NCAA REGIONALS
Gators host
first round
By TIM CASEY
Alligator Writer
tcasey@alligator.org
The morning after sleeping in their own beds
for the first time in ten nights, UF baseball players
awoke to discover what teams they would face in
the NCAA Tournament.
By winning the SEC regular season champion-
ship, the Gators were already guaranteed a bid to
the tournament.
On Sunday, Gainesville was
selected as one of 16 host sites
for the first round of the tourna-
ment.
7.j On Monday the entire field
was announced, as well as which
teams would play host to the
Barton Super Regional round should
they win the Regional round.
"We're really proud of the way things have
worked out for us this year so far," UF desig-
nated hitter Stephen Barton said. "We're looking
forward to this weekend and being a host site. We
know we have a lot ahead of us. This is a great
team this year, we're so excited right now. We can't
wait to play."
The Gainesville Regional winner will face the
winner of the Tallahassee Regional in a Super
Regional series. The Super Regional winner ad-
vances to the College World Series in Omaha,
Neb.
"I think that if we can get out of the regional,
we can definitely make it to Omaha," UF senior

It's hard to miss the splashy billboard overlooking
Southwest 34th Street: "Tight living space tarnishing
your reputation?"
The playful statements printed on the billboard
advertise Lexington Crossing, one of Gainesville's
many apartment complexes striving to tap into the
city's lucrative college-student market.
"It's a competitive business, but we just want to be
a good community for college students," said Krystle
Hobert, a leasing agent at Lexington Crossing. "We
try to, make things fun for our
Around residents."
Galnesville Campus Lodge leasing agent
Jessica Malara said with the nu-
merous options, local apartment
complexes must market a wide array of benefits to
make their properties attractive to potential rent-
ers.
Campus Lodge, located at 2800 SW Williston
Road, offers residents a variety of amenities, includ-
ing a fitness area, a large swimming pool, private
bathrooms, HBO channels and fully furnished "bun-
galows," Malara said.
However, in the stiff competition to attract thou-
sands of college students with varied tastes, premium
TV channels and the latest gym equipment may not
be enough.,
"We'll be under new ownership in June, and that's
going to bring in a lot of new things," Malara said.
"They're putting in electronic locks on the doors, like
the ones they have at hotels."
She added that renewing residents at Campus
Lodge will have a chance at free rent in June.
Marc Weisinger, a 21-year-old UF senior and
resident at Campus Lodge, said he's pleased with
the proposed changes planned by the complex's new
owners.

UF student to compete in Miss Teen Florida pageant
* THE COMPETITION RUNS
FRIDAY THROUGH SUNDAY.

UF student MarLisa Cryer has
cerebral palsy.
She's also Miss Teen Volusia
County 2005, a title she earned
in April.
And this weekend, Cryer will
be the only contestant-from UF
competing with six other beauty
queen hopefuls in the Miss Teen
Florida United States Pageant at
the Tampa Bay Performing Arts
Center.
The pageant begins Friday
and runs through Sunday. Tickets
are $35 for the general public.
Cryer, who is majoring in
health science and enrolled in
"I feel blessed to be a part
of UF as a disabled person
and a student in general."
MarLisa Cryer
UF student
a hefty 15 credits this summer,
was born with cerebral palsy,
an orthopedic and sometimes
neurological disorder that affects
about one million people in the
United States.
Because of the disease, Cryer
uses a 'walker even during
pageants.
The walker shouldn't get in
her way this weekend, she said.
"I'm not really concentrated
on winning a title," said Cryer, an
AIDS/HIV awareness advocate.
Cryer, who found out about
the Miss Teen Florida pageant
through a friend, said she hopes
any recognition she might re-
ceive could be used as a platform
to spread information about HIV
and AIDS awareness. Cryer, who
turned 18 years old Sunday, said
it's not always easy to wake up
some days because of her dis-
ability, but she appreciates the
opportunity to get an education
at an institution like UF.

A new ski boat at Lake Wauburg
should ensure its popular ski and
wakeboard program will fill up every
week this summer.
"We are maxed out," said Bill James,
director of the Outdoor Recreation
Center at the lake. "We try and take as
many students as possible, but there is
only so many we can handle."
On May 24, the first day of the
boat's use, the program reached capac-
ity for the week in less than an hour.
The ski boat is used Tuesday
through Friday from 1:15 p.m. to 5:
30 p.m.
James said the average total atten-
dance per year is approximately 2,620
skiers.
One of the boat's drivers, UF stu-
dent Tim Deaux, said the new boat
comes equipped with cruise control,
which will make the rides smoother.
"We mostly pull skiers and wake-
boarders, and some of them are very
specific about their speed," Deaux
said.
Wakeboarders like to be pulled
between 22 mph and 25 mph, while
skiers like to get closer to 30 mph,
Deaux said.
The boat takes one to three riders
out at a time, and about 10 riders in a
day, he said.
Every year, UF purchases a new ski
boat and trades in last year's model.
The new boat, a 2005 Malibu
Wakesetter, retails for approximately

$40,000, but after the trade-in, the cost
for UF is only about $5,000 to $8,000,
James said.
"We are in the same position as a
ski school," James said. "We put a lot
of hours on the boat, and so we trade
it in before we start having any prob-.
lems with it."
The boat usually has 300 to '350
hours of use when it is traded in, he
said.
"If we would keep a boat for, let's
say, five or six years, then it would be
worthless as a trade-in with all those
hours on it," James said.
"The great thing about this
program is that it's for every-
one, not just the water-sport

skied within the past week are not al-
lowed to call before 12:30 p.m.
"All the time slots for the entire
week are usually full by 1 p.m." James
said. "If you get a busy signal just
keep trying. Don't count on calling
back later."
To help improve its service, some
changes have been made to the pro-
gram's reservation policies.
For example, each skier now
must call for himself. In the past,
groups could simply pass the phone
from one person to another, which-
led to large time blocks being taken
up by a small group of people.
"The great thing about this pro-
gram is that it's for everyone, not just
the water-sport clique," James said.
For those who can't book a time
slot for skiing, there are still plenty of
other activities at Lake Wauburg.
"We have sailboats, paddleboats,
canoes, kayaks, flying-disc golf and a
rock-climbing wall," Lake Wauburg
lifeguard Carolyn Desey said.
James said one possible idea to
further improve the system would
be developing a call-waiting system
that would allow callers to know how
many people are before them.
"It's a very popular program, and
we hope that students who are inter-
ested in it will be able to ski at least
every other week," James said.

take the swim test can be found at ww

UF professor co-authors best-selling fitness guide
By KENDRA WEIKMAN best sellers list. It also has been but on national television as "Then she said something about Health magazine, began his UF
Alligator Contributing Writer mentioned by USA Today, The well. me and asked me to stand up." career.in 2001.
UF can count a current nation-
wide best-selling author among
its prestigious teaching ranks.
Ted Spiker, 36, an assistant
professor in the College of
Journalism and Communications,
co-authored "YOU: The Owner's
Manual: An Insider's Guide to
the Body That Will Make You
Healthier and Younger." The
book, a guide to total body
health, presents each part of the
body in easily- understandable
and useful ways.
As of Monday afternoon, it
claimed the No. 3 spot on Barnes
& Noble's best sellers list and
ranked No: 3 on Amazon.corn's
Wall Street Journal and The New
York Times.
Two doctors, Michael F.
Roizen and Mehmet Oz, con-
tacted Men's Health magazine,
where Spiker was an editor at the
time, in hopes of finding some-
one to co-author the book with
them, Spiker said.
"They wanted the Men's
Health tone: a little edgy, a little
sarcastic, funny, unpredictable
and surprising," he said. "That
was my role, to try to give them
some of that."
"It was neat to work on,"
Spiker said.
The book has not only been
featured on the best sellers list,
After the book was complet-
ed, Spiker said Roizen and Oz
contacted the producers of The
Oprah Winfrey Show in an effort
to get the book
on television.
Taped in
April and aired
May 3, Oprah's
"Insiders' Guide
.. to Making You
Younger and
Spiker Healthier" fea-
tured Oz discussing the book. On
Oprah's "After the Show," Spiker
also received recognition.
"At the end, Oprah said how
fun the book was to, read and had
-the doctors stand up," he said.
Spiker said the experience was
nice because he was there to sup-
port the book and didn't expect
to be on television. He also at-
tributed the media attention to
giving the book the publicity it
needed to gain public awareness.
"YOU: The Owner's Manual"
is not Spiker's first best seller,
however. He also co-authored
"The Abs Diet" with the editor-
in-chief of Men's Health maga-
zine, David Zinczenko.
"The Abs Diet," a New York
Times best seller, is featured
prominently on the Men's Health
home page.
Spiker, a contributing editor
for Men's Health and the edi-
tor-at-large-for the new Women's
Spiker heads the college's
magazine sequence.
Spiker's work has appeared in
publications as varied as Outside,
Fortune, In Style, Cosmopolitan
and the St. Petersburg Times,
according to the College of
Journalism and Communications'
Web site.
Amanda Wilson, 19, was ex-
cited to hear of Spiker's achieve-
ments. A public relations major,
Wilson said that she was proud
to have someone from her college
gain prominence.
S"He is a model for all students
in the College of Journalism,"
Wilson said. "His success is en-
couraging to all the rest of us."
Local artists contribute to Florida folk celebration
Amanda Brown / Alligator
Dottie Prince, of Gainesville, Ga., picks out a tune on the Dulcimer at the 53rd
annual Florida Folk Festival, held in White Springs on May 27.
By AMANDA BROWN.
Alligator Contributing Writer
The Southern-folk sounds of Whitey Markle and
the Swamprooters brought a little bit of Gainesville
culture to the stage on Friday during the 53rd an-
nual Florida Folk Festival.
Markle, a woodshop teaching lab specialist at
the UF College of Design, Construction & Planning,
and his Florida bluegrass band were among some
of the participants from the area who attended the
event, which celebrates Florida traditions..
Wendy Welch, festival director and program
supervisor for the Stephen Foster Folk Culture
Center State Park, said the mission of the festival is
to showcase Florida ii all its folk-cultural ways.
The festival, hosted within the 888-acre park
along the Suwanee River in White Springs, ran from
Friday to Sunday and showcased performances
from 11-time Grammy-winning artist Emmylou'
Harris and many other acclaimed folk artists.
The event broke a sales record in pre-sale ticket
orders, said Welch, who expected about 25,000
people to attend the event over the weekend..
"It brings an annual regeneration," she said.
"It is almost an emotional measuring stick for
Florida."
The festival measures which communities are-
thriving and which communities are not, Welch
said.
Markle, who sang of hurricanes, airboats and
UF, feels that singing his songs helps keep his cul-
ture alive. He has participated in the festival since
1978 and has written 12 songs about Florida's heri-
tage and traditions.
"I guess it is kind of qui',otic "he said. "It is all
I know."
Markle draws from different experiences
throughout his lifetime to develop ideas for his
songs, such as teaching at the Union Correctional
Institution in Raiford. The lyrics to some songs,
such as "Rabbit Fever," even feature prison slang.
Another song, "Proleterian Football Blues," sati-
rizes the hierarchy at UF and the new dry-campus
policy. It is about getting arrested for sneaking alco-
hol into the stadium during a football game.
However, Markle's favorite song, called "The
East Florida Blues," is a tune that shows his frustra-
tion with migration of northerners to the South.
Other Gainesville area residents participating in
the festival wanted to send a message expressing
their concerns about Florida's wildlife. Dressed in
brightly-colored costumes, one ecology-minded
group paraded through the park as various species
of wildlife.
Dale Crider, a wildlife biologist who lives near
Newnan's Lake, promoted his message about
the importance of wildlife education by dancing
around the festival dressed as a giant dragonfly.
Others in Crider's group came clad in butterfly,
skunk and mushroom attire.
Crider said the group raises consciousness about
the importance of wildlife by expressing what these
species need to survive.
"It brings an annual regeneration. It is
almost an emotional measuring stick.
for Florida."
Wendy Welch
Florida Folk Festival director
"We are a procession of Florida wildlife that can
pull in and associate with humans," he said. "We
squeak, squawk, fly, dance ... and sing, of-course."
The group also performs songs written by
Crider about wildlife.
Traditional crafters also attended the festival and
shared cultural customs through handmade jewelry,
colorful blankets and unique shell carvings.
Dan Townsend, a shell carver, uses both mod-
em dentist drills and primitive tools to carve the

Townsend, who has participated in the festival
for the last 19 years, said the most important feature
of the festival is being able to share the Muskogee
culture with-people. He said these symbols repre-
sent their language, a language of the soul. .
"It has been more of a medicine to me than I
ever would have imagined," he said. "When you
are educating people,-you are always the one to

Gators potential Super host
BASEBALL, from page 1
Jeff Corsaletti said. "We have one
of the toughest regionals. If we play
Florida State or somebody like that in
a Super Regional at home, this place
will be rocking."
The Gators' bracket includes No.
2-seeded North Carolina (40-17-1),
No. 3-seeded Notre Dame (36-22-1)
and a rematch with Stetson (35-26),
who UF defeated 6-4 on May 18 in
comeback fashion.
That game saw SEC Player of
the Year Matt LaPorta belt the first
of what would be three consecutive
game-winning home runs, a turning
point in UF coach Pat McMahon's
season.
"The last wins, starting ironically
with the Stetson club to win late, to
come back and burst through that
barrier at Vanderbilt, gave our team
a huge lift," McMahon said. "Then
the dramatic win against Arkansas
to come back from 8-2 in the SEC
Tournament. A lot of people were
looking to the next day, but not our
club."
The Gators won their- first two
games of the SEC Tournament, but
lost to Mississippi twice on Saturday.
LaPorta and Corsaletti were named to
the All-Tournament team.
Corsaletti said that the Gators have
not begun to scout their opponents.
For the fifth
straight year, the
SEC led all confer-
ences with nine
teams selected for
the tournament.
Despite the high
McM n national ranking,
McMahon said he is
telling his players to remain humble.
"We're so proud to play ourselves
into a position to be a potential Super
-Regional host," McMahon said. "It
shows the outstanding year we've
had thus far. We've got to take of our
job before that. But at this point, all
records go back to 0-0, our guys know
that."
Miami is also hosting a Regional.
Dissatisfied residents seek change

'"I heard the new owners are putting
in electronic locks and redoing the com-
puter lab, so those will be good chang-
es," he said. "As a resident, everything's
great."
Gainesville Place, a student apartment
complex located at 2800 SW 35th Place, is
also under new ownership by Paradigm
Properties.
Gainesville Place already boasts ameni-
ties like a fitness trail, maid service, an on-
site personal trainer and a 52-channel cable
package, leasing agent Danielle Griss said.
Paradigm is planning several renovation
and construction projects to enhance the
complex's appeal.
"I know for sure that they're renovating
the gym," she said. "But they might also be
building some sort of coffee shop, maybe
doing more landscaping and getting a
manned gate."
Despite the plans for more resident-
friendly features, 21-year-old- UF student
and Gainesville Place resident Erin Bengele
claimed to be unhappy with the services
provided and intends to relocate to a differ-
ent complex.
"They sent us these surveys ask-
ing us if we'd want a coffee shop
or a pizza place. It's an apart-
ment complex, not a hotel."
Erin Bengele
Gainesville Place resident
"The management isn't good or under-
standing," she said. "They're just really
intrusive. They come into the apartment and
look around because they're doing 'inspec-
tions,' but the inspections happen, like,
twice a month."
Bengele said she is not pleased with
Paradigm's possible changes.
"They sent us these surveys asking us if
we'd want a coffee shop or a pizza place,"
she said. "It's an apartment complex, not a
hotel."

Editorial
Blog heaven
Student Web gossip ha
a place in our hearts
Change can be as good as it is inevitable.
For years, those frustrated by the slow-moving
cogs of government and the news media have taken
out their frustrations in the form of the news/political
"Weblog."
National politics have seen the devastating power of
these Web sites to out official secrets and pay particular
attention to the spin-free truth.
The war in Iraq, for instance, might never have come
to pass without sustained blogging on both sides of the
question. Trent Lott may not have stepped down as Senate
Majority Leader without the persistence sometimes
annoying of bloggers who traced his allegedly racist
remarks back to middle school.
The advantage of blogs can hardly be disputed:
Although the Alligator receives its news at the same time
as many other sources, including bloggers, the ethical hat
we wear as journalists requires that our reporters gather
more and confirm via several sources information before
we relay the stories.
The physical limitations of committing this reasonably
accurate and researched material to paper slow us down
even further, especially during the summer.
But with the ability to post virtually anything online
in seconds, bloggers can update and edit at will, so they
don't necessarily have to be as vigilant about checking.
facts. Additionally, their identities are rarely associated
with the words they write.
Over the past year, everyone got a w'ell-publicized
crash course in anonymous sources and their checkered
reliability. There's a reason why reporters' names accom-
pany every story they write, for better and worse.
But caveats aside, we consider the Alligator a blog-
friendly.zone. In fact, we briefly got into the act earlier
this year, when a team of Alligator staffers reported blog-
style from the Orange and Brew on Student Government
election nights.
So we take special interest when our SG becomes the
recurring subject of several blogs, written by self-reported
insiders.
The very existence of these blogs proves there's much
to talk about in SG land.
Even though it's likely the women and men behind
these "underground" endeavors are loyal to Student Body
President Joe Goldberg, and not radical SG separatists, po-
litical commentary has its place at every table.
No matter whose interests they purport to serve, blogs
are just another way of translating information from the
powers that be to the everyday student with a minimum
of hassle.
Furthermore, their positions on the inside ensure they
can convey information to the average student at least as
quickly as we can, because they don't need to follow the
legal/ethical guidelines we do, such as reporters introduc-
ing themselves while covering a story.
We're also happy they discuss some things in detail that
we could never fully report on.
They even comment on the way the Alligator covers the
same topics, which helps us grow.
Bloggers, we salute you. Come on in sometime we,
owe you a drink or two.
We'll make sure Joe and Bernie aren't watching.

Unfortunately for individuals who enjoy gratuitous
use of the suffix '-gate,' Newsweekgate doesn't
quite roll off the tongue like their most recent
crowning achievements, Rathergate and nipplegate.
One would think the mainstream media learned from
previous indiscretions, but this is not the case.
Recently, Newsweek reported on a military investi-
gation claiming U.S. interrogators flushed copies of the
Quran down the toilet while questioning prisoners at
Guantanamo Bay.
Later, their one source backed away from-his original
claim and Newsweek retracted the story.
It is extremely important to reveal the stains of
American democracy, but Newsweek should have waited
for further evidence to support their story before compro-
mising the security of American troops.
Unfortunately, this event alludes to a larger problem:
The mainstream media is overrun with scandal, sensation-
alism and journalistic failure.
About a month ago, we were blessed with the emer-
gence of the "runaway bride." In one fell swoop or shall
I say one mad dash she managed to hijack cable news
for an entire week.
This woman got so much exposure she's one step away
from an endorsement deal with Nike.
In addition, you can't even watch the news for 15 min-
utes without hearing the name Michael Jackson.
I know, I know after all the accusations of child mo-
lestation, the public is just waiting for that last, important
question to be answered.
To finally answer it, no, M.J.'s nose hasn't fallen off
yet.
Stories like these must not overshadow information
that is far more important, often vital, to an informed
citizenry.
When is the last time you heard news about the en-
vironment? Mercury content in the fish we eat has risen
Aaron Blye to levels harmful to children and
Blye's Eyes pregnant women.. Turning into a
human thermometer seems pretty
important, but hey, that's just me.
What about the millions of people without healthcare?
I think they'd like to know how they're going to afford
health insurance in the future, when arthritis, tendonitis
and every other '-itis' ailment sets in.
Even in the presence of newsworthiness, journalists
still fail the American people. Anchors are far too deferen-
tial to their guests.
Uncovering a lie, whether told by a Republican or
Democrat, does not undermine objectivity. Journalists are
supposed to be seekers of truth, not pacifist bystanders.
As bloggers become more successful than journalists
at uncovering the truth, rather than improve upon their
own broadcasts, cable news channels have arrived at an
epiphany of journalistic genius.
On CNN's "Inside the Blogs," real journalists turn to
two hot interns as they read information from "Skippy
the Bush Kangaroo" off a computer screen. As Jon Stewart
says, "When I want news, I turn to CNN ... and they turn
to Skippy the Bush Kangaroo." Houston, we have a prob-
lem.
The mainstream media's voice in the marketplace for
truth is failing us. The average citizen, unlike a poli-sci
nerd like me, doesn't have the time or attention span to
watch unfiltered news on C-SPAN, but "Who's watching
the watchmen?"
Concerned citizens must demand better news. Write
letters to. the networks, newspapers and your representa-
tives in Congress.
But in the meantime do yourself a favor and tune in for
the "fake news" on "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart."

Conference offers new hope for disengagement in Israel
At the end of the British Mandate in
May of 1948, Israel declared its state-
hood the culmination of-the great
Zionist venture as led by Herzl, Weizmann
and Ben-Gurion.
For decades Zionist leaders shared
hope with Jewish masses in Russia,
Romania and Poland, but the Holocaust
in its unimaginable scope and practice im-
puted even more dramatic meaning to the
potential reunification of those scattered
by Diaspora.
And for all the planning ahead of time,
for all the massive population and military
advantages of Arab states such as Egypt,
Syria, Lebanon, Jordan and Iraq, they
could not together triumph over the supe-
rior determination of the Israelis in their
war for independence.
And the world is a better place for the
Arab nations' utter failure. As a result,
a beautifully democratic state flowers
among them.
Liberalism such as Israel's, combined
with the earnest visions of fragile Arab
democracies, will ensure all the nations of
the Middle East are someday friends.
After all, it is hard to fight a neighbor
you have come to know and love. Since
1948, this day of understanding seemed
tragically distant.
But no longer.
One week ago, more than two dozen
Gators attended the American Israel
Public Affairs Committee's Annual Policy
Conference in Washington, D.C., includ-
ing myself.
The committee generously subsidized
travel for students from across the country
so we could meet fellow pro-Israel activ-
ists and witness debates on foreign policy.
Also, we met and discussed Middle East
policy issues with leading analysts, aca-
demics and officials, such as Secretary of
State Condoleezza Rice as well as Senators
Mel Martinez, Bill Nelson, Jim Talent, Jon
Kyl, Rick Santorum and Barack Obama.
We learned from these officials that
Israel unites both parties because it is an
American value.
- We found invigorated committee of-
ficials, like committee President Bernice
Manocherian, who were inspired by
President Bush's steadfast commitment
Christian to a real, lasting
Waugh resolution. But
The Final Frontier Prime Minister Ariel
Sharon's risky .po-
litical stratagem of disengagement, upon
which he has gambled his career as well
as his party's credibility, is what really
captured people's imaginations.
There's an old Vulcan proverb: Only
Nixon could go to China.
And so, just as MacArthur made
peace with Japan, and as Reagan broke
through to the Soviet Union, so too does
the controversial Sharon reach out to the
Palestinians.
In all these cases, one must love the
people but recognize the institutions for
what they are: decrepit and completely
incapable of representing the people.
As with the stultifying iron shackles of
Communism, the abhorrent corruption of
Palestinian authorities must be dissolved,
so the people can live lives by their own
will and for their own dear hopes final-
. ly free of the terror of a thousand murder-
ous tyrants and thugs.
So although Mahmoud Abbas has said
all the right things, courageously defying
several precedents set by his murder-
ous and incompetent predecessor Yasser
Arafat, sources indicate that the nascent
Palestinian state organization fears change
- not cracking down on arms, but merely
putting them into hiding.
Alas, few things are more feared in the
world than change.
This is still probably a good step. The
moment Sharon and Abbas grasp and seek
to shape could turn into a beautiful dream
or a terrible nightmare.
Hopefully, the- people of the Middle
East will recognize that and seize the mo-
ment by making a breathtaking advance
despite all they have come to know in their
weary political world.
It is true that, for them, uncertainty
abounds as they confront fear of change
and a half century of distrust. But as with
all things, this, too, shall pass. Then Israel
will no longer be unfairly defmnonized as an
enemy, but will instead be embraced as an
old friend.

Johns released; Gators search for new head coach
Tim Casey/Allgator Staff
Karen Johns speaks after the softball team was eliminated from the NCAA regional tournament
on May 21. Her contract was not renewed and the UAA will conduct a search for a new coach.
By SPENCER DAVIS-VANNESS
Alligator Writer
sdvanness@alligator.org
After five seasons of never quife
making it over the hump, UF head soft-
ball coach Karen Johns will not return
for a sixth.
UF Athletics Director Jeremy Foley
announced Friday that Johns' contract
will not be renewed this summer and
that a search for her replacement will
begin immediately.
"We would like to thank Karen for
all she has done on behalf of the Florida
softball program she is a wonder-
ful person that truly cared about the
Gators," Foley said. "But after an hon-
est and open evaluation of the program,
it became evident that this program
was not achieving the success that we
envisioned."
Foley said he would be open to
promoting one of the Gators' assistant
coaches but wanted to focus primar-
ily on candidates with previous head-
coaching experience.
Since arriving at UF in 2001, Johns'
teams have seen patchy success but
ultimately have failed to break into the
nation's elite.
The Gators have enjoyed thrxe
consecutive 41-win seasons in a tough
Southeastern Conference but have offset
"We're not as much of a
player in the softball [scene]
as much as I'd like us to be
and think we can be.."
Jeremy Foley
UF athletics director
this success by consistent postseason
underachievement.
The Gators are 2-for-12 in SEC
Tournament appearances under Johns,
and despite four NCAA Tournament
appearances in five years, have been un-
able to advance to a Super Regional.
It was an especially poor late season
for the Gators in 2005. UF collapsed
down the- stretch in conference play
and followed with back-to-back two-
and-out performances in the SEC and
NCAA Tournaments.

UFROUNDUP
UF ready for Championships
For the No. 7 UF men's golf team, things are
different than last year heading into the NCAA
Championships, held Wednesday-Saturday at
the Caves Valley Country Club in Baltimore.
Last year, UF was the favorite to win, but
finished tied for sixth place.
This year, some of the pressure is off, but
Coach Buddy Alexander doesn't think winning
the championship is necessary to consider the
season a success.
"If we play well in Baltimore and we finish
in the top five or the top three or something like
that, I think everybody will look at this year as a
big success," he said.
But for UF's top player this year, that's not
good enough.
"Top five I don't know if that's a success,"
junior Matt Every said. "If we're like 15th going
into the last day, then maybe top five would be
a success."
More pressure will be on Oklahoma State
this year, according to Alexander.
"They are in exactly the same position we
were in going into the national championship
a year ago," he said. "We had won seven times,
we were the clear-cut No. 1 team, etc. They
didn't win their regional tournament; we didn't
last year. So I hope they have the same lack of
success that we did."
Alexander said that OSU is the team to beat,
but there are six to eight teams that feel like they

have a legitimate chance at winning. He said the
Gators unquestionably have a chance to win it.

The men's squad finished with 94 points,
while Florida State won the meet with 97. The
Gators advanced nine athletes and two relays

did in the SEC Tournament over

Softball candidates aplenty
hese drab days of summer,
when the only sound of sport
on campus is the ping of a.
bat, make us a little stir-crazy here
at the Alligator. So what better way'
to-break the boredom than a juicy
coaching search? After'all, it has been
more than seven months since we all
watched the Zooker choke back tears
of defeat.
But this spectacle originates far
from the shadow of the Swamp, the
O'Dome or the Mac. This one comes
from that far away intersection of
Hull and Museum, where, nestled
between the Southwest Recreation
Center and acres of crops, lies the hal-
lowed confines of the Florida Softball
Stadium.
OK, so it's not exactly The House
That Rockne Built. But its tradition
proved far too rich for former UF
softball coach Karen Johns. Johns was
fired on Friday, wrapping up a five-
year stint in which her teams finished
no better than fifth in the Southeastern
Conference. Athletics Director Jeremy
Foley said the Gators' two-and-

much bearing on the decision for a
change in leadership. But Johns' 2-
10 career SEC Tournament and 3-8
NCAA postseason record doesn't
exactly live up to the expectations of
a 14-time defending SEC All-Sports
Trophy winning program.
While this coaching change might
not drive the Gator Nation to send e-
mail death threats or have a billboard
promoting Foley's firing erected on

Cameron: Gators will embrace new coach
SOFTBALL, from page 15
Since 1998, the UF softball team has called a $2.6 mil-
lion state-of-the-art facility home, and Foley also hinted
i t the resources and facilities provided to the program
amounted to expectations that have not been reached.
"When you have an extraordinary work ethic, and
you have the resources that we have, and yet you have a
softball program that isn't where we think it should be,
something is missing," Foley said.
And Johns' troubles at UF were not strictly limited to
the playing field.
% In 2003, former UF softball player Andrea Zimbardi
filed suit against the university, alleging that Johns and
other coaches had dismissed her from the team because
she was a lesbian. Zimbardi's case was settled when UF
agreed to provide sensitivity training to its coaches and
athletic staff. The university admitted no wrongdoing in
the matter.
News of Johns' release came as a surprise to her for-
mer players, some of who had already left Gainesville
on the completion of their season.
"As a team, we were all pretty
shocked," junior outfielder Lindsey
Cameron said. "Nothing can really
prepare you for finding out Coach
[Johns] is no longer going to be with
you."
The team will get behind Johns'
Cameron replacement, Cameron said.
"Whoever comes in, we're really excited about it and
we'll embrace them with open hearts and hard work.
Next year's a completely new season and a completely
new page."

LaPorta a wig and a padded bra

to sneak some power into the line-
up. Kind of like in "Ladybugs."

ment of seeing Dylan at Heritage

it would be. a gross understate.-
ment to say the guy is washed-up

been the most talented singer, but
it sounded like he had done noth-
ing but gargle gasoline for the past
30 years. Maybe Bobby needs a
career change. Seeing how he has
been performing frequently at
baseball stadiums across the coun-
try, perhaps he has some fondness,
and even insight, for the game.
Again, he'd likely have to learn
a few nuances. The downside for
the UAA, however, would be the
dramatically decreased attendance
due to the $49.50 (plus $5.50 han-
dling fee) tickets and bumrnt-out,

TUESDAY, MAY 31,2005 aorAmenities ure titr do~ tA tr first round By TIM CASEY Alligator Writer tcasey@allgator.org The morning after sleeping in their own beds for the first time in ten nights, UF baseball players awoke to discover what teams they would face in the NCAA Tournament. By winning the SEC regular season championship, the Gators were already guaranteed a bid to the tournament. On Sunday, Gainesville was selected as one of 16 host sites for the first round of the tournament. On Monday the entire field was announced, as well as which teams would play host to the Barton Super Regional round should they win the Regional round. "We're really proud of the way things have worked out for us this year so far," UF designated hitter Stephen Barton said. "We're looking forward to this weekend and being a host site. We know we have a lot ahead of us. This is a great team this year, we're so excited right now. We can't wait to play." The Gainesville Regional winner will face the winner of the Tallahassee Regional in a Super Regional series. The Super Regional winner advances to the College World Series in Omaha, Neb.

The playful statements printed on the billboard advertise Lexington Crossing, one of Gainesville's many apartment complexes striving to tap into the city's lucrative college-student market. "It's a competitive business, but we just want to be a good community for college students," said Krystle Hobert, a leasing agent at Lexington Crossing. "We try t. make things fun for our Around residents." Gailnesville Campus Lodge leasing agent Jessica Malara said with the numerous options, local apartment complexes must market a wide array of benefits to make their properties attractive to potential renters. Campus Lodge, located at 2800 SW Williston Road, offers residents a variety of amenities, including a fitness area, a large swimming pool, private bathrooms, HBO channels and fully furnished "bungalows," Malara said. However, in the stiff competition to attract thousands of college students with varied tastes, premium TV channels and the latest gym equipment may not be enough. "We'll be under new ownership in June, and that's going to bring in a lot of new things," Malara said. "They're putting in electronic locks on the doors, like the ones they have at hotels." She added that renewing residents at Campus Lodge will have a chance at free rent in June. Marc Weisinger, a 21-year-old UF senior and resident at Campus Lodge, said he's pleased with the-proposed changes planned by the complex's new owners.

And this weekend, Cryer will be the only contestant -from UF competing with six other beauty queen hopefuls in the Miss Teen Florida United States Pageant at the Tampa Bay Performing Arts Center. The pageant begins Friday and runs through Sunday. Tickets are $35 for the general public. Cryer, who is majoring in health science and enrolled in "I feel blessed to be a part of UF as a disabled person and a student in general." MarLisa Cryer UF student a hefty 15 credits this summer, was born with cerebral palsy, an orthopedic and sometimes neurological disorder that affects about one million people in the United States. Because of the disease, Cryer uses a 'walker -even during pageants. The walker shouldn't get in her way this weekend, she said. "I'm not really concentrated on winning a title," said Cryer, an AIDS/HIV awareness advocate. Cryer, who found out about the Miss Teen Florida pageant through a friend, said she hopes any recognition she might receive could be used as a platform to spread information about HIV and AIDS awareness. Cryer, who turned 18 years old Sunday, said it's not always easy to wake up some days because of her disability, but she appreciates the opportunity to get an education at an institution like UP.

TUESDAY, MAY 31, 2005 U ALLIGATOR, 3 i\ \ Tim Casey/ Alligator StaO Sailboats on Lake Wauburg have been joined by a new ski boat, causing capacity problems at the UF recreation spot. AROUND GAINESVILLE Ski boat makes waves at Wauburg By RYAN WIERENGA Alligator Contributing Writer A new ski boat at Lake Wauburg should ensure its popular ski and wakeboard program will fill up every week this summer. "We are maxed out," said Bill James, director of the Outdoor Recreation Center at the lake. "We try and take as many students as possible, but there is only so many we can handle." On May 24, the first day of the boat's use, the program reached capacity for the week in less than an hour. The ski boat is used Tuesday through Friday from 1:15 p.m. to 5: 30 p.m. James said the average total attendance per year is approximately 2,620 skiers. One of the boat's drivers, UF student Tim Deaux, said the new boat comes equipped with cruise control, which will make the rides smoother. "We mostly pull skiers and wakeboarders, and some of them are very specific about their speed," Deaux said. Wakeboarders like to be pulled between 22 mph and 25 mph, while skiers like to get closer to 30 mph, Deaux said. The boat takes one to three riders out at a time, and about 10 riders in a day, he said. .Every year, UF purchases a new ski boat and trades in last year's model. The new boat, a 2005 Malibu Wakesetter, retails for approximately $40,000, but after the trade-in, the cost for UF is only about $5,000 to $8,000, James said. "We are in the same position as a ski school," James said. "We put a lot of hours on the boat, and so we trade it in before we start having any problems with it." The boat usually has 300 to 350 hours of use when it is traded in, he said. "If we would keep a boat for, let's say, five or six years, then it would be worthless as a trade-in with all those hours on it," James said. "The great thing about this program is that it's for everyone, not just the water-sport clique." Bill James Outdoor Recreation Center director UF has a contract with Malibu in Ocala through next year that covers the trade-ins and the new boats, James said Anyone with a valid Gator 1 card and a Lake Wauburg Ski Card can make an appointment to go waterskiing or wakeboarding free of charge. To obtain a ski card, one must pass a swim test consisting of a 200-yard swim and be able to tread water for five minutes. Reservations for one or two 15minute time slots are allowed per week, he said. However, individuals who have skied within the past week are not allowed to call before 12:30 p.m. "All the time slots for the entire week are usually full by 1 p.m." James said. "If you get a busy signal just keep trying. Don't count on calling back later." To help improve its service, some changes have been made to the program's reservation policies. For example, each skier now must call for himself. In the past, groups could simply pass the phone from one person to another, which led to large time blocks being taken up by a small group of people. "The great thing about this program is that it's for everyone, not just the water-sport clique," James said. For those who can't book a time slot for skiing, there are still plenty of other activities at Lake Wauburg. "We have sailboats, paddleboats, canoes, kayaks, flying-disc golf and a rock-climbing wall," Lake Wauburg lifeguard Carolyn Desey said. James said one possible idea to further improve the system would be developing a call-waiting system that would allow callers to know how many people are before them. "It's a very popular program, and we hope that students who are interested in it will be able to ski at least every other week," James said. Information regarding where to take the swim test can be found at ww w.recsports.hhp.ufl.edu/wauburg.

4, ALLIGATOR U TUESDAY, MAY 31, 2005 ON CAMPUS UF professor co-authors best-selling fitness guide By KENDRA WEIKMAN Alligator Contributing Writer UF can count a current nationwide best-selling author among its prestigious teaching ranks. Ted Spiker, 36, an assistant professor in the College of Journalism and Communications, co-authored "YOU: The Owner's Manual: An Insider's Guide to the Body That Will Make You Healthier and Younger." The book, a guide to total body health, presents each part of the body in easily understandable and useful ways. As of Monday afternoon, it claimed the No. 3 spot on Barnes & Noble's best sellers list and ranked No. 3 on Amazon.com's best sellers list. It also has been mentioned by USA Today, The Wall Street Journal and The New York Times. Two doctors, Michael F. Roizen and Mehmet Oz, contacted Men's Health magazine, where Spiker was an editor at the time, in hopes of finding someone to co-author the book with them, Spiker said. "They wanted the Men's Health tone: a little edgy, a little sarcastic, funny, unpredictable and surprising," he said. "That was my role, to try to give them some of that." "It was neat to work on," Spiker said. The book has not only been featured on the best sellers list, but on national television as well. After the book was completed, Spiker said Roizen and Oz contacted the producers of The Oprah Winfrey Show in an effort to get the book on television. Taped in April and aired May 3, Oprah's "Insiders' Guide to Making You Younger and Healthier" featured Oz discussing the book. On Oprah's "After the*Show," Spiker also received recognition. "At the end, Oprah said how fun the book was to read and had the doctors stand up," he said. "Then she said something about me and asked me to stand up." Spiker said the experience was nice because he was there to support the book and didn't expect to be on television. He also attributed the media attention to giving the book the publicity it needed to gain public awareness. "YOU: The Owner's Manual" is not Spiker's first best seller, however. He also co-authored "The Abs Diet" with the editorin-chief of Men's Health magazine, David Zinczenko. "The Abs Diet," a New York Times best seller, is featured prominently on the Men's Health home page. Spiker, a contributing editor for Men's Health and the editor-at-large for the new Women's Health magazine, began his UF career in 2001. Spiker heads the college's magazine sequence. Spiker's work has appeared in publications as varied as Outside, Fortune, In Style, Cosmopolitan and the St. Petersburg Times, according to the College of Journalism and Communications' Web site. Amanda Wilson, 19, was excited to hear of Spiker's achievements. A public relations major, Wilson said that she was proud to have someone from her college gain prominence. "He is a model for all students in the College of Journalism," Wilson said. "His success is encouraging to all the rest of us." Local artists contribute to Florida folk celebration Amanda Brown / Alligator Dottie Prince, of Gainesville, Ga., picks out a tune on the Dulcimer at the 53rd annual Florida Folk Festival, held in White Springs on May 27. By AMANDA BROWN. Alligator Contributing Writer The Southern-folk sounds of Whitey Markle and the Swamprooters brought a little bit of Gainesville culture to the stage on Friday during the 53rd annual Florida Folk Festival. Markle, a woodshop teaching lab specialist at the UF College of Design, Construction & Planning, and his Florida bluegrass band were among some of the participants from the area who attended the event, which celebrates Florida traditions. Wendy Welch, festival director and program supervisor for the Stephen Foster Folk Culture Center State Park, said the mission of the festival is to showcase Florida in all its folk-cultural ways. The festival, hosted within the 888-acre park along the Suwanee River in White Springs, ran from Friday to Sunday and showcased performances from 11-time Grammy-winning artist Emmylou Harris and many other acclaimed folk artists. The event broke a sales record in pre-sale ticket orders, said Welch, who expected about 25,000 people to attend the event over the weekend. "It brings an annual regeneration," she said. "It is almost an emotional measuring stick for Florida." The festival measures which communities are thriving and which communities are not, Welch said. Markle, who sang of hurricanes, airboats and UF, feels that singing his songs helps keep his culture alive. He has participated in the festival since 1978 and has written 12 songs about Florida's heritage and traditions. "I guess it is kind of quixotic," he said. "It is all I know." Markle draws from different experiences throughout his lifetime to develop ideas for his songs, such as teaching at the Union Correctional Institution in Raiford. The lyrics to some songs, such as "Rabbit Fever," even feature prison slang. Another song, "Preleterian Football Blues," satirizes the hierarchy at UP and the new dry-campus policy. It is about get a rested for sneaking alcohol into the stadium during a football game. However, Markle's favorite song, called "The East Florida Blues," is a tune that shows his frustration with migration of northerners to the South. Other Gainesville area residents participating in the festival wanted to send a message expressing their concerns about Florida's wildlife. Dressed in brightly-colored costumes, one ecology-minded group paraded through the park as various species of wildlife. Dale Crider, a wildlife biologist who lives near Newnan's Lake, promoted his message about the importance of wildlife education by dancing around the festival dressed as a giant dragonfly. Others in Crider's group came clad in butterfly, skunk and mushroom attire. Crider said the group raises consciousness about the importance of wildlife by expressing what these species need to survive. "It brings an annual regeneration. It is almost an emotional measuring stick. for Florida." Wendy Welch Florida Folk Festival director "We are a procession of Florida wildlife that can pull in and associate with humans," he said. "We squeak, squawk, fly, dance .and sing, of -course." The group also performs songs written by Crider about wildlife. Traditional crafters also attended the festival and shared cultural customs through handmade jewelry, colorful blankets and unique shell carvings. Dan Townsend, a shell carver, uses both modem dentist drills and primitive tools to carve the ancient medicine language of the Muskogee people into his shells. Townsend, who has participated in the festival for the last 19 years, said the most important feature of the festival is being able to share the Muskogee culture with people. He said these symbols represent their language, a language of the soul. "It has been more of a medicine to me than I ever would have imagined," he said. "When you are educaimg people, you are always the one to waik away more educated than others." Contestant hopes to raise awareness of HIV/AIDS by participating in pageant PAGEANT, from page 1 UF as a disabled person and a student in general," she said. As of Monday, Cryer was leading with 41.2 percent of the votes in an online poll among all of the contestants. The winner of the online poll wins the Internet Choice Award. This is separate from the competition in Tampa and online voting, which began last week, ends Thursday. Reigning Miss Teen Florida, Julianne Pruitt, was Miss Lake County before capturing the state crown last year. Pruitt will be on hand this weekend to see her successor take the stage Sunday. Contestants in the teen pageant must be between 13 and 19 years old, never been married, not given birth, not a parent, "of good moral character," a U.S. citizen and a Florida resident, according to the official rules. -To vote for MarLisa Cryer, or any of the beauty pageant contestants, in an online poll for the Internet Choice Award,gotowww.flauspageants.com/ teen/dpg.cgi Voting ends Thursday.

Gators potential Super host BASEBALL, from page 1 Jeff Corsaletti said. "We have one of the toughest regionals. If we play Florida State or somebody like that in a Super Regional at home, this place will be rocking." The Gators' bracket includes No. 2-seeded North Carolina (40-17-1), No. 3-seeded Notre Dame (36-22-1) and a rematch with Stetson (35-26), who UF defeated 6-4 on May 18 in comeback fashion. That game saw SEC Player of the Year Matt LaPorta belt the first of what would be three consecutive game-winning home runs, a turning point in UF coach Pat McMahon's season. "The last wins, starting ironically with the Stetson club to win late, to come back and burst through that barrier at Vanderbilt, gave our team a huge lift," McMahon said. "Then the dramatic win against Arkansas to come back from 8-2 in the SEC Tournament. A lot of people were looking to the next day, but not our club." The Gators won theirfirst two games of the SEC Tournament, but lost to Mississippi twice on Saturday. LaPorta and Corsaletti were named to the All-Tournament team. Corsaletti said that the Gators have not begun to scout their opponents. For .the fifth straight year, the SEC -led all conferences with nine teams selected for the tournament. Despite the high Va national ranking, McMahon said he is telling his players to remain humble. "We're so proud to play ourselves into a position to be a potential Super Regional host," McMahon said. "It shows the outstanding year we've had thus far. We've got to take of our job before that. But at this point, all records go back to 0-0, our guys know that." Miami is also hosting a Regional. COMPLEX, from page 1"I heard the new owners are putting in electronic locks and redoing the computer lab, so those will be good changes," he said. "As a resident, everything's great." Gainesville Place, a student apartment complex located at 2800 SW 35th Place, is also under new ownership by Paradigm Properties. Gainesville Place already boasts amenities like a fitness trail, maid service, an onsite personal trainer and a 52-channel cable package, leasing agent Danielle Griss said. Paradigm is planning several renovation and construction projects to enhance the complex's appeal. "I know for sure that they're renovating the gym," she said. "But they might also be building some sort of coffee shop, maybe doing more landscaping and getting a manned gate." Despite the plans for more residentfriendly features, 21-year-old UF student and Gainesville Place resident Erin Bengele claimed to be unhappy with the services provided and intends to relocate to a different complex. "They sent us these surveys asking us if we'd want a coffee shop or a pizza place. It's an apartment complex, not a hotel." Erin Bengele Gainesville Place resident "The management isn't good or understanding," she said. "They're just really intrusive. They come into the apartment and look around because they're doing 'inspections,' but the inspections happen, like, twice a month." Bengele said she is not pleased with Paradigm's possible changes. "They sent us these surveys asking us if we'd want a coffee shop or a pizza place," she said. "It's an apartment complex, not a hotel." THEY'RE ON THEIR WAY. So.

6, ALLIGATOR TUESDAY, MAY 31, 2005 EditOg heaven Student Web gossip ha8 a place in our hearts C hange can be as good as it is inevitable. For years, those frustrated by the slow-moving cogs of government and the news media have taken out their frustrations in the form of the news/political "Weblog." National politics have seen the devastating power of these Web sites to out official secrets and pay particular attention to the spin-free truth. The war in Iraq, for instance, might never have come to pass without sustained blogging on both sides of the question. Trent Lott may not have stepped down as Senate Majority Leader without the persistence -sometimes annoying -of bloggers who traced his allegedly racist remarks back to middle school. The advantage of blogs can hardly be disputed: Although the Alligator receives its news at the same time as many other sources, including bloggers, the ethical hat we wear as journalists requires that our reporters gather more and confirm via several sources information before we relay the stories. The physical limitations of committing this reasonably accurate and researched material to paper slow us down even further, especially during the summer. But with the ability to post virtually anything online in seconds, bloggers can update and edit at will, so they don't necessarily have to be as vigilant about checking facts. Additionally, their identities are rarely associated with the words they write. Over the past year, everyone got a w'ell-publicized crash course in anonymous sources and their checkered reliability. There's a reason why reporters' names accompany every story they write, for better and worse. But caveats aside, we consider the Alligator a blogfriendly zone. In fact, we briefly got into the act earlier this year, when a team of Alligator staffers reported blogstyle from the Orange and Brew on Student Government election nights. So we take special interest when our SG becomes the recurring subject of several blogs, written by self-reported insiders. The very existence of these blogs proves there's much to talk about in SG land. Even though it's likely the women and men behind these "underground" endeavors are loyal to Student Body President Joe Goldberg, and not radical SG separatists, political commentary has its place at every table. No matter whose interests they purport to serve, blogs are just another way of translating information from the powers that be to the everyday student with a minimum of hassle. Furthermore, their positions on the inside ensure they can convey information to the average student at least as quickly as we can, because they don't need to follow the legal/ethical guidelines we do, such as reporters introducing themselves while covering a story. We're also happy they discuss some things in detail that we could never fully report on. They even comment on the way the Alligator covers the same topics, which helps us grow. Bloggers, we salute you. Come on in sometime -we owe you a drink or two. We'll make sure Joe and Bernie aren't watching. alligat" r Mike Gimignani EDITOR Eva Kis MANAGING EDITOR, The Alfigator enCnouages comments from readers.

Column Cancel my subscription to News-weak nfortunately for individuals who enjoy gratuitous use of the suffix '-gate,' Newsweekgate doesn't quite roll off the tongue like their most recent crowning achievements, Rathergate and nipplegate. One would think the mainstream media learned from previous indiscretions, but this is not the case. Recently, Newsweek reported on a military investigation claiming U.S. interrogators flushed copies of the Quran down the toilet while questioning prisoners at Guantanamo Bay. Later, their one source backed away from his original claim and Newsweek retracted the story. It is extremely important to reveal the stains of American democracy, but Newsweek should have waited for further evidence to support their story before compromising the security of American troops. Unfortunately, this event alludes to a larger problem: The mainstream media is overrun with scandal, sensationalism and journalistic failure. About a month ago, we were blessed with the emergence of the "runaway bride." In one fell swoop -or shall I say one mad dash -she managed to hijack cable news for an entire week. This woman got so much exposure she's one step away from an endorsement deal with Nike. In addition, you can't even watch the news for 15 minutes without hearing the name Michael Jackson. I know, I know -after all the accusations of child molestation, the public is just waiting for that last, important question to be answered. To finally answer it, no, M.J.'s nose hasn't fallen off yet. Stories like these must not overshadow information that is far more important, often vital, to an informed citizenry. When is the last time you heard news about the environment? Mercury content in the fish we eat has risen Aaron Bye to levels harmful to children and Blye's Eyes pregnant women. Turning into a human thermometer seems pretty important, but hey, that's just me. What about the millions of people without healthcare? I think they'd like to know how they're going to afford health insurance in the future, when arthritis, tendonitis and every other '-itis' ailment sets in. Even in the presence of newsworthiness, journalists still fail the American people. Anchors are far too deferential to their guests. Uncovering a lie, whether told by a Republican or Democrat, does not undermine objectivity. Journalists are supposed to be seekers of truth, not pacifist bystanders. As bloggers become more successful than journalists at uncovering the truth, rather than improve upon their own broadcasts, cable news channels have arrived at an epiphany of journalistic genius. On CNN's "Inside the Blogs," real journalists turn to two hot interns as they read information from "Skippy the Bush Kangaroo" off a computer screen. As Jon Stewart says, "When I want news, I turn to CNN .and they turn to Skippy the Bush Kangaroo." Houston, we have a problem. The mainstream media's voice in the marketplace for truth is failing us. The average citizen, unlike a poli-sci nerd like me, doesn't have the time or attention span to watch unfiltered news on C-SPAN, but "Who's watching the watchmen?" Concerned citizens must demand better news. Write letters to the networks, newspapers and your representatives in Congress. But in the meantime do yourself a favor and tune in for the "fake news" on "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart." Aaron Blye is a political science senior. His colunm appears on Tuesdays.

TUESDAY, MAY 31, 2005 N ALLIGATOR, 7 Column Conference offers new hope for disengagement in Israel the end of the British Mandate in May of 1948, Israel declared its statehood -the culmination of -the great Zionist venture as led by Herzl, Weizmann and Ben-Gurion. For decades Zionist leaders shared hope with Jewish masses in Russia, Romania and Poland, but the Holocaust in its unimaginable scope and practice imputed even more dramatic meaning to the potential reunification of those scattered by Diaspora. And for all the planning ahead of time, for all the massive population and military advantages of Arab states such as Egypt, Syria, Lebanon, Jordan and Iraq, they could not together triumph over the superior determination of the Israelis in their war for independence. And the world is a better place for the Arab nations' utter failure. As a result, a beautifully democratic state flowers among them. Liberalism such as Israel's, combined with the earnest visions of fragile Arab democracies, will ensure all the nations of the Middle East are someday friends. After all, it is hard to fight a neighbor you have come to know and love. Since 1948, this day of understanding seemed tragically distant: But no longer. One week ago, more than two dozen Gators attended the American Israel Public Affairs Committee's Annual Policy Conference in Washington, D.C., including myself. The committee generously subsidized travel for students from across the country so we could meet fellow pro-Israel activists and witness debates on foreign policy. Also, we met and discussed Middle East policy issues with leading analysts, academics and officials, such as Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice as well as Senators Mel Martinez, Bill Nelson, Jim Talent, Jon Kyl, Rick Santorum and Barack Obama. We learned from these officials that Israel unites both parties because it is an American value. We found invigorated committee officials, like committee President Bernice Manocherian, who were inspired by President Bush's steadfast commitment Christian to a real, lasting Waugh resolution. But The Final Frontier Priine Minister Ariel Sharon's risky political stratagem of disengageiient, upon which he has gambled his career as well as his party's credibility, is what really captured people's imaginations. There's an old Vulcan proverb: Only Nixon could go to China. And so, just as MacArthur made peace with Japan, and as Reagan broke through to the Soviet Union, so too does the controversial Sharon reach out to the Palestinians. In all these cases, one must love the people but recognize the institutions for what they are: decrepit and completely incapable of representing the people. As with the stultifying iron shackles of Communism, the abhorrent corruption of Palestinian authorities must be dissolved, so the people can live lives by their own will and for their own dear hopes -finally free of the terror of a thousand murderous tyrants and thugs. So although Mahmoud Abbas has said all the right things, courageously defying several precedents set by his murderous and incompetent predecessor Yasser Arafat, sources indicate that the nascent Palestinian state organization fears change -not cracking down on arms, but merely putting them into hiding. Alas, few things are more feared in the world than change. This is still probably a good step. The moment Sharon and Abbas grasp and seek to shape could turn into a beautiful dream or a terrible nightmare. Hopefully, the people of the Middle East will recognize that and seize the moment by making a breathtaking advance despite all they have come to know in their weary political world. It is true that, for them, uncertainty abounds as they confront fear of change and a half century of distrust. But as with all things, this, too, shall pass. Then Israel will no longer be unfairly de mionized as an enemy, but will instead be embraced as an old friend. Christian Waugh is a first-year laze student. His column appears on Tuesdays.

Sports TUESDAY, MAY 31, 2005 ALLIGATOR www.alligatorSports.org Johns released; Gators search for new head coach Tim casey/Alligator Staff Karen Johns speaks after the softball team was eliminated from the NCAA regional tournament on May 21. Her contract was not renewed and the UAA will conduct a search for a new coach. By SPENCER DAVIS-VANNESS Alligator Writer sdvanness@alligator.org After five seasons of never quife making it over the hump, UF head softball coach Karen Johns will not return for a sixth. UF Athletics Director Jeremy Foley announced Friday that Johns' contract will not be renewed this summer and that a search for her replacement will begin immediately. "We would like to thank Karen for all she has done on behalf of the Florida softball program -she is a wonderful person that truly cared about the Gators," Foley said. "But after an honest and open evaluation of the program, it became evident that this program was not achieving the success that we envisioned." Foley said he would be open to promoting one of the Gators' assistant coaches but wanted to focus primarily on candidates with previous headcoaching experience. Since arriving at UF in 2001, Johns' teams have seen patchy success but ultimately have failed to break into the nation's elite. The Gators have enjoyed thuye consecutive 41-win seasons in a tough Southeastern Conference but have offset "We're not as much of a player in the softball [scene] as much as I'd like us to be and think we can be." Jeremy Foley UF athletics director this success by consistent postseason underachievement. The Gators are 2-for-12 in SEC Tournament appearances under Johns, and despite four NCAA Tournament appearances in five years, have been unable to advance to a Super Regional. It was an especially poor late season for the Gators in 2005. UF collapsed down the. stretch in conference play and followed with back-to-back twoand-out performances in the SEC and NCAA Tournaments. SEE SOFTBALL, PAGE 16. UF ROUNDUP UF ready for Championships For the No. 7 UF men's golf team, things are different than last year heading into the NCAA Championships, held Wednesday-Saturday at the Caves Valley Country Club in Baltimore. Last year, UF was the favorite to win, but finished tied for sixth place. This year, some of the pressure is off, but Coach Buddy Alexander doesn't think winning the championship is necessary to consider the season a success. "If we play well in Bainore and we finsh in the top five or the top three or something like that, I think everybody will look at this year as a big success," he said. But for UF's top player this year, that's not good enough. "Top five -I don't know if that's a success," junior Matt Every said. "If we're like 15th going into the last day, then maybe top five would be a success." More pressure will be on Oklahoma State this year, according to Alexander. "They are in exactly the same position we were in going into the national championship a year ago," he said. "We had won seven times, we were the clear-cut No. 1 team, etc. They didn't win their regional tournament; we didn't last year. So I hope they have the same lack of success that we did." Alexander said that OSU is the team to beat, but there are six to eight teams that feel like they have a legitimate chance at winning. He said the Gators unquestionably have a chance to win it. -IAN FISHER TRACK AND FIELD: The No. 2 UF men's track team crowned four champions and finished second, while the women's team captured two titles and finished fourth at the NCAA East Regional Championships Saturday at Icahn Stadium. .The men's squad finished with 94 points, while Florida State won the meet with 97. The Gators advanced nine athletes and two relays to the national meet. The women finished fourth with 47 points and had four individuals and one relay advance to the NCAA Outdoor Championships June 8-11 in Sacramento, Calif. For the men, Josh Walker won the 110-meter hurdles, Kerron Clement was victorious in the 400m hurdles, the Gators 4x100m relay of Richard Adu-Bobie, Mike Morrison, Kyle Farmer and Clement won the event and the 4x400m relay of junior Sekou Clarke, sophomore Reggie Witherspoon, freshman Bernard Middleton and Clement also claimed first. "We got through everything we needed to get through," men's coach Mike Holloway said. For the women, junior All-American Rachel SEE ROUNDUP, PAGE 16 Softball candidates aplenty hese drab days of summer, when the only sound of sport n campus is the ping of a bat, make us a little stir-crazy here at the Alligator. So what better way to -break the boredom than a juicy coaching search? After*all, it has been more than seven months since we all watched the Zooker choke back tears of defeat. But this spectacle originates far from the shadow of the Swamp, the O'Dome or the Mac. This one comes from that far away intersection of Hull and Museum, where, nestled between the Southwest Recreation Center and acres of crops, lies the hallowed confines of the Florida Softball Stadium. OK, so it's not exactly The House That Rockne Built. But its tradition proved far too rich for former UF softball coach Karen Johns. Johns was fired on Friday, wrapping up a fiveyear stint in which her teams finished:no better than fifth in the Southeastern Conference. Athletics Director Jeremy Foley said the Gators' two-andBryan App done outings App-etite for m the SEC Receptions Tournament bapp@alligator.org and NCAA regional -both of which were hosted by UF -this year didn't have much bearing on the decision for a change in leadership. But Johns' 210 career SEC Tournament and 3-8 NCAA postseason record doesn't exactly live up to the expectations of a 14-time defending SEC All-Sports Trophy winning program. While this coaching change might not drive the Gator Nation to send email death threats or have a billboard promoting Foley's firing erected on 1-75, it's all we've got. So let the search begin.

He may have never been the most talented singer, but it sounded like he had done nothing but gargle gasoline for the past 30 years. Maybe Bobby needs a career change. Seeing how he has been performing frequently at baseball stadiums across the country, perhaps he has some fondness, and even insight, for the game. Again, he'd likely have to learn a few nuances. The downside for the UAA, however, would be the dramatically decreased attendance due to the $49.50 (plus $5.50 hantdling fee) tickets and burnt-out, leather-skinned hippies scaring off the families.
