, senator and senior in LAS, said he believes senators need to push elected officials to pay back the University the money it is owed.

“Too often I feel like the state government ignores the concerns of our flagship university,” he said.

“They owe us a ton of money, and it really puts us in a difficult situation every year when we budget.”

CLEVELAND — A Cleveland woman puffed on a cigarette, wore headphones and ignored passers-by and crowds of reporters as she stood for an hour Tuesday under a judge’s order holding a sign that said, “Only an idiot would drive on the sidewalk to avoid a school bus.”

A Municipal Court judge had ordered 32-year-old Shena Hardin to serve the highly public sentence Tuesday and Wednesday for the Sept. 11 citation after she was caught on camera driving on a sidewalk to pass a Cleveland school bus that was unloading children.

She arrived bundled up against the 34-degree cold at the intersection near downtown Cleveland as passing vehicles honked. Satellite TV trucks streamed the event live.

Hardin refused to comment, as did her mother, who watched from a parked car. A message seeking comment was left for Hardin’s attorneys.

Hardin’s license was sus-

bargain room,” she said. “We want to stay in the classroom.”

But as Bernal noted during his presentation, a strike is the last resort in the GEO’s efforts to negotiate a fair contract.

“If we say yes (to a strike), our membership does believe it’s the only option left,” Bernal said.

The next mediation session will take place Wednesday, and the GEO’s strike authorization vote will run until Thursday.

The votes will be counted on Nov. 16.

for a contract agreement that “reflects difficult economic times we are in, and that appropriately reflects the rights and interests of each side,” said campus spokeswoman Robin Kaler.

“The University remains optimistic that we can reach an agreement with the GEO, without a strike occurring,” Kaler said in an email Saturday. “It was helpful to work with the federal mediator Friday.”

GEO spokeswoman Stephanie Seawell said in an earlier interview that the GEO also wants to reach a fair agreement.

Lisa Kelley, whose 9-year-old daughter boards the bus that Hardin had been passing on the sidewalk, said the sentence fit the crime.

“She’s an idiot, just like her sign says,” Kelley said as she watched Hardin lean against a fence, her head down and her eyes hidden by dark glasses.

“She did this almost every day last year,” Kelley said.

“She won’t stop laughing. She’s not remorseful, she laughed at every court appearance. She’s still laughing, so she needs to be humiliated like this.”

Kelley said she was only sorry the woman was standing in the cold and not the rain or snow.

Bill Lipold, 37, who works nearby in the blue-collar neighborhood of older homes and factories, yelled to Hardin: “Why do you hate kids?” He hopes the punishment works.

“How else are you going to stop her from doing it again?” he said. “She really didn’t show remorse for her action after being caught, so you’ve got to try something.”

With two schools located within two blocks of the location and busy commuter traffic, the area can be risky for youngsters walking to class, Lipold said.

“I’m good, let’s roll. .... This is not gong to defeat me.”

Another general linked to, under investigation in Petraeus affair

BY ROBERT BURNS THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ABOARD A U.S. MILITARY AIRCRAFT — In a new twist to the Gen. David Petraeus sex scandal, the Pentagon said Tuesday that the top American commander in Afghanistan, Gen. John Allen, is under investigation for alleged “inappropriate communications” with a woman who is said to have received threatening emails from Paula Broadwell, the woman with whom Petraeus had an extramarital affair.

Defense Secretary Leon Panetta said in a written statement issued

LAS FROM PAGE 1A gy, which would be really interesting if you wanted to study social networks, or you could do computer science plus chemistry. There’s very interesting stuff going on with computational chemistry today,” said Charles Tucker, associate dean of engineering.

Rutenbar agreed that such combinations, such as the computer science and anthropology major, would allow students to examine platforms such as Twitter “from a very professional, human society point of view.”

The degree is aimed at students who are not pursuing

to reporters aboard his aircraft, en route from Honolulu to Perth, Australia, that the FBI referred the matter to the Pentagon on Sunday.

Panetta said that he ordered a Pentagon investigation of Allen on Monday.

A senior defense official traveling with Panetta said Allen’s communications were with Jill Kelley, who has been described as an unpaid social liaison at MacDill Air Force Base, Fla., which is headquarters to the U.S. Central Command. She is not a U.S. government employee.

Kelley is said to have received

threatening emails from Broadwell, who is Petraeus’ biographer and who had an extramarital affair with Petraeus that reportedly began after he became CIA director in September 2011.

Petraeus resigned as CIA director on Friday.

Allen, a four-star Marine general, succeeded Petraeus as the top American commander in Afghanistan in July 2011.

The senior official, who discussed the matter only on condition of anonymity because it is under investigation, said Panetta believed it was prudent

to launch a Pentagon investigation, although the official would not explain the nature of Allen’s problematic communications. The official said 20,000 to 30,000 pages of emails and other documents from Allen’s communications with Kelley between 2010 and 2012 are under review. He would not say whether they involved sexual matters or whether they are thought to include unauthorized disclosures of classified information. He said he did not know whether Petraeus is mentioned in the emails.

“Gen. Allen disputes that he has engaged in any wrongdoing in this

matter,” the official said. He said Allen currently is in Washington.

Panetta said that while the matter is being investigated by the Defense Department Inspector General, Allen will remain in his post as commander of the International Security Assistance Force, based in Kabul. He praised Allen as having been instrumental in making progress in the war.

The FBI’s decision to refer the Allen matter to the Pentagon rather than keep it itself, combined with Panetta’s decision to allow Allen to continue as Afghanistan commander without a suspension,

suggested strongly that officials viewed whatever happened as a possible infraction of military rules rather than a violation of federal criminal law.

Allen was Deputy Commander of Central Command, based in Tampa, prior to taking over in Afghanistan. He also is a veteran of the Iraq war.

In the meantime, Panetta said, Allen’s nomination to be the next commander of U.S. European Command and the commander of NATO forces in Europe has been put on hold “until the relevant facts are determined.”

computer science degrees but still have to meet the growing demand for computer skills from employers.

“Lots of people who aren’t going to do IT for a living still need to do computational kinds of stuff,” Rutenbar said.

He added that dealing with data and analytics is important in many professions but does not require a computer science degree.

Programs like this have not previously been offered to University students. Double majoring in computer science and LAS is rare because of scheduling and differences in the programs, and majoring in one while only taking a few classes in the other does not provide

sufficient knowledge, Rutenbar said.

He said administrators gauged student interest by noting the increasing amount of students from different academic backgrounds opting to minor in informatics.

“We’re constantly seeing some of our colleagues in other places doing really exciting things, like at the intersection of sociology and computing or the intersection of anthropology and computing,” Rutenbar said.

“Anything that gets the engineers south of Green is good, and anything that gets the LAS guys north of Green is good.”

SOLAR FARM

Action Plan,which set the University’s energy goals, after signing the American College and University’s Presidents’ Climate Commitment. These steps have led the University to set a goal of carbon neutrality by 2050.

Marika Nell, junior in Engineering, said that while costs of renewable energy are high, the implications nonrenewable energy have on health and the environment can create even more expenses.

“The price of nonrenewable energy like coal does not include the environmental costs to it,” Nell said. “It doesn’t include the cost to human health. It seems more expensive, but when you look at the overall costs to our society, it’s not that different.”

Student trustee David Pileski said he wanted to stress solar panels weren’t the only way the University was going to meet the University’s energy goals.

He said the University is also looking into wind technology and more efficient or sustainable combustibles, such as natural gas or biomass, as well as other technologies.

“I think the solar farms are a good symbol of what the University stands for,” Pileski said.

“To see that blend of agriculture, technology and renewable energy, to me, is a bright beacon for the future, and the innovation that is occurring at Illinois.”

“Investing $15.5 million in a new energy source that replaces only 2 percent of (campus power plant) Abbott’s resource usage seems like an inefficient allocation of scarce funding,” said Mitch Hiett, senior in ACES. But Johnston and other backers say the project will recoup some of that money.

What do companies owe society?

Illinois residents deserve progress with Democratic supermajority

E

lection 2012 brought a decisive victory for Democrats in Illinois.

With a supermajority in the state Senate and House supplementing the Democratic governor, there is little doubt that the next few years will be marked by distinctly Democratic policy.

Besides its obvious impact on Republicans, Democrats won five out of the six contended congressional seats and now outnumber Republicans 71- 47 in the House and 40 -19 in the Senate. This reveals just how powerful a role redistricting played last Tuesday.

In 2010, a Democrat-controlled governor’s office and Legislature redrew political boundaries that significantly limited competition for Democratic candidates in many districts. As a result, the sweeping seat gains will enable the Democratic congress to override Gov. Pat Quinn’s veto power.

House Speaker Michael Madigan and Senate President John Cullerton are now arguably the real muscle behind the Illinois political machine.

With less Republican resistance, Democrats will likely be able to push policies more quickly and easily through the legislative process. This may prove to be beneficial for a state that urgently needs reform in its spending.

Without Republican opposition, the blame for any legislation that doesn’t get pushed through or any that fails will rest with the Democrats.

Yet without opposition, one of the key mechanisms to moderate and balance the state’s political policy has taken a major hit. Now, the responsibility lies even more heavily on the people to hold their representatives accountable for passing legislation and creating programs that meet their needs.

Democratic leaders need to take extra precaution to strike a balance between tax hikes and spending cuts.

Shortly after the 2010 elections, unpopular tax hikes passed, which increased the income tax by 67 percent and corporate tax by 46 percent.

That gives Illinois the fourthhighest corporate tax rate in the nation.

These taxes are certainly intended to drag the state of Illinois out of its economic crisis, but the government has a responsibility to also observe frugality and achieve balance.

Especially in a presidential election year, it’s easy for the local elections to be drowned out by all of the press and publicity swirling around a competitive race to the White House — yet some of the most significant legislation to our everyday lives comes from our state Legislature.

We often look to the Oval Office and Capitol Hill for reform, but voters and citizens must remain vigilant to what is happening on the state level.

There needs to be a collective consciousness of Illinois’ political process given the current fragility of the Illinois economy, and state residents must hold their leaders — Democrats and Republicans alike — accountable to their promise to move forward.

time to put those policies in place. In this proposed draft on how to appoint health insurance exchange board members, it suggested that the governor, general assembly and attorney general include representatives of insurance companies. Additionally, the exchange board would have the power to form a technical advisory committee, whom insurers would be among.

The primary issue with this would be that it raises a clear conflict of interest; very easily and very often, “consumer advocacy agencies and big insurance companies butt heads,” Lenhoff said. This effectively would stall the progress such a board would make.

The state may have until the end of the month to submit its draft of plans for the exchange, and it may be well ahead of several other states. But the Legislature cannot delay addressing the governing and funding of such a large project. States like California, Maryland and Oregon have already both identified a source of revenue and prohibited representation from insurance companies on their boards. It’s time for the state to take the next steps and define the grounds on which we tread, before contracting a bid to start building the exchange.

reshmen Business students know all too well about the concept of professional responsibility: What do I owe to myself, my company and the world at large? The final third of the semesterlong course is dedicated to the question of what companies owe society. This question, once the topic of theoretical debate, is becoming reality, not just in the classroom but in greater happenings around the world and here in the states.

The reality is seen in the likes of the once-relevant Occupy movement or the impending capital gains tax increases that are likely to be a part in any grand bargain to avert the fiscal cliff.

Never before has such a frontal attack on the pure profit motive of business been attempted since the populist movement that rode on the United States on the backs of farmers set against the business world in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Now the buzzword of social responsibility has transcended the gap between politics and business and populist ideals of accountability to the “greater good,” and a “social conscience” is becoming ever more popular, even on Wall Street.

But what is society if not the summation of individuals with differing ideals and preferences? It is impossible to fully respond to the concerns of everybody in society because everybody is different.

The values of someone are inherently different from the values of another, and these values have to be ranked in order of preference. Corporations cannot do that and instead are forced to rely on — and are only responsible to — shareholders and customers.

These two swaths of the public are a far more effective representative sample to showcase the interests of society than the aggregate of the entire population because both groups already have a vested interest in the future of the company and their own individual interests. The best way corporations and individuals serve the interests of society is by serving their own individual interests.

When I walk into a store as a customer, I expect certain things. Before I purchase anything, I am finding the answers to several questions that matter as much or more than the price of my desired item.

How are the employees treated? How are the employees treating me? Are the aesthetics and arrangements done so in a desirable way? Do they have this in my size? The importance of these questions and many others will vary for each individual, and these differences play a tremendous role in market-based decisions.

While I have been subconsciously asking these questions only upon entry, the owners of the store have already been asking themselves for sometimes weeks or months in advance how I as a consumer would answer these questions. If I buy their product, they know they have been successful. If I and enough others refrain, their business will have to change to meet society’s expectations or leave the marketplace.

This is the beauty of the profit motive and the free market. Corporations are forced to respond to changes in customer behavior and preferences. If they do not, they lose and another organization will rise to meet the challenge. Customers are ultimately responsible for the actions of the company, as businesses can only respond to situations with any real effectiveness. The money that flows through consumers’ pocketbooks dictates where the company will go and how it values scarce goods.

Like a loyal pet, corporations’ true allegiances lie with that of their owners.

Shareholders provide the direct vehicle for any real social change, with the customer always in the driver’s seat.

So what do corporations owe society?

Better yet, what do they owe me? The pursuit of their own selfish interests. If I am a customer, I provide the testing grounds for corporations. If their practices or procedures are not meeting an acceptable standard, then their venture will fail by me. The corporation continually works on my behalf to improve the quality of my visit or product in the tried-and-true hope that they will be monetarily rewarded. If I am a shareholder in the corporation, the company owes me the flexibility to ensure the customer is getting a fair deal and returns on my investment.

If I am in neither of these two groups, the business owes me nothing but to follow the law. I am making my statement and choice by willfully not being in either group, and I am not entitled to make others’ choices for them.

The Occupy movement and the increase in capital gains tax represent different facets of the greater corporate social responsibility movement. With the fiscal cliff looming, and a governmental branch-and-a-half in favor of promoting this agenda, there is a possibility that the profit motive of business will be blunted. In effect, the greatest social catalyst of change will be damaged in the name of social change.

GIF is word of the year over YOLO JOHN BUYSSE Opinions columnist

W

ith each passing year, popular culture welcomes the heavy usage of new words and phrases for an indefinite period of time. Eventually, these terms go from daily mentions to casual references to reminisce-about-when-it-was“big” nostalgia.

It also seems that with each passing year, these societal inside jokes for a given year are becoming more and more common. This is in large part due to the rise of the Internet and social media sites that promote hashtagging, meme production and so much more.

Although there is no official start or finish to when these words are relevant, Oxford American Dictionary somewhat catalogues these short-lived cultural icons by annually inducting a “word of the year.”

This year, the term GIF, short for graphics interchange format, took home the top prize.

The word deserves the recognition.

In use since the ’80s, the Internet became a playground for these flashing images throughout the year of 2012.

As a result, GIF will always be remembered by Oxford American Dictionary.

What happens to the other 2012 terms though?

Do they float off into irrelevance, only to be remembered when looking through old Facebook posts between you and your friends?

The reason I ask is because one my favorite and least favorite words of 2012 lost out to GIF — YOLO. This acronym-turned-word swept into the American pop culture lexicon within the last year.

YOLO, short for “you only live once,” is most commonly used by teens and 20-somethings in situations where they are about to do something that they might not normally do like take a spontaneous road trip or spend money on an extravagant night out. Other times, it is used in inconsequential situations such as ordering an extra shot of espresso or watching TV instead of going to the gym for a work out.

The beauty of YOLO is that it can apply to any situation and carry the same core meaning.

In its early days, I used YOLO somewhat frequently as it became second nature and inescapable on a college campus.

Overall, though, the use of the word has become tired, and it appears to be entering its twilight as a go-to phrase for Internet users and friend groups alike.

No matter how it is used, its temporary relevance to our culture is undeniable.

Past words of the year include LOL, OMG and Nom Nom. LOL means “laughing out loud.”

OMG means “oh my gosh.” Nom nom is just a fun way of talking about food and eating.

While past words are simply interjections, YOLO has meaning.

For example, earlier this year I intended to spend a Friday night studying for the several exams that were coming

up in the next week. On this same night, my good friend Tom was planning to attend the Best Coast concert, which was part of the Pygmalion Music Festival.

About a half hour after telling him I had to study that night, the term I had somewhat frequently used in much less important situations entered into my mind and would not leave.

YOLO. You only live once.

In 30 years, when my own kids are going to college, I won’t be telling them about the time I studied for exams on a Friday, I will tell them about the fun memories I made on campus.

Studying right then and there was not a life-or-death situation, and I still had time to study on Saturday and Sunday. So, I went to the concert.

This scenario likely doesn’t sound like a life lesson moment, but it is a perfect example of how reminding yourself that you only live once can open your mind and heart to living life to its fullest.

Unfortunately, this 2012 popculture-staple-turned-life-lesson will fade into obscurity once our societal ADD kicks in and new words are created.

Before YOLO fades, soak up its true meaning and live life accordingly. This might mean skipping a class to catch up on “Breaking Bad.” It might mean ordering that extra shot of espresso. It might mean finally committing to study abroad.

No matter what it means to you, just remember — YOLO.

Illinois needs to advance health care NORA IBRAHIM Opinions columnist

P

resident Barack Obama’s re-election last week officiated his controversial Affordable Care Act on the federal level, but the wheels are still turning for state-level aspects of the law on health care reform.

One of the key tenets of Obamacare to be adopted by every state is the development of a health insurance exchange program, an online marketplace for all citizens to purchase insurance, compare rates and learn whether they qualify for federal subsidy. The Obama administration extended the deadline for all states to submit their plans for such an exchange from this Friday to mid-December, to allow for lagging states to make final calls.

As of publication, Illinois is one of a few states that has decided that it will build a state-run health insurance exchange, not run jointly with the federal government. It is 1 of 15 states processing and developing some form of an exchange. Since the exchange was signed off via legislation, Illinois has been reviewing five potential online vendors to build the exchange.

“We do it ourselves, we do it right,” said Claudia Lennhoff, executive director of Champaign County Health Care Consumers. “Because the exchange will have the authority to regulate the health insurance products that are sold in the

exchange, from the consumer’s perspective, we want to see it in consumer’s control.”

The benefits of a state-run exchange will be readily seen for Illinois residents. According to Illinois officials, the exchange is projected to insure roughly 800,000 in 2014 and over 1 million residents by 2020. Additionally, the easy access of the market smoothes out troubles inherent in the search for private or group insurance. This is especially true for uninsured University students looking to graduate soon.

“Students are very familiar with using that (online) technology. It will be a very natural way to shop for insurance,” Lenhoff said.

As much as there is to celebrate, there are a number of things to chew off Illinois’ plate before it can reap the benefits of the exchange in 2014 — namely, how it decides to appoint its governing body and how it funds the site.

In 2011, a legislative committee was formed to make recommendations on the governance, board membership and avenues of revenue for the exchange, but since the end of 2011, it has not made any conclusive effort or push toward finalizing these details, according to the Commonwealth Fund. Though they had released a thorough report on its suggestions in October 2011, they are quickly losing

According to Illinois officials, the exchange is projected to insure roughly 800,000 in 2014 and over 1 million residents by 2020.

Perception of time can change, researchers say

BY ROHAINA HASSAN STAFF WRITER

Fear is an emotion that arises out of response to physical and emotional danger. When Neville Longbottom was faced with Severus Snape in “Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban,” time slowed down and his heart started racing. Lupin stepped in and told him to focus, and all of a sudden Snape was dressed in Longbottom’s grandmother’s clothes.

Although Simona Buetti and Alejandro Lleras did not aim to prove J.K. Rowling right, they did find some inspiration from ’70s literature that talked about timeperception and control.

This is why Lleras, associate professor in psychology, and Buetti, postdoctoral research associate, worked together to uncover the secrets behind how we perceive time and how that changes with good or bad events.

Lleras had previously worked on time perception, and Buetti worked with arachnophobic individuals, and they brought their respective expertise together to create this study.

“I started, I was interested in neuropsychology. I was really interested in the brain and how

the brain could predict some types of behavior,” Buetti said.

Before joining the field of psychology, Lleras was on the path to become an engineer. He took a cognitive psychology class as a general education requirement and said he was transformed by it.

“I don’t really think there’s anything more captivating than the mind, the human mind. I dropped everything and switched my major to psychology,” he said.

Over the course of a year, Lleras and Buetti used a basic prescreening questionnaire to test a sample group of voluntary participants until they whittled down the subject pool. They performed five individual experiments during which the participants were shown a variety of images based on the level of emotional arousal it might generate. Some of these images included mops, roller coasters and spiders.

There was a nonanxious group and a arachnophobic group, and each group was asked to report how long the images were display after viewing them. While the spider-fearful participants reported that the images lasted longer, all of the images were displayed for the same time for both groups.

Spider-fearful participants got anxious throughout the study, especially closer to the end.

“The only thing that mattered to them was if it was positive or negative. They saw the world in black-and-white,” Lleras explained.

Their research demonstrates that in the human mind it appears when something that is both highly arousing and negative, we perceive the experience to last longer. If it is highly arousing and positive, however, we imagine that it was short and quick.

When the circumstances are inverted — low arousal and negative or low arousal and positive — the results were completely opposite.

While many of their original questions were answered, Buetti and Lleras found they had another group of questions lined up already. They hope to delve deeper into the mechanisms that force us to act, or how personalities might shape our perceptions. They are in the process of creating another study to refine their current results.

When Dohner started practicing medicine in Rushville in 1955, he charged $2, but has since raised it to $5.

Ill. doctor charges $5 for visits Dohner on call despite rising health care costs THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

RUSHVILLE — Patients line up early outside his office just off the town square, waiting quietly for the doctor to arrive, as he has done for nearly 60 years.

Dr. Russell Dohner is, after all, a man of routine, a steady force to be counted on in uncertain times.

Wearing the fedora that has become his trademark, he walks in just before 10 a.m., after rising early to make rounds at the local hospital. There are no appointments. He takes his patients in the order they sign in — first come, first-served.

His office has no fax machines or computers. Medical records are kept on hand-written index cards, stuffed into row upon row of filing cabinets.

The only thing that has changed, really — other than the quickness of the doctor’s step or the color of his thinning hair —

According to LIVESTRONG’s fitness page, you can burn about 526 calories per hour playing flag or two-hand touch football. Notice the words “friendly” and “flag” in front of football. A visit to the Emergency Room would certainly put a damper on all the festivities.

Yep, loading the dishwasher for 30 minutes can burn 105 calories, according to FitDay.com. It’s the best revenge on the lazy family members parked on the couch.

is his fee. When Dohner started practicing medicine in Rushville in 1955, he charged the going rate around town for an office visit: $2.

Now it is $5.

This in an era when the cost of healthcare has steadily risen, when those who don’t have medical insurance often forgo seeing a doctor. But not Dohner’s patients. He doesn’t even accept medical insurance — says it’s not worth the bother.

“I always just wanted to be a doctor to help people with their medical problems and that’s all it’s for .,” the 87-year-old family physician says. “It was never intended to make a lot of money.”

Being a doctor, helping and providing a service — that has been his goal since he was a boy.

One of seven children, Dohner grew up on a farm just north of Rushville, outside the little town of Vermont, Ill. His father had hoped he’d take up farming, too. But young Dohner had other ideas, inspired by the town doctor who’d treated him when he had seizures as a child.

“I remember waking up and seeing the doctor there and thinking, ‘THAT is what I want to do,’” he says.

It’s no secret that the amount of calories shoveled into your body will far outweigh the meager work of lifting the fork to your mouth. But if you let dear old Aunt Agnes take that last chair, or bite your tongue when cousin Joe snags that last cozy space in front of the TV, you will burn 50 calories more standing than sitting per hour, according to LIVESTRONG’s weight management webpage.

And they’ll think you’re just being polite.

After serving in the Army in World War II, Dohner went to Western Illinois University, paying for his education with funds provided by the G.I. bill.

In the early 1950s, he attended Northwestern University’s medical school.

He had his sights set on becoming a cardiologist and thought about staying in the big city. But when a doctor in Rushville asked him to put off his heart specialist studies to practice medicine back at home, he agreed to do so, at least for a little while.

Then that doctor left town.

“So I couldn’t very well leave,” Dohner says. “That’s just the way it worked out.”

It was a sacrifice, yes. His young wife didn’t want to stay in such a small town, he says, and so their marriage ended.

He never remarried and instead dedicated his life to his work, only leaving this small central Illinois town for medical conferences over the years, never taking a true vacation.

Even when the medical profession changed around him, he was always on call, ready to drop everything for a patient. friends and pausing for that one day to remember just how much we have to be thankful for. So don’t stress yourself about one day of indulgence; the Boston Globe said the average American will consume over 3,000 calories (almost the equivalent of one pound) during their Thanksgiving Day feast, and I don’t know anyone who would be willing to spend six hours playing flag football with the family to burn it off.

New lease on life UI student thankful for doctor who cured her mysterious pain

CONTRIBUTING WRITER

hanksgiving is a time to rejoice and appreciate family, friends and delicious seasonal food assembled on the dinner table. But for some, the smell of pumpkin pie and turkey stuffi ng doesn’t stir up the usual warm festive feelings associated with this holiday. They only produce powerful, sharp stomachaches.

For five months, Kristin Goffi net, senior in LAS, opened her eyes every morning to an instantaneous surge of pain. Beginning last October, each day was a battle against her body and coming out victorious seemed like a distant goal. No matter what Goffi net attempted to eat, she simply could not keep it down.

Her days were fi lled with persistent nausea, horrible upper abdominal pain and constant exhaustion from not eating — all leading to a rapid weight loss of about 20 pounds.

“You get so hungry. You think, ‘Okay, maybe I’ll just have a cracker.’ But then it didn’t matter what it was, because you would still feel that pain,” she said. “It would last for hours.

It’s debilitating.”

With no energy to get up in the morning to go to class, Goffi net began searching for the cause to her incapacitating pain. She became a frequent patient at McKinley Health Center, Provena Covenant Medical Center and the emergency room as doctors took blood samples and ran CT scans and MRIs. “They ran every test in the books. They did everything they could think of,” Goffi net said. “But no one could give me a solid answer. And it wasn’t getting better — it was only getting worse.”

It was only after a visit to the University of Chicago Medical Center in early December that Goffi net fi nally found herself in the

right hands. The man who saved her life was Though her life is completely different Dr. Donald Liu, section chief of pediatric sur- from how it was a year ago, Goffi net hasn’t gery and surgeon-in-chief at the University of forgotten about the hard times.

“He was a terrific doctor, a sweet person, and super smart and skilled. We knew all that. But the more I have learned about him ... it is clear how lucky we were.”

here’s no doubt about it: When we think Thanksgiving, we think food.

Period. We dream of tables heaped high with golden turkey, mounds of mashed potatoes, savory stuffing and baskets piled high with warm bread rolls. And then there’s a lot of sitting — sitting around the table, around the TV as football teams charge across the screen, maybe going to see that movie that was released Thanksgiving day or paging through the ads for Black Friday deals. The result?

We let those countless calories sit and melt onto us like the spoonfuls of gravy that drown our plates.

So if you’re considering going to the movie theater, instead of adding 1,000 calories of salty movie theater popcorn drenched in butter to the already-overwhelming amounts of turkey protruding from your stomach, get up and get moving.

Haul out the holiday decorations Nobody likes climbing through the dusty crawl space or digging through heavy boxes to fi nd those buried decorations from last year, but you will usually fi nd something interesting and the physical activity will hopefully bring you out of your postturkey coma. Of course, this is reserved for those who are at home for the holiday — but maybe you could spread some Thanksgiving cheer by helping your grandparents haul out their decorations. ‘Tis the season.

Gear up for Black Friday shopping Use those stored-up calories for the rush of the Black Friday crowds. A typical shopper can walk up to 2.96 miles and burn about 150 calories per hour — but depending on the urgency of the deals, the dash for the last product on the shelf, not to mention the many bags to carry, can significantly increase that number. Put on your walking shoes, my friends, and let the holiday shopping begin.

Illinois one of nation’s most vegan-friendly universities

BY BAILEY BRYANT STAFF WRITER

In addition to supporting animal rights issues, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals holds an annual Most Vegan-Friendly College Contest, currently in its fi nal round.

In early October, PETA’s youth division peta2 launched the seventh annual contest, which has two divisions, large and small.

Thirty-two schools were chosen to enter each division and then pitted against each other in a single-elimination tournament. The University of Illinois was one of the schools included in the large division. The end of the contest will result in one victor from each

division holding the title of PETA’s Most Vegan-Friendly College.

The contest has four rounds and a fi nal matchup. In each round, schools must defeat a predetermined opponent in order to advance. The winner of each round is determined by the number of votes a school receives, the quality and quantity of different vegan dishes offered, the school’s enthusiasm about vegan options and student feedback, according to the PETA website.

“We decided to start the contest in response to the overwhelming demand on college campuses for delicious and cruelty-free dining options,” said Ryan Huling, PETA’s manager of College Campaigns and Outreach.

A PETA news release reported that, according to Bon Appétit, the amount of college kids who are vegetarian has doubled and the number of vegan students has increased by more than 50 percent since the Vegan-Friendly College Contest began in 2006.

The University was ranked as PETA’s eighth-most-vegan-friendly college in last year’s contest.

This year, PETA called Illinois a “standout school” because of the various vegan options in each dining hall.

However, the University advanced to the third round before falling to the University of North Texas.

Although the University of Illinois didn’t win, many vegetarian and veg-

an students say they are still proud to attend a school that accommodates their lifestyles.

“It means absolutely the world to me (to go to a school so accepting of my lifestyle) because outside in the ‘real world,’ it’s sometimes difficult to go out with friends and fi nd places that have vegan and vegetarian options,” said Katherine Rola, freshman in DGS. Jamie Zouras, sophomore in ACES, said dining even played a part in her residency. She said she chose to live in Ikenberry Commons because she knew the dining hall had several clearly marked vegetarian options.

“It’d defi nitely be harder (if the dining hall didn’t have vegan options), and

I think it’d impact my health,” Zouras said. “Without having these options, I’d probably resort to less healthy snacking and it’d be really inconvenient if I had to go buy protein substitutes.”

Swaminath Srinivas, Ph.D. student in Engineering, said the vegetarian accommodations at the University are especially helpful to international students.

“Coming from India, most of us are vegetarian, so it’s really great that there are so many options here,” Srinivas said.

With its vegan dining options, the University is doing more than cater-

Penalty kicks lead to victories

The legacy of No. 73, the honoring of Curtis Speed

BY CHARLIE MANIATES STAFF WRITER

PORTRAIT BY BRENTON TSE THE DAILY ILLINI

Illinois forward Barrera details the significance of what his jersey stands for

BY STEPHEN BOURBON AND PATRICK KELLEY STAFF WRITER

The metallic blue Buick careened down the cold South Side Chicago streets. Suspects in a drive-by shooting, Jerry Dean and Joseph Chambers were not focused on anything but escaping the law. With their minds elsewhere, they didn’t see Curtis Speed crossing the street on his way from a dance at Robert Black South Elementary School. Without slowing down, the Buick struck the 11-year-old, dragging him half a block into an almost empty school bus. No skid marks were left.

Curtis Speed was killed on Feb. 18, 1995. When Scott Barrera, forward for the Illinois hockey team, dons the No. 73, he is representing much more than himself.

Although he never played hockey with Speed — Barrera is five years younger than him — he wears Curtis’ number to commemorate his life.

But the tribute began with Barrera’s

older brother, Joe, in mourning of Curtis’ passing.

Joe was the captain of the hockey team that Speed played for in 1994-95. Joe said the leadership position was a big deal at the time, so he took it upon himself to take Speed’s number the following season to keep the memory of his late teammate alive.

“When you’re at that age and you’re appointed captain, it’s a big deal and you try to be a leader in different ways,” Joe said. “Everyone respected my decision.”

Five years older than Scott, Joe was the first Barrera to lace up the skates and play hockey. Looking up to his brother, 5-year-old Scott would tag along to Joe’s 8 a.m. practices, piquing his interest in the sport.

“Growing up, for a little while, I was better than (Scott) mainly because I was older,” Joe said. “It quickly became apparent that he had a special talent. ...

He basically took it and ran with it.”

Scott escalated through the hockey ranks, eventually playing for travel squad Team Illinois at 16. It was at this time he joined his brother, in dedication to Curtis’ memory, in wearing 73 for the first time.

The number never left. Scott took the number with him while playing junior hockey in Wasilla, Alaska, and back to Springfield where he played on the Junior Blues.

After explaining the story to the coach, See HOCKEY, Page 4B Cassel offered Scott a deal.

“It felt better; it felt like myself. It felt weird putting on a number that you know isn’t yours.”

When the Illinois soccer team began practicing penalty kicks, one thing was clear: The postseason was about to start.

In collegiate soccer, postseason games can’t end in a tie; following two overtime periods, teams compete in best-of-five penalty kicks with the hopes of advancing to the next round, which ride entirely on just a few 12-yard strikes.

The practice has paid off for the Illini, as they have competed in penalty kicks twice in just four postseason games so far. Both resulted in wins: The first was an opening-round victory of the Big Ten Tournament against Minnesota, with a 3-2 score in penalty kicks, while the second was a 3-0 sweep against Missouri in the first round of the NCAA tournament on Saturday. Senior goalkeeper Steph Panozzo saved both shots that were on target, leading the Illini to the second round at North Carolina, head coach Janet Rayfield’s alma mater.

“Penalty kicks right now, Steph Panozzo owns,” Rayfield said in a Monday press conference. “When you start a penalty kick shootout on the road with a save by your goalkeeper, it certainly gives you confidence, and you could see in the body language of the Missouri team (that) there was dejection sort of right from the get-go.”

Missouri had a number of chances in the overtime periods to grab the win, so advancing to penalty kicks was a relief for the Illini.

“The overtime was more challenging on my heart than the PKs were, to be honest,” Rayfield said.

One would think that going into a tough situation like this, the pressure is on the goalkeeper to keep her team in it. Panozzo, however, takes a different mental approach when she steps into the penalty box.

Following the victory against Missouri, Panozzo said she feels that the weight of the team is on the shooters. She said she simply stays loose and makes the saves that she knows she can, rather than worry about the ones that are out of her reach, something that can be common when opponents are striking from 12 yards out.

“I think we have a goalkeeper who has the right mindset going

Illinois’ newfound commitment to winning special teams is even more obvious on defense.

Groce used situational substitutions, sometimes bringing in 6-foot-11 center Nnanna Egwu solely to attempt to deny the inbounds pass, and often implemented a zone defense when Colgate and St. Francis inbounded the ball.

Freshman forward plays big role in women’s basketball opener

BY JOHNATHAN HETTINGER STAFF WRITER

Illinois women’s basketball forward McKenzie Piper ran out of the tunnel in Assembly Hall for an actual Division I NCAA basketball game for the first time Sunday. Following a parade of cheerleaders, the freshman was greeted by the school song and an above-average sized crowd of 1,625. Just three minutes and 25 seconds into her first game, Piper was taken off the bench and thrust into the action. She didn’t get a rest until seconds were left in the first half.

“As a freshman, there’s a lot thrown at you,” head coach Matt Bollant said.

In addition to playing 17 minutes in her first half of college

basketball, Piper was forced to play an unfamiliar position.

“Sometimes today, Piper was playing the five (center),” Bollant said after Sunday’s 84-52 win over Evansville. “She hasn’t played any five yet, so it’s time to learn and it’s time to step up.”

The freshman from Iowa City stepped up when it counted.

Because of early foul trouble to starters Kersten Magrum and Karisma Penn, Piper was called on for 25 minutes in her career opener, and she took advantage, scoring 14 points and grabbing seven rebounds.

“I’m proud of her,” Bollant said. “You could tell she was tired at times, but she kept fighting.”

Piper is listed in the program

as a guard, but the 6-footer has cracked into the frontcourt rotation along with Penn, Magrum and Nia Oden.

The former guard showed that she isn’t afraid to make her presence known outside of the paint, converting two of six 3-point attempts and finishing 4-for-4 at the foul line.

Defensive adjustments For the first time this season, Illinois got into foul trouble Sunday.

With four starters committing at least two first-half fouls, Bollant decided to switch the defense from man-to-man to the “buzz” defense, which Bollant described as a 2-1-2 zone that

plays the passing lanes.

“It’s unique to women’s basketball,” he said. “There’s a lot of teams trying to run it, but not many teams will run it as aggressively as our players. Not many teams will play as hard in it as we do.”

Bollant said he didn’t know where the name for the defense came from, but some other teams who run it call it the “twilight” defense.

“It needs to be called the “buzz” because nobody runs it as well as we will,” he said.

“It’s a style of defense that most teams don’t see. It’s unique to Illinois and it’s going to give people fits.”

The Illini ran the “buzz” and their man-to-man defenses well

on Sunday, holding the Purple Aces to 25.5 percent from the field, including 15 percent from behind the arc. Illinois also forced 26 turnovers and outrebounded Evansville 52-36. Illinois’ 25 fouls allowed Evansville 38 free-throw attempts.

Starting off strong Bollant became the fourth head coach in program history to win his first game at Illinois.

He joined former head coaches Laura Golden, Theresa Grentz and Jolette Law. Both Golden and Grentz lost their second games, while Law didn’t lose until her third.

Sunday’s 32-point margin of victory was the most by any of

the coaches. Law won her first game by 30 points.

Illinois’ new head coach also won his first game at WisconsinGreen Bay and Bryant College.

Bollant never lost a season opener at Green Bay. None of the players on the current roster had won their season opener at Illinois until Sunday, suffering defeats to Temple, Illinois State and South Carolina, respectively, in the last three seasons.

Illinois was one of 10 Big Ten schools to win its season opener. Indiana and Ohio State lost to Valparaiso and Notre Dame, respectively.

Illinois' Graham Pocic guards Nathan Scheelhaase during the game against Penn State at Memorial Stadium on Sept. 29.

Illini offensive line will have hands full with Purdue’s Short

BY SEAN HAMMOND STAFF WRITER

Despite the 17-3 loss to Minnesota on Saturday, senior offensive lineman Graham Pocic thought he saw some improvements from the front five. But when the Illinois football team takes the field for this week’s senior day matchup with Purdue, it may be facing the best defensive lineman the team has seen all season.

At 6-foot-3, 315 pounds, senior defensive tackle Kawann Short is an unmistakable presence at the front of the Purdue defense.

Short’s 13 tackles for loss are more than double the number any of his teammates have reached.

He also has five sacks. To put that into perspective, not a single Illini defender has double-digit tackles for loss, or more than 2.5 sacks on the season.

“He’s probably the best defensive lineman we’ll play all year,” Pocic said. “Watching film, he definitely causes trouble for oppos-

ing teams to block. We’ve played against him the last two years, and we expect a dogfight against him.”

The Illini will spend a lot of energy trying to contain Short, but he is not the only threat on the Purdue defense. The Boilermakers give a lot of different looks and play a multitude of defensive backs. Sixteen Boilermaker defenders have played in all 10 games and have double-digit tackles on the season.

“They’re going to be tough to move,” Illinois co-offensive coordinator Billy Gonzales said.

“They’ve rotated six backers consistently. That’s the one thing that they’ve done a good job of, they’ve rotated their players a ton. They’ll play four corners.”

The only two defenders who Gonzales expects to be on the field the entire game are safeties Landon Feichter and Taylor Richards. Feichter leads Purdue with 61 tackles. The offensive staff

expects to see a lot of man-to-man coverage from Purdue.

Despite the Boilermakers’ weapons on the defensive side, Purdue ranks second to last in the Big Ten in total defense.

That would seem to be a reason for optimism for Illinois, but the Illini offense ranks dead last in the Big Ten. “I think that’s one of our biggest issues is that we just haven’t had enough big plays,” co-offensive coordinator Chris Beatty said.

“When we get opportunities, it’s like I told our guys, ‘You can’t hit long foul balls.’ When we get our shots, we’ve got to make them count.”

Beatty said the Illinois offense is frustrated at this point in the season. He said Illinois running backs need to stop trying to make a big play on every down, settling for a four- or five-yard gain when appropriate, which will eventually open up the field a little bit more.

With a last-second field goal to

beat Iowa 27-24 last week, Purdue broke a five-game losing streak and picked up its first conference victory. If the Boilermakers win their final two games, they would become bowl eligible for the second straight season for the first time in 10 years.

But with Saturday’s matchup being the final game in Champaign for the Illinois seniors, the Illini want to send them off on a high note. And to do that, they will have to keep an eye on Short.

“They’re a heavy blitz team, they defi nitely get after it up front,” quarterback Nathan Scheelhaase said. “They throw a lot of different looks at you to try to get you confused. You have to be able to know the keys and certain tendencies that they have with what they do. They are definitely a team that likes to throw a lot of different looks at you.”

elieve it or not, the fantasy season is rapidly approaching the end. It’s almost playoff time. Start managing like it.

If you’re near the bottom of the standings or on the outside looking in at the playoff picture, make some moves. But don’t be reckless. Be sensible.

There are two routes for acquiring players: trades and waivers. Utilize both. If you decide to take the trade route, then you need to think about week-by-week performances, taking into consideration lateseason production. Who can you rely on when it matters most, Week 14 and later? You can’t rely on teams coasting through the end of the season with playoff berths already wrapped up (Falcons and Texans). If the team has nothing to play for, the players don’t play.

Example: Don’t trade for Roddy White. Excellent receiver, yes, but come fantasy playoff time, he’s on the bench drinking Gatorade and chatting with Julio Jones (don’t trade for him, either) about the Saturday night Atlanta bar scene. He’ll be having a great time. You’ll be losing.

An infi nitely wiser decision would be to trade for players in the NFC East and NFC North. Percy Harvin, Aaron Rodgers, Brandon Marshall and others will be fighting to the bitter end for the division title, so their effort will be at top level. Perfect for fantasy production. Leech off that effort for a title of your own.

On the waiver wire, the players to look for are those with high ceilings. A Michael Bush-type player — someone who bruises defenses and gets goal-line touchdowns — isn’t the player you want at this time of the season. They’re solid but not special. Instead, you want game breakers. You want a speedster running back who’s just now realizing his potential. You want the big-

play receiver who’s moved up the depth chart and now gets eight targets a game. You want 25-point potential players.

These two players bring that type of promise.

Jacquizz Rodgers (running back, Falcons, 11.4 percent owned in ESPN leagues) — Michael Turner is done. Completely done. Turner the Burner and I go way back (2010), so I’ve had a hard time coming to terms with it. In fact, I’ve been in denial. But it’s true. He hit that devastating “30 years of age” threshold for running backs and lost all his talent. A running back over 30 is like a horse with a broken leg.

Rodgers is the young stallion who is waiting in the stable for trainers to clear Turner’s broken-down body off the track. The Falcons haven’t let him run free yet, as evidenced by his zero rushing touchdowns this year, but Rodgers has all the tools. And they’ll let him run soon enough. How do I know? See “don’t trade for Falcons” section above. Just when Turner hits the bench to rest for the postseason, Rodgers fi nally gets his chance to shoulder the load of the Atlanta backfield.

I’m expecting a monster performance from him in the fi nal weeks of the season.

Danario Alexander (wide receiver, Chargers, 0.1 percent owned) — Alexander has a long history of knee troubles, which led to him being a free agent for a large portion of this season. But midway through October, he signed with the Chargers. Then he began working his way up the depth chart. Now, he’s the No. 2 receiver in San Diego and the No. 1 target of quarterback Phillip Rivers.

And to fi nally prove his return to fantasy prominence, he caught five passes for 134 yards and one touchdown last week.

Volleyball’s seniors remember how they changed Illini culture

BY DANIEL MILLER-MCLEMORE STAFF WRITER

Heading into the season’s penultimate week of competition, the Illinois volleyball team (11-15, 5-11 Big Ten) is fighting for its life to make the NCAA tournament.

With wins in their fi nal four games, the Illini will become eligible for postseason play. A tough schedule and strong RPI makes it a potential bubble team, but for the first time since 2007, Illinois will not host the first- and secondround tournament games.

So when the Illinois volley-

ball team takes the court against Michigan and Michigan State this weekend, it will be the fi nal two times the team’s five seniors — Jackie Wolfe, Annie Luhrsen, Erin Johnson, Taylor Onion and Jessica Jendryk — play under the lights of Huff Hall.

“I’m gonna be really sad,” Wolfe said. “I can’t believe that senior night came. Oh, I’m gonna cry, it came so fast. It’s probably going to be really emotional.

Everyone’s just been joking, ‘We should just get a bucket to pick up Jackie’s tears on Saturday.’ So it’s really sad. It’s been an amazing

four years and I just don’t want it to end.”

The five seniors have been a part of some of the most successful teams in the program’s history. They entered the program at the same time then-assistant Kevin Hambly took over the head coaching position from Don Hardin in 2009. Since that time, the five seniors have helped the Illini to a 93-35 record, three appearances in the Sweet 16 and the lone national championship appearance in the program’s history, finishing second to UCLA in 2011.

But Hambly said their mark on

the program was felt more significantly elsewhere.

“People are gonna look at the wins and losses and the runs we had,” Hambly said. “To me, it’s more about the culture that they have helped develop. When they came, the culture was established, but it needed to keep evolving.

And where it’s evolved to is a place that I’m proud to be a part of, really, and they had a lot to do to that.

They’re very strong people.”

“It’s kinda been special because our coaches are so willing to decide what we want the program to look like,” Luhrsen said.

“And because our class has stayed together from freshman year all the way through, I think we have been able to make a lot of changes that we’d like to see, mostly in the culture.”

The most mentioned evolution in the program relates to the culture the seniors have put in place, which is one that does not recognize or differentiate between classes, from freshmen all the way up to seniors. Freshmen are not hazed, forced to tote gear or clean the bus, and everyone shares an equal voice in team matters. Case in point: Luhrsen,

a redshirt senior and the most seasoned veteran on the team, is almost always the first player to arrive at practice to set up the nets and court.

Despite the Illini losing 10 of their last 13 matches, that culture is what has helped Illinois maintain its unity and positive chemistry. And while Hambly said team culture is always evolving based on the personnel and personalities, Wolfe and Luhrsen both hope their mark is one that sticks.

Along with the comfort of wearing his own number, Barrera was comfortable on the ice, scoring two goals in front of the home crowd in a 5-0 upset victory over the Bobcats.

Scott isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t the only Barrera still wearing 73. His dad and Joe both sport the number for their respective Chicago Police hockey teams. While the Barrera family has never forgotten about Speed, the number has taken on a significant meaning within the family.

Separated by 150 miles of Illinois cornfields, the family is connected by the common number they all represent. Taking the lesson from Speed over 17 years ago, Joe and his dad patrol the same dangerous streets that prematurely claimed the life of the 11-year-old. It represents a hard truth that life is fragile, especially for those constantly in the line of fire. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It encompasses a lot of feelings such as how we might not be here tomorrow,â&#x20AC;? Joe said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Life is very precious. It also just represents family. It is kind of like our family crest now.â&#x20AC;?

That symbol isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t going anywhere anytime soon. Both Joe and Scott plan to continue the tradition with their future families by passing the number to their children. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If they didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to wear it, well weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll have to have a talk,â&#x20AC;? Joe said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think it is something that I will hold in importance, and they will see that as they grow up.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll force my son to wear it,â&#x20AC;? Scott said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have a choice.â&#x20AC;?

the court. Illinois isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t running the floor like a Roy Williams-coached North Carolina team yet, but the pace of its offense, both the fullcourt and the halfcourt, has picked up significantly. Gone are the days when every other possession came down to Demetri McCamey dribbling the shot clock down to its waning seconds before hoisting up a contested jump shot.

In Fridayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s win against Colgate, the shot clock dipped below 10 seconds only a few times all game. In Mondayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s victory over St. Francis, it dropped under 10 just four times and never fell below seven. The Illini scored more than 40 points in the first half against Colgate and in both halves against St. Francis, a feat they achieved only once all last season. This is a team that gets shots up early and often, an exciting style of play for both players and spectators.

It would be easy to criticize Illinois for taking too many threes, as the Illini have hoisted up 55 in two games, but almost all of those were good looks that Groce encourages his players to let fly.

And as the first-year coach openly admits, this is primarily a jump-shooting team. The personnel left by Weber requires it. Six players hit a 3-pointer against Colgate and seven knocked one down against St. Francis. The slashing and post game needs to develop, but thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no doubt this team will live and die by the jump shot.

Yes, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s early. The competition is as wanting. But itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pleasantly surprising to see the Illini already fixing some of the most frustrating aspects of the last few yearsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; shortcomings. It gives cause for cautious optimism and bodes well for this teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s long-term prospects.

half of the season. The wins have piled up since they began focusing on the things they are good at, and the results are prevalent in penalty kicks. In fact, freshman midfielder Taylor Peterson and junior defender Kassidy Brown have recorded penaltykick tallies in both matches.

Illinois will need to change things up, though, to avoid getting into a routine now that the scouting report is out there. But
