Record Wrecked

Tech Health Sciences Center collaborator receives grant CerRx received a $1.1 million dollar grant for cancer study Monday.

The company, according to a Texas Tech news release, works with investigators at the Texas Tech Health Sciences Center School of Medicine Cancer Center.

The grant was awarded, according to the release, to support a Phase I study that will combine two lead investigational compounds: intravenous fenretinide and safingol. The combination, according to the release, is expected to work together to kill cancer cells by increasing toxic waxes in cancer cells.

Bill Simpson, chief operating officer, said, according to the release, that both compounds completed the first phase, single agent studies, and both have shown early signs of activity in cancer patients as well as in a laboratory setting.

“The SBIR funding,” he said, according to the release, “coupled with current Texas angel investor monies enables CerRx to work with the South Plains Oncology Consortium to conduct this innovative approach targeting cancer cells.”

Patrick Reynolds, chief scientific officer of CerRx and director at the Tech Health Sciences School of Medicine Cancer Center, said, according to the release, these trials are an exciting development in clinical trials.

“The combination of fenretinide plus safingol provides a very exciting and novel approach to selectively attacking cancer cells of many types in adults and children,” he said, “and we are delighted that this important clinical trial will be carried out here in Texas.”

Texas Tech football season tickets sold out, 38,502 total

By KAITLIN BAIN Staff Writer

Wednesday, football season tickets sold out, something that has never happened in Texas Tech school history.

The past record was set in 2010 when 32,227 seats were sold, according to a Tech Athletics news release, but all 38,502 tickets have been sold.

“This is a tremendous achievement from the best fans in the country,” Kliff Kingsbury, Tech football coach, said, according to the release. “I want to thank all the fans who have made the commitment to invest in our program. There is nothing like game day at the Jones AT&T Stadium and our team and coaches feed off your enthusiasm.”

While all the season tickets have been sold, there are still a few ways fans who did not buy season tickets can attend the games, according to the release.

Individual game tickets, as a result of returns from the visiting teams, will be offered to Red Raider Club members and current season ticket holders, according to the release, and all remaining inventory will go on sale to the general public in August.

Sarah Jones, sophomore art history major from Keller, Oklahoma, said, while she’s excited that fans are showing their support, she’s upset her parents might not be able to attend a game this season.

“It doesn’t seem like there are a lot of tickets left,” she said. “I know I’m a sophomore, but my parents still wanted to come for parents weekend and see a game and now who knows if they’ll be able to do that.”

In addition to the announcement that all season tickets were sold, additional parking options have been made available to fans, according to the release.

There will be additional parking available in the R-3 lot, south of the library, the R-5 lot, east of the media and communication building, and R-7, south of the administration building. A spot can be reserved, according to the release, with a donation and a permit fee.

TEXAS TECH ATHLETICS announced season tickets for the 2014 football season have been sold out. 38,502 tickets were sold.

This is the first time in the university’s history that season tickets have sold out.

Local coalition moves to limit smoking in Lubbock

Gunman in delivery man garb kills 4 kids, parents SPRING (AP) — A gunman dressed as a delivery man forced his way into his sister-in-law’s suburban Houston home where he held her children at gunpoint until their parents arrived.

Then he opened fire, killing four of the children and the two adults, law enforcement officials said Thursday.

Ronald Lee Haskell, 33, has been charged with multiple counts of capital murder in the killings Wednesday evening in Spring, the Harris County Sheriff’s Office said in a statement.

He also is accused of critically wounding a 15-year-old girl in the shooting rampage.

When he arrived at the door, Haskell demanded to know where he could find his estranged wife, the statement said. After the children’s parents, Katie, 33, and Stephen Stay, 39, arrived home, Haskell opened fire on the family.

Texas Tech students who are planning on participatingin recruitment will be the first to see the new additions and renovations to Greek Circle in the fall.

They have broken ground and construction is underway for Tech’s Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity lodge Holton Westbrook, Pike’s internal vice-president said.

“By rush we should have the basement done, and working on the foundation of the next three stories,” Westbrook said.

Pike plans on having their lodge complete in the spring of 2015 for their founders’ day.

The West Texas Smoke Free Coalition attended the Lubbock City Council meeting Thursday to tell stories and encourage legislators to limit smoking in the city in Lubbock.

Kavitha Selvan, treasurer for the coalition, said the organization is passionate to do whatever they can to stop the harmful affects smoking and secondhand smoke has on the body.

“There’s not enough space in the newspaper to publish all the reasons we’re passionate about protecting the employees of Lubbock,” she said, “but here are a few. As a medical student, we learn about the damage that not just smoking, but secondhand smoke causes to your bod. There are over 7,000 chemicals in cigarette smoke and over 70 of them are known carcinogens.”

She said she has seen firsthand the effects of such chemicals while working in clinics as a medical student.

Patients come in, she said, with chronic conditions such as emphysema, and she feels it is not fair that other people should have to suffer from these conditions because of someone else’s secondhand smoke.

The group, she said, is advocating for a more comprehensive smoke-free ordinance to be approved in the city of Lubbock that makes all indoor workplaces smoke free.

“To be more precise,” Matthew Harris, head of the coalition said, “we’re including any area that’s under the control of a public or private employer, but not including private residencies.”

The coalition has been active for longer than a year, she said, and 37 Texas cities have passed comprehensive smoke-free ordinances like the one they are proposing.

RENOVATIONS ARE UNDERWAY on the Pi Beta Phi and Pi Kappa Alpha house at Greek Circle.

Texas Tech to host Camp of Champions Editorial: Congressional candidate’s request unethical

By KYMBRE KUPATT Staff Writer

Texas Tech’s Heath, Exercise and Sport Sciences department will be hosting Camp Champion July 14-17, 8:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m.

Camp Champion is for ages five to 11 year olds and focuses on physical activities and motor skills, according to the Tech website.

Jeff Key, instructor and coordinator of community outreach for the department of health, exercise and sport sciences, said the camp is for the children participating to enhance

their motor skills and physical abilities and for the students that are helping with the camp to learn to teach elementary age students.

“We try to create activities and games that meet each one of those students needs,” Key said, “and most of the students that run it future education majors. We have the audience between five and 11 because that is generally what the age of an elementary student is.”

He said helping with this camp gives the students hands on experience working with children that they might not have ever been able to

have before.

“We are just giving them the opportunity to be able to teach,” he said.

“For a lot of the students this is the first time that they have actually taught that many students at one time.”

Mckenzi Spake, senior general studies major from Coleman said she is looking forward to being able to work with younger age children for the first time.

“I am just really excited about the age group we will be working with,” Spake said “and teaching them a skill that is going to stay with them the next few years that they

Smoking↵

are going to be able to perfect.”

She said the camp will give them hands on experience when working with kids and teach the students what will be expected of a P.E. coach for that age level.

“It is not just a bunch of games,” she said. “It is classroom management and how you would manage a large group of students at one time in that area, because whenever students come to a gym they don’t really expect to sit down and be quiet.”

Key said the each day of the four day long camp is equipped with different theme and different age appropri-

ate activities.

“We will have a theme each day,” he said. “One day we will do throwing and catching type stuff so they can accomplish throwing Frisbees and bean bags at targets. We will have a a basketball theme and a striking theme which will involve hockey and tennis.”

He said the activity stations differ for the different age levels of the participants, and each group stays at the station for 10 minutes.

“We divide the students by age and abilities, and It has worked out really well for us,” he said.

“If we are doing the striking theme we will have a station that has hockey and one that has tee ball or batting and another station that is doing paddles.”

Camp Champion is beneficial to both the participating children and the students running the camp Key said.

“We want the kids to have fun, but we also want to the students to learn how to teach,” he said.

Key said he is expecting 30 to 40 children to participate and around 30 students helping with the camp.

referring to evidence presented during Lakshminivasa Nerusu’s trial. “And all I could think about was: ‘Your mother’s already dead.

Your sister’s already dead and you’ll be dead in 10 minutes.’”

Police checking on the family’s welfare found their bodies two weeks later, but by that time, Nerusu was in India, where he fled the day after the murders.

He was arrested in 2013 and extradited back to the United States to face the charges. Authorities said domestic problems preceded the deaths.

Nerusu testified during trial that he “blacked out” and didn’t remember what happened the day of the killings and must have been insane. At Thursday’s sentencing, defense lawyer Lawrence Kaluzny repeated his client’s claim.

“It doesn’t make sense. It never will make sense,” Kaluzny told the judge. “The only thing that makes sense to me in talking with him is that there has to be a mental illness or something.

You don’t do this unless you’re mentally ill.”

But Grant alluded to Nerusu’s disenchantment with his life in the United States as the motivation behind his children’s deaths.

“Don’t ever say that you were a parent to them,” Grant told Nerusu. “Because they were two bright lights that you completely snuffed out because you wanted to get back to India where you could have been someone more important.

Parking will remain available, according to the release, at Raider Park, the United Supermarkets Arena, and the John Walker Soccer Complex.

“It is already a special event,” he said. “We will have alumni get together to see the competed house.”

For the first pledges for the Pike fraternity, the lodge has been a long time in the works, Javon Johnson, junior global supply chain major from Abilene said.

“I rushed spring 2013,” Johnson said. “Back then the house was still blue prints. It was just this big dream.”

For Johnson, the Pike lodge is about finishing what, the now, Pike alumni started.

“It is really about building something good for the older guys,” he said.

to find out how many rooms they have available for each football game,” she said.

“We also encourage hotels that are sold out to give our number to guests looking for rooms. This allows the guest to only call one location to find available rooms.”

Visit Lubbock has employed this procedure in the past, she said, with other potential sell-out events, such as Tech graduation, University Interscholastic League events, and the Texas FFA State Convention.

The reason hotels are already filling

up, she said, is that the typical football visitor to Lubbock make their reservations a year in advance, when they check out of the same hotel the year before.

With so many more people buying season tickets this year, more plans are being made ahead of time instead of individual tickets closer to the game.

Lubbock’s economy will also benefit from the increased number of fans at games, she said, and several hotels have already begun construction or announced new groundbreakings.

“It really about building something good for them, because these are the guys that helped build our chapter from the ground up, our founding fathers back in 2013 knowing they might never get to experience the house. So for us this is just a big step forward, not only for recruitment but organization for the fraternity as a whole.”

For the Pike fraternity, this lodge is not only their start in Greek circle, but also one of the largest Greek homes at Tech he said.

“It is supposed to be the number one Pike house in the country,” Westbrook said, “and it is the first house you really see when you enter Greek circle.”

He said though the house will be big for Pike, it will not change much

for the brotherhood or the fraternity.

“The number one thing for us is that we didn’t want to build a fraternity around a house,” he said, “so these first few years have been great without a house, because we were able to find guys that weren’t looking for the best house but we’re looking for a great fraternity.”

He said he believes the new lodge we will be a recruitment tool that will allow Pike to be able to pull the quality guys that want to see the chapter move forward and grow.

The Pi Beta Phi chapter at Texas Tech is also making changes to Greek circle with renovations to their lodge.

Morgan Kinloch, president of Pi Phi, said the lodge is going to be a breath of fresh air for the Pi

“Book early,” she said, “and book often.” ➤➤kbain@dailytoreador.com

Phi sisterhood.

“I think for us it is just going to bring such a good semester and just really new life to our sisterhood,” Kinloch said. “Our sisterhood is already so great and so close and we just needed a little more house.”

She said the renovations to the Pi Phi house were long overdue and it will be able to better accommodate the members after it is completed.

“Our house was diffidently the oldest on Greek circle and it was just time for a bigger lodge, especially if we are growing,” Kinloch said. “Our pledge classes keep getting bigger and bigger and we needed a lot more space for all of the girls. It is just going to make it a lot easier to hold everyone.”

Whitley Beedy, a sophomore early childhood education major from Floydata, said the effort that alumni put in to the renovation is outstanding.

“It means a lot because all of our alum and founders worked really hard to get us where we are today,” Beedy said, “and it means a lot to have something that is nice and new for us to be proud of.”

Kinloch said the new renovations of the lodge will not only better accommodate the new members, but it will be large enough to host alumni events as well.

“They are so excited and I have already gotten so many emails, we are going to hold a ton of alumni meetings there,” she said, “that we couldn’t fit before. We are scheduling alumni meetings, a ribbon cutting ceremony and opening day ceremony so all of the alums can come check it out. They are really really excited for us.” ➤➤kkupatt@dailytoreador.com

Man who killed Michigan family gets life in prison PONTIAC, Mich. (AP) — Lakshminivasa Nerusu stabbed his wife 59 times and later slit the throats of his two children when they returned to their Michigan home from school in 2008. After that, he spent nearly five years on the run in India, hiding from professional failure — and authorities.

On Thursday, the 46-year-old unemployed computer software programmer, who insists he was insane at the time of the brutal killings, was ordered to spend the rest of his life in prison.

But first, the graying, slight-ofbuild Nerusu listened to a judge harshly tell him that no murder case in her 18 years on the bench has so affected her.

“I have never presided over a trial where someone cold-bloodedly in a single swipe murdered their own children,” an angry Judge Nanci Grant told Nerusu in her Oakland County courtroom.

“I think you must be wholly, completely and vilely selfish.

“That doesn’t make you mentally ill, that makes you an evil human being,” Grant said.

A jury convicted Nerusu last month of first-degree murder in the Oct. 13, 2008, slayings of his wife, Jayalakshmi Nerusu, 37; 14-year-old daughter Tejasvi; and 12-year-old son Siva in their Novi home, northwest of Detroit.

Colorado clerk OK’d to give gay marriage licenses DENVER (AP) — A county clerk in a liberal Colorado college town can keep issuing marriage licenses to same-sex couples in defiance of the state’s gay-marriage ban, a judge ruled Thursday, noting the ban technically still exists but is “hanging on by a thread.”

District Court Judge Andrew Hartman decided Boulder County Clerk Hillary Hall can ignore a federal stay on a ruling from the 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Denver, which found states cannot set gender requirements for marriage.

The judge said gay marriage is

still illegal in Colorado but that Hall’s behavior was not harming anyone. But he said all who receive a license should be warned that the licenses could still be invalid if a court later finds that Hall didn’t have the authority to issue them.

Hartman also noted that every judge who has considered a gay marriage ban in the past year — including one in Colorado the previous afternoon — has found it unconstitutional. He said Colorado’s prohibition is “hanging on by a thread.”

Hall has issued more than 100 same-sex marriage licenses since

the 10th Circuit ruling on June 25.

Republican state Attorney General John Suthers sued Hall, the only clerk in Colorado who defied the federal stay.

Hall argued that despite the stay, Colorado’s gay-marriage ban violates the U.S. Constitution.

Suthers said Hall’s behavior was causing “legal chaos” while the issue works its way through the courts.

Nancy Leong, a University of Denver law professor, said Hartman’s ruling effectively allows government officials to sometimes disobey state law if they believe it violates the nation’s founding

Tech quarterback named to award watch list Tech kicker named to award watch list Texas Tech quarterback Davis Webb, a sophomore exercise and sport sciences major from Prosper, was named to the Maxwell Award Watch List on Monday.

The award, according to a Tech Athletics news release, is given every year to the college player of the year and has been given since 1937.

The watch list, according to the release, is generated by the Maxwell Football Club’s selection committee and analyzes past performance as well

as future potential when making their decisions.

Other Tech quarterbacks named to the watch list in the past, accordWEBB ing to the release, are Seth Doege, Graham Harrell, and

Cody Hodges.

Including Webb, 33 quarterbacks in the nation are on the list, according to the release, nine coming from the Big 12 Conference.

As a freshman, according to the release, Webb played 10 games, with six starts and passed for 2,718 yards, 20 touchdowns, and nine interceptions.

He also broke seven Big 12 Conference freshman records, including 20 passing touchdowns in one season. ➤➤kbain@dailytoreador.com

Chelsea Clinton speaking fees can reach $75,000 WASHINGTON (AP) — Like her high-profile parents, Chelsea Clinton is becoming a draw on the speaking circuit, with some organizations shelling out as much as $75,000 per speech.

The younger Clinton’s speaking fees, first reported by the New York Times, comes as her mother, Hillary Rodham Clinton, commands a reported $200,000 or more per speech while she considers another bid for the presidency.

The family’s finances have come under scrutiny in recent weeks after the former secretary of state said

during her recent book tour that the family was “dead broke” and in debt when husband Bill Clinton left the White House in January 2001. She later called that description “inartful.” The Washington Post reported that the former president has earned more than $100 million in speaking fees since leaving the White House in January 2001.

Student leaders at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, meanwhile, have protested the UNLV Foundation’s decision to pay the former first lady and New York senator $225,000 for a speech in

October. The University of California, Los Angeles, paid Hillary Clinton $300,000 to speak in March. Mrs. Clinton has said she donates her university fees to the Clinton Foundation.

The youngest Clinton has taken a leading role in the family’s philanthropic foundation, and she and her husband, Marc Mezvinsky, are expecting their first child in the fall. Her own compensation drew scrutiny when Politico reported that she earned $600,000 a year at NBC News, where she has infrequently appeared on camera as a special correspondent.

Kamyl Bazbaz, a spokesman for Chelsea Clinton, said the majority of her speeches are unpaid and “all speeches organized by the Harry Walker Agency are on behalf of the Clinton Foundation and 100 percent of the fees are remitted directly to the Foundation.”

The Clintons are represented by the New York-based Harry Walker Agency, which arranges paid speeches for political, business and media figures, including former Vice Presidents Dick Cheney and Al Gore, former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum and actor and former California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger.

At the competing Washington Speakers Bureau, for example, political figures like former Sens.

Bill Bradley of New Jersey and Christopher Dodd of Connecticut earn $25,000 to $40,000 per speech, according to the company’s website.

Texas Tech kicker Ryan Bustin, a senior business major from Kilgore, was named to the Lou Groza Collegiate Place-Kicker Award Watch List on Wednesday.

The award is presented by the Orange Bowl Committee, according to a Tech Athletics news release, and recognizes three finalists during a celebration in Palm Beach County.

Out of 30 kickers on the list, according to the release, four come from the Big 12 Conference. The other Big 12 Conference schools represented are Kansas State, the University of Oklahoma, and Texas Christian University.

He ranks third in reference

Police: Prostitute sought defense online in death SANTA CRUZ, Calif. (AP) — A high-priced prostitute charged in the overdose death of a Google executive aboard a yacht in California had searched online for how to legally defend herself after giving a lethal dose of heroin, police in California said Thursday, as authorities in Georgia reopened another overdose case.

Bar owner Dean Riopelle, 53, died of a heroin overdose in September 2013 in Milton, Georgia, about two months before Google executive Forrest Hayes died of an overdose on his yacht. Both had been seeing suspect Alix Tichelman, authorities said.

Milton police Capt. Shawn McCarty said Tichelman, 26, called 911 on Sept. 17 to report that Riopelle, her boyfriend, had overdosed. She told investigators that he had been drinking and using heroin throughout the day, and that she found him on the ground after she got out of a shower.

According to a police report, Tichelman said she tried to revive Riopelle for about five minutes before she called 911. She told police that he had been having a rough time but did not believe he overdosed intentionally.

Riopelle died a week later.

Tichelman has been described as a high-end prostitute by police

in California, where she is charged with manslaughter in Hayes’ death.

“Both subjects in these cases died of heroin overdoses so there’s just several factors we want to look at to make sure that we didn’t miss anything,” McCarty said.

Just before Riopelle’s death, Tichelman had been arrested on a battery charge after he told police that she bit his hand during an argument.

Riopelle had said that the woman took pills before they went to a bar he owned in Atlanta, where she drank, dove off the stage and exposed her breasts. After they returned to his home, they fought. She scratched his face and threatened to hit herself in the face and tell police he had done it, Riopelle said at the time.

In California, police say surveillance video shows Tichelman casually walking over Hayes as he lay dying on his yacht, picking up clothes and heroin and swallowing the last of a glass of wine before lowering the boat’s blinds and walking back on the dock to shore.

Hayes was found dead by the captain of his 50-foot yacht last November. Police said the surveillance video from the yacht shows everything that happened from the time Tichelman came aboard to when she left.

Clark said Hayes, 51, had hired

Tichelman before, and that their Nov. 23 encounter was a mutually consensual encounter including the introduction of the heroin.

The video shows Tichelman preparing the heroin to a liquid and injecting it into Hayes’ arm, Clark said. Shortly after, Hayes started clutching his chest, near his heart, Clark said. Tichelman tries to prop him up, but he then loses consciousness.

Tichelman then starts picking up her belongings, including the needle, and cleans up a counter while stepping over Hayes several times. During that time, Tichelman calmly drinks a glass of wine and surveys the scene, Clark said.

Tichelman then goes outside the cabin of the boat on the dock, looks back inside, then pulls down a window blind, closes a door and leaves, Clark said.

“Never does she call 911 or call out to others in nearby boats for help. She never tries to administer any aid to him,” Clark said about Tichelman. “She is more concerned about getting herself out and concealing evidence than helping Mr. Hayes.”

Clark said that investigators learned that Tichelman later did online searches “on how to defend herself after giving a lethal dose of heroin.”

Senators block election-year bill aiding hunters WASHINGTON (AP) — Republicans and liberal Democrats on Thursday derailed a Senate bill to help hunters and potentially aid Democratic senators seeking re-election in GOP-leaning states. It’s the latest bipartisan measure to fall victim to electionyear maneuvering.

The broadly popular legislation would have opened more

federal lands to hunters and other sportsmen, increased funds for shooting ranges and blocked government curbs on bullets and fishing gear containing lead. It also would have renewed some conservation programs.

But senators voted 56-41 against ending debate on the bill as the measure became enmeshed in gun politics. Supporters fell 19 votes

short of the 60 needed to move to a final vote, effectively derailing it.

All 45 Republicans voted against moving ahead on the legislation — enough to block the bill — as did 11 Democrats.

In May, a bipartisan bill promoting energy efficiency crumbled after Republicans demanded votes on the controversial Keystone XL oil pipeline and proposed Obama administration restrictions on greenhouse gas pollution from coal-fired power plants. That same month, a bipartisan effort to renew more than 50 expired tax breaks also died amid a dispute over amendments.

Thursday’s collapse of the sportsmen’s bill came after Republicans complained that Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., had blocked them from offering amendments, including some expanding gun rights.

Democratic opponents said they wanted to add new gun curbs. Opposition to the bill also came from groups including the Humane Society of the United States and the Natural Resources Defense Council, an environmental organization.

The measure was co-sponsored by 26 Republicans, 18 Democrats and one independent, an unusual show of bipartisanship at a time of sharp polarization between the two parties. The chief sponsors were Sens. Kay Hagan, D-N.C., and Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska, and it had strong backing from groups including the National Shooting Sports Foundation and the American Sportfishing Association.

The bill’s demise was telegraphed Wednesday after Reid blocked all amendments, saying Republicans were refusing to narrow theirs down to a manageable number in an effort to kill the legislation.

“They’re so tangled up with the tea party here, the tea party there, the people running for president,” Reid said after Thursday’s vote. “So what do they do?

They block everything.”

The National Rifle Association had said little about the bill whose lead Democratic author, Hagan, has an “F’’ rating from the group. But in a written statement Thursday, the NRA blamed “Sen. Harry Reid’s political agenda” for the measure’s downfall.
