Pipeline explodes in North Texas; no injuries MILFORD (AP) — A drilling crew punctured a gas pipeline in North Texas on Thursday and triggered an explosion that led emergency personnel to evacuate a nearby town, according to the Ellis County Sheriff’s Office.

Officials said the explosion occurred about 9:30 a.m. at a rig near Milford, about 40 miles south of Dallas. A Chevron crew punctured a 10-inch line, and company spokesman Justin Higgs said the accident involves a liquefied petroleum gas pipeline.

Flames could be seen shooting into the air and some vehicles at the worksite burned. A column of billowing black smoke could be seen from miles away.

Sheriff ’s spokesman James Saulter said no injuries have been reported.

Students pursue wakeboarding success through club

By CALLIE POINDEXTER Staff Writer

As many Texas Tech students break out their winter coat and scarf, some are gassing up their boat and heading to the lake.

After traveling to Buffalo Springs Lake four times a week for practice, the Tech wakeboard and water ski club competes in its second competition of the semester this weekend in Austin.

Eric Vaubel, a junior advertising major from Austin and president of the club, said the cold weather does not stop them.

“It is cold,” Vaubel said. “We’re wearing wet suits and heater tops, which are tops of wet suits. We went out last Sunday, and it was pretty chilly, but as long as the weather’s nice you don’t really mind it that much. It’s kind of however cold you want to get. We’ll probably stop in December, kind of got a couple good weeks left.”

The club was created in 2004, he said, and now has about 35 members.

Growing up on Lake Travis in Austin, Vaudel said he began water skiing when he was 4 years old and picked up wakeboarding at 13.

“My whole family’s a big, big lake buff and everything like that,” Vaubel said. “Anything to do with a water sport, we do it, and we love it.”

Vaudel was appointed president of the club

his freshman year and said it is now comprised of only wakeboarders.

The team is sponsored by Malibu Boats and contributions from alumni help it stay afloat, Vaubel said.

“Not necessarily the original team that donates money,” Vaubel said, “they donate some money, but it’s people who actually went to Tech and have nothing to do with the water ski team originally. So that’s been really awesome is the alumni base that we’ve been having from Tech.”

The team usually practices from 2 p.m. until dark, Vaubel said.

Multiple team members drive to the lake for practice at various times, which allows students with other time commitments to still practice, whether it’s one set or multiple sets, Vaudel said.

Tech’s freshmen, sophomores and juniors may not have won a Big 12 Conference regular-season title or tournament title for the seniors, but the underclassmen were given one more chance to make it up to the seniors with a spot in the NCAA Division I women’s soccer tournament.

the loss to Oklahoma State was one of the most heartbreaking the team has dealt with this season.

The game meant so much to Tech because the tournament title was there for the taking, Strahan said, unlike the regular season title that was won by West Virginia with a 2-1 overtime victory against Oklahoma.

Lubbock residents swarmed to Costco for a preview party to celebrate the opening of the new supermarket at 6 p.m. Thursday.

The store is scheduled to open at 8 a.m. today.

Attendees gained a firsthand look at the supermarket and all of the items they could buy, such as free food and drinks, including fajitas, pizza, ice cream and a coffee station.

“The purpose of this event is to let the community of Lubbock see what Costco has to offer and to hopefully give them an opportunity to consider joining and becoming a member,” said Scott Huntington, the general manager of the new Costco.

By hosting the preview party, Costco’s goal was to show the people of Lubbock the quality and value of the items in the store, he said. The store hopes to gain membership with low prices and items offered.

Each department of Costco hosted a demo at the event, Huntington said. All the free food and drinks served at the event will be available for purchase when the store opens.

The event, which is hosted for every opening of a new Costco store, used to be a VIP-only event, but in recent years was opened to everyone, Huntington said.

Costco CEO Craig Jelinek and some of the higher-ranking people from the store attended the event.

given by the college, which totaled more than $2.4 million, helping most students pay about 15 percent of their tuition.

This year the College of Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources added 27 new scholarships, endowments and special funds available for students, according to program.

Associate professor Samuel Jackson said many factors are taken into consideration before awarding a scholarship.

He said there is a committee within the College of Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources, which is made up of representatives from each department, and they are in charge of administering scholarships.

“The committee considers scholar-

ship, such as their GPA, but also they choose based on what the representative knows about the student,” he said.

This event is also meant to recognize people for their accomplishments in the agriculture and natural resource industry, according to program.

The Gerald W. Thomas Outstanding Agriculturalist Award recognizes an individual in production, agribusiness and public service, according to the website.

This year Pierce Miller from Ozona was honored for his contribution in agricultural production, Jim Prewitt from Flower Mound for his contribution in agribusiness and Terry Crofoot from Slaton for his public service.

Miller gave a brief speech thanking his family and recognized Tech for what it does at the College of Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources. He left students with some words of encouragement.

“You have made a difference and continue to make a difference,” he said.

During Prewitt’s speech, he commended faculty for their work and encouraged them to keep doing just that.

To conclude the night Kelley gave a brief speech about the significance of College of Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources.

“What we do here is important because it helps feed people,” she said. ➤➤jsosa@dailytoreador.com

Tech chess team claims championship The Texas Tech chess team won the title of co-champions at the 17th Annual Texas Collegiate Championships on Sunday in Houston.

The team tied with University of Texas at Dallas for state honors, according to a news release.

The team sent two grandmasters and new recruits to the event, chess team coach Alex Onischuk said in the release. The team played spectacularly under pressure.

The individual collegiate cochampion at the event was topscorer and grandmaster Elshan Moradiabadi, who tied with UTD’s

grandmaster Ion Chirila, according to the release.

Tech outscored UTD and the University of Texas at Brownsville at the Southwest Collegiate Team Champions in March 2013 to repeat as regional champions, according to the release.

The team also consisted of Yaroslav Zherebukh, a freshman general studies major from Lviv, Ukraine, who is one of the top chess players in the world younger than 21 and has won the individual Southwest Championship.

Al Lawrence, a former executive director of the U.S. Chess Fed-

eration and the World Chess Hall of Fame, has led Tech’s team since July 2012, according to the release.

Lawrence said in the release the best thing he has done for the chess team is bringing Onischuk to Tech. He described Onischuk as a former U.S. champion who made a key difference in training at all levels and as a recruit magnet for young stars.

The goal of the chess program is to work with friends and colleagues to better chess, education, technology and research, according to its website.

The chess program is a part

of the Division of Institutional Diversity, Equity and Community Engagement and offers outreach programs to more than a dozen local schools and can provide teaching materials and other assistance upon request, according to the release.

The Tech chess program will host the Pan-American Intercollegiate Team Chess Championship Dec. 27 through Dec. 30 at the Overton Hotel for the competition’s first time in Lubbock. Spectators are welcome, according to the release. ➤➤cgrunden@dailytoreador.com

The College of Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources hosted the 86th annual scholarship banquet, known as the Pig Roast, at 6:30 p.m.

Thursday in the Lubbock Memorial Civic Center Banquet Hall.

The Pig Roast started in 1929 at the Livestock Pavilion as a send off for the livestock judging team as they left for the International Livestock Exposition in Chicago. During the send off ceremony, they roasted a pig, according to the program given at ceremony.

The ceremony was lead by Krysti Kelley, the president of the Student Agricultural Council and a junior agricultural communications major from Mission.

Kelley said the main purpose of the Pig Roast is to honor students, faculty and donors.

The ceremony showed a video of an alumna of the College of Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources who told her story about her experience at the college and how much help she had received from faculty, staff and, especially, her advisor.

The theme of this year’s Pig Roast was “Steer the Course.”

“The theme is to show how much influence your time at university has over the course of your life,” Michael Galyean, Dean of the College of Agriculture and Natural Resources, said. “The more mature you get you realize how your time here steers your course in life.”

Galyean said he was pleased to announce the College of Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources is doing well. He mentioned, this year, the college experienced a growth of 4.2 percent.

He said a big reason for the growth was due to the amount of scholarships

Students, faculty speak about long-distance relationships

By LIANA SOLIS Staff Writer

There’s an old saying that states, “long-distance relationships will kill you.” But are they really as bad or as hard as people say they are?

Many students, faculty and staff at Texas Tech are either willingly or unwillingly involved in a long-distance relationship with their significant other.

Avery Lindner, a freshman art major from Austin, just entered into a long-distance relationship with her boyfriend from Texas Christian University.

Lindner said they tried dating their senior year, but didn’t continue dating in college at first in fear of the distance.

“We just didn’t want to hold each other back,” Lindner said.

“So we still hung out during the summer and talked all the time, we just weren’t technically official.”

Although they weren’t counted as officially in a relationship, nothing changed when they each went their separate ways.

Once they began school at their separate universities, Lind-

“We offer it so people can come out as much as they want or as little as they want,” Vaudel said. “We don’t force anybody to ride, but whenever they’re there we encourage them to push their skill level and really get involved with the club to make it bigger and better.”

The boat goes out four times a week, Vaudel said, as long as it is running smoothly.

Whether the boat is operating correctly, however, is a key factor, said Chase Parten, a sophomore business entrepreneur major from Fort Worth and historian of the club.

“The biggest part of wakeboarding is the boat,” Parten said. “Boats never work. No matter how new, how much you put into it, there’s always some little thing that goes wrong. So it’s one thing just getting the boat in and out of the shop.”

Because wakeboarding is still a fairly new sport, there are only a few manufacturers that make wakeboarding equipment, which allows those manufacturers to control the market prices, Parten said.

Between the price of equipment, gas and boat maintenance, wakeboarding is an expensive sport, Vaubel said.

However, he said the team works

ner said, they realized they still wanted to be together.

“We just didn’t want to be with anyone else, even though we had met other people at our own schools,” Lindner said, “so we just kind of morphed into a couple again.”

Lindner and her boyfriend Anthony try to see each other every three or four weeks, even though they live five hours away.

Lindner said she was in a long-distance relationship before that didn’t work out, so she was a little skeptical going into the relationship.

“I was a little bit worried, but at the same time, Anthony and I have a much better relationship than I did with the other guy,” she said. “I knew this wouldn’t be as hard as my last one was.”

Hundreds of studies have been conducted at Tech and other universities about the affects of long-distance relationships.

Jennifer McAdams, a graduate instructor in the Department of Psychology, studies relationships and teaches a class about close relationships.

McAdams said more than 70 percent of college students were

or currently are in a long-distance relationship.

“There is mixed research on the satisfaction that people actually get from being separated from their partner because of distance,” she said. “Many people believe it’s harder to keep the passion alive, while others think it can strengthen a relationship.”

People who are in long-distance relationships, McAdams said, sometimes change the way their daily lives are once they don’t have their significant other around.

She said it can sometimes cause people to become secluded from society and make them discouraged to associate with the outside world.

“People in long-distance relationships miss out on the simple ‘hello-goodbye’ routine that couples who see each other every day go through,” McAdams said.

“That’s why we encourage them to do what they want and not sink into that seclusion.

Like any relationship, communication with each other also is crucial.

Sometimes couples that are separated hide their true emo-

tions, McAdams said, in fear of worrying the other person.

“They will say things like ‘It will be OK’ and pretend like they are fine when in reality they aren’t,” she said. “I encourage couples to share the way they really feel, especially when they are separated. If they don’t, the other person will never know and it could ultimately lead to their downfall.”

Although Lindner and Anthony chose to be in a long-distance relationship, some couples don’t have a choice.

Dustin Hahn, a graduate instructor in the College of Media and Communication, is teaching and living in Lubbock while his wife and child live in Clever.

Hahn said they originally were separated under unfortunate terms, but now are each finishing their degrees at separate universities.

“I was here trying to finish my degree and teaching for a year when she first moved back to Clever,” Hahn said. “We were going through a rough patch in our marriage, but fixed it after a while. So it changed into us being forced into separation instead of

to make it as affordable as possible for members.

“You do not have to have any of your own equipment,” Vaubel said. “We have enough people on the team that will let you borrow any of their equipment.”

The club participates in two competitions per semester, Vaubel said, and made it to the USA Wakeboard Nationals in Shreveport, La., placing seventh overall, last spring.

Wakeboarding competitions feature boat competitions, in which participants are pulled by a boat and cable competitions where competitors are pulled by a cable pulley system in the water and do tricks off of things such as rails, Parten said.

He prefers boat instead of cable, he said, and took a fall on a rail three years ago that resulted in a concussion.

“I was terrified,” Parten said. “I was underwater. I had no idea where I was. I mean I came up and I got on the boat and kind of started coming to. When you’re in the water after you have a concussion it’s terrifying because you have no idea where you are, how to get air. But I mean you get right back up on it.”

Parten is not the only member of the club who has experience with injuries, however. Vaudel has dislocated his arms a few times, he said, and tore his anterior cruciate ligament and meniscus in his knee more than a year ago.

Although taking falls can be rough, Vaubel said, it’s important to get right back on the board.

“It’s always fun to see somebody fall really hard,” Vaubel said, “but then get back up and land their trick or accomplish something that they’ve never accomplished. It feels really good to see somebody do that.”

Candace Foster, a junior restaurant, hotel and institutional management major from Rockport, has been a member of the club for three semesters and wakeboarding for four years.

Being a member has taught her the importance of communication between teammates and helped her grow as a wakeboarder, she said.

“Up until I got here,” Foster said, “I wasn’t really doing much besides just going in and out of the wake and kind of just riding, but when I got up here, I definitely had a lot of people that, you know, knew a whole lot more than I did and were able to coach me really well.”

Because she also is a member of Tech’s horse polo club, Foster said she has had to work to manage her time efficiently.

Seeing her improvement makes the hard work worth it, she said.

“It feels good, just like any other accomplishment,” Foster said. “You’ve been working hard at it, you take some falls here and there, you’re in cold water,

it’s windy or something, and then after all that you finally learn it and all the practice pays off.”

Dues for the club are $200 per semester and $300 for a full year, Vaubel said, with a $15 fee to cover gas when team members go out on the boat.

Wakeboard competitions have beginner, intermediate, advanced and open divisions, Vaubel said, which allows all team members to compete.

“So it’s really cool,” Vaubel said, “especially because we can take everybody and there’s different classes for everybody to ride in. So if you’re not that good, you don’t have to worry about it. You can always come out. You can still compete and feel like the collegiate aspect of the sport.”

The team is working toward getting permission for each of the major Texas schools to host a competition, which will give them the opportunity to qualify for Nationals without having to drive as far, Vaubel said.

Parten is looking forward to the competition this weekend with his teammates, he said, and hopes to continue to strive for improvement.

“That’s one of the big parts of wakeboarding,” Parten said, “is striving for everything, and I mean it takes a while, but when you do achieve the goals you’ve set, it’s huge personal satisfaction.” ➤➤cpoindexter@dailytoreador.com

Claims on German art trove face legal hurdles BERLIN (AP) — When German tax authorities entered the home of a recluse collector and found a trove of art that could include works stolen by the Nazis, they stepped into a legal quagmire — one that may end up being resolved by politics as much as the law.

For a year and a half, prosecutors kept their find quiet, hoping to trace the history of some 1,406 pieces by artists such

as Pablo Picasso, Henri Matisse and Marc Chagall before going public.

But since news of the case broke last week, officials have been scrambling to justify their secrecy and explain why Germany can’t just hand the pictures back to the heirs. At times German authorities have appeared to be working at cross purposes as they try to balance judicial independence with public relations.

Actress convicted of stalking Alec Baldwin NEW YORK (AP) — A Canadian actress who pined for Alec Baldwin was convicted Thursday of stalking him with yearning emails and phone calls that spiraled into unbidden appearances at his homes.

So voluble during her trial that she was held in contempt of court, Genevieve Sabourin was tearful but largely mum as a judge found her guilty of charges including stalking and harassment and sentenced her to six months in jail. That was on top of a month she’s already serving because of her courtroom outbursts.

“I haven’t done anything wrong.

I’m innocent,” she told Manhattan Criminal Court Judge Robert Mandelbaum when he invited her to speak. “You’re doing a mistake right now.”

Sabourin, who hails from the Montreal suburb of Candiac, had turned down a plea offer that would have spared her jail time.

Baldwin’s wife, Hilaria, said in a statement afterward that the two “feel safe, relieved and happy to move

forward” with the case resolved.

The “30 Rock” actor testified that Sabourin, 41, turned his life into a two-year-long horror film after they had dinner together. He said the evening was only a chat about her career prospects, not the romantic tryst she portrayed.

Baldwin, 55, said he repeatedly implored the actress to stop contacting him before she ultimately was arrested in front of his Manhattan apartment building in 2012, shortly after he and his wife got engaged. The Baldwins met in 2011.

Sabourin testified that the actor took her on a fairy-tale date that ended in bed, sketched out a future together and then sent mixed messages about whether he wanted to hear from and see her again.

“She’s not entitled to an explanation for a dream that he sold her?” her lawyer, Todd Spodek, said in a closing argument. “Mr. Baldwin doesn’t have carte blanche to use the criminal justice system to sort out his relationships.”

Ironically, it may be the strong protection of individual rights introduced after World War II that may support the legal argument that collector Cornelius Gurlitt should keep the works he inherited from his father Hildebrand, an art dealer who traded in works confiscated by the Nazis.

“His father did bad things during the Nazi period, but under our legal system you can’t punish the son for that,” said

Matthias Druba, a Berlin lawyer who has dealt with other art restitution cases.

Authorities are investigating whether the paintings, prints and drawings were “misappropriated.” But a spokesman for Augsburg prosecutors, who are handling the case, acknowledged that Germany’s 30-year statute of limitations for most criminal prosecutions could make a legal pursuit of the art difficult.

choosing to.”

Hahn took a year off of school to move back to Clever to spend some time with his wife and child.

There were times Hahn missed his family so much, he said, he actually though about dropping out of graduate school.

“The distance was really getting to me, and I really needed some time to be with them,” Hahn said. “Luckily, I had a really understanding support system here and all my professors and friends knew it was something I had to do.”

After taking one year off, Hahn moved back to Lubbock to finish his graduate degree while his wife stayed in Clever to finish hers.

Hahn said he tries to visit his family every other weekend,

and they FaceTime almost every night.

“Overall, it’s about $100 in gas and 10 hours of driving every weekend,” Hahn said. “But it has worked out well for us, and it seems like it is a lot easier this time around.”

Hahn plans to finish his graduate degree and move back to Clever to live with his family.

He said although long-distance relationships are never ideal, sometimes factors can make them necessary.

“If you really care about a person and are really close to them, you can overcome the distance,” Lindner said. “As long as you have full, complete, 100 percent trust in that person, there’s really nothing to worry about.” ➤➤lsolis@dailytoreador.com

Students can find Veterans deserve better treatment ways to earn money M Jordan Sigler Weston T turn your passion into a moneymaking opportunity. I enjoy new ingenious technologies, such as wearable technology or crypto currencies. As I feel this is the future of how we will interact with the physical and virtual world, I try to capitalize on that.

Understanding simple supply and demand and finding it in various products is something I try to do daily. Product flipping is a way for anyone to make a little cash by seeing that the demand exceeds the supply. Prime examples of this occurrence include the new PlayStation 4 and Xbox One launches.

Instead of viewing these launches as a new way to receive the latest gaming console, seeing and realizing if you purchase a couple units, they can be flipped online through eBay for hundreds of dollars in profit.

Understanding there are many ways to make an extra buck is an easy way not only to pursue your passion, but also to actually enjoy your work.

Stocks are a quick way to make money, but can be an even quicker way to lose it. Betting on a stock is like spinning a roulette wheel; no matter how great your chances seem, the market is truly unpredictable. Understanding how the market works can take years, but what better a time to slowly start understanding it than now?

Whether it be multi-level marketing companies, product flipping or playing the stocks, there are many different ways to be financially stable and free at the same time. Instead of settling for an hourly job, take a closer look at what you would be motivated selling, researching and pursuing.

There are an infinite amount of opportunities to actually enjoy what you do. It’s just all about finding what motivates you and not settling for the first job that comes your way.

cut as harshly as it was. According to RT.com, a Russian news website, SNAP was cut by $40 billion in a bill by House Republicans, which curbs out 3.8 million people — including veterans.

But it’s not just food banks that veterans need help with.

Some troubled veterans don’t even receive any benefits at all in what Al-Jazeera, a Qatar-based news website, calls “chaptering out” of military service members.

This is where service members who don’t receive an honorable discharge do not receive their hard-earned — often times with heavy sacrifice — veterans benefits.

ments.”

It’s a blight on us that these soldiers are thrown to the curb to save money. Soldiers who were not honorably discharged should be checked for PTSD or other brain injuries before they lose their benefits.

If they struggle with PTSD and other brain ailments, they should be adequately compensated for it to the degree they don’t have to stand in line at the food bank.

PTSD is fairly common among service members who fought in Afghanistan and Iraq. According to an article in The Daily Beast, the Department of Veterans Affairs released a report stating almost 30 percent of veterans treated at VA clinics and hospitals have PTSD. These mental illnesses make it hard for the former soldiers to integrate normally into society — being offered and holding a job is difficult in these situations.

Veterans who fought and served, giving their minds along with their bodies, deserve better. They should receive better compensation for their efforts and shouldn’t have to worry about where the next meal comes from.

Library Document Delivery Department helpful to students Have you ever needed a book while you are studying and the Library doesn’t own it? Have you ever wanted a video or book from our collection and you are at home? Have no fear, the Texas Tech University Libraries Document Delivery Department is here to help you.

Document Delivery is the department within the Library responsible for interlibrary loan — the process we use to borrow books and many other kinds of items from other universities.

Some of these items have included video games and specialized materials that may only exist in a few libraries throughout the world.

Another service offered by

Document Delivery is the retrieval of items owned by the Tech libraries. We pull the items for you and have them ready to pick up.

So how do you make a Document Delivery request? The process is simple — all you need to do is go to library.ttu.edu/docdel and sign in using your eRaider account. Once there, you can fill out a request for the item you want, and we will send you an email when it arrives.

Another way to make a request is to take advantage of the many linking options we use from other resources to automatically fill out the forms for you. One of those sources is a new program you will find on our Web page

called BorrowItNow. BorrowItNow is a direct link to all of the libraries in the Big 12 and Pacific-12 Conferences.

By using BorrowItNow, Tech students have unprecedented access to some of the best library collections in the nation. Students also can make requests from these collections and have items delivered to them in the Document Delivery office.

For items that need to be scanned, we provide you with an electronic copy that will be stored in your Document Delivery account. For books and other items that need to be shipped, we keep them in our office and let you know when they’re ready for you to pick up. Please remember that

items need time to arrive if they are shipped to us.

Document Delivery works very hard to provide students, faculty and staff with the resources they need anytime and anywhere.

The Document Delivery department is open from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Friday and is located in Room 130 on the ground floor of the Library.

If you would like to reach us after hours, feel free to email us at libraries.docdel@ttu.edu or take a look at some of our helpful videos on the Document Delivery Web page.

Talking in class rude, disrupts education of other students

By ZACHARY NEUENDORF Iowa State DaIly (Iowa State U.)

You’re sitting in class and the lecture is unfolding. Your mind is finally catching pace with the professor. Your focus is reaching an all time high. Everything is starting to make sense. Then, all of a sudden, the two students three seats down start conversing and giggling like chipmunks about God knows what — probably something to do with last night’s party or tonight’s party or the professor’s purple-stained button-down.

You’re certain they’ll quiet down.

After all, they want to understand the material, right?

Sure, their talk might decrescendo to an aggravating whisper that tickles your eardrum like a feather.

But by this time, you have lost complete grasp on the material, on the class, and on your life — all because a couple chatterboxes chit-chatted

EDITORIAL BOARD

“

Betts

Colorado Springs Gazette, has written extensively about the subject, according to the Al-Jazeera article, and calculated that more than 76,000 service members have been “chaptered out” since 2006.

Some of the service members being ousted are not being honorably discharged because of crimes, such as assault or substance abuse issues, which on the surface seems justifiable, but when you complicate the fact many of these people have post-traumatic stress disorder, it seems extremely inequitable to the folks who have given their most important organ — their brain.

According to the Al-Jazeera article, Philipps said on America Tonight that an Al-Jazeera TV program, “If you just look at the army combat post where the most soldiers are, the post that might be most affected

by PTSD, [there is a] 67-percent increase. So it seems to suggest that a lot of the misconduct is being driven by these constant deploy-

he days of living off one source of income are forever gone. With the cost of living rising yearly, it is now necessary for individuals and families to have another stream of income to live comfortably.

Anyone who is a full-time student, working part time and trying to have a social life understands that not only is time management important, but financial management also is a key factor.

Financial management is only a factor, though, if you have actual finances to manage.

When I hear from a student who says they cannot find a job, it means one thing: They are lazy and have not truly put any effort into finding a job. While there are a variety of part-time jobs available, such as working on campus, chain businesses or local businesses, many people view these jobs horribly because really, who likes work?

There are many options available to students that don’t require the typical 20 hours per week at the same location.

One popular option for students is to use multi-level marketing companies to help give them some extra spending money while supporting them through school. Companies such as Advocare, Herbalife and Mary Kay allow anyone 18 or older be a distributor and virtually own their own store and business.

I have seen many people succeed in any of these businesses, and the people sold on the idea or product usually are repeat customers, which means repeat sales.

Students should be wary, though, as there are many different sorts of pyramid schemes.

A pyramid scheme is basically a business model that doesn’t truly promote the sale of products, but instead pushes you, the initial recruiter, to pay a fee and recruit additional people to your “team.”

For every person you have sign up under you, you receive a percentage of the fee they pay and so on and so forth. It’s true there are many people who make tens of thousands of dollars each month based off pyramid schemes, but be careful as these sort of businesses usually collapse over time.

There are so many ways to

onday was Veterans Day, a national holiday — though not a day off school — to reflect and pay homage to the men and women who have given their all.

U.S. citizens have a duty to veterans, and that duty goes beyond the somnolent sitting at football games where we watch teams in military garb-like uniforms and clap for a designative or symbolic gesture.

We need to actually advocate for better care for veterans.

According to a cbslocal.com article, approximately 95,000 New York veterans are hungry during this chilly time of year.

The article quoted the president and CEO of the New York Food Bank, Margarette Purvis, who is concerned with trying to feed these heroes because food banks have lost $5 billion from the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program.

“On this Veterans Day, when we’re waving our flags — I need every New Yorker to know — 40 percent of New York City veterans are relying on soup kitchens and pantries,” she said in the article.

This is an incalculable blemish in the U.S. record books. These people need to be treated better.

a little too loudly and off-subject.

Of course, this example is a little hyperbolic. Regardless, we’ve all been unlucky enough to be victims of this sort of behavior, and most of us have probably committed such an act, like the hypocrites we are wired to be.

To many, myself included, this issue sounds like a second-grade teacher complaining about her rowdy, talkative bunch of kids. But when our second-grade teachers hushed us, it was more than just a defense of her sanity.

As I’m growing up, I’m learning what it means to value my education — part of that may be a natural matureness taking sail, but also that pretty (massive) price tag on tuition.

Either way, it means more.

Education has become tangible, almost like an animal that I have to exercise, feed and keep in check.

Even though in second grade, I loved

going to school and learning, I still talked out-of-place, because who would it hurt?

Turns out, for many, the biggest damage done comes from the habits those elementary disruptions can create and set in propulsion. Not much has changed for the typical student in those 10-odd years. We still talk during class, but we are sneakier about it.

We whisper, possibly the most annoying decibel level ever; it’s like letting the world know you know you shouldn’t be talking, but trying to cover that guilt by exhaling thunderous breaths with consonants. Also, we utilize our technology by texting, or if feeling particularly retro, passing notes like bashful middle-schoolers.

This one is definitely the better of the evils. No outside party gets distracted, penmanship and writing skills are activated, and it’s cute.

modes of distraction? Well, everyone within your voice’s orbit, including yourself. I have no right to tell you how to value your education — you could sleep or solitaire your way through all your classes for all I care, but I do have a right to tell you to respect my education.

When you talk out of place in class, you are simply disrespecting your peers. I’m not proclaiming myself as a saint of silence in the classroom; I’ve talked and disrespected an entire classroom, and in doing so, stole the precious currency of education from my classmates.

Since this is a habit, it’s hard for us to realize we’re doing it. It’s always second nature and rarely intentional.

Nonetheless, like nail chewing, nose picking and smoking, this bad habit is meant to be broken.

What’s the cure? I suggest we channel our second-grade teachers and shush ourselves up.

* College Baseball Hall of Fame announces name for building indicates “Game to Watch” and Guest Picker

By JEREMY KRAKOSKY Staff Writer

The National College Baseball Hall of Fame Board of Trustees announced the name of its facility to be built in Lubbock — the George H. W. Bush National College Baseball Hall of Fame.

Before serving as the 41st president of the United States, Bush played college baseball at Yale University.

Bush was the starting first baseman and team captain for Yale and led it to the first two College World Series in 1947 and 1948, according to a news release.

President and CEO of the Hall of Fame Mike Gustafson said the Hall of Fame is excited to use Bush’s name for the facility.

“It was a process that we first started back in about 2008,” Gustafson said. “In August, we forwarded them a proposal that we had put together with all of information: who we are, the plans of building and what it is we wanted to do. (Bush) agreed to it. I think he was flattered.”

The organization was founded in 2004 and the first Hall of Fame members were inducted in 2006. A campaign is underway to raise the $13 million needed to create the Hall of Fame building and create an endowment.

Gustafson said deciding whose name to use on the facility was easy. “(Bush) is not the greatest college baseball player of all

time or anything like that,” he said. “We picked him because he is the most distinguished alumnus of college baseball. Of all the people that have played the game, he’s gone on to accomplish the most in his life. We are thrilled to be able to honor a great man who has direct ties to college baseball in this way.”

Bush gladly accepted Gustafson’s proposal of the Hall of Fame facility.

Bush said in the release he is privileged to have his name on the Hall of Fame.

“To say I am pleased is an understatement,” he said in the release. “While my baseball days at Yale hardly measure up to the likes of my boyhood idol Lou Gehrig or Hall of Famers like Jackie Robinson or Dave Winfield, I genuinely love the game and am so very grateful for this honor — underserved though it may be.”

Based in Lubbock, the Hall of Fame is a nonprofit organization committed to honoring and preserving the history of college baseball, according to a release.

Gustafson said visitors to the Hall of Fame facility will have a memorable experience.

“The building is estimated to be at 35,000 square feet,” he said. “The facility will have a hall of fame exhibit area, a banquet hall for special events, and then a regulation-sized field with around 1,500 seats for games, tournaments, you name it. Those are the three key areas.”

The facility is set to begin construction in June, with an

A day before, Tech defeated West Virginia 2-0 and went on to finish unbeaten in conference during the regular season.

“Then for a while, for about a day or two, we were really upset,” Strahan said.

“But then, you know, we lost to Long Beach and went on a winning streak, so we all sat down and said ‘We lost, but we’ve got to be excited now and this has to fuel our fire.’”

The loss to Long Beach State was the first and only loss for much of Tech’s season. Following the Long Beach State game, Tech was sparked with a 16-game

unbeaten streak.

Junior defender Jaelene Hinkle said the Oklahoma State loss reminded Tech that playing hard for all 90 minutes is essential.

The attention brought to playing all 90 minutes caused the coaches to stress focus to the team, however this was not just the focus on the field, but off the field as well, Hinkle said. “(The coaches) really just have been telling us to focus on what we put in our bodies, get extra sleep,” Hinkle said.

“Any sort of edge we can give ourselves over our opponent this weekend is going to be key for lasting 90 minutes.”

Starting another winning streak is not going to prove easy for Tech.

Tech begins its tournament against

the Minnesota Golden Gophers, a team with a win against No. 4 seeded Penn State.

The Red Raiders have faced nonconference opponents from the Pacific 12, Big West, Big Sky and Mountain West Conferences. However, the Golden Gophers have the honor as the first Big Ten Conference opponent the Red Raiders face this season.

Coach Tom Stone said Big Ten teams are athletic and prepared to play in all conditions, so the contest between the Red Raiders and Golden Gophers sets up as one of the more intriguing first-round matchups.

Minnesota has one of the best attacking midfields along with an organized defense, Stone said.

“They’re going to be kind of a contest of wills here, which can kind of imprint their game plan on the other one,” Stone said.

Minnesota’s offense might not enter into the tournament at full strength. Its leading goal scorer, junior midfielder Katie Thyken, sustained an injury during the final game of the regular season against Illinois and did not play in the Big Ten tournament quarterfinals.

Both games resulted in losses for Minnesota, a 3-1 loss to Illinois and another 4-1 loss to Nebraska. The conclusion to the season for Minnesota was the second time it lost consecutive games.

Opponents shot more than the Golden Gophers with an advantage amounting to 46 shots.

WWW.DAILYTOREADOR.COM Twenty-three goals are the product of those shots, and freshman goalkeeper Tarah Hobbs was in front of the goal box for 21 of those goals.

Meanwhile, the Red Raiders only have allowed seven goals this season with senior goalkeeper Victoria Esson at the head of the defense.

The Golden Gophers’ defense, along with the goals and shots, has permitted opponents to shoot 50 percent of their shots on goal, an aspect of the game the Red Raiders had trouble with when facing the Cowboys.

The Red Raiders shot only four of their 15 shots on goal during the Nov. 8 loss to the Cowboys.

There are several techniques the Red Raiders are working to improve

their shots-on-goal percentage entering the tournament, Strahan said.

Details such as shots on goal have plenty of attention paid to them because the tournament run marks the end for the seniors’ collegiate soccer careers, Strahan said. However, she thinks the seniors are comforted by the love from the underclassmen and their work to prolong the postseason.

“These next however many games we play are like not for my benefit,” Strahan said. “I want to give them all to the seniors.”

The tournament begins at 7 p.m. today when the Red Raiders face the Golden Gophers at the John Walker Soccer Complex. ➤➤dhaile@dailytoreador.com
