Tomblin promotes mental healthBy Kaity Wilson

Correspondent

Democratic Governor of West Virginia Earl Ray Tomblin traveled to West Virginia University Tues-day to support the Univer-sity in “holding every life precious.”

Tomblin, along with WVU President James P. Clements, representatives from the Student Govern-ment Association, WELL-

WVU: The Students’ Center of Health, the Carruth Cen-ter and the WVU Psychol-ogy Club gathered to honor National Suicide Preven-tion Month.

Tomblin said he is a strong advocate for suicide prevention in the state.

“Suicide is now the sec-ond leading cause of death for West Virginians be-tween 15 and 25 years old,” he said. “That’s simply heartbreaking.”

Tomblin has recently devoted his time to talking with high school students throughout the state about the issues of suicide aware-ness and prevention.

WVU SGA Presi-dent Zach Redding said the topic of suicide pre-vention has become an integral part of the SGA agenda.

Redding said the SGA is seeking to begin reach-ing out to help local high

school students. “We are really looking

forward to making a big, positive step in that direc-tion,” Redding said.

Various campus organi-zations will be brainstorm-ing new ways to reach out those at-risk students who may need help during September.

WVU psychiatrist Brian Quigley said he believes “awareness” is the funda-mental word in the efforts

throughout the month. “We are trying in what-

ever way we can to allow students to come see us,” he said.

The WVU program Hold-ing Every Life Precious, or HELP, aims to alleviate the stigma of asking for psychological help. HELP strives to encourage stu-dents to seek counseling as a positive solution to what-ever may be causing them distress.

“We need people to know it’s OK to ask for help, and it’s OK to ask people if they need help,” Clements said.

Tonight, the CEO of one of Amer-ica’s largest and most successful companies will bring his global per-spective on success and leadership to Morgantown to kick-off the 2012-13 David C. Hardesty Jr. Festival of Ideas.

Jeffrey Immelt, chairman and CEO of General Electric, will address the public with his lecture “Globaliza-tion and the Lessons of Leadership” at the Lyell B. Clay Concert Theater at 7:30 p.m.

Admission is free and open to the public, and parking is available in Lot 45 outside the Creative Arts Center.

Christine O’ Brien, a senior chem-ical engineering major from Cherry Hill, N.J., noted that Immelt’s pres-ence on campus will help her gain some knowledge that can’t be at-

tained in the classroom.“I think it’s awesome that a CEO

from such a high profile company is coming here,” she said. “It’s one thing for a professor to tell you how to succeed, but he is on a different level.”

General Electric, headquartered in Fairfield, Ct., is the sixth largest com-pany in the United States in terms of revenue and generated more than $14 billion in profits last year.

O’Brien said her familiarity with the company is derived from her family’s use of GE products and the fact that it is such a recognizable symbol in American culture.

“My family’s appliances are GE, (and) they like that it is an American company,” she said. “It’s a company that never stops trying to innovate.”

mechanical engineering student from Scott Depot, W.Va., sees Immelt as an executive who has achieved great success, and he pointed to GE as an ideal employer for when he en-ters the job market.

“It’s great to see some-one of such caliber com-ing to speak at the Festival of Ideas,” he said.

“GE employs all different types of the brightest engi-neers, so that’s certainly an exciting opportunity for those – including myself – in the engineering field. I was actually looking into the possibility of starting a career there after college; they are a company I really respect.”

Immelt, who is the com-pany’s ninth chairman, has been with GE since 1982 and assumed his role as chairman and CEO on Sep-tember 7, 2001.

In January 2011, Presi-dent Barack Obama named Immelt chairman of the Council on Jobs and Com-petitiveness, a group of

business executives, aca-demics and other leaders that consults the President on the economy.

Immelt has been named one of the “World’s Best CEOs” three times by Barron’s.

GE, which was founded in 1892, has been named one of “The World’s Most Respected Companies” in polls by Barron’s and the

Financial Times.Immelt graduated from

Dartmouth College in 1978 with a degree in applied mathematics and later went on to Harvard University, where he earned a Master of Business Administration in 1982.

The Festival of Ideas lec-ture series began in 1995 as the brainchild of former West Virginia University

president David C. Hard-esty Jr. Leaders in the are-nas of sports, politics, busi-ness, academia and more provide a series of lectures free to the public through-out the year on West Virgin-ia’s campus.

Tonight’s event will be broadcast live online at webcast.wvu.edu.

Vice President of WELL-WVU, said she believes leadWELL is especially im-portant because in some in-stances students feel more comfortable talking to someone in their peer group rather than a counselor.

Yura said a person may also be more inclined to seek professional help when a friend suggests it rather than someone they do not know.

Suicide prevention is one of the main platforms on which WELLWVU was created, Yura said.

“Our goal is to make ac-cessible all services to help prevent suicide,” she said.

The Carruth Center is located on the third floor of the Student Ser-vices Center and of-fers free counseling and psychological services to all WVU students and faculty.

by the events. “Those who lost their lives are endeared to us as heroes and as humans,” he said.

“We wanted to ensure that the sacrifices of so many are forever honored and remembered, not only by the SGA but by WVU as a whole.”

The WVU Air Force and Army Reserve Officers’ Training Corps was also in-volved by hosting a stand-ing vigil.

There was a WVU army and air force cadet in uni-form standing, guarding and keeping watch over the tree for 24 hours to pay respects.

“Even if I wasn’t in ROTC, being a part of this is something I can do to remember Sept. 11,” said ROTC member and senior Ben Carrero.

“What happened on that day has defined our gen-eration, and we should always try to remem-ber everything that has happened.”

Redding said he was excited for the opportunity to be a part of a commu-nity that honors the coura-

geous acts made by thou-sands of Americans on that day.

“Personally, I am very happy that I am engaged and work with individuals who are so committed to re-membering the sacrifices that were made on Sept. 11, 2001,” Redding said.

“As a person, Sept. 11 has shaped me and a lot of people’s lives. It has changed everything about our world,” Carrero said.

“ E v e r y t h i n g b e -fore and post tragedy is dramatically different. WVU being a part of this ceremony is the small-est thing we can do to give back.”

WVU sophomore Sa-die Kalathunkal said she wore a sweatshirt depicting an American flag to show her pride and support for America.

“This day is engraved in my mind. I remember it like yesterday,” she said.

“Sept. 11 is going to forever be an important day, and it is important to me to show pride in my country.

Remembering and hon-oring those that lost their lives is the least that we can do.”

networking opportunity.”The event is hosted by

the West Virginia Chapter of the AWIS.

Keesee said it is espe-cially important for women to understand their career choices in the STEM fields.

“One of the panelists, a member of AWIS-New Jer-sey, contacted me to set up a meeting with AWIS-West Virginia members while she is in town for a software validation and verification conference,” she said.

“Her position as a pri-vate consultant gave me the idea to find a panel of women scientists that are pursuing non-academic careers.”

The event will host three panelists who will describe their jobs, how they chose them and the preparation required, and will answer audience questions.

The panelists at the event will be Mary Jo Egbert, PMP President of DynoVeloc-ity, a project management consulting and computer system validation firm;

Meredith Drosback, Ph.D., American Institute of Phys-ics Congressional fellow in the Senate Commerce, Sci-ence, and Transportation Committee; and Mary Beth Adams, Ph.D., Supervisory Soil Scientist for the United States Forest Service.

Although the event will be open to all students, Keesee said she hopes cer-tain majors will attend.

“It will be of specific in-terest to those considering or currently pursuing sci-ence and engineering ma-jors and graduate degrees,” she said.

According to awis.org, AWIS was formed In 1971 at a champagne mixer focused on tack-ling the problem of lower pay and workplace discrimination against women.

Twenty-seven women attended the event, and they went on to found AWIS in the interests of women in science and technology.

The event will provide refreshments and start at 5:45 p.m.

First Graduate and Professional school Fair todayBy shelBy tooMPas

staff writer

For the first time during fall semester, the Office of Graduate Education and Life in collaboration with the Office of Career Services is holding the 2012 Gradu-ate and Professional School Fair.

The 2013-14 graduate ad-missions process will kick off next week. The fair will allow students a one-stop shop to explore their gradu-ate school options and have their questions answered.

West Virginia Universi-ty’s Interim Program Direc-tor and co-organizer of this event, Katie Gallagher, said smaller versions of the fair have been held in the past at the end of the spring semes-ter. However, this is the first time a larger fair will take place in the fall.

The Graduate and Profes-sional School Fair brings to-gether representatives from all 14 WVU schools and col-leges, as well as representa-tives from graduate and pro-fessional schools across the country; allowing students to explore various options.

“We will host more than 50 schools and colleges across the country includ-ing schools such as Vir-ginia Tech, Boston College, Carnegie Mellon and more, in addition to those from WVU,” Gallagher said.

In the past, several hun-dred students have made their way through the fair to visit all of their options.

“Seniors and juniors with an interest in graduate or professional school should certainly stop by,” Gallagher said. “However, we also wel-come freshmen and soph-omores who might be con-

sidering grad school to stop by and start inquiring. These first two years are critical in making yourself appealing and a strong applicant for admission.”

The fair is open to stu-dents in all majors and there will be more than 50 repre-sentatives present at the event.

Two presentations titled, “Applying to and Funding for Graduate School,” will be held during the fair from 1-1:30 p.m. and again from 1:30-2 p.m.

“They will each be a brief focus on understanding the graduate admissions process, an explanation of funding for graduate school and a chance for questions and answers,” Gallagher said.

During the fair, four ap-plication fee waivers will be given out each hour, which

are valued at $60 each. There will be other give-

aways including t-shirts and miscellaneous Graduation Education items.

The Graduate and Pro-fessional School Fair is free students, alumni, staff or community members who are considering graduate education.

“I hear from students who often don’t understand the graduate admissions pro-cess or think that they can’t go on for a master’s, doc-torate or professional de-gree,” Gallagher said. “This event will allow students to inquire as well as see what is available and ask ques-tions, so that they under-stand the process and can be well prepared.”

For many students, get-ting a job after graduation may be the first thing on their mind; however, gradu-

ate and professional school can also help students be more marketable and de-sirable in the work force, she said.

Gallagher said, according to the Bureau of Labor and Statistics, for students with a master’s, doctorate or pro-fessional degree, unemploy-ment rates are 1.5 to 2.5 per-cent lower than those with only a bachelor’s degree.

“We’ve been planning this event for about six months and we hope to make this an annual event and increase the number of schools and colleges partici-pating,” Gallagher said.

“I hope students come to the fair to both learn more about the process and ex-plore their options so they are well prepared if grad-uate education is in their future.”

For students who can’t

make it to the fair, several other WVU schools and col-leges will be hosting their own open house and re-cruitment events through-out the year.

“I think this fair will com-pliment the other recruit-ment events and help stu-dents on focusing in and getting a jump start on the process in advance,” Galla-gher said.

The fair will be held today from 11 a.m.-3 p.m. in the Mountainlair Ballrooms.

WVU’s College of Busi-ness and Economics gradu-ate fair is scheduled for Sept. 26, and the School of Pub-lic Health and the School of Pharmacy’s will be Oct. 3.

THE DAILY ATHENAEUM SPORTS | 3Wednesday September 12, 2012

by cody schulermanaging editor

In the second week of the 2010 college football sea-son, a confident and talented James Madison team traveled to Blacksburg, Va., and upset in-state rival Virginia Tech in what is now known as a text-book example of what a Foot-ball Championship Subdivi-sion school can pull off on any given Saturday against a larger but unsuspecting opponent.

In West Virginia head coach Dana Holgorsen’s opinion, upsets like James Madison’s over Virginia Tech have be-come the rule rather than the exception.

“Anytime an FCS team plays an FBS team, you’re going to make reference to that, but it’s becoming more and more apparent, and it’s happen-ing more and more,” he said. “Back when Appalachian State beat Michigan, that was the talk of the year, right? Well that’s happening pretty much every week when an FCS team plays an FBS team.

“We’re going to be ready to play, (and) we’re going to be motivated to play.”

The Dukes have what Hol-gorsen sees as a strong bal-ance of talent and funda-mentals that should make Saturday’s game just as tough as ones that are slated later in the schedule.

“They do a good job re-cruiting; they do a good job coaching; they have the best facilities in the FCS – which is going to attract a lot of talent, – (and) they’re in the very tal-ent-rich state of Virginia – and it shows,” he said. “They have good players.”

“It’s going to be a challenge for us coaches and a chal-lenge for our players to get over there and get better on all three sides of the ball and try to make us better in doing it against a good quality foot-ball team.”

One of the hallmarks of West Virginia’s explosive of-fense is the ability of its play-makers to find open space and make defenders miss. Where most teams find trouble mak-ing the first tackle against the Mountaineers, the Dukes’ de-fense may not have as much because of its ability to shed blocks.

“It’s really pretty impressive watching those guys getting to the ball and making tackles. That’s going to be a challenge for us offensively is to sustain blocks,” Holgorsen said.

“You talk about yards-af-ter-catch or yards-after-con-tact, (but) you don’t get those without making tacklers miss or breaking tackles, so I think that’s going to be a challenge for us,” he said. “Those guys play with such effort, and they do a good job of getting off the

blocks and getting to the ball and making tackles.”

On top of winning the game, Holgorsen stressed the impor-tance of the trip in increasing the program’s visibility and re-cruiting prowess in the area.

“It’s important to us to have a presence over there. It’s im-portant to us recruiting-wise, (and) it’s important to 20-some of our kids that are from the East Coast over in that area, so all that makes sense to me,” he said.

One player Holgorsen con-tinues to see positive things-from is redshirt senior J.D. Woods. Holgorsen viewed Woods’ performance in the Marshall game – seven catches, 75 yards and a touch-down – as a sign that his hard work is starting to pay off.

“He’s doing everything right; he brings us a ton of en-ergy,” he said. “His demeanor on the sideline, his demeanor in practice, his demeanor in the weight room (and) even his demeanor in study hall now has changed.

“It’s fun to watch a kid that didn’t do that in the past look at his senior year and say, ‘Oh, I better get my stuff together here because it’s about over for me.’ He’s play-ing well, (and) he’s a guy that we’re obviously going to throw it to.”

Andy Murray’s win caps britain’s golden sports summerLONDON (AP) — First

came the victory in the Tour de France. Then there were the stacks of medals at a daz-zling Olympics at home.

If that weren’t enough to lift the country’s spirits, Brit-ain basked in another mile-stone Tuesday to cap this magical sports summer.

Yes, at long last, after 76 years of wait and frustration, Britain has a men’s Grand Slam tennis champion.

Andy Murray beat Novak Djokovic in five sets in the U.S. Open final, giving Brit-ain yet one more reason to wave the flag again. The feel-good glow began with na-tional celebrations of Queen Elizabeth II’s “Diamond Ju-bilee” of 60 years on the throne and peaked during the last six weeks of Olym-pic and Paralympic fervor.

Murray’s victory – com-pleted while most of Brit-ain was asleep – came just hours after more than 1 mil-lion people lined the streets of London to cheer the na-tion’s Olympians and Para-lympians in a two-hour pa-rade marking the end of the 2012 Games.

“The forecast ... was made yesterday that the great summer of British sport was over, but he’s given us another immense prize to wake up to,” Prime Minister David Cameron said.

After losing in four pre-vious Grand Slam finals, Murray outlasted defending champion Djokovic 7-6 (10), 7-5, 2-6, 3-6, 6-2 after nearly five hours on Monday to be-come the first British man to win a Slam since Fred Perry captured the Wimbledon and the U.S. Championships

in 1936.Finally, the “Fred Perry

curse” has been broken – although until Murray wins Wimbledon, it won’t be fully put to rest.

“Thank God that’s over. Thank God we can let Fred Perry lie easy. Thank God for Andy Murray,” wrote the Guardian newspaper website.

Like Tim Henman be-fore him, Murray had been dogged by the weight of expectations of the Brit-ish public and media and the never-ending questions over when the Grand Slam drought would finally be broken.

“Now they won’t ask me that stupid question any more” read the back page headline Tuesday in Lon-don’s Evening Standard.

What a past few months it has been for Britain in the arena.

Chelsea won the Champi-ons League. Bradley Wiggins became the first British rider to win the Tour de France. Rory McIroy won the PGA Championship by a record eight shots and established himself as golf’s dominant player.

Above all, London hosted a hugely successful Olym-pics and Paralympics that captivated the country. Brit-ain recorded its best Olym-pic showing in 104 years with 29 gold medals (in-cluding Murray in singles) and 65 medals in all. Britain celebrated the close of the Paralympics on Sunday af-ter winning 120 medals, in-cluding 34 gold.

Now, Murray has become the first man to win the U.S.

Open and Olympic gold in the same year.

“I’m absolutely delighted for him,” Cameron said. “It’s a huge achievement. For 76 years Britain has waited for a Grand Slam win in ten-nis and Andy has done it in huge style.”

The victory came on the exact day – Sept. 10 – that Perry won the U.S. title in 1936. It also came in Mur-ray’s fifth Grand Slam final, following in the footsteps of his no-nonsense coach, Ivan Lendl, who lost in his first four Grand Slam finals before going on to win eight major titles.

For years, Murray has been considered just a rung below the “Big Three” of Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal and Djokovic, who had shared 29 of the previ-ous 30 major titles. Now he’s joined the club and Britain is rejoicing.

Nowhere was the impact felt more deeply than in his Scottish hometown of Dun-blane, a cathedral town and site of a mass shooting in 1996. Murray was 8 when a gunman opened fire at his elementary school, killing 16 children and a teacher. He didn’t witness the ac-tual carnage, but hid under a desk in the headmaster’s study.

A noisy crowd of about 80 people packed into the bar at the Dunblane Hotel to watch the U.S. Open fi-nal that ended shortly af-ter 2 a.m. British time. After Djokovic hit a forehand ser-vice return long on match point, the crowd erupted in cheers and chants of “There’s only one Andy

Murray.’”“Andy is Dunblane’s

hero, not just Dunblane, the whole of Scotland and the rest of Britain,” 63-year-old Gavin Noland told reporters at the bar.

Referring to Dunblane’s shooting tragedy, 62-year-old Dave Whitton said: “It’s a town where things have happened, but this brings a moment of joy and happi-ness instead of other things that have happened.”

Murray’s uncle, Neill Er-skine, said he received a text message from Murray thanking the family for their support.

“There are a huge mixture of emotions in the family – pride, relief, excitement,” he said.

Murray’s grandparents, Roy and Shirley Erskine, were among those who stayed up late to watch the match. His grandmother recalled his rambunctious ways as a child.

“He had a temper on him and would always stamp his foot and say, ‘I’ve got to do better, I’ve got to do better.’ But he focused that eventu-ally and used his energy to play tennis,” she said.

Murray did most of his tennis training as a youth in Barcelona but remains fiercely loyal to his Scot-tish roots. Two other fa-mous Scots — actor Sean Connery and Manchester United manager Alex Fergu-son — were among those in the stands cheering him on at Flushing Meadows.

“Now Olympic and U.S. Open champion, Andy truly is a Scottish sporting legend and I’m certain that more

Grand Slam titles will fol-low,” Scottish First Minister Alex Salmond said.

The end of the match came too late for many Brit-ish newspapers, but Mur-ray’s triumph made some late editions.

“History Boy!” blared the tabloid Daily Mirror on the front page. On the sports pages, the Mirror launched a campaign for a Murray knighthood: “Arise Sir Andy: Grand Slam Glory at Last. Oh What a Knight.”

British TV stations camped out early Tuesday at the modest Dunblane ten-nis courts where Murray got his start as a young boy, in-terviewing youngsters who said they were inspired by his triumph.

Murray and Lendl are the two men in the Open era, which began in 1968, to have lost their first four Grand Slam finals. Murray fell to Djokovic in the 2011 Austra-lian Open, and against Fe-derer at the 2008 U.S. Open, 2010 Australian Open and this year’s Wimbledon.

It was Murray’s decisive, straight-sets victory over Fe-derer in the Olympic final in August on Centre Court

at Wimbledon – less than a month after the Wimbledon defeat – that lifted his belief in himself and provided the platform for his Grand Slam success.

“Ever since he won the Olympics he has walked around with a lot more con-fidence,” said Murray’s for-mer coach, Leon Smith. “Af-ter winning yesterday, it’s going to do even more so now.”

Former British player and U.S. Open finalist Greg Rusedski said Murray can only go higher.

“Having won this, he can go on to win many majors and maybe end the year as ... No. 1,” he said.

Murray is ranked No. 4 but is close behind No. 3 Nadal. Djokovic is No. 1 in this week’s rankings, with Federer dropping to No. 2.

“We are all delighted for Andy,” Wimbledon chair-man Philip Brook said. “Winning your first Grand Slam has to be a very special moment in a player’s career, and it was a fantastic perfor-mance in an epic final to cap a truly memorable summer of tennis for him personally, and for British tennis.”

When the West Virginia football team’s depth chart was released toward the end of August, there was one notable absence on it.

In a matter of months, ju-nior wide receiver Ivan McCart-ney went from the Mountaineers’ third-leading receiver in 2011 to a player who was lost in the mix and fighting for playing time when they opened the season against Marshall.

That’s when he had a realization.“It was motivation,” McCartney

said. “No one wants to have their coaches have that perspective of them, so I just had to do some-thing to get out of that mindset.

“I slacked off a little bit, but my job was to get back on track and do anything possible to help the team.

McCartney finished camp strongly, working his way back into rotation and earning play-ing time against Marshall. He only made one catch, but it was a 52-yard strike from senior quar-terback Geno Smith that helped lead the WVU offense to a late touchdown.

That catch was the first time

McCartney, who battled injuries throughout the second half of his sophomore season, had more than 20 yards in a game since he caught four passes for 61 yards against Louisville on Nov. 5.

“I think Ivan was kind of down on himself,” Smith said. “He wants to be a starter, and that’s good be-cause you want guys who want to make plays. I was on the side-lines telling him that when he got in the game and got his number called, he needed to be ready, and he was.”

The 6-foot-2 receiver out of Miramar, Fla., said at times he doubted himself, but he always knew that he would be able to work his way back onto the field.

“In the beginning nobody thought I would be playing this year,” he said. “But I had faith in myself, so I knew I’d be out there doing it once again like I did last year. I just had to fight and push a little harder.

“I had to be an example (for younger teammates). I’m not glad it happened, but I’m glad I learned from my mistakes and I’m moving forward.”

During those tough times, Mc-Cartney turned to his teammates for guidance.

One was a receiver who fought through his fair share of adversity before emerging during spring practice as a potential playmaker – senior wide receiver J.D. Woods.

Woods was there when McCart-ney needed him, providing leader-ship and picking him up when he thought he needed it.

“I’m always in his ear. I know I believe in him, and I know he believes in himself,” Woods said. “Ivan has it all. The main thing for him is to keep it in his head and keep it going. He can be a great player.”

He’s still working to get back into the spot on the rotation where he wants to be but the hard part is over. He’s already started gain-ing the trust of his coaches; now he has to go and make the plays.

Through it all he had no doubts that West Virginia was the place for him. The struggles he went through will help him become the player he wants to be.

“Right now it’s a feeling I’ve never felt before. I’m excited,” McCartney said. “I’m just waiting patiently on my turn, and when it comes, I’m going to take advan-tage of it.”

Times are tough, and they’re only getting tougher.

Need proof? The statewide budget

gap has reached roughly $300 million. In response, Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin has requested a 7.5 percent spending cut for the 2013-14 fiscal year.

This may seem like a drastic adjustment – af-ter all, 7.5 percent of hun-dreds of millions of dollars is a substantial sum. But an important point to keep in mind is that the revised 7.5 percent budget cut is a 2.5 percent increase on a roll-

ing 5 percent cut imple-mented in previous years.

That isn’t to say it’s not a pressing issue; it will affect state agencies across every sector. That includes any entity that receives gov-ernment funding – large public universities, for example.

University officials have estimated a loss of nearly $12 million if the proposed cut goes into effect. A loss so large will have a far-reaching impact on West Virginia University and its in-state peer institu-tions, and may translate to tuition increases, pro-

gram cuts and other neg-ative repercussions for the University.

In arguing against the proposed percentage hike, WVU President James P. Clements introduced an interesting statistic: For ev-ery dollar invested in WVU, the University returns that investment 40 fold, gener-ating revenue on a multi-tude of platforms and im-proving the welfare of thousands with the skills and security a college de-gree can confer.

An investment in WVU is an investment in ground-breaking research, inno-

vative teaching curricula and endless opportu-nity. It’s an investment in the future, too. West Vir-ginia has a college gradu-ation rate of 43.8 percent, which is more than 10 per-cent below the national av-erage. Backpedaling on a commitment to affordable higher education in the Mountain State can only prove to be disastrous in the long term.

Perhaps most impor-tantly, it’s an investment in the nearly 30,000 students who have placed their trust in college in the hope that it will improve their for-

tunes and their lives. It’s an investment in the sopho-more biology student who hopes to become a doctor and provide needed health care in rural areas. It’s an investment in the junior political science student who wants to become a champion for the social is-sues that plague her coun-try. It’s an investment in the freshman who wants to decide his own fate and secure his own future.

It’s more than an invest-ment – it’s a promise.

Budget cuts should not target education

The recent arrest of Gottfrid Svartholm, co-founder of The Pirate Bay, in Cambodia adds more fuel to the fire of the fight against Internet piracy. Svartholm, who disap-peared while facing a jail sentence and hefty fines, was arrested two weeks ago by Cambodian po-lice. He fled to Sweden af-ter legal action was taken against the website he co-founded.

The Pirate Bay has been the center of Internet pi-racy for the last several years. Millions of people around the world down-load terabytes of data ev-ery week from The Pirate Bay alone. By RIAA and

MPAA standards, a sig-nificant portion of con-tent offered on the web-site is deemed illegal to download.

Corporations around the world that generate revenue from content that is downloaded illegally have been made numer-ous pushes to stop piracy in the past year.

Many of these corpora-tions have poured money in support of numerous Internet privacy bills like SOPA, which would signif-icantly limit the availabil-ity of any copyrighted con-tent on the Internet.

The Internet community responded to those actions heavily by contacting gov-ernment officials and get-ting websites like Wiki-pedia to “blackout.” The bills would have damaged the integrity of the Inter-

net and would have taken freedoms away from hon-est Internet users.

For years the battle be-tween corporations and pirates has been a seem-ingly endless loop of taking down sites, arresting site owners and poor attempts at government regulation.

There are better solu-tions to fight piracy and stop those who illegally download. Colleges like West Virginia University that prevent students from accessing torrent web-sites is a step in the right direction.

The best way to find a solution to a problem is to figure out what the prob-lem is and why it is hap-pening. Thus, the best action the corporations could take is to figure out exactly why people down-load things illegally.

The popular HBO series “Game of Thrones” fittingly illustrates the problem and offers an insight into pos-sible solutions. After the series debuted, it per-formed very well, and its success prompted HBO to lock it in for a second sea-son. The problem started when many people around the world, including in the United States, could not access HBO. Within weeks the show became the most pirated television show in history, and even today, thousands are download-ing it illegally.

HBO can blame no one but itself for this. Many people who illegally down-load “Game of Thrones” have stated that they would be more than happy to buy every episode if they had the ability to do it for a reasonable price. Getting

a cable provider and pay-ing for the extra package just to get access to HBO is out of the price range for many, especially peo-ple outside of the U.S.

A simple fix would be to create a season pass to al-low consumers to get epi-sodes live as everyone else does. This would surely re-sult in fewer illegal down-loads and more money for HBO, if they simply re-spond to why people are doing it.

In the piracy world, there are three groups of people. The first group is composed of those who il-legally download and will never purchase the con-tent they download. The second group is those who lack the funds to buy any content and download the content illegally. The fi-nal group includes peo-

ple who are unable to pur-chase products because of restrictions or because the content is unreasonably priced.

The first step that needs to be taken is to sort out the issues with the final group, as the first two won’t pay either way. Simpler means must be created for the us-ers of the Internet to access the content they want at a reasonable price.

Providers must give the consumers more options and not overprice bad con-tent. Only after that should the MPAA and RIAA go af-ter those who refuse to pay any money.

Internet piracy is a huge issue in today’s world; however, business lead-ers are looking at it in the wrong way and are tak-ing advice from the wrong people.

For weeks, many folks from West Virginia University and the Morgantown community have been concentrating on informing students and citi-zens about good sportsman-ship. The challenge is to en-gage the WVU students and community in creating and maintaining a safe environ-ment that promotes positive relationships with the com-munity and our guests.

We want to have visitors to WVU events leave with a positive perception and im-age of our community. A re-cent survey from the NCAA finds that sportsmanship by the fans has gotten worse. It’s pretty sad when the people who have the least invested in a sport engage in inappropri-ate behavior just for the sake of rooting their team on.

We realize that it is just a

few fans who make everyone look bad. A true fan should understand that good sports-manship actually enhances the experience of both play-ing and watching sports. Here’s a quick reminder of some things to keep in mind next time you’re at the big game:

Watch your alcohol intake. Know what you can handle before you start to lose your inhibitions and get unruly. Most displays of bad sports-manship from fans could be eliminated if fans would just drink responsibly. Besides, it’s hard to really appreciate a game if you’re completely tanked.

Respect the opposing team. Use your lung strength to root for your team and not against the other. When the visiting team walks out on to the field, don’t be a cad and boo them. Instead, respect-fully clap for them. Applause is also appropriate when an opposing player is taken out

of the game due to an injury. Finally, while it’s tempting to taunt and heckle an oppos-ing team, be the better per-son and avoid it. It just brings the game down.

Respect your fellow fans. Tickets to college sports games cost big bucks. For many people, they are a splurge, something they buy in the hopes of having a great experience. Don’t ruin it for them by running your mouth the whole game. No-body likes to sit next to the guy who loudly gives his arm-chair perspective about what went wrong with each play and how the coach is a mo-ron. It grates on the nerves. Also, be respectful to fans who are rooting for the op-posing team. Their allegiance to a set of guys wearing dif-ferent uniforms and playing a game does not mark them as arch enemies or make them less human. Don’t give op-posing fans dirty looks or hurl crass insults or items in their

direction.Watch your language. It’s

always amazing what comes out of the mouths of fans at sporting events. It would make the saltiest of sailors blush. While I can under-stand an exasperated word being uttered from time to time, there’s no excuse for a fan’s language to devolve into lurid and filthy talk. Remem-ber, at most sporting events, there are children, so adjust your language accordingly. And besides, if the rules de-mand that the athletes keep their language clean, we should expect that from the fans, too.

Respect the officials. Just as players should respect the officials, so should the fans. We’ve all been to sport-ing events where the refs are booed as soon as they walk out on to the field – before they’ve even made a call! Give the officials the respect they deserve. If it weren’t for them, you wouldn’t be able to enjoy

the game. Sure, they all make bone headed decisions from time to time. But guess what? We do, too. Imagine what it would feel like if every time you made a bad decision at work, some jerks were there telling you to go kill yourself or saying some untrue thing about your family. Not very cool, huh?

When you’re feeling angry at the ref, take a minute to get some perspective on the situ-ation. You may be able to see either the whole field of ac-tion from your perch in the stands or see the replay in slow-motion on the score-board, but the ref is out there at eye level watching the ac-tion happen in the blink of an eye. It’s not an easy job, and they’re doing the best they can.

Support your team, even when it loses. A true fan sticks with their team through good times and bad. It’s a sad sight to see the bleachers empty at a stadium 10 minutes before

a game is over just because the home team is losing. Stick around until the end and root your team off the field.

Respect the High Five Rules of the Game

1. No excessive drinking—intoxicated fans are not al-lowed inside or outside the stadium.

2. No foul or abusive language.

3. No smoking in the seat-ing or concourse areas.

4. No throwing stuff (any-thing) onto the field.

5. No ignoring of the in-structions of Event/Security personnel.

Bad sportsmanship is not a criminal offense, but throw-ing things and hitting people is. Depending on the circum-stances it can be assault and or battery, even destruction of property. Wouldn’t it be sad to ruin your college ca-reer just because the victim’s only crime was wearing the opposing team’s colors?

True Mountaineers are good sports, too

BY JACQUELINE BIGAR BORN TODAY You approach life

with sensitivity, yet you demonstrate the ability to openly accept the many surprises that head down your path. Sometimes you might get angry or en-raged as a result of being left out of plans. If you are single, often you might feel excluded. Know that this feeling stems from your childhood, and try to get through it. If you are attached, you often might pull in tightly to your sweetie, especially when you feel in-secure. Don’t worry — this person un-derstands. You pitch in when your sig-nificant other needs or wants your support. LEO reads you cold.

ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL 19) HHHH You flex and adjust to some-one else’s plans. You might want to understand what is going on with a key person in your life. If you are too abrupt, what happens as a result might not be all that pleasant. A part-ner has very different ideas from you. Tonight: Play the night away.

TAURUS (APRIL 20-MAY 20) HHH Keep a close eye on a certain situa-tion, even if you wish you could do something else or join a friend. To en-sure that you are headed in the right direction, you will need to stay on top of a problem. Tempers flare as the day goes on. Tonight: Order in.

GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 20) HHHH Keep your conversations open and flowing. You might not like what you are hearing. A problem ensues where you least expect it. You do not need to get in the middle of it. Keep your distance, if possible. A boss or older

relative surprises you. Tonight: Chat up a storm.

CANCER (JUNE 21-JULY 22) HHH New beginnings become possible if you make an effort to express your deeper feelings and allow more of the unexpected into your life. Sar-casm marks an interaction. Do you really need to add that touch? To-night: Your efforts count. Reach out for someone.

LEO (JULY 23-AUG. 22) HHHHH You want to understand what is go-ing on behind the scenes. The ele-ment of surprise makes all the dif-ference. New beginnings become possible. Curb your anger rather than saying something you might regret later. Tonight: All smiles.

VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEPT. 22) HHHH You have the ability to make a differ-ence within your immediate circle. You seem to be able to read others through their actions and sense their feelings. Your responsiveness could make all the difference to someone. Tonight: Play it low-key.

LIBRA (SEPT. 23-OCT. 22) HHHH Honor a long-term desire, and find out what you need to do. A meeting points to your relationship within a particular group. You could be sur-prised by an invitation that seems to come from out of nowhere. If you choose to accept, your schedule will have to change. Tonight: Find your friends.

SCORPIO (OCT. 23-NOV. 21) HHH You could find yourself being ob-served by others. You might won-der whether it would serve you to do something different. In some sense, you are offended; on the other hand,

you are flattered. Know what you de-sire and need from a situation. To-night: Into the wee hours.

SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22-DEC. 21) HHHH Use your ability to relate to one person directly. You might want to step back from a control game. The unexpected occurs surrounding a personal matter. A discussion could become quite verbal. Be spontane-ous. Tonight: Be direct with a loved one.

CAPRICORN (DEC. 22-JAN. 19) HHHH Still going along with oth-ers’ plans? If you can’t stand it any-more, make a point to be alone. This period is important for others to ap-preciate how very much you do and offer. Your skills are unique. Tonight: Act like a diva.

AQUARIUS (JAN. 20-FEB. 18) HHH Count on giving more than 100 per-cent, no matter what you are doing. Your efforts to pitch in and help oth-ers might be more appreciated than you think. Do what you want for you, and not for others. You will be much happier as a result. Tonight: Choose a favorite stressbuster.

PISCES (FEB. 19-MARCH 20) HHHHH Your very playful person-ality emerges, which allows greater give-and-take. With humor, you can say much more than usual. People have a more relaxed response when approached in this manner. Use your ability to empathize to sort through an issue. Tonight: Let your hair down!

THE NEW BRUCE IN TOWNWVU

beginning to click at right time

The No. 22 West Virginia men’s soccer team has been the complete pack-age offensively so far this season.

In its three home games, WVU has outscored its op-ponents 8-4. The team has been physical, aggres-sive and ready to make some noise around the country.

In the last game against Oakland, the Mountain-eers could have scored six or seven goals, accord-ing to head coach Mar-lon LeBlanc. They still got four goals, but it was one of those games that opportu-nities were flowing all day for West Virginia.

The scoring chances have been there on a con-stant basis for West Vrginia. Finishing has been a bit troublesome, but through teamwork, West Virginia sees itself above .500 after six games.

It’s been a well-rounded attack thus far, and seven players have scored goals this season.

WVU has won the cor-ner kick battle 35-15 af-ter six games. The Moun-taineers have also won the shots category by 15. The scoring opportunities have been present in each game.

This group has not al-ways put away chances, but the amount of talent and potential the squad has is greater than past years. The sky is the limit if West Vir-ginia puts goals into the net consistently.

Each member of the team is aware of how im-portant it is to capitalize on goals and not giving up goals late in games. In the sport of soccer, one goal could be the difference, even if you out-play your opponent.

With the biggest re-maining game of the sea-son against Akron Oct. 20, WVU will need to set up scoring opportuni-ties and get going from an early start. In the game against Oakland Sunday, sophomore forward Andy Bevin was able to score within the first five min-utes of play.

In that game, West Vir-ginia was able to find the net four times. On the road trip against North Caro-lina, Wake Forest and Penn State, the goalkeeping and solid opposition made it tough for the Mountaineers to score goals.

I n t h e t w o l o s s e s a ga i n s t t h e Demon Deacons and Tar Heels, West Virginia was held scoreless while only giving up one goal.

The game against the Nittany Lions was held to a draw, but the chances were there in all three affairs.

“We were due,” LeBlanc said following the Oak-land game. “It wasn’t be-cause of the lack of creat-ing chances that we didn’t score in the last few games; we had a lot of chances. Our finishing was erratic.”

The most promising sign for this team is the constant balance of guys scoring, setting up each other and being outspo-ken about what the guys should and shouldn’t do. When you watch this team play live, you get the sense that there is a mixed bag of leadership.

“It’s nice to see a well-balanced attack,” LeBlanc said. “I think we have quite a few weap-ons.”

During the next three home games against American University, Florida Atlantic and Iona, expect to see this team cre-ate chances. If the finish-ing is there, enjoy support-ing the Mountaineers with applause after some goals.

Matt Sunday/the daily athenaeuMRedshirt freshman linebacker Isaiah Bruce led the Mountaineers in tackles and scored a defensive touchdown in West Virginia’s 69-34 season opener against Marshall.

By Doug WAlpSportS Writer

There wasn’t an over-whelming sense of antic-ipation surrounding red-shirt freshman linebacker Isaiah Bruce’s Mountain-eer debut heading into West Virginia’s season opener against Marshall Sept. 1.

But this didn’t deter Bruce from leading the entire team in tackles and making headlines with a 43-yard fumble recovery for a touchdown in his first collegiate appearance.

“I envisioned just mak-ing a play,” Bruce said af-ter the Marshall game. “So I guess everything went ac-cording to plan. Lots of in-tensity from the start.”

Bruce’s 16 total tackles in his collegiate debut, which included a stop for a loss

and the aforementioned defensive touchdown, were good enough for the Big 12 Conference Player of the Week honors in college football’s opening week.

The 6-foot-1, 225-pound linebacker from Jackson-ville, Fla., was a four-year starter at Providence High and was also a Flor-ida state champion in the 300-meter hurdles.

“He has great size and athleticism for a line-backer, especially in to-day’s game,” said West Virginia co-defensive co-ordinator Keith Patterson. “He’s able to run 20 or 30 yards and make plays in space.”

In addition to Bruce’s obvious athleticism, sec-ond-year West Virginia head coach Dana Hol-gorsen said that it’s the

redshirt freshman’s intel-ligence that makes him a capable defensive player.

“He’s really a smart kid,” Holgorsen said. “And his conditioning is good. Not everyone looked the same in the fourth quarter as they did in the first quarter, but he looked like he was doing the same stuff con-sistently for four quarters.”

Ironically, one of the things that originally drew Bruce to West Virginia’s football program was that the Mountaineers were employing the 3-3-5 de-fensive scheme under for-mer defensive coordinator Jeff Casteel. It was a sys-tem that Bruce thought he could initially excel.

But Bruce, who was ex-pecting to see at least some playing time right away as a true freshman, was red-shirted in his first year

with the team, much to his disappointment. Part of the problem was his size –Bruce came in as a freshman at least 20 pounds lighter than he is now.

Bruce’s determination never wavered, though. He used last season’s red-shirt for motivation and the offseason to get stron-ger, faster and smarter as a player.

This year, West Virginia has a new scheme and two new co-defensive coordi-nators, and so far the re-sults of the season opener indicate no one has ad-justed to the new style more quickly or effectively than Bruce.

“It’s his work ethic,” Pat-terson said. “The thing I appreciate about Isaiah is every single day he brings the same attitude, the

same effort that it takes to be a great player. He’s not moody, he just studies it. He wants to get better, and it’s all about his attitude.”

Patterson, who is also the Mountaineers’ line-backers’ coach, has spent a lot of one-on-one time with Bruce since taking the job as an assistant under Holgorsen this offseason. Bruce’s steady demeanor will allow him to get con-sistently better every sin-gle week.

“What I told him af-ter the game, as long as you keep being coach-able – doing the things I’m asking you to do – you’ll continue to improve as a player. And he definitely has the right attitude and mind-set to do that,” Pat-terson said.

Legendary act Fishbone takes over 123

Silverback ManageMentCritically-acclaimed group Fishbone is set to play 123 Pleasant Street tonight with support from funk group Downtown Brown.

by hunter homistekassociate a&e editor

For half a century, Fish-bone has blazed a trail of excellence in the music industry with its high-en-ergy, frenzied approach to the genre of American ska.

Now, as part of a na-tionwide tour, Fishbone plans a stop at Morgan-town’s historic venue 123 Pleasant Street tonight at 10 p.m.

Often replicated but never duplicated, Fish-bone has amassed a sig-nificant fan following in its 25-year career thanks to its original and refreshing ap-proaching to the ska genre.

Boasting a live perfor-mance that is widely re-garded as a can’t-miss concert experience, Fish-bone has toured alongside bands such as the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Beastie Boys and The Roots.

With such experience at the top level of the busi-ness, the Fishbone show promises to be a stellar event for attendees.

“Fishbone is one of the most influential and im-portant bands in rock his-tory,” said event promoter Adam Payne. “Twenty-five years later, I’m expecting the same show energy as when they rocked Lola-palooza in ’93.”

To help maintain this success through the 21st century, Fishbone has re-leased a full-length feature documentary entitled “Ev-eryday Sunshine: The Story of Fishbone.”

The documentary, nar-rated by Laurence Fish-burne, earned LA Week-ly’s Critic’s Choice Award at the Los Angeles film festival in 2010 and has been dubbed “effortlessly entertaining” by Variety magazine.

Encore Magazine also hailed the effort as “more than a documentary about rock ‘n’ roll. It’s a docu-mentary about the Amer-ican spirit and one that shows the life of one of its most influential creative forces.”

With such acclaim back-

ing the band, it is not a stretch to suggest this will be one of the biggest shows of the year at 123 Pleasant Street. Fishbone has sustained a distinct career in a tough business the only way one can – by being exceptional.

Also on tonight’s bill is Detroit-based funk/punk band Downtown Brown.

Since its formation in 2001, the group has steadily made a name for itself in the music indus-try through its funky beats and willingness to experi-ment with a wide variety of sounds.

“Take a fat kid who grew up listening to Guns N’ Roses in grade school, dis-covered Bad Religion and Metallica in middle school and in high school became obsessed with Prince and P-Funk,” said Neil P., vo-calist and guitarist in an interview with Punk Globe. “It’s pretty easy to see where our sound comes from.”

Such a summary per-fectly encapsulates Down-town Brown; they are not afraid to mesh styles, and they do so with talent and precision.

With a lineup featuring established veteran groups Fishbone and Downtown Brown, tonight’s show at 123 Pleasant Street prom-ises to display exceptional musicianship and a re-fined, engaging stage show to keep the audience en-tertained from the open-ing chord to the final crash of the cymbals.

For tickets, visit www.showtix4u.com or show up at the door with a crisp $20 and ready to rock.

The show begins at 10 p.m., and concertgoers must be at least 18 years old to attend.

If the history and prom-ise of an explosive perfor-mance is not enough to get you to the show, consider Payne’s warning.

“You don’t want to miss this show, because you may never get a chance to see these legends again.”

metal group As i Lay Dying releases new music video

Preceding the Sept. 25 release of its newest al-bum, “Awakened,” via Metal Blade Records, metal act As I Lay Dying has re-leased a music video for the record’s first single, “A Greater Foundation”.

For any great music video, there are two obvi-ous key components: the music and the video con-

tent itself. “A Greater Founda-

tion” does well for itself on each front, but neither aspect is breathtaking or revolutionary.

First, let us take a listen to the musical content.

This song is the epitome of the metal sound, and it will undoubtedly please fans of the band’s previous work.

Chugging, staccato gui-tars are met with precise and powerful drums as vo-calist Tim Lambesis issues forth his trademarked fero-

cious screaming style. The verses are driving,

blast-beat ridden offer-ings of metal aptitude, and the pace only briefly slows during the chorus to give way to a more melodic ap-proach to the genre.

The song smoothly rides this contrast of styles to the bridge, where it becomes a bit too “emo” for my tastes.

While the music is still perfectly appropriate, this notion rests solely on the vocals of bassist Josh Gil-bert, who provides a break from the screaming by

singing a clean, nasal mel-ody to carry the song.

I do not have a problem with clean singing when it is executed properly within a metal song, but when it is nasal and frail, no thanks.

The song takes this vo-cal style to its conclusion, which results in a disap-pointing finish to an oth-erwise promising track.

Where the visuals are concerned, the music video is quite average.

Set to a graffiti-laden cement backdrop, the video depicts the band,

decked out in traditional metal garb, headbanging, screaming and performing the song in its entirety.

This is par for the course where metal videos are concerned, so do not ex-pect to be blown away here.

Surrounding the band in the video is a rowdy and fired-up crowd who moshes and flails to the music, clearly endorsing the track’s heaviness and tight structure.

“A Greater Founda-tion” is not a terrible song

or video; it is just not spectacular.

As I Lay Dying has fash-ioned a lengthy career in the world of metal with its penchant for brutality, and this song is just another day in the park for the Cal-ifornia natives.

With a relatively stag-nant period for metal un-derway, one can take sol-ace in the fact that As I Lay Dying is working hard to keep our horns happily at attention.

UNDERGROUND SOUND

‘The north’Stars««««

Talking Heads’ front-man David Byrne and An-nie Clark, who is more commonly known as “St. Vincent,” combined tal-ents to produce the new phenomenon of “Love This Giant”.

The album starts off with a deep baritone saxophone in the song “Who,” intro-ducing a key component of the album – the horn section.

This serves as some-thing new to both Byrne and Clark. Byrne’s edge and distinct voice shine throughout the album, to complement Clark’s sweet and powerful voice. Nei-ther voice overpowered the other.

The album merges the two vocalists’ styles while still introducing new mate-rial and ideas despite By-rne’s years in the business.

The lead vocals of each song reflect the writer of the song, with the inspiration of their original music.

In this way the opposite artist only complements the work, and brings his or her own technique to the table for the enjoyment of the listener.

The collaboration and upbeat mood of the al-bum keep the listener en-gaged to the chemistry of the two artists, and this cre-ates a redeeming listening experience.

Both artists have had experiences collaborat-ing with other musicians – Byrne with Brian Eno and Clark with Sufjan Stevens and Polyphonic Spree – but this might be the begin-ning of a duo with horns and reeds, refreshing their styles and bringing new el-ements to the studio.

While the album as a whole is phenomenally crafted, I particularly rec-ommended the tracks “Who,” “Dinner for Two” and “The One Who Broke Your Heart.”

—nbs

The “stars” have aligned. Canadian indie rock quin-

tet Stars has released its sixth album, “The North,” which is one of the most unique and infectious albums of their career.

Sticking to the signature dreamy vocal collaboration between frontman Torquil Campbell and singer/gui-tarist Amy Millian, the al-bum immediately takes off with “The Theory of Relativ-ity,” exuding an electronic and airy effervescence atyp-ical from their usual sound.

Although this is an aes-thetically matured album, Stars has long offered nar-ratives of teenage romance in their lyrics. Rather than straying too far from this topical center, it seems they have chosen to develop and simply embrace the content.

Longtime fans will ap-preciate the track “Hold On When You Get Love and Let Go When You Give It,” which stands as the strongest offer-ing of the group’s traditional

sound.Also of note is “Through

the Mines,” where soft guitar strumming meets perfectly rhythmic drumming to cre-ate a pleasant, lush sonic experience.

“Do You Want to Die To-gether?” takes a different route at the center of the al-bum. Starting with roman-tic banter, the track pulls a 180-degree turn into a loud reverberation that tempo-rarily transforms the tempo and energizes the listener.

Soft electronics are sprin-kled throughout the al-bum, which results in the short-but-sweet tracks like “The Loose Ends Will Make Knots” and beautifully com-posed piano-driven “The 400.”

Fans who miss the sounds of “Set Yourself on Fire” or find pleasure in a mesh of Death Cab for Cutie meets Postal Service will find a per-fect place for this album in their fall collection.

Dylan’s ‘Tempest’ has a taste of everything

Bob Dylan’s recording career has been long, suc-cessful and hasn’t seen much downtime.

With more than 50 years experience, Dylan has made his career strong by writing solid songs. He has never been known as a powerful singer, nor has he been labeled a master of the guitar. In fact, he prob-ably ranks with Johnny Cash as one of the most talented mediocre musi-cians turned legend.

But Dylan fans don’t lis-ten for complexity or an ar-ray of vocal range. They lis-ten for the truth and depth within his songs.

When Dylan began his career, rock’n’roll was in its early stages and was taking the world by storm. While parents of the generation despised the provocative new genre of music, most of the youth at the time embraced it with open arms and dancing feet.

Dylan, on the other hand, wanted to do more with his music.

“ The thing about rock’n’roll is that – for me anyway – it wasn’t enough … There were great catch phrases and driving-force rhythms, but the songs weren’t serious or didn’t reflect life in a realistic way. I knew that when I got into folk music, it was more of a serious type of thing,” Dylan said in “Bio-graph,” a greatest hits col-lection released in 1985.

His folk roots are still heard, but his sound is un-mistakably rock-n-roll.

Dylan’s 35th studio al-bum, titled “Tempest,” brings everything Dylan fans expect – a little bit of everything.

The opening track, “Duquesne Whistle,” was co-written by longtime Grateful Dead songwriter Bob Hunter and begins the album with an oldie feel. It’s not the best song on the album, but it’s not the worst.

Today’s generation should listen to this al-bum with an open mind. If you are not familiar with Dylan’s style, it may not be appealing. It’s gritty, and the style is that of the old-ies and early sixties.

But, for me, becoming a Dylan fan was similar to developing a taste for good beer. The first sip was hard to stomach, but once I be-gan to appreciate the won-ders of it, life has never

been the same.“Tempest” definitely

carries on with the sound that is his own.

The title track is nearly 14 minutes long and doesn’t have a chorus. It tells the story of the Ti-tanic through the style of an Irish folk song.

My personal favorite on the album is “Narrow Way.” The tune reminds me of the Traveling Will-bury’s, the former super-group consisting of Dylan, George Harrison, Jeff Lynne, Roy Orbison and Tom Petty.

While this album is not even close to being my fa-voite collection of Dylan songs, it is still worth own-ing and appreciating.

His 71-year-old voice sounds tired, but he deliv-ers the music Dylan fans expect.

NEW YORK (AP) — While its rivals covered the solemn commemoration of the first plane striking the World Trade Center on Tuesday, NBC’s “Today” show aired Kardashian family matriarch Kris Jenner talking about her breast augmentation.

It was an embarrass-ing moment for the once-dominant morning show, now often beaten by ABC’s “Good Morning America” in the ratings, and showed the continued delicacy of Sept. 11 memories for television.

Even “Good Morning America,” which had Jessica Simpson as a guest host in its second hour on Tuesday, cut away from its usual pop culture-oriented lineup late in its show to air ceremonies at 8:48 a.m. EDT, the exact moment 11 years ago when the first plane hit the World Trade Center. The “CBS This Morning” show, CNN, Fox News Channel and MSNBC all covered the moment, too.

NBC pointed out that “To-day” had a lengthy interview

with a World Trade Center survivor earlier in its show and another segment talking about memories of the event.

While “Today” covered the annual moment of si-lence last year for the 10th anniversary, it had not in a few of the previous years, spokeswoman Megan Kopf said.

The omission would likely have been less noticeable if NBC hadn’t been airing a segment with reality tele-vision’s most frequently-seen family instead, leading to some ridicule on social media.

The “Today” show did in-sert coverage of the moment into the program’s later West Coast feed.

“We pause now to re-member the moment when the first plane hit the World Trade Center,” ABC’s George Stephanopoulos said as the screen showed the ceremony taking place at ground zero.

The network then switched abruptly to an in-terview with actor Richard

Gere, who tried to smooth the segue by saying: “It is hard not to get caught up. That moment seems so fresh.”

CBS concentrated pri-marily on the White House, where President Barack Obama and first lady Mi-chelle Obama came out on the lawn to observe a mo-ment of silence at 8:48. Fox News aired a split screen of the Obamas and the World Trade Center ceremony.

MSNBC, as has been its recent tradition, aired more than an hour of NBC News’ coverage of the Sept. 11 at-tacks as it happened that day.

All of New York City’s local broadcast affiliates took sev-eral hours out of their usual morning programming to air the annual recitation of names of people killed at the World Trade Center. It was thought that after the 10th anniversary that annual cer-emony would no longer be shown on local TV, but it’s an important event for families of the victims.
