The night of sobriety to help others stay safe is in honor of Miles Liner, a PKA brother who was killed by a drunk driver one year ago this week, said Liner’s pledge brother Zach Jongema. “I suggested the event as a way to honor Miles — he was a really good friend of mine,” Jongema said. “I wanted to do something to serve the community and to memoriali e him.”

Tigers’ victory spoiled by self-destructive first half
Tyler Nunez Sports Writer
y the time the final whistle blew, the No. 11 LSU football team had posted a season-high 672 yards of total offense and allowed a season-low 198 yards on defense in its 48-16 victory against Furman. ut a first half characteri ed by turnovers, shoddy defense and kicking errors dominated talking points
after the game. “The game started sloppy,” said LSU coach Les Miles. “We turned the ball over twice in the first half. The first-half scores were not inclined to what we would like. [During the] second half, the offense took control, and the defense played like they were supposed to.” While LSU (7-2, 3-2 Southeastern Conference) statistically overpowered the Paladins (3-5, 2-2
FOOD
Kolache Kitchen takes to the streets with food truck Mobile eatery to frequent Tigerland Alexis Rebennack Staff Writer
Baton Rouge’s own Kolache Kitchen is rolling up its sleeves and rolling out a whole new addition to the restaurant: a food truck. The Rolling Pin, The Kolache Kitchen’s new food truck, parked its wheels for the first time Thursday in downtown Baton Rouge. Will Edwards, owner of The Kolache Kitchen, said there aren’t many food options near the downtown bar scene or near Tigerland, but with the addition
of The Rolling Pin, he’s changing that. Edwards said both downtown and the University’s campus have changed drastically over the past seven years he has lived here, and he believes Baton Rouge will inevitably become a food truck destination. Edwards said having a food truck has been part of his business plan from the beginning. “I had a family friend who used to sell cupcakes out of her trailer all around Texas, and she was trying to sell the trailer, and I was like, ‘Well, that would be perfect,’” Edwards said. Edwards said he’s had the trailer for more than a year, but he put it on the back burner until he felt the time was right.
The Rolling Pin will travel to various places across Baton Rouge, including downtown and surrounding Tigerland. “I am going to update Facebook and Twitter every day where The Rolling Pin is going to be,” Edwards said. He said the truck will ideally be in service Monday through Saturday, six days a week in the morning and four days a week at night. The food truck boasts the same menu as The Kolache Kitchen, which includes kolaches, breakfast tacos, empanadas, rancheros and beverages. CHARLES CHAMPAGNE / The Daily Reveille

INTERNATIONAL iPad art gains recognition in new Hockney exhibit at de Young Museum SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Happily hunched over his iPad, Britain’s most celebrated living artist David Hockney is pioneering in the art world again, turning his index finger into a paintbrush that he uses to swipe across a touch screen to create vibrant landscapes, colorful forests and richly layered scenes. “It’s a very new medium,” said Hockney. So new, in fact, he wasn’t sure what he was creating until he began printing his digital images a few years ago. “I was pretty amazed by them actually,” he said, laughing. “I’m still amazed.” Austrian authorities seize half-ton of cannabis during routine check VIENNA (AP) — Authorities have seized 500 kilograms (about 1,100 pounds) of cannabis during a routine check on a camping van entering southern Austria from Slovenia. Two Italian men were arrested. Police in Carinthia province said the drugs — divided into 500 packages — were hidden inside the roof of the vehicle, which was stopped Saturday afternoon by a patrol on a highway. A sniffer dog alerted officers to the stash, and the van was taken to a nearby police station and searched.

The struggle is rooted in the kingdom’s hard-line interpretation of Islam known as Wahabbism, with critics warning that women driving could unravel the very fabric of Saudi society.

University students will vote on amendments to the Student Government constitution and elect senators to fill vacant seats in the SG fall election starting today and lasting until Tuesday evening. Among the amendments being voted on, one would grant the president and vice president the ability to run for an additional term — for a maximum of two one-year terms — and mandate the president to appoint an executive staff. The referendum will remove ollege ouncil officers who have been inactive for at least four weeks. SG Director of Communications David Holley said this is to prevent dormancy in SG. The final change students will vote on is an amendment to allow the president to appoint judicial officers to University ourt. The nominees would then need to be approved by the senate. The president will be able to appoint five of the nine udicial officers per term. urrently, the officers are elected by the student body. After students vote on the amendments to the constitution, they will have the opportunity to
vote for senators for their senior colleges. Senators elected in the fall elections will hold their senate seats until next fall. Students can vote online via their myLSU account at www.lsu. edu/sgelections. Polls open at 7 a.m. today and will close at 6:59 p.m. Voting will be reopened between the same times on Tuesday. Holley said there will also be physical locations to vote across campus, in an attempt to increase voter turnout and the accuracy of student representation as well as to get more students aware of issues around campus. The election results will be announced at 4:30 p.m. Oct. 30 in the Live Oak Lounge in the Student Union. If necessary, a runoff election will be held Nov. 4 and 5.

LSU’s first half against le Miss this season was the worst football I’d seen from a Les Miles-coached team in a long time. et somehow, LSU’s first half against Furman on Saturday managed to be even worse. The word “disinterested” doesn’t do it justice. The Tigers were sloppy in all three phases of the game and were at-out sleepwalking against a Furman team that showed up to play. Miscommunication dug the Tigers an early hole as Odell Beckham r. went deep on their first offensive possession, but Zach Mettenberger stared him down and threw a hitch route. The result was an easy interception that aladin cornerback Reggie Thomas returned 74 yards for a touchdown. The defense again struggled to tackle and get off the field on third down. gainst a aladin offense that couldn’t throw the ball more than 1 yards down the field at a time, LSU surrendered 12 first downs as Furman converted four of its first eight third downs. The LSU defense forced Furman to settle for three field goals, but that isn’t something to celebrate against an FCS opponent that came in sporting a 3-4 record. erhaps the Tigers’ biggest regression came on special teams.

LSU falls twice in final weekend Marcus Rodrigue Sports Contributor
The LSU soccer team dropped its fourth consecutive game with a 3-1 loss Sunday at No. 25 Kentucky. The Tigers (9-7-2, 5-4-1 Southeastern Conference) were unbeaten through their first six SEC games and sat atop the league halfway through the slate, but their struggles during the last two weekends have sent them plummeting down the conference standings. “I thought we were playing with great enthusiasm and effort,
but once we scored the goal, we got a false sense of security and we let down a little bit,” said LSU coach Brian Lee. “Our work rate slowed and Kentucky was good enough to capitalize, and they hit us with three quick goals.” The Tigers committed 20 fouls Sunday, which directly led to two goals for the Wildcats (134-1, 7-3 SEC). Lee said the number of fouls doesn’t re ect poorly on LSU because some of them were a result of high effort and physical play.

Tigers snap three-game losing streak against Arkansas
Elliott leads team in must-win victory Mike Gegenheimer Sports Writer
It wasn’t pretty, but the LSU volleyball team snapped its three-match losing streak Saturday when the Tigers defeated Arkansas (25-20, 14-25, 25-27, 2 -2 , 1 -12 in a grueling, fiveset match. The Tigers stepped out to an early lead in the first set, but the Razorbacks gained a huge momentum shift halfway through the set and from then on, the two squads duked it out on the PMAC court. “The bottom line is, this team finally fought through a match and believed at the end and we were able to make some plays,” said LSU coach Fran Flory. “Certainly Arkansas gave us some points at the end and had some huge errors in key situations, and fortunately for us they did, but I think our kids responded.”
Flory said Sunday’s match was a must-win for LSU to maintain any hope of extending its season into December after the Tigers failed to produce a win in two weeks following losses to Auburn, Alabama and Missouri. “This had to be,” Flory said. “We had to get this match. There was so much pressure on us to find out how to get this match. We played with a lot of pressure today and I’m proud of the way they responded.” Flory said she didn’t explicitly tell her team Sunday was a must-win match, but senior middle blocker Desiree Elliott said after the game that it didn’t need to be said out loud. The Tigers were heading down a bad track and it was their job to right the ship before it became too late. Elliott didn’t start against the Razorbacks on Sunday because Flory said she didn’t feel confident in her ability to keep the high tempo needed in the match. Elliott has struggled in recent weeks, according to Flory, but appeared to have turned a corner Sunday with 10 kills, good for a

They blanked the Paladins 28-0 in the second half and ended up with nearly 700 yards of total offense as Mettenberger, Hill, Beckham and Terrence Magee all had huge statistical nights. But if LSU plays poorly in the first half against labama in two weeks, it will have its doors blown off. The Tide has outscored its last two opponents - in the first half, pouncing on them and going for the
jugular before the opponent even had a chance to settle into the game. LSU is much better than Arkansas or Tennessee, but if it doesn’t turn around its recent first-half woes, the score could get ugly in a hurry. Miles and company have two weeks to rest up and have whatever amount of come-to-Jesus meetings they need in order to get ready for the Tide. t will be interesting to see if Miles can get the kind of inspired performance he got out of them against Alabama last season.

University social media creates student division 600 WORDS OF SOMMERS ANNETTE SOMMERS Columnist LSU was ranked No. 10 on StudentAdvisor.com for its use of social media practices to keep students informed, but this may not be as good as it seems. There is a widely accepted idea that the media movement is creating an equal opportunity for all people to stay informed and involved in society. Our generation especially thinks that social media and the Internet are platforms that all people can reach. This is not true. Our rank passed Tulane by 73 spots. Almost all the universities that were deemed more mediaoriented than LSU were Ivies. We started from the bottom; now we are with the big guys. This is great for the majority of students who use social media to stay involved, but what about
the rest of the student body? I’m glad our school is progressing toward a more mobile future by keeping students in the loop. But as with anything new and revolutionary, there’s a gap between those who can move forward and those who get left behind. Only 53 percent of college students have a smart phone, according to a study by the University of Colorado at Boulder. Yes, this is the majority, but not by much. The average smartphone user checks their phone about 150 times a day, according to a survey of Internet usage released by Kleiner Perkins Caufield and yers. f that doesn’t demonstrate our obsession with media, then I don’t know what does. We are glued to screens without even realizing the other 47 percent of campus is being left out. Sure there are library computers students can utilize, but
it’s inconvenient when they are constantly crashing or are closed on certain days. Our campus media efforts are relevant, but we can’t forget to reach out to the rest of the population who still use more basic forms of communication. It is so easy to alienate those who aren’t as up-to-speed with the current media revolution. Not everyone can afford a high-tech computer, let alone a smartphone. By only focusing our efforts on media interaction, we are unintentionally creating class divides. How can someone without a Twitter be informed of campus happenings when they are only tweeted about or advertised on Facebook? If you only check the online LSU events calendar and not Twitter, you might miss things like the Homecoming concert we had on the Parade Ground last week. It makes us seem like we only care about the percentage of people who can afford these
gadgets, and the rest can stay home in their underprivileged bubbles. I know this isn’t our school’s intention, but it’s a truth that most of our country is experiencing. Think about it. For those of us who use a social medium or smartphone, it’s simple to see how our lives revolve around technology. Our political, religious and academic opinions are all in uenced by what we see online. We think those who are less informed than us are ignorant, when in fact they may just lack the tools to gain the appropriate knowledge. And considering our country’s distribution of wealth, it’s reasonable to say that as the digital divide increases, so will our class divide. We are in a time of media dominance. And when I say “we,” I mean the United States, not necessarily the rest of the world, 70 percent of whom do not have Internet,
according to the International Telecommunication Union. So until our world transitions to be 100 percent digitally informed, we should still make an effort to keep the minority educated on current events. This concept should be remembered on college campuses as well as in the professional world. It seems like a hassle to send out hard-copy newsletters or have radio broadcasts, but it’s something that should be kept running, if only for the sake of keeping the public informed on the most basic matters.

La. congressional district race a sign of bigger issues NEUTRAL GROUND ELI A. HADDOW Columnist It isn’t a TV show; it’s the 5th congressional district race. Thanks in part to “Duck Dynasty” star Phil Robertson’s endorsement, congressional candidate Vance McAllister shocked virtually everyone by qualifying for a runoff versus State Senator Neil Riser. The general election will take place on Nov. 16 and will likely be a competition to decide which of the two Republicans is more conservative — or rather, which one will be the most militant toward his congressional colleagues once he is elected. To clarify, Louisiana election law takes the two highest vote getters from the open primary and pits them in a runoff, regardless of party affiliation. So the people of the 5th district, which includes both Monroe and Alexandria, are left without a candidate who seems willing to sit down with Democrats and work out a solution to the country’s problems. This, however, ignores the country’s largest problem: the
hyper-partisanship that pushed the U.S. government past the brink earlier in October. That’s not going to be fixed any time soon. In a time when ultra-conservatives are becoming politicians so they can stop the politicians, our country is paying a clear price. These representatives travel to Washington with the promise that they will buck the establishment and fight for the people’s rights. On McAllister’s website, he pledges to “fight bamacare” and “support traditional marriage.” In other words, he wishes to continue fighting losing battles that could cost the Republicans the House in the 2014 elections. To use Gov. Bobby Jindal’s words, the Republicans have become the “party of no,” meaning that whenever moderates or Democrats seek to compromise on a solution, they simply ignore it. Neither candidate presents actual solutions to any problem; they just wallow in the ambiguity of “opposing big government.” Big government must include state universities, because neither candidate mentions the recent slashes to the University’s funding. In a press release, Riser

promises to “defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic.” However, he must not take into account that officials like him shut down the government and severely limited the nation’s military capabilities. The 5th district — and Louisiana as a whole — deserves politicians who are willing to sit down and let the cool heads on Capitol Hill prevail. Whether Republican or Democrat, it has come to the point where that doesn’t matter, as long as they will be willing to cooperate with the system. Instead of reaching bipartisan agreements, our politicians use the press to heckle each other. And, more often than not, our news outlets are pleased to run stories about the buffoonery that has taken place in Washington over the past few weeks. Riser and McAllister both embody the spirit of these Tea Party congressmen. And while they are wont to stray from the term because of its current derision among everyone who matters, they won’t be any different from their labeled colleagues. At some point, Republicans — and conservatives as a whole — have to come to terms with the fact

that Obamacare is here to stay. And more importantly, they need to understand that if there’s a single issue our generation cares about, it’s social equality. There will be no anti-gay reaction that makes it possible for a bill like DOMA to ever reach the books again. The 5th district race is but a microcosm of the issues that plague the GOP.

Education worthwhile despite LSU’s rising tuition trend SHUT UP, MEG MEGAN DUNBAR Opinion Editor We’ve all heard about how college will bankrupt us deprived students and leave us four years poorer without any real life experience. But according to the Associated Press, U.S. average university tuition is down for the first time in 30 years. Time to celebrate being a few percentage points out of the hole, right? Oh wait — that won’t work for LSU’s student body, especially the out-of-state group, because their non-resident fees rose 14 percent in the past year. Maybe soon we’ll reach the part of the cycle where prices trend downward and students can finally afford to escape the world of higher education without promising their firstborn children to the government to pay off loans. Probably not, though, because the same study showed the percentage students pay out of pocket has risen despite an overall tuition decrease.
This means either students and their families are richer and don’t need financial assistance, or grants and scholarships haven’t kept up with the 30-year trend of rising tuition. ’m going to bet on the latter, because no one I’ve talked to lately has been at ease about their financial situation. We’re all here anyway, though, wasting nonexistent money on throwaway classes to receive a piece of paper from a close-to-unaccredited University manipulated by a phantom governor. That seems like a worthy cause. Our new University President F. King Alexander even presented the study at the most recent oard of Supervisors meeting, but only chose to highlight the branches of the LSU program that displayed positive rankings. His handout ignored all our shortcomings, and if the oard meetings aren’t for criticism and discussion of the University’s policy, when else are the bigwigs supposed to talk about it? Apparently never. Despite all this upper-level drama, there are still , of us enrolled here, racking up debt
and — according to the national news cycle — wasting time. Every other week, some syndicate publishes an article or column with the groundbreaking news that a four-year degree doesn’t mean as much as it used to back in the day, or that it isn’t worth the trouble. I think they need to get off their high horses and look at the innovation happening on college campuses. LSU specifically is doing a pretty great job for a state university with a huge undergraduate body, in spite of our various boards ignoring real issues and our lack of sufficient parking. We’ve got students pairing up with professors to more deeply understand their fields, obs that allow crash tests for real life and connections through alumni programs to help seek out internships and future jobs. These are all undeniably positive parts of a college career. The perceived negatives of unmotivated college stereotypes wasting money and no immediate postgraduation job prospects turn this into a non-issue. ur system is definitely broken, with the ever-in ating prices and so many hoops through

which we need to ump to reach graduation day, but overall an undergraduate degree is still worth the four-year struggle. So don’t drop out just yet. Appeal to our Board of Supervisors instead and ask them if they’re still turning a blind eye to all of the University’s failures.

Derivatives risky to economy, must be regulated MR. FINI JOSHUA HAJIAKBARIFINI Columnist eapons of mass destruction are most often chemical, biological and nuclear weapons. The fears and a need for regulation could also be said for derivatives, which, according to Warren uffett, are “weapons of financial mass destruction.” ut simply, a derivative is a bet or a contract that obtains its value from the performance of something else. t could be a stock, a bond, a currency, a commodity, an interest rate, an asset, etc. This market is massive and estimated to be as large as 1. uadrillion, which is more than 2 times larger than the entire world’s . The exact number of derivatives out there is unknown. For a market this large and risky, a reasonable person may expect it to be regulated, but it isn’t. The only law on the books that partially regulates derivatives is the Dodd–Frank Wall Street eform and onsumer Protection Act, which hasn’t been implemented yet. Students are already part of this market. ost of our student loans, car loans, credit card debt and mortgages go through the
securitization food chain; and when we pay our monthly bills, it goes to investors all over the world. As strange as this sounds, this is the world of modern financial innovation. Thirty years ago if you wanted to take out a mortgage to buy a home, lenders were cautious because they expected to be paid back. Today, that lender-borrower model doesn’t exactly apply because of the securitization food chain. After the bank sells you the mortgage, it will then turn around and sell the mortgage to an investment bank on all Street. The investment bank on Wall Street in turn takes that mortgage and bundles it up with all other kinds of debts including credit card debt, car loans, student loans, commercial mortgages and mortgages of other people. They then package it into a new product called collateralized debt obligation, or . all Street then sells these s to investors all over the world. The securitization food chain increased the level of interconnectedness and risk taking, leading up to the financial crisis in 2 . The derivative-driven financial crisis ended up costing the U.S. economy 11 trillion and more than million obs. Two of the biggest culprits of mortgage fraud and bad derivative trading were organ hase and ank
of merica. ecently organ hase had its first uarterly loss in a decade because it set aside 2 billion for litigations. Federal prosecutors have charged organ hase with selling faulty mortgages to Fannie ae and Freddy ac. The settlement had been agreed at 1 billion, an all-time record, shattering the previous record set by BP’s ulf of exico il Spill at . billion. Fannie Mae and Freddy Mac were also sold fraudulent mortgages by ountrywide, now owned by ank of merica. Federal prosecuters and Bank of merica have recently reached a million settlement over the issue. Finally, after five years, there has been some ustice done to hold all Street firms accountable. As students entering the workplace, it is important to know that we are all entangled into the financial system through the securitization of our debts which has made the financial markets larger, more complex and unstable. The legal settlements of organ hase and ank of merica represent the root causes of the financial crisis, and if there isn’t serious financial reforms to address the derivative market, another financial crisis

will be inevitable. These derivatives, though highly profitable for the few on Wall Street, are risky and dangerous to the overall economy. Washington has been unable and unwilling to regulate derivatives, which caused the greatest financial crisis in our lifetimes. We students need to be prepared to live through another financial crisis, which may hit within the next few years because Washington, as usual, will be
unwilling to act in time. Joshua Hajiakbarifini is a 24-year-old political science and economics senior from Baton Rouge.

WISDOM TOOTH PAIN? Extended weekday and

junior wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. placed LSU’s second pass of the game right into the hands of Furman sophomore cornerback Reggie Thomas. With nothing but green in front of him, Thomas took the interception 74 yards to the house, giving the Paladins a 7-0 lead. “We just weren’t on the same page,” Beckham said. “It happens. It’s part of football.” The offense found its rhythm shortly afterward, as sophomore running back Jeremy Hill tied the game with an impressive 55-yard touchdown run on the ensuing drive. But the Tigers’ problems had only just begun. LSU’s defense struggled to get off the field in the first half, allowing Furman to earn 12 first downs — five of them on third- or fourth-down plays — and stay on the field for more than 22 of the half’s 30 minutes. In addition, redshirt freshman kicker Colby Delahoussaye, who had not missed a field goal or extra point all season, went wide on one of each. His miss from 31 yards out ended a streak of nine straight field goals and ended his night, as junior place kicker James Hairston took over kicking duties in the second half. Delahoussaye seemed to be favoring a leg after the missed field goal attempt, but Miles alluded that the problem was more than physical. “I’ve got to get my kicker going,” Miles said. “Delahoussaye, he’s got to be comfortable. I think he’s nicked a little bit, but I think he’ll be fine.” To cap off the dreadful half, Beckham muffed a punt, allowing Furman to take over at LSU’s 28yard line with less than two minutes remaining in the second quarter and a chance to tie the game up. The defense held the Paladins weekend hours available for extractions. (225)766-6100 www.gardnerwadedds.com ________________________

Jongema said he hopes the event will become an annual way to remember his friend.
