SG ELECTIONS


Banners may



violate rules

By JUSTIN RICHARDS
Alligator Writer
jrichards@alligator.org

In a potential violation of Student Government election
codes, houses on fraternity row have large advertisements
draped over their walls supporting and stating authoriza-
tion by The Gator Party.
SG election codes dictate that "posters may not exceed
352 square inches," about 19 inches by 19 inches. Several of
the displays on fraternity houses span entire floors.
All the banners read that they are paid political advertise-
ments of Gator Party Treasurer Brian Seel. The codes require
that the person named on the banner authorize "the creation
of, disbursement of, or payment for" that banner.
But Seel said he had nothing to do with the displays.
Campaign material also needs the authorization of
Supervisor of Elections Daniel Maland, who said he never
approved the banners.
Maland contends that the banners are not "posters" and
are therefore not subject to the 352-square-inch requirement.
This defense jars with Maland's statements at an Aug. 31
meeting with party officials, during which he reviewed the
election codes with them and warned of penalties ranging
from restricted campaigning to disqualification.
"Watch what you do; be careful what you do," he said at
the time. "Ignorance is no longer an excuse."
During the meeting, Maland said Fraternity Row is con-
sidered off campus because Greek organizations bought the
land from UF in the 1990s.
Thus, it is not under the ju-
risdiction of SG statutes.
The Office of Greek
Life and University Police
refuted this argument
Monday. When asked again
about the advertisements,
Maland said he would ask
the houses' occupants to

Hurricanes spur energy advisory


* CONSERVATION NOW CAN
LOWER FUTURE BILLS.

By JESSICA RIFFEL

Gainesville Regional Utilities is urg-
ing students and residents to conserve
electricity.
"We already have a shortage of
natural gas due to Hurricane Katrina,
and Hurricane Rita further reduced the
amount available," GRU spokesman
Dan Jesse said.
Many oil refineries and platforms
along the Gulf Coast have been shut
down because of the recent hurricanes.
"If people don't cut back, prices will

continue to rise in the future," Jesse
said. "What they do now affects prices
later."
GRU suggests students and resi-
dents turn up the thermostat setting,
turn off lights and fans when leaving a
room, close curtains and blinds to keep
out the heat, and lim-
Around it washer, drier and
Gainesville dishwasher use.
"If the use of elec-
tricity stays down,
we won't have to worry about the
shortages because we'll just keep the
coal [generators] running," Jesse said.
Natural gas fuels GRU's generators
after its coal generators are running at
capacity. During high-demand periods
such as hot afternoons, the natural-gas
generators are used.


* Human Rights
Awareness on
Campus won a
$10,000 grant in
May. Four months
later, the group has
yet to see a dime
of it.

6 for a special
announcement,
addressing the
controversy
surrounding an
editorial cartoon
published in the
Alligator.


Some students plan to follow GRU's
suggestions.
UF student Carmen Bustillo said
she and her three roommates are go-
ing to turn off lights and the television
when they are not being used.
"We're doing this for everybody's
sake," Bustillo said. "The more people
that do it, the less likely prices will go
up for all of us."
But many students do not plan to
alter their habits unless there are huge
electricity rate increases.
UF accounting major Josh Wiseman
said he still plans on using his hot tub
and television the same amount.
"I don't pay for that stuff anyway,"
he said. "My parents do."
The advisory was released Friday
and was renewed Monday.

Study-abroad programs send students into new waters

Students looking to earn credits
overseas: Your ship may be call-
ing.
The Study Abroad Fair, this
Wednesday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.
on the Reitz Union Colonnade, of-
fers students the chance to learn
far from home.
For. Erika Short, a 65-day trip
across the globe with the Semester
at Sea study abroad
Student program was the ex-
Life perience of a lifetime.
Freezing cold in
the middle of June,
she awoke at midnight to see the
sun disappear below the Icelandic
horizon.
"It was beautiful the sun set-
ting over the ocean," said Short, an
industrial and systems engineer-
ing major. "I got used to getting
up early and sitting on the back
of the ship to watch the sun rise or
set. I won't be able to do that many
more times in my life."
Among the many study abroad
summer programs available,
Semester at Sea took 500 students,
including two from UF, to eight
different countries in northern
Europe.

as research assignments, home-

They also had the opportunity
to do programs in the countries
themselves, mixing academics
and culture, creating a real-world
learning environment.
The field programs in Short's
classes took her to a Caterpillar,
Inc. machinery fabrication plant in
Russia and a shipyard in Poland.
"It's a pretty hands-on ap-
proach to learning," she said.
Susanne Hill, the International
Center's study abroad coordinator,
said students get a global under-
standing through programs such
as Semester at Sea.
"They get a different perspec-
tive after they have experienced
how the program has widened
their horizons," Hill said.

awards $75,000 a year in scholar-
ship money to help students fi-
nance the study abroad programs,
she said.
From seeing a rainbow while
mountain hiking in Ireland to
climbing the Eiffef Tower in Paris,
Gordon said she had many unique
experiences that will stay with her.
"It was worth every penny,"
she said.

STUDENT LIFE

Group strikes out on grant


By ANGELA CASTELLANOS
Alligator Contributing Writer

Human Rights Awareness on Campus
won a $10,000 grant in May. Four months
later, the group has yet to see a dime of it.
The Darfur Activism Award, provided
by the Reebok Human Rights Foundation
and mtvU, was awarded to. the best start-
up student organization focusing on raising
awareness of the genocide in Darfur. To
receive the money, however, the winning or-
ganization had-to be a federally registered,
501(c)(3) tax-exempt nonprofit organization.
After only a month of existence, the
group was barely a student organization
- let alone a tax-exempt, nonprofit one
- when its president, Nikolas Wolfe, en-
tered the contest on a whim in April 2005.
When the 501(c)(3) status became an issue
in receiving the grant, the group consulted
Student Legal Services but without success,
Treasurer Rochelle Meddoff said.
"They simply told us we were not large
enough or established enough to handle the
responsibility," she said.
Wolfe paid about $200 of his own money
to gain the group's certification as a Florida
nonprofit organization and to show inten-
tion of gaining 501(c)(3) status. The group
hoped this would mean the grant money
would be released.
However, Reebok still insists on federal
registration, which involves a 52-hour appli-
cation process followed by an eight-month
application review.


But that may change after Student Sen.
Ramone Looby directed the group to the
Student Government business manager last
week, who promised to help with the grant.
"In the 20 minutes I spent with him, I was
able to get more done than I hid in the past
six months," Meddoff said.
"They (Student Legal Services)
simply told us we were not large
enough or established enough to
handle the responsibility."
Rochelle Meddoff
Human Rights Awareness treasurer

SG is researching options for the orga-
nizati6n, helping it get the most amount of
grant money in the least amount of time,
Meddoff said.
One option is finding a religious group to
agree to be the organization's fiscal sponsor
and take the check on their behalf.
Without this help, she said, the group
may not have seen the money until
September 2006.
Because the-organization began in March
2005, it has yet to receive funding from SG.
"We do everything out-of-pocket at this
point," Meddoff said.
The 1,300.1etters concerning the genocide
in Darfur have since grown to around 4,000
handwritten letters from students. and fac-
ulty, and- the group now has 416 people on
its listserv.


LGBT-ally frat in works


By DIANA MAZZELLA
Alligator Writer
dmazzella@alligator.org

A lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgen-
der co-ed fraternity is in the planning
stages at UF.
Organizer and UF sophomore Davier
Rodriguez said he wanted to join a frater-
nity but thought one that supported the
LGBT community was needed at UF.
LGBT organizations exist on campus,
but he thought they didn't have the broth-
erhood and closeness of a fraternity.
Established fraternities that welcome
LGBT members still may make them feel
like they are a minority in the group, he
said.
Aftersixmonths of research, Rodriguez
is holding meetings to determine the type
of fraternity that could form.
He originally planned to create a men-
only fraternity that supports the LGBT
community, which would mirror already
existing chapters in the nation.
But after an LGBT assembly two
weeks ago, women expressed interest.
If Rodriguez was to create a co-ed fra-
ternity supporting the LGBT community,
it would be more complicated because no
such organizations currently exist, he said.
If he sees interest in a co-ed fraternity, a
new national organization would have to


be formed, which could take five years.
Before the fraternity can be created,
Rodriguez would need to find out how
many people would join.
Having both an LGBT fraternity and a
sorority is another option, he said.
UF junior Chris Harper said he was
interested in being a part of a fraternity
like the one Rodriguez is trying to create
because he liked the idea of brotherhood.
He thought being in a fraterni-
Greek ty would give him more social
Life opportunities.
Rodriguez said he expects
positive and negative responses.
"There will be a lot of opposition in
the beginning," he said. "Several fraterni-
ties on campus.. .have rejected members
because they are LGBT," he said.
The response from the LGBT com-
munity will decide if this fraternity comes
into being, he said. He has heard a posi-
tive response from at least 25 people.
Gator Gay-Straight Alliance member
Jonathan Keane said although he is not
interested in joining a fraternity some
people he knows might want to join one.
"I think it could be very popular with
the right people in it," he said.
Being a part of the LGBT community
would not be required to join the fraterni-
ty, which would also be a haven for thdse
who want to learn about the community.

Container policy


remains the same

COMMISSIONERS URGE PRUDENT ENFORCEMENT.

By KIMBERLY GOUZ
Alligator Contributing Writer
The Gainesville City Commission did not amend the contro-
versial open-container policy Monday after discussing the strides
that police have made in protecting local residents.
Commissioner Warren Nielsen described the gameday envi-
ronment in years prior to the crackdown on the open container
policy.
"I would see fights. I would see blood. I would see people'
acting in code violation," Nielsen said. "I can still close my eyes
and see people sitting on the curb bleeding from the altercations
taking place."
Nielsen said the penalty for an open container of alcohol
should be strict enough that it cannot be ignored but added that
it is within the police department's discre-
Gainesville City tion to limit the number of fans who are
S- Commission arrested.
:, O "We have to make sure that when people
come to Gainesville that they ... are treated
with dignity and respect," he said.
Commissioner Jack Donovan proposed that signs warning
of the open-container law be posted along University Avenue,
if feasible.
Nielsen said that periodic discussion of the open-container
law is prudent, and the commission would continue to adjust its
position if needed.
I "This is an important tune-up, and.we need to do'it."
It is unfortunate that a "few jerks" are causing problems that
stain the whole community, Commissioner Ed Braddy said.
Student Government Lobby Coordinator Thomas Philpot said
the discussion provoked by the arrests of Tennessee fans at the
Sept. 17 home football game will affect police interpretation of
the law.
"Even if the law hasn't changed on paper, I think that a clear
message has come out of this discussion," Philpot said. "I think
you'll see more of a.move toward evaluation of the policy on a
case-by-case basis."

Supervisor files complaint against Impact


ELECTION, from page 1


Maland said an assistant saw Bard campaigning
door-to-door in Broward, which election codes forbid,
and gave him a warning.
When Bard was caught a second time, Maland
said, a complaint was filed against him. His hearing
will take place tonight at 9 p.m.
"None of this ever happened," Bard said of
Maland's account. He said he .delivered a stack of
Impact T-shirts to supporters who had requested
them. "I was always escorted by the people who
wanted me on that floor."
Bard said he was never spoken to by anyone bhut


his Resident Assistant on the second floor, who told
him that if he was door-to-door campaigning, he
should stop.
Impact spokesman Adam Roberts said in a phone
interview that the fourth-floor Broward RA who re-
ported the complaint is a member of the Tau Kappa
Epsilon Fraternity. The Gator Party candidate for the
Broward seat is a Tau Kappa Epsilon pledge.
Generally, party leaders said they have been keep-
ing each other in check rather than filing complaints.
For example, Impact President Thomas Jardon
said he saw a Gator Party banner on the SG-funded
poles in the Plaza of the Americas.
He called Maland, and Gator Party members took
the banner down within 11 minutes, Jardon said.

Editorial


Vote today

Unlike Impact, Gator's

platform is not feasible
I|he Editorial Board has weighed in on this week's Student
| Government election.
Now it's your turn.
We didn't want to use this space to talk about something that
would distract you from voting today and Wednesday. That job
goes to the columnists.
One more time, we want to make our position clear.
We support the Impact Party. We would marry the Impact
Party. We might even be convinced to have 12 children with the
Impact Party.
But today we're going to focus on The Gator Party, just to
amuse ourselves and take up space.
However, before the fun, we want you to get all the facts
straight on how to go about this voting thing.
There are 12 on-campus voting locations. Everything will
be done on computer. For the first time, you can vote at any
of these locations, which will include Turlington Hall, the Reitz
Union and Library East, and not be tied down to one precinct.
Apparently, this has given SG officials a reason to eliminate
three polling places. It's probably because they couldn't steal
enough computers from campus.
Seriously, why didn't they just let students-vote on their
home computers? That is apparently too economical and easy.
Don't be tricked when you enter the Union. Voting is on the
third floor. It is not on the first. Hopefully there will be signs, but
you never know with these sneaky SG people.
You might have to go through a booby trap filled with
sharp objects and torture devices, all bought with your tuition
money.
Don't be deterred. However, you should to bring a wooden
stake and silver bullets as safety precautions.
Now that you've been primed for the quest before you, we
shall turn to why this all shouldn't end in a vote for Gator.
First off, they'll never implement true onlin ng. All
they talk about is how dangerous it would be to enable voting
through GatorLink accounts.
A big argument is that this would lead to block'voting, or
one person entering the votes for a group of people. Gator also
argues that if you could vote on any computer, someone could
stand behind you.
Then we guess absentee ballots should be outlawed too.
Furthermore, if we can pay our tuition, sign up for classes
and look up our financial aid through the system, we can cer-
tainly vote with it.
But these points have all been made before.
The issues Gator is fighting for are perhaps even more trou-
bling in their infeasibility.
Officials want to dose sections of University Avenue for foot-
ball games. This is a city issue. If SG represents only the small
section of campus that votes, we can't see Gator convincing the
city that traffic should increase just because some people want
to walk in the street.
Gator also wants to "increase movement toward" getting
"green" buses. We don't even know what this means. Are Gator
candidates going to symbolically walk toward a green bus? It's
just so vague and confusing.
If they mean that they'll try to fund that huge project, then
that's just a little ridiculous.
But the most frightening Gator platform issue is their prom-
ise of biweekly lunches with SG officials.
This is an issue of mercy. More bureaucratic meetings are the
last thing on our minds. Not even free food can draw us to such
torture.
Of course, we probably wouldn't be invited.

Opinions

www.alligator.org/opinions


Alligator will take steps to improve trust


When we print Andy Marlette's cartoons, as with
every time we decide to print someone else's
opinion in the Alligator, our motives are genuine.
I don't believe I've ever seen Marlette fail to make his.
points. In any event, people are entitled to their opinions,
which are the keystones of American life.
But sometimes, good intentions lead us where we don't
expect to go. We did not foresee the hurt and offense many
would feel on the basis of a single word, or a single opin-
ion, or a series of opinions.
Our critics are correct: we must always take responsi-
bility for our actions.
There are those who remember a time, more than I
ever could, when racially sensitive statements would have
been silenced, dominated and tinged with violence.
To those who felt real pain upon viewing these car-
toons, I apologize.
But the cartoon has stirred up so many feelings, I can-
not regret that all this has happened.
The controversy proves that our community has polar-
ized on the discussion of'race-sensitive issues so much, it
interferes with constructive cooperation and continuing
dialogue. Talk in some places has devolved into raw hate
and a whole lot of empty rhetoric.
The Alligator certainly is not innocent in this course of
events. As a source of news and opinions for the entire
campus, we must be committed to inform from the most
educated positions we can have.
We plan to set an example for the university by keeping
these issues in the spotlight, now that they are exposed.
We have taken some of the first steps, with the help of
administrators and campus groups, and I invite everyone
to suggest ways the Alligator can make this a learning
experience for all.
First, we must take steps beyond the typical open houses
and speeches in reporting classes to encourage fresh, di-
verse voices to speak with the Alligator.


We're reopening our doors.
Apply as a writer or an edito-
rial board member, and you could
have a significant say in what the
national UF community reads on
a daily basis.
Mike Gimignani Let this also be an invitation for
Editorial Notebook comments from anyone who has
mgimignani@alligator.org held back opinions in the past, or
who sees wrongs- being commit-
ted in our community.
-The Alligator's job is to expose injustice for the benefit
of everyone. We try very hard right now to do this; but
we must try even harder in future, and for that we need
your help.
I am confident the changes we make to our approach
will lead to widespread discussion and growth among
students, faculty and staff.
On the other hand, I know Marlette wouldn't agree to
change his opinions for sensitivity reasons. In fact, there
are many readers, not separated by race, gender or status,
who consider it wrong for us to temper anyone's opinion
for the benefit of anyone else.
I wish there were a simple truth I could deliver
which will satisfy all angles of this debate, but it's not
the Alligator's job to tell anyone what to say or how to.
say it.
As a newspaper editor, I can tell you that censorship
of any kind is dangerous to everybody. Remember that
many cases of genocide and oppression started in censors'
hands.
I remember an Alligator columnist who two years ago,
after another cartoon drew ire from campus groups, put
the paper's dilemma in perspective: "When free speech
goes, the first people to suffer are minorities."
That sage advice came from Marlette himself.
Mike Gimignani is editor of the Alligator.

Column

Focus needs to return to Iraq


I'm going to be insensitive. In fact, I'm
probably an absolute jerk.
But it's time we get our minds and
the national media to turn away a little
from the hurricanes and return to the fact that
we're in a war with no end in sight.
Don't get me wrong: The victims of Katrina
and Rita have all my sympathy. I'm not saying
we shouldn't continue our donations, but it's
time to split our focus.
The anti-war movement should build
momentum now that our nation has had
the chance to see the bumbling response to
Katrina. It's been four years since Sept. 11,
2001, and our Department of Homeland
Security is still so inadequately prepared that
we don't even need an international terrorist
to show the lack of real plans to real disasters.
And who's to say that the same thing hasn't
been happening in Iraq? Bush has shown that
unless the public and media continue to view
his policies under microscopic scrutiny, things
fall apart faster than a Hollywood romance.
And how have things been faring in Iraq?
The latest debacle features the Iraqi constitu-
tion, which will go to a referendum Oct. 15.
The constitution is anything but secular,,
enshrining Islam as the official state -religion
and stating that no law can be passed which,
contradicts the rules of Islam. Didn't hear


Amy Eisinger any mention of women?
Left Out That's because the con-
letters@alligator.org stitution leaves out any
statement of their rights
entirely. We should be ashamed that the occu-
pying multi-national forces that helped draft
this constitution allowed these pseudo-repre-
sentations of democracy to slide.
But not all focus on the war has been lost.
Last weekend, anti-war rallies were held in the
United States and in London. At least 100,000
citizens gathered in Washington. In London,
10,000 protesters took to the streets Saturday,
topping the number of troops Britain has sta-
tioned in Iraq by 1,500.
Why aren't these stories still making head-
lines across the nation? Have Americans and
media alike become bored with a seemingly
pointless war?
Try talking "boredom" to the- families of
the 1,900 members of the U.S. Armed Forces
whose lives have been lost since the war be-
gan. This war remains just as serious as ever,
and our lack of attention won't make it disap-
pear like a bad dream at the break of dawn.
If we want to see a stop anytime soon, it's
going to have to come from an informed and
outraged public.
Amy Eisinger is an English and classics junior.
Her column appears on Tuesday.


-Letters to the Editor
Air show wastes fuel in gas crisis
I would like to thank the federal
government and the U.S. Navy for yet
another act of irresponsibility.
We are being told to cut back
on fuel usage and only drive when
necessary. Gasoline prices went up
because yet another hurricane was
threatening our Gulf Coast on the
same day oil prices dropped $2 a bar-
rel. Yet the Blue Angels can afford to
burn thousands of dollars' worth of
aviation fuel that our tax dollars pay
for, while select individuals and local
government profit from the parking
and $15 admission fee.
Thank you, U.S. Navy, for lead-
ing the way in the government's
conservation policy while our fuel
prices continue to soar and the U.S.
Government does nothing to curb the
price increases.
I guess conservation is only for the
private sector, not the government.
John D. Kotsay
Gainesville resident



One kind act reveals Impact's
true commitment to UF students
When I first got to Gainesville, all
I could think about was football and
wild parties. Little did I know how
serious Student Government is at UF.
The other day while walking
through Turlington Plaza, I noticed
many people from both the Gator and
Impact parties. At first I had no due


who these people were, and my gut
instinct was to avoid them. When I
walked past the tower, I dropped sev-
eral dozen loose note cards I was car-
rying to class. It was pretty windy that
day, and after a night of sleep depriva-
tion, I was just about ready to have a
breakdown right then and there.
But just as the cards fell across
the pavement, someone in a red
shirt from the plaza across the street
pointed at me and yelled something
out loud to the others. While I reacted
to the scream with a sigh of confusion,
half a dozen red shirts sprinted across
the street, one almost getting hit by
a moving car, and they descended
around me to pick up my note cards.
I didn't know what to say. I was
caught off guard by their kindness. I
figured they'd start to butter me up,
but no one did.
So I asked them about their party.
I'm no expert on SG and probably
never will be, but one thing I know for
sure is that if these Impact kids would
sprint more than a hundred feet to the
rescue of just one student, one student
who may not have voted for them
or voted at all, then you just have to
cut across all the red tape and all the
rhetoric. It's not about who promises
you the biggest things or who pledges
to work the most hours. What counts
is who's ready to help you in the here
and now with no strings attached.
I'm voting Impact, and I hope you
will too.

Gators backs still vie for position


By ANDREW ABRAMSON and
v4 LOUIS ANASTASIS
Alligator Staff Writers

Although DeShawn Wynn may
have become the first player in UF
history to score four touchdowns


twice in his career after accomplish-
ing the feat against Kentucky, both
head coach Urban Meyer and run-
ning backs coach Stan Drayton said
the Gators will use a committee of
running backs for now.
Despite Wynn's four-touchdown


Though tailback DeShawn Wynn has seen the bulk of UF's carries, he has yet
to establish himself as the Gators' primary back.


performance, Meyer said no running
back has raised himself to a high
enough level to justify 20 to 25 carries
a game.
Drayton said Wynn will get
the majority of the carries against
Alabama, but he hasn't made the po-
sition his own yet.
"We have a bunch of guys who
bring a lot to the table," Drayton
said.
"Right now, that is what's helping
this football team win ball games, and
we're going to play that card until
there's a guy who says 'Hey this is my
position...and you have to go through
me to get it.' Right now we have guys
working through that mentality but
we're not quite there yet."
After being buried on the bench
behind Wynn and true freshman
Kestahn Moore, Skyler Thornton
- who finished the 2004 season as
UF's No. 2 back is once again the
backup tailback, at least for now.
Meyer said Thornton handled his
demotion well, which has helped him
persevere and reclaim a spot in the
lineup.
"There are a couple ways to handle
not playing," -Meyer said. "One way
is to make phone calls and pout and
stick your lower lip out, and those
guys will continue not to play. That,
or you can be like our guy Skyler
Thornton, who, to be honest with
you, did that for a couple weeks.
Then Skyler thought, 'You know
what? This is not working. This lower
lip stuff might have worked when I
was 6 years old to get my jelly beans
or something like that, but its not get-
ting me on the field.'"

UF not haunted

by 'Bama ghost

somewhere, Bear Bryant is doing tight little
360s in his coffin.
Forget the six national championships
to which Bryant led Alabama during his 24-year
tenure.
To a new generation of SEC players, the
Crimson Tide might as well trade in their el-
ephant mascot for a brontosaurus.
Forget about the 12 national and 21 SEC
championship trophies tucked inside Bryant-
Denny Stadium in
Tuscaloosa.
Talking Bama foot-
ball to a 20-something
collegiate star in this day
and age is like discussing
all-time most-influential
Bryan App bands with my associ-
App-etite ate columnist Louis
for Receptions Anastasis.
bapp@alligator.org For the record,. Louis,
The All-American Rejects
couldn't tote the Rolling
Stones' collective jock.
And so it goes with a group of Gators riding
a dangerously intoxicating four-game winning
streak.
"Alabama football, 30 or 40 years ago, was
the thing," UF center Mike Degory said. "They
have the tradition-rich program just like we
do."
That's kind of like Iraqi President Jalal
Talibani comparing himself to George
Washington.
Contrary to the beliefs of many Gators fans,
people played football before 1990.
A decade's worth of SEC titles six to be
exact and a national championship pales in

SUPERSTITIOUS GATORS: Shh.
Keep it down about quarterback
Chris Leak and his interception-
less streak.
After four games, Leak has
thrown nine touchdowns but has
yet to be picked.
Just don't mention the streak


inside UF's locker room.
Monday, a reporter asked
Meyer about whether the streak
is similar to a no-hitter in base-
ball when the players stay away
from the pitcher.
Responded Meyer: "Why
would you say that? We don't
want you here.
"I'm going to start calling you
Shelly Meyer."
Joking aside, Leak's efficiency


rating should face its hardest test
to date Saturday when he squares
away against Alabama and its
soft zone coverage.
Still, one can't help but won-
der: Is it possible for a quarter-
back to go an entire season with-
out throwing an interception?
Said center Mike Degory after
knocking on the wood of a po-
dium: "We'd like to try."


THIS AND THAT: UF has announced


that the Oct.

off at 12:30 p.m.

Washington against Kentucky.
Despite the fact that Washington's

nounce which combination of

comparison to what Alabama has accomplished. I don't care if
it did happen before the creation of the forward pass.
Steve Spurrier might be a god in Gainesville, but Bryant was
the Zeus of all pigskin.
In Degory's defense, though, he's actually the most prag-
matic Gator to .speak at the team's weekly press conference
Monday. He actually showed reverence for the Tide.
Defensive end Jeremy Mincey, not so much.
Mincey, a Statesboro, Ga., native, knows all about Alabama-
style football.
"Smash-mouth," Mincey said.
Still, Mincey spouts the kind of hubris unheard of since the


days of Achilles, or at least the Fun-N-Gun. Considering the
win against Tennessee, Mincey likes UF's chances on Saturday.
"We were a couple mistakes from beating the crap out of
them," said Mincey of the Volunteers. And since "Tennessee
has more talent than Alabama on both .sides of the ball,"
Mincey claims the Tide "shouldn't be a big problem."
It seems that for Mincey, the swagger Zooked into exile for
three years has returned.
"I think so. I honestly think so," said Mincey of whether UF
has regained its swagger. "I just see the confidence when we go
to practice. There's confidence everywhere. From the snapper
. to the kick-returning position, everybody is confident of what
they are doing, and it's starting to grow more and more." .
It's funny what one half of perfection against Kentucky can
do to a team's confidence.
Ever the realist, however, Degory isn't about to bust out his


pimp walk.
As one of few holdovers from the closest thing to a Gators
dynasty, Degory knows four games don't amount to much.
"The swagger comes with a lot of walking," Degory said.
"It's coming. Obviously [a win] would help out. [We'd] have a
little hitch in our step, maybe, but not a swagger."
He knows a 'Bama team with perhaps the toughest defense
the Gators' still-unproven offense will.face this season is backed
up by an offense with the potential to put up some numbers.
He knows that the Swamp isn't the only SEC facility to host
50,000 rabid fans in a spring scrimmage.
Degory doesn't want to incite the ghost of Bear Bryant.
On second thought, neither does Mincey.
Before wrapping up his interview session Monday, the de-
fensive end offered one final disclaimer: "I love Bear Bryant,
by the way."

Gators offense to get major test from Crimson Tide


'Bama tied for tops in SEC with 13 sacks


By ERIC ESTEBAN
Alligator Staff Writer
eesteban@alligator.org

In the days leading up to UF's season-
opener against Wyoming, Coach Urban
Me r drilled the same mantra in each
of his players heads: Put an emphasis
on preparation and it will pay off on
Saturday.
Now more than ever, the Gators must
live up to Meyer's challenge on the prac-
tice fields, preparing for arguably the most
talented .defense they will see all year
against No. 15 Alabama on Saturday.
"This is going to be a big time test,"
Meyer said. "They are experienced, and


A m


they have a lot of players back on de-
fense."
With nine starters returning from a de-
fensive unit that finished second in the na-
tion in total scoring last season, Alabama
Coach Mike Shula has the personnel to run
with UF's speedy spread offense.
The Tide's greatest strength on defense
is their secondary, which was the No. 1
pass defense in the country last year.
"I feel good about the way our corners
are playing," Shula said. "They'll be tested
more this week than any other time this
year, and we need all three of them play-
ing well."
Alabama's secondary has been on lock-
down so far this year, giving up only 144.8

yards a game through the air.
However, with a combined opponent
record this year of 4-9, Alabama is look-
ing for credibility with each chance it gets
on the field, senior defensive end Jeremy
Mincey said.
"I think they capitalize on their oppo-
nents mistakes," Mincey said. "They take
full advantage of them."
Alabama ranked first or second .in the
Southeastern Conference in scoring, pass-
ing and total defense last year and 2005
has proven to be no different behind one
of the SEC's strongest linebacker corps.
Senior DeMeco Ryans, the Tide's top re-
turning tackler, is one of the SEC's best at
stopping the run from the strong side spot.
Ryans is quick off the edge and plays best
when used in blitzing situations.
Along with Ryans, linebackers Freddie
Roach and Juwan Simpson will be looking
to stop the Gators run.
And apparently, Simpson isn't too con-
cerned about the Gators' passing game ei-
ther, despite UF quarterback Chris Leak's
319-yard performance against Kentucky.
"I'm one of those guys I've got to see
it for myself," Simpson told the Columbus
Ledger-Enquirer. "If he goes out and de-
stroys a team, he gets my respect. But he
hasn't faced us yet."
Leak will be facing a defensive scheme
that has given problems to the spread of-
fense system in the past.
Primarily utilizing a 4-3 stock defense,
Alabama defensive coordinator Joe Kines'
use of the 3-3-5 could be the difference
maker.
"They are running the odd, three-
down front around 75 or 80 percent of the
time, and we have a history of struggling
against that mentality," Meyer said. "Out
west, that was all you saw."
The advantage to running a 3-3-5 is the
added flexibility a solid safety could bring
to a table.
Upon seeing and recognizing an of-

fense formation, a 3-3-5 setup allows the
defense to adjust by preparing for the
rush, blitzing from different places or fall-
ing back to defend the pass with the extra
defensive back.
In addition to talent and a proven
scheme on defense, Alabama will hope
to rattle a UF team from which no player
has ever played a collegiate game in
Tuscaloosa.
UF has dealt with crowd noise before,

but the coaching staff has made it clear
to players of just how tough it will be to
achieve success on offense.
"They said that they are probably the
best team we face so far and they probably
have the best defense we'll face," offensive
lineman Jim Tartt said. "Their secondary
will be the best we face yet."

the independent florida N N',RecycW Not officially associated with the University of Florida VOLUME 99 ISSUE 24 SG ELECTIONS Banners may cr 0a tle r es By JUSTIN RICHARDS Alligator Writer jrichards@aIIigator.org In a potential violation of Student Government election codes, houses on fraternity row have large advertisements draped over their walls supporting and stating authorization by The Gator Party. SG election codes dictate that "posters may not exceed 352 square inches," about 19 inches by 19 inches. Several of the displays on fraternity houses span entire floors. All the banners read that they are paid political advertisements of Gator Party Treasurer Brian Seel. The codes require that the person named on the banner authorize "the creation of, disbursement of, or payment for" that banner. But Seel said he had nothing to do with the displays. Campaign material also needs the authorization of Supervisor of Elections Daniel Maland, who said he never approved the banners. Maland contends that the banners are not "posters" and are therefore not subject to the 352-square-inch requirement. This defense jars with Maland's statements at an Aug. 31 meeting with party officials, during which he reviewed the election codes with them and warned of penalties ranging from restricted campaigning to disqualification. "Watch what you do;be careful what you do," he said at the time. "Ignorance is no longer an excuse." During the meeting, Maland said Fraternity Row is considered off campus because Greek organizations bought the land from UF in the 1990s. Thus, it is not under the jurisdiction of SG statutes. The Office of Greek Lif eand University Police rfuted this argument Monday.When asked again about the advertisements, Maland said he would ask Jv the houses' occupants to Students can vote at any take down any signs that of the following locations: violated codes.

By JESSICA RIFFEL Alligator Writer Jriffel@alligator.org Gainesville Regional Utilities is urging students and residents to conserve electricity. "We already have a shortage of natural gas due to Hurricane Katrina, and Hurricane Rita further reduced the amount available," GRU spokesman Dan Jesse said. Many oil refineries and platforms along the Gulf Coast have been shut down because of the recent hurricanes. "If people don't cut back, prices will "Copyrighted Material Syndicated Content Available from Commercial News Providers" continue to rise in the future," Jesse said. "What they do now affects prices later." GRU suggests students and residents turn up the thermostat setting, turn off lights and fans when leaving a room, close curtains and blinds to keep out the heat, and limAround it washer, drier and GaIneSvIiie dishwasher use. "If the use of electricity stays down, we won't have to worry about the shortages because we'll just keep the coal [generators] running," Jesse said. Natural gas fuels GRU's generators after its coal generators are running at capacity. During high-demand periods such as hot afternoons, the natural-gas generators are used. M Human Rights Awareness on Campus won a $10,000 grant in May. Four months later, the group has yet to see a dime of it. See story, pg. 4. R Turn to pg. 6 for a special announcement addressing the controversy surrounding an editorial cartoon published in the Alligator. Some students plan to follow GRU's suggestions. UF student Carmen Bustillo said she and her three roommates are going to turn off lights and the television when they are not being used. "We're doing this for everybody's sake," Bustillo said. "The more people that do it, the less likely prices will go up for all of us." But many students do not plan to alter their habits unless there are huge electricity rate increases. UF accounting major Josh Wiseman said he still plans on using his hot tub and television the same amount. "I don't pay for that stuff anyway," he said. "My parents do." The advisory was released Friday and was renewed Monday.

TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 27, 2005 I ALLIGATOR, 3 By TIM HUSSIN Alligator Contributing Writer Students looking to earn credits overseas: Your ship may be calling. The Study Abroad Fair, this Wednesday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on the Reitz Union Colonnade, offers students the chance to learn far from home. For Erika Short, a 65-day trip across the globe with the Semester at Sea study abroad Student program was the exLife perience of a lifetime. Freezing cold in the middle of June, she awoke at midnight to see the sun disappear below the Icelandic horizon. "It was beautiful -the sun setting over the ocean," said Short, an industrial and systems engineering major. "I got used to getting up early and sitting on the back of the ship to watch the sun rise or set. I won't be able to do that many more times in my life." Among the many study abroad summer programs available, Semester at Sea took 500 students, including two from UF, to eight different countries in northern Europe. Erika Short takes a walk in a T-shirt she got in Russia during her Semester at Sea study-abroad program. The shirt translates to "Eat a beaver, save a tree."

Susanne Hill, the International Center's study abroad coordinator, said students get a global understanding through programs such as Semester at Sea. 'They get a different perspective after they have experienced how the program has widened their horizons," Hill said.

4, ALLIGATOR N TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 27, 2005 STUDENT LIFE Group strikes out on grant By ANGELA CASTELLANOS Alligator Contributing Writer Human Rights Awareness on Campus won a $10,000 grant in May. Four months later, the group has yet to see a dime of it. The Darfur Activism Award, provided by the Reebok Human Rights Foundation and mtvU, was awarded to the best startup student organization focusing on raising awareness of the genocide in Darfur. To receive the money, however, the winning organization had-to be a federally registered, 501(c)(3) tax-exempt nonprofit organization. After only a month of existence, the group was barely a student organization -let alone a tax-exempt, nonprofit one -when its president, Nikolas Wolfe, entered the contest on a whim in April 2005. When the 501(c)(3) status became an issue in receiving the grant, the group consulted Student Legal Services but without success, Treasurer Rochelle Meddoff said. "They simply told us we were not large enough or established enough to handle the responsibility," she said. Wolfe paid about $200 of his own money to gain the group's certification as a Florida nonprofit organization and to show intention of gaining 501(c)(3) status. The group hoped this would mean the grant money would be released. However, Reebok still insists on federal registration, which involves a 52-hour application process followed by an eight-month application review. But that may change after Student Sen. Ramone Looby directed the group to the Student Government business manager last week, who promised to help with the grant. "In the 20 minutes I spent with him, I was able to get more done than I hAd in the past six months," Meddoff said. "They (Student Legal Services), simply told us we were not large enough or established enough to handle the responsibility." Rochelle Meddoff Human Rights Awareness treasurer SG is researching options for the organization, helping it get the most amount of grant money in the least amount of time, Meddoff said. One option is finding a religious group to agree to be the organization's fiscal sponsor and take the check on their behalf. Without this help, she said, the group may not have seen the money until September 2006. Because the-organization began in March 2005, it has yet to receive funding from SG. "We do everything out-of-pocket at this point," Meddoff said. The 1,300.letters concerning the genocide in Darfur have since grown to around 4,000 handwritten letters from students and faculty, andthe group now has 416 people on its listserv. LGBT-aIly frat in works By DIANA MAZZELLA Alligator Writer dmazzella@alligator.org A lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender co-ed fraternity is in the planning stages at U. Organizer and UF sophomore Davier Rodriguez said he wanted to join a fraternity but thought one that supported the LGBT community was needed at UP. LGBT organizations exist on campus, but he thought they didn't have the brotherhood and closeness of a fraterity. Established fraternities that welcome LGBT members still may make them feel like they are a minority in the group, he said. Aftersixmonths of research,Rodriguez is holding meetings to determine the type of fraternity that could form. He originally planned to create a menonly fraternity that supports the LGBT community, which would mirror already existing chapters in the nation. But after an LGBT assembly two weeks ago, women expressed interest. If Rodriguez was to create a co-ed fraternity supporting the LGBT community, it would be more complicated because no such organizations currently exist, he said. If he sees interest in a co-ed fraterity, a new national organization would have to be formed, which could take five years. Before the fraternity can be created, Rodriguez would need to find out how many people would join. Having both an LGBT fraternity and a sorority is another option, he said. UF junior Chris Harper said he was interested in being a part of a fraternity like the one Rodriguez is trying to create because he liked the idea of brotherhood. He thought being in a fraterniGreek ty would give him more social Life opportunities. Rodriguez said he expects positive and negative responses. "There will be a lot of opposition in the beginning," he said. "Several fraternities on campus. have rejected members because they are LGBT," he said. The response from the LGBT community will decide if this fraternity comes into being, he said. He has heard a positiVe response from at least 25 people. Gator Gay-Straight Alliance member Jonathan Keane said although he is not interested in joining a fraternity, some people he knows might want to join otie. "I think it could be very popular with the right people in it," he said. Being a part of the LGBT community woiuld not be required to join the fraternty, which would also be a haven for those who want to learn about the community. PRESER"YE', '',YOUR"' PAR'=1wY-', 'RA'N

I would see people acting in code violation," Nielsen said. "I can still close my eyes and see people sitting on the curb bleeding from the altercations taking place." Nielsen said the penalty for an open container of alcohol should be strict enough that it cannot be ignored but added that it is within the police department's discreGainesville City tion to limit the number of fans who are "We have to make sure that when people come to Gainesville that they .are treated with dignity kind respect," he said. Connissioner Jack Donovan proposed that signs warning of the open-container law be posted along University Avenue, if feasible. Nielsen said that periodic discussion of the open-container law is prudent, and the commission would continue to adjust its position if needed. "This is an important tune-up, and we need to do'it." It is unfortunate that a "few jerks" are causing problems that stain the whole community, Commissioner Ed Braddy said. Student Government Lobby Coordinator Thomas Philpot said the discussion -provoked by the arrests of Tennessee fans at the Sept. 17 home football game -will affect police interpretation of the law. "Even if the law hasn't changed on paper, I think that a clear message has come out of this discussion," Philpot said. "I think you'll see more of amove toward evaluation of the policy on a case-by-case basis." Andrea Morales/ Alligator Sigma Chi Fraternity displays a large banner supporting The Gator Party during election week. Supervisor files complaint against Impact ELECTION, from page 1 Maland said an assistant saw Bard campaigning door-to-door in Broward, which election codes forbid, and gave him a warning. When Bard was -caught a second time, Maland said, a complaint was filed against him. His hearing will take place tonight at 9 p.m. "None of this ever happened," Bard said of Maland's account. He said he .delivered a stack of Impact T-shirts to supporters who had requested them. "I was always escorted by the people who wanted me on that floor." Bard said he was never spoken to by anyone but his Resident Assistant on the second floor, who told him that if he was door-to-door campaigning, he should stop. Impact spokesman Adam Roberts said in a phone interview that the fourth-floor Broward RA who reported the complaint is a member of the Tau Kappa Epsilon Fraternity. The Gator Party candidate for the Broward seat is a Tau Kappa Epsilon pledge. Generally, party leaders said they have been keeping each other in check rather than filing complaints. For example, Impact President Thomas Jardon said he saw a Gator Party banner on the SG-funded poles in the Plaza of the Americas. He called Maland, and Gator Party members took the banner down within 11 minutes, Jardon said. 51bs of Whey.$29.00 Free Workout with this ad! .Lsr Fall Term .$59.100 School Year $.99J100 1 Year.190 SGyM I Month or Tannis.$2.0 GAINESVILLE GYM 201 NW6TH Sr 376-8400 New Fusion Lunch Specials ,,Ma,,ddie's Pet RescueTProject of Alachua County presents 6 convenient locations, 10 hours and 200 pets for you to love MaddesPetRes cueOtAlachua rg, Thetfy Need A Pf" ace To Stay,.,.

6, ALLIGATOR N TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 27, 2005 Editorial Vte today Unlike Impact, Gator's platform is not feasible e Editorial Board has weighed in on this week's Student Government election. Now it's your tum. We didn't want to use this space to talk about somethiing that would distract you from voting today and Wednesday. That job goes to the columnists. One more time, we want to make our position clear. We support the Impact Party. We would marry the Impact Party. We might even be convinced to have 12 children with the Impact Party. But today we're going to focus on The Gator Party, just to amuse ourselves and take up space. However, before the fun, we want you to get all the facts straight on how to go about this voting thing. There are 12 on-campus voting locations. Everything will be done on computer. For the first time, you can vote at any of these locations, which will include Turlington Hall, the Reitz Union and Library East, and not be tied down to one precinct. Apparently, this has given SG officials a reason to eliminate three polling places. It's probably because they couldn't steal enough computers from campus. Seriously, why didn't they just let studentsvote on their home computers? That is apparently too economical and easy. Don't be tricked when you enter the Union. Voting is on the third floor. It is not on the first. Hopefully there will be signs, but you never know with these sneaky SG people. You might have to go through a booby trap filled with sharp objects and torture devices, all bought with your tuition money. Don't be deterred. However, you should to bring a wooden stake and silver bullets as safety precautions. Now that you've been primed for the quest before you, we shall tum to why this all shouldn't end in a vote for Gator. First off, they'll never implement true online voting. All' they talk about is how dangerous it would be to enable voting through GatorLink accounts. A big argument is that this would lead to block voting, or one person entering the votes for a group of people. Gator also argues that if you could vote on any computer, someone could stand behind you. Then we guess absentee ballots should be outlawed too. Furthermore, if we can pay our tuition, sign up for classes and look up our financial aid through the system, we can certainly vote with it. But these points have all been made before. The issues Gator is fighting for are perhaps even more troubling intheir infeasibility. Officials want to close sections of University Avenue for football games. This is a city issue. If SG represents only the small section of campus that votes, we can't see Gator convincing the city that traffic should increase just because some people want to walk in the street. Gator also wants to "increase movement toward" getting "green" buses. We don't even know what this means. Are Gator candidates going to symbolically walk toward a green bus? It's just so vague and confusing. If they mean that they'll try to fund that huge project, then that's just a little ridiculous. But the most frightening Gator platform issue is their promise of biweekly lunches with SG officials. This is an issue of mercy. More bureaucratic meetings are the last thing on our minds. Not even free food can draw us to such torture. Of course, we probably wouldn't be invited. -0R 0hendependeit florida Mike Gimignani EDITOR Eva Kis MANAGING EDITOR Emily Yehle OPINIONS EDITOR Andrew Meyer, Tom Durrenberger EDITORIAL BOARD The Afligator encourages comments from readers Letters to the editor should not exceed 150 wod o aboutt e etter-sized page).

ALLIGATOR www.alligator.org/opinions 74 L -' O G TIn 1 All at~ W|| ta e St S 1 m rVe t ~ hen we print Andy Marlette's cartoons, as with every time we decide to print someone else's opinion in the Alligator, our motives are genuine. I don't believe I've ever seen Marlette fail to make his. points. In any event, people are entitled to their opinions, which are the keystones of American life. But sometimes, good intentions lead us where we don't expect to go. We did not foresee the hurt and offense many would feel on the basis of a single word, or a single opinion, or a series of opinions. Our critics are correct: we must always take responsibility for our actions. There are those who remember a time, more than I ever could, when racially sensitive statements would have been silenced, dominated and tinged with violence. To those who felt real pain upon viewing these cartoons, I apologize. But the cartoon has stirred up so many feelings, I cannot regret that all this has happened. The controversy proves that our community has polarized on the discussion of race-sensitive issues so much, it interferes with constructive cooperation and continuing dialogue. Talk in some places has devolved into raw hate and a whole lot of empty rhetoric. The Alligator certainly is not innocent in this course of events. As a source of news and opinions for the entire campus, we must be committed to inform from the most educated positions we can have. We plan to set an example for the university by keeping these issues in the spotlight, now that they are exposed. We have taken some of the first steps, with the help of administrators and campus groups, and I invite everyone to suggest ways the Alligator can make this a learning experience for all. First, we must take steps beyond the typical open houses and speeches in reporting classes to encourage fresh, diverse voices to speak with the Alligator. We're reopening our doors. Apply as a writer or an editorial board member, and you could have a significant say in what the national UP community reads on a daily basis. Mike Gimignani Let this also be an invitation for Editorial Notebook comments from anyone who has mgimignanieagator.org held back opinions in the past, or who sees wrongs being comnitted in our community. -The Alligator's job is to expose injustice for the benefit of everyone. We try very hard right now to do this; but we must try even harder in future, and for that we need your help. I am confident the changes we make to our approach will lead to widespread discussion and growth among students, faculty and staff. On the other hand, I know Marlette wouldn't agree to change his opinions for sensitivity reasons. In fact, there are many readers, not separated by race, gender or status, who consider it wrong for us to temper anyone's opinion for the benefit of anyone else. I wish there were a simple truth I could deliver which will satisfy all angles of this debate, but it's not the Alligator's job to tell anyone what to say or how to say it. As a newspaper editor, I can tell you that censorship of any kind is dangerous to everybody. Remember that many cases of genocide and oppression started in censors' hands. I remember an Alligator columnist who two years ago, after another cartoon drew ire from campus groups, put the paper's dilenuna in perspective: "When free speech goes, the first people to suffer are minorities." That sage advice came from Marlette himself. Mike Ginignani is editor of the Alligator. The views expressed here are not necessarily those of the Alligator.

Column Focus needs to return to Iraq I'm going to be insensitive. In fact, I'm probably an absolute jerk. But it's time we get our minds -and the national media -to turn away a little from the hurricanes and return to the fact that we're in a war with no end in sight. Don't get me wrong: The victims of Katrina and Rita have all my sympathy. I'm not saying we shouldn't continue our donations, but it's time to split our focus. The anti-war movement should build momentum now that our nation has had the chance to see the bumbling response to Katrina. It's been four years since Sept. 11, 2001, and our Department of Homeland Security is still so inadequately prepared that we don't even need an international terrorist to show the lack of real plans to real disasters. And who's to say that the same thing hasn't been happening in Iraq? Bush has shown that unless the public and media continue to view his policies under microscopic scrutiny, things fall apart faster than a Hollywood romance. And how have things been faring in Iraq? The latest debacle features the Iraqi constitution, which will go to a referendum Oct. 15. The constitution is anything but secular, enshrining Islam as the official state religion and stating that no law can be passed which contradicts the rules of Islam. Didn't hear Amy Elsinger any mention of women? Left Out That's because the conletters@alligator.org stitution leaves out any statement of their rights entirely. We should be ashamed that the occupying multi-national forces that helped draft this constitution allowed these pseudo-representations of democracy to slide. But not all focus on the war has been lost. Last weekend, anti-war rallies were held in the United States and in London. At least 100,000 citizens gathered in Washington. In London, 10,000 protesters took to the streets Saturday, topping the number of troops Britain has stationed in Iraq by 1,500. Why aren't these stories still making headlines across the nation? Have Americans and media alike become bored with a seemingly pointless war? Try talking "boredom" to the -families of the 1,900 members of the U.S. Armed Forces whose lives have been lost since the war began. This war remains just as serious as ever, and our lack of attention won't make it disappear like a bad dream at the break of dawn. If we want to see a stop anytime soon, it's going to have to come from an informed and outraged public. Amy Eisinger is an English and classics junior. Her column appears on Tuesday. TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 27, 2005 U ALLIGATOR, 7 Letters to the Editor Air show wastes fuel in gas crisis I would like to thank the federal government and the U.S. Navy for yet another act of irresponsibility. We are being told to cut back on fuel usage and only drive when necessary. Gasoline prices went up because yet another hurricane was threatening our Gulf Coast on the same day oil prices dropped $2 a barrel. Yet the Blue Angels can afford to bum thousands of dollars' worth of aviation fuel that our tax dollars pay for, while select individuals and local govenunent profit from the parking and $15 admission fee. Thank you, U.S. Navy, for leading the way in the government's conservation policy while our fuel prices continue to soar and the U.S. Government does nothing to curb the price increases. I guess conservation is only for the private sector, not the government. John D. Kotsay Gainesville resident One kind act reveals Impact's true commitment to UF students When I first got to Gainesville, all I could think about was football and wild parties. Little did I know how serious Student Government is at UEp The other day while walking through Turlington Plaza, I noticed many people from both the Gator and Impact parties. At first I had no clue who these people were, and my gut instinct was to avoid them. When 1 walked past the tower, I dropped several dozen loose note cards I was carrying to class. It was pretty windy that day, and after a night of sleep deprivation, I was just about ready to have a breakdown right then and there. But just as the cards fell across the pavement, someone in a red shirt from the plaza across the street pointed at me and yelled something out loud to the others. While I reacted to the scream with a sigh of confusion, half a dozen red shirts sprinted across the street, one almost getting hit by a moving car, and they descended around me to pick up my note cards. I didn't know what to say. I was caught off guard by their kindness. I figured they'd start to butter me up, but no one did. So I asked them about their party. I'm no expert on SG and probably never will be, but one thing I know for sure is that if these Impact kids would sprint more than a hundred feet to the rescue of just one student, one student who may not have voted for them or voted at-all, then you just have to cut across all the red tape and all the rhetoric. It's not about who promises you the biggest things or who pledges to work the most hours. What counts is who's ready to help you in the here and now with no strings attached. I'm voting Impact, and I hope you willtoo.

TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 27, 2005 Gator backs sti vie for s ti. n By ANDREW ABRAMSON and 46 LOUIS ANASTASIS Alligator Staff Writers Although DeShawn Wynn may have become the first player in UF history to score four touchdowns twice in his career after accomplishing the feat against Kentucky, both head coach Urban Meyer and running backs coach Stan Drayton said the Gators will use a committee of running backs for now. Despite Wynn's four-touchdown Though tailback DeShawn Wynn has seen the bulk of UF's carries, he has yet to establish himself as the Gators' primary back. performance, Meyer said no running back has raised himself to a high enough level to justify 20 to 25 carries a game. Drayton said Wynn will get the majority of the carries against Alabama, but he hasn't made the position his own yet. "We have a bunch of guys who bring a lot to the table," Drayton said. "Right now, that is what's helping this football team win ball games, and we're going to play that card until there's a guy who says 'Hey this is my position. .and you have to go through me to get it.' Right now we have guys working through that mentality but we're not quite there yet." After being buried on the bench behind Wynn and true freshman Kestaln Moore, Skyler Thornton -who finished the 2004 season as UF's No. 2 back -is once again the backup tailback, at least for now. Meyer said Thornton handled his demotion well, which has helped him persevere and reclaim a spot in the lineup. "There are a couple ways to handle not playing," Meyer said. "One way is to make phone calls and pout and stick your lower lip out, and those guys will continue not to play. That, or you can be like our guy Skyler Thornton, who, to be honest with you, did that for a couple weeks. Then Skyler thought, 'You know what? This is not working. This lower lip stuff might have worked when I was 6 years old to get my jelly beans or something like that, but its not getting me on the field."'

TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 27, 2005 U ALLIGATOR, 15 Gators knock on wood for Leak's streak; Tartt in hunt to start at guard FOTBALL, from page 14 SUPERSTITIOUS GATORS: Shh. Keep it down about quarterback Chris Leak and his interceptionless streak. After four games, Leak has thrown nine touchdowns but has yet to be picked. Just don't mention the streak inside UF's locker room. Monday, a reporter asked Meyer about whether the streak is similar to a no-hitter in baseball when the players stay away from the pitcher. Responded Meyer: "Why would you say that? We don't want you here. "I'm going to start calling you Shelly Meyer." Joking aside, Leak's efficiency rating should face its hardest test to date Saturday when he squares away against AlAbama and its soft zone coverage. Still, one can't help but wonder: Is it possible for a quarterback to go an entire season without throwing an interception? Said center Mike Degory after knocking on the wood of a podium: "We'd like to try." THIS AND THAT: UF has announced that the Oct. 8 homecoming game against Mississippi State will kickoff at 12:30 p.m. Meyer loved what he saw from offensive lineman Jim Tartt when he replaced the injured Tavares Washington against Kentucky. Despite the fact that Washington's hyperextended elbow has healed, Meyer will wait until after this week's Bloody Tuesday to announce which combination of Tartt, Washington and Drew Miller will start at the guard positions. "CopyrightedMateria p 1 Syndicated ContententL. Available from Commercial News Providers"A& APP, from page 14 comparison to what Alabama has accomplished. I don't care if it did happen before the creation of the forward pass. Steve Spurrier might be a god in Gainesville, but Bryant was the Zeus of all pigskin. In Degory's defense, though, he's actually the most pragmatic Gator to .speak at the team's weekly press conference Monday. He actually showed reverence for the Tide. Defensive end Jeremy Mincey, not so much. Mincey, a Statesboro, Ga., native, knows all about Alabamastyle football. "Smash-mouth," Mincey said. Still, Mincey spouts the kind of hubris unheard of since the days of Achilles, or at least the Fun-N-Gun. Considering the win against Tennessee, Mincey likes UF's chances on Saturday. "We were a couple mistakes from beating the crap out of them," said Mincey of the Volunteers. And since "Tennessee has more talent than Alabama -on both .sides of the ball," Mincey claims the Tide "shouldn't be a big problem." It seems that for Mincey, the swagger Zooked into exile for three years has returned. "I think so. I honestly think so," said Mincey of whether UF has regained its swagger. "I just see the confidence when we go to practice. There's confidence everywhere. From the snapper to the kick-returning position, everybody is confident of what they are doing, and it's starting to grow more and more." It's funny what one half of perfection against Kentucky can do to a team's confidence. Ever the realist, however, Degory isn't about to bust out his pimp walk. As one of few holdovers from the closest thing to a Gators dynasty, Degory knows four games don't amount to much. "The swagger comes with a lot of walking," Degory said. "It's coming. Obviously [a win] would help out. [We'd] have a little hitch in our step, maybe, but not a swagger." He knows a 'Bama team with perhaps the toughest defense the Gators'still-unproven offense will face this season is backed up by an offense with the potential to put up some numbers. He knows that the Swamp isn't the only SEC facility to host 50,000 rabid fans in a spring scrimmage. Degory doesn't want to incite the ghost of Bear Bryant. On second thought, neither does Mincey. Before wrapping up his interview session Monday, the defensive end offered one final disclaimer: "I love Bear Bryant, by the way." the (HAMTON Jai-Alai & Poker

16, ALLIGATOR 0 TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 27, 2005 Gators offense to get major test from Cri son Tide 'Bama tied for tops in SEC with 13 sacks By ERIC ESTEBAN Alligator Staff Writer eesteban@allgator.org In the days leading up to UF's seasonopener against Wyoming, Coach Urban Mey-r drilled the same mantra in each of his players heads: Put an emphasis on preparation and it will pay off on Saturdays. Now more than ever, the Gators must live up to Meyer's challenge on the practice fields, preparing for arguably the most talented defense they will see all year against No. 15 Alabama on Saturday. "This is going to be a big time test," Meyer said. "They are experienced, and they have a lot of players back on defense." With nine starters retuning from a defensive unit that finished second in the nation in total scoring last season, Alabama Coach Mike Shula has the personnel to run with UF's speedy spread offense. The Tide's greatest strength on defense is their secondary, which was the No. 1 pass defense in the country last year. "I feel good about the way our corners are playing," Shula said. "They'll be tested more this week than any other time this year, and we need all three of them playing well." Alabama's secondary has been on lockdown so far this year, giving up only 144.8 "Copyrighted Material Syndicated Content Ak Available from Commercial News Providers" yards a game through the air. However, with a combined opponent record this year of 4-9, Alabama is looking for credibility with each chance it gets on the field, senior defensive end Jeremy Mincey said. "I think they capitalize on their opponents mistakes," Mincey said. "They take full advantage of them." Alabama ranked first or second in the Southeastern Conference in scoring, passing and total defense last year and 2005 has proven to be no different behind one of the SEC's strongest linebacker corps. Senior DeMeco Ryans, the Tide's top returning tackler, is one of the SEC's best at stopping the run from the strong side spot. Ryans is quick off the edge and plays best when used in blitzing situations. Along with Ryans, linebackers Freddie Roach and Juwan Simpson will be looking to stop the Gators run. And apparently, Simpson isn't too concerned about the Gators' passing game either, despite UF quarterback Chris Leak's 319-yard performance against Kentucky. "I'm one of those guys I've got to see it for myself," Simpson told the Columbus Ledger-Enquirer. "If he goes out and destroys a team, he gets my respect. But he hasn't faced us yet." Leak will be facing a defensive scheme that has given problems to the spread offense system in the past. Primarily utilizing a 4-3 stock defense, Alabama defensive coordinator Joe Kines' use of the 3-3-5 could be the difference maker. "They are running the odd, threedown front around 75 or 80 percent of the time, and we have a history of struggling against that mentality," Meyer said. "Out west, that was all you saw." The advantage to running a 3-3-5 is the added flexibility a solid safety could bring to a table. Upon seeing and recognizing an ofV\ NCAA Top-10 Defenses G Yds. Yds./G TDs 1. Tulane 2 352 176,00 4 2.

In addition to talent and a proven scheme on defense, Alabama will hope to rattle a UTF team from which no player has ever played a collegiate game in Tuscaloosa. UF has dealt with crowd noise before, but the coaching staff has made it clear to players of just how tough it will be to achieve success on offense. "They said that they are probably the best team we face so far and they probably have the best defense we'll face," offensive lineman Jim Tartt said. "Their secondary will be the best we face yet."
