ROSA PARKS 1913-2005
Nation honors
civil rights icon
By JEFF SIRMONS
Alligator Staff Writer
jsirmons@alligator.org
Rosa Parks was "the catalyst that brought the
civil rights struggle to the next level," a UF law
professor said.
Michelle Jacobs, who studies race theory, said
Rosa Parks' death is a loss for the younger genera-
tion.
"It's those old soldiers who make the link be-
tween finished work and unfin-
ished work," Jacobs said.
Parks died Monday from com-
pounding medical complications.
She was 92.
Democratic U.S. Rep. John Lewis
from Georgia agreed with Jacobs.
"As people get older and
Parks people pass, it becomes more
and more difficult to have that sort of firsthand
knowledge," said Lewis, who first met Parks as
a 17-year-old student and activist. "It becomes a
little more difficult to pass it on."
Lewis, who once headed the Student
Nonviolent Coordinating Committee, added that
the social challenges of today persistent racial
gaps in poverty, education and wealth, among
others highlight the continued need for activists
and teachers to honor Parks' spirit.
"Her life should inspire a generation yet un-
born to stand up," he said.
Parks is one of a handful of civil rights figures,
along with Martin Luther King Jr; and Malcolm X,

New abilities
Learning center
opens in Spring
By DIANA MAZZELLA
Alligator Writer
dmazzella@alligator.org
UF students with disabilities often
take tests in a room also used for stor-
age which houses computers, a Braille
embosser and a microwave along with
other technology.
All this is expected to change in the
next few months.
About two-thirds of the ground
floor of Reid Hall will become a new
disability center by Spring, said John
Denny, Disability Resources director in
the Dean of Students Office.
The renovation project plans in-
clude six offices, five individual testing
rooms, one large testing room, a medi-
um-sized testing room and a technol-
ogy lab that includes two individual
rooms, he said.
The renovations have cost UF about
$530,000 to date. Denny said it will
have nearly four times the space the
facility has now.
Three disabled parking spaces and
a ramp for wheelchair accessibility
also will be added outside one of the-
entrances, he said.
"I think this is going to be a lot more
welcoming environment to our stu-
dents," Denny said. "It's a new chapter
in Disability Resources for sure."
It also could be an incentive for dis-
abled students to attend UP, he said.
When Denny saw Florida State
University's Student Disability
Resource Center, he saw some ideas
he used in the proposal to UF's provost

Judge in Machen lawsuit resigns from law school board
By JUSTIN RICHARDS
Alligator Writer
jrichards@alligator.org
Citing his concern about a perceived con-
flict of interest, the judge who dismissed a
lawsuit against UF President Bernie Machen
last week resigned from a Levin College of
Law advisory board Tuesday.
Circuit Judge Robert E. Roundtree Jr. dis-
closed his UF connection to Machen's accuser
via fax Monday, three days after it appeared in
the Alligator.
"You're supposed to do it before you actu-
ally sit in a hearing, not after you've made a
ruling," said Charles Grapski, the UF instruc-
tor who sued Machen. "Had I known that at
the time, we might have asked for a different
judge. But without that knowledge, we didn't
have the ability to even ask the question."
Grapski filed a lawsuit Oct. 5 alleging that
Machen disobeyed state public records laws.
Roundtree, then a member of the advisory
board for the law school's Center on Children
and Families, heard the case Thursday.
Machen's wife, Chris, serves on the same
committee.
U F However, the
Administration board has not met
since March, center
director Barbara Woodhouse said.
Board members meet about once a year for
half a day, and they receive no compensation.
Woodhouse said Roundtree's place on the
board was no longer appropriate anyway, as he
moved from family to civil court in January.
"Judge Roundtree .was an excellent fam-
ily-court judge, and we were sorry to lose him
from our advisory board," she said.
Roundtree wrote in his letter of resignation
that as a civil-court judge, he receives many
cases involving UP.

Popular Phillips Center ticket subsidy low on funds
By DAVID COHEN
Alligator Writer
dcohen@alligator.org
The money to fund cheaper stu-
dent tickets at the Phillips Center
for Performing Arts is running out,
the director told the Student Senate
on Tuesday night.
Michael Blachly, the center di-
rector, thanked Senate for subsidiz-
ing student tickets for shows since
Summer.
Student So far 3,860
Government students have
used $96,190 of
SG's $115,000
Summer 2005 subsidy to attend the
center's plays and concerts for the
discounted price of $10 a seat.
Blachly asked Senate to expand
the subsidy soon.
"I cannot thank you enough," he
said of the program. "It's an incred-
ible tribute to you."
Also during the meeting, Senate
voted to give the group Helping
Every Little Person $395 for fu-
ture arts and crafts sessions with
preschool students. The group
adopted Small World Day Care, a
low-funded private organization in
Gainesville, and brings students to
hold activities with the children.
The group came to Senate with
a special request totaling $745 but
Senate agreed with an amend-
ment by Sen. Kevin Bacon and
Sen. Jackie Pace to remove $350 for
markers, crayons, paper and other
supplies. Bacon and Pace argued
that the supplies were not directly
benefiting UF students, which they
cited as the primary purpose of the
money that would be allocated.
Senate also voted to give Human
Rights Awareness on Campus
$1,340. The group helps with AIDS
Awareness Week.
The special request, which does
not require a second hearing, in-
cluded a $130 line for newspaper
advertisements. Some senators
asked whether or not the group
was told which campus-distributed
newspaper to advertise in.
Allocations Chairman Jason
Lutin said it was up to the group
to decide where the advertisement
should go.
The subject was brought up
because of a September executive
order issued by Student Body
President Joe Goldberg prohibit-
ing all SG agencies from advertis-
ing in the Alligator. The order also
strongly discouraged all SG-funded
organizations from advertising in
the Alligator.
Budget & Appropriations
Chairwoman Pace said she will
resign next week because she needs
to apply for graduate school before
studying abroad next semester.
"It's just time for me to focus
on other things," she said after the
meeting.
Senate President John Boyles
announced that the Nov. 8 regular
Senate meeting will be held at the
Levin College of Law and that the
dean of the school will speak with
senators.

STUDENT LIFE
Professors keep quiet about accreditation results
By STEPHEN MAGRUDER
Alligator Writer
smagruder@alligator.org
Few faculty members in the UF College of
Journalism and Communications were willing
to comment Tuesday on a report recommend-
ing the college's reaccreditation, despite ten-
sions between the dean and faculty.
The college was found in compliance with
eight of nine standards, failing to comply with
"mission, governance and administration."
The report praised the college's courses,
facilities, faculty and students, but cited "an
abiding and possibly intractable breach" be-
tween Dean Terry Hynes and faculty.
More than 20 faculty members said they
"experienced retribution from the dean or
feared it if they displeased her," the report
stated.
Of the 10 professors contacted for comment
Tuesday, none supported that statement.
Advertising department chairman John
Sutherland was unavailable, but an e-mail
sent Thursday to his undergraduates stated he
was pleased with the team's report, describing
the college as "one of the best in the nation."
Professors Cory Armstrong, Justin Brown,
Linda Hon, Belio Martinez and Jennifer
Robinson declined to comment.
Telecommunications department chairman
David Ostroff said he was pleased by the report.
Ostroff said Hynes has made it a priority
to balance the needs of graduates and under-
graduates, an issue with which similar col-
leges around the country have struggled.
"I think she's had a vision for where the
college is going," he said.
Hynes is away on an accreditation survey
and could not be reached for comment.
"Through the years it's very com-
mon to be found in non-compli-
ance of one or two."
Doug Anderson
Accreditation committee chairman
Accreditation committee chairman Doug
Anderson, who will review the report in
March, said colleges suited for reaccreditation
rarely comply with every standard.
"Through the years it's very common to
be found in non-compliance of one or two,"
he said.
The most frequent standards that colleges
fail to meet often are diversity and scholar-
ship, he said, but it's not uncommon to be
found in non-compliance with governance
and administration.
This-was also the first time the Accrediting
Council on Education in Journalism and Mass
Communications, the organization that sent a
six-member team to UF last week to compile
the report, used a new set of nine standards to
evaluate the college.
While courses in Ostroff's department,
which emphasize broadcast techniques in ra-
dio and television, typically don't have over-
crowding problems like others in the college,
Ostroff said his students like any others at
UF -- could benefit from more equipment.
"Nobody ever has enough equipment,
whether they're in academics or CBS," he said.
UF was the first of about 25 journalism and
communication colleges to be visited by repre-
sentatives for reaccreditation. Nearly all pass
the test, Anderson said,
"Very, very seldom is it that a program does
not get-reaccredited," he said.
Hispanic Communicators Association makes comeback
* BOOMING FIELD LACKS
HISPANICS, LEADERS SAY.
By DAPHNE CHARLES
Alligator Contributing Writer
After being inactive for nearly a
year, the Hispanic Communicators
Association has returned to campus.
Their return comes at a time when a
growing number of journalism jobs
are putting an emphasis on hiring a
diverse staff, according to staff mem-
bers of the UF College of Journalism
and Communications.
The association was left without
a leader for most of last Fall and
Spring, but Marisel Chavez is now
at the reins as president and plans
to use the group to emphasize the
importance of diversity in the com-
munications workforce. -
Hispanic Student Association
President Katrina Ruiz- asked
Chavez if she was interested in
reviving the organization by becom-
ing president, and Chavez said she
readily accepted the responsibil-
ity. Ruiz was the communicators
association president in 2004 and is
working with Chavez to help get the
group back in motion.
Chavez said the number of
Hispanic advertising, public rela-
tions, journalism, telecommunica-
tions and communications. medi-
ums are exploding,
especially in
Miami and Los Angeles. A recent
internship showed her there is still.
room for advancement.
She interned at a Hispanic agenti:
and nobced a lot :'f the people w ork-
ing then? were not Hi.panic
"The held is exploding, but the
amount of Hispanics
Student who reach high ranks
and fill positions is
not growing as fast,"
Chavez said.
She said she believes the lack
of Hispanics in communications is
due to the need for more Hispanic
individuals to enter communica-
tions programs and the need for
more Hispanic individuals to apply
to colleges.
The association plans to do a ser-
vice project this semester to speak to
local high school and middle school
students about the Hispanic experi-
ence in their respective programs.
Adviser. of the Hispanic
Communicators Association Juan-
Carlos Molleda said the purpose of
the organization is to educate.
Molleda said the organization
helps its members understand how
the industry is growing and to know
who the leaders of the industry
are. It also serves as a medium for
Hispanic industry leaders to come
to UF and advise prospective future
leaders in communications.
"From the time I became ad-
viser, I always asked them to be
passionate and take it seriously,"
he said.
Molleda .said any ambitious
student who wants to be a leader
in journalism and communications
should learn about the needs, ex-
pectations and issues of concern
for diverse groups.
. "One of the things we need to
change in the university is believ-
ing a Hispanic association or black
association or gay and lesbian as-
sociation are only for the people
who belong to these groups," he
said.
Chavez said she encourages
all individuals to come to the first
meeting today at 5 p.m. in Weimer
Hall Room 2066.

* THE DISEASE CAN DESTROY
GROUPS OF DOGS EASILY.
By JORIE SCHOLNIK
Alligator Contributing Writer
When Kim Caruthers hears a dog
cough, she gasps, holds her breath
and prays the dog only swallowed the
wrong way. She knows it only takes
one dog to cause devastation.
Caruthers knows the canine influ-
enza virus, commonly called canine
flu, all too well. The virus once caused
an epidemic at the Sun-Kiva Kennel in
Gainesville, which she owns.
Caruthers went beyond the call of
duty to save her business. She paid
with her own money to have all the
dogs in her kennel see a veterinarian
and get proper medications.

ditioning, quarantine a whole section
of the kennel and inform the owners,"
Caruthers said. "I started the dogs on
medication before the owners came
back and sent owners home with
medication. I even supplied medica-
tion if a dog developed a cough after
it left."
She has always sanitized the ken-
nel and requires vaccinations before
any dogs are allowed to board, but
now is extra careful regarding canine
flu..
"I watch closely-for a cough, but
it's already too late," she said. "The
flu could start at the kennel, vet or on
a walk. If the dog is within 10 feet of
another dog, it can be exposed."
Although she lost customers as a
result of the flu, there wasn't a way
for Caruthers to keep the airborne flu
from spreading.
It was the first time anything like
this happened in the seven years she
has owned the kennel, she said, and it
only took one dog.
"If your child is at school, you
don't expect the school to pay for
cold exposure," Caruthers said.
"You have to look at a kennel as a
hotel or a school. If there are a large
amount of dogs in one public area,
they are-at greater risk of being ex-
posed."
Even though the canine flu is
predominantly in Broward, Dade,
Palm Beach and Duval counties,
veterinarians have seen cases lo-
cally and are familiar with the
virus.
Cynda Crawford, a veterinarian
in the Department of Small Animal
Clinical Sciences at the. University
of Florida College of Veterinary
Medicine, is the lead researcher on
canine flu and gives presentations to
veterinarians.
Janine Tash, a veterinar-
ian at Aalatash Animal Hospital in
Gainesville, has material written by
Crawford.
All dogs are equally susceptible
to infection because they don't have
a naturally acquired immunity, she
said.
"Puppies and older dogs are even
more susceptible because their im-
mune systems are lower, and puppies
may not have the required vaccina-
tions," Tash said.
Crawford's research is funded by
the Division of Pari-Mutuel Wagering
within the Department of Agriculture,
which had an interest in funding the
research because it lost money on
greyhounds that caught flu at the race
tracks.
Crawford concluded that out of
the total number of dogs infected, 80
percent will show symptoms but 20
percent won't, making them silent
shedders. Most dogs have a mild case,
but it can develop into more severe
pneumonia.
Denise Seufert, a veterinarian
at Butler Plaza Animal Hospital in
Gainesville, has seen two cases in the
last six months.
"Puppies and older dogs
are even more susceptible
because their immune sys-
tems are lower, and puppies
may not have the required
vaccinations."
Janine Tash
Aalatash Animal Hospital veterinarian
"The prevention is difficult. The
only way is to limit your dog's ex-
posure, but that is not practical," she
said.
Crawford concluded that the incu-
bation period is two to five days after
exposure before symptoms appear.
Dogs may shed the virus seven to 10
days later.
Even though there is no vaccina-
tion, the fatality rate is only between
1 and 5 percent.
"It can be killed from disinfectants
such as ammonia and 10 percent
bleach, but the best prevention is just
to be cautious about boarding your
dog and watching its activities," Tash
said.
There is no charge for local vet-
erinarians to have Crawford test for
the flu.

Editorial
Vague rulings
SG senators should
explain their decisions
Student Government officials are masters of legal confu-
sion.
We always feel like something is awry in SG, but of-
ficials cloud the air with so much nonsense it becomes hard
to pinpoint where the problem lies.
The latest debacle occurred at a meeting of the SG
Replacement & Agenda Committee, which nominates mem-
bers to all of SG's other committees.
Last week, members voted to suspend the rules in order to
deny Sen. Lola Bovell a seat on the Budget & Appropriations
committee.
Bovell was a member last Spring, left the committee for
the Summer and requested to be placed on the budget com-
mittee again in the Fall.
When a member from the "immediate past era" asks to
be reinstated, the Replacement & Agenda Committee must
nominate that person for the position, according the Senate
Rules & Procedures.
Everyone seems to be confused as to what "immediate
past era" means. The rule reads as if someone attempted to
sound intelligent but put random words together instead.
What is an "era" anyway? Is it a Senate term? Or does
it refer to periods of historical significance, like the Era of
Vietnam or the Era of Joe Goldberg?
The same regulations that contain this stipulation also al-
low senators to suspend certain rules with a two-thirds vote.
So Replacement & Agenda took the latter option and
ruled out Bovell, instead nominating two senators with no
prior experience on the budget committee.
The Editorial Board isn't too fond of suspending any rules
because it raises questions as to why the rules are there in the
first place. However, what we find most objectionable is the
lack of explanation for the decision.
If Bovell proved herself to be inconsistent, flawed or irre-
sponsible as a budget member, then suspending the rules for
her dismissal may have been warranted.
There are hints that this is the case. Student Senate
President John Boyles, who is on Replacement & Agenda,
said Budget Chairwoman Jackie Pace told the committee that
she had concerns about Bovell's past performance. Pace also
described a specific instance showcasing Bovell's inability.
But Boyles wouldn't elaborate on any specifics and in-
stead asked Alligator reporters to request the minutes from
the meeting.
This is a dear problem for a Senate that wants to be taken
seriously. If it won't divulge the specific reasons for rejecting
Bovell, how do we know the reasons weren't unreasonable?
It isn't gossiping to let students know why a committee
made a decision, especially when all the details are public
record.
We haven't gotten the records yet, but we plan to take a
look at them. What is Boyles keeping from us?
If members explained their decision more thoroughly,
perhaps there would be no other reason to explore Bovell's
rejection. But as it stands, we can only look to other possibili-
ties like cronyism.
Senators appear to have been struggling with the mean-
ing of the "immediate past era" rule for a long time. Boyles
suggested that the vague rule has been loosely interpreted;
committee members see it as an indication that applicants
who previously served on a committee should get extra at-
tention.
If there is a problem with the rule, it should be clarified.
And senators need to be candid about their decisions.
Otherwise, every irregular move they make appears suspi-
cious.

Hope exists for Palestinian teenagers
It's a story as old as the very concept of the teen years.
A teenager, battling himself and the world, fights with
his parents and storms out. He confides in his friends,
who sympathize. Eventually, he goes back home, life re-
turns to normal and the teen moves on.
It should never end in tragedy.
But in a Palestinian version of this story, the teen's
name is Salah al Jitan, a 14-year-old boy living in the West
Bank. And this time, the al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigade inserted
itself into the narrative. '
Sadly, when Palestinian terrorists become involved, it
is the rare story that doesn't end in death.
The Associated Press briefly recounted al Jitan's tale in
an Oct. 12 article. The boy's parents said they had quar-
reled with their son about a month earlier. Soon after, sev-
eral al-Aqsa terrorists came to their home and told them to
"leave the boy alone."
The week before the article was published, they paid
another visit to the'household, this time to transform the
young boy into another glorious, suicidal martyr.
But this is where the story turns away from the stan-
dard blood-and-tears narrative so often associated with
this region. This is when revulsion at the thought of a 14-
year-old strapping explosives to his chest turns into the
slightest glimmer of hope.
Al Jitan did not become a suicide bomber.
He did not blow himself up, slaughtering scores of in-
nocent Israeli citizens in the process. When al-Aqsa visited
the family's home a second time, the boy's father did not
acquiesce. He stood up to the forces of death and destruc-
tion and refused to give his son to the terrorists an ac-
tion that seems obvious to us, but one that also reverber-
ates with extraordinary connotations.
Al Jitan did not leave his house until he was arrested
Oct. 12 in an Israeli raid.
"Good, he will be in jail. That's
better than dying," his mother was
quoted as saying in the AP article.
A statement that also seems
obvious to us, but one that might
Andrew Bare augur the dawn of a new era for
The Bare Truth the Palestinian people.
.letters@alligator.org Al-Aqsa vigorously denies the
parents' story. According to the
group, al Jitan is 17, not 14, and he
approached the group about becoming a suicide bomber.
Al-Aqsa, being a decent and noble terrorist group, de-
clined the young man's services because he was the only
son in his family.
It's probably best to believe the al-Aqsa Martyrs
Brigade, because an organization composed .of subhuman
monsters who strap bombs to children would never stoop
so low as to lie to the AP.
Too often we forget that the suicide bombers whose
names we find splashed across the headlines have mothers
and fathers, families who love and cherish them. They're
too easy to view as compilations of statistics how many
they killed, how many they wounded, how much money
was lost in destroyed property.
Every suicide bombing, "successful" or otherwise, is a
triumph of humanity's worst instincts over its best.
But al Jitan's story is a triumph of a parent's love over
a terrorist's hatred.
How many lives could be saved if this story became not
the exception, but the rule? How many mothers would be
spared the pain of their children's deaths?

SNAP service unreliable, unacceptable
Waiting alone at a bus stop on a poorly
lit campus street at 11 p.m. is not the most
comforting feeling. Many of us have relied on
Student Nighttime Auxiliary Patrol, or SNAP,
to transport us to and from late-night tests and
club meetings.
In recent months, however, this intrinsi-
cally important component of campus safety
has no longer been performing its duties. No
student should call the service only to hear a
busy signal 17 calls in a row. With a campus
open to anyone who chooses to enter and an
increasingly prevalent drifter population, this
is a tragedy in the making. SNAP has become
telephonically reclusive and downright unre-
sponsive.
This is unacceptable and incongruous with
the message eagerly supplied to our parents
at freshman orientation that SNAP is a safe
alternative to walking on campus at night.
Why is this promise being unfulfilled? This
issue should have been addressed long ago
- long before money was spent to subsidize.

WebMail needs commercial assistance
In fulfilling its goal to become a Top
10 public university, UF should consider
adopting a commercial enterprise software
solution to improve the reliability of its mail
server. Simply put, the reliability of the UF
mail server is unacceptable.
As a law student running Microsoft
Outlook as a mail client, I was unable to con-

Rude students disrupt life in Gainesville
My experience last week left me wonder-
ing if UF isn't the rudest university in the
country. When I boarded the bus to school,
'the woman in front of me delayed the bus by.
several minutes while she searched her purse
for her Gator 1 Card. I wouldn't have had a
problem with this if she had stopped blab-
bing on her cell phone and dug through her
purse with her full attention.
Later, in one of my classes, five minutes
before time was up, a group of people evi-
dently were ready to leave; they purposefully
made as much noise as they could during the
instructor's lecture to make sure she got the
point.
On the bus ride home, more incivility
ensued. The bus was packed, but I guess it
wasn't necessary for two people to move
over and let other people sit down. This
wasn't the worst part of the ride. That dis-
tinction is reserved for the woman who was
talking to her friend. Talking isn't the right
term; it was more like yelling at a zillion deci-
bels about how she got into an "[expletive]
fight with her [expletive] boyfriend because
she just started her [expletive] period." Spare
me the details!
The day ended when I dined out that
evening. Two tables down from mine, in the
middle of a perfect dinner, someone's cell
phone went off on full blast, blaring Britney
Spears' song "Toxic." Instead of not taking
the call, the person answered it and had a 10-
minute conversation. Is there no end?
Since parents apparently don't teach their
kids to share, use inside voices or show re-
spect toward others, UF should begin offer-
ing Etiquette 101.

full story, said Renada Johnson, a 25-year-old graduate
student at Bowie State University in Maryland who met
Parks in 1997.
"Young people definitely know who she was, but all
we were taught in school was that she didn't get up be-
cause her feet were hunting," Johnson said. "They don't
know her whole story."
In 1955, Parks was a seamstress and longtime secretary
for the local NAACP who defied segregation laws and
refused to give up her seat in a whites-only section of a
public bus in Montgomery, Ala.
Then 42, she inspired tens of thousands of working-
class blacks led by King to boycott the local buses for
more than a year. Finally, the Supreme Court upheld a
lower court ruling, declaring Montgomery's segregated
seating laws unconstitutional. The effort highlighted per-
sistent bias against blacks across the nation.
"Her life should inspire a generation yet un-
born to stand up,"
John Lewis
Democratic U.S. Rep. from Georgia
After she died Monday, Parks was remembered as a
quiet woman of resolve whose simple act helped spark
the biggest movement for change in American history.
"But that was 50 years ago," said Bruce Gordon, presi-
dent of the National Association for the Advancement of
Colored People. "A lot has changed in 50 years."
Many young people either don't know civil rights his-
tory or don't know why it matters, he said. Parks, who
worked to educate youth about the struggle of black
people, once chuckled that children sometimes asked her
if she knew Sojourner Truth and Harriet Tubman, former
slaves who lived generations before her.
And now with the median age of blacks at 30, accord-
ing to the Census Bureau, more than half of the nation's
black community was born after the end of legally sanc-.
tioned racial discrimination.
Parents who were active in the movement say they
sense a disconnect when speaking with their children.
"I remember my son once said t.o me, 'Why did you sit
in the back of the bus? Why didn't you just go up front?' I
said, 'I didn't want to get killed,'" said Earl G. Graves Sr.,
70, publisher of Black Enterprise Magazine. "He looked at
me and blinked."
Marie Denise Jean-Louis, president of the UF Black
Student Union, refused to comment.
The Associated Press contributed to this report.
UF instructor plans to refile claim, appeal judge's decision
LAWSUIT, from page 1
"Although my membership on the
board would not require ... recusal or
disqualification, I believe it best to re-
sign from the board to avoid any ques-
tion of conflict," he wrote.
Roundtree told the Alligator on
Monday he did not think of the board
position when he took the Machen
case.
"I didn't consider it at-all," he said.
"It never came into my mind."
He declined further comment.
Tom Julin, pro-bono attorney for
the Alligator, said Roundtree's UF af-
filiation may not threaten the judge's
impartiality, but he should have told
the people involved with the case.
"Any sort of connection to the uni-
versity I think it would have been
better if he had disclosed it and given
everyone an opportunity to object,"
Julin said.
Tampa attorney Gregg Thomas said
the connection between Roundtree
and UF "seems tenuous," but a judge
"should bend over backwards" to avoid
an apparent conflict.
The Florida Code of Judicial Conduct
states that a judge may serve on a local
committee as long as -that committee
does not discuss issues that come before
his court.
But it also states that even if a judge
believes there is no real basis for his
disqualification, he should inform the
court record of his connections.
Without such disclosure, Roundtree
issued two rulings on Grapski's lawsuit
Thursday.

Grapski's filing was

provided him.
Roundtree dismissed the first allega-
tion "without prejudice," which means
Grapski can refile it after clarification.
Roundtree dismissed the second
claim in the suit because Grapski asked
for documents by date, not by subject.
Machen's counsel argued that UF orga-
nizes records only by subject. The ruling
in the second count was final.
Grapski said he plans to file the first
claim again and appeal Roundtree's de-
cision on the second claim.
"I am going to fight this until the law
is followed," Grapski said. "We haven't
lost it; we just have to refile it and go
back."
UF spokesman Steve Orlando said
that as policy, UF does not comment on
pending or potential litigation.
Grapski said that to him, Roundtree's
presence on the law school advisory
board wasn't the judge's most troubling
connection.
Before he was appointed to the
Eighth Circuit Court, Roundtree was
a partner at the law firm Clayton-
Johnston. Partner James Clayton is a
descendent of E.A. Clayton, the founder
of the firm and a co-founder of UF lead-
ership honorary Florida Blue Key.
James Quincey, another attorney at
the firm, is a former FBK president.
FBK was the subject of the public re-
cords Grapski claims Machen.withheld.
He claims the documents he sought
would "show collusion and corruption
in the University of Florida, in particu-
lar with regard to Florida Blue Key."
Grapski won a judgment against
FBKinl998fordefamationofcharacter.
Julin said Roundtree's relation to
FBK does not constitute a conflict of
interest.
"That does seem like something of a
stretch," he said.
Disabled students
'not cohesive' at UF
CENTER, from page 1
took hours of work of getting about 2,000 signa-
tures on a petition and lobbying administration
officials, Stevens said.
She said she organized students to voice
their concerns about the lack of a center and
started distributing the petition in Fall 2003.
"Every other university in Florida has a
testing center for students with disabilities,"
she said.
UF funded the center through several cam-
pus offices. The provost's office is contributing
the largest share at $300,000, he said. One private
donor, Procter & Gamble, contributed $15,000. -
The company often recruits employees with
disabilities, Denny said.
The office served about 1,319 students as of
September 2004, he said, adding more disabled
students attend UF but do not register out of
privacy concerns or because they feel they do not
need accommodations.
"My guess is that the use is really going to in-
crease," with the new facility, Denny said.
More than 700 of the disabled students at UF
have a learning disability or Attention Deficit
Disorder, the largest segment of. the university's
disabled population.
The most common service these students need
is accommodated tests, which usually
Student means a longer time limit or a quiet
Life room to take the test, Denny said.
He said more than 3,000 accom-
modated exams were requested in the
2004-05 school year. An effort is made to schedule
the test at the same time as the rest of the class.
Stevens said she sees the center as providing
a better way to administer tests and also thinks
it will serve as a meeting place for groups of stu-
dents with disabilities.
It will also better protect students who do not
want to make it known that they are disabled to
go to this separate facility instead of the Dean of
Students Office, she said.
"This ball is rolling, and we're going to have a
quiet and separate facility," she said.
Though students mobilized for the center,
neither the union nor Delta Sigma Omicron, a
service fraternity accepting of students with dis-
abilities, are registered with the Office of Student
Activities this semester.
Stevens said she has not re-registered the
union because of time commitments. Most of the
students involved in soliciting support for the
center have graduated.
She said the disability community "isn't as ac-
tive or as cohesive as it once was."
Denny said student disability groups go
through cycles when levels of activity fluctuate.
A combination of factors led to the disabilities
assembly not taking place this semester.
Student Body Vice President Joyce Medina
said the-assembly fell through because of "mis-
communication."
However, Student Government plans to co-
sponsor one in the Spring with the Disability
Resources office.
The new student DisAbility Affairs Cabinet
Director Vianey Velez could not be reached for
comment.
Jennifer S lvian had the post at the beginning
of the semester and said she had not appointed
any other students to the cabinet.
She would not comment on plans she had
made as director and did not want to offer
any further comment on her role or that of the

Man charged in rape attempt
By STEPHANIE RODRIGUEZ

A deliveryman was ar-
rested Monday on charges of
attempted sexual battery stem-
ming from an incident at a local
restaurant in June.
Lindrix Jamal Freeman,
32, delivered bread to Waffle
House, 3919 SW 40th Blvd., and .
attempted to rape an employee
June 7, reports state.
Freeman reportedly asked
the woman to help him in the
stockroom before he held her
against her will and attempted
to have sexual intercourse with
her.
The woman fought Freeman
and repeatedly told him to
stop.
During the fight, a phone
and several other items fell to
the floor, allowing her to break
free. Freeman fled from the
stockroom after the woman
said a co-worker heard the loud
noise.
Freeman admitted that he
kissed the woman with the in-
tent of having sex with her.
Freeman added that he
caused bruises on the woman's
hands because he grabbed her
while she was leaving.
BURGLARY: A 21-year-old man
was arrested Monday for break-
ing into a residence and stealing
property valued at $910, reports

Artavis Jamar Mallary
smashed a bedroom window
at a residence at 212 NE 40th
Lane between 5:30 a.m. and 10:
40 a.m. Oct: 10. He then stole
mostly video-game equipment
and jewelry, later pawning sev-
eral of the items at B & W Gold
N' Pawn.
"There doesn't appear to be
a connection with Mallary and
other burglaries that have hap-
pened in the city," Gainesville
Police spokesman Keith Kameg
said.
CAR SLEEPER: A man known
for sleeping in cars that are
not his own was arrested
Monday for breaking into a
woman's car, according to
reports.
Akeyemiolu Akanni, 40,
broke into a locked car at 911
NE Third Ave. and searched the
visors and ashtrays.
Akanni said he sometimes

no family history of breast
cancer.
"You would have to dif-
ferentiate between the
good lumps and the
bad lumps."
Shameka Showers
representative,
American Cancer Society
Hilton spoke about her
experience as a breast cancer
survivor at Think Pink: Breast
Cancer Education for Dummies
at the Computer Science and
Engineering building Tuesday
night. The event was part
of Breast Cancer Awareness
month.
Hilton said she had been
giving herself self-examina-
tions since she was in grade
school because she developed
early but that breast size
doesn't matter when it comes
to breast cancer.
Hilton's mother encour-
aged her to get a lumpectomy.
The lump that was removed
was 10 centimeters in diameter,
she said.
"1 probably wouldn't have
noticed the lump if I hadn't
been doing the self-exams,"
Hilton said.
speaks
Shameka Showers, a repre-
sentative from the American
Cancer Society, stressed the im-
portance of performing breast
examinations.
She said bigger lumps can
be detected by self-examina-
tions, but smaller lumps can
only be detected by mammo-
grams.
"You would have. to dif-
ferentiate between the good
lumps and the bad lumps,"
she said.
Showers also said the
primary risk factors of breast
cancer are gender, age and diet.
A secondary risk factor is a
woman's reproductive history.
She said the chances of de-
veloping breast cancer increase
in women who have never had
children or who start menstru-
ating early.
Black women are at a great-
er risk of getting breast cancer
than white women, said Bryn
Warner, the executive director
for the North Central area of
the American Cancer Society.
Warner also said the North
Florida Regional Medical
Center gives out free mam-
mograms on certain scheduled
dates.
During the event, experts
demonstrated how to do breast
exams on breast implants.
It was sponsored by the
Student Government Health
Administrative Cabinet and
UF Women's Affairs.
Patricia Chun and Whitney
Bour, founders of UF's
Colleges Against Cancer, said
the Denim and Diamonds
fundraiser for the American
Cancer Society will be held
Nov. 11. Both Chun and Bour
are cancer survivors.

Meyer makes Georgia tight end Pope top priority

Andy Apicella / Alligator
Jarvis Herring talks to UF coach Urban Meyer after the Gators completed a drive during the LSU game.
It may be up to Herring to help contain Georgia tight end Leonard Pope.
By LOUIS ANASTASIS
Alligator Staff Writer
lanastasis@alligator.org
At 6-foot-7, 250 pounds, Georgia
tight end Leonard Pope isn't ex-
actly hard to miss on the -football
field. Yet that's exactly what hap-
penied last season during the UF-
Georgia game when Pope caught
three passes for 90 yards and two
touchdowns.
"Last year, I didn't expect him
to have the game he did," defen-
sive end Jeremy Mincey said. "He
was kind of out of the game plan.
I didn't pay him any mind, but
he showed up against us. It was. a
shocker for me."
Now that the Gators know
what to expect, the coaching staff
must devise a scheme to defend a
player who will be looking down
at all the Gators covering him. With
quarterback D.J. Shockley out and
drop-back passer Joe Tereshinski
In in, it becomes, that much more
of a priority to contain Pope, who
already has 17 receptions for 262
yards this season.
"You have. to determine whether
[to put] a strong safety or an out-
side linebacker on him," UF coach
Urban Meyer said. "That's going to
be a little bit of a chess match for
our defensive coaches all week."
Safety Jarvis Herring has a sim-
pler approach.
"Put defensive backs on him,"
Herring said. "DB's know how to
play the ball and linebackers don't.
There's a big difference, trust me."
Still, Herring is not about to sug-
gest the Gators get cute with Pope.
"If you bump him and play too
much with him, he'll knock you on
your ass," he said.
OUT FOR THE SEASON: Freshman
linebacker Jon Demps will have
surgery on his left ACL and will
miss the remainder of the season,
Meyer said on Tuesday.
"That's a shame because he was
doing really well," Meyer said. ,
The injury, combined with
linebacker Brandon Siler's recov-
ering left ankle sprain plates the
linebacker corps in a bind. Siler
practiced Tuesday but was still
sore. If he can't
play Saturday,
B : UF would have
S to turn to Brian
Crum or per-
haps even Alvin
': Butler or Darryon
Robinson.
Demps "Do the math,"
said Meyer of the position's depth.
Defensive end Ray McDonald
rebounded from a slow Monday
practice, and wide receiver Jemalle
Cornelius (ankle) is 95 percent
healthy, Meyer added.
ETC.: The UF-Vanderbilt kickoff
time on Nov. 5 has been set for 7:15
p.m. ESPN2 has announced it will
televise the game....
UF is encouraging its fans to
greet the players outside Alltel
Stadium in Jacksonville before the
Georgia game. The team busses
will turn off Gator Bowl Boulevard
and park between J lot and TT lot
adjacent to Gate 1, located on the
Southwest corner of the stadiuwn,
two hours prior to kickoff.
Engel on pace to break SEC record for digs in a season
* UF'S MATCH AGAINST TENNESSEE
TO.BE NATIONALLY TELEVISED.
By BRYAN JONES
Alligator Writer
She digs the long-balls. And she is getting
rewarded for it.
For the second time this season, senior libe-
ro Rachel Engel was, named the Southeastern
Conference Defensive Player of the Week.
Engel led the Gators in digs during both
of their weekend matches, amassing 23 digs
against Arkansas and 18 in the victory against
Louisiana State.
Engel's season average of 5.61 digs per
game is more than a full dig better than the
current SEC record of 4.55, set by Georgia's
Shelly Gross in 1986. At this rate, it would
appear that the only thing that could stop
Engel from breaking the SEC record for digs
in a season is the fact that the Gators rarely
need a fourth or fifth game to finish off their
opponent.
In fact, the Gators have only played a
match to five games once this season, and
they have played two four-game matches.
Only once have they played more than the
three-game minimum in a conference match.
NATIONAL SPOTLIGHT, LOCAL BLACKOUT:
Sunday's road match against Tennessee
might not be televised in Gainesville, but
it will receive national coverage, UF coach
Mary Wise said.
The match will be broadcast on CSTV, a
college-sports television station that can be
seen in more than 65 million homes across
the country.
Cox Cable, the primary cable provider in
the Gainesville area, does not offer the sta-
tion.
There is no word yet on whether a local
television station will broadcast the match,
team spokesman Mike Vietti said.
HAIR-DOS AND, DON'T: When Junior Rhian
Davis showed off her new haircut this week,
the team joked that Davis' short hair bore a
resemblance to Wise's cut.
But when Davis came out onto the court
for Friday's match against Arkansas, her hair-
style left a completely different impression on
her coach.
"She did ask me earlier in the week, 'Do
we have any rules or regulations on hair-
styles?' Wise said. "I should have said yes,
but I didn't. And so you learn, after all these
years of coaching, you've got to be careful
what you say" '
Davis spiked her hair and pushed both
sides together to meet in the middle, creating
a hairdo that resembles a mohawk.
"Rhian Davis was a pole-vaulter in high
school, and we always, thought that anyone
who was willing to put themselves upside
.down in the air has to be a little bit off," Wise
said. "So perhaps the haircut just reflects that
personality.
"She can be bald if she digs balls the way
she did [against LSU]."

UF FOOTBALL
Rivalry, tension heat up Jacksonville's Cocktail Party
By FARZAD SAFI
Alligator Staff Writer
fsafi@alligator.org
The Florida-Georgia game is
not only one of college football's
oldest rivalries, but it is also one of
its most unique.
This weekend more than
100,000 fans will congregate in
downtown Jacksonville to be a
part of the 83rd meeting between
the Gators and the Bulldogs.
Well, it is the 83rd meeting
if you are a UF fan, because the
two schools can't even agree on
what the series record is. Georgia
believes that in 1904, they defeated
UF 52-0. The Gators claim that
never happened because UF did
not field a team until 1906.
Regardless, the rivalry's tradi-
tion and allure attracted Coach
Urban Meyer long before he
moved to Gainesville this past
year.
"I can say that the Florida-
Georgia game is truly one of the
great riiralries in college football,"
Meyer said. "The thing that sepa-
rates this one is the fact that it's
.played at a neutral site. It will
be a tremendous atmosphere in
Jacksonville."
Senior linebacker Todd
ivicCullough knows all about the
rivalry's tension as he grew up in
Macclenny, Fla., which is right be-
low the Florida-Georgia state line.
"This is the border war,"
McCullough said. "We're very
familiar with them, and they are
very familiar with us. If you go
to Florida, you were recruited by
Georgia. If you go to Georgia, you
were recruited by Florida."
For a few Gators, this weekend
will provide a reminder of their
roots.
"It's tough being from Georgia,"
senior Jeremy Mincey said. "Even
my own auntie is against me right
now.
"I liked the Bulldogs until I
watched them play the Florida
Gators for the first time. I fell in
love with the Florida Gators right
then."
Mincey also revealed that he
has had to deal with his fair share
of heckling.
"Last year, Channing Crowder
and I were in the tunnel in
Jacksonville," Mincey said. "Some
Georgia fans yelled out, 'You wish
you played for Georgia.' I just
started laughing and said, 'No, I
really don't.'"
The game is by far the Gators'
most historic, and few know
more about the history of Gators'
football than Dr. Kevin M.
McCarthy.
McCarthy teaches English at
UF and for 10 years has taught a
course entitled ENC 1145, "Writing
About Football," where a large fo-
cus is on discussing the history of
the school's football team.
"I believe what makes the ri-
valry so intense with Georgia is
that the coaches have tended to
dislike each other over the years,"
McCarthy said. "[Former Georgia
Coach] Vince Dooley and Steve
Spurrier never liked eacl{ other.
Florida and Florida State have an
intense rivalry, but I've actually
seen Spurrier and Bobby Bowden
golf together."
McCarthy revealed one of the
classic stories associated with the
game.
"The Great Gatorade Hijack
of 1966," McCarthy said. "The
night before the game, the truck of
Gatorade intended for Gators play-
ers was headed to Jacksonville.
However, a group of Bulldogs fans
forced the driver to pull over and
they dumped all the Gatorade out
on the side of the road.
"When Coach Ray Graves
.found out what happened, he
instructed that a new Gatorade
truck be sent to Jacksonville with
a highway patrolman escort lead-
ing the way. The truck didn't get
there in time and coincidentally
the Gators lost."
Las Vegas oddsmakers give Georgia undeserved underdog status
The lines are in.
The number crunchers in Vegas
- were spotting the No. 4 Bulldogs 5.5
points to begin betting action on Saturday's
Cocktail Party.
But really? Georgia.. .underdawgs?
There must be a toxic neon gas cloud
hovering over the strip.
How could UF possibly hold an advan-
tage going into Jacksonville?
The answer can be summarized in one
not-so-simple name.
"Trezinsky...what was it?" asked defen-
sive end Jeremy Mincey at UF's weekly
press conference on Monday.
It's Tereshinski Joe Tereshinski III
or as Bulldogs fans call him: Joe T3.
He's an Athens-bred quarterback and a
third-generation Georgia football player.
JIe's spent about as much time long-
snapping on special teams as he has taking
snaps under center.
And according to Georgia coach Mark
Richt, he will likely start against UF in
place of senior D.J. Shockley, who's out
with a sprained MCL.
Not that any of that matters.
The Dawgs could have Uga VI barking
plays at the line of scrimmage. Should the
Gators then hold the advantage? No.
What the oddsmakers failed to factor
into their calculations is that in order to
win a football game, a team'must actually
score points.
Simple enough, right? Points equal,
wins. Offense equals points.
At the moment, the only thing offensive
about the Gators is their inability to put the
ball in the end zone.
Against quality opponents, UF has
exactly one true
touchdown drive this
season.
In a 16-7 win
against Tennessee, the
Gators scored on an
Bryan App 80-yard drive, capped
App-etite by an 18-yard reverse'
for Receptions run by junior Andre
bapp@alligator.org Caldwell. That's it.
Interesting how the
offense's only earned
touchdown was the result of a trick play
by a receiver who's sidelined the rest of the
season.
All 17 of UF's points in its loss to No. 7
LSU came from Tigers' turnovers that re-
sulted in a short field'for the Gators.
And No. 5 Alabama held UF out of the
end zone the entire game.
Why would the result be any differ-
ent Saturday against the Southeastern
Conference's No. 3 scoring defense?
Well, UF has a pretty good defense too.
Allowing 271.9 yards per game, the
Gators rank second in the league in total
defense and No. 1 with 23 sacks.
Sure they will put the pressure on old
what's-his-name, forcing fumbles, errant
passes and interceptions.
But how much more can the defense
handle?
Against LSU, the Gators held the ad-
vantage with a plus-five turnover margin.
That's five times the defense gift-wrapped
scoring opportunities for the offense. You're
just not supposed to lose games like that.
Unless .Tereshinski plays both ways on
Saturday, my money says UF will do just-
that, again.
1 Last year the Gators had no
answer for Georgia's Leonard
Pope. This year, stopping the
tight end is one of UF's top priori-
ties. See story, page 17.

"We needed only one more recruit-
ing class and we would have blown

Constitution on how he would have
fared at UF this season.

UGA columnist thinks Tereshinski has the goods to defeat Gators
ATHENS, Ga.
There D.J. Shockley was, lying at about
the 50-yard line.
An awkward hit on a third-down
scramble left him there, unable to get up on
his own-
Georgia's senior quarterback the archi-
tect of the Bulldogs' best start since 2002, the
man behind all the buzz surrounding the 2005
Dawgs was down and barely able to limp
off the field.
That meant Joe Tereshinski, whose only
previous playing time came in a game that
was already decided and when he was on spe-
cial teams, would have two and a half quarters
as leader of the Bulldogs.
A Tim Jennings interception, made four
plays after Shockley went down, gave
Tereshinski little time to get ready.
What did the Bulldog offense do to ensure
its new quarterback was ready to play in front
of 92,000 people?
"We slapped him in the face and told him
to come on," junior offensive tackle Daniel
Inman said.
Tereshinski was only given the opportunity
to throw the ball five times.
Coach Mark Richt took the blame for not
helping his inexperienced quarterback.
In his first real game, Tereshinski played
better than anyone could have expected,
completing 5 of 9 passes for 91 yards and a
touchdown.
But he thought he played just OK.
r"-

The (Georgia) Red

Tereshinski grades him-
self harder than any of
the coaches do, Inman
said.
Inman's right.
Tereshinski played
damn well. And he will
play well enough to put
his team in a position to
win this week.
The full week to pre-
pare will help. Shockley
at practice in his ear will help.
. His on-field experience, doing everything
from snapping to blocking, will help. His
screw-up last year at Tennessee, calling for a
fake punt, will help.
Tereshinski is no stranger to the field or to
pressure.
After the game, he was last into the locker
room, soaking up all the congrats on his Iay
and signing plenty of autographs. He is offi-
cially "the man" now.
"Right now, I don't feel too much pres-
sure," Tereshinski said after the game. "Right
now."
But at his first formal press conference as a
starter Tuesday, he told reporters, "So far it has
been a normal week until I got here," adding
he still had a few tests to worry about.
- Good thing he is worrying about his class-
room tests and not fretting his big test this
Saturday.
That says something. Georgia will be fine.

Moss' knee injury adds to Gators' lack of depth
By DAN TREAT
Alligator Writer
As the Gators head into year one with-
out the Big Three of David Lee, Matt Walsh
and Anthony Roberson, the first question
that arises is where will UF get its scoring
from?
But here's the second, and perhaps
more important, question: Does the UF
men's basketball team have any depth?
AVith just ten players on scholarship, it's
a logical question to raise. But before the
season has even begun, the Gators bench
just got a little bit shorter.
Forward Adrian Moss, the team's lone
senior, is out for 3-4 weeks after suffering a
bone chip in his right knee during practice
last week.
The team originally thought that it was
a minor injury and were anticipating hav-
ing him back at the end of this week, but
the injury turned out to be more serious.
"I think what ended up happening was
that his knee cap shifted," UF coach Billy
Donovan said. "He probably dislocated it,
and it came back into place.
"He kind of was running, and he got
tangled up, and he got his foot inside of
somebody and kind of fell back, and his
knee cap shifted. As it shifted, it chipped
off a piece of the bone."
Moss was to undergo surgery Tuesday
afternoon to remove the chip, and
Donovan did not believe that there was
any ligament damage.
The injury, which will likely cause
Moss to miss the Gators' two exhibition
games and the entire Coaches vs. Cancer
Tournament, further thins out UF's front
court.
Al Horford, Joakim Noah and Chris
Richard are the only three power players
who remain healthy.
Freshman Jimmie Sutton, who at 6-foot-
10, 252 pounds could provide valuable
minutes for Donovan, was just cleared for
limited practice activities this week.
He is currently recovering from an ACL
tear suffered in April.
Add in the fact that the Gators don't
have a natural small forward on the roster,
and UF could conceivably put a line-up
out on the floor that would feature 6-foot
-guards Taurean Green and Walter Hodge
along with 6-foot-2 Lee Humphrey.
Donovan, however, isn't concerned
with who is playing small forward as op-
posed to shooting guard.
"At the two and the three, I'm not over-
ly concerned right now with who's play-
ing the small forward spot because there's
not a lot of difference between the two and
the three," Donovan said. "The only differ-
ence would be who they're defending on
the defensive end of the floor, what lane
they're running offensively.
"For the most part, those two spots are
interchangeable."
Donovan also said that the Gators of-
ten have an advantage because of Corey
Brewer's height at the small forward spot.
His concern, however, lies in whether
UF can keep itself out of foul trouble.
"My concern would be, if we were in
foul trouble, a lack of experience, so to
speak, with Walter and David [Huertas],"
Donovan said. "There's not a lot of experi-
ence there.
Forward Adrian Moss will miss about a month after undergoing knee surgery. The
injury adds to UF's lack of depth.
"In terms of having a body there, I be of concern if we get in foul trouble, or
think we can have a body there, but the have an injury or you know, some of those
lack of experience is something that could things."

Michelle Jacobs, who studies race theory, said Rosa Parks' death is a loss for the younger generation. "It's those old soldiers who make the link between finished work and unfinished work," Jacobs said. Parks died Monday from compounding medical complications. She was 92. Democratic U.S. Rep. John Lewis from Georgia agreed with Jacobs. "As people get older and Parks people pass, it becomes more and more difficult to have that sort of firsthand knowledge," said Lewis, who first met Parks as a 17-year-old student and activist. "It becomes a little more difficult to pass it on." Lewis, who once headed the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee, added that the social challenges of today -persistent racial gaps in poverty, education and wealth, among others -highlight the continued need for activists. and teachers to honor Parks' spirit. "Her life should inspire a generation yet unborn to stand up," he said.

Learning center opens in Spring By DIANA MAZZELLA Alligator Writer dmazzella@aligator.org UF students with disabilities often take tests in a room also used for storage which houses computers, a Braille embosser and a microwave along with other technology. All this is expected to change in the next few months. About two-thirds of the ground floor of Reid Hall will become a new disability center by Spring, said John Denny, Disability Resources director in the Dean of Students Office. The renovation project plans include six offices, five individual testing rooms, one large testing room, a medium-sized testing room and a technology lab that includes two individual rooms, he said. The renovations have cost UF about $530,000 to date. Denny said it will have nearly four times the space the facility has now. Three disabled parking spaces and a ramp for wheelchair accessibility also will be added outside one of theentrances, he said. "I think this is going to be a lot more welcoming environment to our students," Denny said. "It's a new chapter in Disability Resources for sure."

Circuit Judge Robert E. Roundtree Jr. disclosed his UF connection to Machen's accuser via fax Monday, three days after it appeared in the Alligator. "You're supposed to do it before you actually sit in a hearing, not after you've made a ruling," said Charles Grapski, the UF instructor who sued Machen. "Had I known that at the time, we might have asked for a different judge. But without that knowledge, we didn't have the ability to even ask the question." Grapski filed a lawsuit Oct. 5 alleging that Machen disobeyed state public records laws. Roundtree, then a member of the advisory board for the law school's Center on Children and Families, heard the case Thursday. Machen's wife, Chris, serves on the same committee. U F However, the Administration board has not met since March, center director Barbara Woodhouse said. Board members meet about once a year for half a day, and they receive no compensation. Woodhouse said Roundtree's place on the board was no longer appropriate anyway, as he moved from family to civil court in January. 'Judge Roundtree was an excellent family-court judge, and we were sorry to lose him from our advisory board," she said.

WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 26, 2005 Ell ALLIGATOR, 3 Tou hlp etrtcktsbiylwo ud By DAVID COHEN Alligator Writer dcohen@alligator.org The money to fund cheaper student tickets at the Phillips Center for Performing Arts is running out, the director told the Student Senate on Tuesday night. Michael Blachly, the center director, thanked Senate for subsidizing student tickets for shows since Summer. Student So far 3,860 Government students have used $96,190 of SG's $115,000 Summer 2005 subsidy to attend the center's plays and concerts for the discounted price of $10 a seat. Blachly asked Senate to expand the subsidy soon. "I cannot thank you enough," he said of the program. "It's an incredible tribute to you." Also during the meeting, Senate voted to give the group Helping Every Little Person $395 for future arts and crafts sessions with preschool students. The group adopted Small World Day Care, a low-funded private organization in Gainesville, and brings students to hold activities with the children. The group came to Senate with a special request totaling $745 but Senate agreed with an amendment by Sen. Kevin Bacon and Sen. Jackie Pace to remove $350 for markers, crayons, paper and other supplies. Bacon and Pace argued that the supplies were not directly benefiting UF students, which they cited as the primary purpose of the money that would be allocated. Senate also voted to give Human Rights Awareness on Campus $1,340. The group helps with AIDS Awareness Week. The special request, which does not require a second hearing, included a $130 line for newspaper advertisements. Some senators asked whether or not the group was told which campus-distributed newspaper to advertise in. Allocations Chairman Jason Lutin said it was up to the group to decide where the advertisement should go. The subject was brought up because of a September executive order issued by Student Body President Joe Goldberg prohibiting all SG agencies from advertising in the Alligator. The order also strongly discouraged all SG-funded organizations from advertising in the Alligator. Budget & Appropriations Chairwoman Pace said she will resign next week because she needs to apply for graduate school before studying abroad next semester. "It's just time for me to focus Senate President John Boyles Levin College of Law and that the on other things," she said after the announced that the Nov. 8 regular dean of the school will speak with meeting.

4, ALLIGATOR S WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 26, 2005 STUDENT LIFE Professors keep quiet about accreditation results By STEPHEN MAGRUDER Alligato r Write r smagruder@alligator.org Few faculty members in the UF College of Journalism and Communications were willing to comment Tuesday on a report recommending the college's reaccreditation, despite tensions between the dean and faculty. The college was found in compliance with eight of nine standards, failing to comply with "mission, governance and administration." The report praised the college's courses, facilities, faculty and students, but cited "an abiding and possibly intractable breach" between Dean Terry Hynes and faculty. More than 20 faculty members said they "experienced retribution from the dean or feared it if they displeased her," the report stated. Of the 10 professors contacted for comment Tuesday, none supported that statement. Advertising department chairman John Sutherland was unavailable, but an e-mail sent Thursday to his undergraduates stated he was pleased with the team's report, describing the college as "one of the best in the nation." Professors Cory Armstrong, Justin Brown, Linda Hon, Beio Martinez and Jennifer Robinson declined to comment. Telecommunications department chairman David Ostroff said he was pleased by the report. Ostroff said Hynes has made it a priority to balance the needs of graduates and undergraduates, an issue with which similar colleges around the country have struggled. "I think she's had a vision for where the college is going," he said. Hynes is away on an accreditation survey and could not be reached for comment. "Through the years it's very common to be found in non-compliance of one or two." Doug Anderson Accreditation committee chairman Accreditation committee chairman Doug Anderson, who will review the report in March, said colleges suited for reaccreditation rarely comply with every standard. "Through the years it's very common to be found in non-compliance of one or two," he said. The most frequent standards that colleges fail to meet often are diversity and scholarship, he said, but it's not uncommon to be found in non-compliance with governance and administration. This was also the first time the Accrediting Council on Education in Journalism and Mass Communications, the organization that sent a six-member team to UF last week to compile the report, used a new set of nine standards to evaluate the college. While courses in Ostroff's department, which emphasize broadcast techniques in radio and television, typically don't have overcrowding problems like others in the college, Ostroff said his students -like any others at UF -could benefit from more equipment. "Nobody ever has enough equipment, whether they're in academics or CBS," he said. UF was the first of about.25 journalism and communication colleges to be visited by representatives for reaccreditation. Nearly all pass the test, Anderson said, -"Very, very seldom is it that a program does not get-reaccredited," he said. E BOOMING FIELD LACKS HISPANICS, LEADERS SAY. By DAPHNE CHARLES Alligator Contributing Writer After being inactive for nearly a year, the Hispanic Communicators Association has returned to campus. Their return comes at a time when a growing number of journalism jobs are putting an emphasis on hiring.a diverse staff, according to staff members of the UF College of Journalism and Communications. The association was left without a leader for most of last Fall and Spring, but Marisel Chavez is now Swassic Carwash at the reins as president and plans to use the group to emphasize the importance of diversity in the communications workforce. Hispanic Student Association President Katrina Ruiz -asked Chavez if she was interested in reviving the organization by becoming president, and Chavez said she readily accepted the responsibility. Ruiz was the comimnicators association president in 2004 and is working with Chavez to help get the group back in motion. Chavez said the number of Hispanic advertising, public relations, journalism, telecommunications and communications mediums are exploding, especially in Miami and Los Angeles. A recent internship showed her there is still room for advancement. She interned at a Hispanic agency and noticed a lot of the people working there were not Hispanic. "The field is exploding, but the amount of Hispanics Student who reach high ranks Life and fill positions is not growing as fast," Chavez said. She said she believes the lack of Hispanics in communications is due to the need for more Hispanic individuals to enter communications programs and the need for more Hispanic individuals to apply to colleges. The association plans to do a service project this semester to speak to local high school and middle school students about the Hispanic experience in their respective programs. Adviser of the Hispanic Communicators Association JuanCarlos Molleda said the purpose of the organization is to educate. Molleda said the organization helps its members understand how the industry is growing and to know who the leaders of the industry are. It also serves as a medium for Hispanic industry leaders to come to UF and advise prospective future leaders in communications. "From the time I became adviser, I always asked them to be passionate and take it seriously," he said. Molleda said any ambitious student who wants to be a leader in journalism and communications should learn about the needs, expectations and issues of concern for diverse groups. "One of the things we need to change in the university is believing a Hispanic association or black association or gay and lesbian association are only for the people who belong to these groups," he said. Chavez said she encourages all individuals to come to the first meeting today at 5 p.m. in Weimer Hall Room 2066. is Iday Gift Guide 205 Give more than 50,000 readers great gift ideas that your business has to offer.

WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 26, 2005 N ALLIGATOR, 5 MNEREMFMMFlu strain affects mnan's best friend Tim Hussin / Alligator Staff Butch Raymond pets his 5-year-old golden retriever, Jegs, at PETsMART on Tuesday. Canine flu is rare but possible locally. 1 THE DISEASE CAN DESTROY GROUPS OF DOGS EASILY. By JORIE SCHOLNIK Alligator Contributing Writer When Kim Caruthers hears a dog cough, she gasps, holds her breath and prays the dog only swalowed the wrong way She knows it only takes one dog to cause devastation. Caruthers knows the canine influenza virus, commonly called canine flu, all too well. The virus once caused an epidemic at the Sun-Kiva Kennel in Gainesville, which she owns. Caruthers went beyond the call of duty to save her business. She paid with her own money to have all the dogs in her kennel see a veterinarian and get proper medications. "I was able to not run the air-conditioning, quarantine a whole section of the kennel and inform the owners," Caruthers said. "I started the dogs on medication before the owners came back and sent owners home with medication. I even supplied medication if a dog developed a cough after it left." She has always sanitized the kennel and requires vaccinations before any dogs are allowed to board, but now is extra careful regarding canine flu. "I watch closely-for a cough, but it's already too late," she said. "The flu could start at the kennel, vet or on a walk. If the dog is within 10 feet of another dog, it can be exposed." Although she lost customers as a result of the flu, there wasn't a way for Caruthers to keep the airborne flu. from spreading. It was the first time anything like this happened in the seven years she has owned the kennel, she said, and it only took one dog. "If your child is at school, you don't expect the school to pay for cold exposure," Caruthers said. "You have to look at a kennel as a hotel or a school. If there are a large amount of dogsin one public area, they are at greater risk of being exposed." Even though the canine flu is predominantly in Broward, Dade, Palm Beach and Duval counties, veterinarians have seen cases locally and are familiar with the virus. Cynda Crawford, a veterinarian in the Department of Small Animal Clinical Sciences at the. University of Florida Coilege of Veterinary Medicine, is the lead researcher on canine flu and gives presentations to veterinarians. Janine Tash, a veterinarian at Aalatash Animal Hospital in Gainesville, has material written by Crawford. All dogs are equally susceptible to infection because they don't have a naturally acquired immunity, she said. "Puppies and older dogs are even more susceptible because their immune systems are lower, and puppies may not have the required vaccinations," Tash said. Crawford's research is funded by the Division of Pari-Mutuel Wagering within the Department of Agriculture, which had an interest in funding the research because it lost money on greyhounds that caught flu at the race tracks. Crawford concluded that out of the total number of dogs infected, 80 percent will show symptoms but 20 percent won't, making them silent shedders. Most dogs have a mild case, but it can develop into more severe pneumonia. Denise Seufert, a veterinarian at Butler Plaza Animal Hospital in Gainesville, has seen two cases in the last six months. "Puppies and older dogs are even more susceptible because their immune systems are lower, and puppies may not have the required vaccinations." Janine Tash Aalatash Animal Hospital veterinarian "The prevention is difficult. The only way is to limit your dog's exposure, but that is not practical," she said. Crawford concluded that the incubation period is two to five days after exposure before symptoms appear. Dogs may shed the virus seven to 10 days later. Even though there is no vaccination, the fatality rate is only between 1 and 5 percent. "It can be killed from disinfectants such as ammonia and 10 percent bleach, but the best prevention is just to be cautious about boarding your dog and watching its activities," Tash said. There is no charge for local veterinarians to have Crawford test for the flu. $50v cash bonLUs All new offer for college and trade school students, recent grads and graduate students May be combined with most other publicly available Ford Motor Company national incentives at the time of purchase or lease on the model you select.

6, ALLIGATOR a WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 26, 2005 Editorial Vague rulings SG senators should explain their decisions tudent Government officials are masters of legal confusion. We always feel like something is awry in SG, but officials cloud the air with so much nonsense it becomes hard to pinpoint where the problem lies. The latest debacle occurred at a meeting of the SG Replacement & Agenda Committee, which nominates members to all of SG's other committees. Last week, members voted to suspend the rules in order to deny Sen. Lola Bovell a seat on the Budget & Appropriations committee. Bovell was a member last Spring, left the committee for the Summer and requested to be placed on the budget committee again in the Fall. When a member from the "immediate past era" asks to be reinstated, the Replacement & Agenda Committee must nominate that person for the position, according the Senate Rules & Procedures. Everyone seems to be confused as to what "immediate past era" means. The rule reads as if someone attempted to sound intelligent but put random words together instead. What is an "era" anyway? Is it a Senate term? Or does it refer to periods of historical significance, like the Era of Vietnam or the Era of Joe Goldberg? The same regulations that contain this stipulation also allow senators to suspend certain rules with a two-thirds vote. So Replacement & Agenda took the latter option and ruled out Bovell, instead nominating two senators with no prior experience on the budget committee. The Editorial Board isn't too fond of suspending any rules because it raises questions as to why the rules are there in the first place. However, what we find most objectionable is the lack of explanation for the decision. If Bovell proved herself to be inconsistent, flawed or irresponsible as a budget member, then suspending the rules for her dismissal may have been warranted. There are hints that this is the case. Student Senate President John Boyles, who is on Replacement & Agenda, said Budget Chairwoman Jackie Pace told the committee that she had concerns about Bovell's past performance. Pace also described a specific instance showcasing Bovell's inability. But Boyles wouldn't elaborate on any specifics and instead asked Alligator reporters to request the minutes from the meeting. This is a clear problem for a Senate that wants to be taken seriously. If it won't divulge the specific reasons for rejecting Bovell, how do we know the reasons weren't unreasonable? It isn't gossiping to let students know why a committee made a decision, especially when all the details are public record. We haven't gotten the records yet, but we plan to take a look at them. What is Boyles keeping from us? If members explained their decision more thoroughly, perhaps there would be no other reason to explore Bovell's rejection. But as it stands, we can only look to other possibilities -like cronyism. Senators appear to have been struggling with the meaning of the "immediate past era" rule for a long time. Boyles suggested that the vague rule has been loosely interpreted; committee members see it as an indication that applicants who previously served on a committee should get extra attention. If there is a problem with the rule, it should be clarified. And senators need to be candid about their decisions. Otherwise, every irregular move they make appears suspicious. is ite independent florida alligator Mike Gimignani EDITOR Eva Kis MANAGING EDITOR Emily Yehle OPINIONS EDITOR Tom Durrenberger, Scott Gilton, Andrew Meyer EDITORIAL BOARD The Ahigator encourages comments from readers.

Cal 376-4458. ino ns ALLIGATOR www.alligator.org/opinions -3 Rosa 00 Column Hope exists forPalestinian telenagers t's a story as old as the very concept of the teen years. A teenager, battling himself and the world, fights with his parents and storms out. He confides in his friends, who sympathize. Eventually, he goes back home, life returns to normal and the teen moves on. It should never end in tragedy. But in a Palestinian version of this story, the teen's name is Salah al Jitan, a 14-year-old boy living in the West Bank. And this time, the al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigade inserted itself into the narrative. Sadly, when Palestinian terrorists become involved, it is the rare story that doesn't end in death. The Associated Press briefly recounted al Jitan's tale in an Oct. 12 article. The boy's parents said they had quarreled with their son about a month earlier. Soon after, several al-Aqsa terrorists came to their home and told them to "leave the boy alone." The week before the article was published, they paid another visit to the-household, this time to transform the young boy into another glorious, suicidal martyr. But this is where the story turns away from the standard blood-and-tears narratiVe so often associated with this region. This is when revulsion at the thought of a 14year-old strapping explosives to his chest turns into the slightest glimmer of hope. Al Jitan did not become a suicide bomber. He did not blow himself up, slaughtering scores of innocent Israeli citizens in the process. When al-Aqsa visited the family's home a second time, the boy's father did not acquiesce. He stood up to the forces of death and destruction and refused -to give his son to the terrorists -an action that seems obvious to us, but one that also reverberates with extraordinary connotations. Al Jitan did not leave his house until he was arrested Andrew Bare The Bare Truth lettersoalligator.org Oct. 12 in an Israeli raid. "Good, he will be in jail. That's better than dying," his mother was quoted as saying in the AP article. A statement that also seems obvious to us, but one that might augur the dawn of a new era for the Palestinian people. .Al-Aqsa vigorously denies the parents' story. According to the group, al Jitan is 17, not 14, and he approached the group about becoming a suicide bomber. Al-Aqsa, being a decent and noble terrorist group, declined the young man's services because he was the only son in his family. It's probably best to believe the al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigade, because an organization composed.of subhuman monsters who strap bombs to children would never stoop so low as to lie to the AP. Too often we forget that the suicide bombers whose names we find splashed across the headlines have mothers and fathers, families who love and cherish them. They're too easy to view as compilations of statistics -how many they killed, how many they wounded, how much money was lost in destroyed property. Every suicide bombing, "successful" or otherwise, is a triumph of humanity's worst instincts over its best. But al Jitan's story is a triumph of a parent's love over a terrorist's hatred. How many lives could be saved if this story became not the exception, but the rule? How many mothers would be spared the pain of their children's deaths? Andrew Bare is a journalism senior.

WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 26, 2005 N ALLIGATOR, 7 Letters to the EdIftir SNAP service unreliable, unacceptable Waiting alone at a bus stop on a poorly lit campus street at 11 p.m. is not the most comforting feeling. Many of us have relied on Student Nighttime Auxiliary Patrol, or SNAP, to transport us to and from late-night tests and club meetings. In recent months, however, this intrinsically important component of campus safety has no longer been performing its duties. No student should call the service only to hear a busy signal 17 calls in a row. With a campus open to anyone who chooses to enter and an increasingly prevalent drifter population, this is a tragedy in the making. SNAP has become telephonically reclusive and downright unresponsive. This is unacceptable and incongruous with the message eagerly supplied to our parents at freshman orientation that SNAP is a safe alternative to walking on campus at night. Why is this promise being unfulfilled? This issue should have been addressed long ago -long before money was spent to subsidize mediocre comedians. I'm challenging the UF administration, Student Government and the University Police Department to do something about this issue now. Otherwise, I'm left wondering: How little does UF really care about the safety of its students?

On the bus ride home, more incivility ensued. The bus was packed, but I guess it wasn't necessary for two people to move over and let other people sit down. This wasn't the worst part of the ride. That distinction is reserved for the woman who was talking to her friend.

But many are more familiar with the hit song "Rosa Parks" by the hip-hop group O1tKast than with her % *0 0 L. Z U M 0 E E 0E -0 V t 6N% full story, said Renada Johnson, a 25-year-old graduate student at Bowie State University in Maryland who met Parks in 1997. "Young people definitely know who she was, but all we were taught in school was that she didn't get up because her feet were hurting," Johnson said. "They don't know her whole story." In 1955, Parks was a seamstress and longtime secretary for the local NAACP who defied segregation laws and refused to give up her seat in a whites-only section of a public bus in Montgomery, Ala. Then 42, she inspired tens of thousands of workingclass blacks led by King to boycott the local buses for more than a year. Finally, the Supreme Court upheld a lower court ruling, declaring Montgomery's segregated seating laws unconstitutional. The effort highlighted persistent bias against blacks across the nation. "Her life should inspire a generation yet unborn to stand up," John Lewis Democratic U.S. Rep. from Georgia After she died Monday, Parks was remembered as a quiet woman of resolve whose simple act helped spark the biggest movement for change in American history. "But that was 50 years ago," said Bruce Gordon, president of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. "A lot has changed in 50 years." Many young people either don't know civil rights history or don't know why it matters, he said. Parks, who worked to educate youth about the struggle of black people, once chuckled that children sometimes asked her if she knew Sojourner Truth and Harriet Tubman, former slaves who lived generations before her. And now with the median age of blacks at 30, according to the Census Bureau, more than half of the nation's black community was born after the end of legally sanctioned racial discrimination. Parents who were active in the movement say they sense a disconnect when speaking with their children. "I remember my son once said to me, 'Why did you sit in the back of the bus? Why didn't you just go up front?' I said, 'I didn't want to get killed,"' said Earl G. Graves Sr., 70, publisher of Black Enterprise Magazine. "He'looked at me and blinked." Marie Denise Jean-Louis, president of the UF Black Student Union, refused to comment. The Associated Press contributed to this report. UF instructor plans to refile claim, appealjudge's decision LAWSUIT, from page 1 "Although my membership on the board would not require .recusal or disqualification, I believe it best to resign from the board to avoid any question of conflict," he wrote. Roundtree told the Alligator on Monday he did not think of the board position when he took the Machen case. "I didn't consider it at all," he said. "It never came into my mind." He declined further comment. Tom Julin, pro-bonn attorney for the Alligator, said Ronndtree's UF affiliation may not threaten the judge's impartiality, but he should have told the people involved with the case. "Any sort of connection to the university -I think it would have been better if he had disclosed it and given everyone an opportunity to object," Julin said. Tampa attorney Gregg Thomas said the connection between Roundtree and UP "seems tenuous," but a judge "should bend over backwards" to avoid an apparent conflict. The Florida Code of Judicial Conduct states that a judge may serve on a local committee as long as that committee does not discuss issues that come before his court. But it also states that even if a judge believes there is no real basis for his disqualification, he should inform the court record of his connections. Without such disclosure, Roundtree issued two rulings on Grapski's lawsuit Thursday. Roundtree said the first part of Grapski's filing was misleading, as it implied Grapski was "stonewalled" and neglected to mention Grapski public documents UF provided him. Roundtree dismissed the first allegation "without prejudice," which means Grapski can refile it after clarification. Roundtree dismissed the second claim in the suit because Grapski asked for documents by date, not by subject. Machen's counsel argued that UF organizes records only by subject. The ruling in the second count was final. Grapski said he plans to file the first claim again and appeal Roundtree's decision on the second claim. "I am going to fight this until the law is followed," Grapski said. "We haven't lost it; we just have to refile it and go back." UF spokesman Steve Orlando said that as policy, UF does not comment on pending or potential litigation. Grapski said that to him, Roundtree's presence on the law school advisory board wasn't the judge's most troubling connection. Before he was appointed to the Eighth Circuit Court, Roundtree was a partner at the law firm ClaytonJohnston. Partner James Clayton is a descendent of E.A. Clayton, the founder of the firm and a co-founder of UF leadershiphonorary Florida Blue Key. James Quincey, another attorney at the firm, is a former FBK president FBK was the subject of the public records Grapski clatns Machen withheld. He claims the documents he sought would "show collusion and corruption in the University of Florida, in particular with regard to Florida Blue Key.' Grapski won a judgment against FBKin1998fordefamationofcharacter. Julin said Roundtree's relation to FBK does not constitute a conflict of interest. "That does seem like something of a stretch," he said. Disabled students 'not cohesive' at UF CENTER, from page 1 took hours of work of getting about 2,000 signatures on a petition and lobbying administration officials, Stevens said. She said she organized students to voice their concerns about the lack of a center and started distributing the petition in Fall 2003. "Every other university in Florida has a testing center for students with disabilities," she said. UF funded the center through several campus offices. The provost's office is contributing the largest share at $300,000, he said. One private donor, Procter & Gamble, contributed $15,000. The company often recruits employees with disabilities, Denny said. The office served about 1,319 students as of September 2004, he said, adding more disabled students attend UF but do not register out of privacy concerns or because they feel they do not need accommodations. "My guess is that the use is really going to increase," with the new facility, Denny said. More than 700 of the disabled students at UF have a learning disability or Attention Deficit Disorder, the largest segment of the university's disabled population. The most common service these students need is accommodated tests, which usually Student means a longer time limit or a quiet Life room to take the test, Denny said. He said more than 3,000 accommodated exams were requested in the 2004-05 school year. An effort is made to schedule the test at the same time as the rest of the class. Stevens said she sees the center as providing a better way to administer tests and also thinks it will serve as a meeting place for groups of students with disabilities. It will also better protect students who do not want to make it known that they are disabled to go to this separate facility instead of the Dean of Students Office, she said. "This ball is rolling, and we're going to have a quiet and separate facility," she said. Though students mobilized for the center, neither the union nor Delta Sigma Omicron, a service fraternity accepting of students with disabilities, are registered with the Office of Student Activities this semester. Stevens said she has not re-registered the union because of time commitments. Most of the students involved in soliciting support for the center have graduated. She said the disability community "isn't as active or as cohesive as it once was." .Denny said student disability groups go through cycles when levels of activity fluctuate. A combination of factors led to the disabilities assembly not taking place this semester. Student Body Vice President Joyce Medina said the-assembly fell through because of "miscommunication." However, Student Govemment plans to cosponsor one in the Spring with the Disability Resources office. The new student DisAbility Affairs Cabinet Director Vianey Velez could not be reached for comment. Jennifer Sylvian had the post at the beginning of the semester and said she had not appointed any other students to the cabinet. She would not comment on plans she had made as director and did not want to offer any further comment on her role or that of the cabinet.

Lindrix Jamal Freeman, 32, delivered bread to Waffle House, 3919 SW 40th Blvd., and attempted to rape an employee June 7, reports state. Freeman reportedly asked the woman to help him in the stockroom before he held her against her will and attempted to have sexual intercourse with her. The woman fought Freeman and repeatedly told him to stop. During the fight, a phone and several other items fell to the floor, allowing her to break free.

10, ALLIGATOR E WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 26, 2005 Breast cancer survivor speaks By CHERYL CLARKE Alligator Contributing Writer De'Nicea Hilton, 20, found a lump in her right breast in July 2004 when she was 18 years old. It war a week before her birthday The UF junior is not the typical breast cancer victim. She was a teenager when she discovered the lump and has no family history of breast cancer. "You would have to differentiate between the good lumps and the bad lumps." Shameka Showers representative, American Cancer Society Hilton spoke about her experience as a breast cancer survivor at Think Pink: Breast Cancer Education for Dunnies at the Computer Science and Engineering building Tuesday night. The event was part of Breast Cancer Awareness month. Hilton said she had been giving herself self-exanilnaions since she was in grade school because she developed early but that breast size doesn't matter when it comes to breast cancer. Hilton's mother encouraged her to get a lumpectomy. The lump that was removed was 10 centimeters in diameter, she said. "I probably wouldn't have noticed the lump if I hadn't been doing the self-exams," Hilton said. Shameka Showers, a representative from the American Cancer Society, stressed the importance of performing breast examinations. She said bigger lumps can be detected by self-examinations, but smaller lumps can only be detected by mammograms. "You would have. to differentiate between the good lumps and the bad lumps," she said. Showers also said the primary risk factors of breast cancer are gender, age and diet. A secondary risk factor is a woman's reproductive history. She said the chances of developing breast cancer increase in women who-have never had children or who start menstruating early. Black women are at a greater risk of getting breast cancer than white women, said Bryn Warner, the executive director for the North Central area of the American Cancer Society. Wamer also said the North Florida Regional Medical Center gives out free mammograms on certain scheduled dates. During the event, experts demonstrated how to do breast exams on breast implants. It was sponsored by the Student Government Health Administrative Cabinet and UP Women's Affairs. Patricia Chun and Whitney Bour, founders of l's Colleges Against Cancer, said the Denim and Diamonds fundraiser for the American Cancer Society will be held Nov. 11.

WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 2, 2005 C ALLIGATORl MeoyWe-r rna&kes'Georlga tight end OPope toup priority Anay Apicena / AMgaior Jarvis Herring talks to UF coach Urban Meyer after the Gators completed a drive during the LSU game. It may be up to Herring to help contain Georgia tight end Leonard Pope. By LOUIS ANASTASIS Alligator Staff Writer lanastasis@alligator.org At 6-foot-7, 250 pounds, Georgia tight end Leonard Pope isn't exactly hard to miss on the football field. Yet that's exactly what happened last season during the UFGeorgia game when Pope caught three passes for 90 yards and two touchdowns. "Last year, I didn't expect him to have the game he did," defensive end Jeremy Mincey said. "He was kind Of out of the game plan. I didn't pay him any mind, but he showed up against us. It was a shocker for me." Now that the Gators know what to expect, the coaching staff must devise a scheme to defend a player who will be looking down at all the Gators covering him. With quarterback D.J. Shockley out and drop-back passer Joe Tereshinski Ill in, it becomes that much more of a priority to contain Pope, who already has 17 receptions for 262 yards this season. "You have to determine whether [to put] a strong safety or an outside linebacker on him," UF coach Urban Meyer said. "That's going to be a little bit of a chess match for our defensive coaches all week." Safety Jarvis Herring has a simpler approach. "Put defensive backs on him," Herring said. "DB's know how to play the ball and linebackers don't. There's a big difference, trust me." Still, Herring is not about to suggest the Gators get cute with Pope. "If you bump him and play too much with him, he'll knock you on your ass," he said. OUT FOR THE SEASON: Freshman linebacker Jon Demps will have surgery on his left ACL and will miss the remainder of the season, Meyer said on Tuesday. "That's a shame because he was doing really well," Meyer said. The injury, combined wiah linebacker Brandon Siler's recovering left ankle sprain places the linebacker corps in a bind. Siler practiced Tuesday but was still sore. If he can't play Saturday, UF would have to turn to Brian Crum or perhaps even Alvin Butler or Darryon Robinson. Demps "Do the math," said Meyer of the position's depth. Defensive end Ray McDonald rebounded from a slow Monday practice, and wide receiver Jemalle Cornelius (ankle) is 95 percent healthy, Meyer added. ETC.: The UF-Vanderbilt kickoff time on Nov. 5 has been set for 7:15 p.m. ESPN2 has announced it will televise the game. UF is 'encouraging its fans to greet the players outside Alltel Stadium in Jacksonville before the Georgia game. The team busses will turn off Gator Bowl Boulevard and park between J lot and TT lot adjacent to Gate 1, located on the Southwest corner of the stadiowi, two hours prior to kickoff. IN UF'S MATCH AGAINST TENNESSEE TO BE NATIONALLY TELEVISED. By BRYAN JONES Alligator Writer She digs the long-balls. And she is getting rewarded for it. For the second time this season, senior libero Rachel Engel was named the Southeastern Conference Defensive Player of the Week. Engel led the Gators in digs during both of their weekend matches, amassing 23 digs against Arkansas and 18 in the victory against Louisiana State. Engel's season average of 5.61 digs per game is more than a full dig better than the current SEC record of 4.55, set by Georgia's Shelly Gross in 1986. At tis rate, it would appear that the only thing that could stop Engel from breaking the SEC record for digs in a season is the fact that the Gators rarely need a fourth or fifth game to finish off their opponent. In fact, the Gators have only played a match to five games once this season, and they have played two four-game matches. Only once have they played more than the three-game mirimum in a conference match. NATIONAL SPOTLIGHT, LOCAL BLACKOUT: Sunday's road match against Tennessee might not be televised in Gainesville, but it will receive national coverage, UF coach Mary Wise said. The match will be broadcast on CSTV, a college-sports television station that can be seen in more than 65 million homes across the country. Cox Cable, the primary cable provider in the Gainesville area, does not offer the station. There is no word yet on whether a local television station will broadcast the match, team spokesman Mike Vietti said. HAIR-DOS AND, DON'TS: When Junior Rhian Davis showed off her new haircut this week, the team joked that Davis' short hair bore a resemblance to Wise's cut. But when Davis came out onto the court for Friday's match against Arkansas, her hairstyle left a completely different impression on her coach. "She did ask me earlier in the week, 'Do we have any rules or regulations on hairstyles?' Wise said. "I should have said yes, but I didn't. And so you learn, after all these years of coaching, you've got to be careful what you say." Davis spiked her hair and pushed both sides together to meet in the middle, creating a hairdo that resembles a mohawk. "Rhian Davis was a pole-vaulter in high school, and we always thought that anyone who was willing to put themselves upside down in the air has to be a little bit off," Wise said. "So perhaps the haircut just reflects that personality. "She can be bald if she digs balls the way she did [against LSUj." Kim Klement/ Alligator Rachel Engel records a dig against Arkansas on Friday. She was named SEC Defensive Player of the Week and is on pace to break the SEC single-season digs record. i n j% s,,%,oa% o",, tngel on pace to break'r"EC record for dirgo a COD

WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 26, 2005 ALLIGATOR www.alligatorSports.org U' FOOTBALL RarytnsnhetpJacksonville's Cocktail PAr By FARZAD SAFI Alligator Staff Writer fsafi@alligator.org The Florida-Georgia game is not only one of college football's oldest rivalries, but it is also one of its most unique. This weekend more than 100,000 fans will congregate in downtown Jacksonville to be a part of the 83rd meeting between the Gators and the Bulldogs. Well, it is the 83rd meeting if you are a UF fan, because the two schools can't even agree on what the series record is. Georgia believes that in 1904, they defeated UF 52-0. The Gators claim that never happened because UF did not field a team until 1906. Regardless, the rivalry's tradition and allure attracted Coach Urban Meyer long before he moved to Gainesville this past year. "I can -say that the FloridaGeorgia game is truly one of the great rivalries in college football," Meyer said. "The thing that separates this one is the fact that it's played at a neutral site. It will be a tremendous atmosphere in Jacksonville." Senior linebacker Todd IvicCullough knows all about the rivalry's tension as he grew up in Macclenny, Fla., which is right below the Florida-Georgia state line. "This is the border war," McCullough said. "We're very senior Jeremy Mincey said. "Even familiar with them, and they are my own auntie is against me right very familiar with us. If you go now. to Florida, you were recruited by "I liked the Bulldogs until I Georgia. If you go to Georgia, you watched them play the Florida were recruited by Florida." Gators for the first time. I fell in For a few Gators, this weekend love with the Florida Gators right will provide a reminder of their then." roots. Mincey also revealed that he "It's tough being from Georgia," has had to deal with his fair share of heckling. "Last year, Channing Crowder and I were in the tunnel in Jacksonville," Mincey said. "Some Georgia fans yelled out, 'You wish you played for Georgia.' I just started laughing and said, 'No, I really don't."' The game is by far the Gators' most historic, and few know more about the history of Gators' football than Dr. Kevin M. McCarthy. McCarthy teaches English at UF and for 10 years has taught a course entitled ENC 1145, "Writing About Football," where a large focus is on discussing the history of the school's football team. "I believe what makes the rivalry so intense with Georgia is that the coaches have tended to dislike each other over the years," McCarthy said. "[Former Georgia Coach] Vince Dooley and Steve Spurrier never liked each other. Florida and Florida State have an intense rivalry, but I've actually seen Spurrier and Bobby Bowden golf together." McCarthy revealed one of the classic stories associated with the game. "The Great Gatorade Hijack of 1966," McCarthy said. "The night before the game, the truck of Gatorade intended for Gators players was headed to Jacksonville. However, a group of Bulldogs fans forced the driver to pull over and they dumped all the Gatorade out on the side of the road. "When Coach Ray Graves found out what happened, he instructed that a new Gatorade truck be sent to Jacksonville with a highway patrolman escort leading the way. The truck didn't get there in time and coincidentally the Gators lost." Las Vegas oddsmakers gye eorgIa undeserved underdog status F--he tines are mn. T The number crunchers in Vegas were spotting the No. 4 Bulldogs 5.5 points to begin betting action on Saturday's Cocktail Party. But really? Georgia. .underdawgs? There must be a toxic neon gas cloud hovering over the strip. How could UF possibly hold an advantage going into Jacksonville? The answer can be summarized in one not-so-simple name. "Trezinsky.what was it?" asked defensive end Jeremy Mincey at UF's weekly press conference on Monday. It's Tereshinski -Joe Tereshinski III -or as Bulldogs fans call him: Joe T3. He's an Athens-bred quarterback and a third-generation Georgia football player. ,He's spent about as much time longsnapping on special teams as he has taking snaps under center. And according to Georgia coach Mark Richt, he will likely start against UP in place of senior D.J. Shockley, who's out with a sprained MCL. Not that any of that matters. The Dawgs could have Uga VI barking plays at the line of scrimmage. Should the Gators then hold the advantage? No. What the oddsmakers failed to factor into their calculations is that in order to win a football game, a team must actually score points. Simple enough, right? Points equal, wins. Offense equals points. At the moment, the only thing offensive about the Gators is their inability to put the ball in the end zone. Against quality opponents, UF has exactly one true touchdown drive this season. In a 16-7 win against Tennessee, the Gators scored on an Bryan APP 80-yard drive, capped App-etite by an 18-yard reverse' for Receptions run by junior Andre bapp@alligator.org Cald-well. That's it. Interesting how the offense's only earned touchdown was the result of a trick play by a receiver who's sidelined the rest of the season. All 17 of UF's points in its loss to No. 7 LSU came from Tigers' turnovers that resulted in a short field for the Gators. And No. 5 Alabama held UF out of the end zone the entire game. Why would the result be any different Saturday against the Southeastern Conference's No. 3 scoring defense? Well, UF has a pretty good defense too. Allowing 271.9 yards per game, the Gators rank second in the league in total defense and No. 1 with 23 sacks. Sure they will put the pressure on old what's-his-name, forcing fumbles, errant passes and interceptions. But how much more can the defense handle? Against LSU, the Gators held the advantage with a plus-five turnover margin. That's five times the defense gift-wrapped scoring opportunities for the offense. You're just not supposed to lose games like that. Unless Tereshinski plays both ways on Saturday, my money says UF will do justthat, again. 1957: No. 10 LSU -is no match for the unranked Gators, as Bob Woodruff's UF team upsets the Tigers 22-14 in Gainesville. The Gators finished the season 6-2-1 and earned a No. 20 national ranking. "We needed only one more recruiting class and we would have blown the fop off that thing" Ron Zook told the Atlanta JournalConstitution on how he would have fared at UF this season. 0 Last year the Gators had no answer for Georgia's Leonard Pope. This year, stopping the tight end is one of UF's top priori' ties. See story, page 17. E Next weekend's UF-Vanderbilt game at the Swamp will air on ESPN2 at 7:15 p.m. The Gators are 7-0 all-time when playing on ESPN2.

WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 26, 2005 M ALLIGATOR, 9 UGA columnist thinks Tereshinski has the goods to defeat Gators ATHENS, Ga. T here D.J. Shockley was, lying at about the 50-yard line. An awkward hit on a third-down scramble left him there, unable to get up on his own. Georgia's senior quarterback -the architect of the Bulldogs' best start since 2002, the man behind all the buzz surrounding the 2005 Dawgs -was down and barely able to limp off the field. That meant Joe Tereshinski, whose only previous playing time came in a game that was already decided and when he was on special teams, would have two and a half quarters as leader of the Bulldogs. A Tim Jennings interception, made four plays after Shockley went down, gave Tereshinski little time to get ready What did the Bulldog offense do to ensure its new quarterback was ready to play in front of 92,000 people? "We slapped him in the face and told him to come on," junior offensive tackle Daniel Inman said. Tereshinski was only given the opportunity to throw the ball five times. Coach Mark Richt took the blame for not helping his inexperienced quarterback. In his first real game, Tereshinski played better than anyone could have expected, completing 5 of 9 passes for 91 yards and a touchdown. But he thought he played just OK. Matthew Borenstein The (Georgia) Red and Black Tereshinski grades himself harder than any of the coaches do, Inman said. Inman's right. Tereshinski played damn well. And he will play well enough to put his team in a position to win this week. The full week to prepare will help. Shockley at practice in his ear will help. .His on-field experience, doing everything from snapping to blocking, will help. His screw-up last year at Tennessee, calling for a fake punt, will help. Tereshinski is no stranger to the field or to pressure. After the game, he was last into the locker room, soaking up all the congrats on his x;ay and signing plenty of autographs. He is officially "the man" now. "Right now, I don't feel too much pressure," Tereshinski said after the game. "Right now." But at his first formal press conference as a starter Tuesday, he told reporters, "So far it has been a normal week until I got here," adding he still had a few tests to worry about. -Good thing he is worrying about his classroom tests and not fretting his big test this Saturday. That says something. Georgia will be fine.

20, ALLIGATOR N WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 26, 2005 s' kne e njry adds to Gators' ack of depth By DAN TREAT Alligator Writer As the Gators head into year one without the Big Three of David Lee, Matt Walsh and Anthony Roberson, the first question that arises is where will UF get its scoring from? But here's the second, and perhaps more important, question: Does the UF men's basketball team have any depth? 4Vith just ten players on scholarship, it's a logical question to raise. But before the season has even begun, the Gators bench just got a little bit shorter. Forward Adrian Moss, the team's lone senior, is out for 3-4 weeks after suffering a bone chip in his right knee during practice last week. The team originally thought that it was a minor injury and were anticipating having him back at the end of this week, but the injury turned out to be more serious. "I think what ended up happening was that his knee cap shifted," UF coach Billy Donovan said. "He probably dislocated it, and it came back into place. Al Horford, so. Chris Richard,jr. Joakim Noah, so. Adrian Moss, sr. ( month)* JimmieSutton, fr. (indefinitely)* Corey Brewer, so. David Huertas, fr. Garrett Tyler, so.** Jack Berry, so. ** Lee Humphrey, jr. Taurean Green, so. Wialter Hodge, fr. Brett Swanson, jr. ** notes ijur I Denotes walk-on "He kind of was running, and he got tangled up, and he got his foot inside of somebody and kind of fell back, and his knee cap shifted. As it shifted, it chipped off a piece of the bone." Moss was to undergo surgery Tuesday afternoon to remove the chip, and Donovan did not believe that there was any ligament damage. The injury, which will likely cause Moss to miss the Gators' two exhibition games and the entire Coaches vs. Cancer Tournament, further thins out UF's front court. Al Horford, Joakim Noah and Chris Richard are the only three power players who remain healthy. Freshman Jimmie Sutton, who at 6-foot10, 252 pounds could provide valuable minutes for Donovan, was just cleared for limited practice activities this week. He is currently recovering from an ACL tear suffered in April. Add in the fact that the Gators don't have a natural small forward on the roster, and UP could conceivably put a line-up out on the floor that would feature 6-foot guards Taurean Green and Walter Hodge along with 6-foot-2 Lee Humphrey. Donovan, however, isn't concerned with who is playing small forward as opposed to shooting guard. "At the two and the three, I'm not overly concerned right now with who's playing the small forward spot because there's not a lot of difference between the two and the three," Donovan said. "The only difference would be who they're defending on the defensive end of the floor, what lane they're running offensively. "For the most part, those two spots are interchangeable." Donovan also said that the Gators often have an advantage because of Corey Brewer's height at the small forward spot. His concern, however, lies in whether UP can keep itself out of foul trouble. "My concern would be, if we were in foul trouble, a lack of experience, so to speak, with Walter and David [Huertas]," Donovan said. "There's not a lot of experience there. Forward Adrian Moss will miss about a month after undergoing knee surgery. The injury adds to UF's lack of depth. "In terms of having a body there, I be of concern if we get in foul trouble, or think we can have a body there, but the have an injury or you know, some of those lack of experience is something that could things."
