Despite starting an hour and a half late due to lightning strikes, the Tennessee Volunteers (2-2-0) defeated the Eastern Tennessee State University Buccaneers (2-1-0) by one goal, 3-2, at home on Sunday night. Lightning wasn’t the only striking thing that night as sophomore Rylie O’Keefe struck three times on the night as well, with two assists and one goal for a career-high four points. Head coach Brian Pensky used the sophomore to orchestrate an offense that took 24 total shots during the game, including four from both O’Keefe and graduate student Hannah Wilkinson, who is easing her way back into the rotation after her Olympic appearance sat her out the first portion of the season. “Love the volume, and the quality of the shots was actually pretty good,” Pensky said. “The fact we were able to get 24 shots is obviously a positive, scoring three goals is obviously a positive, but we gotta make sure we’re making

their keeper make good saves.” Despite the constant influx of highquality looks for the Volunteers, the game was never out of question because of two timely pull back goals from ETSU to keep the match competitive. The two goals for the Buccaneers came from Italy native Eleonora Goldoni in the 55th minute followed by a penalty kick in the 63rd minute. The sophomore forward led ETSU with four total shot attempts. Both Pensky and O’Keefe are aware of the team dynamics that go into creating individual success in a single game. O’Keefe thanks her teammate’s communication, but Pensky sees the intangible leadership qualities and versatility that puts O’Keefe in a position to succeed on the field. “Her communication of the field is massive,” Pensky said. “Last year when she was still a freshman, she’s lining up and setting up walls and she’s demanding excellence from the players next to her in the wall, and the kid had been on campus at that point for about six weeks.” See O’KEEFE on Page 8

Beyoncé rules the MTV VMAs Beyoncé came away from the 2016 MTV VMAs with a grand total of six awards, including the video of the year for her track “Formation.” In one of her acceptance speeches, she thanked her family, especially her daughter, Blue, and husband, Jay-Z, for their continued support. Beyoncé, who was nominated for 11 awards that night, performed a 16 minute medley of tracks from her latest album, “Lemonade.” With her wins in 2016, Beyoncé holds the record for most VMA wins at 22, beating out Madonna with 20.

Nearly 600,000 commercial drones to be in air next year

Kaepernick continues his protest

The Federal Aviation Administration has released info estimating around 600,000 commercial drones will be registered next year. Currently, there are only 320,000 planes registered in our nation, to put it in perspective. These numbers come after the regulations for these aircraft were set. Businesses will be able to operate a drone carrying up to 55 pounds in a less populated area up to 400 feet in the air, and the drone must be in sight of the pilot. However, a business can apply to waive over these regulations if they can demonstrate how they will reduce risks.

Colin Kaepernick, quarterback for the San Fransisco ‘49ers, has decided to stay seated during the national anthem to show support for the Black Lives Matter movement. In an interview session with reporters on Sunday, Aug. 28, Kaepernick said,”To me, this is something that has to change. When there’s significant change, and I feel like that flag represents what it’s supposed to represent and this country is representing people the way that it’s supposed to, I’ll stand.” He hasn’t stood during the national anthem for the last three pre-season games this fall.

Four cases of Zika virus reported in Knox County Ravi Patel

Contributor

Beginning in 2015, Brazil and several other South American countries began reporting cases of a local transmission of Zika virus. The virus, first described in 1947, began to gain widespread attention after the recent American outbreak. Zika virus (ZIKV) is a single-stranded RNA flavivirus that is transmitted predominantly through a mosquito. The World Health Organization (WHO) reports that now 70 countries and territories have mosquito-borne transmission. In the United States, only two areas of Miami-Dade County (Florida) have been confirmed to have active transmission of Zika. The mosquitos that transmit Zika that are found throughout the South, are aggressive biters throughout the day and have the ability to carry Dengue, West Nile and other viruses in addition to Zika.

Fortunately, there have been no reported cases of local transmission of Zika virus in Knox county, however there currently exists four travel related cases. Aside from mosquito transmission, sexual transmission of Zika has also been reported in over ten countries. It is unclear exactly how long Zika can persist in bodily fluids. Currently, there is not a vaccine or prophylactic medication for Zika. Most people infected with Zika do not exhibit symptoms or may display only mild symptoms. Common symptoms may include: fever, rash, joint pain and conjunctivitis. Since no approved vaccine is available, prevention of mosquito bites is the best way to avoid acquiring Zika. The CDC recommends the use of longsleeved clothing, insect repellent containing DEET outdoors, protection during sexual intercourse and mosquito netting if sleeping outdoors or in an unscreened room. “It’s really about reducing the mos-

quito population,” Director of the Knox County Health Department Dr. Martha Buchanan said. “(The local transmission of Zika) is the biggest concern.” Zika can lead to serious complications in pregnancy as it is able to cross the fetal-placental barrier. Aside from microcephaly, a condition in which the head is smaller than average, other severe fetal brain defects such as hearing loss and and impaired growth have also been linked to Zika. “You want to make sure that the people that need to get tested get tested but people are not needlessly worried and coming in (to get) tested for Zika,” Spencer Gregg, director of the UT Student Health Center, said. It is suggested that individuals who have recently traveled to an area with Zika or pregnant females who may have been exposed be tested for the virus. The CDC does not recommend testing for men, children and non-pregnant females who do not show current symptoms.

Red zone awareness events kick off on campus Chris Salvemini

“

The Center for Health Education and Wellness rolled out the red carpet on Monday for students to learn about the red zone. The red zone is a period of time when sexual assaults are more likely to occur on college campuses. According to a 2007 Campus Sexual Assault Study, nearly 50 percent of sexual assaults occur between September and December, and as a result, the red zone begins at the start of the fall semester in late August and ends in late November, around Thanksgiving break. As UT enters the red zone, CHEW prepared a month-long series of events which seek to inform students about sexual assault. The events feature a long, red piece of fabric, symbolizing the red zone, which students can sign in a pledge to help stop sexual assault. The first event began in front of the

The 2007 Campus Sexual Assault Study found that 89.2 percent of victims of sexual assault had

consumed alcohol prior to the assault. “I think the red zone exists because people do not understand physical or mental cues and want to do whatever they want to do at the sake of somebody else’s life,” Ayanna Crenshaw, sopho-

more in child and family studies, said. UT came under fire for its sexual assault policies recently when eight victims filed a Title IX lawsuit this summer before settling the suit for $2.48 million. The university previously implemented programs to address a sexual assault on campus, such as recruiting new Title IX coordinators and creating a sexual assault response team. And while there are programs to support victims, the university also introduced preventative programs to educate people on sexual assault. “If you have to go to that individual, that individual may not tell you that they’ve been assaulted, but at the same time, at least they know that someone is there for them,” Gina Freeman, junior in political science, said. CHEW has first year studies classes for freshmen that address UT’s sexual assault policies and sexual assault in general. It also holds open sessions to help attendees learn how to recognize and respond to a sexual assault situation.

You’re a liar and I’m a hypocrite

Jarrod Nelson Socialized

You’re all liars. This is why I like writing. I can say things like that and you don’t get to scream at me. You just have to stare into the blank white void of negative digital space and absorb the pixelated version of my garbage opinion. Or you could turn the screen off and experience life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness enough to write your own column about it. Rarely does my work involve convincing people of anything. At least, not explicitly. I write for me, which is unhealthy and breeds egomania and obsessive thoughts faster than a petri dish and UV light mate to make Armageddon in a can. Rarely do I write for anyone. But right now, I’m writing for you. I’m writing to convince you that you’re all liars. I’m at an advantage on this one, since a lot of you might agree with me already. Cynicism thrives in stress-rich and success-starved environments. A lot of you want a qualifier instead. If that’s the case, I guess a lot of you actually should write your own column. Good lord, I need to get to the point. Okay, how many of you dialed a telephone today? Anyone roll up a window? Hang up a phone? Wire some money? None of you. Literally no one did those things. Think about it. Your phone doesn’t have a dial. Your

window works because of electricity. Money doesn’t even exist these days. It’s all wireless. Everyday you’re perpetuating anachronisms and lying your big orange butts off because the speed of technology is faster than the speed of language. Stop it. Please. I’m just kidding. Do whatever you want linguistically as long as you drop the word “loaf” from your vocabulary. But this raises an interesting point. There are a ton of phrases that have a lot more staying power than the technology that inspired them. Language is like a crippled tortoise. It’s slow to change, tastes bad in your mouth, and its attempts to do things quickly are ugly and hasten the death of culture. Vlog. Phablet. Bieber. Slacktivism. This is where I take some of the blame off of you. You see, we might all be liars, but I’m a massive hypocrite. As I think about it more those blur in my head but I really don’t want to dump lighter fluid on the small candle of cognitive dissonance that’s already burning an unsettling smell. See, slacktivism is what I do every day. I keep that insatiable beast alive on a steady IV of Facebook likes. Language hasn’t come up with the right word but I’m crystallizing its duct taped half-try. Look, there are things I truly care about. My passions

OPINIONS

and desires and ideas have been bared before you over the past year in this column. I blast my opinion out there and try share the opinions of others that I find valuable. But, are we even really doing anything by writing? Do the shares change people’s minds? Do the pixels really push action? It was Wednesday, I think, when this thought shot into my head. Driving down Volunteer, both windows down, air conditioner full blast, slowly eating away at the environment all for that amazing feeling of tiny beads of sweat cooling faster than my skin. I hooked a right onto Cumberland at the Pilot and came face to face with a solid wall of protestors. Fighting for their jobs. Holding signs up with clever slogans the billionaire governor won’t hear. Getting the word out. Sweating. I mean, I made a video about it once. At least I don’t call it a film. Jarrod Nelson is a junior in public relations and can be reached at jnelso47@vols.utk.edu.

On ancient friends, vast wealth and doing leisure Clint Graves If I’m Honest

I recently went boating with some rather ancient friends. And by ancient I don’t mean they are in any way elderly, but rather that I’ve known them for quite some time. Old friends, as it were, just not “old” friends. And since this venture came out of the pockets of some not-so-elderly people, you can probably guess that our boat was not the largest on the water. It was not the nicest to behold or the most powerful, expensive or luxurious. The best illustration of my point might well be our vessel’s horn, which was actually just a whistle. Note here that I didn’t say it was “like” a whistle, nor did I imply that the horn was a metaphorical whistle. No. Had we needed to signal loudly for whatever reason, we could have inadvertently stopped a nearby pick-up basketball game. Of course, I could also just state the scene simply: two 21-year-old mischief makers managed to rent a retro-fitted pontoon boat in Loudon. They then proceeded to putter approximately 34 miles, burn about nine gallons of fuel, pick up four additional passengers, crash into two docks and wave at upwards of 4,000 leisure craft enthusiasts who all had nicer leisure crafts than our daring heroes. In fact, one leisure craft was so nice that when it passed by, our raft-with-an-outboard-motor-and-clothroof got so excited that it actually wet itself.

And that incident was a catalyst that raised a thought, very gradually — as most of my thoughts arise — in my brain. How expensive is this habit anyway? Of course, I found my answer on the banks that surrounded our plucky vessel. All around us were what my real estate office would term “Previews” properties. That is, they were homes that cost more than $500,000. The answer to my question was simple: it costs more money than what a few college students splitting the cost of a pontoon rental six ways would possess for a very long time. Of course, I’ve known for quite some time that waterfront properties are, more often than not, exceedingly expensive. But I hadn’t realized just how expensive or how plentiful such properties are. For example, on one portion of our journey we encountered what looked like a giant version of Russian nesting dolls. Off in the distance sat massive structures — the owners’ primary residence — and then nearer to the banks sat smaller versions of the same structures — let’s call them leisure homes. Granted, when I say smaller, I don’t mean to imply these leisure homes were at all small. In fact, every leisure house I saw was much bigger than the whole building in which my shared apartment is situated. Now, if common socialism is to be believed, I would be moved to say that I hadn’t seen picturesque,

Russian-nesting leisure homes. That, in point of fact, I had seen the root of all evil. But I don’t subscribe to common socialism for a multitude of reasons, all of which are tangent to my point. I didn’t witness the root of all evil. Instead, I witnessed a sort of wealth exercised in glorious fashion. They have money; good on them if they spend it. Indeed, we spent the day surrounded by wealth. Certainly, our little troop spent hours gazing at the massive boats and immense homes — the good that comes from levels of money that neither I, nor any of my comrades, may ever obtain. But that’s not the sort of wealth of which I speak. I count myself even luckier to have spent the day surrounded by people I care about and people who care about me. Those few souls, in tune with mine, puttered around a few miles of dirty water with a few snacks, a couple of drinks, hysteric laughter and rich conversation. I’ve come to realize that it isn’t a matter of how much it costs to do leisure. That day, we were the richest people on the water — we ancient friends. But, if I’m honest, we could have used a bigger boat. Clint Graves is a senior in communication studies and can be reached at bhr713@vols.utk.edu.

Let’s pretend that I don’t have social anxiety

Caroline Longmire This Is Fine

I spent the entire first month of my freshman year at UT internally reminding myself over and over again that I was totally fine walking around campus by myself. To an outsider, I was just another student seamlessly blending in with the thousands of people doing the death march up Ped Walkway or snaking through the traffic at the crosswalk. But inside my head, it was a different story. All sorts of fun and exciting questions run through your head in public places if you are one of the many lucky people who have the gift of social anxiety. My anxiety started as soon as I walked out the door of my dorm, into the heat and humidity which would completely engulf me and make me question whether or not life was worth living. My brain then immediately started cooking up thoughts like ‘I bet my arms look so fat in this tank-top’ or ‘I must be walking way too slow because three people just passed me and I probably look so lazy to them.’ However, the real fun didn’t start until I reached Ped Walkway and I saw all the clubs and organizations handing out flyers for things I knew I would never attend because of — you guessed it — my social anxiety. I walked straight down the middle so that I would have the best chance of avoiding my peers’ smiles or, God forbid, invitations to actually be part of something that might involve associating with people I didn’t know. Once I made it out of any socially anxious person’s hell, I either walked super slow or kicked it into high gear in order to time the crosswalk to avoid sprinting across the street with three seconds left. I watched in envy as my peers seemed to not have a care in the world as they jog-walked the last stretch of the crosswalk, or began crossing before the pedestrian sign even said to. How were they so sure that the yellow light would turn red? How did they know that by crossing the street when the light was just about to turn, they would become the coolestlooking person that had ever existed in the history of mankind? In my head I thought, ‘I will tell my grandchildren the tale of the student who crossed the street before the sign said we could. That person is the most amazing person I ever knew, and I met Steve Buscemi once.’ By the time I arrived at my first class of the day, I had worried enough to grow three new stomach ulcers and have material for therapy that I could stretch out for weeks. Oddly enough, I was not worried about being in a new class with people I had never met. I have never had a problem making friends and eventually assuming my role as the life of the party, the girl everybody

wants to do partner work with and the girl that everybody assumes has a really sweet and attractive boyfriend that brings her a drink from Starbucks on his way to her dorm room. Oh how wrong you are classmates. I am the girl that rules the school during class time and then literally wants to evaporate if somebody so much as looks in my direction hoping to exchange small talk. It’s like I’m Hannah Montana but instead of being half normal girl and half rockstar, I am half ‘so confident and chill that people hate me cause they ain’t me’ and half ‘please let the world end right now so I don’t have to talk to anyone.’ It’s a fun life I live. Now, if you have made it this far into my column and suffered along with me as I tell you, dear readers, things I should probably keep to myself if I want to have friends at this school, then I applaud you. I can’t help but wonder if you have stuck around this long because you are genuinely identifying with my problems and feel empowered by the fact that you too are not alone with your social anxiety, or if you just mentally zoned out but your eyes kept skimming the page. Either way, it’s fine with me. However, if you do happen to relate to my problems with social anxiety and feel like you might want to stop me on the street and tell me how excited you are for me to be the true voice for people with this problem, please don’t. I will see you coming and you better believe I will avoid your human interaction like the plague. Caroline Longmire is a sophomore in history and can be reached at clongmi2@vols. utk.edu

O’KEEFE continued from Page 1 Pensky complimented O’Keefe’s ability to play multiple positions and her “unbelievable engine.” O’Keefe believed the Volunteers actually recovered from a slow start and increasing their focus on offensive articulation lead to the victory. “I think there was a little bit of a lack of communication in the beginning,” O’Keefe said. “And then we bounced back and we really just kept strong and everyone kept talking. At one point I couldn’t even hear myself think because everyone was talking and it was really helpful to

hear everyone’s voices.” Pensky thought the win was what the Volunteers needed, heading into a two-game road trip that features games multiple time zones apart. On Friday, Sept. 2 the Volunteers will play against Bringham Young University in Provo, Utah against a crowd Pensky describes as “raucous.” Tennessee will then fly immediately to Washington, D.C. to play against American on Sunday, Sept. 4. The next home game will open SEC play and feature the Alabama Crimson Tide, which will take place at Regal Stadium on Sept. 9.

Tennessee locked in for App State

Associated Press

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Tennessee defensive line coach Steve Stripling believes the ninth-ranked Volunteers are more locked in for its game against Appalachian State than Michigan was in 2007. Stripling and Vols offensive coordinator Mike DeBord were on Michigan’s staff nine years ago when the fifth-ranked Wolverines lost 34-32 to Appalachian State in a game that marked the first time a Football Championship Subdivision program had ever beaten a Top 25 team. Now the Mountaineers are heading to Neyland Stadium on Thursday looking to upset another top 10 squad, but neither DeBord nor Stripling have talked much about that 2007 game to players. “It’s nine years ago, a long time ago,” DeBord said. “I’ve done a lot of things since (then). I don’t like to go back in the past with anything — anything good or bad. I try to live (for) today, and I’ve done that my whole life.” Stripling said he had brought up the 2007 result “just in passing” to his players. Stripling hasn’t spoken more about the game because he believes Tennessee’s players already understand the danger of overlooking Appalachian State. “I have not sensed that it needed to be brought up,” Stripling said. “I think we’re a very mature and focused defense right now.

I’m sure it will be brought up between now and game time, but I think at this point we’re really locked in.” Stripling said Michigan didn’t have that same type of focus heading into the 2007 game with Appalachian State. “I think we were looking at press clippings back that year,” Stripling said. Appalachian State, which went on to win its third straight FCS title in 2007, has since moved up to the Football Bowl Subdivision ranks. The Mountaineers went 11-2 last year and made their first bowl appearance, a 31-29 Camellia Bowl victory over Ohio. But the program remains best known for that victory over Michigan. Appalachian State has gone 0-6 against Power Five teams since, including a 52-14 loss to Michigan in 2014. Those six games had an average margin of 37.8 points. Michigan remains the highest-ranked team ever to lose to an FCS program. The only other instances of an FCS school beating a Top 25 team came when James Madison upset No. 13 Virginia Tech 21-16 in 2010 and Eastern Washington edged No. 25 Oregon State 49-46 in 2013. “Every time we play a Power Five school, it gets brought up — the Michigan game,” said Appalachian State coach Scott Satterfield, who was an assistant coach with the Mountaineers in 2007. “It kind of hurts us in a way because everybody that we’re playing always references that game to their teams.”

If someone were to go looking for Maya Neal, they would probably find her on the track, on the soccer pitch or in the classroom. She may be practicing her dribbling, perfecting her long jump or studying for a final in her major, business management. But one thing’s for certain: she will be giving her all for Tennessee. Neal competes in two varsity sports at the University of Tennessee — soccer and track and field. “Yeah, Maya’s a beast,” Tennessee soccer head coach Brian Pensky said. “You know, she plays hard, she trains hard, she’s a very focused athlete. She earned a spot in the starting lineup for the soccer team after taking an injury redshirt last season, and has impressed coaches with her quickness and aggression despite her 5-foot2 frame. “We lost her last year thirty minutes into our first game, and the kid plays hard,” Pensky continued. “She wants to be great. And obviously her speed speaks for itself, but her mentality and her effort and her want to be great are very impressive.” Neal scored two of the Vols’ four goals this season, including the first of her collegiate career that came in a 1-0 win against Liberty University. But Neal is also already making a name for herself on the track as well. Last season, she finished ninth with 5,091 points in the heptathlon at the SEC Outdoor Championships. She competed in eight events during the year, posting a first-place finish in the long jump at the Shamrock Invitational. Neal’s personal records include 25.30 in the

200 meter, 2:25.33 in the 800 meter and 1.57 in the long jump. When Neal signed with Tennessee for both track and soccer, Beth Alford-Sullivan, director of track and field/cross country had nothing but positive things to say. “Maya is an awesome kid and is going to be a multi-event athlete for us,” Alford-Sullivan told UTSports.com “She has some good experience in the jumps and the hurdles, so she’s a ballistic athlete to start with. She’s done the multi in the high school ranks and that’s what we’re looking for her to pursue collegiately.” Neal doesn’t see competing in both sports as a burden — rather, as a blessing. “Well, basically, after winter break I’m with track, so it’s not like that bad of a transition,” Neal said. “It doesn’t overlap much, and, I mean, I take the same mentality from track to soccer, or share what I learned from soccer to track, and vice versa. “Physically, it balances out the deficiencies with speed coming from track, and then endurance coming from soccer. It also teaches you discipline and managing your time, and also just keeping your head in the game at all times, in the classroom, on the field and on the track.” Neal attended Neuqua Valley High School, earning the most all-state awards in girls’ track and field program history. She also earned two Junior Olympic medals and five All-American honors. “I started running track because of both of my older brothers, but I just knew (it was) something I wanted to do since I started doing both (soccer and track), and I started both around the same time,” Neal said. “I just didn’t listen to people tell me, ‘Oh, you can’t do this, you can’t do that.’ That actually motivated me to want to continue to do both in college.”
