Back in business


Mayor returns to work
By KIMBERLY GOUZ
Alligator Contributing Writer

Mayor Pegeen Hanrahan will return to her post a
week early for Monday's City Commission meeting,
after spending a month of maternity leave learning
R!,. how to be a mom.
Hanrahan said she would return to the commnis-
sion early to ease her way back into the job.
.- "I'm still not going to be up to full schedule,"
she said. "It would be tough to go from being 100
percent on maternity leave to being 100 percent back
at work."
Hanrahan faces three deadlocked issues, includ-
ing how and when future elections for local officials
will be held.
The full commission also will choose consultants
to design a new city energy plan.
"The mayor's vote will make the difference," said
City Commissioner Jack Donovan.
She said motherhood hasn't been easy on her.
"We call [the baby] 'the barracuda' because she's
very aggressive when she wants to eat," Hanrahan
said. "She just goes in for the kill."
Evyleen Mary Malone, born Sept. 13, was named
after Hanrahan's grandmother.
"She was such a strong, outspoken and indepen-
dent woman," Hanrahan said of the baby's name-
sake. "The baby is feisty like she was. She comes from
a long line of feisty women."
Although Hanrahan has been out of the office, she
has kept up-to-date on the issues.
"I'vebeenwatchingmeetingsathome," Hanrahan
said. "Sometimes it's hard to watch when you have
the desire to be engaged in the issues."

Students divided on assisted suicide


By JESSICA RIFFEL
Alligator Writer
jriffel@alligator.org

Whether for constitutional or moral
reasons, students are split over the issue
of physician-assisted suicide.
UF College Democrats follow their
party and side with Oregon, arguing that
a state has the ability to enact a law en-
abling physician-assisted suicide.
* College Republicans side with their
party's conservative approach, contend-
ing that the federal government has the
ability to control this medical issue.


"The government, other people
or even ourselves cannot de-
cide when life should end."
Kate Keeley
Pro-life Alliance president

But many leave party politics behind
and struggle to decide where they stand
on the controversial issue.
"With most issues, I have a strong
opinion, but with this I don't," said Sean
Lebowitz, president of the Law School
Democrats. "I just don't know."


The Supreme Court heard the case ad-
ressing Oregon's 1997 Death with Dignity
Act, which allows physician-assisted sui-
cide, Oct. 5.
The case resulted from Attorney
General John Ashcroft's 2001 statement
that Oregon's doctors would lose federal
prescription privileges if they prescribed
lethal doses of medications.
Oregon is challenging Ashcroft's au-
thority to regulate state law in front of the
Supreme Court, in newly appointed Chief
Justice Judge Roberts' first oral argument.

Campus eats


may go credit

By DAVID COHEN
Alligator Writer
dcohen@alligator.org

UF eateries may go "plastic" if officials
decide to allow credit cards at on-campus
dinifig locations in two mortths, though
the switch might hike prices.
UF officials are hesitant to allow stu-
dents to pay for food with credit cards, cit-
ing the possibility of longer lines, student
debts and increased food prices.
UF Business Services Divison Director
James Morgan said the newly built Sun
Terrace, which houses four restaurants
near the Health Science Center, is serving
as a model in paying with credit cards.
But Morgan said when customers use
credit cards at the Sun Terrace, the trans-
actions are slowing down the line. He
said the credit-card machines use dial-up
Internet to access the credit-card company
databases, and the result is a
Student 30-second to a minute wait
Life time for approval.
"It's taking longer than we
had hoped," he said, adding
the credit-card approval system will not
be practical around campus at that speed.
Debit-card payment is not being consid-
ered, Morgan said, because of the hassles of
punching in a PIN number.
Gator Dining representatives were not
available for comment.
Morgan said he should have enough
information to make a decision within the
next two months whether to allow cus-
tomers to pay for food with credit cards
all over campus.
If all 13 Gator Dining campus locations
were allowed to accept credit cards, Morgan
said it would cost UF an estimated $1 mil-
lion in new cash registers, software and
wiring. He added that food prices could
increase up to 5 percent because credit-card
companies charge a transaction fee.
UF officials are considering possible
problems with implementing credit card
payment systems. Price hikes and long
lines could deter customers, Morgan
said.

STUDENT GOVERNMENT

Supervisor of Elections resigns for semester-at-sea


By DAVID COHEN
Alligator Writer
dcohen@alligator.org

Student Government Supervisor of
Elections Daniel Maland announced his
resignation at Student Senate on Tuesday.
"I'm the guy who brought you the digi-
tal disaster," Maland said jokingly, refer-
ring to the Fall election. However, he said
the election had one of UF's highest Fall
election turnout rates at 6,666.
Maland will attend a University of
Pittsburgh semester-at-sea program in
which he will travel to Puerto Rico, Brazil,
South Africa, India and China.
Applications for supervisor are avail-
able in SG offices in the Reitz Union and


are due Nov. 9. Maland said he would help
train the next supervisor.

In other Senate news
Student Body Treasurer Lindsay
Cosimi said many student organizations
have not registered their clubs with the
Student Activities Center for 2005-06, which
makes them ineligible for SG funding.
Clubs that are not registered include UF
medical, school and law school clubs and
organizations within the Jewish Student
Union and Hispanic Student Association.
Asian American Student Union
Chairwoman Sandy Chiu spoke to
Senate about being told by the Budget &
Appropriations Committee that her orga-
nization can only spend 50 percent of its


special events budget on guest speakers
for next year's Kaleidoscope event, which
celebrates Asian American culture.
Event speakers highlight Asian
American issues that are not widely dis-
cussed at UF, Chiu said after the meeting.
Chiu went before the committee
Sunday and heard the news. However, the
AASU, like all organizations, attends three
meetings to determine its special-events
budget.
Committee Chairwoman Jackie Pace said
this is in an attempt to diversify the AASU's
programming.

Graduate and Professional Student
Caucus Chairman Christopher Eklund said


his organization plans to upgrade UF's fam-
ily-housing facilities, improve health care
quality, increase the availability of academic
resources and bridge the divide between
graduate and professional students with the
rest of the student body.
"To put it simply, graduate students ac-
tively build the reputation and prestige of
the university," he said.
However, Eklund said he did not know
where the majority of the funding for the
project would come from.

Senate President John Boyles appoint-
ed former Gator Party District D Senate
candidate Richard Slaughter as Senate par-
liamentarian.


Students to sex up

UF students will be having
Sex on the Lawn today.
Outside the Reitz Union at
10 a.m., Vox: Voices for Planned
Parenthood will hold its third-
annual. sex health education
fair, Sex on the Lawn.
The fair will include games,
giveaways and free HIV test-
ing.
"The idea behind the fair is
to educate the student body on
sexual health and current issues
in the reproductive policy (i.e.
the abortion debate)," said Sara
Hanson, the president of Vox.
A representative, from
Planned Parenthood will be
available to answer questions
and administer the free HIV
tests on campus.
"I think HIV testing is a sen-
sitive issue for most students,"
Hanson said.
Most students will prefer to
go to the clinic instead of get-
ting tested on campus, she said.
Confidentiality of the tests is
ensured in several ways.
Educator Mike Amish and
his staff will administer the


tests with only one person
in each of the two rooms at a
time, said Kristen Lang, Vox
secretary.
Sexual health is a huge con-
cern for everyone, especially
for college students, she said.
- Vox Treasurer Jessica Ducey
said students are afraid to ask
sexual-health questions, and
the fair presents the answers in
a fun way.
Hanson said
On the organization
Campus wants to inform
students on the
changes happening in the
Supreme Court.
"We are just trying to raise
awareness that even though
John Roberts has been ap-
pointed, there is still another
vacancy," she said.
The organization has not
taken any stance on who would
be the best option for the open
seat.
The legislature needs to
know how students feel on the
issue, she said.
The information on the
Supreme Court will be at the
table of current issues under-
neath the tent at the fair.


Programs offer relief to women with pelvic floor pain


* THE DISORDER IS ASSOCIATED
WITH PAINFUL SEX.

By KIMBERLY GOUZ
Alligator Contributing Writer

She knew it was supposed to be painful
the first time, but she didn't expect anything
like this.
"When I first started having sex, it hurt a
lot, but I thought ... the pain would eventually
go away," she said.
"It was my mom who told me that my situ-
ation wasn't normal."
The UF graduate student, who wished to
remain anonymous, lives with dyspareunia, a
type of muscle pain in the lower abdomen as-
sociated with painful intercourse.
For women with pelvic floor pain, discomfort
ranges from painful intercourse or bowel move-
ments to dull aches and persistent cramps.
Because of its embarrassing nature, the
topic is an uncomfortable one for her.


"I don't like talking about it, and I don't feel
it is anyone's business," she said.
But when her physical therapist asked her
to come forward, she did, because she said she
felt it was important that others know they are
not alone.
"Thank God I could confide in my mom,
and now I-am getting help," she said.
She is being treated by a physical therapist
at ReQuest for Women, a local women's health
clinic.
Her therapist uses techniques such as bio-
feedback, electrical stimulation and massage,
she said, to ease the pressure of her pelvic
floor and to help her learn to dilate her vagina
through stretching techniques.
"It's still not my favorite thing to do, but
I know the physical therapist now, and she
makes me feel comfortable," she said. "The
other thing is that now I have started to see
results, and that is kind of exciting."
Although she has only been undergoing
treatment for two months, she said that she
has seen a-90-percent improvement. -


"I'm lucky I have a really supportive boy-
friend," she said "It's important that a guy real-
izes this problem is real, but if they stick by their
girlfriend, then eventually she'll get better."
Paula Bruce, a physical therapist and wom-
en's health specialist at ReQuest-for Women,
said she is always amazed by how fast her
patients improve.
"I love treating pelvic pain
Public because the women get better so
Health quickly," Bruce said. "Physical
therapy has been treating prob-
lems like this for many years, but it hasn't been
common knowledge until recently."
Bruce said half the battle is being able to
teach women about their diagnosis.
"Sometimes I don't even have to touch the
patient, and by the next time they visit me they
are already 25- to 50-percent better," she said.
"Often all it takes is a little education."
Bruce said dyspareunia is only one kind
of pelvic floor pain that can be treated with
physical therapy Another common diagnosis
- associated with pelvic pain is interstitial cysti-


tis, a bladder disease that can result in frequent
and painful urination.
Interstitial cystitis is common among wom-
en who have had children because childbirth
weakens the pelvic floor, Bruce said.
"It is a muscle, just like any other muscle,
and you need to exercise it," she said.
Bruce teaches her patients how to control
their bladders with kegel exercises.
"You teach behavioral techniques," she
said. "In these cases, the bladder has taken
control of the brain, and we want to get the
brain back in control of the body."
Tejal Patel, a physical therapist at Shands,
said that approximately 40 percent of
American women suffer from pelvic pain, and
not enough of them do something about it.
These problems can be socially embarrass-
ing, she noted, but you have to start some-
where if you want to get better, and this is a
good place to start.
"It's a .shame that a lot of people don't
know about treatments for pelvic pain," Patel
said. .

Exhibition depicts lives, families of mentally ill


By DONNA MITRANI
Alligator Contributing Writer

The "Nothing to Hide: Mental
Illness in the Family" photo exhi-
bition peers into the lives of the
mentally ill and the families that
care not just for, but about them.

"I think it's great because
you're getting the perspec-
tive of the family members.
When somebody is diag-
nosed or misdiagnosed, it
has a huge impact on the
family."
Gail Greenhunt
Shands at UF social worker

The exhibit consists of 21
black-and-white photographs,
each of which is accompanied by
first-person accounts of the care-
taking family members.
The project's authors, pho-
tographer Gigi Kaeser and inter-
viewers Jean J. Beard and Peggy


Gillespie, said they hoped that by
creating the project, they could
help change negative stereotypes
surrounding mental illnesses.
Gail Greenhunt, a social work-
er at Shands at UF, heard about
the exhibit from a co-worker and
went to view it Monday morn-
ing.
Greenhunrt said she enjoyed
the exhibit, especially because it
included the comments and -ex-
periences of family members in
their own words.
"I think it's great because
you're getting the perspective of
the family members," Greenhunt
said. "When somebody is diag-
nosed or misdiagnosed, it has a
huge impact on the family."
According to the National
Institute of Mental Health Web
site, one in five adults suffers
from a diagnosable mental dis-
order.
The photo-text exhibit can be
found at the Shands at UF Atrium
until Oct. 28 and is free of charge
and open to the public.


(ourresy pnoco
The photo-text exhibit, "Nothing to Hide: Mental Illness in the Family," created by Family Diversity Proj-
ects, will be featured until Oct. 28 in the Shands at UF Atrium.

Easy business

Wal-Mart will jump-start

East Gainesville economy
We can finally get a haircut, cash our checks, fill our
gas tanks and buy fertilizer all at the same place,
while eating an apple too:.
A 204,000-square-foot Wal-Mart Supercenter will be built
in East Gainesville despite some nearby residents' protests.
The store is one of two that company officials originally
planned to bring to our area. The second center was to be
built in Northwest Gainesville, but the City Commission.
has repeatedly rejected the plan.
We're glad the company decided to build a store on
Waldo Road rather than stick to its original threat that it
would build at both locations or none at all.
This corporate machine stands to do what city officials
couldn't: jump-start East Gainesville's economy.
When both projects were attached, this benefit was
overshadowed by objections to the northwest project. By
separating the two,-we can finally talk about one without
drudging up all the controversy tied to the other.
For years, residents have protested the northwest lo-
cation because they worried the store would pollute the
source of Hogtown Creek and hurt local businesses.
But East Gainesville has none of those issues. Some op-
ponents of the northwest store actually support the east
store.
Thus far, complaints have come from nearby residents
who worry about the store causing increased traffic and
decreased property value.
This would be a problem no matter which businesses
moved to east Gainesville. And because.for years the goal
has been to increase business in the area, their arguments
lack any weight.
, These residents live next to a commercial property. It's
unfortunate, but it's unavoidable.
It would be nice for Wal-Mart to address the concerns of
those living in residential developments, but it's in no way
necessary.
Of course, increased traffic is a problem both residential
and commercial developments will share. Wal-Mart is a rich
empire, so it might actually do the job better than another
business.
And trying to change the property's zoning for one's
personal comfort just won't happen.
So sticking a Wal-Mart in that area is as good as putting
any business there. In fact, it's probably better.
Wal-Mart is unique in its ability to survive in economi-
cally depressed,regions. It's cheap, so it attracts everyone
from surrounding areas, and it sells everything, so it's a
one-stop shop.
However, other businesses can function in its shadow.
While Wal-Mart might push out local businesses in areas
that already thrive, it attracts stores in areas that have noth-
ing.
Wal-Mart's business practices might be a little shady, but
when we look at this situation purely from the perspective
of East Gainesville, its impending existence seems incred-
ibly beneficial.
So it makes sense that city officials are all for the project.
By pushing Wal-Mart to separate the plans for the two
stores, they've also further defined two very different .is-
sues.

Column

Democrats need ideas to gain power


f the Democratic Party wants to gain power in the 2006
off-year elections and beyond, it'll have to steal a page
from Notre Dame and "wake up the echoes."
It's a truism that politicians "campaign in poetry and
govern in prose," and that's fine. But during the last decade
or so, Democrats have shown a tendency to campaign in
the poetry of an angst-ridden 13-year-old girl and then act
surprised when no one lets them govern.
It's a bad habit the Democrats are going to have to break,
because.this party finally has an opportunity to make real
strides and take back the reins of government. To botch this
chance would be fatal.
But this shouldn't be so hard, we protest. After all, the
incumbents have proven thoroughly incapable of compe-
tent governance. An unnecessary war in Iraq that still might
have been a force for good has been so blemished that it's
nearly impossible to foresee a positive conclusion. The per-
petrator of the Sept. 11, 2001 atrocity remains alive and free
with no prospect of his capture on the horizon.
On the domestic front, a Republican-dominated govern-
ment has done nothing to advance the country's state. A
recent NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll indicated only 2
percent of African Americans approve of President Bush.
The Klan has a higher approval rate among African
Americans.
"Family value" conservatives Tom DeLay and Bill Frist
have become' embroiled in scandal, and the Republican
Party is fighting itself on a wide swath of issues.
So why should this be so difficult for the Democrats?
Because it turns out that the American public actually
expects its opposition party to offer something more than
even the most well-deserved criticism.
They expect their opposition party to present ideas.
Democrats need to present a vision to the American peo-

ple, an ideal of what a Democratic
America would be. Pointing out the
moral and intellectual bankruptcy
of this Republican government
isn't going to be adequate; the situ-
ation was just as clear in November
2004, and it didn't stop the public
from voting in droves for the status
quo.
This is where the echoes come


in.
What should make the current state of the Democratic
"message" so infuriating to rank-and-file Democrats is that
their party used to burst with ambitious ideas and themes.
It was a Democrat who spoke to a shattered nation, told
the public, "the only thing we have to fear is fear itself" and
embarked upon an extraordinary New Deal that sustained
the country through the Great Depression.
It was a Democrat who stood before the American peo-
ple in the dark days following Sputnik and made an incred-
ible promise: This country would reach the moon before the
end of the decade. And it was Democratic administrations
that fulfilled his pledge.
It was a Democrat who declared a War on Poverty and
stated that America must become a "Great Society."
Not all of these ideas worked. Many failed, and miser-
ably. But they were ideas. They were an attempt to create
something more, something better. They' were dreams,
sometimes inspired., sometimes irrational.
But history reserves its strongest ovations for the irratio-
nal dreamers, and the American public reserves its votes for
those with a vision.

Scientific world needs to share genome
I found the Monday column involving the
avian flu very informative. However, if Matt
Melone had done more research into the vi-
rus, he would have discovered that avian flu
has thus far claimed victims who are either
young, old or have weak immune systems.
Comparing it to the plague of the Middle Ages
is'an overstatement.
Concerning the release of the Spanish flu
genome, I find it difficult to believe a terror-
ist would use it as a weapon. There are many
lethal viruses that are much more available to
a terrorist, such as smallpox.
The manufacture of a virus is more com-
plicated than Melone said. Large amounts
of capital and knowledge would be needed,
which I doubt Osama bin Laden has access to.


Sharing of information in the scientific
world is critical to solve problems. The release
of the Spanish flu genome is essential to better
understand and prepare for the avian flu.

WebMail decision needed student voice
Monday's editorial about faults in the tran-
sition to UF's new e-mail forwarding policy
was spot on, but it fails to address the cause
of the problem.
The decision to end students' ability to for-
ward their GatorLink e-mail was made by the
Information Technology Advisory Committee
in the Office of Information Technology. ITAC


is a committee made entirely of deans and
administrators; there is no student representa-
tion.
Student representatives on this university-
wide board would help ensure ITAC's deci-
sions don't adversely affect students, who rely
on technology for their educational activities.
More than 20 university committees have
student representatives who sit with uni-
versity decision makers and voice student
concerns. If students can guide decisions on
everything from housing to affirmative action,
why is information technology any different?
Students deserve a voice. We deserve a seat
on ITAC.

Facts on abortion always stay the same
People talk about ignorance as though they
have all the answers. They talk about their
opinions as though they were facts.
Let me enlighten you folks: A mother is a
mother, a fetus is a fetus, and a baby is a baby.
How you interpret the physical reality of con-
ception, pregnancy, birth and life is your own
opinion; it is not based on fact but on emotion
and personal belief.
The reason people disagree about abortion
is because of the differences in their views, not
differences in fact.
There's no discrepancy between our reali-
ties; we're just all reacting to the same facts dif-
ferently, and that's what's really human.

New UF facility to train for termite, pest control


* THE CENTER WILL BE BUILT
ON ITS APOPKA CAMPUS.

By ELIZABETH HILLAKER
Alligator Contributing Writer

A new UF project is combatting
termites and the complaints about
the people who kill them.
A $150,000 grant to the UF
Institute of Food and Agricultural
Sciences will establish the Orkin
Termite Training Facility on the
university's Apopka campus.


The facility will train students,
government agents and industry
professionals how to correctly kill
termites, said Faith Oi, UF professor
and assistant extension scientist.
Sixty-five percent of disciplinary
action in the pest-control industry
is termite-service related, Oi said.
When pest-control companies have
to re-do a job for free because of a
complaint, 90 percent of the costs
are from termite service.
A similar facility in Oklahoma
caused the number of complaints
there to plummet, she said.


The first phase .of the facil-
ity is projected to cost $300,000.
Construction will begin in 2006, and
it should
UF open for
Administration training by
this time
next year, she said.
Someone's house is not the place
to learn what to do, said Martha
Craft, an Orkin employee.-
"They need to be properly
trained before they go out in the
field," Craft added.
It will be an industry-based facil-


ity, she said, with 90 percent of its
clients coming from the professional
sector. Student usage will be less
than 5 percent of the facility's use.
Entomology students could use
the facility as part of the ride-along
program, which is an internship in
the field or as part of a course, she.
said.
The two-day class sessions
will be capped at 20 students, and
though other termite-training facili-
ties charge between $250 and $450,
UF's self-sustaining facility has not
decided what it will charge.


The facility will expand with ad-
ditional sponsorship by Terminix,
the Florida Pest Management
Association and others, Oi said.
The facility is located in Apopka
due to its relatively central location
and proximity to the Orlando air-
port. Pest-control agents in northern
states will be able to use the facility
as well, she said.
Pests carry disease, damage
property and affect public health,
Craft said. Anything that benefits
the pest-control industry as a whole
will benefit the public, she said.

Hanrahan finds balance between work, motherhood

She brought the baby to a Sept. 12

"We joked that we had to bring a baby
for Sen. Nelson to kiss," Hanrahan said.
The baby also has frequented her
father's band rehearsals and attended a
recent gig at an art studio downtown.
Evyleen's father, Tony Malone, plays
trumpet and bass guitar in a five-member
rock band, Weeds of Eden.
"The baby seems to really enjoy the
music as near as you can tell," Malone said.
Malone is also an engineer at CH2M Hill.
He said the baby's favorite song is
"Silver Wings" by Merle Haggard.
"The band was learning it around the
time she was bom," he said. "One time she
was fussy during a car ride and I sang it to
her. She shut right up."

Students' uncertainty arises not only because of is-
sues concerning state vs. federal jurisdiction but also
because many moral arguments exist for and against
assisted suicide.
The Pro-Life Alliance opposes assisted suicide, and
president Kate Keeley said the federal government
should step in to protect its citizens.
"The government, other people or even ourselves
cannot decide when life'should end," she said.
Conservatives also argue the slippery-slope theory.
"It's starting a trend," said Matt Dean, executive
director of the College Republicans. "It will become
something .that is more accessible."
However, Ray Moseley, associate professor in the
Bioethics, Law and Medical Professionalism program in
UF's College of Medicine disagrees.
"The slippery-slope theory doesn't hold a lot of
weight for me because there are safeguards in place,"
Moseley said.
Two doctors must determine that a patient's life
expectancy is less than six months and thaf he or she
is mentally competent. To complete the process, the pa-
tient must make an initial request to the doctor and wait
15 days before making a written request observed by at
least two witnesses.
The patient must also be advised of treatment and
pain-management alternatives, and the doctor can only
prescribe the drugs, not administer them.
"It's not like they're just letting anyone commit sui-
cide," said Stephanie Sims, College Democrats president.
"I support the law with these regulations in place."
But Moseley pointed out one ethical downfall of
physician-assisted suicide. He said patients who either
don't have funds to pay for pain-relieving treatment or
don't wish to deplete their savings might choose suicide
over treatment.
"My concern with this issue is that if we have the
current medical system, people will make their decision
of treatment or suicide based on their financial situa-
tion," Moseley said.
He described a possible situation in which a grand-
mother might choose suicide over treatment or nursing
home care that would deplete her savings.
"She might be tempted to choose death to make
sure her children get the money," Moseley said. "It may
sound harsh, but I know people who would make that
decision in a heartbeat."
Moseley said that under the current medical sys-
tem, the rich have no incentive to choose suicide be-
cause they can pay for pain-management treatment,
but the .poor more likely would request assisted
suicide. "
"I would not be for someone killing themselves for
financial reasons," Moseley said. *
He said the United States needs a system in which
citizens can get reasonable access to basic healthcare so
that high prices of medical care will not overinfluence
patient's decisions regarding suicide.
Although Shands HealthCare spokesman Lance
Skelly said he would not comment on Oregon hospitals'
assisted suicide policy, he said, "We're in the business of
keeping people alive."
The Supreme Court's decision is expected in July. -

Students turn holiday into homeless fundraiser

Ramadan a time of reflection Non-Muslims urged to fast for local shelter


By NADIA PAYAN
Alligator Contributing Writer

Natasha El-Sergany has spent the
last two weeks hungry.
Since Oct. 4, E1-Sergany and
other Muslim students have fasted
from sunrise to sunset in observance
of the holy month of Ramadan, an
experience she said she finds re-
warding.
"Ramadan here is actually more
involved with the community than
it is at home," said El-Sergany, a ju-
nior majoring in English from West
Palm Beach.
The 29 days of Ramadan, the
ninth month of the Islamic calendar,
and the accompanying tradition
of fasting are intended to guide
Muslims to concentrate on their
faith.
Islam On Campus, a Muslim
student organization at UF, serves as


a liaison for students like El-Sergany
to raise awareness about Islam
through events such as the Ramadan
Fast-A-Thon on Thursday.
Nutritionist Janis Mena advises
that fasting should be done with
care.
Students should drink caloric
fluids before fasting,
Student such as Gatorade, said
Life Mena, who works
with GatorWell Health
Promotion Services.
She also said students fasting daily
should be careful to eat only to their
appetite once they do eat again. _
Event coordinator Omar Ishaq
said he feels that fasting should
not be viewed as a handicap but a
chance to focus on the world around
oneself.
"It's supposed to make us feel
what the less fortunate feel," Ishaq
said. "It's rejuvenating."

Islam on Campus is combining
faith with'fundraising Thursday.
The UF student group aims to
bring understanding of hunger
to non-Muslim students through
fasting as part of a fundraiser for
Gainesville's St. Francis House, a
local shelter for the homeless.
The Ramadan Fast-a-Thon, in
its third year at UF, is a national
program that raises money for
soup kitchens by asking business-
es to pledge a certain donation for
every non-Muslim student who
agrees to fast for one day.
"You can show people pictures
of the homeless and say, 'They're
hungry,' but unless you know
what it feels like, it doesn't hit you
as much," said program coordina-
tor Omar Ishaq.


For 29 days of the Muslim holy
month, Ramadan, which began
Oct. 4, Muslims don't eat or drink
from sunrise to sunset.
You can show people
pictures of the homeless
and say, 'They're hungry,'
but unless you know what
it feels like, it doesn't hit
you as much."
Omar Ishaq
Ramadan Fast-a-Thon coordinator


The program begins at 6:58
a.m. and 'concludes with a do-
nated dinner for all participants in
the Stephen C. O'Connell Center
at 6:58 p.m.
Last year, Islam on Campus
raised $1,000 with 250 partici-
pants. This year, Ishaq said he ex-


pects to exceed that amount with
more than 400 participants.
"We have a lot of interest be-
cause this event helps people to
understand hunger in a different
way," he said.
Ishaq said the issue is par-
ticularly important in Alachua
County, one of Florida's poorest,
because jobs are limited, especially
to residents with no college educa-
tion competing with graduating
students.
"When we, see a bum, our first
reaction is, 'Get a job,' but there
is a real. problem here," he said.
"This program is a way for the
UF student body and administra-
tion to take a stance on hunger in
Gainesville."
Ishaq said the dinner will
feature speakers from the St.
Francis House, where previous
participants in the event decided
to volunteer after the fast.


Serving capacity at campus eateries 'maxed out;' debt concerns ended credit-card use


FOOD COURT, from page 1

Employees could be frustrated with
customers if there is a glitch with the sys-
tem or a declined card.
Reitz Union Director of Operations
Mike Mironack said until the credit card
system can process payments faster than
30 seconds, he doesn't think card pay-

ments in the Union Food Court would be
beneficial.
Student Body President Joe Goldberg
said Student Government has-been trying
to bring credit-card usage to campus din-
ing for about two years.
"My goal is to get credit cards in every
place on campus," he said. "'Our students
use credit cards. We just need to get it
done."
But Mironack said SG doesn't have
much of a say other than expressing stu-
dent opinions.
"Student Government is not part of
the equation," he said. "This is a service
that would benefit students, but in terms
of who's going to evaluate and make the


decisions, that's really going to be a Gator
Dining decision."
Morgan said students and faculty
have consistently asked to pay with plas-
tic for convenience sake, but the "ease" of
it may cause longer lines.
"Most of our (food) locations are
maxed out now," he said. "You couldn't
do more business if you brought in more
people."
Morgan said one of the reasons there
are so many ATM machines is that UF
wants customers to use cash.
UF's Gator Dining program, which
gives 10.4 percent of its revenue to UF, is
unique to other businesses, he said.
"I think for most businesses or compa-
nies, it's almost a must for them to have
credit cards," he said. "Nobody's really
suffering (here)."
Morgan said after Gator 1 Cards could
be set up to pay for food, credit card
acceptance was halted to curb student
debt.
"We're not here to make it an inconve-
nience, but we want to do the right thing
for [students], too," he said.

Leak, Gators try to revitalize sinking offense
ammmm mmmmana amournt amm mee w s w Marm


* MEYER CRITICAL OF UF'S
OFFENSIVE LINE.

By ANDREW ABRAMSON
Alligator Staff Writer
aabramson@alligator.org

If Urban Meyer hopes to revital-
ize the Gators, he'll have to do it
with bags under his eyes.
Meyer admitted he hasn't slept
much since UF fell to Louisiana State
21-17 on Saturday.
And his sleep mirrors quarter-
back Chris Leak's production in
UF's two losses this year non-
existent.
"You've got to regroup and
regain your composure."
Chris Leak
UF quarterback

"Losses are horrible," Meyer
said. "Especially when you invest
so much ... and we invested a lot in
that last game. That was a lot of in-
vestment by everybody involved."
After an off-season full of prom-
ise and hope, two ESPN.com ana-
lysts are now predicting the Gators
to finish the season in the Music City-
Bowl in Nashville a bowl game
that occurs on Dec. 30.
It would be UF's second consecu-
tive non-January bowl game, mark-


ing a step backward for a program
that many expected would end up
in the top 10.
"You've got to regroup and re-
gain your composure," Leak said.
"The main thing is not to panic and
keep playing."
On Tuesday, Meyer spoke to the
media for the first time since an
emotional press conference follow-
ing Saturday's loss.
With most of the questions di-
rected at UF's offensive failures,
Meyer defended Leak on more than
one occasion while criticizing UF's
offensive line.
Leak completed just 11 of 30
passes for 107 yards on Saturday
- his worst performance as a
starter at UF, but Meyer put to rest
any speculation that true freshman
Josh Portis could compete for any of
Leak's playing time.
"Chris Leak is our quarterback,"
Meyer said. "To put the whole
blame on him is absolutely not fair.
It's everyone involved."
After last year's breakout season
when Leak led the Southeastern
Conference in most of the major
passing categories, the junior cur-
rently ranks just fifth in passing
yards per game and total offense,
and sixth in pass efficiency.
Meyer and offensive coordinator
Dan Mullen completely revised the
offense in the. off-season in an at-.
tempt to try to mirror what they did

Two ways out of Nashville


By NICK ZACCARDI
Alligator Writer

Carolyn Peck has found the fountain
of youth, and it's in Tennessee.
Peck brought in an unprecedented
six-member freshman class, including
four from the Volunteer state.
The freshman class, a talented group
of players who are more plentiful in
number than UF's senior class, is ranked
in the top 10 by multiple recruiting ser-
vices and has an opportunity to help
bring the Gators back to the NCAA
Tournament.
"I believe that [the freshmen] are
going to make a huge contribution to

this team and to the success of the team
this year," said senior Sarah Lowe, who
will compete with a pair of freshmen for
playing time at point guard. "They're go-
ing to make mistakes. At the same time,
they're here for a reason and they're here
to play at that level of competition."
Four freshmen Sha Brooks, Kim
Critton, Marshae Dotson and Jessica
Jackson have been practicing since
Friday.
Two others, LaToya Bullard and
Brooke Cornish, continue to nurse in-
juries.
Brooks and Critton should push
seniors Lowe and Danielle Santos for

he sun is setting a little earlier. The air
is growing colder. And judging by the
violent debate over UF's football fate,
I'd say it's mid-October. And I don't even
have to use a calendar.
It's never too early to talk bowl predic-
tions.
With the Gators in free fall, some have UF
pegged for an appearance in Nashville for
the Music City Bowl on Dec. 30.
And that isn't all too ridiculous.
Considering the parity in the SEC this sea-
son, UF (5-2, 3-2 SEC) really needs a win
against Florida State to solidify a spot in at
least a New Year's Eve game.
Anyone longing for an Outback Bowl
yet?
UF could still make it to the SEC title
game if it defeats Georgia and the Bulldogs
win against Auburn, but the way I see it, the
Gators have two ways out of Nashville.
1. Bench Chris Leak: Timid at best, clue-.
less at worst, Leak has settled one of the hot-


E 1946: Hal Griffin sets a UF record with a
97-yard punt return. However, the Gators still
fell to Miami 20-13 en route to a winless 0-9
season.

test preseason topics.
Can Chris Leak
run the spread-op-
tion? Coach Urban
Meyer probably
heard the question in
his sleep as he made
his summertime
rounds of boosters'
meetings and press
conferences.
The answer: NO.-


I tried to defend the guy as long as I
could. First, it was a learning curve. Later, it
was the offensive line. Then, it was a secret
injury. Now, I admit I was wrong. Leak's
ineptitude in Meyer's system transcends his
11-for-30, 107-yard stat line against LSU on
Saturday. He has happy feet. He's not read-
ing the defense properly on blitzes. And he's
still locking onto receivers. Believe it or not,
Chad Jackson and Dallas Baker aren't the
only players on the team with hands.

successfully at Utah. This meant installing
a spread offense while calling on Leak to
run the option at times a tall task for a
quarterback that has thrived in a traditional
vertical attack.
But this also meant that UF's offensive
line, which was among the best in the SEC,
would have to learn a complex zone-block-
ing scheme. The line is giving up the most
sacks in the conference while ranking next
to last in the SEC in penalties per game.


APP, from page 17

What's the point of even
putting a Kenneth Tookes,
Gavin Dickey, Tate Casey or
Kyle Morgan on the field if
Leak won't even look at them?
Mistakes like these cannot
be attributed to any injury. You
don't throw into triple cover-
age because of a sore shoulder.
Leak is about as comfortable in
the spread as Bernie Machen at
Mons Venus.


"When you don't have time to set your
feet and throw it's just a different ball
game," Leak said.
While Meyer and senior center Mike
Degory said the line showed improvement
against LSU and allowed DeShawn Wynn
to become a viable running threat, it is still
struggling overall.
"Obviously we've got far too many
sacks, far too much pressure, so it's a com-
bination of issues," Meyer said. "It's a little
bit slower than we had hoped."
It doesn't help UF's offensive woes that
a receiver has not stepped up in the absence


And as his decision-making
continues to regress, I'm not
sure if he ever will be comfort-
able.
Is it a coincidence that Meyer
nearly broke down in tears
on Saturday after being asked
about Leak's performance?
He's a smart guy. He knows
Leak can't do what he's asking
of him. But he's also 'an ex-
tremely competitive guy.
It seems as though Meyer's
loyalty to the one-time All-SEC
quarterback is dashing with
his will to win. Still, Meyer just


won't pull the trigger, laying to
rest any rumors of freshman
Josh Portis assuming the start-
ing role on Tuesday.
2. .K.I.S.S: It's time to quit
trying to stuff square pegs into
round holes and just pull out
the old jigsaw.
It's time for Meyer to swal-
low his pride and dumb down
his offense. Put Leak under
center more. Throw to the tight
ends. And where are the slants,
and hitches when the defense
blitzes?
It's time for the offense to


of Andre Caldwell, lost for the season
against Tennessee with a broken leg.
Leak has just two reliable receivers
- Chad Jackson and Dallas Baker while
the third, Jemalle Cornelius, continues to
recover from an ankle injury.
But the team also realizes that all it takes
is a win against No. 4 Georgia for the Gators
to get back in the SEC East race.
"We have four games left and we're just
going to try to prove everybody wrong,"
Degory said. "That's the big focus for us
offensively, to really show that this works.
We know it does."


quit trying to be so damn fancy
and just line up and play foot-
ball less lateral and more
vertical movement. Watching
the average UF drive is like
witnessing Bob -Huggins take
a field sobriety test, for God's
sake. Of course, the spread
needs to be installed, but slowly
over time and when the Gators
have the personnel to do so.
Leak can't run the offense.
Meyer refuses to sit ,him.

UF VOLLEYBALL

Sophomores fill blocker void


* THE 2 K'S STEP INTO KEY
ROLES.
By BRYAN JONES,
Alligator Writer
There was really only one
question that would decide
whether the UF volleyball team
would be a legitimate champion-
ship contender this season.
How would the Gators fill
the void left by departed middle
blockers Michelle Chatman and
Sherri Williams?
The- answer: Kisya
Killingsworth and Kari
Klinkenborg.
It's an answer, however, that
has not always been so apparent.
While Killingsworth and
Klinkenborg are natural middle
blockers, both spent most of their
freshman seasons playing other
positions primarily right-side
hitter as UF struggled to re-
place then-injured right-side hit-
ter Amber McCray.
It was tough enough for the
duo to spend their first season
adjusting to a new position, but
being asked to make the transi-


tion back to the middle blocker
position this year proved to be
even more difficult, Killingsworth
said.
Initially, both struggled to
adapt to the intricacies of the
middle blocking position, which
Coach Mary Wise has said is one
of the most difficult positions to
learn in collegiate volleyball.
Since the start of Southeastern
Conference play, however, it
would seem someone has lit a fire
under the sophomore tandem.
Killingsworth has become one
of the Gators' top scoring options
and has provided UF with a men-
acing presence in the middle.
"What Kisya has done is,
where a year ago she was no-
where on anybody's scouting
report, she is definitely on her
opponent's scouting report,"
Wise said.
After a weekend home
stand earlier this year where
Killingsworth amassed 27
kills over two matches against
Tennessee and South Carolina,
she was honored as the SEC
Player of the Week.
"[Killingsworth] is just a


firecracker," sophomore Amber
McCray said. "When she goes
off, she goes off.".
Meanwhile, Klinkenborg has
been the.steady contributor Wise
has needed her to be.
"We tell all our players 'Be pa-
tient until your time comes, and
then when your time comes, take
full advantage of it.' And that is
what Kari is doing."
And when opponents try to
zone in on UF s more notable
scorers, Klinkenborg can make
them pay the price.
Just ask the Georgia Bulldogs,
against whom Klinkenborg
dropped 13 kills and five blocks
earlier this season.
The progression of the mid-
dles may be the. difference be-
tween an early exit in the NCAA
Tournament and UF's eighth trip
to the Final Four.
I "To win in collegiate women's
volleyball, you have to have a
presence in the middle," Wise
said. "It's one thing to be out
there. It's another thing to score
points. Kisya and Kari are scor-
ing points for us on a consistent
basis."

Peck pins hopes on new talent


WHOOPS, from page 17

playing time at guard, and early in
the preseason, Brooks is already re-
ceiving rave reviews from coaches
and teammates.
"She has definitely
stepped on the court
bringing a lot of energy."
Carolyn Peck
UF women's basketball coach


"She has definitely stepped on
the court bringing a lot of energy,"
Peck said. "She has a lot of basket-
ball knowledge and is savvy on the
court."
Added Santos, "Sha has really
done a good job in the preseason of
getting ready and getting to know
what to expect for this upcoming
year."
Brooks said that her work ethic
in practice is meant to spur on her
more experienced competition.
"I hope to push them really hard
in practice so that it will make them
better defenders in the games," she
said.
Critton, meanwhile, may be the
most athletic of the newcomers.
"She has one of the highest ver-
tical leaps on the team," Peck said.
"She's a pure athlete."
At power forward, Dotson is


suited as a post player.
"She has the ability to shoot the
ball facing up, three-point range,"
Peck said. "She also has a knack for
the ball, especially in the rebound-
ing area."
Jackson comes in as the tallest
newcomer on the team at 6-foot-3,
trying to pick up the massive void
at center left by Vanessa Hayden
two years ago.
The Collierville, Tenn., native's
reach stretches farther than 6-foot-
7 assistant coach Michael Peck's
does.
"We're goihg to look for her to
be a presence from scoring, as well
as blocking shots and rebounding,"
Carolyn Peck said.
Bullard's hamstring injury lin-
gers, and she has not been cleared
to practice yet.
"I'm not focused on basketball
because of my poor hamstring,"
Bullard said. "I'm focused on walk-
ing straight. Its just nagging me."
Cornish had surgery to repair a
stress fracture in her left foot when
she arrived in Gainesville.
The injury caused her to miss
her entire senior season in high
school.
Just recently, she switched from
a cast to a boot, enabling her to do
bike exercises.
"It still hurts, but it's getting a
lot better" Cornish said. "With the
rust, it will be a little difficult [com-
ing back]."

VOLUME 99 ISSUE 40 WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 19, 2005 Back in business Andrea Morales / Alligator Staff Gainesville Mayor Pegeen Hanrahan poses outside her house with her 1-month-old daughter, Evyleen, on Tuesday. Mayor returns to work By KIMBERLY GOUZ Alligator Contributing Writer Mayor Pegeen Hanrahan will return to her post a week early for Monday's City Commission meeting, after spending a month of maternity leave learning how to be a mom. Hanrahan said she would return to the commnission early to ease her way back into the job. "I'm still not going to be up to full schedule," she said. "It would be tough to go from being 100 percent on maternity leave to being 100 percent back at work." Hanrahan faces three deadlocked issues, including how and when future elections for local officials will be held. The full comnmission also will choose consultants to design a new city energy plan. "The mayor's vote will make the difference," said City Commissioner Jack Donovan. She said motherhood hasn't been easy on her. "We call [the baby] 'the barracuda' because she's very aggressive when she wants to eat," Hanrahan said. "She just goes in for the kill." Evyleen Mary Malone, born Sept. 13, was named after Hanrahan's grandmother. "She was such a strong, outspoken and independent woman," Hanrahan said of the baby's namesake. "The baby is feisty like she was. She comes from a long line of feisty women." Although Hanrahan has been out of the office, she has kept up-to-date on the issues. "I'vebeen watchingmeetings athome," Hanrahan said. "Sometimes it's hard to watch when you have the desire to be engaged in the issues." The mayor said she wished she was able to participate in the more ceremonial aspects of her job. SEE PEGEEN, PAGE 8 NATIONAL NEWS .Judents divided on assisted sii By JESSICA RIFFEL Aligator Writer jriffel@alligator.org Whether for constitutional or moral reasons, students are split over the issue of physician-assisted suicide. UF College Democrats follow their party and side with Oregon, arguing that a state has the ability to enact a law enabling physician-assisted suicide. College Republicans side with their party's conservative approach, contending that the federal government has the ability to control this medical issue. "The government, other people or even ourselves cannot decide when life should end." Kate Keeley Pro-life Alliance president But many leave party politics behind and struggle to decide where they stand on the controversial issue. "With most issues, I have a strong opinion, but with this I don't," said Sean Lebowitz, president of the Law School Democrats. "I just don't know." The Supreme Court heard the case adressing Oregon's 1997 Death with Dignity Act, which allows physician-assisted suicide, Oct. 5. The case resulted from Attomey General John Ashcroft's 2001 statement that Oregon's doctors would lose federal prescription privileges if they prescribed lethal doses of medications. Oregon is challenging Ashcroft's authority to regulate state law in front of the Supreme Court, in newly appointed Chief Justice Judge Roberts' first oral argument. SEE ASSIST, PAGE 8 Campus eats may go credit By DAVID COHEN Alligator Writer dcohen@alligator.org UF eateries may go "plastic" if officials decide to allow credit cards at on-campus dining locations in two moriths, though the switch might hike prices. UF officials are hesitant to allow students to pay for food with credit cards, citing the possibility of longer lines, student debts and increased food prices. UF Business Services Divison Director James Morgan said the newly built Sun Terrace, which houses four restaurants near the Health Science Center, is serving as a model in paying with credit cards. But Morgan said when customers use credit cards at the Sun Terrace, the transactions are slowing down the line. He said the credit-card machines use dial-up Internet to access the credit-card company databases, and the result is a Student 30-second to a minute wait Life time for approval. "It's taking longer than we had hoped," he said, adding the credit-card approval system will not be practical around campus at that speed. Debit-card payment is not being considered, Morgan said, because of the hassles of punching in a PIN number. Gator Dining representatives were not available for comment. Morgan said he should have enough information to make a decision within the next two months whether to allow customers to pay for food with credit cards all over campus. If all 13 Gat or Dining campus locations were allowed to accept credit cards, Morgan said it would cost UF an estimated $1 million in new cash registers, software and wiring. He added that food prices could increase up to 5 percent because credit-card companies charge a transaction fee. UF officials are considering possible problems with implementing credit card payment systems. Price hikes and long lines could deter customers, Morgan said.

4, ALLIGATOR U WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 19, 2005 rvisor of Elections resigns for semester-at-sea By DAVID COHEN Alligator Writer dcohen@aligator.org Student Government Supervisor of Elections Daniel Maland announced his resignation at Student Senate on Tuesday. "I'm the guy who brought you the digital disaster," Maland said jokingly, referring to the Fall election. However, he said the election had one of UF's highest Fall election turnout rates at 6,666. Maland will attend a University of Pittsburgh semester-at-sea program in which he will travel to Puerto Rico, Brazil, South Africa, India and China. Applications for supervisor are available in SG offices in the Reitz Union and are due Nov. 9. Maland said he would help train the next supervisor. In other Senate news Student Body Treasurer Lindsay Cosimi said many student organizations have not registered their clubs with the Student Activities Center for 2005-06, which makes them ineligible for SG funding. Clubs that are not registered include UF medical school and law school clubs and organizations within the Jewish Student Union and Hispanic Student Association. Asian American Student Union Chairwoman Sandy Chiu spoke to Senate about being told by the Budget & Appropriations Committee that her organization can only spend 50 percent of its special events budget on guest speakers for next year's Kaleidoscope event, which celebrates Asian American culture. Event speakers highlight Asian American issues that are not widely discussed at UF, Chiu said after the meeting. Chiu went before the committee Sunday and heard the news. However, the AASU, like all organizations, attends three meetings to determine its special-events budget. Committee Chairwoman Jackie Pace said this is in an attempt to diversify the AASU's programming. Graduate and Professional Student Caucus Chairman Christopher Eklund said his organization plans to upgrade UF's family-housing facilities, improve health care quality, increase the availability of academic resources and bridge the divide between graduate and professional students with the rest of the student body. "To put it simply, graduate students actively build the reputation and prestige of the university," he said. However, Eklund said he did not know where the majority of the funding for the project would come from. Senate President John Boyles appointed former Gator Party District D Senate candidate Richard Slaughter as Senate parliamentarian. Students to sex up By IVETTE MENDEZ Alligator Contributing Writer UF students will be having Sex on the Lawn today. Outside the Reitz Union at 10 a.m., Vox: Voices for Planned Parenthood will hold its thirdannual sex health education fair, Sex on the Lawn. The fair will include games, giveaways and free HIV testing. "The idea behind the fair is to educate the student body on sexual health and current issues in the reproductive policy (i.e. the abortion debate)," said Sara Hanson, the president of Vox. A representative, from Planned Parenthood will be available to answer questions and administer the free HIV tests on campus. "I think HIV testing is a sensitive issue for most students," Hanson said. Most students will prefer to go to the clinic instead of getting tested on campus, she said. Confidentiality of the tests is ensured in several ways. Educator Mike Amish and his staff will administer the tests with only one person in each of the two rooms at a time, said Kristen Lang, Vox secretary. Sexual health is a huge concern for everyone, especially for college students, she said. _. Vox Treasurer Jessica Ducey said students are afraid to ask sexual-health questions, and the fair presents the answers in a fun way. Hanson said On the organization i'V 53, wants to inform students on the changes happening in the Supreme Court. "We are just trying to raise awareness that even though John Roberts has been appointed, there is still another vacancy," she said. The organization has not taken any stance on who would be the best option for the open seat. The legislature needs to know how students feel on the issue, she said. The information on the Supreme Court will be at the table of current issues underneath the tent at the fair. Programs offer relief to women with pelvic floor pain THE DISORDER IS ASSOCIATED WITH PAINFUL SEX. By KIMBERLY GOUZ Alligator Contributing Writer She knew it was supposed to be painful the first time, but she didn't expect anything like this. "When I first started having sex, it hurt a lot, but I thought .the pain would eventually go away," she said. "It was my mom who told me that my situation wasn't normal." The UF graduate student, who wished to remain anonymous, lives with dyspareunia, a type of muscle pain in the lower abdomen associated with painful intercourse. For women with pelvic floor pain, discomfort ranges from painful intercourse or bowel movements to dull aches and persistent cramps. Because of its embarrassing nature, the topic is an uncomfortable one for her. "I don't llke talking about it, and I don'tfeel it is anyone's business," she said. But when her physical therapist asked her to come forward, she did, because she said she felt it was important that others know they are not alone. "Thank God I could confide in my mom, and now Iam getting help," she said. She is being treated by a physical therapist at ReQuest for Women, a local women's health clinic. Her therapist uses techniques such as biofeedback, electrical stimulation and massage, she said, to ease the pressure of her pelvic floor and to help her learn to dilate her vagina through stretching techniques. "It's still not my favorite thing to do, but I know the physical therapist now, and she makes me feel comfortable," she said. "The other thing is that now I have started to see results, and that is kind of exciting." Although she has only been undergoing treatment for two months, she said that she has seen a 90-percent improvement. "I'm lucky I have a really supportive boyfriend," she said "It's important that a guy realizes this problem is real, but if they stick by their girlfriend, then eventually she'll get better." Paula Bruce, a physical therapist and women's health specialist at ReQuest. for Women, said she is always amazed by how fast her patients improve. "I love treating pelvic pain PubliC because the women get better so HO _th quickly," Bruce said. "Physical therapy has been treating problems like this for many years, but it hasn't been common knowledge until recently." Bruce said half the battle is being able to teach women about their diagnosis. "Sometimes I don't even have to touch the patient, and by the next time they visit me they are already 25to 50-percent better," she said. "Often all it takes is a little education." Bruce said dyspareunia is only one kind of pelvic floor pain that can be treated with physical therapy. Another common diagnosis associated with pelvic pain is interstitial cystitis, a bladder disease that can result in frequent and painful urination. Interstitial cystitis is common among women who have had children because childbirthweakens the pelvic floor, Bruce said. "It is a muscle, just like any other muscle, and you need to exercise it," she said. Bruce teaches her patients how to control their bladders with kegel exercises. "You teach behavioral techniques," she said. "In these cases, the bladder has taken control of the brain, and we want to get the brain back in control of the body." Tejal Patel, a physical therapist at Shands, said that approximately 40 percent of American women suffer from pelvic pain, and not enough of them do something about it. These problems can be socially embarrassing, she noted, but you have to start somewhere if you want to get better, and this is a good place to start. "It's a shame that a lot of people don't know about treatments for pelvic pain," Patel said.

WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 19, 2005 0 ALLIGATOR, 5 Exhibition depicts lives, families of mentally ill By DONNA MITRANI Alligator Contributing Writer The "Nothing to Hide: Mental Illness in the Family" photo exhibition peers into the lives of the mentally ill and the families that care not just for, but about them. "I think it's great because you're getting the perspective of the family members. When somebody is diagnosed or misdiagnosed, it has a huge impact on the family." Gail Greenhunt Shands at UF social worker The exhibit consists of 21 black-and-white photographs, each of which is accompanied by first-person accounts of the caretaking family members. The project's authors, photographer Gigi Kaeser and interviewers Jean J. Beard and Peggy Gillespie, said they hoped that by creating the project, they could help change negative stereotypes surrounding mental illnesses. Gail Greenhunt, a social worker at Shands at UF, heard about the exhibit from a co-worker and went to view it Monday morning. Greenhunt said she enjoyed the exhibit, especially because it included the comments and experiences of family members in their own words. "I think it's great because you're getting the perspective of the family members," Greenhunt said. "When somebody is diagnosed or misdiagnosed, it has a huge impact on the family." According to the National Institute of Mental Health Web site, one in five adults suffers from a diagnosable mental disorder.

6, ALLIGATOR N WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 19, 2005 Easy business Wal-Mart will jump-start East Gainesville economy can finally get a haircut, cash our checks, fill our gas tanks and buy fertilizer all at the same place, while eating an apple too-. A 204,000-square-foot Wal-Mart Supercenter will be built in East Gainesville despite some nearby residents' protests. The store is one of two that company officials originally planned to bring to our area. The second center was to be built in Northwest Gainesville, but the City Commission has repeatedly rejected the plan. We're glad the company decided to build a store on Waldo Road rather than stick to its original threat that it would build at both locations or none -at all. This corporate machine stands to do what city officials couldn't: jump-start East Gainesville's economy. When both projects were attached, this benefit was overshadowed by objections to the northwest project. By separating the two,-we can finally talk about one without drudging up all the controversy tied to the other. For years, residents have protested the northwest location because they worried the store would pollute the source of Hogtown Creek and hurt local businesses. But East Gainesville has none of those issues. Some opponents of the northwest store actually support the east store. Thus far, complaints have come from nearby residents who worry about the store causing increased traffic and decreased property value. This would be a problem no matter which businesses moved to east Gainesville. And because.for years the goal has been to increase business in the area, their arguments lack any weight. These residents live next to a commercial property. It's unfortunate, but it's unavoidable. It would be nice for Wal-Mart to address the concerns of those living in residential developments, but it's in no way necessary. Of course, increased traffic is a problem both residential and commercial developments will share. Wal-Mart is a rich empire, so it might actually do the job better than another business. And trying to change the property's zoning for one's personal comfort just won't happen. So sticking a Wal-Mart in that area is as good as putting any business there. In fact, it's probably better. Wal-Mart is unique in its ability to survive in economically depressed regions. It's cheap, so it attracts everyone from surrounding areas, and it sells everything, so it's a one-stop shop. However, other businesses can function in its shadow. While Wal-Mart might push out local businesses in areas that already thrive, it attracts stores in areas that have nothing. Wal-Mart's business practices might be a little shady, but when we look at this situation purely from the perspective of East Gainesville, its impending existence seems incredibly beneficial. So it makes sense that city officials are all for the project. By pushing Wal-Mart to separate the plans for the two stores, they've also further defined two very different .issues. a l i gindpdent florida Mike Gimignani EDITOR Eva Kis MANAGING EDITOR Emily Yehle OPINIONS EDITOR Tom Durrenberger, Scott Guiton, Andrew Meyer EDITORIAL BOARD The Aliaor enco rages comments foe, readers.

Opinions ALLIGATOR www.alligator.org/opinions MW Democrats need ideas to gain power f the Democratic Party wants to gain power in the 2006 off-year elections and beyond, it'll have to steal a page from Notre Dame and "wake up the echoes." It's a truism that politicians "campaign in poetry and govern in prose," and that's fine. But during the last decade or so, Democrats have shown a tendency to campaign in the poetry of an angst-ridden 13-year-old girl and then act surprised when no one lets them govern. It's a bad habit the Democrats are going to have to break, because this party finally has an opportunity to make real strides and take back the reins of government. To botch this chance would be fatal. But this shouldn't be so hard, we protest. After all, the incumbents have proven thoroughly incapable of competent governance. An unnecessary war in Iraq that still might have been a force for good has been so blemished that it's nearly impossible to foresee a positive conclusion. The perpetrator of the Sept. 11, 2001 atrocity remains alive and free with no prospect of his capture on the horizon. On the domestic front, a Republican-dominated government has done nothing to advance the country's state. A recent NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll indicated only 2 percent of African Americans approve of President Bush. The Klan has a higher approval rate among African Americans. "Family value" conservatives Tom DeLay and Bill Frist have become embroiled in scandal, and the Republican Party is fighting itself on a wide swath of issues. So why should this be so difficult for the Democrats? Because it turns out that the American public actually expects its opposition party to offer something more than even the most well-deserved criticism. They expect their opposition party to present ideas. Democrats need to present a vision to the American peoAndrew Bare The Bare Truth letterseaiiigator.org ple, an ideal of what a Democratic America would be. Pointing out the moral and intellectual bankruptcy of this Republican government isn't going to be adequate; the situation was just as clear in November 2004, and it didn't stop the public from voting in droves for the status quo. This is where the echoes come in. What should make the current state of the Democratic "message" so infuriating to rank-and-file Democrats is that their party used to burst with ambitious ideas and themes. It was a Democrat who spoke to a shattered nation, told the public, "the only thing we have to fear is fear itself" and embarked upon an extraordinary New Deal that sustained the country through the Great Depression. It was a Democrat who stood before the American people in the dark days following Sputuik and made an incredible promise: This country would reach the moon before the end of the decade. And it was Democratic administrations that fulfilled his pledge. It was a Democrat who declared a War on Poverty and stated that America must become a "Great Society." Not all of these ideas worked. Many failed, and miserably But they were ideas. They were an attempt to create something more, something better. They were dreams, sometimes inspired, sometimes irrational. But history reserves its strongest ovations for the irrational dreamers, and the American public reserves its votes for those with a vision. Andrec Bare is a journalisrm senior.

WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 19,2005M ALLIGATOR, 7 Scientific world needs to share genome I found the Monday column involving the avian flu very informative. However, if Matt Melone had done more research into the virus, he would have discovered that avian flu has thus far claimed victims who are either young, old or have weak immune systems. Comparing it to the plague of the Middle Ages is'an overstatement. Concerning the release of the Spanish flu genome, I find it difficult to believe a terrorist would use it as a weapon. There are many lethal viruses that are much iore available to a terrorist, such as smallpox. The manufacture of a virus s more complicated than Melone said. Large amounts of capital and knowledge would be needed, which I doubt Osama bin Laden has access to. Sharing of information in the scientific world is critical to solve problems. The release of the Spanish flu genome is essential to better understand and prepare for the avian flu. Theodore Box 4AG WebMail decision needed student voice Monday's editorial about faults in the transition to UTF's new e-mail forwarding policy was spot on, but it fails to address the cause of the problem. The decision to end students' ability to forward their GatorLink e-mail was made by the Infonnation Technology Advisory Comnittee in the Office of Information Technology. ITAC is a committee made entirely of deans and administrators; there is no student representation. Student representatives on this universitywide board would help ensure ITAC's decisions don't adversely affect students, who rely on technology for their educational activities. More than 20 university committees have student representatives who sit with university decision makers and voice student concerns. If students can guide decisions on everything from housing to affirmative action, why is infonnation technology any different? Students deserve a voice. We deserve a seat on ITAC. Gavin Baker President, Florida Free Culture 2LS Facts on abortion always stay the same People talk about ignorance as though they have all the answers. They talk about their opinions as though they were facts. Let me enlighten you folks: A mother is a mother, a fetus is a fetus, and a baby is a baby. How you interpret the physical reality of conception, pregnancy, birth and life is your own opinion; it is not based on fact but on emotion and personal belief. The reason people disagree about abortion is because of the differences in their views, not differences in fact. There's no discrepancy between our reahties; we're just all reacting to the same facts differently, and that's what's really human.

By ELIZABETH HILLAKER Alligator Contributing Writer A new UF project is combatting tennites and the complaints about the people who kill them. A $150,000 grant to the UP Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences will establish the Orkin Termite Training Facility on the university's Apopka campus. The facility will train students, government agents and industry professionals how to correctly kill termites, said Faith Oi, UP professor and assistant extension scientist. Sixty-five percent of disciplinary action inthe pest-control industry is termite-service related, Oi said. When pest-control companies have to re-do a job for free because of a complaint, 90 percent of the costs are from termite service. A similar facility in Oklahoma caused the number of complaints there to plummet, she said. The first phase of the facility is projected to cost $300,000. Construction will begin in 2006, and it should UF open for Administration training by tius time next year, she said. Someone's house is not the place to learn what to do, said Martha Craft, an Orkin employee. "They need to be properly trained before they go out in the field," Craft added.

Income, legal constraints may influence decision ASSIST, from page 1 Students' uncertainty arises not only because of issues concerning state vs. federal jurisdiction but also because many moral arguments exist for and against assisted suicide. The Pro-Life Alliance opposes assisted suicide, and president Kate Keeley said the federal government should step in to protect its citizens. "The government, other people or even ourselves cannot decide when life'should end," she said. Conservatives also argue the slippery-slope theory. "It's starting a trend," said Matt Dean, executive director of the College Republicans. "It will become something that is more accessible." However, Ray Moseley, associate professor in the Bioethics, Law and Medical Professionalism program in UF's College of Medicine disagrees. "The slippery-slope theory doesn't hold a lot of weight for me because there are safeguards in place," Moseley said. Two doctors must determine that a patient's life expectancy is less than six months and that he or she is mentally competent. To complete the process, the patient must make an initial request to the doctor and wait 15 days before making a written request observed by at least two witnesses. The patient must also be advised of treatment and pain-management alternatives, and the doctor can only prescribe the drugs, not administer them. "It's not like they're just letting anyone commit suicide," said Stephanie Sims, College Democrats president. "I support the law with these regulations in place." But Moseley pointed out one ethical downfall of physician-assisted suicide. He said patients who either don't have funds to pay for ainrelieving treatment or don't wish to deplete their savings might choose suicide over treatment. "My concern with this issue is that if we have the current medical system, people will make their decision of treatment or suicide based on their financial situation," Moseley said. He described a possible situation in which a grandmother might choose suicide over treatment or nursing home care that would deplete her savings. "She might be tempted to choose death to make sure her children get the money," Moseley said. "It may sound harsh, but I know people who would make that decision in a heartbeat." Moseley said that under the current medical system, the rich have no incentive to choose suicide because they can pay for pain-management treatment, but the poor more likely would request assisted suicide. "I would not be for someone killing themselves for financial reasons," Moseley said. He said the United States needs a system in which citizens can get reasonable access to basic healthcare so that high prices of medical care will not overinfluence patient's decisions regarding suicide. Although Shands HealthCare spokesman Lance Skelly said he would not comment on Oregon hospitals' assisted suicide policy, he said, "We're in the business of keeping people alive." The Supreme Court's decision is expected in July.

WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 19, 2005 0 ALLIGATOR, 9 Students turn holiday into homeless fundraiser By NADIA PAYAN Alligator Contributing Writer Natasha El-Sergany has spent the last two weeks hungry. Since Oct. 4, El-Sergany and other Muslim students have fasted from sunrise to sunset in observance of the holy month of Ramadan, an experience she said she finds rewarding. "Ramadan here is actually more involved with the community than it is at home," said El-Sergany, a junior majoring in English from West Palm Beach. The 29 days of Ramadan, the ninth month of the Islamic calendar, and the accompanying tradition of fasting are intended to guide Muslims to concentrate on their faith.

She also said students fasting daily should be careful to eat only to their appetite once they do eat again.

"It's supposed to make us feel what the less fortunate feel," Ishaq said. "It's rejuvenating." By CHRISTINA SIMAK Alligator Writer csimak@aligator.org Islam on Campus is combining faith withifundraising Thursday. The UF student group aims to bring understanding of hunger to non-Muslim students through fasting as part of a fundraiser for Gainesville's St. Francis House, a local shelter for the homeless. The Ramadan Fast-a-Thon, in its third year at UF, is a national program that raises money for soup kitchens by asking businesses to pledge a certain donation for every non-Muslim student who agrees to fast for one day. "You can show people pictures of the homeless and say, 'They're hungry,' but unless you know what it feels like, it doesn't hit you as much," said program coordinator Omar Ishaq. For. 29 days of the Muslim holy month, Ramadan, which began Oct. 4, Muslims don't eat or drink from sunrise to sunset. You can show people pictures of the homeless and say, 'They're hungry, but unless you know what it feels like, it doesn't hit you as much." Omar Ishaq Ramadan Fast-a-Thon coordinator The program begins at 6:58 a.m. and 'concludes with a donated dinner for all participants in the Stephen C. O'Connell Center at 6:58 p.m. Last year, Islam on Campus raised $1,000 with 250 participants. This year, Ishaq said he exat campus eateries 'maxed out;' debt concerns ended credit-card use decisions, that's really going to be a Gator P1 Dining decision." Morgan said students and faculty N d with have consistently asked to pay with plashe systic for convenience sake, but the "ease" of it may cause longer lines. rations "Most of our (food) locations are it card maxed out now," he said. "You couldn't er than do more business if you brought in more d paypeople." uld be Morgan said one of the reasons there are so many ATM machines is that UF ldberg wants customers to use cash. trying UF's Gator Dining program, which us dingives 10.4 percent of its revenue to UF, is unique to other businesses, he said. every "I think for most businesses or compaudents nies, it's almost a must for them to have get it credit cards," he said. "Nobody's really suffering (here)." have Morgan said after Gator 1 Cards could ng stube set up to pay for food, credit card acceptance was halted to curb student part of debt. )artof dbt.Danny h .hitis /Alligator service "We're not here to make it an inconve-n Gits Anignto terms nience, but we want to do the right thing Students try to find cash while waiting in line to buy food at Wendy's in the Reitz Union on ke the for [students], too," he said.

"We have a lot of interest because this event helps people to understand hunger in a different way," he said. Ishaq said the issue is particularly important in Alachua County, one of Florida's poorest, because jobs are limited, especially to residents with no college education competing with graduating students. "When we see a bum, our first reaction is, 'Get a job,' but there is a real problem here," he said. "This program is a way for the UF student body and administration to take a stance on hunger in Gainesville." Ishaq said the dinner will feature speakers from the St. Francis House, where previous participants in the event decided to volunteer after the fast.

S Orts WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 19, 2003 Leak, Gtors try to revitalize sinking offense *1 MEYER CRITICAL OF UF'S ing a step backward for a program OFFENSIVE LINE. that many expected would end up in the top 10. "You've got to regroup and reBy ANDREW ABRAMSON ain our com osure" Leak said Alligator Staff Writer aabramson@alligator.org If Urban Meyer hopes to revitalize the Gators, he'll have to do it with bags under his eyes. Meyer admitted he hasn't slept much since UF fell to Louisiana State 21-17 on Saturday. And his sleep mirrors quarterback Chris Leak's production in UF's two losses this year -nonexistent. "You've got to regroup and regain your composure." Chris Leak UF quarterback "Losses are horrible," Meyer said. "Especially when you invest so much .and we invested a lot in that last game: That was a lot of investment by everybody involved." After an off-season full of promise and hope, two ESPN.com analysts are now predicting the Gators to finish the season in the Music CityBowl in Nashville -a bowl game that occurs on Dec. 30. It would be UF's second consecutive non-January bowl game, markg y p1 ,r "The main thing is not to panic and keep playing." On Tuesday, Meyer spoke to the media for the first time since an emotional press conference following Saturday's loss. With most of the questions directed at UF's offensive failures, Meyer defended Leak on more than one occasion while criticizing UF's offensive line. Leak completed just 11 of 30 passes for 107 yards on Saturday -his worst performance as a starter at UF, but Meyer put to rest any speculation that t-ue freshman Josh Portis could compete for any of Leak's playing time. "Chris Leak is our quarterback," Meyer said. "To put the whole blame on him is absolutely not fair. It's everyone involved." After last year's breakout season when Leak led the Southeastern Conference in most of the major passing categories, the junior currently ranks just fifth in passing yards per game and total offense, and sixth in pass efficiency. Meyer and offensive coordinator Dan Mullen completely revised the offense in the off-season in an at. tempt to try to mirror what they did SEE FOOTBALL, PAGE 18 Tim Casey / Alligator Staff UF quarterback Chris Leak pitches the ball in front of LSU safety Jessie Daniels (31) during the first quarter of the Gators' 21-17 loss to the Tigers on Saturday in Baton Rouge, La. UF young, taleOn O te By NICK ZACCARDI Alligator Writer Carolyn Peck has found the fountain 'of youth, and it's in Tennessee. Peck brought in an unprecedented six-member freshman class, including four from the Volunteer state. The freshman class, a talented group of players who are more plentiful in number than UF's senior class, is ranked in the top 10 by multiple recruiting services and has an opportunity to help bring the Gators back to the NCAA Tournament. "I believe that [the freshmen] are going to make a huge contribution to this team and to the success of the team this year," said senior Sarah Lowe, who will compete with a pair of freshmen for playing time at point guard. "They're going to make mistakes. At the same time, they're here for a reason and they're here to play at that level of competition." Four freshmen -Sha Brooks, Kim Critton, Marshae Dotson and Jessica Jackson -have been practicing since Friday. Two others, LaToya Bullard and Brooke Cornish, continue to nurse injuries. Brooks and Critton should push seniors Lowe and Danielle Santos for SEE WHOOPS, PAGE 20 Two ways out of Nashville he sun is setting a little earlier. The air is growing colder. And judging by the violent debate over UF's football fate, I'd say it's mid-October. And I don't even have to use a calendar. It's never too early to talk bowl predictions. With the Gators in free fall, some have UF pegged for an appearance in Nashville for the Music City Bowl on Dec. 30 And that isn't all too ridiculous. Considering the parity in the SEC this season, UF (5-2, 3-2 SEC) really needs a win against Florida State to solidify a spot in at least a New Year's Eve game. Anyone longing for an Outback Bowl yet? UF could still make it to the SEC title game if it defeats Georgia and the Bulldogs win against Auburn, but the way I see it, the Gators have two ways out of Nashville. 1. Bench Chris Leak: Timid at best, clue-. less at worst, Leak has settled one of the hottest preseason topics. Can Chris Leak r un the spread-option? Coach Urban Meyer probably heard the question in Bryan App his sleep as he made App-etite his summertime for Receptions rounds of boosters' bapp@alligator.org meetings and press conferences. The answer: NO. I tried to defend the guy as long as I could. First, it was a learning curve. Later, it was the offensive line. Then, it was a secret injury. Now, I admit I was wrong. Leak's ineptitude in Meyer's system transcends his 11-for-30, 107-yard stat line against LSU on Saturday. He has happy feet. He's not reading the defense properly on blitzes. And he's still locking onto receivers. Believe it or not, Chad Jackson and Dallas Baker aren't the only players on the team with hands. SEE APP, PAGE 18 Total offense per game 1.

18, ALLIGATOR a WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 19, 2005 Win against Georgia could put Gators back on track Top Top Week 6 performances: APP, from page 17 What's the point of even putting a Kenneth Tookes, Gavin Dickey, Tate Casey or Kyle Morgan on the field if Leak won't even look at them? Mistakes like these cannot be attributed to any injury. You don't throw into triple coverage because of a sore shoulder. Leak is about as comfortable in the spread as Bernie Machen at Mons Venus. FOOT BALL, from page 17 successfully at Utah. This meant installing a spread offense while calling on Leak to run the option at times -a tall task for a quarterback that has thrived in a traditional vertical attack. But this also meant that UF's offensive line, which was among the best in the SEC would have to learn a complex zone-blocking scheme. The line is giving up the most sacks in the conference while ranking next to last in the SEC in penalties per game. And as his decision-making continues to regress, I'm not sure if he ever will be comfortable. .Is it a coincidence that Meyer nearly broke down in tears on Saturday after being asked about Leak's performance? He's a smart guy. He knows Leak can't do what he's asking of him. But he's also an extremely competitive guy. It seems as though Meyer's loyalty to the one-time All-SEC quarterback is clashing with his will to win. Still, Meyer just won't pull the trigger, laying to rest any rumors of freshman Josh Portis assuming the starting role on Tuesday. 2. -K.I.S.S: It's time to quit trying to stuff square pegs into round holes and just pull out the old jigsaw. It's time for Meyer to swallow his pride and dumb down his offense. Put Leak tinder center more. Throw to the tight ends. And where are the slants, and hitches when the defense blitzes? It's time for the offense to "When you don't have time to set your feet and throw it's just a different ball game," Leak said. While Meyer and senior center Mike Degory said the line showed improvement against LSU and allowed DeShawn Wynn to become a viable running threat, it is still struggling overall. "Obviously we've got far too many sacks, far too much pressure, so it's a combination of issues," Meyer said. "It's a little bit slower than we had hoped." It doesn't help UF's offensive woes that a receiver has not stepped up in the absence quit trying to be so damn fancy and just line up and play football -less lateral and more vertical movement. Watching the average UF drive is like witnessing Bob Huggins take a field sobriety test, for God's sake. Of course, the spread needs to be installed, but slowly over time and when the Gators have the personnel to do so. Leak can't run the offense. Meyer refuses to .sit him. Something has got to give.

WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 19, 2005 U ALLIGATOR, 19 UF VOLLEYBALL S"op--ho^mores~* fill blocker void N THE 2 K'S STEP INTO KEY ROLES. By BRYAN JONES Alligator Writer There was really only one question that would decide whether the UF volleyball team would be a legitimate championship contender this season. How would the Gators fill the void left by departed middle blockers Michelle Chatman and Sherri Williams? The -answer: I Kisya Killingsworth and Kari Klinkenborg. It's an answer, however, that has not always been so apparent. While Killingsworth and Klinkenborg are natural middle blockers, both spent most of their freshman seasons playing other positions -primarily right-side hitter -as UP struggled to replace then-injured right-side hitter Amber McCray. It was tough enough for the duo to spend their first season adjusting to a new position, but being asked to make the transition back to the middle blocker position this year p roved to be even more difficult, Kllingsworth said. Initially, both struggled to adapt to the intricacies of the mddle blocking position, which Coach Mary Wise has said is one of the most difficult positions to learn in collegiate volleyball. Since the start of Southeastern Conference play, however, it would seem someone has lit a fire under the sophomore tandem. Killingsworth has become one of the Gators' top scoring options and has provided UF with amenacing presence in the middle. "What Kisya has done is, where a year ago she was nowhere on anybody's scouting report, she is definitely on her opponent's scouting report," Wise said. After a weekend home stand earlier this year where Killingsworth amassed 27 kills over two matches against Tennessee and South Carolina, she was honored as the SEC Player of the Week. "[Killingsworth] is just a firecracker," sophomore Amber McCray said. "When she goes off, she goes off.". Meanwhile, Klinkenborg has been the-steady contributor Wise has needed her to be. "We tell all our players 'Be patient until your time comes, and then when your time comes, take full advantage of it.' And that is what Kari is doing." And when opponents try to zone in on UF s more notable scorers, Klinkenborg can make them pay the price. Just ask the Georgia Bulldogs, against whom Klinkenborg dropped 13 kills and five blocks earlier this season. The progression of thle middles may be the difference between an early exit in the NCAA Tournament and UF's eighth trip to the Final Four. I "To win in collegiate women's volleyball, you have to have a presence in the middle," Wise said. "It's one thing to be out there. It's another thing to score points. Kisya and Kar are scoring oints for us on a consistent basis." "Copyrighted Material Syndicated Content Available from Commercial News Providers" Deadline is previous Thursday.

20, ALLIGATOR U WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 19, 2005 K~pt SHORT RETURN: Starting defensive end Ray McDonald returned from his knee injury against LSU, but not for very long. He made it all of two plays, the first of which he jumped offsides. "The next play I kind of limped around a little bit then came off the field, so I d say I was 0-for-2," he said. McDonald said it didn't feel like he wanted it to, so he pulled himself out of the game. He said he should be back to 100 percent for Georgia Oct. 29. "It's hard on me," McDonald said. "I hate sitting, watching my teammates go out there and give it their all when I know I can't really play well. I'm looking real forward to next week at Georgia." INFLAMED: Despite previous reports that Leak has received cortisone shots prior to the last two games, on Tuesday UF sports information director Steve McClain said Leak has actually been taking an anti-inflammatory shot. INJURY UPDATE: Starting linebackers Brandon Siler and Todd McCullough both missed practice Tuesday with minor ankle and knee injuries, respectively. Meyer said they won't practice this week, but should be fine for Georgia. Siler came off the field in a boot.

"She has definitely stepped on the court bringing a lot of energy." Carolyn Peck UF women's basketball coach "She has definitely stepped on the court bringing a lot of energy," Peck said. "She has a lot of basketball knowledge and is savvy on the court." Added Santos, "Sha has really done a good job in the preseason of getting ready and getting to know what to expect for this upcoming year." Brooks said that her work ethic in practice is meant to spur on her more experienced competition. "I hope to push them really hard in practice so that it will make them better defenders in the games," she said. Critton, meanwhile, may be the most athletic of the newcomers. "She has one of the highest vertical leaps on the team," Peck said. "She's a pure athlete." At power forward, Dotson is suited as a post player. "She has the ability to shoot the ball facing up, three-point range," Peck said. "She also has a knack for the ball, especially in the rebotunding area." Jackson comes in as the tallest newcomer on the team at 6-foot-3, trying to pick up the massive void at center left by Vanessa Hayden two years ago. The Colliervlle, Tenn., native's reach stretches farther than 6-foot7 assistant coach Ichael Peck's does. "We're going to look for her to be a presence from scoring, as well as blocking shots and rebounding," Carolyn Peck said. Bullard's hamstring injury lingers, and she has not been cleared to practice yet. "I'm not focused on basketball because of my poor hamstring," Bullard said. "I'm focused on walking straight. It's just nagging me." Cornish had surgery to repair a stress fracture in her left foot when she arrived in Gainesville. The injury caused her to miss her entire senior season in high school. Just recently, she switched from a cast to a boot, enabling her to do bike exercises. "It still hurts, but it's getting a lot better" Cornish said. "With the rust, it will be a little difficult [coming back]." Kim Klement/ Alligator Sha Brooks shows off her shooting ability at Madness 2005 on Friday.
