Americans register anger, desire for change with their votes Associated Press WASHINGTON — Americans emphatically declared their anger at government and their desire for change Tuesday as they decided between two presidential candidates who failed to generate much excitement. Exit polls recorded the simmering discontent of the American electorate. Four in 10 voters said they were hungry for change, and those voters overwhelmingly favored Republican Donald Trump. Smaller voting blocs who were seeking a candidate with good judgment, experience or who cared about them favored Hillary Clinton. Nearly 7 in 10 voters said they were unhappy with the way the government is working, including a quarter who said they were outright angry, according to preliminary results of exit polls conducted for The Associated Press and television networks by Edison Research. Three-fourths of those angry voters backed Trump. Six in 10 voters said the country is on the wrong track. Other findings from the exit poll: WORKING-CLASS WHITES vs. CLINTON COALITION Trump dominated among white voters, especially non-college-educated men; Clinton’s coalition was made up of women, minorities and young people. Trump, who once famously declared that he
loved the uneducated, got plenty of love back from white voters who never graduated from college: He got 7 in 10 votes from non-collegeeducated white men and 6 in 10 votes from non-college-educated white women. The advantage Trump had among whites without a college degree compared with whites who graduated from college was the largest seen in exit polls for a Republican since the surveys started in 1972. Clinton, meanwhile, got the support of less than a quarter of white men without a college degree; Barack Obama, by contrast, drew about a third of their votes four years ago. TIMES TWO What kind of impact did third-party candidates Gary Johnson and Jill Stein have on the race? They siphoned more votes from Clinton than from Trump. A quarter of Johnson and Stein voters said they would have backed Clinton if they had to pick between the two major-party candidates. About 15 percent would have backed Trump. RACIAL SPLIT Even with his tough talk about Mexican immigrants, Trump held on to roughly the same share of Hispanic voters as Romney had claimed four years ago. Likewise, he was drawing about the same levels of support from black voters as Romney won. The Republican was drawing about a quarter of Hispanic voters and about less than 1 in 10 black voters.
TO BE HONEST ... Neither Trump nor Clinton gets bragging rights when it comes to honesty. About 6 out of 10 voters said they don’t view Clinton as honest and about the same share felt the same way about Trump. THE GENDER GAP It was the working-class white men backing Trump who helped to produce a gender gap with a capital “G’’ for Clinton. Tuesday’s election was on track to produce the largest gender gaps since the exit poll began: The gender gap for Clinton — the difference between the number of men who voted for her and the number of women who voted for her — hit 13 percentage points. Clinton’s support among women was roughly even with the support that women gave Obama in 2008 and 2012. MILLENNIALS VS. ELDERS Clinton managed to hang on to the millennials who were such a big part of Obama’s winning coalition. ___ The survey was conducted for The Associated Press and television networks by Edison Research with 23,583 voters as they left their polling places at 350 randomly selected sites throughout the United States supplemented by 4,404 telephone interviews with mail, early and absentee voters. The results among all those voting have a margin of sampling error of plus or minus 2 percentage points.

Microbiomes’ bacteria Funding available for watershed health initiatives influences malaria contraction Elizabeth Wood Contributor
With 60,000 miles of rivers and streams and more than 500,000 acres of lakes, Tennessee is home to one of the most biodiverse freshwater aquatic species in the country. Since two out of three Tennesseans live in urban areas, however, watershed health is an issue. The Tennessee Healthy Watershed Initiative (THWI) funds projects to preserve and restore healthy watersheds under the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation (TDEC). The initiative awarded $1.4 million to projects since its launch in 2011, with awards ranging from $20,000 to just over $157,000. TDEC Communications Officer Kim Schofinski said that what sets THWI apart is that it has supported restoration projects in addition to protection projects. Funding for the initiative still fluctuates. “Currently, there is not an established and consistent funding source,” Schofinski said. “We initiate a request for proposals when the commissioner’s office is able to find an available funding source.” Schofinski said following the application process, proposed projects are reviewed by a technical advisory group, which makes recommendations to the commissioner of which project to choose. Two of the 16 projects that received funding from THWI between 2012 and 2016 were undertaken by UT faculty members. Andrea Ludwig, associate professor in biosystems engineering and soil science and watershed faculty consortium chair, was awarded $90,000 in 2014 along with five UT faculty members to continue developing a handbook for developing water control measures for urban development projects. Ludwig said the handbook would be a resource for engineers to help protect waterways from increasing urban development.
“
Any work being funded at the state and federal level to help our natural resources is definitely high priority.” Andrea Ludwig, associate professor
“We’ve been pretty fortunate to be able to work with TDEC who has recently had some resources available to put forward on this sort of work,” Ludwig said. “I’ve been with the university for six years now, and I think the expectations for faculty to secure external funding are increasing every year and the amount of funding at the state and federal level for grants seems to be diminishing every year. We’re lucky that TDEC has had those resources available recently. Any work being funded at the state and federal level to help our natural resources is definitely high priority.” Jon Hathway, assistant professor in civil and environmental engineering, said his project on sustainable urban water management would not have been possible without a $113,000 award by THWI in 2014. “Funding such as the THWI are extremely important to my program, providing opportunities to study water quality controls, fund graduate students and provide educational opportunities for K-12 students and practitioners,” Hathaway said. THWI will accept applications for funding until Nov. 18.

A team of researchers embarked on a study of how the biological contents of the stomach can determine the severity of malaria viruses, focusing on the effects of a specific bacteria in the intestinal microbiome and how it can change the future of malaria research. A microbiome, in summary, is the environment of small living organisms and the microbiome inside of the body includes bacteria. Nathan Schmidt, former professor at UT and now at the University of Louisville, was researching malaria in lab mice over a series of locations. Schmidt then became aware of the differences in the contraction of malaria in mice that were genetically identical but had come from different vendors. This disrupted the replicability of the research, a major component in experiments. “Even though lots of researchers depend on these mice as being genetically identical, what we’re finding through this research ... is (the mice) gut microbes are actually having strong influence on how experiments are being carried out in research,” Joshua Stough, doctoral student in microbiology and leader of the second of these studies, said. When trying to comprise a solution, Schmidt and Steven Wilhelm, head of the department of microbiology at UT, kept returning to the idea of a microbial influence. Shawn Campagna, director of biological and small molecule mass spectrometry core at UT, explained that microbial development is influenced by how a person’s immune system interacts with the microbiome when young. In this case, the presence and activation of a particular bacteria of approximately 30 to 40 genes within the gut can determine the effects of malaria upon contraction. When the researchers infected the study mice with malaria, they realized some were not
getting as sick as others, despite their genetics. This was the evidence that led their research toward the conclusion that gut bacteria were altering the infection levels. By extracting and studying gut contents of susceptible and resistant mice, the researchers could determine that there was a difference in bacterial genes being turned on and off. “The mice that were susceptible to malaria had a different microbial community in them than the mice that were resistant,” Wilhelm said. “We now know that a variety of diseases ... are constrained by the microbiome. Scientist have gone as far as referring to (the microbiome) as your other genome.” Malaria research is one of the many studies being conducted that examines the active role microbiomes play in disease and diet. One treatment in the study was the use of yogurt which was fed to mice to study effects of the bacteria. The yogurt contained a high concentration of the bacteria to manipulate malaria contraction, and it was successful in aiding malaria resistance. “Yogurt really is a vehicle for the microbes,” Wilhelm said. Campagna and Wilhelm noted that yogurt could be a simple and effective method to lessen the severity of malaria for populations in malaria rampant countries, possibly reducing the half-million childhood deaths caused yearly due to the disease. “Not that it solves the problem, but it’s a cheap and easy way to help the problem,” Campagna said. The researchers are now looking forward to more hypotheses of why these bacterial and microbial differences in infection occur. Wilhelm refers to this work as “discovery science,” which points researchers in a simple direction for more information. “(If) we can alter the microbiome; we can alter the susceptibility to malaria,” Campagna said.

Second time’s the charm with Blackhorse Pub & Brewery Anthony Rivera Nestled in the back corner of Western Plaza, where Bearden meets Sequoyah Hills, and just a stone’s throw away from The University of Tennessee and Bearden Beer Market, lies a gem for local beer snobs and foodies alike, and it has been there twice. Blackhorse Pub & Brewery originally opened in 1992 in Historic Downtown Clarksville, Tennessee. In 1994, the owners decided to branch out to Knoxville soon after, but the beer scene here hadn’t yet taken off. So when their lease on the building was up, they sold it and returned to only having a location in Clarksville. A few years later, though, owner Jeff Robinson received a phone call from a friend. “One of my buddies back here in Knoxville called to tell me the building was up for sale again,” Robinson said. “After thinking it over, we decided it was time to come back to Knoxville.” The second time around has been different. The beer scene in Knoxville has picked up considerably, and Robinson has had no trouble getting the word out. “There’s definitely a higher demand for craft beer now than there was then,” Robinson said. “So instead of having the layout of a restaurant with a small brewery attached, this time around we’re a brewery with a small restaurant attached. We do our canning right here in the building, and we actually plan to expand on that with some of the extra room we still have here.” Blackhorse has been distributing to local taprooms, restaurants and grocery stores for some time now, and Robinson estimates that Blackhorse will close out 2016 with around 5,500
barrels brewed and distributed. They hope to increase that number in 2017 and shoot for 7,200. “I have no doubt that we’ll reach our goal next year,” Whit McHenry, assistant brewer, said. “I think we have some of the best beer in Knoxville, especially our Blackhorse IPA.” McHenry and head brewer Ben Copelin joined the Blackhorse team about two years ago after completing the Professional Brewing Certification course at South College. “There aren’t very many places in the U.S. where you can get certified like that yet,” McHenry said. “Most of the places that do have the programs have long waiting lists. South College didn’t, and it was an amazing and difficult program.” McHenry states that the beer was okay when he and Copelin joined the team, but that their hard work, dedication and love for the craft has made Blackhorse’s beer fantastic. Blackhorse’s beer ranges from many traditional ales, from a few high gravity brews, to a small selection of sweet ciders. Brewers’ Top Picks Blackhorse IPA Style: American IPA ABV: 6 IBU: 60 Appearance: Hazy Amber color. Moderate white head. Aroma: Grapefruit, sweet malts Taste: Grapefruit, lemon zest, bitter citrus finish. Medium body, moderate carbonation. This IPA has a strong aroma of grapefruit and citrus with a hint sweet toasted malts. It tastes exactly like it smells, and has a light to medium body, moderate carbonation, and a nice dry finish. The Blackhorse IPA earns its place at the table of
staple beers. Coffee Milk Stout Style: Milk/Sweet Stout ABV: 5.5 IBU: 30 Appearance: Jet black with a thin creamy head. Aroma: Espresso, semi-sweet chocolate. Taste: Espresso, dark chocolate, caramel. Roasted Malts. This dark, English-style milk stout is brewed with local Three Bears coffee. The smooth, roasty espresso flavor is particularly enjoyable during the cold seasons. Pick one up while it lasts! Barnstormer Red Style: Amber Ale ABV: 6 IBU: 13 Appearance: Hazy red orange. Lasting head. Aroma: Sweet, caramel, hints of butterscotch. Taste: Sweet caramel, toasted malts. Notes of
vanilla. Marketed as Blackhorse’s flagship brew, this smooth traditional red ale uses Hallertau hops, a type of aromatic Noble Hops, to accompany its sweet round finish. Its sweet start is rounded off by a finish of vanilla and toasted flavors. Vanilla Cream Ale Style: Cream Ale ABV: 3.8 Appearance: Crystal clear gold. Creamy white head. Aroma: Sweet with tons of vanilla. Taste: Mildly carbonated, with tons of vanilla flavor. Light malt notes. Fans of vanilla will love this beer. This creamy vanilla ale uses a combination of Vienna Malts and American Two Row Malts, along with natural vanilla bean. The low alcohol content, combined with the explosive vanilla flavor makes this an easily quaffable beer.
Vlogumentary For the past 10 years, video blogging or “vlogging” has become a very prominent form of entertainment on YouTube. Creators are sharing their lives for millions to see. So why do so many people around the world spend their time watching popular vloggers such as, Shay Carl, Charles Trippy and Casey Neistat live their everyday lives? “Vlogumentary,” a documentary available exclusively on YouTube Red, not only answers this question but also breaks down why YouTube as a medium is so successful. However, what really makes “Vlogumentary” intriguing is that it also discusses the burden it leaves on the shoulders of daily vloggers who have to please their audience by turning on the camera
and try to live in the moment at the same time. Rating: 10/10 Single by 30 Developed and created by Wong Fu Productions, “Single by 30” explores the relationship between Peter and Joanna. These two high school friends made the pact that if they were still single at the age of 30 then they would get married. However, they eventually lose touch and don’t reunite until 12 years later when they run into each other at a party and realize that they are both about to turn 30. What is really surprising about this show is that it actually feels like something you would watch on T.V. Wong Fu Productions got their
start on YouTube with comedy sketches and short films, so it was very unexpected to see them develop a show that is not only filled with jokes, but also has well-rounded characters and a plot that is very relatable. Rating: 8.5/10 Lazer team Created by Rooster Teeth, a production company that also runs the widely known YouTube channel with the same name, “Lazer team” was one of the first original movies released on YouTube Red. The movie follows four average men who come across a U.F.O ship that contains advanced gear that can be activated into a battle suit. The men accidentally activate the gear and become
stuck with the different pieces of armor that give them superhuman abilities such as strength and speed. Since they can’t separate themselves from the armor, they are forced to cooperate with the military to help save the world against aliens. From this synopsis it’s obvious that the plot of this movie is challenging or complicated. However, what makes the movie worth watching is the cast, which includes, Burnie Burns, Gavin Free, Colton Dunn and Michael Jones. With all of them being good friends, their on-screen chemistry really makes for a fun slapstick comedy. Rating: 7/10

Vickers embracing adjusted role with injuries Damichael Cole Contributor
Along with acting as an extra coach on the field, Vickers has also watched more film to help the guys out as well. While this seems like a big challenge, Vickers hasn’t viewed it that way. He continues his weekly approach to games and doesn’t let it bother him. The “next man up” approach has been the theme for the defensive tackles. With so many guys being injured and moving to the defensive tackle position, Vickers is very grateful for the adjusted role he has had to take on this season. “It’s fun,” Vickers said. “It’s unfortunate we have had so many guys fill in, but like we say every time it’s next man up. These guys want to come in and work and I appreciate thEntering the season opener, the top four defensive tackles on the depth chart were Kendal Vickers, Danny O’Brien, Shy Tuttle and Kahlil McKenzie. As of today, only one of those players will be playing for the remainder of this season. That player is Kendal Vickers, a redshirt junior who has started at defensive tackle the last two seasons for the Vols. After starting 13 games last season, Vickers has started all nine
games this season. And in this season, starting every game has been a rarity on an injuryriddled football team. While Vickers has remained healthy, his role on the team has continued to change. Vickers is in his fourth year in the program, so he’s already counted on to lead the defensive line. However, unexpectedly playing next to new players every week has adjusted his role on this team. “It’s a different approach for me, but the other guys are just going in and working every day,” Vickers said. “On the practice field I just make sure I’m coaching the guys up as well.” Tennessee has started to move players like Kyle Phillips and Jonathan Kongbo inside to help sure up the depth. Kyle Phillips is listed at 6 feet 4 inches and 259 pounds while Kongbo is listed at 6 feet 6 inches and 270 pounds. Compared to other defensive tackles on team, they are on the small side, but in fact, this gives them something in common with Vickers. “He came in with me he was 235 pounds and put on all this weight,” Offensive Lineman Brett Kendrick said. In four years, Vickers has worked to get up to 295 pounds. Vickers also came into Tennessee listed as a defensive end, so he knows what’s up ahead for Kongbo and Phillips. Earlier in the season, Vickers said that the
Kendal Vickers, #39, and the Vols defense stop the Ohio State offense on Sep. 17, 2016. Alex Phillips • The Daily Beacon position defensive tackle isn’t for everybody. “Defensive tackles in general have to be some of the toughest guys on the team.” “You have to defend double teams and you got 600 pounds on you,” he said. Vickers’s teammates have noticed his leadership role as well. Since the injuries, he has been
the guy to count on to help keep the defensive tackles together. “He’s a great leader on our team,” Kendrick said. “As people have gotten hurt his leadership role has had to step up and I think he is filling those shoes great.”

Is the SEC East unlucky or just plain bad?
Trenton Duffer
Sports editor
Watching the SEC East is like watching a car accident. You want to look away, but you just can’t. Now that car accident is being broadcast to all of America. And none of them are looking away either. Can you blame them? The SEC East is a dumpster fire of teams that kinda wanna compete in the SEC Championship but aren’t sure if they really, truly want to. You’ve got the frontrunner (can you call them a frontrunner?) Florida (6-2, 4-2 SEC) whose offense is nonexistent at this point. Granted, their defense is pretty good, but their offense is awful. They’re ranked 80th in points for, but are fifth in the nation for points against. Go figure. Meanwhile, Kentucky (5-4, 4-3) is sitting in second place, and it’s not even basketball season. The Wildcats have managed their usual hot start to the season, but they’re still not bowl eligible. Two years ago, Mark Stoops and the Wildcats started 5-0 before losing seven straight. I’m not worried about this team at all. Tied for third is South Carolina (5-4, 3-4) and Georgia (5-4, 3-4). The Gamecocks beat the Vols a couple of weeks ago and put the Vols in their current situation. South Carolina is riding the hot hand right now and a win over Florida this weekend would propel them into second. Georgia has been stumbling through the entire sea-
son. Nick Chubb, one of the best runners in the country, isn’t getting the carries he deserves, because the Bulldogs want to rely on a pass-heavy offense with a semi-accurate quarterback. Vanderbilt (1-4, 4-5) sits in sixth place and are 122nd in the country in points for. In layman’s terms, their offense sucks. However, they did nearly beat Auburn this weekend, so good job there, Vandy. Sitting in last is hapless Missouri. They’re really not that bad stat-wise, but they can’t put a complete game together. It’s embarrassing, really. Who am I leaving out? Those orange and white heartbreakers themselves – the Vols. Tennessee’s chances to win the East have gone from a surefire thing to a possibility to nonexistent to a “Wait, they can still ACTUALLY win it!” With losses to Texas A&M (the good), Alabama (the bad) and South Carolina (the ugly), the Vols have looked like … Well, it’s hard to describe how the Vols have looked. In an earlier column, I mentioned how they always play to the level of their opponent, and I stick by that. Okay, so the question I’m sure you’re wondering is how Tennessee wins the East, right? Well, it’s actually pretty simple. If Florida loses to either South Carolina or LSU and the Vols win out, then bang. Tennessee goes to Atlanta.
Wanna get really crazy? If Tennessee beats Kentucky and Vanderbilt but loses to Missouri, Florida loses two games and Georgia beats Auburn, then the Vols go to the SEC Championship game. Florida’s path is so much easier. The Gators win the East by beating the Gamecocks and the Tigers. Kentucky wins the East by beating Tennessee this weekend, if Florida loses both games. Heck, even South Carolina can win the East if the stars align. The SEC East is just plain terrible. Tennessee had the East wrapped up, but they shot themselves in the foot. That opened the door for Florida, but Florida pulled instead of pushed and couldn’t get in. Kentucky is bound to screw something up, and South Carolina has a better chance of winning the lottery. So who wins the SEC East? In all honesty, there is no winner here. Whoever does finish with “first place” next to their name is going to travel to Atlanta and get curb stomped by Alabama. And that lucky team will be Tennessee. The Vols will survive this dumpster fire of a division before being set aflame yet again by the Crimson Tide. Even if Tennessee doesn’t win the East, it has been almost humorous to watch every team kindly fall and let the other teams swoop into first. If only we had this kind of common courtesy in a presidential election.

great things,� Lady Vols head coach Holly Warlick said. “Anybody that’s running the point for us, they have to know what we’re in. They have to know the game. They’ve got to be able to relate that to the players. “I’m kind of, not out of the picture, but they’ve got to make sure they see things, relate it to me and make a decision. They’ve got to be the decision makers on the floor.� Middleton was forced to fill in and play vital minutes for the team behind senior Jordan Reynolds after sophomore Te’a Cooper was ruled out for the season with a left knee injury suffered during the summer. Middleton played in 29 games in 2015 but only started two. She played 27 total minutes against Carson-Newman, recording 10 points, six rebounds and two assists. “Alexa is going to be a better leader just by putting in the time and getting game experience,� Warlick said. “There’s a lot to be said about learning in practice, but game experience is huge.� As her role on the court is so heavily increased this year, she will be asked to lead the Lady Vols when Reynolds is off the court. Injury Report: Junior forward Kortney Dunbar did not suit up for the Lady Vols on Monday because of a sore foot. Dunbar was another addition to the night’s list of inactives that included Te’a Cooper and Cheridene Green. “It was my call,� Warlick said. “Her foot is sore and I didn’t want to press the issue. She’ll be available on Friday. I wanted her to stay off of it a little bit more, and so she’ll go with our depth.� After a string of injuries hurt the team’s depth during the offseason, questions were raised about how the squad would respond to the loss of depth. But redshirt junior guard Diamond DeShields showed no worry after the game Monday.
Alexa is going to be a better leader just by putting in the time and getting the game experience.� Holly Warlick, Lady Vols head coach
“We’re not ill equipped,� DeShields said. “We’ve got talent on this team. We’ve got the pieces to do something really special. So I don’t think we’re ill equipped for anything, any challenge. “What’s going to happen for us is we’re going to have to find it within ourselves because there isn’t two or three people down the bench to do it. It’s like: ‘What are the nine of us going to bring each and every night consistently to benefit this team?’� Up Next: Tennessee will travel to James Madison University in Washington, D.C. to take on the Dukes on Friday, Nov. 11. The Lady Vols now face a five game stretch in which four of those contests are away. “I think we’re excited to get on the road,� junior forward Jaime Nared said. “It’s always fun to go to new places. Of course, we love playing here and having a home crowd, but we like playing basketball. I think that’s the biggest thing. We’re excited to (go to) DC and play JMU.�

How to beat Str8ts â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Like Sudoku, no single number can repeat in any row or column. But... rows and columns are divided by black squares into compartments. These QHHG WR EH ÂżOOHG LQ ZLWK QXPEHUV WKDW complete a â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;straightâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. A straight is a set of numbers with no gaps but can be in any order, eg [4,2,3,5]. Clues in black cells remove that number as an option in that row and column, and are not part of any straight. Glance at the solution to see how â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;straightsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; are formed.
