STUDENT GOVERNMENT
UF officials, SG
share sandbox
Editor's note: This is the last in a series of stories tak-
ing a closer.look at the hidden structures of Student
Government.
By DAVID COHEN
Alligator Writer
dcohen@alligator.org
Student Government is full of it.
It's full of $11 million of student money, to be exact. Officials in
SG and the UF administration say they agree the power over that
money isn't leaving students' hands.
The newest jewel in the crown of UF's top brass, Vice President
for Student Affairs Patricia Telles-Irvin, shocked SG officials when
she instituted what many SG members have called the "first ad-
ministrative veto in SG history."
It's actually the second in as many years, according to Student
Affairs officials, but her June veto of $200,000 of student money
allocated for Gator Growl caused some student
leaders to rethink their strategies.
Student Body President Joe Goldberg said
the veto was not welcome
"(That was a) new thing for SG itself, some-
thing we are not used to," he said.
Senate President Diane Kassim said her sur-
prise at the decision led her to devote significant
Goldberg concern to notions of student authority.
UF student body "The [veto is] d involved as you can possi-
president bly get," she said. "We don't expect it to happen
again."
Telles-Irvin said despite numerous e-mails from students prais-
ing or condemning the veto, she stands behind her decision.
"People are going to have different reactions," she said. "[SG
officials] have learned that in their own roles."
"I will challenge them, and they will challenge me. My role.is
certainly to be part of their education."
UF President Bernie Machen has veto power over allocation
of money by the Student Senate. Historically, presidents have
delegated the responsibility to those in Telles-Irvin's position, and
circumstances were no different when she arrived last October.
Goldberg said control of the Activity & Service Fee, paid by ev-
ery student as part of each credit hour, is essential for SG success.

Tuition rises for new students
By STEPHEN MAGRUDER
Alligator Writer
smagruder@alligator.org
Being new to UF will be slightly more expensive
in the Fall due to tuition-criteria changes based on a
student's status as "new" or "continuing" that now
factor into determining how much he or she pays.
Students already pay different tuition rates as
undergraduates and graduates .as well as Florida
residents versus out-of-state students, but their time
- or lack thereof spent at UF now will factor into
the equation as well.
"This is a first time ever," said Stuart Hoskins,
senior associate controller at UF.
He said officials at the Office of the University
Registrar and the Office of the Provost largely were
behind the changes.
Neither office returned calls for comment
Wednesday.

Senate votes to allow secured-site online voting
By JUSTIN RICHARDS
Alligator Writer
jrichards@alligator.org
A change in Student Body statutes to allow
for "secured-site" online voting passed first
reading in the Student Senate on Tuesday as
many observers felt that, if not the ultimate goal,
the system was a step in the right direction.
The secured-site system, as named by the
UF coach
Urban Meyer
speaks at the
Southeastern
Conference
media days
in Hoover,
Ala., on
Wednesday.
See story,
pg. 24.
Senate's online-voting committee, would
make every polling location on campus open
to every student. The measure also explic-
itly banned "unsecured-site" Internet voting,
which would allow students to vote from any
computer using their GatorLink accounts.
The secured-site system, passed by the
Senate 60-2, will save approximately $30,000
each election.
Senate President Diane Kassim expressed

concern that returning students who hear "on-
line" voting has been implemented will expect
their home computers to -
Student become polling booths.
Government "My biggest fear is that
it will be deceptive, that
there will be unhappy students," she said.
Kassim said she plans to form a new com-

Panhellenic rush nears
Recruitment week is drawing
closer for UF women looking to
join one of Panhellenic Council's 16
sororities this Fall.
Panhellenic recruitment begins
with an orientation at 5 p.m. in the
Reitz Union on Aug. 16, followed by
a week of four rounds of "parties."
The "parties" are meet-and-greets
between potential and current soror-
ity members at the chapter houses.
Panhellenic Membership Vice
President Courtney Weir said she
expects 1,300-1,400 students to reg-
ister for recruitment and about 1,200
to go through round one.
Weir said students are encour-
aged to submit applications,- avail-
able at the Panhellenic Web site, and
application fee of $70 as soon as pos-
sible. The fee rises to $85 after Aug. 7
and $100 if paid at orientation.
Weir said the benefit of joining a
sorority is the "true sense of a home
away from home for first-time stu-
dents" but warns it isn't for everyone.
"It can be overwhelming for
some students," she said. "I encour-
age any women questioning their
ability to go through recruitment
to sign up and go the first day and
realize they can withdraw at any
point in the process."
UF freshman Brooke Mahoney,
18, said she made the decision to
rush-this Fall partly due to her older
sister's experience with.Greek life.
"(She) seems to really enjoy it,"
Mahoney said. "It just looks like fun
and a good way to get involved and
meet people."

Exclusive chemistry classes hope to lure engineers
By RESHELLE SMITH
Alligator Contributing Writer
They design computers, cars,
theme parks and space shuttles, but
there just aren't enough of them.
To lure more students to engineer-
ing this Fall, College of Engineering
majors will have eight sections of
general chemistry all to themselves,
two of which will be for women
only, said Richard Dickinson, chair-
man of the task force that recom-
mended the change and a chemical
engineering professor.
Dickinson said statistics have
shown when students do poorly in
general chemistry, they are less likely
to stay in the College of Engineering.
The task force noticed many stu-
dents switch to different majors after
one or two years, before they take
any engineering classes, he said.
After some investigation, the task
force found a link between grades in
chemistry and the probability stu-
dents would stay in engineering.
It also found surveys of those who
left engineering indicated a negative
experience in general chemistry.
Jeffrey Keaffaber, a lecturer and
undergraduate coordinator for UF's
Department of Chemistry, said the
chemistry sequence is "make or
break" and often determines wheth-
er students remain in engineering.
Every engineering major must
take general chemistry, but without
this change they would be mixed
into sections containing students
from all majors.
Dickinson said the all-female sec-
tions, which women voluntarily reg-
ister for, are designed to bring more
women into the engineering field.
On a national level, only 19 per-
cent of all engineers are women,
while at UF, a university where ap-
proximately 53 percent of students
are female, only 22 percent of stu-
dents in the College of Engineering
are women, said Deborah Mayhew,
an assistant director in the college.
To compare, in the College of
Education 84 percent of students are
female. In the College of Journalism
and Communications, 74 percent
of students are female. And in the
College of Medicine, 52 percent of
students are women.
"You finally see the real-k
world applications of sci-
ence that's engineering."
Jeffrey Keaffaber
chemistry lecturer
Jennifer Curtis, chairwoman of
the chemical engineering depart-
ment and one of only two women
who chair a department in the
College of Engineering, said incor-
rect ideas about engineering plague
the field.
"A lot of females have miscon-
ceptions about what engineering is,
and a lot of that is probably from the
media," Curtis said.
In lower-level classes, like gen-
eral chemistry, students don't learn
enough engineering, which can per-
petuate negative stereotypes.
In the first years of college, en-
gineering students learn the funda-
mentals of science.and lack exposure
to engineering, Dickinson said.
This change will incorporate
as much engineering as possible
into lower-level classes, Dickinson
said. The new sections will give
future engineers perspective on
the relevance of chemistry to their
future career.
All of the engineering discussion
sections will be taught by highly
qualified graduate students from
the College of Engineering, he said.
They will be able to incorporate
more examples of problems stu-
dents might face in the industry. He
said he hopes this will raise aware-
ness of what engineers really do and
dismiss negative stereotypes.
Dickinson also said the new sec-
tions will allow students to meet
and become friends with other en-
gineering students.
Keaffaber said he will teach two
lectures of engineering sections, and
he will make some adjustments to
the curriculum to target it toward
those students,
One of the topics he will dis-
cuss is how a. fireworks show is
put together and the chemistry
behind it.
"You finally see the real world
applications of science that's en-
gineering," Keaffaber said.
Dickinson said if the program is
effective in raising grades and keep-
ing engineers, it will continue and
could spread to other classes such as
physics and calculus.

STUDENT LIFE
UF grads to teach in Japan
By MELISSA FILIPKOWSKI
Alligator Contributing Writer
Cara Lakin doesn't speak any Japanese.
She has never been to Asia and doesn't know
anyone on the entire continent. But in three
days Japan will be home to her and six other
UF graduates.
Seven UF graduates.will depart for Japan on
July 30 as participants in the Japan Exchange
and Teaching program, or JET. Sponsored by
the government of Japan, the participants
will spend at least one year working beside
Japanese English-language teachers at junior
and senior high schools in rural areas of Japan.
The UF participants are Lakin, Devin Casadey,
Seth Eason, Julie Rodriguez, Steven Shulmister,
Jonathan Smith and James Wadsworth.
"Participants will go to different schools in
rural areas of Japan that have had limited access
to American language and culture," Japanese
Consulate spokeswoman Darci Kissinger said.
Lakin, who graduated in May from the UF
Elementary Education Pro-Teach program, will
be teaching English to middle school and kin-
dergarten students in Osaka Prefecture, Japan.
The JET program is offered in approximately
40 countries with more than 30,000 participants
since its start in 1987. This year, there are more
than 1,300 Americans in the program, 36 from
Florida. *
The JET program aims to enhance foreign
language skills in Japan and promote inter-
national exchange at the local level through
fostering ties between the Japanese and young
adults from other countries.
Lakin's interest in the program began af-
ter she had a professor who had- traveled to
Japan.
"I was totally inspired to go," she said. "In
the back of my mind, I knew it was something
I would want to do."
Rodriguez was a Japanese Language and
Literature major and Shulmister was a Decision
Information and Sciences major with a minor
in Japanese.
The participants were required to pass an
application screening process and an interview
to qualify for the program.
Each-participant will receive a salary equiv-
alent to approximately $30,000 a year depend-
ing on the exchange rate and an apartment to
live in near his or her assigned school.
Lakin knows very little about her apartment
and school but says she isn't too worried about
it.
"I was totally inspired to go. In the
back of my mind, I knew it was some-
thing I would want to do."
Cara Lakin
UF alumna
"I have received a few photos of the apart-
ment," she said, "but I'm open for-anything."
Lakin also received a letter of welcome and
a packet from the Osaka School Board.
Overall, Lakin said she hopes to' gain a
general knowledge of Japanese culture and
the landscape of the country during her time
there.
"I am hoping to be fully immersed in the
Japanese culture while also learning more
about myself," she said. "Everything is going
to be new and exciting."
To qualify for the JET program in the United
States, applicants must hold a bachelor's de-
gree, be a U.S. citizen, have excellent English
skills, be under 40, not lived in Japan for three
or more years of the last eight years and have a
general interest in Japanese culture.
Applications for next. year's program will
be available in September and are due in the
beginning of December. For more information,
please call the Consulate General of Japan in
Miami at (305) 530-9090.

Grease Team campaigns for proper grease disposal
* THE PROGRAM CAME
ABOUT AFTER SEVERAL SEW-
AGE SPILLS IN GAINESVILLE.
By CRYSTAL HENRY
Alligator Writer
chenry@alligator.org
Just as the squeaky wheel gets the
grease, greasy pipes got the attention
of Gainesville Regional Utilities.
GRU intern and Alligator con-
.tributing writer Melissa Filipkowski
said she and fellow intern, Student
Senate President Diane Kassim, are
in charge of a campaign to educate
the public about proper grease dis-
posal after three recent back-to-back
sewage spills caused by grease dogs
contaminated local creeks.
"We call ourselves the Grease
Team," Filipkowski said..
Last weekend, she and Kassim
set up a table outside of Winn-Dixie
on Southwest 16th Avenue, offering
information about proper disposal
of household grease and gave out
free grease disposal kits.
The Grease Trapper kits include.
information about preventing
grease clogs, a plastic container
known as the Grease Trapper, grease
disposal bags and a postcard to
order more bags or an additional
Grease Trapper.
Filipkowski
said GRU started
-giving out the
Grease Trappers
two weeks ago.
About 500 have
& been distributed
already with
Kassim 5,000 niore slated
to be given out .
She and Kassim will be at stores
like Winn-Dixie, Albertsons and
Wal-Mart every Saturday from 10
a.m. until 1 p.m. and in the GRU
lobby Friday afternoons from 3 to 5
p.m. handing out the kits and infor-
mation about grease disposal.
Florida Department of
Environmental Protection spokes-
woman Jill Johnson said she believes
the reason for the grease clogs is that
people aren't educated about the ef-
fects of grease in the sewer system.
Johnson said she didn't think
disposing of grease by pouring it
down the kitchen sink was a prob-
lem when she was in college. Her
mother always took care of that
when she was at home, so she didn't
know any better.
"Anything that educates about
grease disposal is good," she said.
The department's Wastewater
Compliance Assurance Supervisor
Melissa Long said the department
is looking into whether restaurants
or residents caused the sewage spills
but said that "GRU is pretty aggres-
sive in their maintenance," and that
the Grease Trappers should help.
Filipkowski said despite the
three recent spills, GRU is about 25
percent below-the national average
of wastewater spill incidents.
Security concerns dominate Senate debate of Internet-based election system
VOTING, from page 1
as proof of his or her age.
"You give him your buddy's that he lent
you last week to take a (chemistry) test,"
Nelson proposed.
Former Impact Party spokeswoman Allison
Cullin said all she needs to vote in general elec-
tions is her voter registration, not photo ID.
Sen. Jason Litin said many students know
his GatorLink password, arguing the security
of an unsecured system could be defeated.
GatorLink account policy prohibits sharing
of account information. Violations can result in
loss of access to UF computer services.
The risk of voter coercion, that voters may
be watched and influenced while they vote at
their computers, was also the focus of a round
of discussion at the meeting.
Sen. Mike Belle compared the unsecured-
site system to absentee ballots that candidates
sometimes bring, door-to-door, requesting
votes. With absentee ballots, he said, others
are free to watch over voters' shoulders.
Former Student Body presidential candi-
date MacKenzie Moritz suggested there was
irony in the coercion fears.
"I think a lot of the students trying to make
the argument about coercion are already
strongly influenced by the organizations that
they're in," he said, adding that he is "not anti-
Greek by any means."
Online-voting committee member Sen.
Susan Henriques wrote three amendments to
the bill that would make room in SG statutes
for the unsecured-site
Student online voting option. All
Government three were voted down.
"I do not believe we
listened to our constituents tonight at all,"
Henriques said at the close of the meeting.

meeting Sunday and Tuesday's Senate meet-
ing, 63 students sent form letters via the
Progress Party's Web site asking their senators
to support Henriques' amendment.
Online-voting committee chairman Sen.
Jared Hernandez said it was very important to
him that his committee be nonpartisan.
The bill was sponsored by the leaders of all
three major SG parties the Impact Party, the
Access Party and the Gator Party.
However, Kassim said three committee
members approached her with concerns that
Hernandez -was biased in his leadership.
Moritz suggested this partiality showed
through in the terms "secured" and "unse-
cured." Both systems would use 128-bit encryp-
tion not even the U.S. government can break.

ADMINISTRATION, from page 1
"The only group that can allocate those
funds is SG," Goldberg said. "Administration
can't step in in the process."
He meets with Telles-Irvin twice per month.
"That's working out well for us," he said. "I
think that our communication has gotten bet-
ter since we've had those meetings."
Senate President Pro-Tempore John Boyles
said Telles-Irvin was just new to the process
when she made her decision.
"She has said that she did not really know
what was going on, what was coming with
this bill," he said.
Boyles added that despite initially hearing
rumors some administrators think of SG as
"just a bunch of kids playing government," he
hasn't formed strong opinions on the UF-SG
relationship yet.
"It's so soon into the terms of our new ad-
ministration that it wouldn't be fair to make
judgments like that at this point," he said.
As president, Goldberg is the only student
member of the UF Board of Trustees and said
the veto is one for the history books.
"I think that the administration realizes that
we are an important aspect of the university,"
he said. "They have not by any means talked
down to me. They appreciate what I say about
students. They want to hear first hand about
what is going on on-campus."
"She (Telles-Irvin) has said that
she did not really know what was
going on."
John Boyles
Student Senate president pro-tempore
And Telles-Irvin said she thinks SG leaders
are on top of their game.
"We have very capable (student) leaders,"
she said. "We have a system that runs well. I
think that most leaders in SG take their roles
very seriously."
But Telles-Irvin said there remains much
work to be done to make SG more accessible
and more relevant to students.
"It's always a challenge," she said. "We're
all in this together to make this a better institu-
tion. This is a partnership and I plan to work
closely with them. They play a very integral
part in advancing the institution forward."
Boyles said that despite not hearing of any
resentment in the Reitz Union corridors, SG
members stay on their toes a little more.
"Obviously, it will continue to affect all of
us," he said. "It's history, so it's going to affect
us. It will affect the way that we approach things
in the future. It's something that we think a little
more about than we did in the past."
But Boyles said he does not see senators bas-
ing their decisions on the possibility of a veto.
"We need to put it behind us and move
on," he said.
Biggest tuition increases affect graduate students in professional programs

Hoskins estimated UF received
about $197 million in tuition from
its 48,000 students for the fiscal year

Editorial
It's go time.
We at the Department of Darts and Laurels realize we
don't have much more room this Summer to praise the he-
roes and punish the wicked, so we're not taking the moments
we have left lightly.
The world's moving forward Greg Maddux has 3,000
strikeouts, Microsoft is testing a new version of Windows,
and the 62-year-old vocal cords of Mick Jagger will shred out
yet another set of tunes for a Rolling Stones album due in
September.
"The band came up with the title, 'A Bigger Bang,' reflect-
ing their fascination with the scientific theory about the ori-
gin of the universe," the group's official Web site proclaims.
Something tells us age is not the greatest of the Stones'
problems.
But UF has problems of its own, and with that understate-
ment of the semester we kick off the latest edition of...
Darts & Laurels
Whenever we extend that frail olive branch toward the
students who govern us, it feels like we're just poking a six-
alarm fire.
No complaints though as we said last week, we're
in the kitchen for a reason. But couldn't our student lead-
ers wait one week before shooting our praise down with a
poison arrow?
It's high time to shoot back with a do-what-students-
want-for-a-change DART to the groups pushing the so-
called "online voting" measure that passed first reading at
Student Senate.
Repeat: a DART, a DART, a DART to all involved with
the passage of the travesty we pain to call "secured-site"
online voting.
Besides its misleading language, the bill as-voted for by
the Senate doesn't even mandate such a system for future
elections it just opens the possibility while also specifi-
cally making true Internet voting illegal.
So when we're waiting in line in the heat this September
to reach our "online" voting machine, we all know whom
to thank.
And now, to prove we can eat our words under the right
circumstances, we'll blast off to Cape Canaveral, where a
notable event finally took place Tuesday.
At long last, we can hand the you're-still-too-old-but-
charm-lasts-a-long-time LAUREL to NASA for launching
the space shuttle into orbit for the first time in more than
two years.
We're also happy that the schedule leading to serious
manned exploration has been pushed up so that the vener-
able shuttle can end its career in 2010, and we can get back
to the moon by 2012.
For now, though, let's focus on getting Discovery's crew
back safely.
Finally, as we land firmly back on the ground after SG's
rug-tugging and our NASA-courtesy trip through the
stratosphere, we stick a we-miss-two-dollars-how-do-you-
not-notice-a-million DART to the foreheads of Gainesville
City Commission staffers. -
According to a story published Wednesday in the
Gainesville Sun, city staff knew for a month or more that
insurance broker Arthur J. Gallagher and Co. kept $1.3 mil-
lion in refund money intended to go back to the city and
Gainesville Regional Utilities.
But commissioners didn't know about it until Monday
night they weren't brought up to speed even when the
Commission deliberated on extending Gallagher's contract.
Our tax dollars at work.
Stay tuned next week as we recount the latest misadven-
tures in governing.

Opinions
Rational thinking sh(
ust for a change of pace, I'm going to step away from
what's going wrong at UF and in our society and spend
some time on the basics I don't think some of you have
en paying attention in class.
Today's topic is something I've been trying to beat into
your heads since my first day on the job: rational thinking.
It's no secret I don't have any use for extremists of any
kind especially not the bleeding-heart liberals and conser-
vatives we so often see (and, unfortunately, hear) here in the
land of the free.
As a former conservative, I find those fanatical liberals
to be the scarier of the two: Both do their best to destroy the
fabric of society by fighting for ideals shared by only a frac-
tion of the country, but liberals also have no practical sense of
what the government has the resources to accomplish.
You ask, "How can I tell if I am one of these outrageous lib-
erals, or if I simply have a healthy respect for civil liberties?"
In order to help you on your path to self discovery and
recovery, if the results turn out that way I present to you
a foolproof method of determining your level of liberalhood:
the "Ally McBeal" test.
You may remember "Ally McBeal" as a silly little TV
show about a silly little law firm that always got itself into
boringly silly situations.
In one episode, a businesswoman and single mother sued
her employers for gender-based discrimination.
This woman was one of those I'll-work-80-hours-per-
week-and-have-no-life-so-I-can-be-partner-when-I'm-35
types that you admire, despise or feel pity for, depending on
your personal beliefs.
After she became pregnant, as one would expect, she had
to cut down on those hours quite a bit.
Her new, fulfilling life as a self-supporting single mom
was just dandy until she was passed over for a promotion.
The job, of course, went to I've-been-working-80-hours-
per-week-so-I-can-get-a-promotion-even-though-I-haven't-
worked-here-as-long-as-that-other-lady guy.

would be nonpartisan
Thus, the lawsuit: She says she
was discriminated against because
the only reason she stopped work-
ing 80-hour workweeks was be-
cause she had a kid.
The argument from her lawyers
Matt Sanchez was that it was an affront to human-
Pure Foppery ity to deny a promotion to someone
msanchez@alligator.org for spending less time at work and
more time with their kids which
only females did.
Since this was American TV, Ms. Businesswoman won
the suit and everyone considered it a victory for civil liberties
and a savage blow to the old-boy country-club machine.
So, here's the test: If your brain hurts from the thought
that such flaming ridiculousness could even be conceived of,
then you are a rational human being.
If you agree, on the other hand, that the company should
be punished for giving a promotion to a guy who put in
obscenely long hours instead of to the woman who cut
her workload in half, then you're a U.S.-government-has-
enough-money-to-fix-every-problem-that-exists-and-every-
one-shopld-be-equal-except-white-males-who-should-be-
watched-so-they-don't-take-too-many-good-jobs liberal.
But just so my rational liberal buddies don't feel left out,
this scenario can be adapted to sniff out the conservatives.
Their first thought upon hearing the details of the case
was "Screw the lawsuit; whoever let that chick out of the
kitchen in the first place should be thrown in jail."
So remember kids: If any of your friends fail this test, they
are dangerous extremists and should be made fun of as often
as possible. Put that peer pressure to good use.
If you failed the test, console yourself with a bit of ad-
vice from our country's finest instructional media, G.I. Joe:
Knowing is half the battle.

Airline comedy can fly, but beware corporate-shtick takeoff
PROVIDENCE, R.I.
During the descent of my
recent Delta flight into
Atlanta, the flight atten-
dant came on the intercom to list
the connecting flights. With a dead-
pan voice, he began: "I'm now going
to read a very long and boring list."
He then paused for laughter that
never came.
This wisecrack was just one of
several made by Delta Dan through-
out the flight. Each one seemed
forced and out-of-place.
My discomfort with these jokes
puzzled me until I spoke with
Patrick Smith, author of the book
"Ask the Pilot: Everything You
Need to Know About Air Travel."
After echoing my feelings, he
emphasized what he sees as the big-
, ger picture that airlines are trying
to be funny without first figuring
out how to communicate effectively
on a normal, professional level.
"Why should airlines expect
people to appreciate in-flight com-
edy when they can't even offer a co-
herent explanation about things like
delays or lost luggage?" he asked
me in an e-mail.
"Airlines try to present difficult,
complex situations in the simplest
terms, and the end result is conde-
scending baby talk: 'Sorry, we have
to bump you because the plane is
out of balance.'"
In other words a bit of mutual re-
spect is needed before the employee
can say, as a Pacific Southwest
Airlines attendant once did, "Ladies
and gentlemen, I'd like to welcome
you to Honolulu: Unfortunately, we
are in Fresno."
In Smith's opinion, one carrier
stands out in the struggling indus-

management with good humor:
Southwest Airlines.
Southwest gate agents often play
games with delayed passengers,
and their flight attendants some-
times sing the safety instructions or
affect an Elvis or Mr. Rogers accent.
That's pretty funny.
On the business side, Southwest's
core values of humor and "luv" (the
company's stock ticker symbol)
have helped the carrier remain
profitable after Sept. 11, 2001, while
its big spoke-and-hub U.S. brothers
struggle with expensive pilot con-
tracts and fleet upkeep.
Delta and Northwest may file for
bankruptcy soon, joining US Airways
and United in the hangar of shame.
Southwest Airlines is the epito-
me of corporate humor. The reversal
is poetic; after decades of stand-up
monologues insulting air travel,
we now have an airline famous for
mocking itself. Airplane humor has
made the round trip.
As large companies focus on
improving their "corporate culture,"
Southwest-style humor is spreading
through the business world.
Such staid institutions as IBM
and Fidelity Investments, for ex-
ample, have admitted to hiring "hu-
mor consultants" for up to $5,000 an
hour. If this trend continues,'hilarity
might become a legitimate metric of
the corporate makeover.
Frankly, this trend worries me.
When a company's signature trait
is democratized for widespread use,
something awful ensues: It becomes
generic.
.I'm concerned about what will
happen if humor becomes another
component of crafting corporate
strategy. Will this be part of an MBA
degree taught by a professor of cor-
porate self-deprecation?
And after. Management con-
sultants begin recommending
open mic time for the boss, what's
next? Will humor follow "revenue
streams" as the latest for-profit
principle to invade nonprofit op-
erational theory?
Imagine donating blood in the
care of Red Cross nurses who lighten
the mood by wearing vampire teeth.
Part of tht surprise of a Delta em-
ployee joking is that Delta is famous
for being serious and conservative.
Just look at its bland moniker.

Ladies now learning when to hold 'em, fold 'em

Whether it's being played on the frontier
of the wild, wild West, the high-rollers table
in Las Vegas, or the average American cigar-
smoke-filled basement, whether you're play-
ing five card or seven card, stud, draw or hold
'em, whether you're playing for cash, chips or
both, one thing about poker has held true since
its creation.
It's a man's game.
Or at least it was.
Recently, the Travel Channel aired "World
Poker Tour Ladies Night," which featured the
top-six female poker players from around the
world. Even the ladies of Wisteria Lane often
meet and play a round of poker while gossip-
ing away. "I live with people who socialize through

Straetzel really caught on to the game. wholesale.com have been quick to capitalize
on this growing female poker trend, manufac-
turing poker sets in "girl-friendly" colors like
pink and purple.
The growing success of both professional
and casual female poker players could be at-
tributed to male players' bad habit of under-
estimating them.
"I play poker a lot at the Hard Rock in
Tampa, and when I first sit down at the table,
some of the guys question my ability to play
or think I'll be easy to beat," said freshman
Danielle Peterson. "But after a round or two,
I show them I really can play and usually gain
their respect pretty quickly."
Sara Lorenzen, a microbiology major,
learned the game from her father and
uses the discrimination against her to her
advantage.
"Usually, girls are better because guys
don't think they're going to lie," she said.

Thor Against the World
Thor
Smog Veil Records
Like He-Man singing Bon Jovi or
GWAR for Poison fans, Thor unleash-
es an onslaught of pop metal from the perspective
of a Nordic god. If that description doesn't hook
you, quickly browse over to the next CD review. For
the rest of you, I will attempt to explain the grace
and beauty of Thor's latest ode to the gods, "Thor
Against the World."
Thor (yes, that is his actual surname) has been
providing multimedia entertainment from movies
to music to rock n' roll comic geeks since the mid
'70s. His latest creation shows that his B-talent status
is well-deserved, for better or worse.
The music is horrendous and extremely lactose
friendly, with cheesy guitar solos hammered on top
of even cheesier synths. Thankfully, the lyrics are
borderline Shakespearean, with heart-wrenching
poetry like "Hey hey women, I wouldn't trade you
for three/ Hey hey women, you mean a whole lot
to me."
The real gem of the CD is the accompanying
music video for "Glimmer," which can be accessed
when putting the disc in a .computer. The video,
which has special effects and acting straight from
the Roger Corman School of Production, fits the
song perfectly.
"Thor Against the World" is awkward, preten-
tious, larger than. life and unknowingly hilarious
- all the components of a perfect cult CD.
The Muggs
The Muggs
Times Beach Records
In their self-titled disc, the Muggs
forego the last 20 years of rock music
and put out a blues-rock record straight from Detroit,
circa 1975. Unlike their revivalist contemporaries Jet
and Kings of Leon, they lack any sort of modem day
shimmer, which will keep them from the spotlight of
their counterparts. Still, their rusty sound will enthuse
purists and geeky music critics alike.
Nothing about the Muggs is pretty, and it's easy to
see why they proudly proclaim themselves to be the
ugliest band in the world. There is nothing smooth
about the constant thud of the rhythm section as they
pound away relentlessly. The blistering guitar and
blues-grit vocals create a grimy experience. The band
members also are ugly.
The standout track is the instrumental "Underway."
Though by definition lacking the sleazy vocals of lead
singer Danny, the groove generated by the three-piece
is undeniable, on par with "Toys in the Attic"-era
Aerosmith grooves.
Despite their name, the Muggs refrain from mug-
ging and deliver a straight-ahead rocker that serves as
a reminder of how sometimes to move forward, you
need to step back.

Punches
World Leaders Pretend
Warner Bros. Records
-' "Punches" is a completely self-contra-
dictory album, from lush orchestra-
tion with raspy vocals to minute-long piano pieces
alongside eight-minute epics, all held together by
a challenging pop-music sound. Proof that rock
isn't meant to be logical, "Punches" is a beautifully
crafted album that should appeal to everyone listen-
ing to music today.
World Leaders Pretend bring together three dis-
tinct sounds into most of its songs that surprisingly
create a cohesive experience. First is the surprising
vocals of band leader Keith Ferguson, who slurs
his words together when not hitting startlingly
high notes. Behind him is the pounding drums of '
Arthur Mintz, who creates innovative rhythms in an
unlikely situation. Holding everything together is
dense, imaginative instrumentation with an orches-
tra, guitar and glockenspiel all coming together to
form a Phil Spector-esque wall of sound.
Although each song has merit, the most easily ac-
cessible track is the album's namesake, "Punches."
The song is dynamic, swaying back and forth from
the disc's signature orchestration to a simple vocal
with keys.
Creating a unique sound from unlikely compo-
nents, "Punches" is a pop masterpiece that warrants
and gives joy to the repeated listens that are needed
to fully grasp its craftwork.

Girls will love 'Dogs'
As a very cute chick flick,
"Must Love Dogs" does ex-
actly what it's intended to do
- blend light comedy with a flare of
romanticism.
John Cusack and Diane Lane star
in the movie, opening tomorrow, as
two divorcees stuck in a melan-
choly state after their divorces be-
came final and their ex-significant
others move on.
Lane plays a conservative pre-
school teacher while Cusack retains
the same role that made him fa-
mous a slightly neurotic hope-
less romantic with
deep-rooted artistic ,
ize that he plays the r
same slightly neu-
rotic roles in most
of his movies, I never seem to get
sick of it.
I always find him endearing
and funny, and he is no different in
"Must.Love Dogs."
The movie sets up with Lane as
she returns to the dating scene via
Internet-dating Web sites. We fol-
low her on a string of dates, and
while it is kind of sad and pathetic
to watch, it comes off as mildly
funny.
Lane eventually finds herself
in a bind as she falls for two guys
- Cusack and the father of one of
her preschool students, played by
"My Best Friend's Wedding" star
Dermot Mulroney.
I was a little confused about
why the movie is named "Must
Love Dogs," as the movie doesn't
really focus on dogs too much.
So if by. some chance you were
intending to see the movie due to
cute scenes with pooches, you'll be
disappointed.
The movie mainly focuses on
moving on after divorce and the
hardships of the
Melissa dating world
Filipkowski not dogs.
The Reel Life The chemistry
theavenue@alligator.org between Lane
and Mulroney
was great, but
with Cusack, the scenes seemed too
rehearsed and I didn't buy into the
relationship.
This movie is reserved for those
who really enjoy Cusack or a girls'
movie night.
It will leave you turning to the
person next to you and sighing
contentedly.
Or in my case, hugging my
bucket of popcorn a little tighter
and watching the couple in front of
me make out.
Rockin' against the world
Thor lead guitarist Steve Stacq, lead singer Jon MikI Thor and bassist John Ramirez
perform at Common Grounds Monday as part of the "Thor Against the World" tour.
'Lion in Winter' presents dramas universal in history
The English have done it again.
The proper royales of olde dish up a
platter that's oozing with juiciness and
scandal in the play "The Lion in Winter."
This sudsy, slippery story is about the
drama of King Henry II's court. Namely, the
despise, infidelity, greed, fear, pity, betrayal,
love and plotting that makes up the power
struggle between his three sons, Richard (the
Lionheart), Geoffry and John.
Up for grabs in this life-sized game of chess
are a throne, a princess and some valuable
real estate. It's Christmastime; the family is all
together, hanging holly around the castle, and
they are at each other's throats literally.
It is the ultimate case for democracy. The
arbitrary ways decisions were made, whether
out of spite, whim or favoritism, would make
Washington rip out his hair and gnash his
wooden teeth.
The dialogue is witty
and keeps the audience
from noticing they are en- "
joying a form of history. .
It seems bad parenting is
the main problem hinted at .
in the drama, but. jealousy,
greed, selfishness, love and
power create intricate layers to the point that
the characters don't even know their true
hearts.
Director Ted Lewis and assistant Daniel
Lewis guided their cast through the maze of
human emotions, to great effect.
King Henry II, played by Randall Moring,
had a stately bellow and also an endearing
tiredness in the. whole
mess. His crippling mono-
Erin logue just before intermis-
Chalfant sion was genuine anguish.
Curtain Call Queen Eleanor, Susan
theavenue@alligator.org Moring, was incredibly
dynamic. She was icy, -yet
emotional and convincing
in every lie.
The greedy trinity of Richard, Geoffry and
John were adequate in their roles. And John,
Bennett Lloyd, was perfect for the spoiled-brat
baby of the family with his whiny voice.
And finally, the only victim of the play,
besides those pawns used in the kings' wars
and the perhaps long-suffering peasants we
always hear about, is Princess Alais, played
by Loren Omer. Omer plays the agony of be-
ing used by love well and helps to keep Alais
innocent-seeming even when she does get
angry..
The play really brings life in the 12th cen-
tury to the 21st century. We are still battling
our desires, emotions, families and carrying
grudges today.
This intense, twisting drama behind James
Goldman's play shows at the Gainesville
Community Playhouse, July 15 through 31.

Hate it or love it, 'Prince' leaves readers hanging
Istood in the midnight queue with
the other die-hard Harry Potter
blokes to get my copy of "Half-
blood Prince." I didn't immediately
read it because I wanted to re-read
the first five Harry Potter books. I
also didn't immediately read it be-
cause my prat of a boyfriend (who
I completely adore) decided to "bor-
row" my book and read it himself
before I had a chance to open it, after
rowing with me about how silly he
thought the whole Harry Potter
craze is.
After finally getting it back, I
stayed up all night reading it, and
frankly, I'm knackered.
Right.
"Half-Blood Prince" is not as
well written or as poignant as books
three and five. Rowling's imagina-
tion introduces us to fewer aspects
of the magical world than she nor-
mally does.
So to keep myself from spoiling
the book, I'll list what I disliked and
loved about Rowling's sixth install-
ment.
I disliked the fact that characters
like Ginny, Neville and Luna, who
Rowling spent time developing in
"The Order of the Phoenix," did
not play a larger role in this novel.
Hagrid and Lupin also didn't show
up nearly as often as I had hoped.
I disliked Harry Potter's new
romantic relationship. It seems to
stem from nothing. The character
Harry ends up with in book six
showed potential for becoming an
interesting and essential part of his
life in book five. But in book six,
she receives little attention from the
author.
Most of all, I
dislike the fact
that I have to
wait 18 to 24
months before I
know what hap-
pens next.
That is because there -were so
many aspects of this novel I loved.
To begin with, Harry Potter is no
longer an angsty, pissy teenager. He
also is not the boy hero he was in the
first four books. Harry has grown
into a vulnerable, yet mature adult
almost ready for his final show-
th
down with Voldemort.
Rowling also does a great job of
showing how Voldemort's return
has darkened the magical world
through her
Jayme descriptions of
the student's tra-
Gough ditional school-
Off the Press supply shopping
ieavenue@alligator.org trip in Diagon
Alley.
Then there is
the relationship between Ron and
Hermione. Their confused .feelings
for each other offer comic relief and
a dose of reality to. the reader. Their
constant loyalty to Harry is sweet,
but Rowling keeps it realistic by al-
lowing both Ron and Hermione to
doubt Harry's theories about who
a possible murderer in the school
might be.
I also enjoyed finding more
about Tom Riddle's past. Rowling's
description of Tom Riddle's meta-
morphosis into the dark wizard,
Lord Voldemort, is creepy. The read-
er learns enough about Voldemort
to find him disturbing yet almost
deserving of sympathy.
And then there is the ending.
The Half-Blood Prince reveals
himself. A major character dies. All
perceptions you had about certain
characters change in a matter of
pages. You are left with a cliffhanger
and a sneaky suspicion that what
you just witnessed might not be
what it appears.
Cheerio.
Whether for conversation or foreplay, sex talk should be silenced
Most relationships walk on two legs
conversation and sex. The mo-
ment either one stumbles, warning
flags go up.
If you're able to maintain good sex and
good conversation separately, combining the
two creates a whole new array of issues to
consider.
The first complication of sex talk stems
from the nearly infinite variations of conversa-
tion types during sex. Some people talk about
their desires and others talk in character. Some
make jokes and some just chitchat.
I separate all sex talk into two main catego-
ries: that which is designed to enhance the sex,
or "dirty talk," and that which has nothing
to do with the .experience at all, "intercourse
discourse."
The first category gets swept under the
blanket-term "dirty talk." However, with both
the multiple variations fantasy talk, baby
talk, demeaning talk, etc. and their very
separate followings, lump-
ing it all together under one
name proves dangerous.
While I'm pretty com-
fortable talking about my
fantasies with a partner,.
you'd be hard pressed to
get me talking like a toddler. Yet both get
pegged as 'dirty talk.'
A different experience-enhancing dialogue
in need of distinction from "dirty talk," I refer
to as shoptalk.
Shoptalk consists of the in-act discussions,
requests, commands and compromises of the
sexual logistics. While sometimes awkward,
in my opinion, shoptalk remains the only wor-
thy conversation during sex.
Shoptalk comprises, to
Mr. Lube me at least, the necessary
communication to achieve
Risque Business the mutual goal- namely
theavenue@alligator.org orgasm. All other types of
talking tend to make me
laugh out loud, which is
another sound not well received during sex.
On the topic of talk that topples the mood,
I label the other category of sex talk as "inter-
course discourse."
Intercourse discourse is surprisingly com-
mon, especially when it comes to making light
jokes.
The intention seems obvious. Making one
endearing to another through laughter effec-
tively gets sex partners. However, when the
nudity starts the jokes should stop.
But it's not only light banter. Intercourse
discourse types have an incomparable man-
ner to prattle while they probe.
Typically, the conversation remains super-
ficial with plans for the week or recounting
the day. When the conversation becomes an
intimate confession of inner thoughts those
not sex related of course I find myself even
more lost.
Mostly, when it comes to coital conversa-
tion, I wish we all could just shut up.

Meyer debuts at Media Days
Mark Almond / AP Photo
UF coach Urban Meyer speaks at the Southeastern Conference me-
dia days in Hoover, Ala., Wednesday.
By ANDREW ABRAMSON
Alligator Staff Writer
aabramson@alligator.org
HOOVER, Ala. Before
making his official Southeastern
Conference debut on Wednesday,
Urban -Meyer was asked about
his first stop in Gainesville. -
It occurred more than 20 years
ago, when Meyer was a reserve
defensive back at Cincinnati. The
Bearcats, serving as UF's home-
coming feast in 1984, fell to the
Gators 48-17.
Meyer never imagined that
two decades later, he would
enter the SEC Football Media
Days as one of the highest-profile
first-year coaches in conference
history.
"There was some really pretty
girls up in the stands. I was 19
years old," said Meyer of his 1984
visit to the Swamp.
"That kind of tells you where
my mind was. [UF had] very
good players and it was hot.
That's all I remember."
After months of anticipation
from the national media, Meyer
was the first SEC coach to take
the podium at Media Days.
Since arriving at UF, Meyer has
been praised for his bluntness
and honesty, but on Wednesday
there were no surprise state-
ments or shocking answers.
Instead, Meyer seemed hum-
bled by his SEC debut.
"My respect for the SEC goes
much further back than 2005,"
Meyer said. "If you would ask
me the last 19 years what I be-
lieve the best conference in col-
lege football was, I would have
said the SEC."
Meyer said that from top to
bottom he believes no conference
compares to the SEC.
"My respect for the SEC
goes much further back
than 2005. If you would
ask me the last 19 years
what I believe the best con-
ference in college football
was, I would have said the
SEC."
Urban Meyer
UF football coach
But while UF may have some
of the top athletes in the confer-
ence, Meyer knows that it takes
more than pure talent to win in
the SEC.
. "Athletes like we have in
Florida can run away with the
game," he said.
"Can we finish the deal and do
we have the toughness to hang in
there when things are not going
well? Those are the two [biggest]
questions."
Change In Approach
On the all-SEC preseason
coaches' team, no -team had more
recipients than UF.
But the first-year coach wants
a change in mentality. Last season,
under former coach Ron Zook,
the Gators fell apart in the fourth
quarter of several games, losing
their composure under pressure.
To Meyer, it's all about tough-
ness.
"My evaluation after mat
drills and spring practice was
[we are not a tough team],"
Meyer said. "That was the theme
of the summer, and I'm hoping
that the team [shows toughness
at] two-a-days."
Safety Jarvis Herring, who
served as UF's player represen-
tative along with Mike Degory,
admitted that the team didn't
have that tough mental edge
under Zook.
"Guys are actually scared of
making mistakes now," Herring
said. "[Last year] we got kind of
lax and we just started trying to
do our own things. We were just
being immature."
Herring said that in 2004,
there was a feeling that if the
Gators failed, they always had
next year.
Under Meyer, that attitude is
equal to heresy.
"The team is not just waiting

Press questions Meyer's system, finds offense belongs to Leak
HOOVER, Ala.
Somewhere, right now, there's a dad on a
family vacation who would sympathize
with Urban Meyer.
"Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Are
we there yet?"
Since day one, many members of the
media have incessantly bombarded the first-
year UF coach with a question, possessing an
almost equally obvious answer.
"Will your system work?"
"Can Chris Leak run your system?"
"Can your system work at Florida?"
"How will your system fare in the SEC?"
System, system, system, system.. .shut
up.
Yeah, you're sports writers. Sure, you've
played a lot of NCAA 2006.
But prove your football IQ with your
PlayStation and quit questioning the com-
petency of a coach who has done nothing
but win.
Before you go throwing the "S" word
around like that, tell me: What is Meyer's
system?
My best answer: one that racks up a ton of
points out of the shotgun.
Well, I guess I was also wrong.
Not with my answer but my question.
As Meyer explained at the SEC Football
Media Days on Wednesday, it's not his sys-
tem. It's not even a system at all.
His formula is simple: take your best play-
ers and get them the ball frequently.
Figure out a way for them to excel at what
they do best and score often.
As he explained Wednesday, it's not his
offense, it's Chris Leak's.
Bryan App
App-etite
for Receptions
bapp@alligator.org
As he has reiter-
ated time and again, it
wasn't Utah's system, it
was Alex Smith's.
Without these key
players, to whom the
offense is tailored,
Meyer's system doesn't
click that easily.
"As a matter of
fact, I took [Smith] out
a couple of times," Meyer said. "I wanted to
put him right back in:
"The system is in place. It's a player sys-
tem. What we try to do is see if you can make
plays. You are a talented guy. I have got to get
you the ball. That's what I do well."
Maybe we should believe him oih this
one. I mean, Smith, the No. 1 pick in the NFL
Draft, just signed a contract with the 49ers
worth only $8.2 million per year.
Sure, Meyer will face defenses in the
Southeastern Conference quicker and stron-
ger than any Mountain West team would
ever dream of recruiting.
. Of course, he'll close the gap by trading
in his Utah Yugos for Florida Ferraris on the
other side of the ball.
But Meyer's system goes beyond mere
athleticism.
"Balancing mental and physical abilities
is his thing," senior center Mike Degory said.
."He's not just concerned about a player's
performance, he's also concerned about the
player.
"Building a relationship, that's his thing."
So will innovation and unity work in the
SEC? Well, we'll find out.
U While it seemed that Gators'
pitcher Alan Home would leave
for the pros, the ace may stick
around for a senior season. For
the complete story, see page 27.

Fulmer back in '05
By IAN FISHER
Alligator Staff Writer
ifisher@alligator.org
HOOVER, Ala. Steve Spurrier
was not the only coach making a re-
turn to the Southeastern Conference
Media Days on Wednesday.
Back after taking a year off was
Tennessee coach Phillip Fulmer,
who didn't make the trip last sea-
son because his attorneys advised
against attending what he called
a "legal circus." Last year, Fulmer
was fined $10,000 by Commissioner
Mike Slive for not attending. He
had to answer questions over a
speakerphone.
Fulmer was advised not to at-
tend last year because of lawsuits
against him regarding his talking
to the NCAA about possible viola-
tions at Alabama.
"I really regret that I wasn't able
to be here last year and hate all the
circumstances that kept .me from
being here last year," Fulmer said.
"I haven't seen the commissioner
yet, but if you see him, make sure
h e knows that I was here, because
it can be expensive if you don't
show up."
Fulmer said, there were threats
to his family on his cell phone, but
after his opening speech, he refused
to comment on the whole situation
regarding the lawsuits.
However, Fulmer never had any
second thoughts about attending
this year.
"I am glad to be here," he said.
"This kicks off our season. It has
for a lot of years and the volatil-
ity of our profession and the high
expectations that are out there for
coaches these days, you know, we
don't get to exchange like this very
often with this many people and
tell folks about our programs. I like
that. As much as you think I.don't,
I like it."
Fulmer maintained that he did
the right thing throughout the
lawsuits and
Southeastern defended
Conference himself for
trying to
keep the game clean.
"They usually have their own
selfish reasons for [cheating] and
we have seen it as gamblers do it,
bad agents or their runners do it
to our kids, and bad boosters do
it," he said. "I truly believe that
we all have an obligation and
responsibility to keep our game
clean of these people to the best of
our abilities."
Fulmer said he got-a great recep-
tion from the people in Alabama
despite all the recent off-field
drama.
"I'd like to get back to where
we have a completely great, clean,
tough, hard-fought rivalry, and
have none of this other stench in
it," he said. "Whether we can get
to that, I don't know, but I have
no hard feelings against anybody
that's a true Alabama fan."
Meyer: UF admiration is 'old news'
MEYER, from page 24
to play another season. We're-
waiting to hopefully do some
great things," Herring said.
"It's a lot more exciting.
You have a new life, it's like
you have a new breath. We
have a chance to win."
Spurrier Connection
Meyer couldn't escape
questions about former UP
coach and icon Steve Spurrier,
especially since Spurrier took
the same podium just three
hours later as the head coach
of South Carolina.
When asked about the
pressure of living up to
Spurrier's success, Meyer re-
iterated comments made last
year when he said he became
a UF fan in the '90s because of
Spurrier. However, he didn't
seem very eager to tell the tale
again.
"That is past history,"
Meyer said. "That's old
news."
Spurrier, a crowd-pleaser
during his 40 minutes at the
microphone, was asked about
his interaction with the UF
coach since Meyer took the
job, and whether Meyer has
the temperament that' can
handle major expectations at
Florida.
"[Meyer] has had an excel-
lent track record. He's done
well," Spurrier said.,
"There's no reason to
think he's not going to do
well there. But then agaii'., my
job is not to promote all the
coaches around the league."
Chinese calander gives Gamecocks hope
SPURRIER, from page 28
president don't come and tell him what to
do, unless he's cheating or losing too much,".
Spurrier said.
"I know we're not going to cheat, and I
hope we're not going to lose too much, so'
hopefully I won't see the A.D. or president
talking football with me."
"Hopefully" being the key word.
The coach once hated for his cockiness
seemed to remain cautiously humble about
his Gamecocks.
Leading a South Carolina team devastated
by off-field incidents and facing potentially
severe penalties after revealing 10 NCAA
rules violations, Spurrier isn't ready to enter-
tain talk of heated rivalries be it with Vols
or Gators.
"We need to beat somebody first before
those guys are going to worry about South
Carolina,", Spurrier said. "Some people are
going to make us their rivals when we haven't
beaten them much at all.
"Hopefully we can get respect, but we
have to earn it."
At least the Gamecocks have a little history
and superstition on their side.
According to Chinese
S horoscope, 2005 is the year of
the rooster and so was 1969.
., ... | And aside from a 2001
-.....- Outback Bowl victory, the
South Carolina faithful have
had nothing to cheer ab6ui
since.
Spurrier "In 1969 South Carolina
won the ACC championship.
We went 6-0 in ACC that year, and it was year
of the rooster," Spurrier said.
"[This] is the year of the rooster so don't
bet too much against the Gamecocks, even
though we're big underdogs. We've got the
rooster on our side. That's about the only

SEC officials present guidelines for instant replay
By ANDREW ABRAMSON
Alligator Staff Writer
aabramson@alligator.org
HOOVER, Ala. If instant
replay existed a year ago, and
UF had defeated Tennessee in the
second game of the season, who
knows where former coach Ron
Zook would be today.
I A controversy with the game
.clock, along with a personal foul
called on Dallas Baker that ap-
peared to be equally the fault
of his Tennessee counterpart,
had critics screaming for instant
replay. UF fans especially said
instant replay could have saved,
the season.
Not so fast.
Southeastern Conference coor-
dinator of officials Bobby Gaston
officially laid out the guidelines
for the newly implemented in-
stant replay system Wednesday at
SEC Football Media Days, but he
made it clear that under the new
rules, nothing would have been
reversed in Knoxville.
"The instant replay deal has
tried to keep the replay people out
of actually officiating the game.
They're only there to correct the
mistake that they made," Gaston
said. "If we had to watch the
clock every play and determine
whether they started it properly
or improperly, that's real tedious
thing, I can assure you."
As for the personal fouls,
Gaston said that in the South
Carolina-Clemson brawl last year,
they couldn't determine all the
participants until the Wednesday
after the game. Basically, Gaston
said it would be too difficult to
review fights in many situations.
"I didn't think we should stop
a game until Wednesday," Gaston
joked.
But replay has finally arrived
in the SEC and much of college
football, though it's different than
the system used
in the NFL.
Each SEC
football stadium
nician will sit will have a
"We decid secured replay
booth equipped
with a DVSport
Gaston Digital Replay
system. A replay
official, communicator and tech-
nician will sit in the booth.
"We decided to do this rather
than having a phone at the side-
lines like most people do because
I was told by the NFL people
that when you put a phone right
there on the stands itself, that you
have got people hanging over the
stands [as a distraction], as well as
coaches hollering at you," Gaston
said.
He also said that with this
technology, the replays will be
quick. Most decisions could be
made between the whistle and
the beginning of the next play,
meaning the already drawn out
college football games shouldn't
run much longer.
Coaches will have no say as
to whether plays are reviewed or
not. However, the Instant Replay
Official' will review every poten-
tially review-able play. So fans
and even coaches will not neces-
sarily know if a play is being re-
viewed unless it is overturned.
Gaston said that while coaches
cannot ask for a replay, there are
other motives for coaches to have
their voices heard.
"They can encourage tfs by
taking a time out and turning
and staring at the replay booth,
and that might prompt us a little
bit into action to take it a little bit
farther," Gaston said.
While there could possibly
be a few kinks in the beginning
of the season, Gaston anel the
rest of the SEC expect a smooth
transition.
"We're walking on uncharted
waters," Gaston said. "So, sub-
sequently, we don't know totally
what to expect, although we did
practice this equipment at the
Kentucky spring game and we
found, amazingly, that we will be
able to review far more players
and plays than we thought we
could."
Horne remains unsigned, may return for senior year

UF pitcher Alan Home has until the first day of fall classes to decide whether or not to
sign a professional contract.
By TIM CASEY
Alligator Writer
tcasey@alligator.org
Alan Home is getting multiple lessons in
marketing this summer.
Not only is the junior pitcher studying mar-
keting in the classroom, but he's also learning
from first-hand experience.
Home was chosen in the 11th round
of the 2005 MLB Amateur Draft by the
New York Yankees with the 349th selec-
tion, but has not yet signed with the team.
Previously, it had been assumed that the ace
pitcher wouldn't return to UF for a senior
season.
"We were talking to them pretty heavily,
but we haven't heard back from them in over a
week and a half," Home said Wednesday.
"They pretty much signed everyone around
me, guys that were drafted behind me and in
front of me," Home said. "It will probably be
something that comes down to the wire."
He knows something about contract nego-
tiations from personal experience.
Home was drafted in the first round by the
Cleveland Indians in 2001 out of high school,
and was a 30th-round choice of the Anaheim
Angels in the 2004 MLB Draft.
"About three weeks ago, I had lunch with
the local scout [for the Yankees]," Home said.
"That's the only face-to-face meeting we've
had. I've talked to their scouting director on
the phone."
Home had a 4.05 ERA in 113.1 innings,
compiling a team-best 10-2 record.
He made his last appearance of the season'
June 23 in the College World Series, but left the
game after a fourth inning leg injury in UF's
6-3 win against Arizona State.
"I just pulled my hamstring," Home said.
"Time is what it takes to heal. I needed some
rest after a long year."
"Regardless of whether I'm back
in the fall or I sign, I won't throw
again until the fall."
Alan Horne
UF pitcher
Home has spent his time since the CWS
rehabilitating his leg and resting.
"Regardless of whether I'mr back in ite fall
or I sign, I won't throw again until the fall,"
Home said.
Should Home turn down a contract with
the Yankees, the 2006 Gators would have a for-
midable lineup that could improve on the best
season in school history. UF lost to Texas in the
championship round of the CWS.
"I've talked with Coach [Pat] McMahon,
he wants what's best for me," Home.-said.
"Obviously, he wants to have me back. He
knows I'm ready for professional baseball."
The major league trading deadline is
Sunday. To make a push towards the post-
season and unseat the defending World Series.
champion Boston Red Sox, the Yankees are
looking for help.
"They've traded off a lot of their talent so
they're trying to build up their system," Home
said.

SEC FOOTBALL
Spurrier's return to SEC becomes main attraction
Copyrighted Material

By BRYAN APP
Alligator Staff Writer
bapp@alligator.org
Hoover, Ala. A sign in
the lobby welcomed attend-
ees to this year's Southeastern
Conference Football Media
Days.
And if the Wynfrey Hotel
had a marquee, it would
undoubtedly read: "Steve
Spurrier Back, Tonight Only."
A national coach of the
year followed by the coach
of this season's projected SEC
champion opened the media
festivities.,
But there was little doubt
who was the headliner.
"It's good to be back," said
Spurrier, greeting the crowd
hanging on his every word.
"I've missed you guys. It's a
lot more fun hanging around
the SEC than the other league
I was in for a couple years."
Escaping from his two-
season disaster with the
Washington Redskins,
Spurrier made his SEC debut
Wednesday, picking up where
he left off when he dumped
UF in January 2002 as the
conference's focal figure.
His rivals still can't stand
him, but his opponents con-
tinue to respect him.
UF coach Urban Meyer
made clear the respect he held
for the Spurrier's SEC-domi-
nating Gators teams.
"It's good to be back.
I've missed you guys.
It's a lot more fun hang-
ing around the SEC than
the other league I was in
for a couple years."
Steve Spurrier
USC football coach
Even Spurrier's long-time
nemesis Tennessee coach
Phillip Fulmer seemed to of-
fer his own form of tribute.
"I don't need to give any
advice to Steve," said Fulmer,
who's Volunteers defeated
UF only three times during
Spurrier's 12-year tenure.
"He's got all the answers
anyway."
"We didn't beat him
enough at Florida. When I
heard he was first coming
back I said, 'Ah, crap,' or
something like that."
But the man who once
said, "You can't spell Citrus
without UT," poking fun at
the Volunteers' string of sec-
ond place SEC finishes during
his tenure,-has seemed to have
toned down his inflammatory
rhetoric.
A miserable 12-20 two-sea-
son record in the big leagues
can tend to do that.
"Sometimes, a head coach
may only be as good as his
players," Spurrier said. "I
was lucky to have some great
teams at Florida, no doubt
about it.
"But you learn to appreci-
ate that all coaches work their
tails off to give players the
best chance to win games."
The golf and sunshine in
D.C. just doesn't compare to
that of the Palmetto State, but,
as Spurrier indicated, a lack
of institutional control also
played a large factor in his
collegiate rebirth.
"Every NFL organization
does things a little differ-
ent, but [with] every college
team that I know of, the head
coach is not influenced, and
the [athletics director] and

VOLUME 98 ISSUE 163 the independent florida rsity of Florida Published by Campus Communications Inc. of Gainesvle, Flonida We Inform. You Decide. \Recyc6 THURSDAY, JULY 28, 2005 Editor's note: This is the last in a series of stories taking a closer look at the hidden structures of Student Government. By DAVID COHEN Alligator Writer dcohen@alligator.org Student Government is full of it. It's full of $11 million of student money, to be exact. Officials in SG and the UF administration say they agree the power over that money isn't leaving students' hands. The newest jewel in the crown of UF's top brass, Vice President for Student Affairs Patricia Telles-Irvin, shocked SG officials when she instituted what many SG members have called the "first administrative veto in SG history." It's actually the second in as many years, according to Student Atturs onctals but her June veto of $200,000 of student money allocated for Gator Growl caused some student leaders to rethink their strategies. Student Body President Joe Goldberg said the veto was not welcome "(That was a) new thing for SG itself, someluing we are not used to," he said. Senate President Diane Kassin said her sirprise at the decision led her to devote significant Goldberg concern to notions of student authority. UFstuden tbody "The [veto is] as involved as you cartpossipresident bly get," she said. "We don't expect it to happen again." Telles-Irvin said despite numerous e-mails from students praising or condemning the veto, she stands behind her decision. "People are going to have different reactions," she said. "[SG officials] have learned that in their own roles." "I will challenge them, and they will challenge me. My role-is certainly to be part of their education." UF President Bernie Machen has veto power over allocation of money by the Student Senate. Historically, presidents have delegated the responsibility to those in Telles-Irvin's position, and circumstances were no different when she arrived last October. Goldberg said control of the Activity & Service Fee, paid by every student as part of each credit hour, is essential for SG success.

Tuition increases for new UF students will begin next semester. Mdit -!q-,ises for nn w students By STEPHEN MAGRUDER Alligator Writer smagruder@alligator.org Being new to UF will be slightly more expensive in the Fall due to tuition-criteria changes based on a student's status as "new" or "continuing" that now factor into determining how much he or she pays. Students already pay different tuition rates as undergraduates and graduates as well as Florida residents versus out-of-state students, but their time -or lack thereof -spent at UF now will factor into the equation as well. "This is a first time ever," said Stuart Hoskins, senior associate controller at UF. -He said officials at the Office of the University Registrar and the Office of the Provost largely were behind the changes.

The secured-site system, as named by the 0 UF coach Urban Meyer speaks at the Southeastern conference media days in Hoover, Ala., on Wednesday. See story, pg. 24. Senate's online-voting committee, would make every polling location on campus open to every student. The measure also explicitly banned "unsecured-site" Internet voting, which would allow students to vote from any computer using their GatorLink accounts. The secured-site system, passed by the Senate 60-2, will save approximately $30,000 each election. Senate President Diane Kassim expressed "Copyrighted Material Syndicated Content Available from Commercial News Providers" concern that returning students who hear "online" voting has been implemented will expect their home computers to Student become polling booths.

2, ALLIGATOR E THURSDAY, JULY 28, 2005 News Today CAMPUS Panhellenic rush nears Recruitment week is drawing closer for UF women looking to join one of Panhellenic Council's 16 sororities this Fall. Panhellenic recruitment begins with an orientation at 5 p.m. in the Reitz Union on Aug. 16, followed by a week of four rounds of "parties." The "parties" are meet-and-greets between potential and current sorority members at the chapter houses. Panhellenic Membership Vice President Courtney Weir said she expects 1,300-1,400 students to register for recruitment and about 1,200 to go through round one. Weir said students are encouraged to submit applications, available at the Panhellenic Web site, and application fee of $70 as soon as possible. The fee rises to $85 after Aug. 7 and $100 if paid at orientation. Weir said the benefit of joining a sorority is the "true sense of a home away from home for first-time students" but warns it isn't for everyone. "It can be overwhelming for some students," she said. "I encourage any women questioning their ability to go through recruitment to sign up and go the first day and realize they can withdraW at any point in the process." UF freshman Brooke Mahoney, 18, said she made the decision to rush this Fall partly due to her older sister's experience with-Greek life. "(She) seems to really enjoy it," Mahoney said. "It just looks like fun and a good way to get involved and meet people." -KYLIE CRAIG UF offers podcasts of campuS news and events UF took another step into the digital age by joining a small number of schools to share campus news through podcasts.

THURSDAY, JULY 28, 2005 M ALLIGATOR, 3 ACADEMICS Exclusive chemistry classes hope to lure engineers By RESHELLE SMITH Alligator Contributing Writer They design computers, cars, theme parks and space shuttles, but there just aren't enough of them. To lure more students to engineering this Fall, College of Engineering majors will have eight sections of general chemistry all to themselves, two of which will be for women only, said Richard Dickinson, chairman of the task force that recommended the change and a chemical engineering professor. Dicldnson said statistics have shown when students do poorly in general chemistry, they are less likely to stay in the College of Engineering. The task force noticed many students switch to different majors after one or two years, before they take any engineering classes, he said. After some investigation, the task force found a link between grades in chemistry and the probability students would stay in engineering. It also found surveys of those who left engineering indicated a negative experience in general chemistry Jeffrey Keaffaber, a lecturer and undergraduate coordinator for UF's Department of Chemistry, said the chemistry sequence is "make or break" and often determines whether students remain in engineering. Every engineering major must take general chemistry, but without this change they would be mixed into sections containing students from all majors. Dickinson said the all-femalP sections, which women voluntarily register for, are designed to bring more women into the engineering field. On a national level, only 19 percent of all engineers are women, while at UF, a university where approximately 53 percent of students are female, only 22 percent of students in the College of Engineering are women, said Deborah Mayhew, an assistant director in the college. To compare, in the College of Education 84 percent of students are female. In the College of Journalism and Communications, 74 percent of students are female. And in the College of Medicine, 52 percent of students are women. "You finally see the realworld applications of science -that's engineering." .Jeffrey Keaffaber chemistry lecturer Jennifer Curtis, chairwoman of the chemical engineering department and one of only two women who chair a department in the College of Engineering, said incorrect ideas about engineering plague the field. "A lot of females have mnisconceptions about what engineering is, and a lot of that is probably from the media," Curtis said. In lower-level classes, like general chemistry, students don't learn enough engineering, which can perpetuate negative stereotypes. In the first years of college, engineering students learn the fundamentals of scienceand lack exposure to engineering, Dickinson said. This change will incorporate as much engineering as possible into lower-level classes, Dickinson said. The new sections will give future engineers perspective on the relevance of chemistry to their future career. All of the engineering discussion sections will be taught by highly qualified graduate students from the College of Engineering, he said. They will be able to incorporate more examples of problems students might face in the industry. He said he hopes this will raise awareness of what engineers really do and dismiss negative stereotypes. Dickinson also said the new sections will allow students to meet and become friends with other engineering students. Keaffaber said he will teach two lectures of engineering sections, and he will make some adjustments to the curriculum to target it toward those students. One of the topics he will discuss is how a. fireworks show is put together and the chemistry behind it. "You finally see the real world applications of science -that's engineering," Keaffaber said. Dickinson said if the program is effective in raising grades and keeping engineers, it will continue and could spread to other classes such as physics and calculus.

4, ALLIGATOR N THURSDAY, JULY 28, 2005 ITU ,ET L iFE mUfF grads to teach In Jaan By MELISSA FILIPKOWSKI Alligator Contributing Writer Cara Lakin doesn't speak any Japanese. She has never been to Asia and doesn't know anyone on the entire continent. But in three days Japan will be home to her and six other UF graduates. Seven UF graduates will depart for Japan on July 30 as participants in the Japan Exchange and Teaching program, or JET. Sponsored by the government of Japan, the participants will spend at least one year working beside Japanese English-language teachers at junior and senior high schools in rural areas of Japan. The UF participants are Lakin, Devin Casadey, Seth Eason, Julie Rodriguez, Steven Shulmister, Jonathan Smith and James Wadsworth. "Participants will go to different schools in rural areas of Japan that have had limited access to American language and culture," Japanese Consulate spokeswoman Darci Kissinger said. Lakin, who graduated in May from the UF Elementary Education Pro-Teach program, will be teaching English to middle school and kindergarten students in Osaka Prefecture, Japan. The JET program is offered in approximately 40 countries with more than 30,000 participants since its start in 1987. This year, there are more than 1,300 Americans in the program, 36 from Florida. The JET program aims to enhance foreign language skills in Japan and promote international exchange at the local level through fostering ties between the Japanese and young adults from other countries. Lakin's interest in the program began after she had a professor who had traveled to Japan. "I was totally inspired to go," she said. "In the back of my mind, I knew it was something I would want to do." Rodriguez was a Japanese Language and Literature major and Shulmister was a Decision Information and Sciences major with a minor in Japanese. The participants were required to pass an application screening process and an interview to qualify for the program. Each-participant will receive a salary equivalent to approximately $30,000 a year depending on the exchange rate and an apartment to live in near his or her assigned school. Lakin knows very little about her apartment and school but says she isn't too worried about it. "I was totally inspired to go. In the back of my mind, I knew it was something I would want to do." Cara Lakin UF alumna "I have received a few photos of the apartment," she said, "but I'm open for-anything." Lakin also received a letter of welcome and a packet from the Osaka School Board. Overall, Lakin said she hopes to gain a general knowledge of Japanese culture and the landscape of the country during her time there. -"I am hoping to be fully immersed in the Japanese culture while also learning more about myself," she said. "Everything is going to be new and exciting." To qualify for the JET program in the United States, applicants must hold a bachelor's degree, be a U.S. citizen, have excellent English skills, be under 40, not lived in Japan for three or more years of the last eight years and have a general interest in Japanese culture. Applications for next. year's program will be available in September and are due in the beginning of December. For more information, please call the Consulate General of Japan in Miami at (305) 530-9090. THE PROGRAM CAME ABOUT AFTER SEVERAL SEWAGE SPILLS IN GAINESVILLE. By CRYSTAL HENRY Alligator Writer chenry@alligator.org Just as the squeaky wheel gets the grease, greasy pipes got the attention of Gainesville Regional Utilities. GRU intern and Alligator con.tributing writer Melissa Filipkowski said she and fellow intern, Student Senate President Diane Kassim, are in charge of a campaign to educate the public about proper grease disposal after three recent back-to-back sewage spills caused by grease clogs contaminated local creeks. "We call ourselves the Grease Team," Filipkowski said. Last weekend, she and Kassim set up a table outside of Winn-Dixie on Southwest 16th Avenue, offering information about proper disposal of household grease and gave out free grease disposal kits. The Grease Trapper kits include information about preventing grease clogs, a plastic container known as the Grease Trapper, grease disposal bags and a postcard to order more bags or an additional Grease Trapper. Filipkowski said GRU started giving out the Grease Trappers two weeks ago. About 500 have been distributed already with Kassimn 5,000 rnore slated to be given out. She and Kassim will be at stores like Winn-Dixie, Albertsons and Wal-Mart every Saturday from 10 a.m. until 1 p.m. and in the GRU lobby Friday afternoons from 3 to 5 p.m. handing out the kits and information about grease disposal. Florida Department of Environmental Protection spokeswoman Jill Johnson said she believes the reason for the grease clogs is that people aren't educated about the effects of grease in the sewer system. Johnsonsaid she didn't think disposing of grease by pouring it down the kitchen sink was a problem when she was in college. Her mother always took care of that when she was at home, so she didn't know any better. "Anything that educates about grease disposal is good," she said. The department's Wastewater Compliance Assurance Supervisor Melissa Long said the department is looking into whether restaurants or residents caused the sewage spills but said that "GRU is pretty aggressive in their maintenance," and that the Grease Trappers should help. Fihpkowski said despite the three recent spills, GRU is about 25 percent below the national average of wastewater spill incidents. Security concerns dominate Senate debate of Internet-based election system VOTING from page 1 as proof of his or her age. "You give him your buddy's that he lent you last week to take a (chemistry) test," Nelson proposed. Former Impact Party spokeswoman Allison Cullin said all she needs to vote in general elecbons is her voter registration, not photo ID. Sen. Jason Lutin said many students know his GatorLink password, arguing the security of an unsecured system could be defeated. oatorLink account policy prohibits sharing of account information. Violations can result in loss of access to UF computer services. The risk of voter coercion, that voters may be watched and influenced while they vote at their computers, was also the focus of a round of discussion at the meeting. Sen. Mike Belle compared the unsecuredsite system to absentee ballots that candidates sometimes bring door-to-door, requesting votes. With absentee ballots, he said, others are free to watch over voters' shoulders. Former Student Body presidential candidate MacKenzie Moritz suggested there was irony in the coercion fears. "I think a lot of the students trying to make the argument about coercion are already strongly influenced by the organizations that they're in," he said, adding that he is "not antiGreek by any means." Online-voting committee member Sen. Susan Henriques wrote three amendments to the bill that would make room in SG statutes for the unsecured-site Student online voting option. All Government three were voted down. "I do not believe we listened to our constituents tonight at all," Henriques said at the close of the meeting. Between the online-voting committee meeting Sunday and Tuesday's Senate meeting, 63 students sent form letters via the Progress Party's Web site asking their senators to support Henriques' amendment. Online-voting connittee chairman Sen. Jared Hernandez said it was very important to him that his committee be nonpartisan. The bill was sponsored by the leaders of all three major SG parties -the Impact Party, the Access Party and the Gator Party. However, Kassim said three committee members approached her with concerns that Hernandez was biased in his leadership. Moritz suggested this partiality showed through in the terms "secured" and "unsecured." Both systems would use 128-bit encryption not even the U.S. govemmnent can break.

THURSDAY, JULY 28, 20059 ALLIGATOR, 5 Relations between Criser Hall and Reitz Union recovering after veto ADMINISTRATION, from page 1 "The only group that can allocate those funds is SG," Goldberg said. "Administration can't step in in the process. He meets with Telles-Irvin twice per month. "That's working out well for us," lie said. I think that our communication has gotten better since we've had those meetings." Senate President Pro-Tempore John Boyles said Telles-Irvin was just new to the process when she made her decision. "She has said that she did not really know what was going on, what was coming with this bill," he said. Boyles added that despite initially hearing rumors some administrators think of SG as "just a bunch of kids playing governmentt" he hasn't formed strong opinions on the UF-SG relationship yet. "It's so soon into the terms of our new administration that it wouldn't be fair to make judgments like that at this point," he said. As president, Goldberg is the only student member of the UF Board of Trustees and said the veto is one for the history books. "I think that the administration realizes that we are an important aspect of the university," he said. "They have not by any means talked down to me. They appreciate what I say about students. They want to hear first hand about what is going on on-campus." "She (Telles-Irvin) has said that she did not really know what was going on." John Boyles Student Senate president pro-tempore And Telles-Irvin said she thinks SG leaders are on top of their game. "We have very capable (student) leaders," she said. "We have a system that runs well. I think that most leaders in SG take their roles very seriously." But Telles-Irvin said there remains much work to be done to make SG more accessible and more relevant to students. "It's always a challenge," she said. "We're all in this together to make this a better institution. This is a partnership and I plan to work closely with them. They play a very integral part in advancing the institution forward." Boyles said that despite not hearing of any resentment in the Reitz Union corridors, SG members stay on their toes a little more. "Obviously, it will continue to affect all of us, he said. "It's history, so it's going to affect us. It will affect the way that we approach things in the future. It's something that we think a little more about than we did in the past." But Boyles said he does not see senators basing their decisions on the possibility of a veto. "We need to put it behind us and move on," he said. Biggest tuition increases affect graduate students in professional programs TUITION, from page 1 department chairs July 15 listed new students as either undergraduates starting in Fall, graduate students seeking new degrees, non-military students re-enrolling after more than two semesters and all non-degree seeking students. Continuing students must have been admitted before Fall 2005 and enrolled in either Spring or Sunmer. Hoskins estimated UF received about $197 million in tuition from its 48,000 students for the fiscal year ending June 30, meaning the average student pays about $4,100 per year to attend classes.

6, ALLIGATOR E THURSDAY, JULY 28, 2005 Editorial It's go time. We at the Department of Darts and Laurels realize we don't have much more room this Summer to praise the heroes and punish the wicked, so we're not taking the moments we have left lightly. The world's moving forward -Greg Maddux has 3,000 strikeouts, Microsoft is testing a new version of Windows, and the 62-year-old vocal cords of Mick Jagger will shred out yet another set of tunes for a Rolling Stones album due in September. "The band came up with the title, 'A Bigger Bang,' reflecting their fascination with the scientific theory about the origin of the universe," the group's official Web site proclaims. Something tells us age is not the greatest of the Stones' problems. But UF has problems of its own, and with that understatement of the semester we kick off the latest edition of. Darts &La&fure s1&Whenever we extend that frail olive branch toward the students who govern us, it feels like we're just poking a sixalarm fire. No complaints though -as we said last week, we're in the kitchen for a reason. But couldn't our student leaders wait one week before shooting our praise down with a poison arrow? It's high time to shoot back with a do-what-studentswant-for-a-change DART to the groups pushing the socalled "online voting" measure that passed first reading at Student Senate. Repeat: a DART, a DART, a DART to all involved with the passage of the travesty we pain to call "secured-site" online voting. Besides its misleading language, the bill as voted for by the Senate doesn't even mandate such a system for future elections -it just opens the possibility while also specifically making true Internet voting illegal. So when we're waiting in line in the heat this September to reach our "online" voting machine, we all know whom to thank. And now, to prove we can eat our words under the right circumstances, we'll blast off to Cape Canaveral, where a notable event finally took place Tuesday. At long last, we can hand the you're-still-too-old-butcharm-lasts-a-long-time LAUREL to NASA for launching the space shuttle into orbit for the first time in more than two years. We're also happy that the schedule leading to serious manned exploration has been pushed up so that the venerable shuttle can end its career in 2010, and we can get back to the moon by 2012. For now, though, let's focus on getting Discovery's crew back safely. Finally, as we land firmly back on the ground after SG's rug-tugging and our NASA-courtesy trip through the stratosphere, we stick a we-miss-two-dollars-how-do-younot-notice-a-million DART to the foreheads of Gainesville City Commission staffers. According to a story published Wednesday in the Gainesville Sun, city staff knew for a month or more that insurance broker Arthur J. Gallagher and Co. kept $1.3 million in refund money intended to go back to the city and Gainesville Regional Utilities. But commissioners didn't know about it until Monday night -they weren't brought up to speed even when the Commission deliberated on extending Gallagher's contract. Our tax dollars at work.

Coumn td Rational thinking should be nonpartisan Iust for a change of pace, I'm going to step away from what's going wrong at UF and in our society and spend some time on the basics -I don't think some of you have een paying attention in class. Today's topic is something I've been trying to beat into your heads since my first day on the job: rational thinking. It's no secret I don't have any use for extremists of any kind -especially not the bleeding-heart liberals and conservatives we so often see (and, unfortunately, hear) here in the land of the free. As a former conservative, I find those fanatical liberals to be the scarier of the two: Both do their best to destroy the fabric of society by fighting for ideals shared by only a fraction of the country, but liberals also have no practical sense of what the gov-ernment has the resources to accomplish. I You ask, "How can I tell if I am one of these outrageous llberals, or if I simply have a healthy respect for civil liberties?" In order to help you on your path to self discovery -and recovery, if the results turn out that way -I present to you a foolproof method of determining your level of liberalhood: the "Ally McBeal" test. You may remember "Ally McBeal" as a silly little TV show about a silly little law firm that always got itself into boringly silly situations. In one episode, a businesswoman and single mother sued her employers for gender-based discrimination. This woman was one of those I'll-work-80-hours-perweek-and-have-no-life-so-I-can-be-partner-when-I'm-35 types that you admire, despise or feel pity for, depending on your personal beliefs. After she became pregnant, as one would expect, she had to cut down on those hours quite a bit. Her new, fulfilling life as a self-supporting single mom was just dandy until she was passed over for a promotion. The job, of course, went to I've-been-working-80-hoursper-week-so-I-can-get-a-promotion-even-though-lI-haven'tworked-here-as-long-as-that-other-lady guy. Thus, the lawsuit: She says she was discriminated against because the only reason she stopped workmg 80-hour workweeks was because she had a kid. The argument from her lawyers Matt Sanchez was that it was an affront to humanPure Foppery ity to deny a promotion to someone msanchez@alligator.org for spending less time at work and more time with their kids -which only females did. Since this was American TV, Ms. Businesswoman won the suit and everyone considered it a victory for civil liberties and a savage blow to the old-boy country-club machine. So, here's the test: If your brain hurts from the thought that such flaming ridiculousness could even be conceived of, then you are a rational human being. If you agree, on the other hand, that the company should be punished for giving a promotion to a guy who put in obscenely long hours instead of to the woman who cut her workload in half, then you're a U.S.-government-hasenough-money-to-fix-every-problem-that-exists-and-everyone-should-be-equal-except-white-males-who-should-bewatched-so-they-don't-take-too-many-good-jobs liberal. But just so my rational liberal buddies don't feel left out, this scenario can be adapted to sniff out the conservatives. Their first thought upon hearing the details of the case was "Screw the lawsuit; whoever let that chick out of the kitchen in the first place should be thrown in jail." So remember kids: If any of your friends fail this test, they are dangerous extremists and should be made fun of as often as possible. Put that peer pressure to good use. If you failed the test, console yourself with a bit of advice from our country's finest instructional media, G.I. Joe: Knowing is half the battle. Matt Sanchez is a journalists senior.

TIHURSDAY, JULY 28, 2005 I ALLIGATOR, 7 Cokiumn Airline comedy can fly, but beware corporate-shtick takeoff PROVIDENCE, R.I. during the descent of my recent Delta flight into Atlanta, the flight attendant came on the intercom to list the connecting flights. With a deadpan voice, he began: "I'm now going to read a very long and boring list." He then paused for laughter that never came. This wisecrack was just one of several made by Delta Dan throughout the flight. Each one seemed forced and out-of-place. My discomfort with these jokes puzzled me until I spoke with Patrick Smith, author of the book "Ask the Pilot: Everything You Need to Know About Air Travel." After echoing my feelings, he emphasized what he sees as the bigger picture -that airlines are tying to be funny without first figuring out how to communicate effectively on a normal, professional level. "Why should airlines expect people to appreciate in-flight comedy when they can't even offer a coherent explanation about things like delays or lost luggage?" he asked me in an e-mail. "Airlines try to present difficult, complex situations in the simplest terms, and the end result is condescending baby talk: 'Sorry, we have to bump you because the plane is out of balance."' In other words a bit of mutual respect is needed before the employee can say, as a Pacific Southwest Airlines attendant once did, "Ladies and gentlemen, I'd like to welcome you to Honolulu. Unfortunately, we are in Fresno." In Smith's opinion, one carrier stands out in the struggling indusAndrew Stein try as having U-Wire successfully married good b u s i n e s s management with good humor: Southwest Airlines. Southwest gate agents often play games with delayed passengers, and their flight attendants sometines sing the safety instructions or affect an Elvis or Mr. Rogers accent. That's pretty funny. On the business side, Southwest's core values of humor and "luv" (the company's stock ticker symbol) have helped the carrier remain profitable after Sept. 11, 2001, while its big spoke-and-hub U.S. brothers struggle with expensive pilot contracts and fleet upkeep. Delta and Northwest may file for bankruptcy soon, joining USAirways and United in the hangar of shame. Southwest Airlines is the epitome of corporate humor. The reversal is poetic; after decades of stand-up monologues insulting air travel, we now have an airline famous for mocking itself. Airplane humor has made the round trip. As large companies focus on improving their "corporate culture," Southwest-style humor is spreading through the business world. Such staid institutions as IBM and Fidelity Investments, for example, have admitted to hiring "humor consultants" for up to $5,000 an hour. If this trend continues, hilarity might become a legitimate metric of the corporate makeover. Frankly, this trend worries me. When a company's signature trait is democratized for widespread use, something awful ensues: It becomes generic. I'm concerned about what will happen if humor becomes another component of crafting corporate strategy Will this be part of an MBA degree taught by a professor of corporate self-deprecation? And after management consultants begin recommending open mic time for the boss, what's next? Will humor follow "revenue streams" as the latest for-profit principle to invade nonprofit operational theory? Imagine donating blood in the care of Red Cross nurses who lighten the mood by wearing vampire teeth. Part of th6 surprise of a Delta employee joking is that Delta is famous for being serious and conservative. Just look at its bland moniker. Andrew K.

"We are pleased that Regal has identified the value that we have created over three generations in the movie theater business,"Eastern Federal Corporation CEO Carter Meiselman said in a press release. This marks the second buyout for Regal this summer. It closed a $31 million deal for seven theaters owned by R/C Theaters of Maryland. Nationally, Regal currently owns and operates 6,264 screens in 553 theaters in 40 states, representing about 18 percent of all indoor screens in the United States. Regal now dominates the local Gainesville market with moviegoers' only other option for new releases being privately owned Gator Cinemas, 6741 W Newberry Road. Regal may look like it has designated its plots with multiple plastic, red hotels on Boardwalk, but its competition could be viewed as a respectable yellow property with a house or two of its own. They might just be far enough apart for Gainesville to still have some film competition among its theaters. Gator Cinemas General Manager Chris Meeks said as long as the two theaters continue to show different movies, Regal's new ownership should have little competitive effect on the theater. However, he said if the two theaters started showing the same movies, there will be three theaters possibly showing the same films, which could be bad for business. However, there is little danger of this happening. The film studios dictate that movie theaters within three miles of each other can't play the same titles. But good or bad for Gainesville, some students would like to see movies at more than one location if it meant they would be able to view them earlier. "It's ridiculous that you can't go to a movie its opening night in Gainesville," said UF senior Erika Hughes. "It's always impossible to go see anything unless you buy your tickets way in Tim Casey/ Alligator Staff UF senior Jay Dodson and UF alumna Kelley Muffitt purchase tickets for "Wedding Crashers" at the Butler Plaza Regal Cinema on Wednesday afternoon. advance." While Regal Entertainment Group officially owned the Royal Park Stadium 16 as of July 22, the changes will not be in foll effect until final closing conditions -are settled in September. Movie prices for students will be regulated between Regal's two local theaters; both Regal Cinemas Gainesville 14 and Royal Park Stadium 16 will charge $6.75 for students. Gator Cinemas charges students $5. "We cater to the wallet," Meeks said. Representatives of -Regal Cinemas and Eastern Federal did not return repeated phone calls. By OLEE FOWLER and BRETT KELMAN Avenue Writers Whether it's being played on the frontier of the wild, wild West, the high-rollers table in Las Vegas, or the average American cigarsmoke-filled basement, whether you're playing five card or seven card, stud, draw or hold 'em, whether you're playing for cash, chips or both, one thing about poker has held true since its creation. It's a man's game. Or at least it was. Recently, the Travel Channel aired "World Poker Tour Ladies Night," which featured the top-six female poker players from around the world. Even the ladies of Wisteria Lane often meet and play a round of poker while gossiping away.

The growing success of both professional and casual female poker players could be attributed to male players' bad habit of underestimating them. "I play poker a lot at the Hard Rock in Tampa, and when I first sit down at the table, some of the guys question my ability to play or think I'll be easy to beat," said freshman Danielle Peterson. "But after a round or two, I show them I really can play and usually gain their respect pretty quickly."

REALTORS' E-mail: rbodensr@WatsonRealtyCorp.com New rock offerings hit or miss 'Thtor Agfstsl thte World Thor Smog Veil Records Like He-Man singing Bon Jovi or GWAR for Poison fans, Thor unleashes an onslaught of pop metal from the perspective of a Nordic god. If that description doesn't hook you, quickly browse over to the next CD review. For the rest of you, I will attempt to explain the grace and beauty of Thor's latest ode to the gods, "Thor Against the World." Thor (yes, that is his actual surname) has been providing multimedia entertainment from movies to music to rock n' roll comic geeks since the mid '70s. His latest creation shows that his B-talent status is well-deserved, for better or worse. The music is horrendous and extremely lactose friendly, with cheesy guitar solos hammered on top of even cheesier synths. Thankfully, the lyrics are borderline Shakespearean, withvheart-wrenching poetry like "Hey hey women, I wouldn't trade you for three/ Hey hey women, you mean a whole lot to me." The real gem of the CD is the accompanying music video for "Glimmer," which can be accessed when putting the disc in a computer. The video, which has special effects and acting straight from the Roger Corman School of Production, fits the song perfectly. "Thor Against the World" is awkward, pretentious, larger than life and unknowingly hilarious -all the components of a perfect cult CD. -.The Mtggs TThe Muggs Times Beach Records In their self-titled disc, the Muggs forego the last 20 years of rock music and put out a blues-rock record straight from Detroit, circa 1975. Unlike their revivalist contemporaries Jet and Kings of Leon, they lack any sort of modem day shimmer, which will keep them from the spotlight of their counterparts. Still, their rusty sound will enthuse purists and geeky music critics alike. Nothing about the Muggs is pretty, and it's easy to see why they proudly proclaim themselves to be the ugliest band in the world. There is nothing smooth about the constant thud of the rhythm section as they pound away relentlessly. The blistering guitar and blues-grit vocals create a grimy experience. The band members also are ugly. The standout track is the instrumental "Underway." Though by definition lacking the sleazy vocals of lead singer Danny, the groove generated by the three-piece is undeniable, on par with "Toys in the Attic"-era Aerosmith grooves. Despite their name, the Muggs refrain from mugging and deliver a straight-ahead rocker that serves as a remmder of how sometimes to move forward, you need to step back. Ptunches World Leaders Pretend Warner Bros. Records "Punches" is a completely self-contradictory album, from lush orchestration with raspy vocals to minute-long piano pieces alongside eight-minute epics, all held together by a challenging pop-music sound. Proof that rock isn't meant to be logical, "Punches" is a beautifully crafted album that should appeal to everyone listening to music today. World Leaders Pretend bring together three distinct sounds into most of its songs that surprisingly create a cohesive experience. First is the surprising vocals of band leader Keith Ferguson, who slurs his words together when not hitting startlingly high notes. Behind him is the pounding drums of Arthur Mintz, who creates innovative rhythms in an unlikely situation. Holding everything together is dense, imaginative instrumentation with an orchestra, guitar and glockenspiel all coming together to form a Phil Spector-esque wall of sound. Although each song has merit, the most easily accessible track is the album's namesake, "Punches." The song is dynamic, swaying back and forth from the disc's signature orchestration to a simple vocal with keys. Creating a unique sound from unlikely components, "Punches" is a pop masterpiece that warrants and gives joy to the repeated listens that are needed to fully grasp its craftwork. -BRIAN OFFENTHER Get Paid For Tasting Orange Juice Maximum 2 Hours/Week Must Be Available For At Least I Year Open To All On Campus Interested?

THURSDAY, JULY 28, 2005 U ALLIGATOR, 11 Girls w011 love 'Dogs' a eycute chick flick, "Must Love Dogs" does exactly what it's intended to do -blend light comedy with a flare of romanticism. John Cusack and Diane Lane star in the movie, opening tomorrow, as two divorcees stuck in a melancholy state after their divorces became final and their dx-significant others move on. Lane plays a conservative preschool teacher while Cusack retains the same role that made him famous -a slightly neurotic hopeless romantic with deep-rooted artistic philosophies. And while I realize that he plays the same slightly neurotic roles in most of his movies, I never seem to get sick of it. I always find him endearing and funny, and he is no different in "Must-Love Dogs." .The movie sets up with Lane as she returns to the dating scene via Internet-dating Web sites. We follow her on a string of dates, and while it is kind of sad and pathetic to watch, it comes off as mildly funny. Lane eventually finds herself in a bind as she falls for two guys -Cusack and the father of one of her preschool students, played by "My Best Friend's Wedding" star Dermot Mulroney. I was a little confused about why the movie is named "Must Love Dogs," as the movie doesn't really focus on dogs too much. So if by. some chance you were intending to see the movie due to cute scenes with pooches, you'll be disappointed. The movie mainly focuses on moving on after divorce and the hardships of the Melissa dating world Filipkowski not dogs. The Reel Life The chemistry .heavenue@aligator.org between Lane and Mulroney was great, but with Cusack, the scenes seemed too rehearsed and I didn't buy into the relationship. This movie is reserved for those who really enjoy Cusack or a girls' movie night. It will leave you turning to the person next to you and sighing contentedly. Or in my case, hugging my bucket of popcorn a little tighter and watching the couple in front of me make out. 'ion in Wintr' presents drarnas. universal in history he English have done it again. The proper royales of olde dish up a platter that's oozing with juiciness and scandal in the play "The Lion in Winter." This sudsy, slippery story is about the drama of King Henry II's court. Namely, the despise, infidelity, greed, fear, pity, betrayal, love and plotting that makes up the power struggle between his three sons, Richard (the Lionheart), Geoffry and John. Up for grabs in this life-sized game of chess are a throne, a princess and some valuable real estate. It's Christmastime; the family is all together, hanging holly around the castle, and they are at each other's throats -literally. It is the ultimate case for democracy. The arbitrary ways decisions were made, whether out of spite, whim or favoritism, would make Washington rip out his hair and gnash his wooden teeth. The dialogue is witty and keeps the audience from noticing they are enjoying a form of history. It seems bad parenting is the main problem hinted at in the drama, but jealousy greed, selfishness, love and power create intricate layers to the point that the characters don't even know their true hearts. Director Ted Lewis and assistant Daniel Lewis guided their cast through the maze of human emotions to great effect. King Henry H, played by Randall Moring, had a stately bellow and also an endearing tiredness in the. whole mess. His crippling monoErin logue just before intermisChalfant sion was genuine anguish. Curtain Call Queen Eleanor, Susan theavenue@aligator.org Moring, was incredibly dynamic. She was icy, yet emotional and convincing in every lie. The greedy trinity of Richard, Geoffry and John were adequate ini their roles. And John, Bennett Lloyd, was perfect for the spoiled-brat baby of the family with his whiny voice. And finally, the only victim of the play, besides those pawns used in the kings' wars and the perhaps long-suffering peasants we always hear about, is Princess Alais, played by Loren Omer. Omer plays the agony of being used by love well and helps to keep Alais innocent-seeming even when she does get angry. The play really brings life in the 12th century to the 21" century. We are still battling our desires, emotions, families and carrying grudges today.

12, ALLIGATORSU THURSDAY, JULY 28,2005 7aei roei,'rne ae edr agn I stood in the midnight queue with the other die-hard Harry Potter blokes to get my copy of "Halfblood Prince." I didn't immediately read it because I wanted to re-read the first five Harry Potter books. I also didn't immediately read it because my prat of a boyfriend (who I completely adore) decided to "borrow" my book and read it himself before I had a chance to open it, after rowing with me about how silly he thought the whole Harry Potter craze is. After finally getting it back, I stayed up all night reading it, and frankly, I'm knackered. Right. "Half-Blood Prince" is not as well written or as poignant as books three and five. Rowling's imagination introduces us to fewer aspects of the magical world than she normally does. So to keep myself from spoiling the book, I'll list what I disliked and loved about Rowling's sixth installment. I disliked the fact that characters like Ginny, Neville and Luna, who Rowling spent time developing in "The Order of the Phoenix," did not play a larger role in this novel. Hagrid and Lupin also didn't show up nearly as often as I had hoped. I disliked Harry Potter's new romantic relationship. It seems to stem from nothing. The character Harry ends up with in book six showed potential for becoming an interesting and essential part of his life in book five. But in book six, she receives little attention from the author. Most of all, I dislike the fact that I have to wait 18 to 24 months before I know what happens next. That is because there -were so many aspects of this novel I loved. To begin with, Harry Potter is no longer an angsty, pissy teenager. He also is not the boy hero he was in the first four books. Harry has grown into a vulnerable, yet mature adult almost ready for his final showdown with Voldemort. Rowling also does a great job of showing how Voldemort's return has darkened the magical world through her Jayme descriptions of the student's traGough ditional schoolOff the Press supply shopping theavenue@alligator.org trip in Diagon Alley. Then there is the relationship between Ron and Hermione. Their confused feelings for each other offer comic relief and a dose of reality to the reader. Their constant loyalty to Harry is sweet, but Rowling keeps it realistic by allowing both Ron and Hermione to doubt Harry's theories about who a possible murderer in the school might be. I also enjoyed finding more about Tom Riddle's past. Rowling's description of Tom Riddle's metamorphosis into the dark wizard, Lord Voldemort, is creepy. The reader learns enough about Voldemort to find him disturbing yet almost deserving of sympathy. And then there is the ending. The Half-Blood Prince reveals himself. A major character dies. All perceptions you had about certain characters change in a matter of pages. You are left with a cliffhanger and a sneaky suspicion that what you just witnessed might not be what it appears. Cheerio. Whether for conversation or foreplay, sex talk should be silenced Most relationships walk on two legs -conversation and sex. The monient either one stumbles, warning flags go up. If you're able to maintain good sex and good conversation separately, combining the two creates a whole new array of issues to consider. The first complication of sex talk stems from the nearly infinite variations of conversation types during sex. Some people talk about their desires and others talk in character. Some make jokes and some just chitchat. I separate all sex talk into two main categories: that which is designed to enhance the sex, or "dirty talk," and that which has nothing to do with the experience at all, "intercourse discourse." The first category gets swept under the blanket-term "dirty talk." However with both the multiple variations -fantasy talk, baby talk, demeaning talk, etc. -and their very separate followings, lumping it all together umder one name proves dangerous. While I'm pretty comfortable talking about my fantasies with a partner, you'd be hard pressed to get me talking like a toddler. Yet both get pegged as 'dirty talk.' A different experience-enhancing dialogue in need of distinction from "dirty talk," I refer to as shoptalk. Shoptalk consists of the in-act discussions, requests, commands and compromises of the sexual logistics. While sometimes awkward, in my opinion, shoptalk remains the only worthy conversation during sex. Shoptalk comprises, to Mr. Lube me at least, the necessary communication to achieve Risqu6 Business the mutualgoal-namely theavenueaalligator.org orgasm. All other types of talking tend to make me laugh out loud, which is another sound not well received during sex. On the topic of talk that topples the mood, I libel the other category of sex talk as "intercourse discourse." Intercourse discourse is surprisingly common, especially when it comes to making light jokes. The intention seems obvious. Making one endearing to another through laughter effectively gets sex partners. However, when the nudity starts the jokes should stop. But it's not only light banter. Intercourse discourse types have an incomparable manner to prattle while they probe. Typically, the conversation remains superficial with plans for the week or recounting the day. When the conversation becomes an intimate confession of inner thoughts -those not sex related of course -I find myself even more lost. Mostly, when it comes to coital conversation, I wish we all could just shut up.

THURSDAY, JULY 28, 2005 ALLIGATOR www.alligatorSports.org Mark Almond / AP Photo UF coach Urban Meyer speaks at the Southeastern Conference media days in Hoover, Ala., Wednesday. By ANDREW ABRAMSON Alligator Staff Writer aabramson@alIigator.org HOOVER, Ala. -Before making his official Southeastern Conference debut on Wednesday, Urban Meyer was asked about his first stop in Gainesville. It occurred more than 20 years ago, When Meyer was a reserve defensive back at Cincinnati. The Bearcats, serving as UP's homecoming feast in 1984, fell to the Gators 48-17. Meyer never imagined that two decades later, he wouldd enter the SEC Football Media Days as one of the highest-profile first-year coaches in conference history. "There was some really pretty girls up in the stands. I was 19 years old," said Meyer of his 1984 visit to the Swamp. "That kind of tells you where my mind was. [UF had] very good players and it was hot. That's all I remember." After months of anticipation from the national media, Meyer was the first SEC coach to take the podium at Media Days. Since arriving at UF, Meyer has been praised for his bluntness and honesty, but on Wednesday there were no surprise statements or shocking answers. Instead, Meyer seemed humbled by his SEC debut. "My respect for the SEC goes much further back than 2005,"' Meyer said. "If you would ask me the last 19 years what 1 believe the best conference in college football was, I would have said the SEC." Meyer said that from top to bottom he believes no conference compares to the SEC. "My respect for the SEC goes much further back than 2005. If you would ask me the last 19 years what I believe the best conference in college football was, I would have said the SEC." Urban Meyer UF football coach But while UF may have some of the top athletes in the conference, Meyer knows that it takes more than pure talent to win in the SEC. "Athletes like we have in Florida can run away with the game," he said. "Can we finish the deal and do we have the toughness to hang in there when things are not going well? Those are the two [biggest] questions." Change In Approach On the all-SEC preseason coaches' team, no team had more recipients than UF. But the first-year coach wants a change in mentality. Last season, under former coach Ron Zook, the Gators fell apart in the fourth quarter of several games, losing their composure under pressure. To Meyer, it's all about toughness. "My evaluation after mat drills and spring practice was [we are not a tough team]," Meyer said. "That was the theme of the summer, and I'm hoping that the team [shows toughness at] two-a-days." Safety Jarvis Herring, who served as UF's player representative along with Mike Degory, admitted that the team didn't have that tough mental edge under Zook. "Guys are actually scared of making mistakes now," Herring said. "[Last year] we got kind of lax and we just started trying to do our own things. We were just being immature." Herring said that in 2004, there was a feeling that if the Gators failed, they always had next year. Under Meyer, that attitude is equal to heresy. "The team is not just waiting SEE MEYER, PAGE 25 Press questions Meyer's system, finds offense belongs to Leak HOOVER, Ala. Somewhere, right now, there's a dad on a family vacation who would sympathize with Urban Meyer. "Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Are we there yet?" Since day one, many members of the media have incessantly bombarded the firstyear UF coach with a question, possessing an almost equally obvious answer. "Will your system work?" "Can Chris Leak run your system?" "Can your system work at Florida?" "How will your system fare in the SEC?" System, system, system, system. shut up. Yeah, you're sports writers. Sure, you've played a lot of NCAA 2006. But prove your football IQ with your PlayStation and quit questioning the competency of a coach who has done nothing but win. Before you go throwing the "S" word around like that, tell me: What is Meyer's system? My best answer: one that racks up a ton of points out of the shotgun. Well, I guess I was also wrong. Not with my answer but my question. As Meyer explained at the SEC Football Media Days on Wednesday, it's not his system. It's not even a system at all. His formula is simple: take your best players and get them the ball frequently. Figure out a way for them to excel at what they do best and score often. As he explained Wednesday, it's not his offense, it's Chris Leak's. As he has reiterated time and again, it wasn't Utah's system, it was Alex Smith's. Without these key Bryan App players, to whom the App -etite offense is tailored, for Receptions Meyer's system doesn't bapp@aligator.org click that easily. "As a matter of fact, I took [Smith] out a couple of times," Meyer said. "I wanted to put him right back in: "The system is in place. It's a player system. What we try to do is see if you can make plays. You are a talented guy. I have got to get you the ball. That's what I do well." Maybe we should believe him on this one. I mean, Smith, the No. 1 pick in the NFL Draft, just signed a contract with the 49ers worth only $8.2 million per year. Sure, Meyer will face defenses in the Southeastern Conference quicker and stronger than any Mountain West team would ever dream of recruiting. -Of course, he'll close the gap by trading in his Utah Yugos for Florida Ferraris on the other side of the ball. But Meyer's system goes beyond mere athleticism. "Balancing mental and physical abilities is his thing," senior center Mike Degory said. "He's not just concerned about a player's performance, he's also concerned about the player. "Building a relationship, that's his thing." So will innovation and unity work in the SEC? Well, we'll find out. While it seemed that Gators' A Be sure to pick up Tuesday's pitcher Alan Horne would leave Alligator for additional coverage for the pros, the ace may stick from the 2005 SEC Media-Days, around for a senior season.

THURSDAY, JULY 28, 2005 0 ALLIGATOR, 25 F bk By IAN FISHER Alligator Staff Writer ifisher@alligator.org HOOVER, Ala.-Steve Spurrier was not the only coach making a return to the Southeastern Conference Media Days on Wednesday. Back after taking a year off was Tennessee coach Phillip Fulmer, who didn't make the trip last season because his attorneys advised against attending what he called a "legal circus." Last year, Fulmer was fined $10,000 by Commissioner Mike Slive for not attending. He had to answer questions over a speakerphone. Fulmer was advised not to attend last year because of lawsuits against him regarding his talking to the NCAA about possible violations at Alabama. "I really regret that I wasn't able to be here last year and hate all the circumstances that kept .me from being here last year," Fulner said. "I haven't seen the commissioner yet, but if you see him, make sure hl knows that I was here, because it can be expensive if you, don't show up." Fulmer saidthere were threats to his family on his cell phone, but after his opening speech, he refused to comment on the whole situation regarding the lawsuits. However, Fulmer never had any second thoughts about attending this year. "I am glad to be here," he said. "This kicks off our season. It has for a lot of years and the volatility of our profession and the high expectations that are out there for coaches these days, you know, we don't get to exchange like this very often with this many people .and tell folks about our programs. I like that. As much as you think I.don't, I like it." Fulmer maintained that he did the right thing throughout the lawsuits and Sou defended Conference himself for trying to keep the game clean. "They usually have their own selfish reasons for [cheating] and we have seen it as gamblers do it, bad agents or their runners do it to our kids, and bad boosters do it," he said. "I truly believe that we all have an obligation and responsibility to keep our game clean of these people to the best of our abilities." Fulmer said he gota great reception from the people in Alabama despite all the recent off-field drama. "I'd like to get back to where we have a completely great, clean, tough, hard-fought rivalry, and have none of this other stench in it," he said. "Whether we can get to that, I don't know, but I have no hard feelings against anybody that's a true Alabama fan." Meyer: UF admiration is 'old news' the same podium just three M EYER, from page 24 hours later as the head coach of South Carolina. to play another season. We're waiting to hopefully do some great things," Herring said. "It's a lot more exciting. You have a new life, it's like you have a new breath. We have a chance to win." Spurrier Connection Meyer couldn't escape questions about former UF coach and icon Steve Spurrier, especially since Spurrier took When asked about the pressure of living up to Spurrier's success, Meyer reiterated comments made last year when he said he became a UF fan in the '90s because of Spurrier. However, he didn't seem very eager to tell the tale agam. "That is past history," Meyer said. "That's old news. Spurrier, a crowd-pleaser during his 40 minutes at the microphone, was asked about his interaction with the UF coach since Meyer took the job, and whether Meyer has the temperament that can handle major expectations at Florida. "[Meyer] has had an excellent track record. He's done well," Spurrier said., "There's no reason to think he's not going to do well there. But then again, my job is not to promote all the coaches around the league." Chinese calander gives Gamecocks hope SPURRIER, from page 28 president don't come and tell him what to do, unless he's cheating or losing too much," Spurrier said. "I know we're not going to cheat, and I hope we're not going to lose too much, so hopefully I won't see the A.D. or president talking football with me." "Hopefully" being the key word. The coach once hated for his cockiness seemed to remain cautiously humble about his Gamecocks. Leading a South Carolina team devastated by off-field incidents and facing potentially severe penalties after revealing 10 NCAA rules violations, Spurrier isn't ready to entertain talk of heated rivalries -be it with Vols or Gators. "We need to beat somebody first before those guys are going to worry about South Carolina,". Spurrier said. "Some people are going to make us their rivals when we haven't beaten them much at all. "Hopefully we can get respect, but we have to earn it." At least the Gamecocks have a little history and superstition on their side. According to Chinese horoscope, 2005 is the year of the rooster and so was 1969. And aside from a 2001 Outback Bowl victory, the South Carolina faithful have had nothing to cheer about since Spurrier "n 1969 South Carolina won the ACC championship. We went 6-0 n ACC that year, and it was year of the rooster," Spurrier said. [This] is the year of the rooster so don't bet too much against the Gamecocks, even though we're big underdogs. We've got the rooster on our side. That's about the only thing we have going for us." for people who have been vaccinated against hepatitis B On0~ifl i ucallbe i d to help save lCS.

THURSDAY, JULY 28, 20053H ALLIGATOR, 27 FOOTBALL SEC off 1,o~a s presen-I-guldelmines forinstant replay By ANDREW ABRAMSON Alligator Staff Writer aabramson@a1ligator.org HOOVER, Ala. -If instant replay existed a year ago, and UF had defeated Tennessee in the second game of the season, who knows where former coach Ron Zook would be today. I A controversy with the game clock, along with a personal foul called on Dallas Baker that appeared to be equally the fault of his Tennessee counterpart, had critics screaming for instant replay. UF fans especially said instant replay could have saved the season. Not so fast. Southeastern Conference coordinator of officials Bobby Gaston officially laid out the guidelines for the newly implemented instant replay system Wednesday at SEC Football Media Days, but he made it clear that under the new rules, nothing would have been reversed in Knoxville. "The instant replay deal has tried to keep the replay people out of actually officiating the game. They're only there to correct the mistake that they made," Gaston said. "If we had to watch the clock every play and determine whether they started it properly or improperly, that's real tedious thing, I can assure you." As for the personal fouls, Gaston said that in the South Carolina-Clemson brawl last year, they couldn't determine all the participants until the Wednesday after the game. Basically, Gaston said it would be too difficult to review fights in many situations. "I didn't think we should stop a game until Wednesday," Gaston joked. But replay has finally arrived in the SEC and much of college football, though it's different than the system used in the NFL. Each SEC football stadium will have a secured replay booth equipped with a DVSport Digital Replay system. A replay official, communicator and technician will sit in the booth. "We decided to do this rather than having a phone at the sidelines like most people do because I was told by the NFL people that when you put a phone right there on the stands itself, that you have got people hanging over the stands [as a distraction], as well as coaches hollering at you," Gaston said. He also said that with this technology, the replays will be quick. Most decisions could be made between the whistle and the beginning of the next play, meaning the already drawn out college football games shouldn't run much longer. Coaches will have no say as to whether plays are reviewed or not. However, the Instant Replay Official will review every potentially review-able play. So fans and even coaches will not necessarily know if a play is being reviewed unless it is overturned. Gaston said that while coaches cannot ask for a replay, there are other motives for coaches to have their voices heard. "They can encourage Os by taking a time out and turning and staring at the replay booth, and that might prompt us a little bit into action to take it a little bit farther," Gaston said. While there could possibly be a few kinks in the beginning of the season, Gaston ansI the rest of the SEC expect a smooth transition. "We're walking on uncharted waters," Gaston said. "So, subsequently, we don't know totally what to expect, although we did practice this equipment at the Kentucky spring game and we found, amazingly, that we will be able to review far more players and plays than we thought we could." Horne remains unsigned, may return for senior year Tim Casey/ Alligator Staff UF pitcher Alan Horne has until the first day of fall classes to decide whether or not to sign a professional contract. jiffy Lube Signature The Well-Oiled MachineO Services Oil Change For More information log onto: www.jiffylubesoutheast.com By TIM CASEY Alligator Writer tcasey@alligator.org Alan Home is getting multiple lessons in marketing this summer. Not only is the junior pitcher studying marketing in the classroom, but he's also learning from first-hand experience. Home was chosen in the 11th round of the 2005 MLB Amateur Draft by the New York Yankees with the 349th selection, but has not yet signed with 'the team. Previously, it had been assumed that the ace pitcher wouldn't return to UF for a senior season. "We were talking to them pretty heavily, but we haven't heard back from them in over a week and a half," Horne said Wednesday. "They pretty much signed everyone around me, guys that were drafted behind me and in front of me," Horne said. "It will probably be something that comes down to the wire." He knows something about contract negotiations from personal experience. Home was drafted in the first round by the Cleveland Indians in 2001 out of high school, and was a 30th-round choice of the Anahein Angels in the 2004 MLB Draft. "About three weeks ago, I had lunch with the local scout [for the Yankees]," Horne said. "That's the only face-to-face meeting we've had. I've talked to their scouting director on the phone." Home had a 4.05 ERA in 113.1 innings, compiling a team-best 10-2 record.

June 23 in the College World Series, but left the game after a fourth inning leg injury in UF's 6-3 win against Arizona State. "I just pulled my hamstring," Home said. "Time is what it takes to heal. I needed some rest after a long year." "Regardless of whether I'm back in the fall or I sign, I won't throw again until the fall." Alan Horne UF pitcher Home has spent his time since the CWS rehabilitating his leg and resting. "Regardless of whether I'n back in' e fall or I sign, I won't throw again until the fall," Horne said. Should Horne turn down a contract with the Yankees, the 2006 Gators would have a formidable lineup that could improve on the best season in school history. UF lost to Texas in the championship round of the CWS. "I've talked with Coach [Pat] McMahon, he wants what's best for me," Home -said. "Obviously, he wants to have me back. He knows I'm ready for professional baseball." The major league trading deadline is Sunday. To make a push towards the postseason and unseat the defending World Serieschampion Boston Red Sox, the Yarnees are looking for help. "They've traded off a lot of their talent so they're trying to build up their system," Home said. 1 BR/i BA Condoswalk to Campus!! 11Pices' sraf things, 0 (352) 339-1440 (o (352) 317-2807

28, ALLIGATOR M THURSDAY, JULY 28, 2005 sEs>Owl "Copyrighted Material. Syndicated Content Available from Commercial News Providers" By BRYAN APP Alligator Staff Writer bapp@alligator.org Hoover, Ala. -A sign in the lobby welcomed attendees to this year's Southeastern Conference Football Media Days. And if the Wynfrey Hotel had a marquee, it would undoubtedly read: "Steve Spurrier Back, Tonight Only." A national coach of the year followed by the coach of this season's projected SEC champion opened the media festivities. But there was little doubt who was the headliner. "It's good to be back," said Spurrier, greeting the crowd hanging on his every word. "I've missed you guys. It's a lot more fun hanging around the SEC than the other league I was in for a couple years." Escaping from his twoseason disaster with the Washington Redskins, Spurrier made his SEC debut Wednesday, picking up where he left off when he dumped UF in January 2002 as the conference's focal figure. His rivals still can't stand him, but his opponents continue to respect him. UF coach Urban Meyer made clear the respect he held for the Spurrier's SEC-dominating Gators teams. "It's good to be back. I've missed you guys. It's a lot more fun hanging around the SEC than the other league I was in for a couple years." Steve Spurrier USC football coach Even Spurrier's long-time nemesis Tennessee coach Phillip Fulmer seemed to offer his own form of tribute. "I don't need to give any advice to Steve," said Fulmer, who's Volunteers defeated UF only three times during Spurrier's 12-year tenure. "He's got all the answers anyway." "We didn't beat him enough at Florida. When I heard he was first coming back I said, 'Ah, crap,' or something like that." But the man who once said, "You can't spell Citrus without UT," poking fun at the Volunteers' string of second place SEC finishes during his tenure,has seemed to have toned down his inflammatory rhetoric. A miserable 12-20 two-season record in the big leagues can tend to do that. "Sometimes, a head coach may only be as good as his players," Spurrier said. "I was lucky to have some great teams at Florida, no doubt abost it. "But you learn to appreciate that all coaches work their tails off to give players the best chance to win games." The golf and sunshine in D.C. just doesn't compare to that of the Palmetto State, but, as Spurrier indicated, a lack of institutional control also played a large factor in his collegiate rebirth. "Every NFL organization does things a little different, but [with] every college team that I know of, the head coach is not influenced, and the [athletics director] and SEE SPURRIER, PAGE 25 "Copyrighted Materia I Syndicated-Content Available from Commercial News Providers" .EZ Tennis In terms of Tennis, big stores make EZ Tennis look good.
