Now she hopes to rein-state UCF as one of thetop intercollegiate debateteams in the country atthis weekendrsquos invitation-al named in honor of JeffButler who was one of theschoolrsquos first debate
leadersButler who is now an
associate professor in theNSC is glad that thedebate program has beenbrought back
ldquoUCF was once nation-ally prominent in compet-itive debaterdquo Butler saidldquoReinstating a prominentdebate program providesinvaluable opportunitiesto our students the uni-versity and the communi-tyrdquo
Butler formed the teamin 1970 when UCF was stillknown as Florida Techno-logical University UCFfaced off against schoolssuch as Harvard Dart-mouth Cornell Oxford
and Cambridge The teamalso hosted the SovietNational Debate Team atthe height of the Cold Warera
The team won count-less awards and madeappearances in severalchampionships at thenational level in additionto being ranked No 1 in thestate of Florida for fiveyears in a row
This weekendrsquos compe-tition will consist of sever-al rounds spread out overthe two-day period fol-lowed by an awards cere-mony Students will com-pete in a two-on-twopolicy debate in front of apanel of judges
Competitors will bedivided into three levels ofskill open junior varsityand novice
There will be a total ofeight speeches per roundas well as a cross-examina-tion round The four con-structive speeches focuson the initial building of ateamrsquos case dependentupon their negative oraffirmative stance Inbetween the constructivespeeches is a cross-exami-nation round where teamshave the opportunity toquestion their opponentson their stance
The last four speechesare called the rebuttalspeeches that focus on
which team can upholdtheir case with thestrongest argument
Junior molecular biolo-gy and microbiologymajor Christina Vitolo andfreshman political sciencemajor Emily Johns will berepresenting UCF in thejunior varsity category
Johns has been activelycompeting in debates forseven years in the Nation-al Christian Forensics andCommunications Associa-tion an organization thatgoverns home schooldebate and was thrilled todiscover that UCF hadrevived its team
ldquoI love the competi-tionrdquo said Johns who con-
siders herself to be a verycompetitive person ldquoItrsquosacademic itrsquos keeping usinvolved and up-to-dateon current events Itrsquos afine art that you can pur-sue to challenge yourselfItrsquos a lot of funrdquo

ldquoStudents often avoidtaking advantage of serv-ices due to stigma espe-cially around emotionalhealth issuesrdquo Mas-troianni said
The Wellness Centeroffers stress-manage-ment services that manystudents may not beaware of according toMastroianni It offersnutrition and fitnesseducation includingcooking classes as wellas programs to enhancesexual wellness
The UCF CounselingCenter offers workshopsto help students copewith stress and otheremotional health issuesThe Real Project is also apart of the current cam-pus health options and iscentered on addictionhelp
Mastroianni said thatmore can be done aboutpromoting better sleep
patterns decreasing risktaking and helping stu-dents express emotionseffectively
In addition he saidstudents continue tostruggle in findinghealthy meal optionsthat are affordablethough there are severalhealthy eating options oncampus
Freshman Josh Gar-ber an engineeringmajor said he is contentwith his options
ldquoTherersquos really every-thing I could ask forrdquoGarber said
He added that thoughBurger King isnrsquot usuallyamong his choices hedoesnrsquot think it would betoo hard to find some-thing moderately healthyas many fast food restau-rants are providinghealthier options
Instead of using theCounseling Center tocope with stress Garberturns to a different facili-ty
ldquoWhen Irsquom stressed
out I take advantage ofthe Fitness Centerrdquo Gar-ber said
Biology majorMichelle Ingman prefersSubway as her mainchoice of campus restau-rant
She said she doesnrsquotcurrently take advan-tage of the emotionalhealth services on cam-pus but has heard a lotabout the CounselingCenter and how wel-coming it is
Dr J Robert Wiragdirector of UCF HealthServices said he consid-ers Healthy Knights 2020to be an effort that willcontinue through intothe future
ldquoWhen we reach 2020we expect to look backand say lsquoWhat a power-ful demonstrated impactwe have had on helpingpromote the HealthyPeople 2020 goalsrsquo rdquoWirag said
He said the HealthyKnights 2020 website tobe a ldquoone-stop point of
accessrdquo to information abouthealth programs and servic-es that will change frequent-ly as new informationbecomes available

The softball team has toset its standards high in thebeginning of its tenth sea-son
Thatrsquos what head coachRenee Luers-Gillispie saidbefore the Knights begintheir season on Friday inLos Angeles against UtahState and play against thedefending national cham-pion UCLA on Saturdaynight
Standards couldnrsquot getany higher
ldquoI think you have to facethe tougher teams early onto see what yoursquore made ofand that really does giveyou a chance to prepare forconference [play] and tous conference is every-thingrdquo Gillispie said
UCF went 36-23 lastseason beating top-rankedprograms Nebraska andAlabama and were 16-7 inConference USA TheKnights lost to East Caroli-na in the C-USA Champi-onship but still played inthe NCAA Tournament
ldquoWersquore back in the samemode we were in last yearrdquoGillispie said ldquoI have the
same fears the same con-cerns that we had last yearand you wonrsquot know untilyou play that first gamewhere exactly yoursquore goingto berdquo
Throughout the 10years that the softball teamhas been a varsity programGillispie has been the headcoach and the Knightshave come a long way
ldquoI think now that wersquovekind of set the stage we areexpected to do that everyyearrdquo Gillispie said
Gillispie said that theteam has proved that theirsuccesses havenrsquot beenflukes
ldquoOverall nationally Ithink wersquore being recog-nized for being a teamthatrsquos here nowrdquo Gillispiesaid
The Knightsrsquo top pitch-er last year Ashleigh Colegraduated after going 24-14The Knights are hopingthat pitchers Diana Rojasand Ashley Schmitt areable to help carry the teamto the NCAA Tournamentin Colersquos absence Rojashad some pitching experi-ence last season going 2-2while Schmitt went 2-1

Haley Douglas roundsup the pitching staff Dou-glas the only freshman onthe team is from Californiaand will have her entirefamily in the stands at thisweekendrsquos tournament
The rest of the Knightsare practicing two posi-tions each
ldquoWe are fightingthrough a few injuries earlyon which is toughrdquo
Gillispie said ldquoThatrsquos whywe have so many playersplaying so many differentpositions In case we dohave something go downwe have a backup in everypositionrdquo
Returning star TiffanyLane has been practicing atshortstop and in the out-field Lane made the All-C-USA First Team last sea-son and is on theAll-C-USA PreseasonTeam
Natalie Land whojoined Lane on the C-USAFirst Team will be playingsecond base and shortstopLand also made the ESPN

ldquoAbby is a solid player Iwish I had nine of herrdquoGillispie said ldquoShersquos whatyou consider our trueleaderrdquo
Should a player getinjured Gillispie can rotatethe infield to fill positions
Offensively Gillispiesaid the Knights should beOK The Knights beatteams several times in thefall by 14 or 15 runs
ldquoOur fall was probablythe best fall offensive yearwersquove hadrdquo Gillispie saidldquoWe hadnrsquot had that in thepast we hadnrsquot had thatkind of offensive strengthrdquo
After a junior-collegeintensive fall season inwhich the Knights rolled tomultiple big wins the pres-sure starts early at thisweekendrsquos Stacy WinsbergMemorial Tournament
ldquoNow is the time to seewhen theyrsquore in that pres-sured situationrdquo Gillispiesaid ldquoWe always joke thatitrsquos not pressure itrsquos oppor-tunity When they havethat opportunity to reallyshine at the plate are theygoing to be able to do itrdquo

Recording artist and songwriter Joshua Radinbrought an eclectic performance to the Plaza Theatrein downtown Orlando on Feb 7 entertaining an eagercrowd of college and middle-aged fans
Radin performed a few tracks from his newestalbum released last September The Rock and the Tidebut primarily played songs such as ldquoCloserrdquo and ldquoIrsquodRather Be With Yourdquo from his first two albums
During the upbeat songs Radin encouraged thecrowd to stand up clap and sing along with his musicHe furthered this sense of performer-to-crowd intima-cy by providing emotional explanations for many ofhis songs
ldquoI love these venues that are at a small theatrebecause itrsquos so personalrdquo said Camila Ramon a stu-dent from Miami ldquoThe people out there are all aboutlooks and commercial stuff and hersquos [Radin] just truetalentrdquo
Bryan Young a sophomore at Winter Park HighSchool also enjoys Radinrsquos ability to emotionally cap-tivate his fans
ldquoAbout a year and a half ago I got pretty upsetbecause of a girl found Radin on YouTube and Irsquovebeen listening to him ever sincerdquo Young said ldquoWhenhe was playing I was in awe I enjoyed every secondof itrdquo
Radinrsquos commercial success began in 2004 whenhis song ldquoWinterrdquo was featured in an episode of the hittelevision series Scrubs He has since released threealbums and completed several tours
Radinrsquos set list varied from calm solo-acousticsongs to rock-style pieces that ended in fast movingimprovisations with the accompaniment of a fullband
Some of Radinrsquos loyal fans were not pleased to hearhim stray from his simple acoustic roots
Rich Hibner from Gainesville who has seen Radinin concert four times in the past six years voiced hisdiscontent with the new music
ldquoIrsquom not really enthusiastic about his shift into rockrsquonrsquo rollrdquo Hibner said ldquoI think his strength is that he cancreate powerful music with just his guitarrdquo
When interviewed Radin spoke candidly about theresponse of the Orlando crowd to his music
ldquoItrsquos always nice to look a standing ovation in thefacerdquo Radin said speaking of the audiencersquos encore
Radin said his musical success has been a slowclimb but worth it
ldquoItrsquos been a slow and steady buildrdquo Radin saidldquoEvery time you return to a town you hope a few morepeople will show up Thatrsquos how 30-year careers aremaderdquo

There are often timeswhen men strike out withtheir woman for missingan anniversary or maybeeven a birthday
Valentinersquos Day how-ever is everywhereThere is no way to missit no way to forget thedate and no excuse fordoing nothing
Unless the girl in yourlife despises the ldquoHall-mark-maderdquo day sheshould expect the guy toremember
Herersquos the thing menValentinersquos Day is yourticket to get corny Not alot of effort has to be putinto this day compared tosay an anniversary
The big teddy bear theflowers the chocolate areall acceptable especiallywith a new relationship
Extra importance mustbe paid however to thedelivery which I willexplain toward the endCheap corny gifts arefine but if you just handit to your lady with aldquohere you gordquo it comesacross as pure lazinesswhich you are of coursetrying to mask
Those of you guyswho are single but have aspecial Valentine in mindshould step up the cute-
ness factor Ask her out tosomething cute like iceskating or dinner at a nicerestaurant followed by anice walk Make it agroup thing if itrsquos morecomfortable but makesure you spend most ofthe time getting to knowher
A recent article forRedbook magazine byAaron Traister empha-sizes ldquoThe Real ReasonGuys Hate ValentinersquosDayrdquo In it he says menldquotolerate it because[women] seem to havesome unexplained affec-tion for itrdquo He adds thatthe holiday is ldquodesignedto make men feel likeinadequate insensitivefailuresrdquo
You should only feelthat way when compar-ing yourself to someoneelse when you should befocused on how she feelsabout you
Evan a business majorsaid Valentinersquos Dayldquoshould not be as big aholiday as it isrdquo but stillplans to do something onthe special day He saiddinner and flowers is usu-ally the way he goes onValentinersquos Day
His girlfriend of fourmonths Megan a busi-ness major mdash seemedequally as unexcitedabout the day
On Feb 6 they stillhad no plans but saidthey will probably plansomething a few daysbefore She agreed that anice dinner is usually theway to go
Most of you guys goout to dinner with yourspecial lady on regulardays Why not on Valen-tinersquos Day
And if you are on abudget why not cook herdinner This is somethingRobert Ponsonby amechanical engineeringmajor plans to do in thefuture I caught up withhim and his friends to seewhat single UCF guysthink of this holiday
Ponsonby has no planson choosing a Valentinethis year but said whenhe does he will be sure tomake an effort
ldquoIf itrsquos important to heritrsquos important to merdquo Pon-sonby said
As the seemingly lessexcited of the bunch TJLeach a mechanical engi-neering major had a sur-prisingly good take on it bysaying ldquoa long walk on thebeachrdquo will be his style
Clicheacute Sure But thatwill be the furthest thingfrom that womanrsquos mindwhen yoursquore walking handin hand with the sand inyour toes
As I mentioned itrsquos all inthe delivery When yoursquorehanding her a corny teddybear and typical flowershold her by the hand lookher in the eyes and tell hereverything that is goodabout ldquousrdquo
You donrsquot have to havean explanation for why yougave her a white gorillaholding a box of chocolatesjust let her know that shedeserves everythingincluding you Let herknow that her gift for theday and the rest of yourrelationship is your dedica-tion to her
If she is working duringValentinersquos Day send flow-ers to her job You can savemoney on delivery bydoing it yourself and mak-ing sure she doesnrsquot see youor simply handing it to herBuy a bunch from Publixand arrange it yourself Itrsquosless expensive and showsher you tried
Now ladies do not getupset with him for never
doing anything romantic ifyou have not reciprocatedthe sentiment
When I asked the guyswhat they would like inreturn (keeping it as cleanas possible) Leach said awoman to make him dinnerwould be a good sentimentespecially considering thathe would do it for them
Ponsonby preferred alaid back relaxing daytogether with his Valentine
At least one of theseseem doable right ladiesValentinersquos Day need not bea hassle It can be enjoyablefor both as long as youmake it a day of love likeany other with a specialtwist
Happy Valentinersquos DayKnights

f we told you to imaginea place where heroinaddicts can shoot up
openly without any fear ofbeing arrested yoursquod proba-bly twerk your head and askus what wersquore on
Oddly enough such aplace exists in VancouverBritish Columbia
Insite is a clinic that pro-vides addicts with free nee-dles in an effort to stop thespread of HIV Seventy-fivepercent of those who usethe facility change theirinjection behavior for thebetter
Itrsquos been successful thusfar and we would like to seesomething similar imple-mented here in the States
The operation started in2003 in one of the areas ofCanada where AIDS wasspreading most rapidly Thegoal was simple provide theusers with sterile equip-ment and supervision so asto reduce the spread of HIVand reduce deaths fromoverdoses
There are 12 stationswhere users sit in front of awell-lit mirror while theyinject themselves Herethey will find all the materi-als needed for injectionHowever Insite does nothelp the users obtain any
drugs everyone who walksthrough the front doorsalready has drugs on themand nearly all of them areseasoned drug users
Nurses and other trainedmedical personnel are read-ily available to provideassistance in shooting up orto rush to provide emer-gency medical aid in case ofoverdose
Although Insite mayfacilitate drug use it in noway promotes it Locatedupstairs is Onsite an addic-tion treatment facilitywhere many users often endup going for help
Nothing like this has everbeen done in America Theclosest wersquove had are pro-grams that hand out freesterile needles to drugusers In New York thisprogram resulted in reduc-ing HIV infection from 4 to1 for every 100 drug users
In 2009 a three-yearstudy started in whichadults in the District ofColumbia and the Bronx areregularly tested for AIDSand then promptly treated iffound to have the virus Thetreatment has also beenshown to reduce the rate ofspreading the infection
Insite also has a verysimilar ldquotest and treatrdquo poli-
cy thatrsquos been very effectiveThose who take the anti-retroviral used to treatAIDS have been found to be90 percent less infective
All these practices aretruly good things and weneed to make communitiesmore aware of this deadlyhighly contagious diseaseItrsquos not enough to hand outpamphlets or broadcastpublic service announce-ments we need to help peo-ple help themselves
Drug users on the streetdonrsquot have the means toobtain clean supplies ontheir own because they areaddicted and theyrsquoll do any-thing to get a fix Whatrsquosworse is that dealers willoften sell used needlesclaiming theyrsquore sterile soitrsquos nearly impossible toknow what to trust
We donrsquot want to fueladdiction among drugusers We want to see therate of HIV infections low-ered across the country andwe believe the way to dothis is to provide supervisedinjection clinics such asInsite
Insite has had its legaltroubles and fair share ofpublic outrage but popularopinion can be sacrificed ifit means saving lives

UCFrsquos campus needsto quit mdash cold turkey
The ban on smokingshould extend to the side-walks crossways andcourtyards Tobaccoshouldnrsquot be allowed any-where at UCF
The current policyallows people to smokeanywhere outside as longas they arenrsquot within 15feet of an entrance I donrsquotbelieve this is enough
Irsquom fed up with having to hold mybreath as a smoker puffs out deadlytoxins that linger in my nose longafter theyrsquore gone Itrsquos a daily annoy-ance that I and plenty of other stu-dents must deal with while walkingto and from class With so many anti-smoking campaigns nationwide Idonrsquot think a ban such as this wouldbe inconceivable
Many campuses have already pro-hibited smoking indoors and out-doors No colleges or universities inArkansas and Pennsylvania allowanyone to smoke anywhere on cam-pus Educationrsquos new attitude towardsmoking on campus comes from a setof guidelines published by the Ameri-can College Health Association in2009 that all tobacco use is a ldquosignifi-cant health hazardrdquo
If only through force of inconven-ience it prevents smokers from get-ting their deadly fix near other peo-ple This protects non-smokerstraveling on campus from unwillinglyinhaling secondhand smoke Accord-ing to wwwcancerorg secondhandsmoke has more cancer-causingagents than the smoke inhaled by theperson dragging on the cigarette
Yes I do have a reason to bepissed when yoursquore smoking near tome Yoursquore killing me mdash literally Buteven if ldquoNo Smokingrdquo was chiseledinto every brick on every building atUCF I donrsquot think that would beenough This is an effort that needs tobe supported and enforced by the
communityEnforcers tend to be
slim on the university andcollege campuses thatclaim to be smoke-freeaccording to an articlerecently published onwwwInsideHigher-Edcom Smoking still hap-pens on these campusesbecause the motivation toquit isnrsquot there
Guidelines by theACHA seem to give a clear outline ofhow to implement a smoke-free sys-tem but they still donrsquot tell of a fool-hardy way to protect miles of opencampus from the people who aregoing to break these rules anyway
While a 100 percent campus-wideban on smoking would be ideal itrsquosproblematic Smoking isnrsquot illegal andwould require those who cannot kickthe habit to leave campus wheneverthey get the urge Thatrsquos why many ofthese campuses have created desig-nated smoking areas
Having these designated areaswould encourage an effort to elimi-nate tobacco on campus It wouldgive smokers a break and non-smok-ers a breather It would mean acleaner campus where cigarettebutts donrsquot litter the ground outsideIt would mean less harassment forsmokers about their habit As a non-smoker I wouldnrsquot mind walking afew more blocks in order to avoidone of these areas
The ACHA sets high standardsbut I believe our campus can meetthem with enough support Our uni-versity promotes healthy lifestylesand this ban on tobacco should beevidence of that rather than beingseen as a punishment
Should our campus quit coldturkey it would promote healthierlifestyles and cleaner environmentsfor students faculty and visitors Thismethod has been known to increasethe percentage of non-smokers incampus communities

NATE BEELER THE WASHINGTON EXAMINER
So the other day I was -surfing the Web trying todetermine what Inceptionwas really about and I wasmind-blown to notice thatLeorsquos partner is played byJoseph Gordon-Levitt thekid from Angels in the Out-field
Then upon furtherinvestigation I was linkedto his other movies such as(500) Days of Summerdirected by Marc Webb who as itturns out is the same director in chargeof re-booting the Spider-Man film fran-chise Did you know the new Spider-Man is going to be played by that guyfrom The Social Network Not MarkZuckerberg but his roommate
Anyway my point is this I wentfrom Inception to Joseph Gordon-Levitt to Angels in the Outfield back toJoseph Gordon-Levitt to (500) Days ofSummer to Marc Webb to Spider-Manto Andrew Garfield to The Social Net-work all in about a matter of 10 min-utes Quick extremely simple and (forthe most part) reliable information
Those of you who have never heardof Wikipedia probably now think Irsquominsane
But if yoursquore one of the almost-300million daily Wikipedia viewers youmay be laughing quietly to yourself asIrsquom sure yoursquove had episodes of theseldquoWiki-tripsrdquo very similar to the one Ijust described
Yet aside from useless trivialmovie facts Wikipedia is also chock-full of millions of informative articleswhether itrsquos programming languagetax accounting or cognitive scienceThink about any subject and therersquosmost likely a Wikipedia page for it
This is exactly what co-foundersJimmy Wales and Larry Sanger had inmind when they decided to launch theonline encyclopedia in 2001 Theywanted to create an information baseso fast and so simple that you couldhave access to anything you desirewith just the click of a mouse
Obviously the two of them couldnrsquotwrite and update the more than 3 mil-lion articles by themselves so they setup their website in a way that anybodycan edit any particular page
Now this is where it gets messy On one hand you have the in-depth
insights of anyone in the world on anygiven subject constituting well-round-ed articles that tell both sides of the
story On the other hand you
have Wiki ldquovandalsrdquo whowill virtually tear apart arti-cles writing falsehoods andother totally irrelevant infor-mation just because theycan
Although the site hasplenty of editor-experts whofact-check additions to arti-cles and duly delete inap-propriate ones this flaw in
Wikipediarsquos system seriously restrictsthe site from being viewed as a legiti-mate academic reference tool
Now however Wikipedia is lookingto improve its role and usefulness inacademic settings especially withincolleges and universities
But should a site that is so inclinedtoward bias and misinformation everbe taken seriously
Not yet But eventually it very wellcould be
The way I look at it Wikipedia is afantastic starting source partiallybecause it provides links to othersources Like I mentioned itrsquos incredi-bly quick and easy to gather the infor-mation yoursquore looking for
But as with any source you need totake it with a grain of salt
As they say donrsquot believe every-thing you read Yoursquore not just going togo read one book at the library and callit research You need backup sourcesto confirm what yoursquore reading is true
The same goes for Wikipedia Ifyou find a piece of information youneed great Now go look for anothersource to back it up If yoursquoreresearching US history and it readsldquoThe first president of the UnitedStates was Eminemrdquo mdash itrsquos funny butdefinitely isnrsquot true
The site is also looking for otherways to increase its legitimacy as anacademic source such as having uni-versity professors ldquoflagrdquo certain articlesthat they think are appropriate or notappropriate for use While this solutionis far from perfect itrsquos a solid start
As of now I feel that Wikipedia hasa long way to go before it can be citedindependently in research
Even so when used correctly if youactually analyze and think criticallyabout the information being present-ed the site has some tremendouspotential and is a fine startingresource for whatever informationyou may wish to pursue
Wikipedia not readyfor the classroom yet

Now she hopes to rein-state UCF as one of thetop intercollegiate debateteams in the country atthis weekendrsquos invitation-al named in honor of JeffButler who was one of theschoolrsquos first debate
leadersButler who is now an
associate professor in theNSC is glad that thedebate program has beenbrought back
ldquoUCF was once nation-ally prominent in compet-itive debaterdquo Butler saidldquoReinstating a prominentdebate program providesinvaluable opportunitiesto our students the uni-versity and the communi-tyrdquo
Butler formed the teamin 1970 when UCF was stillknown as Florida Techno-logical University UCFfaced off against schoolssuch as Harvard Dart-mouth Cornell Oxford
and Cambridge The teamalso hosted the SovietNational Debate Team atthe height of the Cold Warera
The team won count-less awards and madeappearances in severalchampionships at thenational level in additionto being ranked No 1 in thestate of Florida for fiveyears in a row
This weekendrsquos compe-tition will consist of sever-al rounds spread out overthe two-day period fol-lowed by an awards cere-mony Students will com-pete in a two-on-twopolicy debate in front of apanel of judges
Competitors will bedivided into three levels ofskill open junior varsityand novice
There will be a total ofeight speeches per roundas well as a cross-examina-tion round The four con-structive speeches focuson the initial building of ateamrsquos case dependentupon their negative oraffirmative stance Inbetween the constructivespeeches is a cross-exami-nation round where teamshave the opportunity toquestion their opponentson their stance
The last four speechesare called the rebuttalspeeches that focus on
which team can upholdtheir case with thestrongest argument
Junior molecular biolo-gy and microbiologymajor Christina Vitolo andfreshman political sciencemajor Emily Johns will berepresenting UCF in thejunior varsity category
Johns has been activelycompeting in debates forseven years in the Nation-al Christian Forensics andCommunications Associa-tion an organization thatgoverns home schooldebate and was thrilled todiscover that UCF hadrevived its team
ldquoI love the competi-tionrdquo said Johns who con-
siders herself to be a verycompetitive person ldquoItrsquosacademic itrsquos keeping usinvolved and up-to-dateon current events Itrsquos afine art that you can pur-sue to challenge yourselfItrsquos a lot of funrdquo

ldquoStudents often avoidtaking advantage of serv-ices due to stigma espe-cially around emotionalhealth issuesrdquo Mas-troianni said
The Wellness Centeroffers stress-manage-ment services that manystudents may not beaware of according toMastroianni It offersnutrition and fitnesseducation includingcooking classes as wellas programs to enhancesexual wellness
The UCF CounselingCenter offers workshopsto help students copewith stress and otheremotional health issuesThe Real Project is also apart of the current cam-pus health options and iscentered on addictionhelp
Mastroianni said thatmore can be done aboutpromoting better sleep
patterns decreasing risktaking and helping stu-dents express emotionseffectively
In addition he saidstudents continue tostruggle in findinghealthy meal optionsthat are affordablethough there are severalhealthy eating options oncampus
Freshman Josh Gar-ber an engineeringmajor said he is contentwith his options
ldquoTherersquos really every-thing I could ask forrdquoGarber said
He added that thoughBurger King isnrsquot usuallyamong his choices hedoesnrsquot think it would betoo hard to find some-thing moderately healthyas many fast food restau-rants are providinghealthier options
Instead of using theCounseling Center tocope with stress Garberturns to a different facili-ty
ldquoWhen Irsquom stressed
out I take advantage ofthe Fitness Centerrdquo Gar-ber said
Biology majorMichelle Ingman prefersSubway as her mainchoice of campus restau-rant
She said she doesnrsquotcurrently take advan-tage of the emotionalhealth services on cam-pus but has heard a lotabout the CounselingCenter and how wel-coming it is
Dr J Robert Wiragdirector of UCF HealthServices said he consid-ers Healthy Knights 2020to be an effort that willcontinue through intothe future
ldquoWhen we reach 2020we expect to look backand say lsquoWhat a power-ful demonstrated impactwe have had on helpingpromote the HealthyPeople 2020 goalsrsquo rdquoWirag said
He said the HealthyKnights 2020 website tobe a ldquoone-stop point of
accessrdquo to information abouthealth programs and servic-es that will change frequent-ly as new informationbecomes available
ldquoWe are very excitedabout this Campus HealthInitiativerdquo Wirag said

NOT SO SUPER FANS WITH-OUT SUPER BOWL SEATS SUE
DALLAS mdash Football fans have filed alawsuit accusing the NFL the DallasCowboys and team owner Jerry Jonesof deceiving hundreds of people whobought Super Bowl tickets and had noseats or got seats they felt wereinadequate
The federal lawsuit filed Tuesday inDallas alleges breach of contract fraudand deceptive sales practices
Spokesmen for the Cowboys and theNFL had no comment
The NFL had announced hours beforethe game that about 1250 temporaryseats were deemed unsafe and theleague scrambled to find new seats forabout 850 people The remaining 400were forced to watch the game on TVmonitors or from standing-room-onlyareas
The lawsuit alleges that Cowboysfans who paid $100000 per seat justfor the right to buy season tickets werenever told that their Super Bowl seatswould be temporary with obstructedviews The lawsuit says the team hasoffered no compensation forldquoillegitimate seatsrdquo
The NFL has said that the roughly 400fans have two options The first is aticket to next yearrsquos Super Bowl and acash payment of $2400 three timesthe face value of the ticket The secondis a ticket to any future Super Bowlalong with round-trip airfare and hotelaccommodations

The softball team has toset its standards high in thebeginning of its tenth sea-son
Thatrsquos what head coachRenee Luers-Gillispie saidbefore the Knights begintheir season on Friday inLos Angeles against UtahState and play against thedefending national cham-pion UCLA on Saturdaynight
Standards couldnrsquot getany higher
ldquoI think you have to facethe tougher teams early onto see what yoursquore made ofand that really does giveyou a chance to prepare forconference [play] and tous conference is every-thingrdquo Gillispie said
UCF went 36-23 lastseason beating top-rankedprograms Nebraska andAlabama and were 16-7 inConference USA TheKnights lost to East Caroli-na in the C-USA Champi-onship but still played inthe NCAA Tournament
ldquoWersquore back in the samemode we were in last yearrdquoGillispie said ldquoI have the
same fears the same con-cerns that we had last yearand you wonrsquot know untilyou play that first gamewhere exactly yoursquore goingto berdquo
Throughout the 10years that the softball teamhas been a varsity programGillispie has been the headcoach and the Knightshave come a long way
ldquoI think now that wersquovekind of set the stage we areexpected to do that everyyearrdquo Gillispie said
Gillispie said that theteam has proved that theirsuccesses havenrsquot beenflukes
ldquoOverall nationally Ithink wersquore being recog-nized for being a teamthatrsquos here nowrdquo Gillispiesaid
The Knightsrsquo top pitch-er last year Ashleigh Colegraduated after going 24-14The Knights are hopingthat pitchers Diana Rojasand Ashley Schmitt areable to help carry the teamto the NCAA Tournamentin Colersquos absence Rojashad some pitching experi-ence last season going 2-2while Schmitt went 2-1

Haley Douglas roundsup the pitching staff Dou-glas the only freshman onthe team is from Californiaand will have her entirefamily in the stands at thisweekendrsquos tournament
The rest of the Knightsare practicing two posi-tions each
ldquoWe are fightingthrough a few injuries earlyon which is toughrdquo
Gillispie said ldquoThatrsquos whywe have so many playersplaying so many differentpositions In case we dohave something go downwe have a backup in everypositionrdquo
Returning star TiffanyLane has been practicing atshortstop and in the out-field Lane made the All-C-USA First Team last sea-son and is on theAll-C-USA PreseasonTeam
Natalie Land whojoined Lane on the C-USAFirst Team will be playingsecond base and shortstopLand also made the ESPN

ldquoAbby is a solid player Iwish I had nine of herrdquoGillispie said ldquoShersquos whatyou consider our trueleaderrdquo
Should a player getinjured Gillispie can rotatethe infield to fill positions
Offensively Gillispiesaid the Knights should beOK The Knights beatteams several times in thefall by 14 or 15 runs
ldquoOur fall was probablythe best fall offensive yearwersquove hadrdquo Gillispie saidldquoWe hadnrsquot had that in thepast we hadnrsquot had thatkind of offensive strengthrdquo
After a junior-collegeintensive fall season inwhich the Knights rolled tomultiple big wins the pres-sure starts early at thisweekendrsquos Stacy WinsbergMemorial Tournament
ldquoNow is the time to seewhen theyrsquore in that pres-sured situationrdquo Gillispiesaid ldquoWe always joke thatitrsquos not pressure itrsquos oppor-tunity When they havethat opportunity to reallyshine at the plate are theygoing to be able to do itrdquo

Recording artist and songwriter Joshua Radinbrought an eclectic performance to the Plaza Theatrein downtown Orlando on Feb 7 entertaining an eagercrowd of college and middle-aged fans
Radin performed a few tracks from his newestalbum released last September The Rock and the Tidebut primarily played songs such as ldquoCloserrdquo and ldquoIrsquodRather Be With Yourdquo from his first two albums
During the upbeat songs Radin encouraged thecrowd to stand up clap and sing along with his musicHe furthered this sense of performer-to-crowd intima-cy by providing emotional explanations for many ofhis songs
ldquoI love these venues that are at a small theatrebecause itrsquos so personalrdquo said Camila Ramon a stu-dent from Miami ldquoThe people out there are all aboutlooks and commercial stuff and hersquos [Radin] just truetalentrdquo
Bryan Young a sophomore at Winter Park HighSchool also enjoys Radinrsquos ability to emotionally cap-tivate his fans
ldquoAbout a year and a half ago I got pretty upsetbecause of a girl found Radin on YouTube and Irsquovebeen listening to him ever sincerdquo Young said ldquoWhenhe was playing I was in awe I enjoyed every secondof itrdquo
Radinrsquos commercial success began in 2004 whenhis song ldquoWinterrdquo was featured in an episode of the hittelevision series Scrubs He has since released threealbums and completed several tours
Radinrsquos set list varied from calm solo-acousticsongs to rock-style pieces that ended in fast movingimprovisations with the accompaniment of a fullband
Some of Radinrsquos loyal fans were not pleased to hearhim stray from his simple acoustic roots
Rich Hibner from Gainesville who has seen Radinin concert four times in the past six years voiced hisdiscontent with the new music
ldquoIrsquom not really enthusiastic about his shift into rockrsquonrsquo rollrdquo Hibner said ldquoI think his strength is that he cancreate powerful music with just his guitarrdquo
When interviewed Radin spoke candidly about theresponse of the Orlando crowd to his music
ldquoItrsquos always nice to look a standing ovation in thefacerdquo Radin said speaking of the audiencersquos encore
Radin said his musical success has been a slowclimb but worth it
ldquoItrsquos been a slow and steady buildrdquo Radin saidldquoEvery time you return to a town you hope a few morepeople will show up Thatrsquos how 30-year careers aremaderdquo

There are often timeswhen men strike out withtheir woman for missingan anniversary or maybeeven a birthday
Valentinersquos Day how-ever is everywhereThere is no way to missit no way to forget thedate and no excuse fordoing nothing
Unless the girl in yourlife despises the ldquoHall-mark-maderdquo day sheshould expect the guy toremember
Herersquos the thing menValentinersquos Day is yourticket to get corny Not alot of effort has to be putinto this day compared tosay an anniversary
The big teddy bear theflowers the chocolate areall acceptable especiallywith a new relationship
Extra importance mustbe paid however to thedelivery which I willexplain toward the endCheap corny gifts arefine but if you just handit to your lady with aldquohere you gordquo it comesacross as pure lazinesswhich you are of coursetrying to mask
Those of you guyswho are single but have aspecial Valentine in mindshould step up the cute-
ness factor Ask her out tosomething cute like iceskating or dinner at a nicerestaurant followed by anice walk Make it agroup thing if itrsquos morecomfortable but makesure you spend most ofthe time getting to knowher
A recent article forRedbook magazine byAaron Traister empha-sizes ldquoThe Real ReasonGuys Hate ValentinersquosDayrdquo In it he says menldquotolerate it because[women] seem to havesome unexplained affec-tion for itrdquo He adds thatthe holiday is ldquodesignedto make men feel likeinadequate insensitivefailuresrdquo
You should only feelthat way when compar-ing yourself to someoneelse when you should befocused on how she feelsabout you
Evan a business majorsaid Valentinersquos Dayldquoshould not be as big aholiday as it isrdquo but stillplans to do something onthe special day He saiddinner and flowers is usu-ally the way he goes onValentinersquos Day
His girlfriend of fourmonths Megan a busi-ness major mdash seemedequally as unexcitedabout the day
On Feb 6 they stillhad no plans but saidthey will probably plansomething a few daysbefore She agreed that anice dinner is usually theway to go
Most of you guys goout to dinner with yourspecial lady on regulardays Why not on Valen-tinersquos Day
And if you are on abudget why not cook herdinner This is somethingRobert Ponsonby amechanical engineeringmajor plans to do in thefuture I caught up withhim and his friends to seewhat single UCF guysthink of this holiday
Ponsonby has no planson choosing a Valentinethis year but said whenhe does he will be sure tomake an effort
ldquoIf itrsquos important to heritrsquos important to merdquo Pon-sonby said
As the seemingly lessexcited of the bunch TJLeach a mechanical engi-neering major had a sur-prisingly good take on it bysaying ldquoa long walk on thebeachrdquo will be his style
Clicheacute Sure But thatwill be the furthest thingfrom that womanrsquos mindwhen yoursquore walking handin hand with the sand inyour toes
As I mentioned itrsquos all inthe delivery When yoursquorehanding her a corny teddybear and typical flowershold her by the hand lookher in the eyes and tell hereverything that is goodabout ldquousrdquo
You donrsquot have to havean explanation for why yougave her a white gorillaholding a box of chocolatesjust let her know that shedeserves everythingincluding you Let herknow that her gift for theday and the rest of yourrelationship is your dedica-tion to her
If she is working duringValentinersquos Day send flow-ers to her job You can savemoney on delivery bydoing it yourself and mak-ing sure she doesnrsquot see youor simply handing it to herBuy a bunch from Publixand arrange it yourself Itrsquosless expensive and showsher you tried
Now ladies do not getupset with him for never
doing anything romantic ifyou have not reciprocatedthe sentiment
When I asked the guyswhat they would like inreturn (keeping it as cleanas possible) Leach said awoman to make him dinnerwould be a good sentimentespecially considering thathe would do it for them
Ponsonby preferred alaid back relaxing daytogether with his Valentine
At least one of theseseem doable right ladiesValentinersquos Day need not bea hassle It can be enjoyablefor both as long as youmake it a day of love likeany other with a specialtwist
Happy Valentinersquos DayKnights

f we told you to imaginea place where heroinaddicts can shoot up
openly without any fear ofbeing arrested yoursquod proba-bly twerk your head and askus what wersquore on
Oddly enough such aplace exists in VancouverBritish Columbia
Insite is a clinic that pro-vides addicts with free nee-dles in an effort to stop thespread of HIV Seventy-fivepercent of those who usethe facility change theirinjection behavior for thebetter
Itrsquos been successful thusfar and we would like to seesomething similar imple-mented here in the States
The operation started in2003 in one of the areas ofCanada where AIDS wasspreading most rapidly Thegoal was simple provide theusers with sterile equip-ment and supervision so asto reduce the spread of HIVand reduce deaths fromoverdoses
There are 12 stationswhere users sit in front of awell-lit mirror while theyinject themselves Herethey will find all the materi-als needed for injectionHowever Insite does nothelp the users obtain any
drugs everyone who walksthrough the front doorsalready has drugs on themand nearly all of them areseasoned drug users
Nurses and other trainedmedical personnel are read-ily available to provideassistance in shooting up orto rush to provide emer-gency medical aid in case ofoverdose
Although Insite mayfacilitate drug use it in noway promotes it Locatedupstairs is Onsite an addic-tion treatment facilitywhere many users often endup going for help
Nothing like this has everbeen done in America Theclosest wersquove had are pro-grams that hand out freesterile needles to drugusers In New York thisprogram resulted in reduc-ing HIV infection from 4 to1 for every 100 drug users
In 2009 a three-yearstudy started in whichadults in the District ofColumbia and the Bronx areregularly tested for AIDSand then promptly treated iffound to have the virus Thetreatment has also beenshown to reduce the rate ofspreading the infection
Insite also has a verysimilar ldquotest and treatrdquo poli-
cy thatrsquos been very effectiveThose who take the anti-retroviral used to treatAIDS have been found to be90 percent less infective
All these practices aretruly good things and weneed to make communitiesmore aware of this deadlyhighly contagious diseaseItrsquos not enough to hand outpamphlets or broadcastpublic service announce-ments we need to help peo-ple help themselves
Drug users on the streetdonrsquot have the means toobtain clean supplies ontheir own because they areaddicted and theyrsquoll do any-thing to get a fix Whatrsquosworse is that dealers willoften sell used needlesclaiming theyrsquore sterile soitrsquos nearly impossible toknow what to trust
We donrsquot want to fueladdiction among drugusers We want to see therate of HIV infections low-ered across the country andwe believe the way to dothis is to provide supervisedinjection clinics such asInsite
Insite has had its legaltroubles and fair share ofpublic outrage but popularopinion can be sacrificed ifit means saving lives

UCFrsquos campus needsto quit mdash cold turkey
The ban on smokingshould extend to the side-walks crossways andcourtyards Tobaccoshouldnrsquot be allowed any-where at UCF
The current policyallows people to smokeanywhere outside as longas they arenrsquot within 15feet of an entrance I donrsquotbelieve this is enough
Irsquom fed up with having to hold mybreath as a smoker puffs out deadlytoxins that linger in my nose longafter theyrsquore gone Itrsquos a daily annoy-ance that I and plenty of other stu-dents must deal with while walkingto and from class With so many anti-smoking campaigns nationwide Idonrsquot think a ban such as this wouldbe inconceivable
Many campuses have already pro-hibited smoking indoors and out-doors No colleges or universities inArkansas and Pennsylvania allowanyone to smoke anywhere on cam-pus Educationrsquos new attitude towardsmoking on campus comes from a setof guidelines published by the Ameri-can College Health Association in2009 that all tobacco use is a ldquosignifi-cant health hazardrdquo
If only through force of inconven-ience it prevents smokers from get-ting their deadly fix near other peo-ple This protects non-smokerstraveling on campus from unwillinglyinhaling secondhand smoke Accord-ing to wwwcancerorg secondhandsmoke has more cancer-causingagents than the smoke inhaled by theperson dragging on the cigarette
Yes I do have a reason to bepissed when yoursquore smoking near tome Yoursquore killing me mdash literally Buteven if ldquoNo Smokingrdquo was chiseledinto every brick on every building atUCF I donrsquot think that would beenough This is an effort that needs tobe supported and enforced by the
communityEnforcers tend to be
slim on the university andcollege campuses thatclaim to be smoke-freeaccording to an articlerecently published onwwwInsideHigher-Edcom Smoking still hap-pens on these campusesbecause the motivation toquit isnrsquot there
Guidelines by theACHA seem to give a clear outline ofhow to implement a smoke-free sys-tem but they still donrsquot tell of a fool-hardy way to protect miles of opencampus from the people who aregoing to break these rules anyway
While a 100 percent campus-wideban on smoking would be ideal itrsquosproblematic Smoking isnrsquot illegal andwould require those who cannot kickthe habit to leave campus wheneverthey get the urge Thatrsquos why many ofthese campuses have created desig-nated smoking areas
Having these designated areaswould encourage an effort to elimi-nate tobacco on campus It wouldgive smokers a break and non-smok-ers a breather It would mean acleaner campus where cigarettebutts donrsquot litter the ground outsideIt would mean less harassment forsmokers about their habit As a non-smoker I wouldnrsquot mind walking afew more blocks in order to avoidone of these areas
The ACHA sets high standardsbut I believe our campus can meetthem with enough support Our uni-versity promotes healthy lifestylesand this ban on tobacco should beevidence of that rather than beingseen as a punishment
Should our campus quit coldturkey it would promote healthierlifestyles and cleaner environmentsfor students faculty and visitors Thismethod has been known to increasethe percentage of non-smokers incampus communities

NATE BEELER THE WASHINGTON EXAMINER
So the other day I was -surfing the Web trying todetermine what Inceptionwas really about and I wasmind-blown to notice thatLeorsquos partner is played byJoseph Gordon-Levitt thekid from Angels in the Out-field
Then upon furtherinvestigation I was linkedto his other movies such as(500) Days of Summerdirected by Marc Webb who as itturns out is the same director in chargeof re-booting the Spider-Man film fran-chise Did you know the new Spider-Man is going to be played by that guyfrom The Social Network Not MarkZuckerberg but his roommate
Anyway my point is this I wentfrom Inception to Joseph Gordon-Levitt to Angels in the Outfield back toJoseph Gordon-Levitt to (500) Days ofSummer to Marc Webb to Spider-Manto Andrew Garfield to The Social Net-work all in about a matter of 10 min-utes Quick extremely simple and (forthe most part) reliable information
Those of you who have never heardof Wikipedia probably now think Irsquominsane
But if yoursquore one of the almost-300million daily Wikipedia viewers youmay be laughing quietly to yourself asIrsquom sure yoursquove had episodes of theseldquoWiki-tripsrdquo very similar to the one Ijust described
Yet aside from useless trivialmovie facts Wikipedia is also chock-full of millions of informative articleswhether itrsquos programming languagetax accounting or cognitive scienceThink about any subject and therersquosmost likely a Wikipedia page for it
This is exactly what co-foundersJimmy Wales and Larry Sanger had inmind when they decided to launch theonline encyclopedia in 2001 Theywanted to create an information baseso fast and so simple that you couldhave access to anything you desirewith just the click of a mouse
Obviously the two of them couldnrsquotwrite and update the more than 3 mil-lion articles by themselves so they setup their website in a way that anybodycan edit any particular page
Now this is where it gets messy On one hand you have the in-depth
insights of anyone in the world on anygiven subject constituting well-round-ed articles that tell both sides of the
story On the other hand you
have Wiki ldquovandalsrdquo whowill virtually tear apart arti-cles writing falsehoods andother totally irrelevant infor-mation just because theycan
Although the site hasplenty of editor-experts whofact-check additions to arti-cles and duly delete inap-propriate ones this flaw in
Wikipediarsquos system seriously restrictsthe site from being viewed as a legiti-mate academic reference tool
Now however Wikipedia is lookingto improve its role and usefulness inacademic settings especially withincolleges and universities
But should a site that is so inclinedtoward bias and misinformation everbe taken seriously
Not yet But eventually it very wellcould be
The way I look at it Wikipedia is afantastic starting source partiallybecause it provides links to othersources Like I mentioned itrsquos incredi-bly quick and easy to gather the infor-mation yoursquore looking for
But as with any source you need totake it with a grain of salt
As they say donrsquot believe every-thing you read Yoursquore not just going togo read one book at the library and callit research You need backup sourcesto confirm what yoursquore reading is true
The same goes for Wikipedia Ifyou find a piece of information youneed great Now go look for anothersource to back it up If yoursquoreresearching US history and it readsldquoThe first president of the UnitedStates was Eminemrdquo mdash itrsquos funny butdefinitely isnrsquot true
The site is also looking for otherways to increase its legitimacy as anacademic source such as having uni-versity professors ldquoflagrdquo certain articlesthat they think are appropriate or notappropriate for use While this solutionis far from perfect itrsquos a solid start
As of now I feel that Wikipedia hasa long way to go before it can be citedindependently in research
Even so when used correctly if youactually analyze and think criticallyabout the information being present-ed the site has some tremendouspotential and is a fine startingresource for whatever informationyou may wish to pursue
Wikipedia not readyfor the classroom yet

Now she hopes to rein-state UCF as one of thetop intercollegiate debateteams in the country atthis weekendrsquos invitation-al named in honor of JeffButler who was one of theschoolrsquos first debate
leadersButler who is now an
associate professor in theNSC is glad that thedebate program has beenbrought back
ldquoUCF was once nation-ally prominent in compet-itive debaterdquo Butler saidldquoReinstating a prominentdebate program providesinvaluable opportunitiesto our students the uni-versity and the communi-tyrdquo
Butler formed the teamin 1970 when UCF was stillknown as Florida Techno-logical University UCFfaced off against schoolssuch as Harvard Dart-mouth Cornell Oxford
and Cambridge The teamalso hosted the SovietNational Debate Team atthe height of the Cold Warera
The team won count-less awards and madeappearances in severalchampionships at thenational level in additionto being ranked No 1 in thestate of Florida for fiveyears in a row
This weekendrsquos compe-tition will consist of sever-al rounds spread out overthe two-day period fol-lowed by an awards cere-mony Students will com-pete in a two-on-twopolicy debate in front of apanel of judges
Competitors will bedivided into three levels ofskill open junior varsityand novice
There will be a total ofeight speeches per roundas well as a cross-examina-tion round The four con-structive speeches focuson the initial building of ateamrsquos case dependentupon their negative oraffirmative stance Inbetween the constructivespeeches is a cross-exami-nation round where teamshave the opportunity toquestion their opponentson their stance
The last four speechesare called the rebuttalspeeches that focus on
which team can upholdtheir case with thestrongest argument
Junior molecular biolo-gy and microbiologymajor Christina Vitolo andfreshman political sciencemajor Emily Johns will berepresenting UCF in thejunior varsity category
Johns has been activelycompeting in debates forseven years in the Nation-al Christian Forensics andCommunications Associa-tion an organization thatgoverns home schooldebate and was thrilled todiscover that UCF hadrevived its team
ldquoI love the competi-tionrdquo said Johns who con-
siders herself to be a verycompetitive person ldquoItrsquosacademic itrsquos keeping usinvolved and up-to-dateon current events Itrsquos afine art that you can pur-sue to challenge yourselfItrsquos a lot of funrdquo

ldquoStudents often avoidtaking advantage of serv-ices due to stigma espe-cially around emotionalhealth issuesrdquo Mas-troianni said
The Wellness Centeroffers stress-manage-ment services that manystudents may not beaware of according toMastroianni It offersnutrition and fitnesseducation includingcooking classes as wellas programs to enhancesexual wellness
The UCF CounselingCenter offers workshopsto help students copewith stress and otheremotional health issuesThe Real Project is also apart of the current cam-pus health options and iscentered on addictionhelp
Mastroianni said thatmore can be done aboutpromoting better sleep
patterns decreasing risktaking and helping stu-dents express emotionseffectively
In addition he saidstudents continue tostruggle in findinghealthy meal optionsthat are affordablethough there are severalhealthy eating options oncampus
Freshman Josh Gar-ber an engineeringmajor said he is contentwith his options
ldquoTherersquos really every-thing I could ask forrdquoGarber said
He added that thoughBurger King isnrsquot usuallyamong his choices hedoesnrsquot think it would betoo hard to find some-thing moderately healthyas many fast food restau-rants are providinghealthier options
Instead of using theCounseling Center tocope with stress Garberturns to a different facili-ty
ldquoWhen Irsquom stressed
out I take advantage ofthe Fitness Centerrdquo Gar-ber said
Biology majorMichelle Ingman prefersSubway as her mainchoice of campus restau-rant
She said she doesnrsquotcurrently take advan-tage of the emotionalhealth services on cam-pus but has heard a lotabout the CounselingCenter and how wel-coming it is
Dr J Robert Wiragdirector of UCF HealthServices said he consid-ers Healthy Knights 2020to be an effort that willcontinue through intothe future
ldquoWhen we reach 2020we expect to look backand say lsquoWhat a power-ful demonstrated impactwe have had on helpingpromote the HealthyPeople 2020 goalsrsquo rdquoWirag said
He said the HealthyKnights 2020 website tobe a ldquoone-stop point of
accessrdquo to information abouthealth programs and servic-es that will change frequent-ly as new informationbecomes available
ldquoWe are very excitedabout this Campus HealthInitiativerdquo Wirag said

NOT SO SUPER FANS WITH-OUT SUPER BOWL SEATS SUE
DALLAS mdash Football fans have filed alawsuit accusing the NFL the DallasCowboys and team owner Jerry Jonesof deceiving hundreds of people whobought Super Bowl tickets and had noseats or got seats they felt wereinadequate

Spokesmen for the Cowboys and theNFL had no comment
The NFL had announced hours beforethe game that about 1250 temporaryseats were deemed unsafe and theleague scrambled to find new seats forabout 850 people The remaining 400were forced to watch the game on TVmonitors or from standing-room-onlyareas
The lawsuit alleges that Cowboysfans who paid $100000 per seat justfor the right to buy season tickets werenever told that their Super Bowl seatswould be temporary with obstructedviews The lawsuit says the team hasoffered no compensation forldquoillegitimate seatsrdquo
The NFL has said that the roughly 400fans have two options The first is aticket to next yearrsquos Super Bowl and acash payment of $2400 three timesthe face value of the ticket The secondis a ticket to any future Super Bowlalong with round-trip airfare and hotelaccommodations

The softball team has toset its standards high in thebeginning of its tenth sea-son
Thatrsquos what head coachRenee Luers-Gillispie saidbefore the Knights begintheir season on Friday inLos Angeles against UtahState and play against thedefending national cham-pion UCLA on Saturdaynight
Standards couldnrsquot getany higher
ldquoI think you have to facethe tougher teams early onto see what yoursquore made ofand that really does giveyou a chance to prepare forconference [play] and tous conference is every-thingrdquo Gillispie said
UCF went 36-23 lastseason beating top-rankedprograms Nebraska andAlabama and were 16-7 inConference USA TheKnights lost to East Caroli-na in the C-USA Champi-onship but still played inthe NCAA Tournament
ldquoWersquore back in the samemode we were in last yearrdquoGillispie said ldquoI have the
same fears the same con-cerns that we had last yearand you wonrsquot know untilyou play that first gamewhere exactly yoursquore goingto berdquo
Throughout the 10years that the softball teamhas been a varsity programGillispie has been the headcoach and the Knightshave come a long way
ldquoI think now that wersquovekind of set the stage we areexpected to do that everyyearrdquo Gillispie said
Gillispie said that theteam has proved that theirsuccesses havenrsquot beenflukes
ldquoOverall nationally Ithink wersquore being recog-nized for being a teamthatrsquos here nowrdquo Gillispiesaid
The Knightsrsquo top pitch-er last year Ashleigh Colegraduated after going 24-14The Knights are hopingthat pitchers Diana Rojasand Ashley Schmitt areable to help carry the teamto the NCAA Tournamentin Colersquos absence Rojashad some pitching experi-ence last season going 2-2while Schmitt went 2-1

Recording artist and songwriter Joshua Radinbrought an eclectic performance to the Plaza Theatrein downtown Orlando on Feb 7 entertaining an eagercrowd of college and middle-aged fans
Radin performed a few tracks from his newestalbum released last September The Rock and the Tidebut primarily played songs such as ldquoCloserrdquo and ldquoIrsquodRather Be With Yourdquo from his first two albums
During the upbeat songs Radin encouraged thecrowd to stand up clap and sing along with his musicHe furthered this sense of performer-to-crowd intima-cy by providing emotional explanations for many ofhis songs
ldquoI love these venues that are at a small theatrebecause itrsquos so personalrdquo said Camila Ramon a stu-dent from Miami ldquoThe people out there are all aboutlooks and commercial stuff and hersquos [Radin] just truetalentrdquo
Bryan Young a sophomore at Winter Park HighSchool also enjoys Radinrsquos ability to emotionally cap-tivate his fans
ldquoAbout a year and a half ago I got pretty upsetbecause of a girl found Radin on YouTube and Irsquovebeen listening to him ever sincerdquo Young said ldquoWhenhe was playing I was in awe I enjoyed every secondof itrdquo
Radinrsquos commercial success began in 2004 whenhis song ldquoWinterrdquo was featured in an episode of the hittelevision series Scrubs He has since released threealbums and completed several tours
Radinrsquos set list varied from calm solo-acousticsongs to rock-style pieces that ended in fast movingimprovisations with the accompaniment of a fullband
Some of Radinrsquos loyal fans were not pleased to hearhim stray from his simple acoustic roots
Rich Hibner from Gainesville who has seen Radinin concert four times in the past six years voiced hisdiscontent with the new music
ldquoIrsquom not really enthusiastic about his shift into rockrsquonrsquo rollrdquo Hibner said ldquoI think his strength is that he cancreate powerful music with just his guitarrdquo
When interviewed Radin spoke candidly about theresponse of the Orlando crowd to his music
ldquoItrsquos always nice to look a standing ovation in thefacerdquo Radin said speaking of the audiencersquos encore
Radin said his musical success has been a slowclimb but worth it
ldquoItrsquos been a slow and steady buildrdquo Radin saidldquoEvery time you return to a town you hope a few morepeople will show up Thatrsquos how 30-year careers aremaderdquo

There are often timeswhen men strike out withtheir woman for missingan anniversary or maybeeven a birthday
Valentinersquos Day how-ever is everywhereThere is no way to missit no way to forget thedate and no excuse fordoing nothing
Unless the girl in yourlife despises the ldquoHall-mark-maderdquo day sheshould expect the guy toremember
Herersquos the thing menValentinersquos Day is yourticket to get corny Not alot of effort has to be putinto this day compared tosay an anniversary
The big teddy bear theflowers the chocolate areall acceptable especiallywith a new relationship
Extra importance mustbe paid however to thedelivery which I willexplain toward the endCheap corny gifts arefine but if you just handit to your lady with aldquohere you gordquo it comesacross as pure lazinesswhich you are of coursetrying to mask
Those of you guyswho are single but have aspecial Valentine in mindshould step up the cute-
ness factor Ask her out tosomething cute like iceskating or dinner at a nicerestaurant followed by anice walk Make it agroup thing if itrsquos morecomfortable but makesure you spend most ofthe time getting to knowher
A recent article forRedbook magazine byAaron Traister empha-sizes ldquoThe Real ReasonGuys Hate ValentinersquosDayrdquo In it he says menldquotolerate it because[women] seem to havesome unexplained affec-tion for itrdquo He adds thatthe holiday is ldquodesignedto make men feel likeinadequate insensitivefailuresrdquo
You should only feelthat way when compar-ing yourself to someoneelse when you should befocused on how she feelsabout you
Evan a business majorsaid Valentinersquos Dayldquoshould not be as big aholiday as it isrdquo but stillplans to do something onthe special day He saiddinner and flowers is usu-ally the way he goes onValentinersquos Day
His girlfriend of fourmonths Megan a busi-ness major mdash seemedequally as unexcitedabout the day
On Feb 6 they stillhad no plans but saidthey will probably plansomething a few daysbefore She agreed that anice dinner is usually theway to go
Most of you guys goout to dinner with yourspecial lady on regulardays Why not on Valen-tinersquos Day
And if you are on abudget why not cook herdinner This is somethingRobert Ponsonby amechanical engineeringmajor plans to do in thefuture I caught up withhim and his friends to seewhat single UCF guysthink of this holiday
Ponsonby has no planson choosing a Valentinethis year but said whenhe does he will be sure tomake an effort
ldquoIf itrsquos important to heritrsquos important to merdquo Pon-sonby said
As the seemingly lessexcited of the bunch TJLeach a mechanical engi-neering major had a sur-prisingly good take on it bysaying ldquoa long walk on thebeachrdquo will be his style
Clicheacute Sure But thatwill be the furthest thingfrom that womanrsquos mindwhen yoursquore walking handin hand with the sand inyour toes
As I mentioned itrsquos all inthe delivery When yoursquorehanding her a corny teddybear and typical flowershold her by the hand lookher in the eyes and tell hereverything that is goodabout ldquousrdquo
You donrsquot have to havean explanation for why yougave her a white gorillaholding a box of chocolatesjust let her know that shedeserves everythingincluding you Let herknow that her gift for theday and the rest of yourrelationship is your dedica-tion to her
If she is working duringValentinersquos Day send flow-ers to her job You can savemoney on delivery bydoing it yourself and mak-ing sure she doesnrsquot see youor simply handing it to herBuy a bunch from Publixand arrange it yourself Itrsquosless expensive and showsher you tried
Now ladies do not getupset with him for never
doing anything romantic ifyou have not reciprocatedthe sentiment
When I asked the guyswhat they would like inreturn (keeping it as cleanas possible) Leach said awoman to make him dinnerwould be a good sentimentespecially considering thathe would do it for them
Ponsonby preferred alaid back relaxing daytogether with his Valentine
At least one of theseseem doable right ladiesValentinersquos Day need not bea hassle It can be enjoyablefor both as long as youmake it a day of love likeany other with a specialtwist
Happy Valentinersquos DayKnights

f we told you to imaginea place where heroinaddicts can shoot up
openly without any fear ofbeing arrested yoursquod proba-bly twerk your head and askus what wersquore on
Oddly enough such aplace exists in VancouverBritish Columbia
Insite is a clinic that pro-vides addicts with free nee-dles in an effort to stop thespread of HIV Seventy-fivepercent of those who usethe facility change theirinjection behavior for thebetter
Itrsquos been successful thusfar and we would like to seesomething similar imple-mented here in the States
The operation started in2003 in one of the areas ofCanada where AIDS wasspreading most rapidly Thegoal was simple provide theusers with sterile equip-ment and supervision so asto reduce the spread of HIVand reduce deaths fromoverdoses
There are 12 stationswhere users sit in front of awell-lit mirror while theyinject themselves Herethey will find all the materi-als needed for injectionHowever Insite does nothelp the users obtain any
drugs everyone who walksthrough the front doorsalready has drugs on themand nearly all of them areseasoned drug users
Nurses and other trainedmedical personnel are read-ily available to provideassistance in shooting up orto rush to provide emer-gency medical aid in case ofoverdose
Although Insite mayfacilitate drug use it in noway promotes it Locatedupstairs is Onsite an addic-tion treatment facilitywhere many users often endup going for help
Nothing like this has everbeen done in America Theclosest wersquove had are pro-grams that hand out freesterile needles to drugusers In New York thisprogram resulted in reduc-ing HIV infection from 4 to1 for every 100 drug users
In 2009 a three-yearstudy started in whichadults in the District ofColumbia and the Bronx areregularly tested for AIDSand then promptly treated iffound to have the virus Thetreatment has also beenshown to reduce the rate ofspreading the infection
Insite also has a verysimilar ldquotest and treatrdquo poli-
cy thatrsquos been very effectiveThose who take the anti-retroviral used to treatAIDS have been found to be90 percent less infective
All these practices aretruly good things and weneed to make communitiesmore aware of this deadlyhighly contagious diseaseItrsquos not enough to hand outpamphlets or broadcastpublic service announce-ments we need to help peo-ple help themselves
Drug users on the streetdonrsquot have the means toobtain clean supplies ontheir own because they areaddicted and theyrsquoll do any-thing to get a fix Whatrsquosworse is that dealers willoften sell used needlesclaiming theyrsquore sterile soitrsquos nearly impossible toknow what to trust
We donrsquot want to fueladdiction among drugusers We want to see therate of HIV infections low-ered across the country andwe believe the way to dothis is to provide supervisedinjection clinics such asInsite
Insite has had its legaltroubles and fair share ofpublic outrage but popularopinion can be sacrificed ifit means saving lives

UCFrsquos campus needsto quit mdash cold turkey
The ban on smokingshould extend to the side-walks crossways andcourtyards Tobaccoshouldnrsquot be allowed any-where at UCF
The current policyallows people to smokeanywhere outside as longas they arenrsquot within 15feet of an entrance I donrsquotbelieve this is enough
Irsquom fed up with having to hold mybreath as a smoker puffs out deadlytoxins that linger in my nose longafter theyrsquore gone Itrsquos a daily annoy-ance that I and plenty of other stu-dents must deal with while walkingto and from class With so many anti-smoking campaigns nationwide Idonrsquot think a ban such as this wouldbe inconceivable
Many campuses have already pro-hibited smoking indoors and out-doors No colleges or universities inArkansas and Pennsylvania allowanyone to smoke anywhere on cam-pus Educationrsquos new attitude towardsmoking on campus comes from a setof guidelines published by the Ameri-can College Health Association in2009 that all tobacco use is a ldquosignifi-cant health hazardrdquo
If only through force of inconven-ience it prevents smokers from get-ting their deadly fix near other peo-ple This protects non-smokerstraveling on campus from unwillinglyinhaling secondhand smoke Accord-ing to wwwcancerorg secondhandsmoke has more cancer-causingagents than the smoke inhaled by theperson dragging on the cigarette
Yes I do have a reason to bepissed when yoursquore smoking near tome Yoursquore killing me mdash literally Buteven if ldquoNo Smokingrdquo was chiseledinto every brick on every building atUCF I donrsquot think that would beenough This is an effort that needs tobe supported and enforced by the
communityEnforcers tend to be
slim on the university andcollege campuses thatclaim to be smoke-freeaccording to an articlerecently published onwwwInsideHigher-Edcom Smoking still hap-pens on these campusesbecause the motivation toquit isnrsquot there
Guidelines by theACHA seem to give a clear outline ofhow to implement a smoke-free sys-tem but they still donrsquot tell of a fool-hardy way to protect miles of opencampus from the people who aregoing to break these rules anyway
While a 100 percent campus-wideban on smoking would be ideal itrsquosproblematic Smoking isnrsquot illegal andwould require those who cannot kickthe habit to leave campus wheneverthey get the urge Thatrsquos why many ofthese campuses have created desig-nated smoking areas
Having these designated areaswould encourage an effort to elimi-nate tobacco on campus It wouldgive smokers a break and non-smok-ers a breather It would mean acleaner campus where cigarettebutts donrsquot litter the ground outsideIt would mean less harassment forsmokers about their habit As a non-smoker I wouldnrsquot mind walking afew more blocks in order to avoidone of these areas
The ACHA sets high standardsbut I believe our campus can meetthem with enough support Our uni-versity promotes healthy lifestylesand this ban on tobacco should beevidence of that rather than beingseen as a punishment
Should our campus quit coldturkey it would promote healthierlifestyles and cleaner environmentsfor students faculty and visitors Thismethod has been known to increasethe percentage of non-smokers incampus communities

NATE BEELER THE WASHINGTON EXAMINER
So the other day I was -surfing the Web trying todetermine what Inceptionwas really about and I wasmind-blown to notice thatLeorsquos partner is played byJoseph Gordon-Levitt thekid from Angels in the Out-field
Then upon furtherinvestigation I was linkedto his other movies such as(500) Days of Summerdirected by Marc Webb who as itturns out is the same director in chargeof re-booting the Spider-Man film fran-chise Did you know the new Spider-Man is going to be played by that guyfrom The Social Network Not MarkZuckerberg but his roommate
Anyway my point is this I wentfrom Inception to Joseph Gordon-Levitt to Angels in the Outfield back toJoseph Gordon-Levitt to (500) Days ofSummer to Marc Webb to Spider-Manto Andrew Garfield to The Social Net-work all in about a matter of 10 min-utes Quick extremely simple and (forthe most part) reliable information
Those of you who have never heardof Wikipedia probably now think Irsquominsane
But if yoursquore one of the almost-300million daily Wikipedia viewers youmay be laughing quietly to yourself asIrsquom sure yoursquove had episodes of theseldquoWiki-tripsrdquo very similar to the one Ijust described
Yet aside from useless trivialmovie facts Wikipedia is also chock-full of millions of informative articleswhether itrsquos programming languagetax accounting or cognitive scienceThink about any subject and therersquosmost likely a Wikipedia page for it
This is exactly what co-foundersJimmy Wales and Larry Sanger had inmind when they decided to launch theonline encyclopedia in 2001 Theywanted to create an information baseso fast and so simple that you couldhave access to anything you desirewith just the click of a mouse
Obviously the two of them couldnrsquotwrite and update the more than 3 mil-lion articles by themselves so they setup their website in a way that anybodycan edit any particular page
Now this is where it gets messy On one hand you have the in-depth
insights of anyone in the world on anygiven subject constituting well-round-ed articles that tell both sides of the
story On the other hand you
have Wiki ldquovandalsrdquo whowill virtually tear apart arti-cles writing falsehoods andother totally irrelevant infor-mation just because theycan
Although the site hasplenty of editor-experts whofact-check additions to arti-cles and duly delete inap-propriate ones this flaw in
Wikipediarsquos system seriously restrictsthe site from being viewed as a legiti-mate academic reference tool
Now however Wikipedia is lookingto improve its role and usefulness inacademic settings especially withincolleges and universities
But should a site that is so inclinedtoward bias and misinformation everbe taken seriously
Not yet But eventually it very wellcould be
The way I look at it Wikipedia is afantastic starting source partiallybecause it provides links to othersources Like I mentioned itrsquos incredi-bly quick and easy to gather the infor-mation yoursquore looking for
But as with any source you need totake it with a grain of salt
As they say donrsquot believe every-thing you read Yoursquore not just going togo read one book at the library and callit research You need backup sourcesto confirm what yoursquore reading is true
The same goes for Wikipedia Ifyou find a piece of information youneed great Now go look for anothersource to back it up If yoursquoreresearching US history and it readsldquoThe first president of the UnitedStates was Eminemrdquo mdash itrsquos funny butdefinitely isnrsquot true
The site is also looking for otherways to increase its legitimacy as anacademic source such as having uni-versity professors ldquoflagrdquo certain articlesthat they think are appropriate or notappropriate for use While this solutionis far from perfect itrsquos a solid start
As of now I feel that Wikipedia hasa long way to go before it can be citedindependently in research
Even so when used correctly if youactually analyze and think criticallyabout the information being present-ed the site has some tremendouspotential and is a fine startingresource for whatever informationyou may wish to pursue
Wikipedia not readyfor the classroom yet

She said women arenot forced to act or dressmodestly they do itbecause it pleases Godmdashitrsquos just that simpleaccording to Shahid

The lawsuit alleges that Cowboysfans who paid $100000 per seat justfor the right to buy season tickets werenever told that their Super Bowl seatswould be temporary with obstructedviews The lawsuit says the team hasoffered no compensation forldquoillegitimate seatsrdquo
The NFL has said that the roughly 400fans have two options The first is aticket to next yearrsquos Super Bowl and acash payment of $2400 three timesthe face value of the ticket The secondis a ticket to any future Super Bowlalong with round-trip airfare and hotelaccommodations

The softball team has toset its standards high in thebeginning of its tenth sea-son
Thatrsquos what head coachRenee Luers-Gillispie saidbefore the Knights begintheir season on Friday inLos Angeles against UtahState and play against thedefending national cham-pion UCLA on Saturdaynight
Standards couldnrsquot getany higher
ldquoI think you have to facethe tougher teams early onto see what yoursquore made ofand that really does giveyou a chance to prepare forconference [play] and tous conference is every-thingrdquo Gillispie said
UCF went 36-23 lastseason beating top-rankedprograms Nebraska andAlabama and were 16-7 inConference USA TheKnights lost to East Caroli-na in the C-USA Champi-onship but still played inthe NCAA Tournament
ldquoWersquore back in the samemode we were in last yearrdquoGillispie said ldquoI have the
same fears the same con-cerns that we had last yearand you wonrsquot know untilyou play that first gamewhere exactly yoursquore goingto berdquo
Throughout the 10years that the softball teamhas been a varsity programGillispie has been the headcoach and the Knightshave come a long way
ldquoI think now that wersquovekind of set the stage we areexpected to do that everyyearrdquo Gillispie said
Gillispie said that theteam has proved that theirsuccesses havenrsquot beenflukes
ldquoOverall nationally Ithink wersquore being recog-nized for being a teamthatrsquos here nowrdquo Gillispiesaid
The Knightsrsquo top pitch-er last year Ashleigh Colegraduated after going 24-14The Knights are hopingthat pitchers Diana Rojasand Ashley Schmitt areable to help carry the teamto the NCAA Tournamentin Colersquos absence Rojashad some pitching experi-ence last season going 2-2while Schmitt went 2-1
Mary Huff and Lacey
Dinney junior transferswill also pitch for theKnights Dinney and theSpartanburg MethodistCollege softball team wentto Nationals her freshmanyear
Haley Douglas roundsup the pitching staff Dou-glas the only freshman onthe team is from Californiaand will have her entirefamily in the stands at thisweekendrsquos tournament
The rest of the Knightsare practicing two posi-tions each
ldquoWe are fightingthrough a few injuries earlyon which is toughrdquo
Gillispie said ldquoThatrsquos whywe have so many playersplaying so many differentpositions In case we dohave something go downwe have a backup in everypositionrdquo
Returning star TiffanyLane has been practicing atshortstop and in the out-field Lane made the All-C-USA First Team last sea-son and is on theAll-C-USA PreseasonTeam
Natalie Land whojoined Lane on the C-USAFirst Team will be playingsecond base and shortstopLand also made the ESPN
Academic All-District IIISecond Team and the C-USA All-Academic Team
ldquoAbby is a solid player Iwish I had nine of herrdquoGillispie said ldquoShersquos whatyou consider our trueleaderrdquo
Should a player getinjured Gillispie can rotatethe infield to fill positions
Offensively Gillispiesaid the Knights should beOK The Knights beatteams several times in thefall by 14 or 15 runs
ldquoOur fall was probablythe best fall offensive yearwersquove hadrdquo Gillispie saidldquoWe hadnrsquot had that in thepast we hadnrsquot had thatkind of offensive strengthrdquo
After a junior-collegeintensive fall season inwhich the Knights rolled tomultiple big wins the pres-sure starts early at thisweekendrsquos Stacy WinsbergMemorial Tournament
ldquoNow is the time to seewhen theyrsquore in that pres-sured situationrdquo Gillispiesaid ldquoWe always joke thatitrsquos not pressure itrsquos oppor-tunity When they havethat opportunity to reallyshine at the plate are theygoing to be able to do itrdquo

Recording artist and songwriter Joshua Radinbrought an eclectic performance to the Plaza Theatrein downtown Orlando on Feb 7 entertaining an eagercrowd of college and middle-aged fans
Radin performed a few tracks from his newestalbum released last September The Rock and the Tidebut primarily played songs such as ldquoCloserrdquo and ldquoIrsquodRather Be With Yourdquo from his first two albums
During the upbeat songs Radin encouraged thecrowd to stand up clap and sing along with his musicHe furthered this sense of performer-to-crowd intima-cy by providing emotional explanations for many ofhis songs
ldquoI love these venues that are at a small theatrebecause itrsquos so personalrdquo said Camila Ramon a stu-dent from Miami ldquoThe people out there are all aboutlooks and commercial stuff and hersquos [Radin] just truetalentrdquo
Bryan Young a sophomore at Winter Park HighSchool also enjoys Radinrsquos ability to emotionally cap-tivate his fans
ldquoAbout a year and a half ago I got pretty upsetbecause of a girl found Radin on YouTube and Irsquovebeen listening to him ever sincerdquo Young said ldquoWhenhe was playing I was in awe I enjoyed every secondof itrdquo
Radinrsquos commercial success began in 2004 whenhis song ldquoWinterrdquo was featured in an episode of the hittelevision series Scrubs He has since released threealbums and completed several tours
Radinrsquos set list varied from calm solo-acousticsongs to rock-style pieces that ended in fast movingimprovisations with the accompaniment of a fullband
Some of Radinrsquos loyal fans were not pleased to hearhim stray from his simple acoustic roots
Rich Hibner from Gainesville who has seen Radinin concert four times in the past six years voiced hisdiscontent with the new music
ldquoIrsquom not really enthusiastic about his shift into rockrsquonrsquo rollrdquo Hibner said ldquoI think his strength is that he cancreate powerful music with just his guitarrdquo
When interviewed Radin spoke candidly about theresponse of the Orlando crowd to his music
ldquoItrsquos always nice to look a standing ovation in thefacerdquo Radin said speaking of the audiencersquos encore
Radin said his musical success has been a slowclimb but worth it
ldquoItrsquos been a slow and steady buildrdquo Radin saidldquoEvery time you return to a town you hope a few morepeople will show up Thatrsquos how 30-year careers aremaderdquo

SEX amp THE CAMPUS
There are often timeswhen men strike out withtheir woman for missingan anniversary or maybeeven a birthday
Valentinersquos Day how-ever is everywhereThere is no way to missit no way to forget thedate and no excuse fordoing nothing
Unless the girl in yourlife despises the ldquoHall-mark-maderdquo day sheshould expect the guy toremember
Herersquos the thing menValentinersquos Day is yourticket to get corny Not alot of effort has to be putinto this day compared tosay an anniversary
The big teddy bear theflowers the chocolate areall acceptable especiallywith a new relationship
Extra importance mustbe paid however to thedelivery which I willexplain toward the endCheap corny gifts arefine but if you just handit to your lady with aldquohere you gordquo it comesacross as pure lazinesswhich you are of coursetrying to mask
Those of you guyswho are single but have aspecial Valentine in mindshould step up the cute-
ness factor Ask her out tosomething cute like iceskating or dinner at a nicerestaurant followed by anice walk Make it agroup thing if itrsquos morecomfortable but makesure you spend most ofthe time getting to knowher
A recent article forRedbook magazine byAaron Traister empha-sizes ldquoThe Real ReasonGuys Hate ValentinersquosDayrdquo In it he says menldquotolerate it because[women] seem to havesome unexplained affec-tion for itrdquo He adds thatthe holiday is ldquodesignedto make men feel likeinadequate insensitivefailuresrdquo
You should only feelthat way when compar-ing yourself to someoneelse when you should befocused on how she feelsabout you
Evan a business majorsaid Valentinersquos Dayldquoshould not be as big aholiday as it isrdquo but stillplans to do something onthe special day He saiddinner and flowers is usu-ally the way he goes onValentinersquos Day
His girlfriend of fourmonths Megan a busi-ness major mdash seemedequally as unexcitedabout the day
On Feb 6 they stillhad no plans but saidthey will probably plansomething a few daysbefore She agreed that anice dinner is usually theway to go
Most of you guys goout to dinner with yourspecial lady on regulardays Why not on Valen-tinersquos Day
And if you are on abudget why not cook herdinner This is somethingRobert Ponsonby amechanical engineeringmajor plans to do in thefuture I caught up withhim and his friends to seewhat single UCF guysthink of this holiday
Ponsonby has no planson choosing a Valentinethis year but said whenhe does he will be sure tomake an effort
ldquoIf itrsquos important to heritrsquos important to merdquo Pon-sonby said
As the seemingly lessexcited of the bunch TJLeach a mechanical engi-neering major had a sur-prisingly good take on it bysaying ldquoa long walk on thebeachrdquo will be his style
Clicheacute Sure But thatwill be the furthest thingfrom that womanrsquos mindwhen yoursquore walking handin hand with the sand inyour toes
As I mentioned itrsquos all inthe delivery When yoursquorehanding her a corny teddybear and typical flowershold her by the hand lookher in the eyes and tell hereverything that is goodabout ldquousrdquo
You donrsquot have to havean explanation for why yougave her a white gorillaholding a box of chocolatesjust let her know that shedeserves everythingincluding you Let herknow that her gift for theday and the rest of yourrelationship is your dedica-tion to her
If she is working duringValentinersquos Day send flow-ers to her job You can savemoney on delivery bydoing it yourself and mak-ing sure she doesnrsquot see youor simply handing it to herBuy a bunch from Publixand arrange it yourself Itrsquosless expensive and showsher you tried
Now ladies do not getupset with him for never
doing anything romantic ifyou have not reciprocatedthe sentiment
When I asked the guyswhat they would like inreturn (keeping it as cleanas possible) Leach said awoman to make him dinnerwould be a good sentimentespecially considering thathe would do it for them
Ponsonby preferred alaid back relaxing daytogether with his Valentine
At least one of theseseem doable right ladiesValentinersquos Day need not bea hassle It can be enjoyablefor both as long as youmake it a day of love likeany other with a specialtwist
Happy Valentinersquos DayKnights

f we told you to imaginea place where heroinaddicts can shoot up
openly without any fear ofbeing arrested yoursquod proba-bly twerk your head and askus what wersquore on
Oddly enough such aplace exists in VancouverBritish Columbia
Insite is a clinic that pro-vides addicts with free nee-dles in an effort to stop thespread of HIV Seventy-fivepercent of those who usethe facility change theirinjection behavior for thebetter
Itrsquos been successful thusfar and we would like to seesomething similar imple-mented here in the States
The operation started in2003 in one of the areas ofCanada where AIDS wasspreading most rapidly Thegoal was simple provide theusers with sterile equip-ment and supervision so asto reduce the spread of HIVand reduce deaths fromoverdoses
There are 12 stationswhere users sit in front of awell-lit mirror while theyinject themselves Herethey will find all the materi-als needed for injectionHowever Insite does nothelp the users obtain any
drugs everyone who walksthrough the front doorsalready has drugs on themand nearly all of them areseasoned drug users
Nurses and other trainedmedical personnel are read-ily available to provideassistance in shooting up orto rush to provide emer-gency medical aid in case ofoverdose
Although Insite mayfacilitate drug use it in noway promotes it Locatedupstairs is Onsite an addic-tion treatment facilitywhere many users often endup going for help
Nothing like this has everbeen done in America Theclosest wersquove had are pro-grams that hand out freesterile needles to drugusers In New York thisprogram resulted in reduc-ing HIV infection from 4 to1 for every 100 drug users
In 2009 a three-yearstudy started in whichadults in the District ofColumbia and the Bronx areregularly tested for AIDSand then promptly treated iffound to have the virus Thetreatment has also beenshown to reduce the rate ofspreading the infection
Insite also has a verysimilar ldquotest and treatrdquo poli-
cy thatrsquos been very effectiveThose who take the anti-retroviral used to treatAIDS have been found to be90 percent less infective
All these practices aretruly good things and weneed to make communitiesmore aware of this deadlyhighly contagious diseaseItrsquos not enough to hand outpamphlets or broadcastpublic service announce-ments we need to help peo-ple help themselves
Drug users on the streetdonrsquot have the means toobtain clean supplies ontheir own because they areaddicted and theyrsquoll do any-thing to get a fix Whatrsquosworse is that dealers willoften sell used needlesclaiming theyrsquore sterile soitrsquos nearly impossible toknow what to trust
We donrsquot want to fueladdiction among drugusers We want to see therate of HIV infections low-ered across the country andwe believe the way to dothis is to provide supervisedinjection clinics such asInsite
Insite has had its legaltroubles and fair share ofpublic outrage but popularopinion can be sacrificed ifit means saving lives

UCFrsquos campus needsto quit mdash cold turkey
The ban on smokingshould extend to the side-walks crossways andcourtyards Tobaccoshouldnrsquot be allowed any-where at UCF
The current policyallows people to smokeanywhere outside as longas they arenrsquot within 15feet of an entrance I donrsquotbelieve this is enough
Irsquom fed up with having to hold mybreath as a smoker puffs out deadlytoxins that linger in my nose longafter theyrsquore gone Itrsquos a daily annoy-ance that I and plenty of other stu-dents must deal with while walkingto and from class With so many anti-smoking campaigns nationwide Idonrsquot think a ban such as this wouldbe inconceivable
Many campuses have already pro-hibited smoking indoors and out-doors No colleges or universities inArkansas and Pennsylvania allowanyone to smoke anywhere on cam-pus Educationrsquos new attitude towardsmoking on campus comes from a setof guidelines published by the Ameri-can College Health Association in2009 that all tobacco use is a ldquosignifi-cant health hazardrdquo
If only through force of inconven-ience it prevents smokers from get-ting their deadly fix near other peo-ple This protects non-smokerstraveling on campus from unwillinglyinhaling secondhand smoke Accord-ing to wwwcancerorg secondhandsmoke has more cancer-causingagents than the smoke inhaled by theperson dragging on the cigarette
Yes I do have a reason to bepissed when yoursquore smoking near tome Yoursquore killing me mdash literally Buteven if ldquoNo Smokingrdquo was chiseledinto every brick on every building atUCF I donrsquot think that would beenough This is an effort that needs tobe supported and enforced by the
communityEnforcers tend to be
slim on the university andcollege campuses thatclaim to be smoke-freeaccording to an articlerecently published onwwwInsideHigher-Edcom Smoking still hap-pens on these campusesbecause the motivation toquit isnrsquot there
Guidelines by theACHA seem to give a clear outline ofhow to implement a smoke-free sys-tem but they still donrsquot tell of a fool-hardy way to protect miles of opencampus from the people who aregoing to break these rules anyway
While a 100 percent campus-wideban on smoking would be ideal itrsquosproblematic Smoking isnrsquot illegal andwould require those who cannot kickthe habit to leave campus wheneverthey get the urge Thatrsquos why many ofthese campuses have created desig-nated smoking areas
Having these designated areaswould encourage an effort to elimi-nate tobacco on campus It wouldgive smokers a break and non-smok-ers a breather It would mean acleaner campus where cigarettebutts donrsquot litter the ground outsideIt would mean less harassment forsmokers about their habit As a non-smoker I wouldnrsquot mind walking afew more blocks in order to avoidone of these areas
The ACHA sets high standardsbut I believe our campus can meetthem with enough support Our uni-versity promotes healthy lifestylesand this ban on tobacco should beevidence of that rather than beingseen as a punishment
Should our campus quit coldturkey it would promote healthierlifestyles and cleaner environmentsfor students faculty and visitors Thismethod has been known to increasethe percentage of non-smokers incampus communities

NATE BEELER THE WASHINGTON EXAMINER
So the other day I was -surfing the Web trying todetermine what Inceptionwas really about and I wasmind-blown to notice thatLeorsquos partner is played byJoseph Gordon-Levitt thekid from Angels in the Out-field
Then upon furtherinvestigation I was linkedto his other movies such as(500) Days of Summerdirected by Marc Webb who as itturns out is the same director in chargeof re-booting the Spider-Man film fran-chise Did you know the new Spider-Man is going to be played by that guyfrom The Social Network Not MarkZuckerberg but his roommate
Anyway my point is this I wentfrom Inception to Joseph Gordon-Levitt to Angels in the Outfield back toJoseph Gordon-Levitt to (500) Days ofSummer to Marc Webb to Spider-Manto Andrew Garfield to The Social Net-work all in about a matter of 10 min-utes Quick extremely simple and (forthe most part) reliable information
Those of you who have never heardof Wikipedia probably now think Irsquominsane
But if yoursquore one of the almost-300million daily Wikipedia viewers youmay be laughing quietly to yourself asIrsquom sure yoursquove had episodes of theseldquoWiki-tripsrdquo very similar to the one Ijust described
Yet aside from useless trivialmovie facts Wikipedia is also chock-full of millions of informative articleswhether itrsquos programming languagetax accounting or cognitive scienceThink about any subject and therersquosmost likely a Wikipedia page for it
This is exactly what co-foundersJimmy Wales and Larry Sanger had inmind when they decided to launch theonline encyclopedia in 2001 Theywanted to create an information baseso fast and so simple that you couldhave access to anything you desirewith just the click of a mouse
Obviously the two of them couldnrsquotwrite and update the more than 3 mil-lion articles by themselves so they setup their website in a way that anybodycan edit any particular page
Now this is where it gets messy On one hand you have the in-depth
insights of anyone in the world on anygiven subject constituting well-round-ed articles that tell both sides of the
story On the other hand you
have Wiki ldquovandalsrdquo whowill virtually tear apart arti-cles writing falsehoods andother totally irrelevant infor-mation just because theycan
Although the site hasplenty of editor-experts whofact-check additions to arti-cles and duly delete inap-propriate ones this flaw in
Wikipediarsquos system seriously restrictsthe site from being viewed as a legiti-mate academic reference tool
Now however Wikipedia is lookingto improve its role and usefulness inacademic settings especially withincolleges and universities
But should a site that is so inclinedtoward bias and misinformation everbe taken seriously
Not yet But eventually it very wellcould be
The way I look at it Wikipedia is afantastic starting source partiallybecause it provides links to othersources Like I mentioned itrsquos incredi-bly quick and easy to gather the infor-mation yoursquore looking for
But as with any source you need totake it with a grain of salt
As they say donrsquot believe every-thing you read Yoursquore not just going togo read one book at the library and callit research You need backup sourcesto confirm what yoursquore reading is true
The same goes for Wikipedia Ifyou find a piece of information youneed great Now go look for anothersource to back it up If yoursquoreresearching US history and it readsldquoThe first president of the UnitedStates was Eminemrdquo mdash itrsquos funny butdefinitely isnrsquot true
The site is also looking for otherways to increase its legitimacy as anacademic source such as having uni-versity professors ldquoflagrdquo certain articlesthat they think are appropriate or notappropriate for use While this solutionis far from perfect itrsquos a solid start
As of now I feel that Wikipedia hasa long way to go before it can be citedindependently in research
Even so when used correctly if youactually analyze and think criticallyabout the information being present-ed the site has some tremendouspotential and is a fine startingresource for whatever informationyou may wish to pursue
Wikipedia not readyfor the classroom yet

The lawsuit alleges that Cowboysfans who paid $100000 per seat justfor the right to buy season tickets werenever told that their Super Bowl seatswould be temporary with obstructedviews The lawsuit says the team hasoffered no compensation forldquoillegitimate seatsrdquo
The NFL has said that the roughly 400fans have two options The first is aticket to next yearrsquos Super Bowl and acash payment of $2400 three timesthe face value of the ticket The secondis a ticket to any future Super Bowlalong with round-trip airfare and hotelaccommodations

The softball team has toset its standards high in thebeginning of its tenth sea-son
Thatrsquos what head coachRenee Luers-Gillispie saidbefore the Knights begintheir season on Friday inLos Angeles against UtahState and play against thedefending national cham-pion UCLA on Saturdaynight
Standards couldnrsquot getany higher
ldquoI think you have to facethe tougher teams early onto see what yoursquore made ofand that really does giveyou a chance to prepare forconference [play] and tous conference is every-thingrdquo Gillispie said
UCF went 36-23 lastseason beating top-rankedprograms Nebraska andAlabama and were 16-7 inConference USA TheKnights lost to East Caroli-na in the C-USA Champi-onship but still played inthe NCAA Tournament
ldquoWersquore back in the samemode we were in last yearrdquoGillispie said ldquoI have the
same fears the same con-cerns that we had last yearand you wonrsquot know untilyou play that first gamewhere exactly yoursquore goingto berdquo
Throughout the 10years that the softball teamhas been a varsity programGillispie has been the headcoach and the Knightshave come a long way
ldquoI think now that wersquovekind of set the stage we areexpected to do that everyyearrdquo Gillispie said
Gillispie said that theteam has proved that theirsuccesses havenrsquot beenflukes
ldquoOverall nationally Ithink wersquore being recog-nized for being a teamthatrsquos here nowrdquo Gillispiesaid
The Knightsrsquo top pitch-er last year Ashleigh Colegraduated after going 24-14The Knights are hopingthat pitchers Diana Rojasand Ashley Schmitt areable to help carry the teamto the NCAA Tournamentin Colersquos absence Rojashad some pitching experi-ence last season going 2-2while Schmitt went 2-1

Haley Douglas roundsup the pitching staff Dou-glas the only freshman onthe team is from Californiaand will have her entirefamily in the stands at thisweekendrsquos tournament
The rest of the Knightsare practicing two posi-tions each
ldquoWe are fightingthrough a few injuries earlyon which is toughrdquo
Gillispie said ldquoThatrsquos whywe have so many playersplaying so many differentpositions In case we dohave something go downwe have a backup in everypositionrdquo
Returning star TiffanyLane has been practicing atshortstop and in the out-field Lane made the All-C-USA First Team last sea-son and is on theAll-C-USA PreseasonTeam
Natalie Land whojoined Lane on the C-USAFirst Team will be playingsecond base and shortstopLand also made the ESPN

ldquoAbby is a solid player Iwish I had nine of herrdquoGillispie said ldquoShersquos whatyou consider our trueleaderrdquo
Should a player getinjured Gillispie can rotatethe infield to fill positions
Offensively Gillispiesaid the Knights should beOK The Knights beatteams several times in thefall by 14 or 15 runs
ldquoOur fall was probablythe best fall offensive yearwersquove hadrdquo Gillispie saidldquoWe hadnrsquot had that in thepast we hadnrsquot had thatkind of offensive strengthrdquo
After a junior-collegeintensive fall season inwhich the Knights rolled tomultiple big wins the pres-sure starts early at thisweekendrsquos Stacy WinsbergMemorial Tournament
ldquoNow is the time to seewhen theyrsquore in that pres-sured situationrdquo Gillispiesaid ldquoWe always joke thatitrsquos not pressure itrsquos oppor-tunity When they havethat opportunity to reallyshine at the plate are theygoing to be able to do itrdquo

Recording artist and songwriter Joshua Radinbrought an eclectic performance to the Plaza Theatrein downtown Orlando on Feb 7 entertaining an eagercrowd of college and middle-aged fans
Radin performed a few tracks from his newestalbum released last September The Rock and the Tidebut primarily played songs such as ldquoCloserrdquo and ldquoIrsquodRather Be With Yourdquo from his first two albums
During the upbeat songs Radin encouraged thecrowd to stand up clap and sing along with his musicHe furthered this sense of performer-to-crowd intima-cy by providing emotional explanations for many ofhis songs
ldquoI love these venues that are at a small theatrebecause itrsquos so personalrdquo said Camila Ramon a stu-dent from Miami ldquoThe people out there are all aboutlooks and commercial stuff and hersquos [Radin] just truetalentrdquo
Bryan Young a sophomore at Winter Park HighSchool also enjoys Radinrsquos ability to emotionally cap-tivate his fans
ldquoAbout a year and a half ago I got pretty upsetbecause of a girl found Radin on YouTube and Irsquovebeen listening to him ever sincerdquo Young said ldquoWhenhe was playing I was in awe I enjoyed every secondof itrdquo
Radinrsquos commercial success began in 2004 whenhis song ldquoWinterrdquo was featured in an episode of the hittelevision series Scrubs He has since released threealbums and completed several tours
Radinrsquos set list varied from calm solo-acousticsongs to rock-style pieces that ended in fast movingimprovisations with the accompaniment of a fullband
Some of Radinrsquos loyal fans were not pleased to hearhim stray from his simple acoustic roots
Rich Hibner from Gainesville who has seen Radinin concert four times in the past six years voiced hisdiscontent with the new music
ldquoIrsquom not really enthusiastic about his shift into rockrsquonrsquo rollrdquo Hibner said ldquoI think his strength is that he cancreate powerful music with just his guitarrdquo
When interviewed Radin spoke candidly about theresponse of the Orlando crowd to his music
ldquoItrsquos always nice to look a standing ovation in thefacerdquo Radin said speaking of the audiencersquos encore
Radin said his musical success has been a slowclimb but worth it
ldquoItrsquos been a slow and steady buildrdquo Radin saidldquoEvery time you return to a town you hope a few morepeople will show up Thatrsquos how 30-year careers aremaderdquo

There are often timeswhen men strike out withtheir woman for missingan anniversary or maybeeven a birthday
Valentinersquos Day how-ever is everywhereThere is no way to missit no way to forget thedate and no excuse fordoing nothing
Unless the girl in yourlife despises the ldquoHall-mark-maderdquo day sheshould expect the guy toremember
Herersquos the thing menValentinersquos Day is yourticket to get corny Not alot of effort has to be putinto this day compared tosay an anniversary
The big teddy bear theflowers the chocolate areall acceptable especiallywith a new relationship
Extra importance mustbe paid however to thedelivery which I willexplain toward the endCheap corny gifts arefine but if you just handit to your lady with aldquohere you gordquo it comesacross as pure lazinesswhich you are of coursetrying to mask
Those of you guyswho are single but have aspecial Valentine in mindshould step up the cute-
ness factor Ask her out tosomething cute like iceskating or dinner at a nicerestaurant followed by anice walk Make it agroup thing if itrsquos morecomfortable but makesure you spend most ofthe time getting to knowher
A recent article forRedbook magazine byAaron Traister empha-sizes ldquoThe Real ReasonGuys Hate ValentinersquosDayrdquo In it he says menldquotolerate it because[women] seem to havesome unexplained affec-tion for itrdquo He adds thatthe holiday is ldquodesignedto make men feel likeinadequate insensitivefailuresrdquo
You should only feelthat way when compar-ing yourself to someoneelse when you should befocused on how she feelsabout you
Evan a business majorsaid Valentinersquos Dayldquoshould not be as big aholiday as it isrdquo but stillplans to do something onthe special day He saiddinner and flowers is usu-ally the way he goes onValentinersquos Day
His girlfriend of fourmonths Megan a busi-ness major mdash seemedequally as unexcitedabout the day
On Feb 6 they stillhad no plans but saidthey will probably plansomething a few daysbefore She agreed that anice dinner is usually theway to go
Most of you guys goout to dinner with yourspecial lady on regulardays Why not on Valen-tinersquos Day
And if you are on abudget why not cook herdinner This is somethingRobert Ponsonby amechanical engineeringmajor plans to do in thefuture I caught up withhim and his friends to seewhat single UCF guysthink of this holiday
Ponsonby has no planson choosing a Valentinethis year but said whenhe does he will be sure tomake an effort
ldquoIf itrsquos important to heritrsquos important to merdquo Pon-sonby said
As the seemingly lessexcited of the bunch TJLeach a mechanical engi-neering major had a sur-prisingly good take on it bysaying ldquoa long walk on thebeachrdquo will be his style
Clicheacute Sure But thatwill be the furthest thingfrom that womanrsquos mindwhen yoursquore walking handin hand with the sand inyour toes
As I mentioned itrsquos all inthe delivery When yoursquorehanding her a corny teddybear and typical flowershold her by the hand lookher in the eyes and tell hereverything that is goodabout ldquousrdquo
You donrsquot have to havean explanation for why yougave her a white gorillaholding a box of chocolatesjust let her know that shedeserves everythingincluding you Let herknow that her gift for theday and the rest of yourrelationship is your dedica-tion to her
If she is working duringValentinersquos Day send flow-ers to her job You can savemoney on delivery bydoing it yourself and mak-ing sure she doesnrsquot see youor simply handing it to herBuy a bunch from Publixand arrange it yourself Itrsquosless expensive and showsher you tried
Now ladies do not getupset with him for never
doing anything romantic ifyou have not reciprocatedthe sentiment
When I asked the guyswhat they would like inreturn (keeping it as cleanas possible) Leach said awoman to make him dinnerwould be a good sentimentespecially considering thathe would do it for them
Ponsonby preferred alaid back relaxing daytogether with his Valentine
At least one of theseseem doable right ladiesValentinersquos Day need not bea hassle It can be enjoyablefor both as long as youmake it a day of love likeany other with a specialtwist
Happy Valentinersquos DayKnights

f we told you to imaginea place where heroinaddicts can shoot up
openly without any fear ofbeing arrested yoursquod proba-bly twerk your head and askus what wersquore on
Oddly enough such aplace exists in VancouverBritish Columbia
Insite is a clinic that pro-vides addicts with free nee-dles in an effort to stop thespread of HIV Seventy-fivepercent of those who usethe facility change theirinjection behavior for thebetter
Itrsquos been successful thusfar and we would like to seesomething similar imple-mented here in the States
The operation started in2003 in one of the areas ofCanada where AIDS wasspreading most rapidly Thegoal was simple provide theusers with sterile equip-ment and supervision so asto reduce the spread of HIVand reduce deaths fromoverdoses
There are 12 stationswhere users sit in front of awell-lit mirror while theyinject themselves Herethey will find all the materi-als needed for injectionHowever Insite does nothelp the users obtain any
drugs everyone who walksthrough the front doorsalready has drugs on themand nearly all of them areseasoned drug users
Nurses and other trainedmedical personnel are read-ily available to provideassistance in shooting up orto rush to provide emer-gency medical aid in case ofoverdose
Although Insite mayfacilitate drug use it in noway promotes it Locatedupstairs is Onsite an addic-tion treatment facilitywhere many users often endup going for help
Nothing like this has everbeen done in America Theclosest wersquove had are pro-grams that hand out freesterile needles to drugusers In New York thisprogram resulted in reduc-ing HIV infection from 4 to1 for every 100 drug users
In 2009 a three-yearstudy started in whichadults in the District ofColumbia and the Bronx areregularly tested for AIDSand then promptly treated iffound to have the virus Thetreatment has also beenshown to reduce the rate ofspreading the infection
Insite also has a verysimilar ldquotest and treatrdquo poli-
cy thatrsquos been very effectiveThose who take the anti-retroviral used to treatAIDS have been found to be90 percent less infective
All these practices aretruly good things and weneed to make communitiesmore aware of this deadlyhighly contagious diseaseItrsquos not enough to hand outpamphlets or broadcastpublic service announce-ments we need to help peo-ple help themselves
Drug users on the streetdonrsquot have the means toobtain clean supplies ontheir own because they areaddicted and theyrsquoll do any-thing to get a fix Whatrsquosworse is that dealers willoften sell used needlesclaiming theyrsquore sterile soitrsquos nearly impossible toknow what to trust
We donrsquot want to fueladdiction among drugusers We want to see therate of HIV infections low-ered across the country andwe believe the way to dothis is to provide supervisedinjection clinics such asInsite
Insite has had its legaltroubles and fair share ofpublic outrage but popularopinion can be sacrificed ifit means saving lives

UCFrsquos campus needsto quit mdash cold turkey
The ban on smokingshould extend to the side-walks crossways andcourtyards Tobaccoshouldnrsquot be allowed any-where at UCF
The current policyallows people to smokeanywhere outside as longas they arenrsquot within 15feet of an entrance I donrsquotbelieve this is enough
Irsquom fed up with having to hold mybreath as a smoker puffs out deadlytoxins that linger in my nose longafter theyrsquore gone Itrsquos a daily annoy-ance that I and plenty of other stu-dents must deal with while walkingto and from class With so many anti-smoking campaigns nationwide Idonrsquot think a ban such as this wouldbe inconceivable
Many campuses have already pro-hibited smoking indoors and out-doors No colleges or universities inArkansas and Pennsylvania allowanyone to smoke anywhere on cam-pus Educationrsquos new attitude towardsmoking on campus comes from a setof guidelines published by the Ameri-can College Health Association in2009 that all tobacco use is a ldquosignifi-cant health hazardrdquo
If only through force of inconven-ience it prevents smokers from get-ting their deadly fix near other peo-ple This protects non-smokerstraveling on campus from unwillinglyinhaling secondhand smoke Accord-ing to wwwcancerorg secondhandsmoke has more cancer-causingagents than the smoke inhaled by theperson dragging on the cigarette
Yes I do have a reason to bepissed when yoursquore smoking near tome Yoursquore killing me mdash literally Buteven if ldquoNo Smokingrdquo was chiseledinto every brick on every building atUCF I donrsquot think that would beenough This is an effort that needs tobe supported and enforced by the
communityEnforcers tend to be
slim on the university andcollege campuses thatclaim to be smoke-freeaccording to an articlerecently published onwwwInsideHigher-Edcom Smoking still hap-pens on these campusesbecause the motivation toquit isnrsquot there
Guidelines by theACHA seem to give a clear outline ofhow to implement a smoke-free sys-tem but they still donrsquot tell of a fool-hardy way to protect miles of opencampus from the people who aregoing to break these rules anyway
While a 100 percent campus-wideban on smoking would be ideal itrsquosproblematic Smoking isnrsquot illegal andwould require those who cannot kickthe habit to leave campus wheneverthey get the urge Thatrsquos why many ofthese campuses have created desig-nated smoking areas
Having these designated areaswould encourage an effort to elimi-nate tobacco on campus It wouldgive smokers a break and non-smok-ers a breather It would mean acleaner campus where cigarettebutts donrsquot litter the ground outsideIt would mean less harassment forsmokers about their habit As a non-smoker I wouldnrsquot mind walking afew more blocks in order to avoidone of these areas
The ACHA sets high standardsbut I believe our campus can meetthem with enough support Our uni-versity promotes healthy lifestylesand this ban on tobacco should beevidence of that rather than beingseen as a punishment
Should our campus quit coldturkey it would promote healthierlifestyles and cleaner environmentsfor students faculty and visitors Thismethod has been known to increasethe percentage of non-smokers incampus communities

So the other day I was -surfing the Web trying todetermine what Inceptionwas really about and I wasmind-blown to notice thatLeorsquos partner is played byJoseph Gordon-Levitt thekid from Angels in the Out-field
Then upon furtherinvestigation I was linkedto his other movies such as(500) Days of Summerdirected by Marc Webb who as itturns out is the same director in chargeof re-booting the Spider-Man film fran-chise Did you know the new Spider-Man is going to be played by that guyfrom The Social Network Not MarkZuckerberg but his roommate
Anyway my point is this I wentfrom Inception to Joseph Gordon-Levitt to Angels in the Outfield back toJoseph Gordon-Levitt to (500) Days ofSummer to Marc Webb to Spider-Manto Andrew Garfield to The Social Net-work all in about a matter of 10 min-utes Quick extremely simple and (forthe most part) reliable information
Those of you who have never heardof Wikipedia probably now think Irsquominsane
But if yoursquore one of the almost-300million daily Wikipedia viewers youmay be laughing quietly to yourself asIrsquom sure yoursquove had episodes of theseldquoWiki-tripsrdquo very similar to the one Ijust described
Yet aside from useless trivialmovie facts Wikipedia is also chock-full of millions of informative articleswhether itrsquos programming languagetax accounting or cognitive scienceThink about any subject and therersquosmost likely a Wikipedia page for it
This is exactly what co-foundersJimmy Wales and Larry Sanger had inmind when they decided to launch theonline encyclopedia in 2001 Theywanted to create an information baseso fast and so simple that you couldhave access to anything you desirewith just the click of a mouse
Obviously the two of them couldnrsquotwrite and update the more than 3 mil-lion articles by themselves so they setup their website in a way that anybodycan edit any particular page
Now this is where it gets messy On one hand you have the in-depth
insights of anyone in the world on anygiven subject constituting well-round-ed articles that tell both sides of the
story On the other hand you
have Wiki ldquovandalsrdquo whowill virtually tear apart arti-cles writing falsehoods andother totally irrelevant infor-mation just because theycan
Although the site hasplenty of editor-experts whofact-check additions to arti-cles and duly delete inap-propriate ones this flaw in
Wikipediarsquos system seriously restrictsthe site from being viewed as a legiti-mate academic reference tool
Now however Wikipedia is lookingto improve its role and usefulness inacademic settings especially withincolleges and universities
But should a site that is so inclinedtoward bias and misinformation everbe taken seriously
Not yet But eventually it very wellcould be
The way I look at it Wikipedia is afantastic starting source partiallybecause it provides links to othersources Like I mentioned itrsquos incredi-bly quick and easy to gather the infor-mation yoursquore looking for
But as with any source you need totake it with a grain of salt
As they say donrsquot believe every-thing you read Yoursquore not just going togo read one book at the library and callit research You need backup sourcesto confirm what yoursquore reading is true
The same goes for Wikipedia Ifyou find a piece of information youneed great Now go look for anothersource to back it up If yoursquoreresearching US history and it readsldquoThe first president of the UnitedStates was Eminemrdquo mdash itrsquos funny butdefinitely isnrsquot true
The site is also looking for otherways to increase its legitimacy as anacademic source such as having uni-versity professors ldquoflagrdquo certain articlesthat they think are appropriate or notappropriate for use While this solutionis far from perfect itrsquos a solid start
As of now I feel that Wikipedia hasa long way to go before it can be citedindependently in research
Even so when used correctly if youactually analyze and think criticallyabout the information being present-ed the site has some tremendouspotential and is a fine startingresource for whatever informationyou may wish to pursue
Wikipedia not readyfor the classroom yet

NOT SO SUPER FANS WITH-OUT SUPER BOWL SEATS SUE
DALLAS mdash Football fans have filed alawsuit accusing the NFL the DallasCowboys and team owner Jerry Jonesof deceiving hundreds of people whobought Super Bowl tickets and had noseats or got seats they felt wereinadequate
The federal lawsuit filed Tuesday inDallas alleges breach of contract fraudand deceptive sales practices
Spokesmen for the Cowboys and theNFL had no comment
The NFL had announced hours beforethe game that about 1250 temporaryseats were deemed unsafe and theleague scrambled to find new seats forabout 850 people The remaining 400were forced to watch the game on TVmonitors or from standing-room-onlyareas
The lawsuit alleges that Cowboysfans who paid $100000 per seat justfor the right to buy season tickets werenever told that their Super Bowl seatswould be temporary with obstructedviews The lawsuit says the team hasoffered no compensation forldquoillegitimate seatsrdquo
The NFL has said that the roughly 400fans have two options The first is aticket to next yearrsquos Super Bowl and acash payment of $2400 three timesthe face value of the ticket The secondis a ticket to any future Super Bowlalong with round-trip airfare and hotelaccommodations

The softball team has toset its standards high in thebeginning of its tenth sea-son
Thatrsquos what head coachRenee Luers-Gillispie saidbefore the Knights begintheir season on Friday inLos Angeles against UtahState and play against thedefending national cham-pion UCLA on Saturdaynight
Standards couldnrsquot getany higher
ldquoI think you have to facethe tougher teams early onto see what yoursquore made ofand that really does giveyou a chance to prepare forconference [play] and tous conference is every-thingrdquo Gillispie said
UCF went 36-23 lastseason beating top-rankedprograms Nebraska andAlabama and were 16-7 inConference USA TheKnights lost to East Caroli-na in the C-USA Champi-onship but still played inthe NCAA Tournament
ldquoWersquore back in the samemode we were in last yearrdquoGillispie said ldquoI have the
same fears the same con-cerns that we had last yearand you wonrsquot know untilyou play that first gamewhere exactly yoursquore goingto berdquo
Throughout the 10years that the softball teamhas been a varsity programGillispie has been the headcoach and the Knightshave come a long way
ldquoI think now that wersquovekind of set the stage we areexpected to do that everyyearrdquo Gillispie said
Gillispie said that theteam has proved that theirsuccesses havenrsquot beenflukes
ldquoOverall nationally Ithink wersquore being recog-nized for being a teamthatrsquos here nowrdquo Gillispiesaid
The Knightsrsquo top pitch-er last year Ashleigh Colegraduated after going 24-14The Knights are hopingthat pitchers Diana Rojasand Ashley Schmitt areable to help carry the teamto the NCAA Tournamentin Colersquos absence Rojashad some pitching experi-ence last season going 2-2while Schmitt went 2-1
Mary Huff and Lacey
Dinney junior transferswill also pitch for theKnights Dinney and theSpartanburg MethodistCollege softball team wentto Nationals her freshmanyear
Haley Douglas roundsup the pitching staff Dou-glas the only freshman onthe team is from Californiaand will have her entirefamily in the stands at thisweekendrsquos tournament
The rest of the Knightsare practicing two posi-tions each
ldquoWe are fightingthrough a few injuries earlyon which is toughrdquo
Gillispie said ldquoThatrsquos whywe have so many playersplaying so many differentpositions In case we dohave something go downwe have a backup in everypositionrdquo
Returning star TiffanyLane has been practicing atshortstop and in the out-field Lane made the All-C-USA First Team last sea-son and is on theAll-C-USA PreseasonTeam
Natalie Land whojoined Lane on the C-USAFirst Team will be playingsecond base and shortstopLand also made the ESPN
Academic All-District IIISecond Team and the C-USA All-Academic Team
ldquoAbby is a solid player Iwish I had nine of herrdquoGillispie said ldquoShersquos whatyou consider our trueleaderrdquo
Should a player getinjured Gillispie can rotatethe infield to fill positions
Offensively Gillispiesaid the Knights should beOK The Knights beatteams several times in thefall by 14 or 15 runs
ldquoOur fall was probablythe best fall offensive yearwersquove hadrdquo Gillispie saidldquoWe hadnrsquot had that in thepast we hadnrsquot had thatkind of offensive strengthrdquo
After a junior-collegeintensive fall season inwhich the Knights rolled tomultiple big wins the pres-sure starts early at thisweekendrsquos Stacy WinsbergMemorial Tournament
ldquoNow is the time to seewhen theyrsquore in that pres-sured situationrdquo Gillispiesaid ldquoWe always joke thatitrsquos not pressure itrsquos oppor-tunity When they havethat opportunity to reallyshine at the plate are theygoing to be able to do itrdquo

Recording artist and songwriter Joshua Radinbrought an eclectic performance to the Plaza Theatrein downtown Orlando on Feb 7 entertaining an eagercrowd of college and middle-aged fans
Radin performed a few tracks from his newestalbum released last September The Rock and the Tidebut primarily played songs such as ldquoCloserrdquo and ldquoIrsquodRather Be With Yourdquo from his first two albums
During the upbeat songs Radin encouraged thecrowd to stand up clap and sing along with his musicHe furthered this sense of performer-to-crowd intima-cy by providing emotional explanations for many ofhis songs
ldquoI love these venues that are at a small theatrebecause itrsquos so personalrdquo said Camila Ramon a stu-dent from Miami ldquoThe people out there are all aboutlooks and commercial stuff and hersquos [Radin] just truetalentrdquo
Bryan Young a sophomore at Winter Park HighSchool also enjoys Radinrsquos ability to emotionally cap-tivate his fans
ldquoAbout a year and a half ago I got pretty upsetbecause of a girl found Radin on YouTube and Irsquovebeen listening to him ever sincerdquo Young said ldquoWhenhe was playing I was in awe I enjoyed every secondof itrdquo
Radinrsquos commercial success began in 2004 whenhis song ldquoWinterrdquo was featured in an episode of the hittelevision series Scrubs He has since released threealbums and completed several tours
Radinrsquos set list varied from calm solo-acousticsongs to rock-style pieces that ended in fast movingimprovisations with the accompaniment of a fullband
Some of Radinrsquos loyal fans were not pleased to hearhim stray from his simple acoustic roots
Rich Hibner from Gainesville who has seen Radinin concert four times in the past six years voiced hisdiscontent with the new music
ldquoIrsquom not really enthusiastic about his shift into rockrsquonrsquo rollrdquo Hibner said ldquoI think his strength is that he cancreate powerful music with just his guitarrdquo
When interviewed Radin spoke candidly about theresponse of the Orlando crowd to his music
ldquoItrsquos always nice to look a standing ovation in thefacerdquo Radin said speaking of the audiencersquos encore
Radin said his musical success has been a slowclimb but worth it
ldquoItrsquos been a slow and steady buildrdquo Radin saidldquoEvery time you return to a town you hope a few morepeople will show up Thatrsquos how 30-year careers aremaderdquo

There are often timeswhen men strike out withtheir woman for missingan anniversary or maybeeven a birthday
Valentinersquos Day how-ever is everywhereThere is no way to missit no way to forget thedate and no excuse fordoing nothing
Unless the girl in yourlife despises the ldquoHall-mark-maderdquo day sheshould expect the guy toremember
Herersquos the thing menValentinersquos Day is yourticket to get corny Not alot of effort has to be putinto this day compared tosay an anniversary
The big teddy bear theflowers the chocolate areall acceptable especiallywith a new relationship
Extra importance mustbe paid however to thedelivery which I willexplain toward the endCheap corny gifts arefine but if you just handit to your lady with aldquohere you gordquo it comesacross as pure lazinesswhich you are of coursetrying to mask
Those of you guyswho are single but have aspecial Valentine in mindshould step up the cute-
ness factor Ask her out tosomething cute like iceskating or dinner at a nicerestaurant followed by anice walk Make it agroup thing if itrsquos morecomfortable but makesure you spend most ofthe time getting to knowher
A recent article forRedbook magazine byAaron Traister empha-sizes ldquoThe Real ReasonGuys Hate ValentinersquosDayrdquo In it he says menldquotolerate it because[women] seem to havesome unexplained affec-tion for itrdquo He adds thatthe holiday is ldquodesignedto make men feel likeinadequate insensitivefailuresrdquo
You should only feelthat way when compar-ing yourself to someoneelse when you should befocused on how she feelsabout you
Evan a business majorsaid Valentinersquos Dayldquoshould not be as big aholiday as it isrdquo but stillplans to do something onthe special day He saiddinner and flowers is usu-ally the way he goes onValentinersquos Day
His girlfriend of fourmonths Megan a busi-ness major mdash seemedequally as unexcitedabout the day
On Feb 6 they stillhad no plans but saidthey will probably plansomething a few daysbefore She agreed that anice dinner is usually theway to go
Most of you guys goout to dinner with yourspecial lady on regulardays Why not on Valen-tinersquos Day
And if you are on abudget why not cook herdinner This is somethingRobert Ponsonby amechanical engineeringmajor plans to do in thefuture I caught up withhim and his friends to seewhat single UCF guysthink of this holiday
Ponsonby has no planson choosing a Valentinethis year but said whenhe does he will be sure tomake an effort
ldquoIf itrsquos important to heritrsquos important to merdquo Pon-sonby said
As the seemingly lessexcited of the bunch TJLeach a mechanical engi-neering major had a sur-prisingly good take on it bysaying ldquoa long walk on thebeachrdquo will be his style
Clicheacute Sure But thatwill be the furthest thingfrom that womanrsquos mindwhen yoursquore walking handin hand with the sand inyour toes
As I mentioned itrsquos all inthe delivery When yoursquorehanding her a corny teddybear and typical flowershold her by the hand lookher in the eyes and tell hereverything that is goodabout ldquousrdquo
You donrsquot have to havean explanation for why yougave her a white gorillaholding a box of chocolatesjust let her know that shedeserves everythingincluding you Let herknow that her gift for theday and the rest of yourrelationship is your dedica-tion to her
If she is working duringValentinersquos Day send flow-ers to her job You can savemoney on delivery bydoing it yourself and mak-ing sure she doesnrsquot see youor simply handing it to herBuy a bunch from Publixand arrange it yourself Itrsquosless expensive and showsher you tried
Now ladies do not getupset with him for never
doing anything romantic ifyou have not reciprocatedthe sentiment
When I asked the guyswhat they would like inreturn (keeping it as cleanas possible) Leach said awoman to make him dinnerwould be a good sentimentespecially considering thathe would do it for them
Ponsonby preferred alaid back relaxing daytogether with his Valentine
At least one of theseseem doable right ladiesValentinersquos Day need not bea hassle It can be enjoyablefor both as long as youmake it a day of love likeany other with a specialtwist
Happy Valentinersquos DayKnights

f we told you to imaginea place where heroinaddicts can shoot up
openly without any fear ofbeing arrested yoursquod proba-bly twerk your head and askus what wersquore on
Oddly enough such aplace exists in VancouverBritish Columbia
Insite is a clinic that pro-vides addicts with free nee-dles in an effort to stop thespread of HIV Seventy-fivepercent of those who usethe facility change theirinjection behavior for thebetter
Itrsquos been successful thusfar and we would like to seesomething similar imple-mented here in the States
The operation started in2003 in one of the areas ofCanada where AIDS wasspreading most rapidly Thegoal was simple provide theusers with sterile equip-ment and supervision so asto reduce the spread of HIVand reduce deaths fromoverdoses
There are 12 stationswhere users sit in front of awell-lit mirror while theyinject themselves Herethey will find all the materi-als needed for injectionHowever Insite does nothelp the users obtain any
drugs everyone who walksthrough the front doorsalready has drugs on themand nearly all of them areseasoned drug users
Nurses and other trainedmedical personnel are read-ily available to provideassistance in shooting up orto rush to provide emer-gency medical aid in case ofoverdose
Although Insite mayfacilitate drug use it in noway promotes it Locatedupstairs is Onsite an addic-tion treatment facilitywhere many users often endup going for help
Nothing like this has everbeen done in America Theclosest wersquove had are pro-grams that hand out freesterile needles to drugusers In New York thisprogram resulted in reduc-ing HIV infection from 4 to1 for every 100 drug users
In 2009 a three-yearstudy started in whichadults in the District ofColumbia and the Bronx areregularly tested for AIDSand then promptly treated iffound to have the virus Thetreatment has also beenshown to reduce the rate ofspreading the infection
Insite also has a verysimilar ldquotest and treatrdquo poli-
cy thatrsquos been very effectiveThose who take the anti-retroviral used to treatAIDS have been found to be90 percent less infective
All these practices aretruly good things and weneed to make communitiesmore aware of this deadlyhighly contagious diseaseItrsquos not enough to hand outpamphlets or broadcastpublic service announce-ments we need to help peo-ple help themselves
Drug users on the streetdonrsquot have the means toobtain clean supplies ontheir own because they areaddicted and theyrsquoll do any-thing to get a fix Whatrsquosworse is that dealers willoften sell used needlesclaiming theyrsquore sterile soitrsquos nearly impossible toknow what to trust
We donrsquot want to fueladdiction among drugusers We want to see therate of HIV infections low-ered across the country andwe believe the way to dothis is to provide supervisedinjection clinics such asInsite
Insite has had its legaltroubles and fair share ofpublic outrage but popularopinion can be sacrificed ifit means saving lives

UCFrsquos campus needsto quit mdash cold turkey
The ban on smokingshould extend to the side-walks crossways andcourtyards Tobaccoshouldnrsquot be allowed any-where at UCF
The current policyallows people to smokeanywhere outside as longas they arenrsquot within 15feet of an entrance I donrsquotbelieve this is enough
Irsquom fed up with having to hold mybreath as a smoker puffs out deadlytoxins that linger in my nose longafter theyrsquore gone Itrsquos a daily annoy-ance that I and plenty of other stu-dents must deal with while walkingto and from class With so many anti-smoking campaigns nationwide Idonrsquot think a ban such as this wouldbe inconceivable
Many campuses have already pro-hibited smoking indoors and out-doors No colleges or universities inArkansas and Pennsylvania allowanyone to smoke anywhere on cam-pus Educationrsquos new attitude towardsmoking on campus comes from a setof guidelines published by the Ameri-can College Health Association in2009 that all tobacco use is a ldquosignifi-cant health hazardrdquo
If only through force of inconven-ience it prevents smokers from get-ting their deadly fix near other peo-ple This protects non-smokerstraveling on campus from unwillinglyinhaling secondhand smoke Accord-ing to wwwcancerorg secondhandsmoke has more cancer-causingagents than the smoke inhaled by theperson dragging on the cigarette
Yes I do have a reason to bepissed when yoursquore smoking near tome Yoursquore killing me mdash literally Buteven if ldquoNo Smokingrdquo was chiseledinto every brick on every building atUCF I donrsquot think that would beenough This is an effort that needs tobe supported and enforced by the
communityEnforcers tend to be
slim on the university andcollege campuses thatclaim to be smoke-freeaccording to an articlerecently published onwwwInsideHigher-Edcom Smoking still hap-pens on these campusesbecause the motivation toquit isnrsquot there
Guidelines by theACHA seem to give a clear outline ofhow to implement a smoke-free sys-tem but they still donrsquot tell of a fool-hardy way to protect miles of opencampus from the people who aregoing to break these rules anyway
While a 100 percent campus-wideban on smoking would be ideal itrsquosproblematic Smoking isnrsquot illegal andwould require those who cannot kickthe habit to leave campus wheneverthey get the urge Thatrsquos why many ofthese campuses have created desig-nated smoking areas
Having these designated areaswould encourage an effort to elimi-nate tobacco on campus It wouldgive smokers a break and non-smok-ers a breather It would mean acleaner campus where cigarettebutts donrsquot litter the ground outsideIt would mean less harassment forsmokers about their habit As a non-smoker I wouldnrsquot mind walking afew more blocks in order to avoidone of these areas
The ACHA sets high standardsbut I believe our campus can meetthem with enough support Our uni-versity promotes healthy lifestylesand this ban on tobacco should beevidence of that rather than beingseen as a punishment
Should our campus quit coldturkey it would promote healthierlifestyles and cleaner environmentsfor students faculty and visitors Thismethod has been known to increasethe percentage of non-smokers incampus communities

NATE BEELER THE WASHINGTON EXAMINER
So the other day I was -surfing the Web trying todetermine what Inceptionwas really about and I wasmind-blown to notice thatLeorsquos partner is played byJoseph Gordon-Levitt thekid from Angels in the Out-field
Then upon furtherinvestigation I was linkedto his other movies such as(500) Days of Summerdirected by Marc Webb who as itturns out is the same director in chargeof re-booting the Spider-Man film fran-chise Did you know the new Spider-Man is going to be played by that guyfrom The Social Network Not MarkZuckerberg but his roommate
Anyway my point is this I wentfrom Inception to Joseph Gordon-Levitt to Angels in the Outfield back toJoseph Gordon-Levitt to (500) Days ofSummer to Marc Webb to Spider-Manto Andrew Garfield to The Social Net-work all in about a matter of 10 min-utes Quick extremely simple and (forthe most part) reliable information
Those of you who have never heardof Wikipedia probably now think Irsquominsane
But if yoursquore one of the almost-300million daily Wikipedia viewers youmay be laughing quietly to yourself asIrsquom sure yoursquove had episodes of theseldquoWiki-tripsrdquo very similar to the one Ijust described
Yet aside from useless trivialmovie facts Wikipedia is also chock-full of millions of informative articleswhether itrsquos programming languagetax accounting or cognitive scienceThink about any subject and therersquosmost likely a Wikipedia page for it
This is exactly what co-foundersJimmy Wales and Larry Sanger had inmind when they decided to launch theonline encyclopedia in 2001 Theywanted to create an information baseso fast and so simple that you couldhave access to anything you desirewith just the click of a mouse
Obviously the two of them couldnrsquotwrite and update the more than 3 mil-lion articles by themselves so they setup their website in a way that anybodycan edit any particular page
Now this is where it gets messy On one hand you have the in-depth
insights of anyone in the world on anygiven subject constituting well-round-ed articles that tell both sides of the
story On the other hand you
have Wiki ldquovandalsrdquo whowill virtually tear apart arti-cles writing falsehoods andother totally irrelevant infor-mation just because theycan
Although the site hasplenty of editor-experts whofact-check additions to arti-cles and duly delete inap-propriate ones this flaw in
Wikipediarsquos system seriously restrictsthe site from being viewed as a legiti-mate academic reference tool
Now however Wikipedia is lookingto improve its role and usefulness inacademic settings especially withincolleges and universities
But should a site that is so inclinedtoward bias and misinformation everbe taken seriously
Not yet But eventually it very wellcould be
The way I look at it Wikipedia is afantastic starting source partiallybecause it provides links to othersources Like I mentioned itrsquos incredi-bly quick and easy to gather the infor-mation yoursquore looking for
But as with any source you need totake it with a grain of salt
As they say donrsquot believe every-thing you read Yoursquore not just going togo read one book at the library and callit research You need backup sourcesto confirm what yoursquore reading is true
The same goes for Wikipedia Ifyou find a piece of information youneed great Now go look for anothersource to back it up If yoursquoreresearching US history and it readsldquoThe first president of the UnitedStates was Eminemrdquo mdash itrsquos funny butdefinitely isnrsquot true
The site is also looking for otherways to increase its legitimacy as anacademic source such as having uni-versity professors ldquoflagrdquo certain articlesthat they think are appropriate or notappropriate for use While this solutionis far from perfect itrsquos a solid start
As of now I feel that Wikipedia hasa long way to go before it can be citedindependently in research
Even so when used correctly if youactually analyze and think criticallyabout the information being present-ed the site has some tremendouspotential and is a fine startingresource for whatever informationyou may wish to pursue
Wikipedia not readyfor the classroom yet

Recording artist and songwriter Joshua Radinbrought an eclectic performance to the Plaza Theatrein downtown Orlando on Feb 7 entertaining an eagercrowd of college and middle-aged fans
Radin performed a few tracks from his newestalbum released last September The Rock and the Tidebut primarily played songs such as ldquoCloserrdquo and ldquoIrsquodRather Be With Yourdquo from his first two albums
During the upbeat songs Radin encouraged thecrowd to stand up clap and sing along with his musicHe furthered this sense of performer-to-crowd intima-cy by providing emotional explanations for many ofhis songs
ldquoI love these venues that are at a small theatrebecause itrsquos so personalrdquo said Camila Ramon a stu-dent from Miami ldquoThe people out there are all aboutlooks and commercial stuff and hersquos [Radin] just truetalentrdquo
Bryan Young a sophomore at Winter Park HighSchool also enjoys Radinrsquos ability to emotionally cap-tivate his fans
ldquoAbout a year and a half ago I got pretty upsetbecause of a girl found Radin on YouTube and Irsquovebeen listening to him ever sincerdquo Young said ldquoWhenhe was playing I was in awe I enjoyed every secondof itrdquo
Radinrsquos commercial success began in 2004 whenhis song ldquoWinterrdquo was featured in an episode of the hittelevision series Scrubs He has since released threealbums and completed several tours
Radinrsquos set list varied from calm solo-acousticsongs to rock-style pieces that ended in fast movingimprovisations with the accompaniment of a fullband
Some of Radinrsquos loyal fans were not pleased to hearhim stray from his simple acoustic roots
Rich Hibner from Gainesville who has seen Radinin concert four times in the past six years voiced hisdiscontent with the new music

SEX amp THE CAMPUS
There are often timeswhen men strike out withtheir woman for missingan anniversary or maybeeven a birthday
Valentinersquos Day how-ever is everywhereThere is no way to missit no way to forget thedate and no excuse fordoing nothing
Unless the girl in yourlife despises the ldquoHall-mark-maderdquo day sheshould expect the guy toremember
Herersquos the thing menValentinersquos Day is yourticket to get corny Not alot of effort has to be putinto this day compared tosay an anniversary
The big teddy bear theflowers the chocolate areall acceptable especiallywith a new relationship
Extra importance mustbe paid however to thedelivery which I willexplain toward the endCheap corny gifts arefine but if you just handit to your lady with aldquohere you gordquo it comesacross as pure lazinesswhich you are of coursetrying to mask
Those of you guyswho are single but have aspecial Valentine in mindshould step up the cute-
ness factor Ask her out tosomething cute like iceskating or dinner at a nicerestaurant followed by anice walk Make it agroup thing if itrsquos morecomfortable but makesure you spend most ofthe time getting to knowher
A recent article forRedbook magazine byAaron Traister empha-sizes ldquoThe Real ReasonGuys Hate ValentinersquosDayrdquo In it he says menldquotolerate it because[women] seem to havesome unexplained affec-tion for itrdquo He adds thatthe holiday is ldquodesignedto make men feel likeinadequate insensitivefailuresrdquo
You should only feelthat way when compar-ing yourself to someoneelse when you should befocused on how she feelsabout you
Evan a business majorsaid Valentinersquos Dayldquoshould not be as big aholiday as it isrdquo but stillplans to do something onthe special day He saiddinner and flowers is usu-ally the way he goes onValentinersquos Day
His girlfriend of fourmonths Megan a busi-ness major mdash seemedequally as unexcitedabout the day
On Feb 6 they stillhad no plans but saidthey will probably plansomething a few daysbefore She agreed that anice dinner is usually theway to go
Most of you guys goout to dinner with yourspecial lady on regulardays Why not on Valen-tinersquos Day
And if you are on abudget why not cook herdinner This is somethingRobert Ponsonby amechanical engineeringmajor plans to do in thefuture I caught up withhim and his friends to seewhat single UCF guysthink of this holiday
Ponsonby has no planson choosing a Valentinethis year but said whenhe does he will be sure tomake an effort
ldquoIf itrsquos important to heritrsquos important to merdquo Pon-sonby said
As the seemingly lessexcited of the bunch TJLeach a mechanical engi-neering major had a sur-prisingly good take on it bysaying ldquoa long walk on thebeachrdquo will be his style
Clicheacute Sure But thatwill be the furthest thingfrom that womanrsquos mindwhen yoursquore walking handin hand with the sand inyour toes
As I mentioned itrsquos all inthe delivery When yoursquorehanding her a corny teddybear and typical flowershold her by the hand lookher in the eyes and tell hereverything that is goodabout ldquousrdquo
You donrsquot have to havean explanation for why yougave her a white gorillaholding a box of chocolatesjust let her know that shedeserves everythingincluding you Let herknow that her gift for theday and the rest of yourrelationship is your dedica-tion to her
If she is working duringValentinersquos Day send flow-ers to her job You can savemoney on delivery bydoing it yourself and mak-ing sure she doesnrsquot see youor simply handing it to herBuy a bunch from Publixand arrange it yourself Itrsquosless expensive and showsher you tried
Now ladies do not getupset with him for never
doing anything romantic ifyou have not reciprocatedthe sentiment
When I asked the guyswhat they would like inreturn (keeping it as cleanas possible) Leach said awoman to make him dinnerwould be a good sentimentespecially considering thathe would do it for them
Ponsonby preferred alaid back relaxing daytogether with his Valentine
At least one of theseseem doable right ladiesValentinersquos Day need not bea hassle It can be enjoyablefor both as long as youmake it a day of love likeany other with a specialtwist
Happy Valentinersquos DayKnights

f we told you to imaginea place where heroinaddicts can shoot up
openly without any fear ofbeing arrested yoursquod proba-bly twerk your head and askus what wersquore on
Oddly enough such aplace exists in VancouverBritish Columbia
Insite is a clinic that pro-vides addicts with free nee-dles in an effort to stop thespread of HIV Seventy-fivepercent of those who usethe facility change theirinjection behavior for thebetter
Itrsquos been successful thusfar and we would like to seesomething similar imple-mented here in the States
The operation started in2003 in one of the areas ofCanada where AIDS wasspreading most rapidly Thegoal was simple provide theusers with sterile equip-ment and supervision so asto reduce the spread of HIVand reduce deaths fromoverdoses
There are 12 stationswhere users sit in front of awell-lit mirror while theyinject themselves Herethey will find all the materi-als needed for injectionHowever Insite does nothelp the users obtain any
drugs everyone who walksthrough the front doorsalready has drugs on themand nearly all of them areseasoned drug users
Nurses and other trainedmedical personnel are read-ily available to provideassistance in shooting up orto rush to provide emer-gency medical aid in case ofoverdose
Although Insite mayfacilitate drug use it in noway promotes it Locatedupstairs is Onsite an addic-tion treatment facilitywhere many users often endup going for help
Nothing like this has everbeen done in America Theclosest wersquove had are pro-grams that hand out freesterile needles to drugusers In New York thisprogram resulted in reduc-ing HIV infection from 4 to1 for every 100 drug users
In 2009 a three-yearstudy started in whichadults in the District ofColumbia and the Bronx areregularly tested for AIDSand then promptly treated iffound to have the virus Thetreatment has also beenshown to reduce the rate ofspreading the infection
Insite also has a verysimilar ldquotest and treatrdquo poli-
cy thatrsquos been very effectiveThose who take the anti-retroviral used to treatAIDS have been found to be90 percent less infective
All these practices aretruly good things and weneed to make communitiesmore aware of this deadlyhighly contagious diseaseItrsquos not enough to hand outpamphlets or broadcastpublic service announce-ments we need to help peo-ple help themselves
Drug users on the streetdonrsquot have the means toobtain clean supplies ontheir own because they areaddicted and theyrsquoll do any-thing to get a fix Whatrsquosworse is that dealers willoften sell used needlesclaiming theyrsquore sterile soitrsquos nearly impossible toknow what to trust
We donrsquot want to fueladdiction among drugusers We want to see therate of HIV infections low-ered across the country andwe believe the way to dothis is to provide supervisedinjection clinics such asInsite
Insite has had its legaltroubles and fair share ofpublic outrage but popularopinion can be sacrificed ifit means saving lives
OUR STANCE
Clinic providessafe drug use
UCFrsquos campus needsto quit mdash cold turkey
The ban on smokingshould extend to the side-walks crossways andcourtyards Tobaccoshouldnrsquot be allowed any-where at UCF
The current policyallows people to smokeanywhere outside as longas they arenrsquot within 15feet of an entrance I donrsquotbelieve this is enough
Irsquom fed up with having to hold mybreath as a smoker puffs out deadlytoxins that linger in my nose longafter theyrsquore gone Itrsquos a daily annoy-ance that I and plenty of other stu-dents must deal with while walkingto and from class With so many anti-smoking campaigns nationwide Idonrsquot think a ban such as this wouldbe inconceivable
Many campuses have already pro-hibited smoking indoors and out-doors No colleges or universities inArkansas and Pennsylvania allowanyone to smoke anywhere on cam-pus Educationrsquos new attitude towardsmoking on campus comes from a setof guidelines published by the Ameri-can College Health Association in2009 that all tobacco use is a ldquosignifi-cant health hazardrdquo
If only through force of inconven-ience it prevents smokers from get-ting their deadly fix near other peo-ple This protects non-smokerstraveling on campus from unwillinglyinhaling secondhand smoke Accord-ing to wwwcancerorg secondhandsmoke has more cancer-causingagents than the smoke inhaled by theperson dragging on the cigarette
Yes I do have a reason to bepissed when yoursquore smoking near tome Yoursquore killing me mdash literally Buteven if ldquoNo Smokingrdquo was chiseledinto every brick on every building atUCF I donrsquot think that would beenough This is an effort that needs tobe supported and enforced by the
communityEnforcers tend to be
slim on the university andcollege campuses thatclaim to be smoke-freeaccording to an articlerecently published onwwwInsideHigher-Edcom Smoking still hap-pens on these campusesbecause the motivation toquit isnrsquot there
Guidelines by theACHA seem to give a clear outline ofhow to implement a smoke-free sys-tem but they still donrsquot tell of a fool-hardy way to protect miles of opencampus from the people who aregoing to break these rules anyway
While a 100 percent campus-wideban on smoking would be ideal itrsquosproblematic Smoking isnrsquot illegal andwould require those who cannot kickthe habit to leave campus wheneverthey get the urge Thatrsquos why many ofthese campuses have created desig-nated smoking areas
Having these designated areaswould encourage an effort to elimi-nate tobacco on campus It wouldgive smokers a break and non-smok-ers a breather It would mean acleaner campus where cigarettebutts donrsquot litter the ground outsideIt would mean less harassment forsmokers about their habit As a non-smoker I wouldnrsquot mind walking afew more blocks in order to avoidone of these areas
The ACHA sets high standardsbut I believe our campus can meetthem with enough support Our uni-versity promotes healthy lifestylesand this ban on tobacco should beevidence of that rather than beingseen as a punishment
Should our campus quit coldturkey it would promote healthierlifestyles and cleaner environmentsfor students faculty and visitors Thismethod has been known to increasethe percentage of non-smokers incampus communities

NATE BEELER THE WASHINGTON EXAMINER
So the other day I was -surfing the Web trying todetermine what Inceptionwas really about and I wasmind-blown to notice thatLeorsquos partner is played byJoseph Gordon-Levitt thekid from Angels in the Out-field
Then upon furtherinvestigation I was linkedto his other movies such as(500) Days of Summerdirected by Marc Webb who as itturns out is the same director in chargeof re-booting the Spider-Man film fran-chise Did you know the new Spider-Man is going to be played by that guyfrom The Social Network Not MarkZuckerberg but his roommate
Anyway my point is this I wentfrom Inception to Joseph Gordon-Levitt to Angels in the Outfield back toJoseph Gordon-Levitt to (500) Days ofSummer to Marc Webb to Spider-Manto Andrew Garfield to The Social Net-work all in about a matter of 10 min-utes Quick extremely simple and (forthe most part) reliable information
Those of you who have never heardof Wikipedia probably now think Irsquominsane
But if yoursquore one of the almost-300million daily Wikipedia viewers youmay be laughing quietly to yourself asIrsquom sure yoursquove had episodes of theseldquoWiki-tripsrdquo very similar to the one Ijust described
Yet aside from useless trivialmovie facts Wikipedia is also chock-full of millions of informative articleswhether itrsquos programming languagetax accounting or cognitive scienceThink about any subject and therersquosmost likely a Wikipedia page for it
This is exactly what co-foundersJimmy Wales and Larry Sanger had inmind when they decided to launch theonline encyclopedia in 2001 Theywanted to create an information baseso fast and so simple that you couldhave access to anything you desirewith just the click of a mouse
Obviously the two of them couldnrsquotwrite and update the more than 3 mil-lion articles by themselves so they setup their website in a way that anybodycan edit any particular page
Now this is where it gets messy On one hand you have the in-depth
insights of anyone in the world on anygiven subject constituting well-round-ed articles that tell both sides of the
story On the other hand you
have Wiki ldquovandalsrdquo whowill virtually tear apart arti-cles writing falsehoods andother totally irrelevant infor-mation just because theycan
Although the site hasplenty of editor-experts whofact-check additions to arti-cles and duly delete inap-propriate ones this flaw in
Wikipediarsquos system seriously restrictsthe site from being viewed as a legiti-mate academic reference tool
Now however Wikipedia is lookingto improve its role and usefulness inacademic settings especially withincolleges and universities
But should a site that is so inclinedtoward bias and misinformation everbe taken seriously
Not yet But eventually it very wellcould be
The way I look at it Wikipedia is afantastic starting source partiallybecause it provides links to othersources Like I mentioned itrsquos incredi-bly quick and easy to gather the infor-mation yoursquore looking for
But as with any source you need totake it with a grain of salt
As they say donrsquot believe every-thing you read Yoursquore not just going togo read one book at the library and callit research You need backup sourcesto confirm what yoursquore reading is true
The same goes for Wikipedia Ifyou find a piece of information youneed great Now go look for anothersource to back it up If yoursquoreresearching US history and it readsldquoThe first president of the UnitedStates was Eminemrdquo mdash itrsquos funny butdefinitely isnrsquot true
The site is also looking for otherways to increase its legitimacy as anacademic source such as having uni-versity professors ldquoflagrdquo certain articlesthat they think are appropriate or notappropriate for use While this solutionis far from perfect itrsquos a solid start
As of now I feel that Wikipedia hasa long way to go before it can be citedindependently in research
Even so when used correctly if youactually analyze and think criticallyabout the information being present-ed the site has some tremendouspotential and is a fine startingresource for whatever informationyou may wish to pursue
Wikipedia not readyfor the classroom yet

Recording artist and songwriter Joshua Radinbrought an eclectic performance to the Plaza Theatrein downtown Orlando on Feb 7 entertaining an eagercrowd of college and middle-aged fans
Radin performed a few tracks from his newestalbum released last September The Rock and the Tidebut primarily played songs such as ldquoCloserrdquo and ldquoIrsquodRather Be With Yourdquo from his first two albums
During the upbeat songs Radin encouraged thecrowd to stand up clap and sing along with his musicHe furthered this sense of performer-to-crowd intima-cy by providing emotional explanations for many ofhis songs
ldquoI love these venues that are at a small theatrebecause itrsquos so personalrdquo said Camila Ramon a stu-dent from Miami ldquoThe people out there are all aboutlooks and commercial stuff and hersquos [Radin] just truetalentrdquo
Bryan Young a sophomore at Winter Park HighSchool also enjoys Radinrsquos ability to emotionally cap-tivate his fans
ldquoAbout a year and a half ago I got pretty upsetbecause of a girl found Radin on YouTube and Irsquovebeen listening to him ever sincerdquo Young said ldquoWhenhe was playing I was in awe I enjoyed every secondof itrdquo
Radinrsquos commercial success began in 2004 whenhis song ldquoWinterrdquo was featured in an episode of the hittelevision series Scrubs He has since released threealbums and completed several tours
Radinrsquos set list varied from calm solo-acousticsongs to rock-style pieces that ended in fast movingimprovisations with the accompaniment of a fullband
Some of Radinrsquos loyal fans were not pleased to hearhim stray from his simple acoustic roots
Rich Hibner from Gainesville who has seen Radinin concert four times in the past six years voiced hisdiscontent with the new music
ldquoIrsquom not really enthusiastic about his shift into rockrsquonrsquo rollrdquo Hibner said ldquoI think his strength is that he cancreate powerful music with just his guitarrdquo
When interviewed Radin spoke candidly about theresponse of the Orlando crowd to his music
ldquoItrsquos always nice to look a standing ovation in thefacerdquo Radin said speaking of the audiencersquos encore
Radin said his musical success has been a slowclimb but worth it
ldquoItrsquos been a slow and steady buildrdquo Radin saidldquoEvery time you return to a town you hope a few morepeople will show up Thatrsquos how 30-year careers aremaderdquo

A recent article forRedbook magazine byAaron Traister empha-sizes ldquoThe Real ReasonGuys Hate ValentinersquosDayrdquo In it he says menldquotolerate it because[women] seem to havesome unexplained affec-tion for itrdquo He adds thatthe holiday is ldquodesignedto make men feel likeinadequate insensitivefailuresrdquo
You should only feelthat way when compar-ing yourself to someoneelse when you should befocused on how she feelsabout you
Evan a business majorsaid Valentinersquos Dayldquoshould not be as big aholiday as it isrdquo but stillplans to do something onthe special day He saiddinner and flowers is usu-ally the way he goes onValentinersquos Day
His girlfriend of fourmonths Megan a busi-ness major mdash seemedequally as unexcitedabout the day
On Feb 6 they stillhad no plans but saidthey will probably plansomething a few daysbefore She agreed that anice dinner is usually theway to go
Most of you guys goout to dinner with yourspecial lady on regulardays Why not on Valen-tinersquos Day
And if you are on abudget why not cook herdinner This is somethingRobert Ponsonby amechanical engineeringmajor plans to do in thefuture I caught up withhim and his friends to seewhat single UCF guysthink of this holiday
Ponsonby has no planson choosing a Valentinethis year but said whenhe does he will be sure tomake an effort
ldquoIf itrsquos important to heritrsquos important to merdquo Pon-sonby said
As the seemingly lessexcited of the bunch TJLeach a mechanical engi-neering major had a sur-prisingly good take on it bysaying ldquoa long walk on thebeachrdquo will be his style
Clicheacute Sure But thatwill be the furthest thingfrom that womanrsquos mindwhen yoursquore walking handin hand with the sand inyour toes
As I mentioned itrsquos all inthe delivery When yoursquorehanding her a corny teddybear and typical flowershold her by the hand lookher in the eyes and tell hereverything that is goodabout ldquousrdquo
You donrsquot have to havean explanation for why yougave her a white gorillaholding a box of chocolatesjust let her know that shedeserves everythingincluding you Let herknow that her gift for theday and the rest of yourrelationship is your dedica-tion to her
If she is working duringValentinersquos Day send flow-ers to her job You can savemoney on delivery bydoing it yourself and mak-ing sure she doesnrsquot see youor simply handing it to herBuy a bunch from Publixand arrange it yourself Itrsquosless expensive and showsher you tried
Now ladies do not getupset with him for never
doing anything romantic ifyou have not reciprocatedthe sentiment
When I asked the guyswhat they would like inreturn (keeping it as cleanas possible) Leach said awoman to make him dinnerwould be a good sentimentespecially considering thathe would do it for them
Ponsonby preferred alaid back relaxing daytogether with his Valentine
At least one of theseseem doable right ladiesValentinersquos Day need not bea hassle It can be enjoyablefor both as long as youmake it a day of love likeany other with a specialtwist

f we told you to imaginea place where heroinaddicts can shoot up
openly without any fear ofbeing arrested yoursquod proba-bly twerk your head and askus what wersquore on
Oddly enough such aplace exists in VancouverBritish Columbia
Insite is a clinic that pro-vides addicts with free nee-dles in an effort to stop thespread of HIV Seventy-fivepercent of those who usethe facility change theirinjection behavior for thebetter
Itrsquos been successful thusfar and we would like to seesomething similar imple-mented here in the States
The operation started in2003 in one of the areas ofCanada where AIDS wasspreading most rapidly Thegoal was simple provide theusers with sterile equip-ment and supervision so asto reduce the spread of HIVand reduce deaths fromoverdoses
There are 12 stationswhere users sit in front of awell-lit mirror while theyinject themselves Herethey will find all the materi-als needed for injectionHowever Insite does nothelp the users obtain any
drugs everyone who walksthrough the front doorsalready has drugs on themand nearly all of them areseasoned drug users
Nurses and other trainedmedical personnel are read-ily available to provideassistance in shooting up orto rush to provide emer-gency medical aid in case ofoverdose
Although Insite mayfacilitate drug use it in noway promotes it Locatedupstairs is Onsite an addic-tion treatment facilitywhere many users often endup going for help
Nothing like this has everbeen done in America Theclosest wersquove had are pro-grams that hand out freesterile needles to drugusers In New York thisprogram resulted in reduc-ing HIV infection from 4 to1 for every 100 drug users
In 2009 a three-yearstudy started in whichadults in the District ofColumbia and the Bronx areregularly tested for AIDSand then promptly treated iffound to have the virus Thetreatment has also beenshown to reduce the rate ofspreading the infection
Insite also has a verysimilar ldquotest and treatrdquo poli-
cy thatrsquos been very effectiveThose who take the anti-retroviral used to treatAIDS have been found to be90 percent less infective
All these practices aretruly good things and weneed to make communitiesmore aware of this deadlyhighly contagious diseaseItrsquos not enough to hand outpamphlets or broadcastpublic service announce-ments we need to help peo-ple help themselves
Drug users on the streetdonrsquot have the means toobtain clean supplies ontheir own because they areaddicted and theyrsquoll do any-thing to get a fix Whatrsquosworse is that dealers willoften sell used needlesclaiming theyrsquore sterile soitrsquos nearly impossible toknow what to trust
We donrsquot want to fueladdiction among drugusers We want to see therate of HIV infections low-ered across the country andwe believe the way to dothis is to provide supervisedinjection clinics such asInsite
Insite has had its legaltroubles and fair share ofpublic outrage but popularopinion can be sacrificed ifit means saving lives
OUR STANCE
Clinic providessafe drug use
UCFrsquos campus needsto quit mdash cold turkey
The ban on smokingshould extend to the side-walks crossways andcourtyards Tobaccoshouldnrsquot be allowed any-where at UCF
The current policyallows people to smokeanywhere outside as longas they arenrsquot within 15feet of an entrance I donrsquotbelieve this is enough
Irsquom fed up with having to hold mybreath as a smoker puffs out deadlytoxins that linger in my nose longafter theyrsquore gone Itrsquos a daily annoy-ance that I and plenty of other stu-dents must deal with while walkingto and from class With so many anti-smoking campaigns nationwide Idonrsquot think a ban such as this wouldbe inconceivable
Many campuses have already pro-hibited smoking indoors and out-doors No colleges or universities inArkansas and Pennsylvania allowanyone to smoke anywhere on cam-pus Educationrsquos new attitude towardsmoking on campus comes from a setof guidelines published by the Ameri-can College Health Association in2009 that all tobacco use is a ldquosignifi-cant health hazardrdquo
If only through force of inconven-ience it prevents smokers from get-ting their deadly fix near other peo-ple This protects non-smokerstraveling on campus from unwillinglyinhaling secondhand smoke Accord-ing to wwwcancerorg secondhandsmoke has more cancer-causingagents than the smoke inhaled by theperson dragging on the cigarette
Yes I do have a reason to bepissed when yoursquore smoking near tome Yoursquore killing me mdash literally Buteven if ldquoNo Smokingrdquo was chiseledinto every brick on every building atUCF I donrsquot think that would beenough This is an effort that needs tobe supported and enforced by the
communityEnforcers tend to be
slim on the university andcollege campuses thatclaim to be smoke-freeaccording to an articlerecently published onwwwInsideHigher-Edcom Smoking still hap-pens on these campusesbecause the motivation toquit isnrsquot there
Guidelines by theACHA seem to give a clear outline ofhow to implement a smoke-free sys-tem but they still donrsquot tell of a fool-hardy way to protect miles of opencampus from the people who aregoing to break these rules anyway
While a 100 percent campus-wideban on smoking would be ideal itrsquosproblematic Smoking isnrsquot illegal andwould require those who cannot kickthe habit to leave campus wheneverthey get the urge Thatrsquos why many ofthese campuses have created desig-nated smoking areas
Having these designated areaswould encourage an effort to elimi-nate tobacco on campus It wouldgive smokers a break and non-smok-ers a breather It would mean acleaner campus where cigarettebutts donrsquot litter the ground outsideIt would mean less harassment forsmokers about their habit As a non-smoker I wouldnrsquot mind walking afew more blocks in order to avoidone of these areas
The ACHA sets high standardsbut I believe our campus can meetthem with enough support Our uni-versity promotes healthy lifestylesand this ban on tobacco should beevidence of that rather than beingseen as a punishment
Should our campus quit coldturkey it would promote healthierlifestyles and cleaner environmentsfor students faculty and visitors Thismethod has been known to increasethe percentage of non-smokers incampus communities

NATE BEELER THE WASHINGTON EXAMINER
So the other day I was -surfing the Web trying todetermine what Inceptionwas really about and I wasmind-blown to notice thatLeorsquos partner is played byJoseph Gordon-Levitt thekid from Angels in the Out-field
Then upon furtherinvestigation I was linkedto his other movies such as(500) Days of Summerdirected by Marc Webb who as itturns out is the same director in chargeof re-booting the Spider-Man film fran-chise Did you know the new Spider-Man is going to be played by that guyfrom The Social Network Not MarkZuckerberg but his roommate
Anyway my point is this I wentfrom Inception to Joseph Gordon-Levitt to Angels in the Outfield back toJoseph Gordon-Levitt to (500) Days ofSummer to Marc Webb to Spider-Manto Andrew Garfield to The Social Net-work all in about a matter of 10 min-utes Quick extremely simple and (forthe most part) reliable information
Those of you who have never heardof Wikipedia probably now think Irsquominsane
But if yoursquore one of the almost-300million daily Wikipedia viewers youmay be laughing quietly to yourself asIrsquom sure yoursquove had episodes of theseldquoWiki-tripsrdquo very similar to the one Ijust described
Yet aside from useless trivialmovie facts Wikipedia is also chock-full of millions of informative articleswhether itrsquos programming languagetax accounting or cognitive scienceThink about any subject and therersquosmost likely a Wikipedia page for it
This is exactly what co-foundersJimmy Wales and Larry Sanger had inmind when they decided to launch theonline encyclopedia in 2001 Theywanted to create an information baseso fast and so simple that you couldhave access to anything you desirewith just the click of a mouse
Obviously the two of them couldnrsquotwrite and update the more than 3 mil-lion articles by themselves so they setup their website in a way that anybodycan edit any particular page
Now this is where it gets messy On one hand you have the in-depth
insights of anyone in the world on anygiven subject constituting well-round-ed articles that tell both sides of the
story On the other hand you
have Wiki ldquovandalsrdquo whowill virtually tear apart arti-cles writing falsehoods andother totally irrelevant infor-mation just because theycan
Although the site hasplenty of editor-experts whofact-check additions to arti-cles and duly delete inap-propriate ones this flaw in
Wikipediarsquos system seriously restrictsthe site from being viewed as a legiti-mate academic reference tool
Now however Wikipedia is lookingto improve its role and usefulness inacademic settings especially withincolleges and universities
But should a site that is so inclinedtoward bias and misinformation everbe taken seriously
Not yet But eventually it very wellcould be
The way I look at it Wikipedia is afantastic starting source partiallybecause it provides links to othersources Like I mentioned itrsquos incredi-bly quick and easy to gather the infor-mation yoursquore looking for
But as with any source you need totake it with a grain of salt
As they say donrsquot believe every-thing you read Yoursquore not just going togo read one book at the library and callit research You need backup sourcesto confirm what yoursquore reading is true
The same goes for Wikipedia Ifyou find a piece of information youneed great Now go look for anothersource to back it up If yoursquoreresearching US history and it readsldquoThe first president of the UnitedStates was Eminemrdquo mdash itrsquos funny butdefinitely isnrsquot true
The site is also looking for otherways to increase its legitimacy as anacademic source such as having uni-versity professors ldquoflagrdquo certain articlesthat they think are appropriate or notappropriate for use While this solutionis far from perfect itrsquos a solid start
As of now I feel that Wikipedia hasa long way to go before it can be citedindependently in research
Even so when used correctly if youactually analyze and think criticallyabout the information being present-ed the site has some tremendouspotential and is a fine startingresource for whatever informationyou may wish to pursue
Wikipedia not readyfor the classroom yet

There are often timeswhen men strike out withtheir woman for missingan anniversary or maybeeven a birthday
Valentinersquos Day how-ever is everywhereThere is no way to missit no way to forget thedate and no excuse fordoing nothing

f we told you to imaginea place where heroinaddicts can shoot up
openly without any fear ofbeing arrested yoursquod proba-bly twerk your head and askus what wersquore on
Oddly enough such aplace exists in VancouverBritish Columbia
Insite is a clinic that pro-vides addicts with free nee-dles in an effort to stop thespread of HIV Seventy-fivepercent of those who usethe facility change theirinjection behavior for thebetter
Itrsquos been successful thusfar and we would like to seesomething similar imple-mented here in the States
The operation started in2003 in one of the areas ofCanada where AIDS wasspreading most rapidly Thegoal was simple provide theusers with sterile equip-ment and supervision so asto reduce the spread of HIVand reduce deaths fromoverdoses
There are 12 stationswhere users sit in front of awell-lit mirror while theyinject themselves Herethey will find all the materi-als needed for injectionHowever Insite does nothelp the users obtain any
drugs everyone who walksthrough the front doorsalready has drugs on themand nearly all of them areseasoned drug users
Nurses and other trainedmedical personnel are read-ily available to provideassistance in shooting up orto rush to provide emer-gency medical aid in case ofoverdose
Although Insite mayfacilitate drug use it in noway promotes it Locatedupstairs is Onsite an addic-tion treatment facilitywhere many users often endup going for help
