UF students trying new drug
By JUSTIN RICHARDS
Alligator Writer
jrichards@alligator.org
The pills were new, cheap and illegal. He
had to try them.
Little did he know he'd want to make his
first hit the last one he ever took.
"I was born into a new world, and it
was slightly scary," he wrote in his online
journal Tuesday. "I am attempting to give
up drugs for a while. I need to take time
to appreciate the world that I am living in
constantly, without effects of outside sub-
stances."
The student, who asked to remain anon-
ymous, is one of a number at UF who have
tried psychoactive drugs of the "2C" family,
which includes 2C-B and 2C-I.
The chemicals have become popular in
Student last few years, partially due
Life to their availability on the
Internet.
The drugs were first created in the 1980s
as a legal alternative to Ecstasy but have
since been made illegal. Those that were
not banned can be prosecuted via a provi-
sion in drug laws that allows similar drugs
to yield equal punishment.
Some users report a sensory experience
- vibrant lights, enhanced touch with
2C-B and a more cognitive experience with
2C-I.
However, the drug is not well-studied.
UF pharmacy professor Paul Doering il-
lustrated the drug's mystery by drawing a
big red question mark on his whiteboard.
"The side of me that's scared of the dark
keeps me from doing these drugs," Doering
said.
The drug has the same chemical skel-
eton as amphetamine, Ecstasy and the hu-
man hormone adrenaline.
Because of its stimulative quality,

Gay, lesbian, bisexual and
transgender students came out
Tuesday. So did a rugby player, a
diva, a "Wicked" fan and a few
slackers.
Near a white closet door that
bore a simple black-and-white,
computer-printed sign reading
"Closet Door," passersby were
asked to wear a
On nametag denoting
Campus they came out as a
particular thing and
to step through the door to cel-
ebrate National Coming Out Day.
About 40 people went through
the door, Student Government's
LGBTQ, Student Affairs Cabinet
Director Ricardo Cortez said.
He described the event as be-
ing for the LGBT community and
also as a way to develop support
in the straight community.
"It is becoming a safe campus, so
it is OK to come out," Cortez said.
The purpose of National
Coming Out Day, organized by
the Human Rights Campaign
Foundation, is to encourage indi-
viduals to be open about their sex-
uality, according to its Web site.

out as a slacker and was skipping
class at the moment, he said.
He said he thought the event
was to support the LGBT commu-
nity and to let them know there
are people who will not judge
them.
"I think it's a creative way to
lighten up a tough subject," he
said.
Ladd said he was from
Fort Lauderdale and thought
Gainesville was the first place
where he encountered people un-
comfortable with LGBT issues.
As the clouds threatened a
downpour but sent only a few
drops, a few students stopped by
and posed for pictures as they
walked through the door.
Diane Kassim, former Student
Senate president, came out as a
diva, and Jessica A Kornick, a
business management sophomore,
came out as a rugby player.
PSU member Nick Dean said
the idea of the event was to in-
clude people who are not LGBT..
Pride Student Union President
Allison Andrews said something
similar was done by Gator Gay-
Straight Alliance about three years
ago.
"National Coming Out day is
supposed to be a time where you
talk about sexuality issues," she

steps up
* SHELLEY MEYER BACKS
UF'S NEWEST CELEBRITY.
By KYLIE CRAIG
Alligator Writer
kcraig@alligator.org
Shelley Meyer is on a mission -
it's 30 minutes before kickoff, and
her champagne glass is empty.
Meyer is at a tailgate party.
Not just any tailgate party, but
the tailgate party for the families
of Gator football coaches under
the stadium where her husband
will lead the Gator football team
in the Homecoming game against
Mississippi State.
Before arriving, Meyer went
on her gameday run and made
her wardrobe decision one
based on superstition. The Gators'
loss against Alabama the previous
week led Meyer to change her
typical blue and orange tie-dye
shorts to'a khaki pair. She keeps
the same outfit on when the
Gators win.
"These shorts are 4-1," she
said.
A win today could 'mean pos-
sibly a little more time with her
husband during the week. A loss
could mean her kids in tears due
to their father's sadness.
These are all parts of being Mrs.
Coach Meyer, wife of Gainesville's
biggest celebrity.
The Gators won, but life in the
Meyer household is hardly calm.
To say her life is busy would be an
understatement.
A lot is going on the next day,
but Shelley Meyer said Sunday is
easy 'compared with most days.

UF libraries promote chatting
By ELIZABETH HILLAKER
Alligator Contributing Writer
Students can chat with UF
librarians in their underwear.
Online, that is.
Librarians field questions and
give research advice online from
various UF libraries.
It was a natural way to help
students and faculty by increas-
ing the libraries' reference capa-
bilities, said associate university
librarian Jana Ronan in an in-
stant-messaging interview.
The program started about
three weeks ago, and the librar-
ies are just starting to promote it,
she said.
The software did not cost the
library system any money to in-
stall, and the librarians work in-
stant-messaging shifts into their
schedules, Ronan said. Instant
messaging with volunteer librar-
ians will be available on all of the
public computers by the end of
the term, she said.
Librarians are available to
chat online during regular li-
brary hours, Monday through
Thursday 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. and
Friday 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
"This is an easy way to get
answers without having to
tromp over here," said Valerie
Davis, the outreach librarian for
Agricultural Sciences Library
system.
"This is an easy way to
get answers without hav-
ing to tromp over here."

outreach librarian
"I think if people knew about
it, it would be a nice resource,"
said Ladaun Jackson, a linguis-
tics major. "Sometimes when I'm
navigating the library's Web site,
I find it difficult, and it would be
so nice to be able to speak with a
real live person and not have to
walk down to the library."
Students need to download
the university's Jabber Messaging
program. It can be used with
Windows, Mac or LINUX oper-
ating systems. Students need a
GatorLink ID and password to
access the service.
It is easy to install and con-
venient, said Laurie Brennan,
the computer-support specialist
for Marston Science Library.
If students follow the instruc-
tions on the libraries' Web site
at www.uflib.ufl.edu under the
"Ask a Librarian" section, it
should take about two minutes
to download, she said.
Questions about which li-
brary a book is in, finding litera-
ture on in-depth research proj-
ects and general UF questions
are common, she said. Librarians
help point students in the right
direction to find and use the ap-
propriate resources while they
are researching online, she said.

ing the program are available

Senate on the move
By DAVID COHEN
Alligator Writer.
dcohen@alligator.org
Student Senate could host its
next meeting at a basketball court.
Or a library. Or a classroom lab.
- Newly elected Senate
President John Boyles presented
a few recommendations for the
new term Tuesday night, includ-
ing a proposition to change the
Senate's meeting locations a few
times each term. Normally, Senate
meets every Tuesday in the Reifz
Union Room 282.
He discussed hopping around
campus to sites like the McKnight
Brain Institute, Library West and
a basketball practice facility.
Sen. Pedro Morales said he
liked the idea. He said being geo-
graphically closer, to campus or-
ganizations would be beneficial.
He would also like a cooler room.
"It gets really hot in there, es-
pecially in the back," he said.
Boyles said he wants to have
entertaining events at the weekly
meetings, including a speech by
UF men's basketball coach Billy
Donovan and raffling off memo-
rabilia to those present.
"The hope is that Senate will be
reaching out
Student to the students
Government in a different
way," he said.
Another recommendation of
Boyles' -was to form a committee
to find out how many students
attend UF satellite campuses and
how much money they contribute
to UF's main campus budget.
UF's nine satellite campuses
have not received tuition-funded
Activity & Service Fee benefits,
except for a few instances. These
students pay the same fees as
main-campus UF students.

Law panelists offer Party Patrol, gameday advice
* STUDENTS QUESTION UNI-
VERSITY, POLICE OFFICIALS.
By CASSIDY MILLS
Alligator Contributing Writer
Lately, Gainesville residents
have been urinating outdoors
more than usual.
That and other legal concerns
were presented at the UF-sponsored
Laws Over Lunch on Monday.
Hosted by Campus Diplomats,
the event offered students an op-
portunity to speak with a panel
of experts over free pizza on the
Reitz Union Colonnade.
The lunch gave students insight
into their rights when dealing with
police, such as what to do when an
officer enters a party.
Underage drinking and alco-
hol laws were popular subjects
with both students and panelists,
who represented Student Judicial
Affairs, Student Legal Services,
the Office of the Ombudsman and
University Police.
When asked about alcohol
policies at football games, Jyrece
McClendon, a panelist and gradu-
ate assistant in Student Judicial
Affairs, said students lose their
season tickets if they are found
with alcohol in Ben Hill Griffin
Stadium.
UPD Capt. Jeff Holcomb
warned students that they could
also be denied admission to Gators
games if they show up drunk.
But when concerned students
pressed Holcomb on the subject,
he said, "If you don't smell alcohol
on 20,000 of the 90,000 fans pres-
ent, I'm impressed."
When students asked about
Party Patrol, Daintry Cleary, di-
rector of Student Legal Services,
said to keep guests inside the-
apartment or house and out of
the parking lot and surrounding
areas.
If a police officer knocks at the
door during a party, Cleary said
the best policy is to step outside
and close the door to speak with
him or her.
As long as the police officer is
-not invited inside the home, he or
she has no right to enter, she said.
Holcomb said students.should
be aware of offenses like public
urination, which seem trivial but
are punishable by arrest.
Cleary said DUIs are offenses
that create some of the biggest
problems for students, including
lost jobs and internship opportu-
nities as well as substantial legal
fees.
"If you get a DUI, it will be on
your record for the rest of your
life," Cleary said. "It cannot be
expunged."
NORML pushes reform
By LYNDSEY BECHTEL
Alligator Contributing Writer
With a serious face, Kris Krane
clenched his notes Monday night and
said, "The reality is that everybody
smokes pot."
A crowd of 150 people stared back
awkwardly, not knowing how to react.
"Well, not everybody but every age,
every race, every class and every walk of
life smokes pot," said Krane, associate
director of the National Organization for
the Reform of Marijuana Laws. "If people
weren't so afraid to talk about it, we could
get a lot more done."
Hosted by NORML UF, Krane spoke
about local political efforts to reform mar-
ijuana laws in the Computer Science &
Engineering Building, citing the efforts of
FSU's chapter of NORML for an initiative
de-prioritizing marijuana enforcement.
With the help of UF, UCF and FAU
NORML chapters, de-prioritization can
be placed on the Florida ballot, he said.
"If you're a guy with long hair, pull
it back, wear a suit and talk to your state
legislator," he said. "If the NORML chap-
ters from all over Florida take two trips
per semester to go to Tallahassee, we can
get some serious stuff done."
The cities of Detroit and Columbia,
Mo., have already passed similar mari-
juana de-prioritization laws due to efforts
from local NORML chapters.
"The reality is that everybody
smokes pot."
Kris Krane.
associate director, National Organiza-
tion for the Reform of Marijuana Laws
Krane said 82 million Americans have
smoked marijuana at least once.
He explained that NORML's goal is to
legalize the safe and responsible use of
marijuana by adults. He graduated from
American University and started work-
ing with NORML in Washington, D.C., to
influence political opinion about medici-
nal marijuana and decriminalization.
Jaylen McGrew, vice president of
NORML UF, helped book Krane and
other speakers scheduled for the Fall.
"Our main goal on campus is to edu-
cate," McGrew said. "[Krane] understood
that we're not here to get high. We have
an agenda."

Maui Teriyaki closed briefly for health concerns
* RESTAURANT REOPENED SOON
AFTER A SECOND INSPECTION.
By JESSICA RIFFEL
Alligator Writer
jriffel@alligator.org
A health inspector shut down Maui
Teriyaki on Monday after he found bugs in the
restaurant, a Florida Department of Business
and Professional Regulation official said.
"The inspector observed at least two dozen
live roaches," said Geoff Luebkemann, the di-
rector for the department's Division of Hotels
and Restaurants.
The Gator Plaza restaurant passed a sec-
ond inspection Tuesday afternoon and was
reopened.
"It's routine to have bug problems in res-
taurants," Maui Teriyaki owner Steve Marzke
said. "It comes with the business. It's just not
something you talk about. This is Florida
- there are bugs."
Marzke has received warnings from
inspectors in the past, as have many other
restaurants in Gainesville, but this time the
inspector shut down the restaurant.
"This was an extreme reaction of one par-
ticular inspector," Marzke said. "I'm a little
baffled, but it just depends on which inspector
you get. They're all doing their job. This one
just took it to the extreme."
Marzke thought the inspector was tough
but ultimately fair.
"If we have a problem, we want to get it
taken care of," Marzke said. "We are doing
everything we can. Their goal is to protect
the public, and we like that. We don't want
anybody to get sick at our
Around restaurants."
Gainesville The health inspection
came after the Florida
Department of Business and Professional
Regulation received an anonymous tip.
Marzke said the tip could have come from
a fired employee, a developer for University
Comers or even a customer with a grudge.
"You just never know who it was," he said.
Marzke added that relations between him
and University Comers developers, against
whom he threatened a lawsuit last month,

After being shut down Monday, Marzke's

"It's been solved," Marzke said. "We took

Justice deficit
SG Elections Commission
rejects valid complaints
WT we're truly sick of constantly exposing all the illegal and
W immoral activities of Student Government.
The lies and incompetence are unbelievably bla-
tant; yet even when something is proven to be wrong, no one is
ever held accountable.
It's a disgrace to this university and makes students apa-
thetic to their government and the overseeing administration.
Part of this problem is accountability, and that all begins with
the SG Elections Commission.
Violation after violation occurs, and the commissioners toss
it aside because of technicalities that they read into the codes.
Yes, we've read the codes, and these commissioners are com-
pletely out of line.
For instance, the election codes clearly state that lists of poll-
ing places must be posted and sent to campus newspapers no
later than the Wednesday before an election.
We didn't get anything until at least Thursday afternoon.
But when Alligator University Editor Bridget Carey filed a
complaint about the statute, it was rejected for "lack of stand-
ing" suspiciously just three minutes after the deadline to
submit complaints.
Only students can file complaints, and because Carey's filing
featured evidence provided by the Alligator, the commission
claimed she was an agent of the newspaper.
The same thing happened with another open-and-shut com-
plaint when The Gator Party was found not guilty of posting
campaign banners on poles in the Plaza of the Americas spon-
sored with student money.
But the commissioners didn't decide. Instead, they "discov-
ered" a technicality on the complaint forms and rejected it.
Dismissed and never heard again because the Impact Party
got a number wrong? When an election comes down to crossing
the "t" and dotting the "i," we have to wonder how fair it is.
This is not a commission out for justice; this is a commission
suspiciously dedicated to the god of technicalities.
Herein lies the main obstruction with the pursuit of SG jus-
tice: The commission has no accountability for its actions.
It begins with how the board is chosen. Two are nominated
by the Student Body president, two by the Senate president and
two by the chief justice of the SG Supreme Court.
This year, the chief justice is Tobi Butensky. During her reign,
the court rejected a petition to put online voting on the Spring
ballot. Butensky claimed the document was "ambiguous" in
whether it asked for an initiative or a referendum.
The petition mentioned the word "initiative" four times and
never even referred to a referendum.
And Student Body President Joe Goldberg has committed a
slew of acts we think violate SG statutes and Florida law. It's too
bad none of them have been brought up in court.
Such people should not be choosing who upholds the elec-
tion statutes.
But our favorite part of the SG election codes is the asser-
tion that any law proposed by the Elections Commission must
be approved by the Student Senate to ensure a "separation of
power."
We're glad the Senate's almost complete control over SG is
protected by the election codes in the name of checks and bal-
ances.
And while this is ostensibly because the student body should
have a say, the commission only has to post any proposed laws
in the SG offices.
We don'tthink this is written for the ease of constituents.
Have these guys ever heard of the Internet?
In essence, these officials are all cogs in the same machine;
they all come to the table with the same partisan goals.
It's time for an intervention.

Founding Fathers' beliefs legally dated
S hakespeare was wrong. We need more lawyers.
I'll clarify, because that was clearly a blatant at-
tempt at grabbing your attention with a ridiculously
controversial statement.
The current legal environment is churning out situa-
tions of such complexity as to make clear the need for more
knowledgeable legal talent. Cases are arising that present
unique challenges and create a new atmosphere that calls
for an entirely different approach to jurisprudence.
The Tennessee Supreme Court ruled Thursday 4-1
that Cindy Culpepper, who had given birth to triplets
conceived with another woman's eggs, has legal rights
as a mother. Charles Galiwango, the father of the triplets
and Culpepper's boyfriend, had asked two lower courts to
grant him exclusive custody of the children, as Culpepper
had no genetic relationship with the children.
Galiwango and his attorney have not yet decided
whether to appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court, according to
an article in The Tennessean.
Frank F. Drowota, the now-retired chief justice of the
Tennessee Supreme Court who wrote the majority opinion
in the case, tried to explain the new world this case has
revealed.
"Recent developments in reproductive technology have
caused a tectonic shift in the realities which underlie our
legal conceptions of parenthood," Drowota wrote in the
opinion: "This technological fragmentation of the procre-
ative process ... has engendered a bewildering variety of
possibilities which are not easily reconciled with our tradi-
tional definitions of 'mother,' 'father' and 'parent.'"
What he said.
This brave new world will require lawyers and judges
of astonishing intelligence and creativity. And that obser-
vation leads us, inevitably, to hard questions about Harriet
Miers, President Bush's most recent nominee for the
Supreme Court. These are necessary questions, and I have
no doubt they'll be asked frequently of Miers.
But Miers isn't the greatest is-
sue here.
If this brave new world requires
new personnel, it also will require
new thoughts and philosophies. It
will require new approaches be-
Andrew Bare cause these are new problems.
The Bare Truth Hence, the greater issue raised
letters@alligator.org by the Tennessee case is the funda-
mental weakness of what President
Bush calls "strict constructionism,"
or what many in the legal community call a belief in
"original intent." Never has it been more clear that a legal
philosophy centered on an almost religious devotion to the
thoughts and beliefs of our Founding Fathers is inadequate
to modem challenges.
The Constitution of the United States was completed
in 1787. We now live in a world that our ,18th-century
heroes could never have imagined. We live in a world of
telephones and television, of the Internet and almost instan-
taneous communication. We live in a world where blacks
and women vote and where our armed forces are spread
around the world.
And we live in a world where mothers can give birth to
children to whom they have made no genetic contribution.
This is not the time to rely exclusively on the legal wis-
dom of men who died before the invention of the telegraph.
Look to the past, yes, by all means. Learn from it, of course.
But ultimately, each new generation must forge its own
legal identity, an identity adapted to and cognizant of the
complexity of its own peculiar time.
The world of American jurisprudence must be shaped
by the independent thoughts of men and women like
Harriet Miers not by minds chained to the ideals of the
18th century.

Guest column
Society throws away lives
W hat is life nowadays but a
mere card in the deck that
our society so inappropri-
ately dubs power? We deal the war
card when we see fit, perhaps throw
out some "environmental" legislation
- which really doesn't help the envi-
ronment at all and of course, throw
the life card in the discard pile when-
ever it hinders our game.
Alas, time does not permit me to go
on about those things, but I must say
that the recent column by Josh Gellers
regarding abortion was disgusting, to
say the very least.
I am not a liberal or a conservative
because such terms are arbitrary, but I
do know right from wrong.
To say that 46 million dead in our
country is not a big deal is the grossest
disregard for life that I have had the
misfortune to be exposed to.
Age is not a factor. A fetus, an infant,
a teenager, a middle-aged adult, an el-
derly person and, yes, even a comatose
person, are all living things! This is not
a religious point of view; science itself
proves that life exists at all of these
levels.
That is to say, life does, indeed, begin
at conception.
The callous distortion of pro-life
views by the recent article, saying that
life begins "when you look a person of
the opposite sex squarely in the eyes
with romantic intentions" is absurd.
Satire or not, it is ridiculous.
Anthony M. What is most
Piferrer striking about
Speaking Out the article is the
fact that so many
Americans have
apparently adopted the view that in our
technological and societal might, we
have thus bestowed upon ourselves the
power to dominate not just the unborn,
but the elderly and those who cannot
fend for themselves either. Remember
Terri Schiavo?
These are not just the signs of an
age where eugenics will eventually
take hold, but of a society so ignorant
of living things that it borders on an
Orwellian system.
If the living thing cannot fend for it-
self or do any good for the society, many
believe the more powerful have the
right to terminate its life for the greater
productivity of the masses.
Whatever happened to our "right
to life and liberty" as stated in the
Declaration of Independence? The
weak are being subjected to the power
of the strong and, in many- cases, are
being stripped of their right to live,
period. Terri Schiavo and the 46 million
"tiny organisms" can vouch for that.
To deny life, under any circumstanc-
es, is sheer manipulation, maliciously
and falsely puissant and wrong.
Wake up America, for it seems Death
is knocking on many a door.
AF th,:.nopl Mr. Piferrer is a history and
French sophomore.
Letters to the Editor
Abortion deprives person of experience
In Tuesday's guest column, Josh Gellers
poses the question, "Is bringing a child into a
life of poverty not a crime in itself?"
No one can deny that life is fraught with
sadness and suffering. To be human is to be
constantly faced with hardships. Every child
aborted is preserved from these things.
But from what else are they preserved?
They will never know what it is to fall in love,
to make a new friend, or to hold and nurture
children of their own. They will never know.
what it is to find meaning in their suffering.
They will never know what it is to be alive.
Like Mr. Gellers, I too see a crime here. I
see a crime in depriving another person of the
things we all take for granted.

Religion only reinforces existing values
In her Tuesday letter, Tara Fox argues that
"ideas of goodness, compassion and under-
standing.. .have been put into the very core of
our being by an 'intelligent designer.'"
If we follow Tara's argument, the only rea-
son we have these ideals is because they were
put there by an "intelligent designer." That
means our designer could have just as easily
made wrongdoing, indifference and lying
part of our core values. If you argue an "in-
telligent designer" would never make such
things part of our values because they result
in hurt, then you acknowledge that there are
moral values that exist outside of religion.
Hence, the only connection between re-
ligion and morality is that religion serves to
reinforce a set of values that existed prior to a
supposed "intelligent designer."
Eddie Geller

Man knows what's right from reason
Tara Fox wrote Tuesday that reason has
led her to believe that moral values have been
placed into her by an "intelligent designer."
How is she to know what was "put in"
to the "core" of her being is, in fact, moral?
She is denying the only way man is able to
acquire knowledge reason and claiming
the absence of free will in the deterministic
nature of her input morals.
Like many, she simply accepts what she
"feels< to be morally "good" as right and at-
tributes this "feeling" to a supernatural being
before ever rationally analyzing why.
Such analysis would lead Tara to retract
her statement about "selfishness" and realize
that man working for his own rational self-in-
terest, never sacrificing himself to others nor
sacrificing others to himself, is the objectively
moral way to live.

Effects of 2C still unclear; may have harmful long-term effects on body
DRUG, from page 1
Doering said an overdose of a 2C drug
could cause a stroke or cardiac arrhyth-
mia.
The recommended dose is between 10
and 25 milligrams.
Doering said 2C drugs stimulate the re-
lease of neurotransmitters like serotonin,
dopamine and ephedrine, which normally
maintain mental balance in the brain.
He said tolerance of the drug increases
as levels of those chemicals are depleted
by 2C use. As with cocaine, higher doses
are then required to achieve the same
chemical rush.
Doering compared repeated release of
those neurotransmitters to wringing water
from a sponge. After excessive use, the
sponge could go dry.
Even worse, research on Ecstasy sug-
gests a possibility that the "serotonin fac-
tory catches fire and burns out," he said.
When the sponge is wrung, though,
these chemicals cause euphoria and hy-
peractivity in those who take the drug.
-But users report experiences beyond
mood lifts or energy bursts.
A UF chemistry sophomore, who asked
to remain anonymous, took 20 milligrams
of 2C-B last Thursday and Friday nights.
She said as the drug was taking effect,
she felt so paranoid she put on sunglasses
and refused to take them off.
Later, she and four other friends who
were "tripping" played with a fiber optic
light display, moving the lights in sync
with music from a record player.
. "Lights were like a major concern," she
said. "Lights and music were changing our
moods a lot."
She and her friends stood in the mid-
dle of a roundabout in north Gainesville
and watched the lights on cars circle by.
As she was "coming down," she float-
ed in the deep end of a swimming pool.
"It just felt really nice to be sus-
pended," she said. "It just seemed really
free."
She also reported nausea and head-
aches that stayed with her during the
experience.
"I felt I could localize stresses in my life
to a certain cloud that was in my head,"
she said.
This manifestation of her mental
troubles may reflect the therapeutic quali-
ties championed by the drugs' inventor,
Alexander Shulgin.
Shulgin has advocated exploratory
use of drugs, a policy embraced by many
avid users who try new chemicals as they
surface.
Doering said Shulgin, who also synthe-
sized ecstasy and many other psychoactive
drugs, "probably has taken more drugs ex-
perimentally than any other human being
in the history of mankind."
"He is a brilliant chemist who sort of
went over to the dark side," Doering said.

sexuality a goal

Free tech seminar helps students fight identity fraud
* PERSONAL-INFORMATION THEFT
THE FASTEST-GROWING U.S. CRIME.
By RACHEL LEWINTER
Alligator Contributing Writer
It sent Donald Trump Dumpster diving in
a recent commercial, but the average student
can find out how to prevent having to do the
same today at UF's Information Technology
Security Awareness Day.
Beginning at 8:30 a.m. in the Reitz Union
Auditorium and Room 287, the all-day event
is hosted by the UF Information Technology
Security Team and free to the public.
Trump's reaction to losing his credit card
is not surprising, considering identity theft is
the fastest-growing crime in America. Identity
thieves stole the information of 27.3 million
Americans in the last five years, according to
the Federal Trade Commission Web site.
Words like skimming, spoofing, shoulder
surfing and phishing may sound like a foreign
language, but they are all schemes to obtain
personal information to steal money.
Hackers create programs to steal personal
information from wireless Internet users, use
fake e-mails from companies asking for per-
sonal information and disguise links that are
viruses -just a few of the ways by which they
commit fraud.
Anyone with a computer is at risk, said
Kathy Bergsma, information security manager
for UF.
"Attacks are quite frequent," Bergsma said,
"so unless you know what you're doing, you
can become a victim very easily."
"People trust e-mail and probably
should not."
Kathy Bergsma
information security manager for UF
Not helping the situation are laws that
have not caught up with the technology, she
said.
New and harmful viruses are created daily,
said Barry Haimo, a former UF student and
computer and information science major. One
of the most important things to remember is
never to click on links in e-mails, he said, but
go directly to that company's Web site.
Spammers, also called phishers, send out
thousands of fake e-mails using common
banks or services like PayPal and eBay to lure
people to fake sites that look like that of the
organization, Bergsma said.
"E-mails are easily forged," she said. "People
trust e-mail and probably should not."
Bergsma suggested that computer us-
ers make sure a Web site is secure before
entering personal information, create
strong passwords, update their machines
and use anti-virus protection, which is
free to .all UP students and faculty at
www.software.ufl.edu.

Football coach's wife shuns box seat for Section 9
MEYER, from page 1
band Urban at 6 a.m. and out the
door by 7:15, spending most days
as what she calls a "single parent"
with their three kids: Nicki, 15,
Gigi, 12, and 6-year-old Nate.
"From the last week of July un-
til the first week of February, I'm a
single parent," Meyer said. "I can't
really ask him to help."
But after 19 years of Urban
working in football, his wife and
kids have accepted the lifestyle
and wouldn't wish another career
upon him if they could.
"He could have any other job
where he works as much, but it
wouldn't be as much fun," she
said.
She begins the day like other
moms, driving the carpool she
shares with another mom in their
northwest Gainesville neighbor-
hood.
A few days a week she works
with committees and charities in
Gainesville, attending meetings
and participating in fundraisers.
Nights at the Meyer home tend
to be more hectic. Every Meyer kid
plays a sport, and they are all very
competitive, Meyer said.
"I think we force it on them,"
she said.
Nicki and Gigi play volleyball,
and Nate plays baseball.
Meyer said her husband tries
his best to be at his kids' games,
even though he doesn't get home
most nights until 11:30.
"If he absolutely can, he'll leave
work to see 30 minutes of a game,"
she said.
While Urban is -known for his
discipline and strict nature with
his players, Shelley says she han-
dles the discipline of their kids.
"I am (strict) because I'm the
one that's here," she said.
The family spends nearly every
dinner without their dad.
'That (family dinner) is a con-
cept that went away, I don't know
how many years ago," she said. -
Thursdays they go with the
other coaches' families to watch
Gator football practice. Then, they
join the entire team coaches,
players and families to eat.
"That's our family dinner,"
Meyer said.
Shelly and Urban have been
married for 16 years. Both attended
the University of Cincinnati. The
two met at the Sigma Chi house,
during his fraternity's Derby Days
philanthropy event.
Meyer asked her out, and she
turned him down.
"I had a boyfriend back home,"
she said.
They ran into each other three
weeks later in May of '84, and
Meyer asked her out again. This
time, she said yes.
As her love of Urban grew, so
did her newfound relationship
with football.
"Before I met Urban I didn't
pay attention (to football) at all,"
she said. -
She now attends every home
and away football game her
husband coaches. She shows up
nearly three hours before every
home game to start tailgating.
Meyer refuses to sit in the box
seats offered to her and much
prefers sitting with Gator fans in
section 9.
She flies with the team to away
games and lets her daughters at-
tend one away game each season.
Gigi attended the Alabama
game when the Gators lost, and it
was devastating, Meyer said.
She said her husband's mood
after a loss is especially hard on
their kids.
"I don't even know how to
describe it. Urban is so sad,"
Meyer said. "He tosses and turns
all night. You see it (his mood)
lift a little each day. It takes until
Wednesday to get him talking
right again."
After one loss, Meyer said Nicki
was crying because she knew how
sad her dad would be.
The family takes the public
criticism and humiliation the hard-
est, and Meyer said she still hasn't
learned to brush it off.
"I hope to gosh there is not go-
ing to be a time where I'm going
to have to hear that stuff in the
Swamp," Meyer said. "You can't
not take it personally. We're hu-
man beings. We're not robots."
"When you lose a game and
stuff comes down on you is when
you sometimes wish your husband
was in another profession."

New club CARES
* PHILANTHROPIC GROUP
HAS SPORTS THEME.
By JENNA MARINA
Alligator Contributing Writer
When UF'junior Chris Sosa
decided to start a philanthropic
student organization at UF, he
wanted it to be unique.
"All of the organizations are
so cut and dry," he said. "We de-
cided 'Let's make things inter-
esting. Let's throw in sports.'"
College Students for Cancer
Awareness and Raising
Emotions Through Sports is
a UF student organization
in which members volunteer
throughout the Gainesville
community, raising money for
cancer research, particularly for
pediatrics.
As one of its volunteer proj-
ects, CARES is working with
the Shands' Pediatric Specialty
Clinic to organize several events
for cancer-afflicted children,
such as a field day at Norman
Field and bowling at the Reitz
Union later this semester.
The idea is to use sports as a
symbol for challenge, determi-
nation, unity and hope.
"The reason we have these
events is just to take their minds
off of their sicknesses," Sosa
said. "We're trying to make a
difference in their lives."
The group also wants to take
the children to Gators sporting
events.
In addition to their volunteer
work, CARES members plan to
raise $7,000 for groups like the
Climb for Cancer Foundation,
which funds cancer-treatment
research and gives children
with cancer an opportunity to
attend summer camp for two
weeks.
A CARES member, third-
year engineering student Matt
Feldman who is also a cancer
survivor, is planning to climb
a mountain next summer in an
effort to raise money for the
Climb for Cancer Foundation.
Feldman was diagnosed with
testicular cancer Oct. 11, 2002.
He -underwent four cycles of
chemotherapy in Tampa from
December 2002 to February
2003.
If CARES .can raise the
required funds for the trip,
Feldman will attempt to climb
Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania,
Africa, which- has a peak of
19,340 feet. He plans to scale
every inch of it.
"The whole idea of climbing
the mountain is a symbol of
perseverance," Feldman said.
"I would rather climb to the top
just because that's how I am."

Ryan Nelson, came up with the
idea this summer.
"Someone made the joke of,
'You'd have to pay me to be on
the Facebook,'" Nelson said.
Because students are so famil-
iar with Facebook, Nelson said
he thought it was a great way
to reach out to students to raise
money.
"It really speaks to the current
population of college students,"
he said.
One of the problems with
philanthropy on campus is. not
raising money but making it
clear where the money is going,
he said.
Phi Sigma Kappa usu-
ally raises money for the Special
Olympics, but this time the orga-
nization is local.
"I've been amazed at
the outpouring of the
community."
Ryan Nelson
Phi Sigma Kappa president
Phi Sigma Kappa will table on
Turlington Plaza today.
Donation forms can be picked
up there from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. or
downloaded from the fraternity's
Web site, http://phisigflorida.com.
A majority of Phi Sigma Kappa
members have already donated
money toward the event, Nelson
said.
"I've been amazed at the out-
pouring of the community," he
said.
Nelson began work on the
idea for today's event in July.
He has been promoting
it through the media, soror-
ity houses, student organizations
and UF listservs.
"It's always difficult to get a
college student to a baseball game
or fundraiser or a line dance," he
said. "And it's so much easier
for them to show. they care and
benefit a charity in the comfort of
their own home."

UF FOOTBALL
Gators seeing Green
By FARZAD SAFI
Alligator Staff Writer
fsafi@alligator.org
With the memory of Alabama's
Tyrone Prothro burning the Gators' sec-
ondary still fresh in his mind, UF coach
Urban Meyer realizes the secondary is
in for another stiff challenge against
Louisiana State senior receiver Skyler
Green.
"LSU's receivers are big, fast
and extremely physical."
Jarvis Herring
UF safety
Stopping Green and the rest of LSU's
talented receiving corps might be UF's
only hope for a crucial victory.
"The key to this game will be con-
taining [Skyler Green]," Meyer said.
"He's a game-changer and looks a lot
like Tyrone Prothro. We simply have
got to get him on the ground."
Standing just 5-foot-10 and weighing
185 pounds, Green may not be the big-
gest receiver, but that doesn't mean he's
not extremely dangerous with the ball
in his hands.
The Tigers' most experienced receiv-
er will not only challenge the Gators'
secondary, but also UF's front seven
and special teams unit.
In an already accomplished career,
Green has scored nine receiving touch-
downs, three more scores on punt re-
turns and a rushing touchdown.
"He's really a dynamic player,".
Meyer said. "When you watch film of
the great playmakers, there are three
guys around him, but he still gets
through.
"I think him and Prothro of Alabama
are two as good as I have seen."
If Prothro's performance is any in-
dication, Green could have a big day.
Prothro shredded the Gators for five
catches, 134 yards and two touchdowns
in Tuscaloosa.
Even typically outspoken safety
Jarvis Herring had compliments for
Green.
"Their offense is explosive this
year because Green is finally healthy,"
Herring said. "He's a slasher who can
do anything with the ball."
Due to the scheme, UF's blitzing
style requires that cornerbacks Dee
Webb and Vemell Brown cover receiv-
ers one-on-one in most packages.
In five wins this season, the Gators
have allowed just 142 passing yards per
game. But in their one loss, they gave
up 286 yards in the air.
SEE LSU, PAGE 19

Tim Casey/ Alligator Staff
UF's Jarvis Herring and the rest of the Gators' secondary couldn't stop Alabama's passing
game two weeks ago. LSU's receiving corps might be even more dangerous.
Please Urban, no Moore; Manson can save UF's struggling backfield
After days and days of toiling, testing
and tinkering in the alligatorSports
1 football laboratory, I've made a break-
through in the search for UF's running game.
The $1 billion answer: Give Markus
Manson the football over and over and over
again.
One only need examine the Gators' sec-
ond possession against Mississippi State in
order to recognize the absurdity of UF's run-
ning back depth- chart.
On first down, starting back Kestahn
Moore takes an option pitch for 1 .yard.
Moore follows up with a 2-yard run on sec-
ond down.
A Chris Leak-to-Chad Jackson connection
saves the Gators' first scoring drive. Manson
then takes a handoff for 11 yards.
Three plays later, Moore rumbles and
fumbles ahead for a gain of 6.
Beginning to notice a pattern here?
Apparently, it's Moore for less in the UF
rushing game.
Perhaps the guy has some incriminating
documents concerning Meyer?
MLB
Angels 3
White Sox 2
NHL
Flyers 2
Maple Leafs 4.
Fraudulent tax records, nude photo-
graphs, kinky videotapes, recorded telephone
conversations with mafia crime bosses?-
At least those would be rational explana-
tions as to why he remains so hell-bent on
Moore.
Could it be that Mr. Egalitarian has
learned how to play favorites?-
Besides his successful track record, it was
Meyer's insistence that every position was up
for grabs that enabled him to wean the Gators
off pushover I mean players' coach Ron
Zook with such ease:
Benchwarmers and All-Americans then
coexisted on the same plane of competition.
Like some benevolent dictator, Meyer
blurred the lines between pigskin proletariat
and bourgeoisie.
A player's participation on Saturday
hinged on his practice performances during
the week.
And no position illustrated Meyer's policy
more than running back.
After much ado about junior Skyler
Thornton and Manson, Meyer tapped Moore

"k a freshman experienc-

App-etite Since then, Wynn
for Receptions has amassed the most
bapp@alligator.org carries, but Moore,
a Meyer recruit, has
questionably remained in the mix ahead of
Manson, a back that teammates raved about,
as he redshirted last season.
Meyer's reasoning: Manson fumbles too
much in practice.
But there are plenty of playmakers who,
for some mysterious reason, just don't per-
form well in practice.
The Gators had a guy like that once.
Perhaps Meyer has heard of him, or at least
seen his jersey plastered on the interior of the
Swamp.
His name is Danny Wuerffel.
Steve Spurrier often would dog the

Heisman winner after practices. But no
matter how bad he. tanked Monday through
Friday, Wuerffel was money when it mat-
tered.
And if Meyer wants to talk about butter-
fingers, his boy put the ball on the turf twice
in the first half against the Bulldogs.
After averaging 10.3 yards per carry dur-
ing the first half, Manson appeared to be ex-
actly the kind of explosive, hard-hitting back
Meyer called for after UF's embarrassment in
Tuscaloosa.
He can hit holes faster than any other UF
tailback a must, considering the Gators'
struggling offensive line.
One can't help-but imagine the difference
Manson would've made in the Alabama
game if only-he'd carried the ball more than
once. Perhaps it would've forced the Tide to
put more than three in the box.
Meyer cannot afford to waiver on the
running back situation any longer, not with
impending season-breakers against LSU and
Georgia.
It's not exactly rocket science or anything.

* FORMER GATORS STARS
WILL RETURN TO O-DOME.
By BRYAN JONES
Alligator Writer
Tonight will be a homecoming
of sorts for former UF volleyball
stars Steffi Legall and Nicole
McCray, and the Gators will at-
tempt to make their return as
unpleasant as possible.
Legall, Georgia's head coach,
and McCray, a Bulldog assistant
coach, both played for the Gators
under coach Mary Wise's tenure
at UF a tenure that includes 14
straight Southeastern Conference
titles and perennial powerhouse
status.
When the Gators (16-1, 6-0
SEC) square off against Georgia
(7-8, 2-3 SEC) tonight, it will mark
the first time Legall and McCray
will visit the O'Connell Center in
'their current coaching positions.
While Legall and McCray
are certainly familiar with UF's
system, the talent on the court is
what really matters, Wise said.
McCray will not only be facing
her former coach in the match, but
also her younger sister, Amber
McCray, who is UF's starting op-
posite hitter.
Amber McCray said she is
proud of Nicole and considers the
match as another opportunity to
see her sister.
"We've talked about their
scouting, and she always tells me
how weird it is when she has to
do video about me and some of
the things against me," McCray
said. "But she doesn't tell me too
much details about what they are
going to do. We keep it profes-
sional."
"We are going to respect
our opponent a lot more
than we did when we played
Georgia before."
Kisya Killingsworth
UF volleyball player
While the Gators defeated
Georgia 3-0 (30-26, 30-28, 30-22)
in Athens earlier this season, it
was perhaps the most difficult
SEC match UF has played this
season. The Gators spent much
of the match fighting from be-
hind, narrowly winning the first
two games before overpowering
Georgia in the third game. If not
for a breakout performance from
sophomore middle blocker Kari
Klinkenborg, the match could
have gotten a little too interesting
for UF's taste.
While Klinkenborg's 13 kills
and five blocks helped to coun-
ter Georgia's star middle blocker
Alexandra Oquendo, the Gators
will likely look to sophomore
Kisya Killingsworth to try to
neutralize Oquendo this time
around.
Killingsworth's 27 kills and
10 blocks over the course of her
last two matches earned her SEC
Player of the Week honors.
"We are going to respect our
opponent a lot more than we did
when we played Georgia before,"
Killingsworth said. "So coming
into the second match we are go-
ing to look at it saying 'OK, well
they did this, this and that. We
need to stop them from doing
this, this and that.'"
The last time UF faced Georgia
in Gainesville, the Bulldogs
nearly knocked the Gators out of
the SEC Tournament, as UF barely
defeated Georgia in a five-game
thriller.
This season, however, UF is
undefeated at home and has yet
to lose a game at the O'Connell
Center.
While Georgia does not ap-
pear to be intimidated by UF,
the Gators have won 38 straight
matches against the Bulldogs.
Wise said Georgia is only going
to improve as the year progresses,
and she expects them to challenge
for an NCAA Tournament bid.
"When we played them, Julia
Petruschke, their senior outside
hitter, we had a hard time defend-
ing her. And the last time they
played in the O'Connell Center,
she and Alexandra Oquendo were
nothing short of outstanding,"
Wise said
"I'd have to think [the
Bulldogs] like coming to the 0-
Dome."

Meyer preps secondary for tough competition from Tigers' receiving corps-
LSU, from page 17
If UF's only goal was stopping
Green, Meyer would not be as
concerned, but any one of LSU's
receivers could prove deadly on
Saturday.
Junior Dwayne Bowe plays
the Z position for the Tigers. His
6-foot-3, 217-pound stature makes
him a tough matchup.
"LSU's receivers are big, fast
and extremely physical," Herring
said. "We'll be battling all night,
that's for sure."
Bowe's three touchdowns cur-
rently lead the Tigers.
In addition, LSU boasts the two
top-rated receivers from the 2004
high school class in sophomores
Early Doucet (6-foot, 206 pounds)
and Xavier Carter (6-foot-3, 198
pounds).
Carter will probably be the fast-
est player UF faces all year, clock-
ing in at 4.35 in the 40-\ard dash
The former Palm Bay standout,
who once considered attending
UF, was high school teammates .
with- current -Gators' defensive
end Joe Cohen and -afety Reggie
Nelson.
LSU quarterback JaMarcus'
Russell still has another option in
skilled junior Craig Davis, whom
Russell has been looking to in the
slot.
"This is the most talented
group of receivers I've ever ben
around LSU wide receives
coach Todd Monken said. "These
guys have constantly been hearing
about how good they are."

Nwt -ffEill -swt e rsit VOLUME 99 ISSUE 35 the independent florida yof Florida Published by Campus Communications, Inc. of Gainesville, Florida We Inform. You Decide. RecyclI WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 12, 2005 .By JUSTIN RICHARDS Alligator Writer jrichards@aIIigator.org The pills were new, cheap and illegal. He had to try them. Little did he know he'd want to make his first hit the last one he ever took. "I was born into a new world, and it was slightly scary," he wrote in his online journal Tuesday. "I am attempting to give up drugs for a while. I need to take time to appreciate the world that I am living in constantly, without effects of outside substances." The student, who asked to remain anonymous, is one of a number at UF who have tried psychoactive drugs of the "2C" family, which includes 2C-B and 2C-I. The chemicals have become popular in last few years, partially due StLden to their availability on the Internet. The drugs were first created in the 1980s as a legal alternative to Ecstasy but have since been made illegal. Those that were not banned can be prosecuted via a provision in drug laws that allows similar drugs to yield equal punishment. Some users report a sensory experience -vibrant lights, enhanced touch -with 2C-B and a more cognitive experience with 2C-I. However, the drug is not well-studied. UF pharmacy professor Paul Doering illustrated the drug's mystery by drawing a big red question mark on his whiteboard. "The side of me that's scared of the dark keeps me from doing these drugs," Doering said. The drug has the same chemical skeleton as amphetamine, Ecstasy and the human hormone adrenaline. Because of its stimulative quality, SEE DRUG, PAGE 8 PSU holds awareness event By DIANA MAZZELLA out as a slacker and was skipping Alligator Writer class at the moment, he said. dmazzella@alligator.org He said he thought the event was to support the LGBT commuGay, lesbian, bisexual and nity and to let them know there transgender students came out are people who will not judge Tuesday.

Not just any tailgate party, but the tailgate party for the families of Gator football coaches under the stadium where her husband will lead the Gator football team in the Homecoming game against Mississippi State. Before arriving, Meyer went on her gameday run and made her wardrobe decision -one based on superstition. The Gators' loss against Alabama the previous week led Meyer to change her typical blue and orange tie-dye shorts to, a khaki pair. She keeps the same outfit on when the Gators win. "These shorts are 4-1," she said. A win today could mean possibly a little more time with her husband during the week. A loss could mean her kids in tears due to their father's sadness. These are all parts of being Mrs. Coach Meyer, wife of Gainesville's biggest celebrity. The Gators won, but life in the Meyer household is hardly calm. To say her life is busy would be an understatement. A lot is going on the next day, but Shelley Meyer said Sunday is easy compared with most days. Days when she is up with husSEE MEYER, PAGE 9

WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 12, 2005 0 ALLIGATOR, 3 UF libraries promote chatting By ELIZABETH HILLAKER Alligator Contributing Writer Students can chat with UF librarians in their underwear. Online, that is. Librarians field questions and give research advice online from various UF libraries. It was a natural way to help students and faculty by increasing the libraries' reference capabilities, said associate university librarian Jana Ronan in an instant-messaging interview. The program started about three weeks ago, and the libraries are just starting to promote it, she said. The software did not cost the library system any money to install, and the librarians work instant-messaging shifts into their schedules, Ronan said. Instant messaging with volunteer librarians will be available on all of the public computers by the end of the tenn, she said. Librarians are available to chat online during regular library hours Monday through Thursday 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. and Friday 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. "This is an easy way to get answers without having to tromp over here," said Valerie Davis, the outreach librarian for Agricultural Sciences Library system. "This is an easy way to get answers without having to tromp over here." Valerie Davis outreach librarian "I think if people knew about it, it would be a nice resource," said Ladaun Jackson, a linguistics major. "Sometimes when I'm navigating the library's Web site, I find it difficult, and it would be so nice to be able to speak with a real live person and not have to walk down to the library." Students need to download the university's Jabber Messaging program. It can be used with Windows, Mac or LINUX operating systems. Students need a GatorLink ID and password to access the service. It is easy to install and convenient, said Laurie Brennan, the computer-support specialist for Marston Science Library. If students follow the instructions on the libraries' Web site at www.uflib.ufl.edu under the "Ask a Librarian" section, it should take about two minutes to download, she said. Questions about which library a book is in, finding literature on in-depth research projects and general UF questions are common, she said. Librarians help point students in the right direction to find and use the appropriate resources, while they are researching online, she said. Instructions for downloading the program are available at www.uflib.ufl.edu/hss/ ref/rx/imew.pdf or at the UF Computer Help Desk in Computer Science & Engineering Building Room 214. Senate on the move By DAVID COHEN Alligator Writer dcohen@alligator.org Student Senate could host its next meeting at a basketball court. Or a library. Or a classroom lab. .Newly elected Senate President John Boyles presented a few recommendations for the new term Tuesday night, including a proposition to change the Senate's meeting locations a few times each term. Normally, Senate meets every Tuesday in the Reitz Union Room 282. He discussed hopping around campus to sites like the McKnight Brain Institute, Library West and a basketball practice facility. Sen. Pedro Morales said he liked the idea. He said being geographically closer to campus organizations would be beneficial. He would also like a cooler room. "It gets really hot in there, especially in the back," he said. Boyles said he wants to have entertaining events at the weekly meetings, including a speech by UF men's basketball coach Billy Donovan and raffling off memorabilia to those present. "The hope is that Senate will be reaching out Student to the students governEent in a different way," he said. Another recommendation of Boyles' was to form a committee to find out how many students attend UF satellite campuses and how much money they contribute to UP's main campus budget. UF's nine satellite campuses have not received tuition-funded Activity & Service Fee benefits, except for a few instances. These students pay the same fees as main-campus UF students.

4, ALLIGATOR U WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 12, 2005 Law panelists Uffer Party Patrol, gameday advice N STUDENTS QUESTION UNIVERSITY, POLICE OFFICIALS. By CASSIDY MILLS Alligator Contributing Writer Lately, Gainesville residents have been urinating outdoors more than usual. That and other legal concerns were presented at the UF-sponsored Laws Over Lunch on Monday Hosted by Campus Diplomats, the event offered students an opportunity to speak with a panel of experts over free pizza on the Reitz Union Colonnade. The lunch gave students insight into their rights when dealing with police, such as what to do when an officer enters a party. Underage drinking and alcohol laws were popular subjects with both students and panelists, who represented Student Judicial Affairs, Student Legal Services, the Office of the Ombudsman and University Police. When asked about alcohol policies at football games, Jyrece McClendon, a panelist and graduate assistant in Student Judicial Affairs, said students lose their season tickets if they are found with alcohol in Ben Hill Griffin Stadium. UPD Capt. Jeff Holcomb warned students that they could also be denied admission to Gators games if they show up drunk. But when concerned students pressed Holcomb on the subject, he said, "If you don't smell alcohol on 20,000 of the 90,000 fans present, I'm impressed." When students asked about Party Patrol, Daintry Cleary, director of Student Legal Services, said to keep guests inside the apartment or house and out of the parking lot and surrounding areas. If a police officer knocks at the door during a party, Cleary said the best policy is to step outside and close the door to speak with him or her. As long as the police officer is not invited inside the home, he or she has no right to enter, she said. Holcomb said students should be aware of offenses like public urination, which seem trivial but are punishable by arrest. Cleary said DUIs are offenses that create some of the biggest problems for students, including lost jobs and internship opportunities as well as substantial legal fees. "If you get a DUI, it will be on your record for the rest of your life," Cleary said. "It cannot be expunged." NR-ML pushes reform By LYNDSEY BECHTEL Alligator Contributing Writer With a serious face, Kris Krane clenched his notes Monday night and said, "The reality is that everybody smokes pot." A crowd of 150 people stared back awkwardly, not knowing how to react. "Well, not everybody -but every age, every race, every class and every walk of life smokes pot," said Krane, associate director of the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws. "If people weren't so afraid to talk about it, we could get a lot more done." Hosted by NORML UF, Krane spoke about local political efforts to reform marijuana laws in the Computer Science & Engineering Building, citing the efforts of FSU's chapter of NORML for an initiative de-prioritizing marijuana enforcement. With the help of UP, UCF and FAU NORML chapters, de-prioritization can be placed on the Florida ballot, he said. "Hf you're a guy with long hair, pull it back, wear a suit and talk to your state legislator," he said. "If the NORML chapters from all over Florida take two trips per semester to go to Tallahassee, we can get some serious stuff done." The cities of Detroit and Columbia, Mo., have already passed similar marijuana de-prioritization laws due to efforts from local NORML chapters. "The reality is that everybody smokes pot." Kris Krane associate director, National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws Krane said 82 million Americans have smoked marijuana at least once. He explained that NORML's goal is to legalize the safe and responsible use of marijuana by adults. He graduated from American University and started working with NORML in Washington, D.C., to influence political opinion about medicinal marijuana and decriminalization. Jaylen McGrew, vice president of NORML OF, helped book Krane and other speakers scheduled for the Fall. "Our main goal on campus is to educate," McGrew said. "[Krane] understood that we're not here to get high. We have an agenda."

WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 12, 2005 8 ALLIGATOR, 5Maui Teriyaki closed bref y for health concerns M RESTAURANT REOPENED SOON AFTER A SECOND INSPECTION. By JESSICA RIFFEL Alligator Writer jriffel@alligator.org A health inspector shut down Maui Teriyaki on Monday after he found bugs in the restaurant, a Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation official said. "The inspector observed at least two dozen live roaches," said Geoff Luebkemarn, the director for the department's Division of Hotels and Restaurants. The Gator Plaza restaurant passed a second inspection Tuesday afternoon and was reopened. "It's routine to-have bug problems in restaurants," Maui Teriyaki owner Steve Marzke said. "It comes with the business. It's just not something you talk about. This is Florida -there are bugs." Marzke has received warnings from inspectors in the past, as have many other restaurants in Gainesville, but this time the inspector shut down the restaurant. "This was an extreme reaction of one particular inspector," Marzke said. "I'm 'a little baffled, but it just depends on which inspector you get. They're all doing their job. This one just took it to the extreme." Marzke thought the inspector was tough but ultimately fair. "If we have a problem, we want to get it taken care of," Marzke said. "We are doing everything we can. Their goal is to protect the public, and we like that. We don't want anybody to get sick at our Around .restaurants." ________ The health inspection came after the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation received an anonymous tip. Marzke said the tip could have come from a fired employee, a developer for University Corners or even a customer with a grudge. "You just never know who it was," he said. Marzke added that relations between him and University Corners developers, against whom he threatened a lawsuit last month, have improved recently. After being shut down Monday, Marzke's wife, Lolda, cleaned the restaurant all night, and they had pest control come in Monday night and Tuesday morning. "It's been solved," Marzke said. "We took care of it within 24 hours, and I can guarantee there aren't any damn bugs in here now. Not one or they wouldn't have let us open." Marzke has Florida Pest Control debug Maui Teriyaki once every two weeks. "It better stay [bug free], or we'll change pest-control companies," he said.

6, ALLIGATOR E WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 12, 2005 Justice deficit SG Elections Commission rejects valid complaints e're truly sick of constantly exposing all the illegal and immoral activities of Student Government. The lies and incompetence are unbelievably bla tant; yet even when something is proven to be wrong, no one is ever held accountable. It's a disgrace to this university and makes students apathetic to their government and the overseeing administration. Part of this problem is accountability, and that all begins with the SG Elections Commission. Violation after violation occurs, and the commissioners toss it aside because of technicalities that they read into the codes. Yes, we've read the codes, and these commissioners are completely out of line. For instance, the election codes clearly state that lists of polling places must be posted and sent to campus newspapers no later than the Wednesday before an election. We didn't get anything until at least Thursday afternoon. But when Alligator University Editor Bridget Carey filed a complaint about the statute, it was rejected for "lack of standing" -suspiciously just three minutes after the deadline to submit complaints. Only students can file complaints, and because Carey's filing featured evidence provided by the Alligator, the commission claimed she was an agent of the newspaper. The same thing happened with another open-and-shut complaint when The Gator Party was found not guilty of posting campaign banners on poles in the Plaza of the Americas sponsored with student money. But the commissioners didn't decide. Instead, they "discovered" a technicality on the complaint forms and rejected it. Dismissed and never heard again because the Impact Party got a number wrong? When an election comes down to crossing the "t" and dotting the "i," we have to wonder how fair it is. This is not a commission out for justice; this is a commission suspiciously dedicated to the god of technicalities. Herein lies the main obstruction with the pursuit of SG justice: The coirunission has no accountability for its actions. It begins with how the board is chosen. Two are nominated by the Student Body president, two by the Senate president and two by the chief justice of the SG Supreme Court. This year, the chief justice is Tobi Butensky. During her reign, the court rejected a petition to put online voting on the Spring ballot. Butensky claimed the document was "ambiguous" in whether it asked for an initiative or a referendum. The petition mentioned the word "initiative" four times and never even referred to a referendum. And Student Body President Joe Goldberg has committed a slew of acts we think violate SG statutes and Florida law. It's too bad none of them have been brought up in curt. Such people should not be choosing who upholds the election statutes. But our favorite part of the SG election codes is the assertion that any law proposed by the Elections Commission must be approved by the Student Senate to ensure a "separation of power. We're glad the Senate's almost complete control over SG is protected by the election codes in the name of checks and balances. And while this is ostensiblybecause the studentbody should have a say, the commission only has to post any proposed laws in the SG offices. We don'T think this is written for the ease of constituents. Have these guys ever heard of the Internet? In essence, these officials are all cogs in the same machine; they all come to the table with the same partisan goals.

I'll clarify, because -that was clearly a blatant attempt at grabbing your attention with a ridiculously controversial statement. The current legal environment is churning out situations of such complexity as to make clear the need for more knowledgeable legal talent. Cases are arising that present unique challenges and create a new atmosphere that calls for an entirely different approach to jurisprudence. The Tennessee Supreme Court ruled Thursday 4-1 that Cindy Culpepper, who had given birth to triplets conceived with another woman's eggs, has legal rights as a mother. Charles Galiwango, the father of the triplets and Culpepper's boyfriend, had asked two lower courts to grant him exclusive custody of the children, as Culpepper had no genetic relationship with the children. Galiwango and his attorney have not yet decided whether to appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court, according to an article in The Tennessean. Frank E Drowota, the now-retired chief justice of the Tennessee Supreme Court who wrote the majority opinion in the case, tried to explain the new world this case has revealed. "Recent developments in reproductive technology have caused a tectonic shift in the realities which underlie our legal conceptions of parenthood,' Drowota wrote in the opinion. "This technological fragmentation of the procreative process .has engendered a bewildering variety of possibilities which are not easily reconciled with our traditional definitions of 'mother,''father' and 'parent.'" What he said. This brave new world will require lawyers and judges of astonishing intelligence and creativity. And that observation leads us, inevitably, to hard questions about Harriet Miers, President Bush's most recent nominee for the Supreme Court. These are necessary questions, and I have no doubt they'll be asked frequently of Miers. But Miers isn't the greatest issue here. If this brave new world requires new personnel, it also will require new thoughts and philosophies. It will require new approaches beAndrew Bare cause these are new problems. The Bare Truth Hence, the greater issue rai-sed letterscallgator.org by the Tennessee case is the fundamental weakness of what President Bush calls "strict constructionism," or what many in the legal community call a belief in "original intent." Never has it been more clear that a legal philosophy centered on an almost religious devotion to the thoughts and beliefs of our Founding Fathers is inadequate to modern challenges. The Constitution of the United States was completed in 1787. We now live in a world that our ,18th-century heroes could never have imagined. We live in a world of telephones and television, of the Internet and almost instantaneous communication. We live in a world where blacks and women vote and where our armed forces are spread around the world. And we live in a world where mothers can give birth to children to whom they have made no genetic contribution. This is not the time to rely exclusively on the legal wisdom of men who died before the invention of the telegraph. Look to the past, yes, by all means. Learn from it, of course. But ultimately, each new generation must forge its own legal identity, an identity adapted to and cognizant of the complexity of its own peculiar time. The world of American jurisprudence must be shaped by the independent thoughts of men and women like Harriet Miers -not by minds chained to the ideals of the 18th century.

WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 12, 2005 U ALLIGATOR, 7 Guest column Society throws away lives hat is life nowadays but a mere card in the deck that our society so inappropriately dubs power? We deal the war card when we see fit, perhaps throw out some "environmental" legislation -which really doesn't help the environment at all -and of course, throw the life card in the discard pile whenever it hinders our game. Alas, time does not permit me to go on about those things, but I must say that the recent column by Josh Gellers regarding abortion was disgusting, to say the very least. I am not a liberal or a conservative because such terms are arbitrary, but I do know right from wrong. To say that 46 million dead in our country is not a big deal is the grossest disregard for life that I have had the niisfortune to be exposed to. Age is not a factor. A fetus, an infant, a teenager, a middle-aged adult, an elderly person and, yes, even a comatose person, are all living things! This is not a religious point of view; science itself proves that life exists at all of these levels. That is to say, life does, indeed, begin at conception. The callous distortion of pro-life views by the recent article, saying that life begins "when you look a person of the opposite sex squarely in the eyes with romantic intentions" is absurd. Satire or not, it is ridiculous. Anthony M. What is most Piferrer striking about Speaking Out the article is the fact that so many Americans have apparently adopted the view that in our technological and societal might, we have thus bestowed upon ourselves the power to dominate not just the unborn, but the elderly and those who cannot fend for themselves either. Remember Terri Schiavo? These are not just the signs of an age where eugenics will eventually take hold, but of a society so ignorant of living things that it borders on an Orwellian system. If the living thing cannot fend for itself or do any good for the society, many believe the more powerful have the right to terminate its life for the greater productivity of the masses. Whatever happened to our "right to life and liberty" as stated in the Declaration of Independence? The weak are being subjected to the power of the strong and, in many cases, are being stripped of their right to live, period. Terri Schiavo and the 46 million "tiny organisms" can vouch for that. To deny life, under any circumstances, is sheer manipulation, maliciously and falsely puissant and wrong. Wake up America, for it seems Death is knocking on many a door. Anthony M. Piferrer is a history and French sophomore. Letters to the Editor Abortion deprives person of experience In Tuesday's guest column, Josh Gellers poses the question, "Is bringing a child into a life of poverty not a crime in itself?" No one can deny that life is fraught with sadness and suffering. To be human is to be constantly faced with hardships. Every child aborted is preserved from these things. But from what else are they preserved? They will never know what it is to fall in love, to make a new friend, or to hold and nurture children of their own. They will never know what it is to find meaning in their suffering. They will never know what it is to be alive. Like Mr. Gellers, I too see a crime here. I see a crime in depriving another person of the things we all take for granted. Andrew Sheeran 3LW Religion only reinforces existing values In her Tuesday letter, Tara Fox argues that "ideas of goodness, compassion and understanding. .have been put into the very core of our being by an 'intelligent designer." If we follow Tara's argument, the only reason we have these ideals is because they were put there by an "intelligent designer." That means our designer could have just as easily made wrongdoing, indifference and lying part of our core values. If you argue an "intelligent designer" would never make such things part of our values because they result in hurt, then you acknowledge that there are moral values that exist outside of religion. Hence, the only connection between religion and morality is that religion serves to reinforce a set of values that existed prior to a supposed "intelligent designer." Eddie Geller 4LS Man knows what's right from reason Tara Fox wrote Tuesday that reason has led her to believe that moral values have been placed into her by an "intelligent designer." How is she to know what was "put in" to the "core" of her being is, in fact, moral? She is denying the only way man is able to acquire knowledge -reason -and claiming the absence of free will in the deterministic nature of her input morals. Like many, she simply accepts what she "feels" to be morally "good" as right and attributes this "feeling" to a supernatural being before ever rationally analyzing why. Such analysis would lead Tara to retract her statement about "selfishness" and realize that man working for his own rational self-interest, never sacrificing himself to others nor sacrificing others to himself, is the objectively moral way to live.

8, ALLIGATOR E WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 12, 2005 Effects of 2C still unclear; may have harmful long-term effects on body DRUG, from page 1 Doering said an overdose of a 2C drug could cause a stroke or cardiac arrhythmia. The recommended dose is between 10 and 25 milligrams. Doering said 2C drugs stimulate the release of neurotransmitters like serotonin, dopamine and ephedrine, which normally maintain mental balance in the brain. He said tolerance of the drug increases as levels of those chemicals are depleted by 2C use. As with cocaine, higher doses are then required to achieve the same chemical rush. Doering compared repeated release of those neurotransmitters to wringing water from a sponge. After excessive use, the sponge could go dry. Even worse, research on Ecstasy suggests a possibility that the "serotonin factory catches fire and burns out," he said. When the sponge is wrung, though, these chemicals cause euphoria and hyperactivity in those who take the drug. -But users report experiences beyond mood lifts or energy bursts. A UF chemistry sophomore, who asked to remain anonymous, took 20 milligrams of 2C-B last Thursday and Friday nights. She said as the drug was taking effect, she felt so paranoid she put on sunglasses and refused to take them off. Later, she and four other friends who were "tripping" played with a fiber optic light display, moving the lights in sync with music from a record player. "Lights were like a major concern," she said. "Lights and music were changing our moods a lot." She and her friends stood in the middle of a roundabout in north Gainesville and watched the lights on cars circle by. As she was "coming down," she floated in the deep end of a swimming pool. "It just felt really nice to be suspended," she said. "It just seemed really free." She also reported nausea and headaches that stayed with her during the experience. "I felt I could localize stresses in my life to a certain cloud that was in my head," she said. This manifestation of her mental troubles may reflect the therapeutic qualities championed by the drugs' inventor, Alexander Shulgin. Shulgin has advocated exploratory use of drugs, a policy embraced by many avid users who try new chemicals as they surface. Doering said Shulgin, who also synthesized ecstasy and many other psychoactive drugs, "probably has taken more drugs experimentally than any other human being in the history of mankind." "He is a brilliant chemist who sort of went over to the dark side," Doering said. Dialogue on sexuality a goal OUT, from page 1 said. She noted that usually, people don't discuss sexuality of any kilnd. Ardrews said she thought coming out is important because it gives role models to other LGBT people. She gave the example of Gainesville City Commissioner Craig Lowe, the city's first openly gay commissioner. She said he is a role 'model, particularly to college students who want to enter politics. She said the campus feels safe to students but that in the workforce, people can be fired because of their sexual orientation. Cortez and Dean said they built the doorframe using wood from the Pride Student Union Homecoming float, adding that they spent about $8 on hinges and nails to put it together.

WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 12, 2005 E ALLIGATOR, 9 Frue tech seminar helps students fight identity fraud PERSONAL-INFORMATION THEFT THE FASTEST-GROWING U.S. CRIME. By RACHEL LEWINTER Alligator Contributing Writer It sent Donald Tr p pster divin in a recent commercial, but the average student can find out how to prevent having to do the same today at Up's Information Technology Security Awareness Day. Beginning at 8:30 a.m. in the Reitz Union Auditorium and Room 287, the all-day event is hosted by the UF Information Technology Security Team and free to the public. Trump's reaction to losing his credit card is not surprising, considering identity theft is the fastest-growing crime in America. Identity thieves stole the information of 27.3 million Americans in the last five years, according to the Federal Trade Commission Web site. Words like skimming, spoofing, shoulder surfing and phishing may sound like a foreign language, but they are all schemes to obtain personal information to steal money. F-ackers create programs to steal personal information from wireless Internet users, use fake e-mails from companies asking for personal information and disguise links that are viruses -just a few of the ways by which they commit fraud. Anyone with a computer is at risk, said Kathy Bergsma, information security manager for UP. "Attacks are quite frequent," Bergsma said, "1so unless you know what you're doing, you can become a victim very easily." "People trust e-mail and probably should not." Kathy Bergsma information security manager for UF Not helping the situation are laws that have not caught up with the technology, she said. New and harmful viruses are created daily, said Barry Haimo, a former UF student and computer and information science major. One of the most important tlngs to remember is never to click on links in e-mails, he said, but go directly to that company's Web site. Spanuners, also called phishers, send out thousands of fake e-mails using common banks or services like PayPal and eBay to lure people to fake sites that look like that of the organization, Bergsma said. "E-mails are easily forged,'she said. "People trust e-mail and probably should not." Bergsma suggested that computer users make sure a Web site is secure before entering personal information, create strong passwords, update their machines and use anti-virus protection, which is free to all UF students and faculty at www.software.ufl.edu. For additional security tips, visit http:// infosec.ufl.edu. For more information on the Information Technology Security Awareness Day, visit www.itsa.ufl.edu Football coach's wife shuns box seat for Section 9 M E ER, from page 1 band Urban at 6 a.m. and out the door by 7:15, spending most days as what she calls a "single parent" with their three kids: Nicki, 15, Gigi, 12, and 6-year-old Nate. "From the last week of July until the first week of February, I'm a single parent," Meyer said. "I can't really ask him to help." But after 19 years of Urban working in football, his wife and kids have accepted the lifestyle and wouldn't wish another career upon him if they could. "He could have any other job where he works as much, but it wouldn't be as much fun," she said. She begins the day like other moms, driving the carpool she shares with another mom in their northwest Gainesville neighborhood. A few days a week she works with committees and charities in Gainesville, attending meetings and participating in fundraisers. Nights at the Meyer home tend to be more hectic. Every Meyer kid plays a sport, and they are all very competitive, Meyer said. "I think we force it on them," she said. Nicki and Gigi play volleyball, and Nate plays baseball. Meyer said her husband tries his best to be at his kids' games, even though he doesn't get home most nights until 11:30. "If he absolutely can, he'll leave work to see 30 minutes of a game," she said. While Urban is -known for his discipline and strict nature with his players, Shelley says she handles the discipline of their kids. "I am (strict) because I'm the one that's here," she said. The family spends nearly every dinner without their dad. "That (family dinner) is a concept that went away, I don't know how many years ago," she said. Thursday they go with the other coaches' families to watch Gator football practice. Then, they join the entire team -coaches, players and families -to eat. "That's our family dinner," Meyer said. Shelly and Urban have been married for 16 years. Both attended the University of Cincinnati. The two met at the Sigma Chi house, during his fraternity's Derby Days philanthropy event. Meyer asked her out, and she turned him down. "I had a boyfriend back home," she said. They ran into each other three weeks later in May of '84, and Meyer asked her out again. This time, she said yes. As her love of Urban grew, so did her newfound relationship with football. "Before I met Urban I didn't pay attention (to football) at all," she said. She now attends every home and away football game her husband coaches. She shows up nearly three hours before every home game to start tailgating. Meyer refuses to sit in the box seats offered to her and much prefers sitting with Gator fans in section 9. She flies with the team to away games and lets her daughters attend one away game each season. Gigi attended the Alabama game when the Gators lost, and it was devastating, Meyer said. She said her husband's mood after a loss is especially hard on their kids. "I don't even know how to -describe it. Urban is so sad," Meyer said. "He tosses and turns all night. You see it (his mood) lift a little each day. It takes until Wednesday to gethim talking right again." After one loss, Meyer said Nicki was crying because she knew how sad her dad would be. The family takes the public criticism and humiliation the hardest, and Meyer said she still hasn't learned to brush it off. "I hope to gosh there is not going to be a time where I'm going to have to hear that stuff in the Swamp," Meyer said. "You can't not take it personally. We're human beings. We're not robots." "When you lose a game and stuff comes down on you is when you sometimes wish your husband was inanother profession." seeni ng ~~~ 5vscsa n9 Wednesday, October 12, 2005 2:30 a.m. -4:30 p.m. 5' K,-" 0-m -Sponsored by: University of Florida Student Health Care Center/Student Mental Health Services Jennifer Harnish / Alligator Zeta Tau Alpha alumna Shelley Meyer talks to current members of the sorority about her experiences as a sister Monday.

10, ALLIGATOR K WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 12, 2005 New club CARES PHILANTHROPIC GROUP HAS SPORTS THEME. By JENNA MARINA Alligator Contributing Writer When UF junior Chris Sosa decided to start a philanthropic student organization at UF, he wanted it to be unique. "All of the organizations are so cut and dry," he said. "We decided 'Let's make things interesting. Let's throw in sports."' College Students for Cancer Awareness and Raising Emotions Through Sports is a UF student organization in which members volunteer throughout the Gainesville community, raising money for cancer research, particularly for pediatrics. As one of its volunteer projects, CARES is working with the Shands' Pediatric Specialty Clinic to organize several events for cancer-afflicted children, such as a field day at Norman Field and bowling at the Reitz Union later this semester. The idea is to use sports as a symbol for challenge, determination, unity and hope. "The reason we have these events is just to take their minds off of their sicknesses," Sosa said. "We're trying to make a By DANIELLE TORRENT Alligator Contributing Writer Today, students can help fight domestic violence through their computers. Prom 12:01 am. until midnight tonight, making Peaceful Paths a friend on theFacebook.com will benefit the local domestic-abuse shelter. Sponsors have pledged to donate money for every friend the account acquires during the day. UF's Phi Sigma Kappa Fraternity is hosting the fundraiser, called Face the Hate. The fraternity's president, Ryan Nelson, came up with the idea this summer. "Someone made the joke of, 'You'd have to pay me to be on the Facebook,"' Nelson said. Because students are so familiar with Facebook, Nelson said he thought it was a great way to reach out to students to raise money. "It really speaks to the current population of college students," he said. One of the problems with philanthropy on campus is not raising money but making it clear where the money is going, he said. Phi Sigma Kappa usudifference in their lives." The group also wants to take the children to Gators sporting events. In addition to their volunteer work, CARES members plan to raise $7,000 for groups like the Climb for Cancer Foundation, which funds cancer-treatment research and gives children with cancer an opportunity to attend summer camp for two weeks. A CARES member, thirdyear engineering student Matt Feldman who is also a cancer survivor, is planning to climb a mountain next summer in an effort to raise money for the Climb for Cancer Foundation. Feldman was diagnosed with testicular cancer Oct. 11, 2002. He -underwent four cycles of chemotherapy in Tampa from December 2002 to February 2003. If CARES can raise the required funds for the trip, Feldman will attempt to climb Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania, Africa, whichhas a peak of 19,340 feet. He plans to scale every inch of it. "The whole idea of climbing the mountain is a symbol of perseverance," Feldman said. "I would rather climb to the top just because that's how I am." ally raises money for the Special Olympics, but this time the organization is local. "I've been amazed at the outpouring of the community." Ryan Nelson Phi Sigma Kappa president Phi Sigma Kappa will table on Turlington Plaza today. Donation forms can be picked up there from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. or downloaded from the fraternity's Web site, http://phisigflorida.com. A majority of Phi Sigma Kappa members have already donated money toward the event, Nelson said. "I've been amazed at the outpouring of the community," he said. Nelson began work on the idea for today's event in July. He has been promoting it through the media, sorority houses, student organizations and UF listservs. "It's always difficult to get a college student to a baseball game or fundraiser or a line dance," he said. "And it's so much easier for them to show they care and benefit a charity in the comfort of their own home."

WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 12 2005 GaPtors se--g Green i~ ALLIGATOR www.alligatorSports.org By FARZAD S Alligator Staff W fsafi@alligator.o With the memory Tyrone Prothro burning t ondary still fresh in his m Urban Meyer realizes th in for another stiff cha Louisiana State senior r Green. "LSU's receivers a Iand extremely p AFI writer rg and special teams unit. In an already accomplished career, Green has scored nine receiving touchdowns, three more scores on punt ieof Alabama's turns and a rushing touchdown. he Gators' sec"He's really a dynamic player," aind, UF coach Meyer said. "When you watch film of e secondary is the great playmakers, there are three llenge against guys around him, but he still gets eceiver Skyler through. "I think him and Prothro of Alabama re big, fast are two as good as I have seen." If Prothro's performance is any inhysical." dication, Green could have a big day. Jarvis Herring Prothro shredded the Gators for five UF safety catches, 134 yards and two touchdowns in Tuscaloosa. Stopping Green and the rest of LSU's talented receiving corps might be UF's only hope for a crucial victory. "The key to this game will be containing [Skyler Green]," Meyer said. "He's a game-changer and looks a lot like Tyrone Prothro. We simply have got to get him on the ground." Standing just 5-foot-10 and weighing 185 pounds, Green may not be the biggest receiver, but that doesn't mean he's not extremely dangerous with the ball in his hands. The Tigers' most experienced receiver will not only challenge the Gators' secondary, but also UF's front seven Even typically outspoken safety Jarvis Herring had compliments for Green. "Their offense is explosive this year because Green is finally healthy," Herring said. "He's a slasher who can do anything with the ball." Due to the scheme, UF's blitzing style requires that cornerbacks Dee Webb and Vernell Brown cover receivers one-on-one in most packages. In five wins this season, the Gators have allowed just 142 passing yards per game. But in their one loss, they gave up 286 yards in the air. SEE LSU, PAGE 19 UF's Jarvis Herring and the rest of the Gators' secondary couldn't stop Alabama's passing game two weeks ago. LSU's receiving corps might be even more dangerous. Please Urban, no Moore; Manson can save UF's struggling backfield fter days and days of toiling, testing and tinkering in the alligatorSports football laboratory, I've made a breakthrough in the search for UF's running game. The $1 billion answer: Give Markus Manson the football over and over and over again. One only need examine the Gators' second possession against Mississippi State in order to recognize the absurdity of UF's running back depth chart. On first down, starting back Kestahn Moore takes an option pitch for 1 yard. Moore follows up with a 2-yard run on second down. A Chris Leak-to-Chad Jackson connection saves the Gators' first scoring drive. Manson then takes a handoff for 11 yards. Three plays later, Moore rumbles and fumbles ahead for a gain of 6. Beginning to notice a pattern here? Apparently, it's Moore for less in the UF rushing game. Perhaps the guy has some incriminating documents concerning Meyer? Fraudulent tax records, nude photographs, kinky videotapes, recorded telephone conversations with mafia crime bosses?. At least those would be rational explanations as to why he remains so hell-bent on Moore. Could it be that Mr. Egalitarian has learned how to play favorites? Besides his successful track record, it was Meyer's insistence that every position was up for grabs that enabled him to wean the Gators off pushover -I mean -players' coach Ron Zook with such ease: Benchwarmers and All-Americans then coexisted on the same plane of competition. Like some benevolent dictator, Meyer blurred the lines between pigskin proletariat and bourgeoisie. A player's participation on Saturday hinged on his practice performances during the week. And no position illustrated Meyer's policy more than running back. After much ado about junior Skyler Thornton and Manson, Meyer tapped Moore -a freshman experiencing his first collegiate game -to take over for the pseudo-suspended DeShawn Wynn in the season-opener against Bryan App .Wyoming. App-etite Since then, Wynn for Receptions has amassed the most bapp@alligator.org carries, but Moore, a Meyer recruit, has questionably remained in the mix ahead of Manson, a back that teammates raved about as he redshirted last season. Meyer's reasoning: Manson fumbles too much in practice. But there are plenty of playmakers who, for some mysterious reason, just don't perform well in practice. The Gators had a guy like that once. Perhaps Meyer has heard of him, or at least seen his jersey plastered on the interior of the Swamp. His name is Danny Wuerffel. Steve Spurrier often would dog the Heisman winner after practices. But no matter how bad he. tanked Monday through Friday, Wuerffel was money when it mattered. And if Meyer wants to talk about butterfingers, his boy put the ball on the turf twice in the first half against the Bulldogs. After averaging 10.3 yards per carry during the first half, Manson appeared to be exactly the kind of explosive, hard-hitting back Meyer called for after UF's embarrassment in Tuscaloosa. He can hit holes faster than any other UF tailback -a must, considering the Gators' struggling offensive line. One can't help-but imagine the difference Manson would've made in the Alabama game if only he'd carried the ball more than once. Perhaps it would've forced the Tide to put more than three in the box. Meyer cannot afford to waiver on the running back situation any longer, not with impending season-breakers against LSU and Georgia. It's not exactly rocket science or anything.

18, ALLIGATOR E WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 12, 2005 Georia bingsfarnliarfac0 Luanne Deitz/ Alligator Staff UF's Amber McCray learned a lot from her sister Nicole, a former UF star and current UGA coach. Tonight they will be opponents. E FORMER GATORS STARS WILL RETURN TO O-DOME. By BRYAN JONES Alligator Writer Tonight will be a homecoming of sorts for former UP volleyball stars Steffi Legall and Nicole McCray, and the Gators will attempt to make their return as unpleasant as possible. Legall, Georgia's head coach, and McCray, a Bulldog assistant coach, both played for the Gators under coach Mary Wise's tenure at UF -a tenure that includes 14 straight Southeastern Conference titles and perennial powerhouse status. When the Gators (16-1, 6-0 SEC) square off against Georgia (7-8, 2-3 SEC) tonight, it will mark the first time Legall and McCray will visit the O'Connell Center in their current coaching positions. While Legall and McCray are certainly familiar with UF's system, the talent on the court is what really matters, Wise said. McCray will not only be facing her former coach in the match, but also her younger sister, Amber McCray, who is UF's starting opposite hitter. Amber McCray said she is proud of Nicole and considers the match as another opportunity to see her sister. "We've talked about their scouting, and she always tells me how weird it is when she has to do video about me and some of the things against me," McCray said. "But she doesn't tell me too much details about what they are going to do. We keep it professional." "We are going to respect our opponent a lot more than we did when we played Georgia before." Kisya Killingsworth UF volleyball player While the Gators defeated Georgia 3-0 (30-26, 30-28, 30-22) in Athens earlier this season, it was perhaps the most difficult SEC match UF has played this season. The Gators spent much of the match fighting from behind, narrowly winning the first two games before overpowering Georgia in the third game. If not for a breakout performance from sophomore middle blocker Kari Klinkenborg, the match could have gotten a little too interesting for UF's taste. While Klinkenborg's 13 kills and five blocks helped to counter Georgia's star middle blocker Alexandra Oquendo, the Gators will likely look to sophomore Kisya Killingsworth to try to neutralize Oquendo this time around. Killingsworth's 27 kills and 10 blocks over the course of her last two matches earned her SEC Player of the Week honors. "We are going to respect our opponent a lot more than we did when we played Georgia before," Killingsworth said. "So coming into the second match we are going to look at it saying 'OK, well they did this, this and that. We need to stop them from doing this, this and that."' The last time UF faced Georgia in Gainesville, the Bulldogs nearly knocked the Gators out of the SEC Tournament, as UF barely defeated Georgia in a five-game thriller. This season, however, UF is undefeated at home and has yet to lose a game at the O'Connell Center. While Georgia does not appear to be intimidated by UP, the Gators have won 38 straight matches against the Bulldogs. Wise said Georgia is only going to improve as the year progresses, and she expects them to challenge for an NCAA Tournament bid. "When we played them, Julia Petruschke, their senior outside hitter, we had a hard time defending her. And the last time they played in the O'Connell Center, she and Alexandra Oquendo were nothing short of outstanding," Wise said "I'd have to think [the Bulldogs] like coming to the 0Dome." r ----7r he7rf d -GENERAL NUTRITION CENTERS FREE Multi Vitamin w/ $30 purchase IOnly oilohle ot Badler Plaza location, next to ilhettsons.I Not vaild with any other offers, see sales assoc. for details.

WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 12, 2005 3 ALLIGATOR, 19 Meyer preps secondary for tough competition from Tigers' receiving corps LSU, from page 17 If UF's only goal was stopping Green, Meyer would not be as concerned, but any one of LSU's receivers could prove deadly on Saturday. Junior Dwayne Bowe plays the Z position for the Tigers. His 6-foot-3, 217-pound stature makes him a tough matchup. "LSU's receivers are big, fast and extremely physical," Herring said. "We'll be battling all night, that's for sure." Bowe's three touchdowns currently lead the Tigers. In addition, LSU boasts the two top-rated receivers from the 2004 high school class in sophomores Early Doucet (6-foot, 206 pounds) and Xavier Carter (6-foot-3, 198 pounds). Carter will probably be the fastest player UF faces all year, clocking in at 4.35 in the 40-yard dash. The former Palm Bay standout, who once considered attending UF, was high school teammates with current Gators' defensive end Joe Cohen and safety Reggie Nelson. LSU quarterback JaMarcus Russell still has another option in skilled junior Craig Davis, whom Russell has been looking to in the slot. "This is the most talented group of receivers I've ever beFn around," LSU wide receivers coach Todd Monken said. "These guys have constantly been hearing about how good they are." 11 9% "Copyrighted Material Syndicated Content Available from Commercial News Providers" MCDONALD IN PADS: UF star defensive Ray McDonald who has been out of action since the Tennessee game with a partially-torn ACL in his knee returned to practice on Tuesday. McDonald, donning shoulder pads, participated in individual but notteam drills. UF coach Urban Meyer said McDonald will likely return for the Georgia game, which would give him two weeks to rest The Gators face LSU this weekend and have a bye next week. "The thing you worry about with any team situation is anybody falling on him, then you're setback," Meyer said. "We'rejut watching him closely, we're trying to get him in game shaye. Chris Leak, nursing a shoulder injury, also returned to practice. Meyer said the junior quarterback seemed fine. NOTSO BLOODYTUESDAY: Meyer's trademark "Bloody Tuesdays" -always the toughest practice of the week -wasn't so gory this time around. With injuries continuing to pile up, Meyer had the players wear shorts and take it a bit easier this week before facing LSU. "We better be at [top) speed on Saturday," Meyer said. "We had a long practice but we just took the pants off today."
