Big Ten, Ivy put heads together The universities involved will link their labs in order to share research on brain injuries and concussions. By ANNA EGELAND anna-egeland@uiowa.edu
By JORDYN REILAND
Local businesses, restaurants, and Iowa City schools are saving money and the planet by composting their food scraps and waste through the landfill’s commercial program. The Iowa City Landfill and Recycling Center offered its first commercial composting workshop at the Environmental Education Center on Sunday, in which local businesses, restaurants, and schools shared their composting-program successes and challenges with the public. The University of Iowa has been a pioneering institution in the commercial composting program, and it has been a positive example for local businesses interested in the effort, said Jennifer Jordan, the city’s recycling coordinator. “I think it’s awesome that the uni-
The Big Ten and Ivy League, in conjunction with the Committee on Institutional Cooperation, are putting their heads together to research brain injuries and concussions in student-athletes in a collaboration announced last week. Barbara McFadden Allen, executive director of the cooperation panel, said an immediate goal of the partnership is to link the university labs and allow them to share information. “The set of institutions involved is significant. These are some of the top research institutions in the world,” she said, stressing the importance of bringing together both the athletics and academic sides of these institutions. The cooperation committee
was established in 1958 to act as the academic counterpart to the Big Ten conference and includes the Big Ten universities in addition to the University of Chicago, which was once a member of the Big Ten. Geoffrey Lauer, the executive director of the Brain Injury Association of Iowa, said it is important to understand the effects of repetitive mild injuries to the brain. “After a mild brain injury, the brain is vulnerable … it needs time, sometimes days, sometimes weeks, to recover,” he said. Each year, more than 3.8 million sports- and recreationrelated concussions occur in the United States, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Lauer said this translates into more than 75,000 sports- and recreation-related concussions in Iowa annually. Kerry Kenny, an assistant director of compliance for the Big Ten, said the collaboration hopes to foster a longitudinal study of student-athletes and collect data. “I think the overarching goals are there’s a lot of information but not a lot of data,” he said.

The parts of the body that do not receive these signals cannot function, causing them to fail and can result in paralysis, sensory loss, and pain. According to the National MS Society, health officials estimate that 400,000 individuals in the United States are afflicted by the disease. The money donated from the Eagles will be divided between the patient-care efforts of Shivapour and a research team led by Zaheer. Zaheer and his researchers have been pioneers in the field, and they have developed an antibody that stops the nega-
tive effects of a protein called GMF, that, when overproduced by the brain, causes the inflammation that triggers MS. “We accept this generous donation with a great sense of responsibility,” Zaheer said. “Every day, my lab works very hard to find ways and means to advance the knowledge of MS disease, and this generous donation will go a long way.” After years of testing on mice, the researchers are now ready to test the antibody on human MS patients, and the money donated by the Eagles will be vital to this effort. For Shivapour, the money donated to his patient-care program will benefit many patients and meet many of their needs. “My job will be to provide the patients with whatever they need that they cannot afford,” he said. “If it is a hospital bed, a cane, or even a scooter, I will make it happen with the money the Eagles have donated.” This is not the first time the charitable efforts of the Eagles have supported

By JOE HITCHON While the mission for all Eagle members is “people helping people,” for Jake and Barb Roush, this past year’s fundraising effort for the battle against multiple sclerosis had a special significance. When Jake Roush became the 2011-12 Iowa president of the Fraternal Order of the Eagles, the decision to select MS patient care and research at the University of Iowa as the state charity of the Iowa Eagles was an easy one. Roush’s daughter Lori suffers from MS, and she has received care at the UI Hospitals & Clinics for 20 years. The Iowa Eagles club presented the UIHC Neurology Department with a check for $144,113 for multiple sclerosis patient care and research on the evening of June 23 at the Coralville Marriott Hotel and Conference Center. The check was the result of a yearlong, statewide fundraising effort on the part of the Eagles — which included fish frys, bake sales, cakewalks, and auctions — and was presented to E.T. Shivapour, a UI clinical professor of neurology specializing in MS, and Asgar Zaheer, a UI associate professor of neurology. “You could never meet a more caring and compas-

versity is willing to spend the time, money, and resources to do the right thing and show others that they can do it, too,” she said. The UI Hillcrest Marketplace is installing a food pulper this week to replace the cafeteria’s garbage disposals, said manager Fred Kurt. The pulper, as seen in the UI Hospitals and Clinics, grinds food scraps, extracts water, and produces a pulp that can more easily travel and break down into rich compost. While the university considered machines that would produce compost instead of pulp, officials found them not cost-effective, complicated, and “over the top,” Kurt said. The machines may be considered in the future at Burge Marketplace or the IMU. In conjunction with the Office of Sustainability, the UI was awarded a Solid Waste Alternatives Program grant from the state

Department of Natural Resources. Along with a grant from the UI vice president for Research, Hillcrest Marketplace officials have received $40,000, covering the cost of the food pulper, Kurt said. By eliminating the garbage-disposal system and installing the food pulper, Hillcrest Marketplace will save $25,000 a year in water as part of the UI 2020 Vision for sustainability. The west dorm cafeteria serves 2,200 people a day and 24,000 meals every week. The UI composts kitchen scraps from food preparation and leftovers from food trays, Kurt said. “The big thing we learned was to monitor food production,” he said. Burge Marketplace began composting in the fall of 2009, and the IMU started in the fall of 2011. The UI is composting four to five times more waste than in the last five years since the program’s inception, Kurt said. “Our administration and students are behind us to do the right thing,” he said. The UI isn’t the only col-
lege in Iowa composting its food waste. Marie DeVries, a planner at Cedar Rapids-Linn County Solid Waste Agency, said Coe College delivers its food scraps for composting. Coe began composting food waste after a 2005 remodeling, cafeteria according to the website. DeVries said the landfill is
able to take the college’s scraps because of its food pulper, which decreases odor while removing liquid, a major concern in a downtown landfill, she said. Jordan, a self-described “compost geek,” said the landfill amended its permit in 2010 to allow for more organic waste. Since then, businesses such as Bluebird Diner and the New-
Pioneer Co-op have continued to compost their organic waste. Scott Connolly, Bluebird Diner co-owner, said it is the “responsible and custodial thing to do.” The diner began composting unfinished meals in January. Scott Koepke, education and outreach coordinator for New Pioneer Co-Op, leads an education pro-
Brown had not been arrested, and his whereabouts were unknown. According to police, he is considered armed and dangerous, and he may have fled to avoid arrest. The reported shooting occurred around 11:30 p.m. Thursday on the 2400 block of Pestel Place. Officers found Lindsey unresponsive and suffering from gunshot wounds. He was transported to the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics, where he was pronounced dead.
The UI released a Hawk Alert at around 12:06 a.m. June 22 pertaining to the shooting, stating “the shooting occurred in the area of Melrose and Mormon Trek. Police are looking for armed subject. If you are in the area, remain indoors, don’t confront suspect. Call 911 only if you have info or an emergency.” Dylan Nelson-Sease was getting ready for bed at approximately 11:20 p.m. with the window open when he heard a “domestic disturbance” outside.
Nelson-Sease told The Daily Iowan on June 22 he was not alarmed but continued to listen once he heard one of the men say, “Back down, homey; back down, homey.” Right after hearing the scuffle, he heard four-consecutive gunshots and said it sounded like it had come from one gun. The Iowa City police, University Heights police, North Liberty police, Coralville police, the State Patrol, and the Johnson
County Sheriff ’s Office were all on scene the night of the shooting. Approximately half a block of Pestel Place was taped off by police. According to an Iowa City police release, Brown was identified in a photo lineup as the shooter through eyewitness accounts and acquaintances of the suspect. Police will continue to search until Brown is apprehended.
institutions to get better data. “The key is that now you’re going to have a wider pool of information to pull from … and really help get some superlative data to give some insight,” he said. Lauer said sports injuries are the No. 3 cause of brain injuries in Iowa, and it is important to research brain injuries because there are so many factors to consider.
“No two brain injuries are alike, just like no two people are alike,” he said. “There’s just a wide range of complex issues that face people with brain injuries.” UI President Sally Mason said the partnership has great potential. “We are excited by the possibilities of this collaboration between Big Ten and Ivy League institutions to continue our close examination of the effects of head

Guest Column
Privacy: Old concerns echo in new era BENJAMIN EVANS Just how much should we worry about privacy? Nearly daily incidents demand that we as a society redraw the line between our private lives and our public personas. The “public” is that part of us found in public records, subject to examination by government or disclosure in news reports, or that we expose ourselves. The vexing problem of public versus private isn’t new, but new technology and new methods of communication raise new concerns. How new? A column this week in the New York Times by Columbia University law Professor Tim Wu raised the issue of privacy concerns for nearly sentient computers — machines that think so much like us they would have Constitutional rights. Closer to immediate reality, we see such situations as police officers arresting citizens for videotaping incidents in public. Then there are companies employing new ways to find public documents about us. Social networks such as Facebook invite us to post messages, then harvest data from our most-personal moments.
And government carries out Orwellian actions in the name of national security. Some — count Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg among them — say online privacy, at least, is a fading ideal. Around two years ago, he told an Internet conference that such a concept no longer applied to younger people: “People have really gotten comfortable not only sharing more information and different kinds but more openly and with more people.” Choosing to post that embarrassing weekend photo or update your “friends,” and thus the World Wide Web, on the progress of your airline trip may well just be “sharing.” And while Facebook and other social networks are massive, pervasive, and perhaps intrusive, they are not government with its powers over life and liberty. Our nation’s founders determined right from the start — just after safeguarding the rights of free speech and free press in the First Amendment — to restrict by the Fourth and Fifth Amendments the govern-
ment’s right to pry into our lives through “unreasonable searches and seizures” or to compel testimony against ourselves. But those amendments generally come into play when crime is involved. What about the privacy of law-abiding folks who want to keep as private — or at least control the disclosure of — most facts about them? Ninety-nine years to the day after we got the Bill of Rights, on Dec. 15, 1890, a landmark Harvard Law Review article set out a “right to be let alone,” written by two lawyers, Samuel Warren and Louis Brandeis. In 1928, as a U.S. Supreme Court justice, Brandeis set out the principle again in dissenting from a majority opinion in a wiretap case, Olmstead v. U.S. Modern readers, please insert news media, new media — social networking and automatic online sharing — along with iPads and cell phones, at the appropriate places. Gossip is no longer the resource of the idle and of the vicious, it has become a trade which is pursued with industry as well as effrontery. To sat-
isfy a prurient taste, the details of sexual relations are broadcast. To occupy the indolent, column upon column is filled with idle gossip, which can only be procured by intrusion upon the domestic circle. Attention cable-TV talking heads, celebrity trackers, and paparazzi: Two guys in the Victorian Age had your number. Still, there are things about each other we need to know to function as a nation. We should consider all those benefits in weighing attempts to shut down the flow of information. Still, there is the echo through time of the concerns that prompted Brandeis and Warren to write: “Solitude and privacy have become more essential to the individual; but modern enterprise and invention have, through invasions upon his privacy, subjected him to mental pain and distress, far greater than could be inflicted by mere bodily injury.” You could post that on Facebook.

Immigration reform a complex issue While your effort to cover the complex issue of immigration reform is commendable, your opinion piece (“Sen. Grassley —
get on the DREAM Wagon,” DI, June 22) displays a muddled understanding of current policy and proposed reforms. As journalists, surely you pride yourselves on presenting factual information, even in the context of an opinion piece.
Immigration is a difficult field to navigate. It is emotional for activists, politicians, and, of course, immigrants themselves. Therefore, it is only right to understand the true impact of immigration and present the
actual reforms being proposed — by both sides — when reporting on the issue. Kristen Williamson press secretary Federation for American Immigration Reform

If any of you were alive in the past week (and by alive, I mean watched television) then you know about the bus monitor — the one in upstate New York who took a verbal beating from a school bus full of 11-year-olds. Karen H. Klein, a 68year-old retired bus driver from Rochester, N.Y., sat on a crowded yellow school bus, cramped in a seat made for a kid, and was heckled for 10 minutes until she started crying. Here’s the kicker (like being called a “fat ass” for 10 minutes isn’t enough) — the abuse came from a group of seventh-grade boys. Apparently, the boys thought Klein had a bit of a weight problem (which she doesn’t) and apparently their version of justice was to record her public lynching with a cell phone and promptly post it on YouTube with the title “Making the Bus Monitor Cry” (because they are idiots). F**k is used 34 times in the video; fat ass is used 20 times; troll is used seven times; there is mention of vandalizing Klein’s house (egging and such) including breaking in and masturbating into her mouth; there are two blatant threats of stabbing Klein and cutting her stomach open to see how many “Big Macs” they would find; there are two mentions of rape, one involving a Twinke; and last but not least, the kids assumed her entire family killed themselves because they couldn’t stand to be around her. The video is 10 minutes and four seconds long. Let’s skip the fact that I didn’t even know the “f ” word when I was in seventh-grade (and still never use it in public), and, hell, we can skip all the crap about the parents having failed miserably, the School District sucking, the person who was driving the bus at the time being a degenerate bystander, and let’s just assume these kids are terrible
human beings and will eventually develop drinking problems or get struck by lighting. I really don’t care about the kids or what punishment they will receive or how we can prevent this from happening in the future. It doesn’t matter because the answer to all those problems is right in the video. It’s Klein. A widow who retired from driving a bus for 20-odd years takes up a job as a bus monitor, putting up with kids such as this in her spare time, and touting around a discount purse with platitudes such as “Live with integrity” and “Dare to laugh” cheaply sketched on it. She sits for 10 minutes while kids talk about cutting through her stomach “like butter.” And you know what she did? Nothing. “If you don’t have anything nice, don’t say anything at all,” was the only thing she said. I was seriously yelling at the television, wanting to reach through the screen and slap the little bastards until they apologized to the poor woman huddled uncomfortably in her seat. Why did she not yell at them? Why did she not punch one of the snotty brats right in the nose? Why, for the love of God, did she not stand up for herself? It took about three hours for the thought to sober up in my mind. While I plotted my literary revenge, promising this obvious evil would not go unchecked, I realized this video was not evidence of a failing school system, or a generation run amuck, or a complete loss of innocence in our culture, but the exact opposite. Klein sat there and did nothing while children abused her. She could have used corporal punishment or yelled at the kids to shut up — it would have been reasonable and nobody would have blamed her — but she lived by her own terribly cliché words and cheaply sketched platitudes on her purse and did nothing. This video is a rare glimpse of the goodness of humanity. Klein embodies everything humanity should be — and Ms. Klein, you look beautiful doing it.
Guest Column
Iowans have played key role leading the USDA Eight of the 30 U.S. Agriculture Department secretaries have ties to Iowa. Three former Agriculture secretaries were born in Iowa, including Mike Johanns (Osage), Henry A. Wallace (near Orient), and Edwin Meredith (near Avoca). While not born in Iowa, Tom Vilsack, Henry C. Wallace, and James Wilson lived a majority of their lives in the state. Secretaries Ezra Benson and Arthur Hyde came to Iowa to receive a portion of their education. Benson received a master of science in agricultural economics from what was then called Iowa State College (now Iowa State University).
Hyde graduated from the University of Iowa’s College of Law. Vilsack’s experiences in Iowa gave him an insight into the importance of agricultural exports, conservation, local and regional food systems, and the bio-based economy all needed to build a strong foundation for a revitalized rural economy. Johanns was sworn in as the 28th secretary of the USDA on Jan. 21, 2005. After serving as Agriculture secretary, Johanns successfully ran for a U.S. Senate seat in the state of Nebraska in 2008. Before become secretary, Johanns served as the governor of Nebraska from 1999 to
2005. Johanns was raised on a dairy farm near Osage, where he developed a deep respect for the land and the people who work it. Henry A. Wallace was born near Orient, Iowa, on Oct. 7, 1888, and graduated from Iowa State College. He then went to work at Wallaces Farmer, his family’s paper, and helped develop hybrid corn. When his father became secretary of Agriculture, he inherited the editing of the paper. Henry A. Wallace was secretary of Agriculture from March 4, 1933, until Sept. 4, 1940. He served as vice president of the United States from 1941 to 1945 under President Franklin
D. Roosevelt and was also secretary of Commerce from 1945 to 1946. Henry C. Wallace was born in Rock Island, Ill., on May 11, 1866, and grew up on the family farm in Iowa. He graduated from Iowa State College with a bachelor of science degree in agriculture and later taught there. He became interested in agricultural journalism and joined the staff of Wallaces Farmer and became its editor in 1916 when his father died. Henry C. Wallace became secretary of Agriculture on March 5, 1921, and served until his death in office on Oct. 25, 1924.
Meredith was born on Dec. 23, 1876, near Avoca, Iowa. After studying at Highland Park College in Des Moines, he became an agricultural journalist. Meredith was secretary of Agriculture from Feb. 2, 1920, to March 4, 1921. He then resumed his career in journalism. Meredith died on June 17, 1928. Wilson was born on Aug. 16, 1835, in Ayrshire, Scotland, and attended what is now Grinnell College. He was elected to Iowa House of Representatives and became its speaker. Wilson then went on to represent Iowa in the U.S. Congress from 1873 to 1877 and again from 1883 to 1885.
He was secretary of Agriculture for 16-consecutive years, from March 6, 1897, to March 5, 1913. This is the longest term of any Cabinet member. Also, Wilson is still the only Cabinet member to serve three presidents. Through our work on food, agriculture, economic development, science, natural-resource conservation, and a host of issues, the USDA still fulfills President Lincoln’s vision as “The People’s Department” by touching the lives of every American, every day. Bill Menner USDA rural-development state director, Iowa

PRIME CONTINUED FROM 8
Alongside Basabe, former Hawkeye Jarryd Cole helped pave the way to victory with 31 points. Basabe said playing with Cole helped him when the pair played for
Sports Hawkeyes together in 2010-11, and it continues to help him now. The two netted 60 points together. Hawkeyes Mike Gesell and Kyle Meyer also con-
tributed to the Armstrong victory. Gesell had 14 points, 5 rebounds, and 9 assists, and Meyer tallied 4 points, 7 rebounds, and 1 assist.
The Daily Iowan - Iowa City, Iowa - Monday, June 25, 2012 - 5
“I just give 100 percent,” Basabe said. “You get out what you put in, and I’ve just been putting in a lot of effort, and today I got good results.”
Ex-Hawks compete in Olympic trials Two former Iowa track and field athletes competed at the U.S. Track and Field Olympic Trials in Eugene, Ore., on June 22-24.
WOODBURY CONTINUED FROM 8
from Woodbury’s strong game in the paint. Oglesby had an impressive game, going 6-of-9 from 3-point range. The sophomore-tobe scored 20 points on the game and dished out 6 assists. McCabe finished with a double-double of his own for Larson’s team, scoring 22 points, and grabbing 10 rebounds. Most impressive, however, was McCabe’s 3-pointer
to seal the win. Just over four minutes remained, and Vinton/Gatens was making a run. But McCabe stopped a potentially bad play and turned it into a good one. “We almost had a turnover, and it was open, so I took it,” McCabe said. “I had confidence, and it got us going at the end of the game. McCabe’s shot put his team up, 84-76, and stopped any chance of Culver’s/Ready Mix making a comeback. Led by Hawkeyes Aaron White and Eric May, Culver’s/Ready Mix played well but couldn’t close the game out.
White played well against a slew of his teammates. He finished with 22 points, grabbed 7 boards, and chipped in 3 assists. The Black and Gold star struggled at times to find his shot, however. No one on the Culver’s could stop Woodbury, and head coach Ron Nove’s team suffered from a poor offensive rebounding day. “We didn’t get stops, and we got beat up on the glass,” White said. “We also didn’t have an answer for Woodbury. Hopefully, we can come back next Sunday and get a win.”
Erik Sowinski raced in the 800meter event and finished seventh in the prelims on June 22 to qualify for the semifinals, recording a time of 1:47.30 in his first race. The ex-Hawkeye took third in his heat. But Sowinski saw his Olympic dreams fall on June 23, when he placed last in the semis, placing 16th with a time of 1:50.83. Jeffery Herron, another recent Iowa grad, also advanced past his Iowa’s Adam Woodbury attempts to block a shot from Keith Steffeck during a Prime Time game on Sunday in North Liberty. Vinton/Gatens (tan) beat Culver’s/Ready Mix (black), 93-82. (The Daily Iowan/Ian Servin)
prelim competition in the high jump on Sunday. Herron cleared 7-0 1/2. The Hawkeye will compete in the event finals today at 5:50 p.m.
COMMENTARY CONTINUED FROM 8
goal-line technology that would allow for the resolution of controversial, game-changing refereeing calls. Such as the one during the England versus Ukraine match on June 19. England defender John Terry’s valiant efforts weren’t enough. The ball crossed the line before he was able to hack it to “safety.” None of the match officials called the goal. Or the Ukranian offside in the buildup. The Ukrainians went berserk, England kept playing; they were
CARTWRIGHT CONTINUED FROM 8
sons of his Hawkeye tenure. The Compton native served as an Iowa
all-too-familiar with this situation. The English were denied a goal in similar circumstances against Germany at the 2010 World Cup. A team of five match officials — including the two recently added “goalline” refs because of the prevalence of bad goal-line calls — cannot possibly see every moment of every play from every angle. It’s just not plausible. But blaming the referees for the wrong decisions is naïve. Referees aren’t all-seeing, all-knowing demigods. They’re human. Players make mistakes — such as when Portugal’s Cristiano Ronaldo inexplicably fired wide against Denmark. But when referees make errors, the entire reputa-
tion of the game is called into question. Bad refereeing decisions pollute every major soccer tournament. The 2010 World Cup in South Africa saw Argentina’s Carlos Tevez score a goal that was blatantly offside, and England’s Frank Lampard was denied a goal that clearly crossed the line. The millions of people watching around the world and even the fans in the stadium could see within seconds that the officials got the decision wrong. The ref was the only person left in the dark. Almost every major sport has some form of review process except soccer, the most-watched sport worldwide. Give the refs some help.
People have been calling for “goal-line” technology similar to the review system currently used in tennis. The technology vastly improved tennis by eliminating the possibility of bad line-judge calls. Even longtime opponent of this technology, FIFA President Sepp Blatter, reversed his opposition following the controversy at the 2010 World Cup. The Euro tournament mistakes have players, coaches, and pundits renewing their pleas for implementation. UEFA President Michel Platini has consistently opposed such technology, even following the wrong call in Ukraine’s match. Platini told reporters in Warsaw afterwards that he opposes it because he
fears a “slippery slope” of when it would be used, ultimately ruining the flow of the game. This is nonsensical for two reasons. The flow of a soccer game has already been irreversibly and unforgivably disrupted when a team scores a legitimate goal and it does not count. This is a far more serious and infuriating disruption than a brief pause to look at a replay. Also, when introduced, the technology can and should be limited to use in very specific and vital instances. This is easy to achieve as UEFA can implement it however they see fit. Platini, you are the last man standing. Sit down, and stop ruining it for everybody.
cocaptain during his senior year. Cartwright’s team in the Drew League, Money Gang, is 3-2 on the season so far. The Gang fell out of the league’s No. 6 ranking after suffering the second loss. But there’s no doubt whether Cartwright’s
assists and point-guard skills will benefit his team just as they did at Iowa. Carver-Hawkeye or King Drew High, Iowa Hawkeyes or Money Gang, Devyn Marble or Chris Brown, Melsahn Basabe or John Wall — Cartwright is the same team-oriented player.
“Bryce is going to do well in the Drew League. He has a lot of upsides to his game. Bryce is very talented,” said Jarryd Cole, Cartwright’s former teammate. “He’s an unselfish player. He loves to make things happen for other
people, and that’s what great point guards do. I think that’ll benefit guys like DeRozan. Bryce has a total package when it comes to his game and skills. I think he’s doing a good thing out there in the Drew League.”
Des Moines native Lolo Jones secured her spot on the London Olympics team in the 100-meter hurdles on Sunday. The Iowan finished with a time of 12.86 seconds, just 0.14 seconds off the time that earned her seventh place in the Beijing Games in 2008. Jones finished third in her prelim heat and second in her semifinal before taking third in the finals to earn a ticket to London. Jones’ overseas competition will begin on Aug. 6 in the first round of the 100-meter hurdles. — by Molly Irene Olmstead

horoscopes
Monday, June 25 — by Eugenia Last
ARIES March 21-April 19 Be honest about what you can and cannot contribute. Size up your situation, and understand what’s needed, especially if institutions, agencies or finances are involved. A little can go a long way, but precision and timing will be essential. TAURUS April 20-May 20 Take a minimalist position, regardless of what anyone else says or does. Too much of anything will be your downfall. Don’t initiate change or travel unnecessarily. Listen, but reserve judgment and decisions until you are certain of your goals. GEMINI May 21-June 20 Don’t jump to conclusions, take sides, or make assumptions. Evaluate each situation separately, and make decisions based on observation, not speculation. Lowering your overhead and simplifying your life will enable you to excel, slowly but surely. CANCER June 21-July 22 You will find ways to improve your surroundings and your relationships if you look hard enough. Don’t limit the possibilities. Explore avenues that can change your lifestyle and your attitude regarding creative ventures. New beginnings will pay off. LEO July 23-Aug. 22 Withhold information if you think it might incriminate you. Patience and tolerance will be required to avoid being restricted or limited by anyone sitting in an influential position. Rely on experience to help you make the right choice now. VIRGO Aug. 23-Sept. 22 Take note of what’s happening at home and at work. You may have to counter a move that has the potential to hold you back. Don’t let emotions prevent you from moving forward with your plans. Productivity must not be sacrificed. LIBRA Sept. 23-Oct. 22 Waffling or holding back the way you really feel will not help you get ahead. Love, romance, and self-improvement should all be at the top of your list. Plan your actions carefully, however, and stick to a set budget. SCORPIO Oct. 23-Nov. 21 Make suggestions and be passionate about your pursuits. An intuitive guide will help you make the right choices regarding your investments and alterations to your home. Don’t be fooled by a greedy fast-talker. Be willing to change your mind. SAGITTARIUS Nov. 22-Dec. 21 You cannot please everyone, so do what’s best for you. Altering the way you live or lowering your overhead will help relieve stress. Don’t let emotions stand in the way of a good decision. Act on fact, not on hearsay. CAPRICORN Dec. 22-Jan. 19 Avoid impulsive expenditures. Budget and pay outright for anything you want. A change in your social plans or love life will be to your benefit. Children or a free-spirited individual can help you recognize alternative options. AQUARIUS Jan. 20-Feb. 18 The more you do to enhance your surroundings, the better you will feel about your future. Greater financial confidence will help you present a better depiction of what you have to offer. Base your changes on experience. PISCES Feb. 19-March 20 Stick to what you do best, and offer what you can to those in need, but don’t give to someone who is looking for a free ride. Choose your battles and your allies carefully. Don’t let emotions interfere with progress.

Prime Time heats up
Woodbury controls the paint Incoming Hawkeye Adam Woodbury’s rebounding thwarted future teammate Aaron White in Sunday’s Prime Time League action By CARLOS SOSA carlos-sosa@uiowa.edu
ahead as soon as his squad started losing balls and missing rebounds. Ahren’s team was down by 11 a few minutes into the second half but fought back to stay within 1 just six minutes later. A hearty 11:13 was left in the game when Armstrong took the lead, which it hung on to until the last buzzer. Forward Basabe had the third-highest score of the game, knocking down 29 points. He has been conditioning and working hard in the off-season. “I base everything on conditioning,” he said. “I do a lot of ball handling — it helps on your touch.” Basabe’s conditioning and ball handling paid off. In addition to his 29 points, he put up a double-double with 14 rebounds, in addition to 3 assists.
Rebounding is vital to having a strong defense and a potent offense. Incoming Hawkeye freshman Adam Woodbury showed flashes of his rebounding dominance when he powered his Prime Time League team to a win on Sunday. Woodbury stayed active the whole game for Vinton/Gatens. He finished the game with a double-double and also led head coach Randy Larson’s team in rebounding. “I just have to keep going after them [rebounds],” Woodbury said. “Have to keep rebounding and staying active. If you don’t, that one rebound you miss might cost you the game.” Sunday showed why Woodbury is going to be crucial to Iowa’s success this coming season. His ability to rebound on the offensive end gives his team more second-chance opportunities at the net. The 6-11 center is expected to make an impact in the Big Ten. “He’s a great passer,” Josh Oglesby said. “He’s big, so other teams have to respect him. He’s in there to affect the game defensively, grab rebounds, and affect people’s shots.” Woodbury is a presence in the paint and forces players to think twice when they want to attack the rim. The more jump shots he forces, the more potential rebounds he can grab. “He’s so big that he can just grab those rebounds,” Zach McCabe said. “He also doesn’t just look for his shot, he looks for other people’s, too.” Both McCabe and Oglesby benefited

Basabe and Cole lead their Prime Time League team to a victory on Sunday, scoring a combined 60 points. By VICTORIA KIPP victoria-kipp@uiowa.edu
Melsahn Basabe’s team trailed by 10 points near the end of the first half on Sunday in North Liberty. But his team, Jill Armstrong of Skogman Realty, surged back and defeated Pelling/McCurry’s, 106-98, in a Prime Time League basketball matchup. It was a tough battle between the teams — they both held the lead for significant
COMMENTARY
Euro soccer remains a Luddite A missed call in the Euro 2012 tournament makes it even clearer that soccer should use video-review technology at the goal line.
ADAM WESLEY adam-wesley@uiowa.edu
The Euro 2012 tournament suffered a less-than inspiring start, but it has kicked up a couple gears since then. The games have gotten more entertaining, the goals have been spectacular, and Kasey Keller is no longer in the ESPN commentary box. Soccer fans everywhere rejoice. One thing, however, threatens to overshadow the many standout performances and compelling storylines of the tournament: the Union of European Football Associations. European soccer’s governing body is ruining everything. It is proving, once again, that it’s completely out of touch with reality. UEFA refuses to introduce a form of SEE COMMENTARY, 5
amounts of time at different points. Pelling, coached by Kevin Lehman, took the lead early on in the game and stayed in control with a 10-point lead, 47-37, with a little over a minute left in the first half. Hawkeye Devyn Marble led Lehman’s team on the court, hitting 4-of-7 3-point attempts for the night. “I just got into a rhythm today; I was able to play the whole game, so that helped,” he said. “We were able to get off to a good start to get the good lead.” Fellow Hawkeye Gabe Olaseni added 9 points. He said the team worked on “running the floor, rebounding, and playing with energy.” The Lehman team’s lead didn’t last long, however. By the middle of the second half, Armstrong, coached by Dan Ahrens, had a 10-point lead of its own. Marble said Ahren’s team started to pull
Cartwright back home Former Hawkeye basketball player Bryce Cartwright now plays hoops with Chris Brown, John Wall, and Metta World Peace. By TAYLOR AXELSON taylor-axelson@uiowa.edu
Bryce Cartwright isn’t wearing No. 24 this summer. His jersey is no longer black and gold. He left Carver-Hawkeye Arena for a high-school gym near his home town in Compton, Calif. He was invited to play in the Drew League, a summer league similar to Iowa’s Prime Time in the Los Angeles area. Cartwright’s team is the Money Gang. His teammates and his opponents are bigger, better, and known worldwide. “DeMar [DeRozan, Toronto Raptor player] and I used to play together when we were young in Compton,” Cartwright said. “Paul George [Indiana Pacers] and I played together at Fresno State my first year, and I also know Game, the rapper. They asked me to come play.” The Drew League was founded in 1973 with six teams; by 1985, it had grown to 10 teams. The league now has 20 teams
Then-Iowa guard Bryce Cartwright leaves the court after the victory over Minnesota in Carver-Hawkeye Arena on Feb. 1. Cartwright is now playing for the Drew League in West Los Angeles. (The Daily Iowan/Adam Wesley) by invitation only because of the popularity and recognition that certain players possess. “The Drew League provides a safe, fun, and free venue for the community in South Central Los Angeles to view elitelevel basketball and entertainment,” Dino Smiley, the league’s commissioner, wrote in an email. “For many in the community (especially kids), the Drew League is the only opportunity for them to see and mingle ‘up close and personal’ with top NBA and college-basketball athletes and entertainers every weekend.”
The games are played at King Drew High in Los Angeles. Admission is free, so the gym is packed to capacity. For those who don’t get into the stands, there are places on the sidelines. Hundreds of people wait outside every game waiting to get in. The 2 p.m. games, during which Cartwright plays every week, are the most packed because of the players who run the court at that time. John Wall, Chris Brown, Game, and Metta World Peace have all made appearances. Game brings in different people every
week to draw the crowds. “Playing in a high-school gym is different from Carver, but it’s the same old game. Carver would get packed, too,” Cartwright said. “The competition is better because I’m playing against NBA players. It’s good to play against people of your caliber or better.” Cartwright played for the Black and Gold from 20102012, averaging 8.4 points per game over the two seasons. He led the team in assists, dishing out 182 and 154 in the two seaSEE CARTWRIGHT, 5
