The attorney for Rod Raymond has released an “open letter to the UMD community� comparing Raymond to the victims of the 1920 lynching of three black men in Duluth, asking people to stop assigning blame before things get out of control.

In 2009 Raymond, currently UMD’s Fitness and Wellness coordinator, was investigated for sexual harassment after complaints from two students were brought forward. The investigation, handled through the university, was settled and Raymond was kept on staff in spite of recommendations from the investigator that he be fired. It has been confirmed that he is again being investigated, but the details will not be released until the university reaches a verdict.

Raymond’s attorney Lindsay Jones writes that it is important for a community to remain fair and objective, saying that Ray-

mond’s treatment is a “miscarriage of justice.�

He recalls the historical hanging of three black men as an example. In 1920, what is now known as the 1920 Duluth lynching, three African-American men were accused of raping a teenage girl. Before a trial could be appointed, rumors of this rape got out of hand, and the three men were publicly hung from a lamppost on First Street in Duluth. “I share this story with the UMD community to ask you to pause in your judgment, to cease in the mob calls to lynch Mr. Raymond,� Jones wrote.

He also wants people “to remember the importance of allowing for due process, and to be open minded and patient, until both sides of the full story have an opportunity to be heard, so that the conflicting accounts can be fairly weighed and measured.�

Jones also goes on to attest to Raymond’s two decades of service at UMD, saying he helped create one of the best physical fitness and well-being programs in the country.

“Mr. Raymond is a graduate of UMD whose own personal and professional achievements demonstrate the pursuit of excellence,� Jones wrote in the statement. “This was Rodney Raymond before his good name and reputation was dragged through the mud.�

According to his personal website, Jones received his B.A. from UMD in 1988 and later studied law at the University of Minnesota Law School. He also worked at the St. Louis County Attorney’s office in Duluth. He is currently associate director for the Center for Advocacy and Dispute Resolution and adjunct professor of law at Emory University School of Law in Atlanta where he is also an attorney for Cook, Hall & Lampros, LLP law firm. Jones has made a career of defending individuals in civil rights, personal injury, consumer, employment, and wrongful death cases.

Minnesota made history this election by becoming the first state to reject a marriage amendment. “No other state has done what we just did,� said Josh Winters, the executive director of Minnesota Public Interest Research Group (MPIRG). “We did the impossible. We beat it. It’s just incredible.

It really speaks to the kind of state we live in.�

The defeat of the amendment that would have defined marriage as only being between one man and one woman was passed and added into 30 other state constitutions, making Minnesota the first state to break the trend.

The final count of the ballots showed 51 percent of Minnesotans voted against the amendment, while on college campuses the percentage was much higher.

On average, colleges across the state voted 79 percent in opposition to the amendment.

Specifically on the UMD campus, 76.3 percent of students that cast their ballot on campus in precinct 10 voted “no� on the marriage amendment.

Winters said that the high numbers are reflective of this generation, in that it doesn’t view gay marriage the same as older generations. “This younger generation looks at gay marriage very differently because they are connected, they know people who are out, they

have loved ones that are out,� Winters said. “Previous generations weren’t as connected.�

Because the race to define marriage was so tense, claiming to be statistical dead-heat just days before Minnesotans cast their votes, the high turnout on campuses election night was a key factor in the defeat. “It’s wonderful to see how influential the youth really are,� said Mariana Glitsos, a junior at UMD who is also the vice chair of the state board of directors for MPIRG. “We really do care about where our state and our country is going.�

Glitsos described election night as a “huge relief � and smiled as she recalled the moment she heard that the marriage amendment had been defeated. “I have never felt such an overwhelming emotion,� said Glitsos.

She also added she thought it was sad to be in a position of defending rights of friends and family in the first place.

Winters echoed this feeling, saying that tears of joy were definitely shed over the results that night. Even students not involved with MPIRG felt buoyant after the hearing the amendment was defeated.

Mikayla Schwartz, a junior at UMD from St. Francis, Minn., thought this year’s election was “interesting,� and said she was nervous voting for her first. see AMENDMENT, A3

option similar to Campus Park and Boulder Ridge in that it offers off-campus student housing with many amenities, but it is different in the fact that retail and restaurants will also be brought into the mix. “We offer about 12 different options depending on what you like,� said Director of Leasing for BlueStone Lofts Emily Lewis.

This fall students will be able to live, shop, hang out, tan and work out all under the same roof, and still be able to walk to campus.

Construction of BlueStone Lofts, which will include student housing and retail opportunities, is currently underway at the old Woodland Middle School site.

In our tech-abundant age, there is no shortage of distractions to keep us from the tasks at hand, and if not handled responsibly this constant flow of communication can come at a costly price.

In 2009, a study done by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) showed 5,474 deaths, as well as an additional 448,000 injuries, occurred on U.S roadways as a direct result of distracted driving that year.

Distracted driving, according to the NHTSA, is considered to be more than just talking on the phone. A variety of factors can keep a driver from looking at the road, including: GPS navigation systems, radios or MP3 players, and the most widely recognized, and perhaps deadliest, distraction of them all – texting.

According to the NHTSA’s website, “because text messaging requires visual, manual, and cognitive attention from the driver, it is by far the most alarming distraction.�

Edward Downs, professor in UMD’s Department of Communication, has studied the effects that these distractions can have on people trying to operate a vehicle.

Downs said the ways in which the human brain processes information can be broken down into three resources: cognitive, percep-

Election Decompression '&<=$13-0-$>3-0?+5+*0.3/$+@+/0$

BY MICHAEL SCOTT scot0459@d.umn.edu

Last Friday night on Superior Street in Duluth, UMD’s Master of Advocacy and Political Leadership (MAPL) program hosted “Election Decompression,” an event to bring all sides of politics together and discuss the election.

Wy Spano, founder and co-director of the MAPL program, said, “There was a lot of intensity in this election on all sides and we hoped to bring people who had been active in all the campaigns. People who had actually some sort of leadership role.”

Leaders from all walks of life, from a Minnesota Supreme Court justice to UMD student volunteers, spoke about the campaigns and the amendments that affected all of Minnesota.

“Everybody is important in this deal,” Spano said.

The focus of the event was to shift from election mode to governance.

“We hoped to bring them together to begin the process of focusing on governing rather than campaigning,” Spano said.

The focus shifted as many from the losing side did not respond to the invitations. The night ended up taking a celebratory tone, thanking campaign volunteers for their dedication and discussing how amendments came from behind to ultimately win.

The Minnesota marriage amendment was discussed as an example of how a grassroots campaign can flourish. There were hundreds of thousands of calls throughout the state of Minnesota, including tens of thousands in Duluth alone, thousands of doorto-door appeals, and a passionate base of

volunteers. as we do participants,” Spano said after the “Presumably we’re going to be pushing event. “We try to ask as many participants for a marriage equality bill for Minnesota,” as possible, ‘What happened?’” said UMD grad student and member of Many of UMD’S MAPL students were MAPL Stefan Heikel. He was optimistic active on campaigns this election season. about the future of the campaign.

“Truly an amazing experience,” said “Our energy is so high, we can now see Heikel. “Everything that could have gone the light at the end of the tunnel,” he said. right, did.”

Michael Freeman, Hennepin County attorney and former Minnesota state senator, discussed the voter ID law in personal terms. He told the story of his late father, World War II veteran and former Governor of Minnesota Orville Freeman. Freeman explained that if the law had been around when his father was in a nursing home, he wouldn’t have been able to vote because he didn’t have a valid photo identification during his time in the nursing home. He argued that, after extensive investigations of his own, he found no instances of voter fraud in Minnesota. In his opinion, Freeman said, the success of the campaign was showing Minnesotans that voter fraud was not an issue and would cost millions of dollars to implement, simply to restrict certain voters.

Election Decompression brought together leaders from throughout Minnesota to talk about the intense campaigns.

Students have the option of a studio, one bedroom, two bedrooms or four bedrooms and can have two people to a room if they would like to lower their monthly rent.

Another way BlueStone is different from campus is the apartments come completely furnished. The only thing students need to bring is appliances.

“This is luxury student living at its best,” Lewis said. “It has all the amenities of other student housing times 10.”

Some of the amenities include: a fitness area, study lounges, game rooms, underground parking, tanning and an outdoor patio area with grills and fire pits.

“They are more expensive than Campus Park and Boulder Ridge but you have to weigh your pros and cons,” Lewis said. “It is everything anybody could ever need.”

For a comparison, Campus Park’s monthly rent is $474, Boulder Ridge’s rent ranges from $420 to $615 and BlueStone’s rent ranges from $473 to $1350 depending on which options you go with and how many people the amount is divided between.

Lewis feels one of the main pros of BlueStone Lofts is its great views and its proximity to campus.

“It is going to be brand new and right next to campus,” Lewis said.

“Students can walk to school in their pajamas if they want to.”

BlueStone Lofts will have four floors including the main floor.

Lewis says the third and fourth floors will have spectacular views.

“There will be incredible views of the lake, downtown and the football field,” Lewis said. “Students can watch the game from their apartment.”

Lewis has worked in this industry for a while now and thinks that Duluth has been in great need of something like this for a long time.

Junior Blake Smith, studio art major, thinks this will be a great living opportunity for students.

“We could really use some more restaurants close to campus,” Smith said.

Smith knew about the option of new student housing but was unaware of the retail aspect of it.

“From what I’ve heard about them they sound excellent,” Smith said. “I’d love to live there.”

Sophomore Weston Obrycki, exercise science major, likes the idea that they are incorporating restaurants and housing in such a close proximity.

“It would allow for easy access and still be a good distance from campus,” Obrycki said. “I’m not that into shopping but the restaurants would be cool.”

Although Obrycki would love to consider BlueStone Lofts as an option, he will not be able to due to the price.

“That would be a price I would consider for a place after college,” Obrycki said.

BlueStone Lofts began leasing Nov. 1, and is currently leasing for the next academic year. Students will be able to move in Aug. 15.

“We expect it to be full within a couple months,” Lewis said.

As of right now they are only 10 percent full.

BlueStone is currently having conversations with multiple retailers and restaurants that are interested in the development.

No decisions have been made yet, but Lewis expects that in the next year we should see something on the premises.

“When you have two tasks that you’re engaging in concurrently— texting and driving—it requires both cognitive and perceptual resources,” Downs said. “When we start competing for resources, that’s when we get ourselves into trouble.”

Downs performed an experiment at UMD using a PlayStation 3, a steering wheel, and a copy of the auto-racing simulator, Gran Turismo. In the experiment, he had the participants attempt to navigate a car down a road, while also performing other distracting tasks, all within the safety of a computerized simulation. The participants filled out a survey both before and after the experiment, where they stated their likelihood of driving distracted. The results showed that participants were less likely to drive distracted after tak-

ing part in the experiment, which, according to Downs, is a key factor in getting people to stop texting and driving.

“Give them the experience and let them come to the conclusion on their own,” Downs said. “That’s going to be more relevant to them than a perceived authority telling them not to do it.”

Rob McMenemy, senior Communication student at UMD, said, “Technology is so integrated into our culture that it’s not an easy thing to forget about. It’s almost automatic, so it’s a process, you have to think about it.”

McMenemy added, “You get better at changing behavior. Through experiential learning, like what Dr. Downs talks about, that really assists the process.”

“Anybody can do this experiment,” said Downs. “We didn’t

need a $100K simulator; we did this with a PlayStation.”

Downs suggested this method could be used by parents of young drivers, or by driving instructors.

However, he warns the danger of sending a wrong message if the experiment is done incorrectly. In cases where a participant might perform well on the exercise, they might be inclined to believe they are good at driving while distracted. Parents must make sure that the right message is delivered, he said.

According to Downs, there is no safe alternative to distracted driving on a cellphone, even with hands-free devices.

“The safest place to keep your cellphone is in the trunk of your car,” he joked.

“It was pretty exciting that I made a difference in that.”

Now, the defeat is looked at as a huge success for gay rights and marriage equality, but gay marriage is still illegal under current Minnesota law.

“Although it’s not making gay

marriage legal at this point, it’s a step toward making it legal,” said Glitsos, who voted “no” on Nov. 6. “It was a huge fight to defend where we are now but to also raise awareness that we need to keep moving forward.”

The progress Glitsos hopes to see in Minnesota can be seen in states like Maine and Maryland, which legalized same-sex mar-

THE ELEPHANT GRAVEYARD Republicans will need to adapt if they wish to survive

BY MAXWELL HELMBERGER helmb048@morris.umn.edu

The People have spoken.

They have said that hope is stronger than fear, that love is stronger than hate, and that big money and voter suppression will never overcome the will of America. As such, President Barack Obama will retain that title for a second term. His victory was decisive to say the least—claiming a near 100-vote lead in the Electoral College and a slim majority of the popular vote. Th is election may not seem special to some. At the national level, not much appears to have changed.

The Republicans still control the House of Representatives, and so will likely still block Obama’s agenda even though their previously stated goal of making Obama a one-term president has been left unfulfi lled. Yet this election signals a shift in American politics—a shift that has grave implications for the future of the Grand Old Party.

Leading up the election, the GOP was convinced it would take the nation by storm. The economic recovery was not nearly as fast as many Americans had expected—and few understood whose

When women, minorities, and young people went into the voting booth, they saw in the name labeled “Republican” someone who at best did not represent their interests, or who at worst actively opposed them. Whether the person was calling pregnancy from rape a gift from God, calling for the elimination of Pell Grants or the privatization of Medicare, or fighting to cut the social safety net that so many depend on all so that millionaires can enjoy even lower tax rates, it’s safe to say that the GOP does not appeal to these voters. Which of course made Obama and the Democrats the natural selection.

If the GOP ever wants to be a powerful party again, they will have to change their outdated and extremist views to appeal more to the whole of America. Politics is no longer just a game for old white men to play. And in this new America, the Grand Old Party is no longer grand. It’s just old.

Some Tips Well, it’s clear there is a fundamental problem with the Republican Party. I think Stephen Colbert best summed it up when he said, “Now, Ike was a moderate Republican. For our younger audience, what are those?” The Republican Party has lost its way. It’s chosen to use its radical wing as the foundation of its party. Th is radical tone has found its way into Congress and during the 2012 elections. For the Republicans to be a viable option again, they need to abandon the radical elements and fight back for the center of the spectrum.

I’ve listed three simple ways they can improve their image.

1. The Republicans should seek a broader inclusive strategy. A major obstacle to their electoral viability is a set of radical positions they have taken on social legislation. How many outrageous comments did we hear on abortion this election? These comments went beyond the prochoice/pro-life divide. Republicans need to start talking about these issues in a different tone.

They need to be personal beliefs, not policy beliefs. For, by arguing in favor of legislation to limit personal behaviour, you are essentially forcing personal views on all of society, whether or not they agree with you. Of course, values

are important, and should guide how a person acts in his or her own life. But, it should remain as just that—a personal issue. In Canada, the Conservatives have decided to accept the same-sex marriage law in our country. I’m sure some of them disagree with the law, and that is their right, but they know our society has moved on. They realize that these views are no longer in stride with the broader Canadian value system.

To put this in a cold, political strategy as well: It’s simply bad politics. It’s just another wedge issue to divide the electorate and to consolidate the voters against you. Allowing people to do what they want to do is a matter of liberty, an idea this country was founded on.

2. Another suggestion is to follow a more moderate economic policy. Republicans can and should (as this is the basis of their party) promote lower taxes and a different economic agenda.

But there are limits. Republicans wanted cuts in the federal budget

and they can argue that. But, as what happened last year, to hold the country in limbo with the debt ceiling debacle is counterproductive. Those measures are traditionally bipartisan actions.

They should have accepted the debt ceiling raise and then argued their position on lower spending in consultation with the Democrats. There’s no need for theatrics. They should also seek to fi x certain programs, not abandon them altogether.

3. Th is brings me to my fi nal suggestion. Republicans need to cooperate in government or they will fi nd themselves relegated to the political sidelines. They can’t simply oppose all government action. Th ings need to get done.

It’s better to discuss issues and policies with your opposition.

There should be some give and take. That’s what politics is. It’s the consensus of differing points of view. It will not only allow Republicans to have concrete policy implementations, but will show the American electorate

that Republicans can work with the other side. Th is is especially necessary now since they will not be facing President Obama again in 2016. They need to show themselves as a party willing to help and fi x legislation, not to stand on the sidelines denouncing everything.

The American system requires cooperation from both sides. One party can’t rule alone. It’s better for the United States to know all represenatives are working cooperatively to ensure a consensus.

Without consensus, and without moderation, the United States will continue to feel divided and bitter. It can be fi xed. I’m not telling the Republican Party to give up its fundamental beliefs. That is a distinction that a two-party system needs. But, by simply tailoring their policies and bringing moderation back, they might fi nd more electoral success.

Letter to the editor !"#$%&'(&)*+, A closer look at Statesman advertising The Disney empire strikes back

-./0(123(0435

On page B6 of last weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s issue of The Statesman, Wednesday, Nov. 7, 2012, there is an advertisement for engagement rings from Security Jewelers with a large, color photo. Although I have my own reservations with jewelry advertisements in general, that is not why I write this. The problem I have with this advertisement is the blatant privileged, heteronormative, and male dominant messages it sends to its viewers.

I understand that The Statesman does not have control over the creation of Security Jewelersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; ads (who does, I have no idea, but I wish I knew so I could send them this letter too). However, what I believe you do have control over is the acceptance, the placement, and the regulations of the advertisements that are being put in The Statesman. As a young female student who is constantly fighting for the voices and equality of the female population on the UMD campus, I feel as if this ad encourages exactly the opposite. The image of physical male dominance (on top of her, holding her down) groping a young womanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s thigh who is clad in a short dress and high boots is exactly the sexualized

image of women that we (those who seek change in the representations of women in media) are trying to get away from. And all while the man is pinning her down the slogan insinuates that gett ing engaged is a â&#x20AC;&#x153;one-lifeâ&#x20AC;? stand which is, of course, better than a â&#x20AC;&#x153;one-nightâ&#x20AC;? stand (watch out all you women with safe sexual freedom, Security Jewelers thinks you should get married). Th is advertisement sends dangerous messages toward women of color, queer identified women (newsflashâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;some women have no desire to marry a man), women who may not be size Unachievable; and most of all women who are just trying to get through college without being sexually harassed, assaulted, or raped which all typically happen during these â&#x20AC;&#x153;one-nightâ&#x20AC;? stands Security Jewelers claims to be so against but contributes to. With the recent stories of Rod Raymond emerging (yet again, might I add), this advertisement encourages rape culture, and furthers the accepted image of dominating male seduction over women; giving men the idea that it is OK to do so and women the idea that it is â&#x20AC;&#x153;normalâ&#x20AC;? if it happens to

them. Do you really think that the two most recent women who have come forward with their stories are the ONLY two women Raymond has damaged physically and/or emotionally since the last accusations toward him?

I am not asking you, as The Statesman, to rise up against Security Jewelers in protest (weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll leave that to other feminists).

What I am asking is that there be deeper consideration into what kinds of ads; or better yet, what images and messages are being sent in the ads that are published in The Statesman. We, as humans, need to start being more inclusive and sensitive to marginalized populations and their experiences, as well as become more aware of the effects advertisements have on both men and women. If we do not, I am afraid we will consciously contribute to the rape culture that plagues our minds, media, campuses, humor, and society as a whole. I believe that sometimes what it takes to realize that is an email from a frustrated and conscientious student.

Th ree years ago, Disney bought Marvel Entertainment, everything from the comic books to the movies to the action figures.

Given how quickly that venture paid off (See â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Avengersâ&#x20AC;?), it is no surprise that Disney would want to go out on another lowrisk, high-reward business deal.

So how do you one-up the purchase of one of the most lucrative franchises right now? How about the purchase of one of the most lucrative franchises of all time? Last week, for the heft y sum of $4 billion, Disney did just that and bought Lucasfi lm and with it Star Wars, immediately announcing another trilogy of movies set to begin in 2015.

I, much like the Internet at large, was appropriately shocked.

While I had always loved SpiderMan and the X-Men growing up, Marvel as a whole was never truly all that important to me as a kid. Star Wars, however, is an entirely different story. I love Star Wars. My fi rst true memory of going to see a movie was â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Phantom Menaceâ&#x20AC;? on opening night. I grew up with the second (and far worse) trilogy of movies, I read the multitude of books, played the many video games, built the Legos, and even have a special edition Phantom Menace Monopoly board. Star Wars was such an immense part of my childhood and it now belongs to the same company where the rest of my childhood memories

of pop culture come from.

Maybe the most shocking part is that this deal even went through at all. George Lucas, a man infamous for his stubbornness when it comes to anyone else dealing with his vision, had literally sold his lifeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s work away to pay for retirement (and an incredibly generous charitable donation). Obviously, Star Wars is no stranger to selling out. George Lucas is more of a business man at this point than a fi lmmaker, but Star Wars was his baby. While the deal does say that Lucas will stay on in some advisory role, this deal effectively opens the door to anyone Disney can hire to make a Star Wars fi lm.

And I have to admit, this is an exciting prospect. When I saw â&#x20AC;&#x153;Revenge of the Sithâ&#x20AC;? in theaters, I was certain it was the last time I would ever see Star Wars on the big screen, 3D re-releases aside. The idea of seeing another Star Wars fi lm in theaters, possibly being made by someone who both gets Star Wars and knows what they are doing brings a smile to my face. Maybe this series doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to go out on a low note. The ball is in your court, Disney. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not asking for a game-changer like the original, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m just asking for a good movie.

At worst, another three bad Star Wars movies will give us another three RedLetterMedia reviews. And by â&#x20AC;&#x153;worst,â&#x20AC;? I mean â&#x20AC;&#x153;best.â&#x20AC;?

BULLDOGS PUNCH TICKET TO PLAYOFFS Nielson notches 100th win

BY BILL ZIEGLER ziegl149@d.umn.edu

Win and be in was the proposition Saturday for the Bulldogs, and they delivered.

Playing in cold, rainy and windy conditions at Malosky Stadium Saturday did not hold the team back from thrashing Northern State, 49-31.

The four-time defending NSIC champions will now advance to the playoffs as a result of this win. They will take on Missouri Western State University on the road next weekend.

A big milestone on the day for head coach Bob Nielson was his 100th career win.

The Bulldogs amassed an enormous 506 rushing yards. Quarterback Chase Vogler nearly matched the Bulldog single-game rushing record, with 224 on the ground (12 shy of the mark) and five touchdowns.

Keeping it on the ground was fitt ing for the day – an ideal remedy for the elements.

“Our guys have done a great job adapting to the different defenses and being prepared for what oth-

er defenses are going to give us,” Vogler said. “Our O-line and wide receiver cores have continued to grow and get better together, and our running backs and tight ends have continued to step up.”

Offensively, the Dogs got it done. Running back Logan Lauters recorded 149 yards rushing, 102 from fellow back Austin Sikorski, 7.5 average yards per carry leading to a showcase of an afternoon running for the home team.

The defense kept a powerful Northern offense in check and the rest of the contest essentially is history.

Aforementioned head coach Bob Nielson produced his 100th win as the leader of UMD football. The man at the helm has had a productive and impressive tenure with the Bulldogs. He has the proven ability to get the right pieces in place, perennially yielding competitive teams and fi nding the means to an end on the field.

The full NCAA field was announced Sunday.

UMD, the No. 6 seed in the region, will travel to St. Joseph, Mo., to take on No. 6-seeded Missouri Western Saturday at noon.

A new era of basketball is officially underway for fi rst-year head coach Matt Bowen and it didn’t go the way he wanted.

The University of Minnesota Duluth men’s basketball team lost its season home opener, 67-61, to the University of Wisconsin-Parkside on Sunday afternoon. It was the program’s fi rst home opener loss since 2007 and the fi rst time they lost a season opener dating back to the 2003-04 season.

“I was prett y disappointed,” said Bowen. “We didn’t play very well on either end of the floor. We left a lot of opportunities out there.”

UMD (0-1) got off to a rough start and couldn’t fi nd a rhythm in the fi rst half. The Rangers’ (1-0) strangling defense held the offense in check, holding the Bulldogs to 25 fi rst-half points on 8-of-27 shooting. The Bulldogs trailed by as many as 10 in the fi nal minutes of the fi rst half but cut the lead to

seven at the break.

Jake Hottenstine was the ringleader for the Bulldogs, scoring a game-high 22 points and adding five boards and four steals. Hottenstine would lead the charge for the Bulldogs in the second half. Down by seven with 8:31 left to play, Hottenstine scored five points to draw the Dogs within one. UMD would capture their fi rst lead of the game when sophomore forward Ben Bucholz gave UMD a 53-52 lead with his backdoor layup with 4:23 to go.

That slight one-point advantage didn’t last very long.

Twenty-two seconds later, UWParkside’s Jeremy Saffold put the Rangers back in front on the next possession. Then, Saffold would ice the game two minutes later with a step back jumper from the top of the key with a man in his face. Saffold also fi nished with a game-high 22 points.

“Give credit to Parkside, they made some shots at some difficult times which took the air out

of every run we had,” said Bowen.

“In the end, we had only six assists.

We didn’t move the ball, missed a lot of open cutters and missed about 10 point-blank layups.”

UMD tried to make another rally in the fi nal minutes but UWParkside wouldn’t give up the lead a second time. The victory for the Rangers snapped a 14-game losing streak dating back to last season.

“I’m proud of how hard we fought today, especially on a poor shooting day,” Hottenstine said.

“We fought and we got back into it and if we just could have made a few stops on defense, we could have a chance at the end of the game.”

The Bulldogs will have the chance to even their record and give Bowen his fi rst Bulldog victory in a non-conference matchup against Michigan Tech University on Saturday. Tipoff is at 6 p.m. after the conclusion of the women’s home opener.

Playing at a tournament in San Antonio, the UMD women’s basketball team came home this weekend with a win and a loss in their season-opening series.

The Bulldogs beat Central Oklahoma, 64-44, Saturday before falling to St. Mary’s (Texas), 71-63, Sunday at a tournament hosted by St. Mary’s.

The Bulldogs were led Saturday by junior Hannah Rutten, who put up 23 points in the game and shot 9-of-20 (45 percent) from the field. Fellow junior Katrina Newman contributed 15 points.

The Bulldogs led most of the way, pacing the Bronchos, 33-18, at halft ime. While the game remained close early, the Bulldogs pulled away with a 14-4 run in the fi nal 8:14 of the fi rst half.

The Bulldogs continued to pull away in the second. By the 10:48 mark of the quarter, they were up by 21, their largest lead of the game. Central Oklahoma continued to play in stride with UMD for the fi nal 10 minutes of the game, but the Bronchos couldn’t manage to chip away at the lead as the Bulldogs coasted to 64-44 victory.

UMD outshot Central Oklahoma, 37.8 to 21.4 percent, in the game. Both teams struggled from the three-point line, with UMD converting only two of 16 attempts and Central Oklahoma connecting on just one of seven.

The Bulldogs could not keep the momentum going as they faced off with another unfamiliar opponent, St. Mary’s University, Sunday.

Although the fi nal differential on the scoreboard was only eight points, the Bulldogs fell into a hole early and could not climb their way out. After starting with a 2-0 lead, the Bulldogs would trail the rest of the way.

The Ratt lers led by as much as 13 in the fi rst half before taking a 25-16 lead into halft ime. On the other side of the break, the lead was extended to as much as 15 early in the second, but the Bulldogs fought back. They pulled within six in the fi nal minute of the game, but their comeback efforts ran out of time as the Rattlers pulled off the 71-63 win.

The top scorer for the Bulldogs was junior Katrina Newman, who shot 10-of-23 (43.8 percent) from the field for 25 points. Rutten had another impressive game for UMD, backing up her performance with 12 points.

As a team, the Bulldogs saw a drop-off in their shooting percentage. UMD hit just 18.2 percent of their field goal attempts, while the Ratt lers hit 37.5 percent of their shots. The Bulldogs managed to connect on 5-of-14 threepointers, versus 5-of-11 for St. Mary’s.

UMD will hit the hardwood at home for the fi rst time this season Saturday to take on Michigan Tech. The game starts at 4 p.m. in Romano Gym and is the fi rst half of a doubleheader, with the men’s game to follow. The Bulldogs will then play Wisconsin-Superior in the annual Bridge Batt le, at 7 p.m.

Tuesday in Romano.

Th is year, the Bulldogs went to Omaha with a three-game winless streak and left with a five-game winless streak.

UMD fell to Nebraska-Omaha (6-3-1 overall, 4-1-1 WCHA) by scores of 3-2 and 6-3 in a rare Saturday/Sunday series at the CenturyLink Center in Omaha.

With the sweep, the Bulldogs (2-5-1 overall, 0-3-1 WCHA) fell out of the United States College Hockey Online top-20 poll for the fi rst time since October 2009.

The second period proved to be defensive for both sides until UNO put up two goals in the fi nal 1:14 of the period that sealed the Bulldogsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; fate. Andrej Sustr scored a power play goal and Zombo quickly added another to give the Mavericks a two-goal lead with only 10 seconds remaining in the second.

But UMD wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t done yet.

Freshman Austin Farley got on the board with a power play goal just 1:10 into the third. However, UNO recorded the gameâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fi nal two goals. Ryan Walters and Brent Gwidt delivered as the Mavericks coasted to victory.

The game was likely the worst of McNeelyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s young career. He allowed six goals, two each period, on 28 shots. Faulkner again earned the win with a 31-save performance.

The Bulldogs will head to Grand Forks this weekend for a Friday/ Saturday series with the University of North Dakota (4-3-1 overall, 2-1-1 WCHA). The series will mark the fi nal time the teams play each other as members of the WCHA.

While most college students are fast asleep at 4:30 a.m. on a Wednesday, UMD junior Alex Culp is gett ing into his boat and heading out for a duck hunt before class.

“It’s a way of life,” Culp said.

“I’m what you’d call a ‘hardcore waterfowl hunter.’”

Culp began duck hunting with his dad at age 11, the legal age to hunt small game with an adult in Minnesota, and has been addicted ever since. Th is year, Culp has decided to share his love of duck hunting with Duluth residents, and UMD students in particular, by starting the North Shore Divers Guide Service, leading them on duck hunts around Duluth.

“I’ve been hunting ever since I became of age,” Culp said. “I don’t think a lot of students at UMD have had that chance, and that’s a huge reason why I wanted to start guiding up here—to expose them to the sport.”

When Culp fi rst began hunting, he says success didn’t come easily.

To him, this played a significant role in his love for the sport.

“You’ve got to have bad days to make the good ones feel special,” he said. “Duck hunting isn’t easy, and that’s one of the things I love about it—the challenge. I love working hard, going out early to

set up decoys, working the birds to you with calls, and having them fly right by you with their wings cupped. All of this is what keeps me going out every year.”

As he got older, Culp continued to hunt and success came more frequently to him in the field. He learned a lot about hunting through the years, and is now using it all through his guiding.

Culp started his guiding career two years ago in his hometown of Lakeville, Minn., helping a local landowner out with his charity, “Life Rebuilders.” According to Culp, the charity helps people who have just gotten out of jail, recovering alcoholics, and others who need to get their lives back on track.

“It’s a great charity, and it’s made over $300,000 in each of the last two years,” he said. “The guy who runs it asked me to take some of the donors out hunting on his land, and I was glad to help. They get some really good hunting, and I get access to the private property.

It works out great.”

According to Culp, the duck population in Duluth is significantly smaller than other areas he’s hunted around the state. With no advantages like private property access or large cornfields full of ducks, the preparation for a successful hunt becomes key. Sophomore Jake Hintze is the president of the Duluth chapter of Ducks

Unlimited, and has hunted with Culp more than 30 times this year.

Hintze says that Culp goes above and beyond to prepare for his hunts and make them successful.

“He spends countless hours scouting the day before the hunt,” he said. “In Duluth, you don’t have the opportunity for hunting fields and are forced to hunt the water.

A lot of preparation is needed for success, and a lot of talent for fi nding the right spot, sett ing decoys, and bringing the ducks to you, all of which (Culp) does greatly. It just speaks even more to how good he is at what he does.”

Culp’s talents have landed him a sponsorship with Lynch Mob Calls, a goose and duck call producing company that he is a ProStaff member for. With this, he is able to get discounts on their merchandise, and in return he uses their calls out in the field, promoting them to others while using them effectively—something that Hintze says Culp does with ease.

“It’s no wonder why they sponsor him, I’ve seen him work birds like no one else I’ve seen in my life,” he said. “Huge flocks of ducks or geese have flown past us, and he can work them back into a litt le hole we’re in with hardly any decoys out. It’s amazing.”

With all of the time Culp puts into preparing for hunts as well as the hunting itself, his time for his schoolwork and social life

becomes very limited. But Culp’s girlfriend of just over a year, Jaimee Naddy, says that he doesn’t let it affect him.

“He goes out three to five times per week, and hasn’t missed a Wednesday yet this season,” she said. “There are nights where he has to do homework, but he’s also sacrificed pulling an all-nighter so that he can still go hunting in the morning.”

As far as the effects of his hunting on her, Naddy says that she’s adapted to the lifestyle of dating a “hardcore waterfowl hunter.”

“It doesn’t really bother me, I’m just happy he’s out doing what he loves,” she said. “The space that we

get is actually good for our relationship, and I don’t want to be selfish. I’ve gone hunting with him a few times, so I know fi rsthand how happy he is when he’s hunting. The guide service is great for him.”

Culp says he loves just being out hunting with friends and family, but being successful is a huge plus—which for him and whoever he’s hunting with, is nearly always.

“We pride ourselves on gett ing birds every time we go out,” he said. “It takes a lot of extra work with the scouting and all the preparation, but being consistent is big to me, and that consistency is what I like to give to my clients.”

Robert Kennedy, Jr. makes appearance at UMD, speaks on environment, economy

BY CHRIS TEPPEN tepp0014@d.umn.edu

With the health of our planet’s environment in a seemingly unstoppable rate of decline, it isn’t unusual to feel intimidated.

You may feel like nobody knows the solution to the impending doom that awaits you.

But Robert Kennedy, Jr. has a possible solution that could prove to be beyond adequate.

“Once you build our (power) plant, it’s free energy forever,” Kennedy said to a crowd of about 300 people who came to see him speak at UMD’s Marshall Per-

forming Arts Center on Friday.

The plants he was referring to would produce wind and solar power.

Sustainable energy sources like these were the main talking points of Kennedy’s lecture.

He spoke about the importance of creating a free market to support clean energy, much like the market for coal is right now. He also highlighted the idea that the U.S. should institute a grid for the buying and selling of renewable energy.

This, Kennedy said, would allow for cheap, easily accessible, clean energy—a novelty that’s

not so easy to come by nowadays but would dramatically decrease our output of pollution through energy production.

“We need to do well by doing good,” said Kennedy. “Free market capitalism is efficient. And efficiency leads to the elimination of waste.”

The U.S. is currently ranked third in the world for potential solar energy, and is number one in wind energy. The Great Plains alone put out enough wind power to put other sources of energy to shame. According to Kennedy, if we harnessed the wind power available in the United States, it

would create enough energy to power all of North America for a long time.

Although the use of coal has remained relatively cheap due to government subsidies, its cost to the well-being of Americans is nothing to brag about. Around $1.3 trillion has been spent on these subsidies.

Kennedy’s speech marks the 150th Anniversary of the Land Grant Act, which set aside 30,000 acres of federal land in Minnesota for the advancement of liberal education and eventually led to the institution of UMD on that land. UMD is also celebrating the

40th anniversary of its American Indian Studies program, which is reflective of the Land Grant Act’s educational goals, and asked Kennedy to speak on behalf of the environment, an important topic within Native American culture.

People interested in environmental sustainability can take action by contacting any of the many environmental agencies around the Duluth area, including UMD’s own Environmental Science Club.

ALBUM SPOTLIGHT Artist: Bat for Lashes Album: The Haunted Man

! "#$!%&'!(#)*+)!,-./0!1+23+4!56*+!7#/8$+9!:#8;! !

As haunting as it is beautiful, Bat for Lashes latest work The Haunted Man is an incredibly varied and arranged album showing us that performer Natasha Khan has an ear for mixing incredibly different sounds to create something completely unique. Right from the opening track “Lilies” you hear the eerie synthesizers and keyboards mixed with electronic beats. It cuts all sound close to the end of track and you hear Khan sing so passionately the words “Thank God I’m alive” and then come bursting in a fantastic melody line with string instruments. What really stands out with her sound is how indefinable she makes it. Adding all types of instruments to very different sounding songs. The bouncier bass of the second track “All Your Gold” mixes so many unique instruments together you wouldn’t be able to tell if it was the same band if Khans singing wasn’t so dynamic and signature.

There is also the very good use of a male choir in the tracks “Oh Yeah” and the more dark title track “The Haunted Man” which uses the choir and a great snare to make it sound like military march. There are the slower ballads on the album that truly showcase Khan’s singing and arranging ability on tracks like the oceanic “Deep Sea Diver” or the incredibly beautiful piano and string heavy track “Laura”. What Bat for Lashes does above all else with this album is produce a great sounding album, original, captivating and just skillfully done work in music.

Movember

BY KATIE LOKOWICH lokow003@d.umn.edu

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s November, also known as Movember, and that means men around the world are getting hairy for charity. Just like â&#x20AC;&#x153;No Shave November,â&#x20AC;? Movember is an annual month-long event involving the growing of mustaches to

raise awareness of prostate cancer and other male cancer initiatives.

A group of men out of Melbourne, Australia, formed the Movember Foundation. It has inspired 1.9 million men to get mustachioed for the cause and has raised $299 million, according to the foundationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s website, movember.com.

Men who decide to participate become known as â&#x20AC;&#x153;Mo Bros,â&#x20AC;? as in men who started the month clean-shaven and grow a mustache throughout the month. The goal of the month-long event is to change the face of menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s health. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Men are encouraged to start the month with a cleanly shaven canvas on which to grow their

furry friend,â&#x20AC;? said Tony Hart, a Movember participant and DJ on Mix 108. â&#x20AC;&#x153;At the end of the month Mo Bros and Mo Sistas (female supporters of the foundation) should get together and celebrate by either throwing their own Movember party or attending one of the infamous Gala PartĂŠs around the world, the nearest being in Minneapolis Nov. 29,â&#x20AC;? said Hart on his Mix 108 blog.

Listed in the 2012 Global Journal as one of the top 100 NGOs (non-governmental organizations) in the world, Movember has been gaining global popularity since 2004.

For more information on the Foundation and ways to get involved, visit Mix108.com or movember.com.
