The explosion in West last Wednesday led officers of Sigma Phi Epsilon to or- ganize a community blood drive Monday to help resi- dents of the small town. Business accounting se- nior Payton Schramm,vice president of philanthropy for Sigma Phi Epsilon, orga- nized Monday’s blood drive in the fraternity’s parking lot at the corner of 25th and Pearl streets. Approximately 30 donors attended the drive. “There’s always one or two events we do every semester to give back to the commu- nity,” Schramm said. “There are also spontaneous events like this blood drive that I organized. We’re always try- ing to do our part to give back, so when the explosion hit West Texas last week, we decided a blood drive would fit perfectly.” Schramm said he organized the event with The Blood Cen- ter of Central Texas and set it up in the fraternity parking lot 1 For the biggest, tastefully vulgar laughs around campus.

David Dewhurst said last week the Texas Leg- islature would support West in the aftermath of the explo- sion, but the region’s repre- sentatives said they are wait- ing for more answers before submitting legislation. The explosion killed 14 people — including 10 first responders — and injured more than 200 people and demolished several neigh- boring buildings. Last week, Gov. Rick Perry designated McLennan County, which contains West, a disaster zone. Speaking at a forum spon- sored by The Texas Tribune, Bryan Shaw, Texas Com- mission on Environmental Quality chairman, said a rail car filled with am- mounium nitrate — not an ammonia tank at the plant — may have caused the explosion. State Rep. Kyle Kacal, R-College Station, repre- sents a portion of McLen- nan County and said he is waiting for state and federal agencies to finish investigating the cause of the explosion before he of- fers legislation to address the situation in West. The State Fire Marshall’s Office and the federal Bu- reau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives are among the several state and federal agencies investigat- ing the cause of the fire and subsequent explosion. “My main concern is getting the town of West every asset they need from local authori- ties, state authorities and fed- eral authorities to help them get some semblance of regular life back as fast as possible,” Kacal said.

Numerous student organizations and UT de- partments celebrated the day with games, prizes and tutorials about conserva- tion and sustainability on campus. Faith Shin, direc- tor of the Campus Environ- mental Center and psychol- ogy senior, said the center wanted to have different organizations together to showcase sustainability ef- forts on campus and the greater Austin area in hon- or of Earth Day. “It’s a great way to promote environmen- tal awareness,” Shin said. “Some of these activities are just for fun and others are more educational. UT Micro Farm is identify- ing herbs and giving away food to those who correct- ly identify them.” Jane Vinogradova, sustainability chairwoman for the Student Engineer- ing Council and biomedi- cal engineering senior, said she tries to make sure the council is present at im- portant events like Earth Day Carnival. “Our idea was to make canvas bags that people could personalize and deco- rate,” Vinogradova said.

Less than 10 percent of the nation’s 10,000 police departments are accredited by CALEA, a national cre- dentialing authority created by law enforcement’s execu- tive associations including the International Association of Chiefs of Police, National Organization of Black Law Enforcement Executives, Na- tional Sheriffs’ Association and the Police Executive Re- search Forum. Accreditation is sought on a volunteer basis. “We put in so much work and so much effort, to be re- accredited will validate our work,” Lt. Julie Gillespie said. “It’s a feather in our cap as a department, it shows the pro- fessionalism we’ve achieved and it’s very important. You wouldn’t go to a college that wasn’t accredited — we look at it the same way.” CAMPUSSigma Phi Epsilon organizes campus blood driveCharlie PearceDaily Texan StaffFinance soph- mores Ashley Davison and Matt Johnson give blood during the Sigma Phi Epsilon blood drive for West families Monday afternoon.

Volume 113, Issue 147Jorge Corona | Daily Texan StaffA man, who wished to remain anonymous, lies on a bus stop on N. Pleasant Valley Road on Monday afternoon. FRAMES | FEAtuREd photo the longest in one of the event’s games won a reus- able duffle bag. Petroleum engineering sophomore Naitik Singh said she beat the high score for the duffle bag. “It’s interesting to see all of these departments and organizations making the effort to promote sustain- ability with their own inge- nuity,” Singh said. Other campus organiza- tions and departments at the carnival included the Divi- sion of Housing and Food Services, Energy Steward- ship Program and the Bridg- ing Disciplines Program. Stephanie Perrone, building energy and re- source steward for the University’s Facilities Ser- vices, said the energy re- source and conservation program came out to tell students about the pro- gram, which was created about a year ago. “Our goal is to reduce energy and water con- sumption on campus by 20 percent by the year 2020,” Perrone said. “We do that by working direct- ly with building occupants and building operators to maximize efficiencies of the systems.” Sustainability academ- ics assistant manager Alice Gerhart said the office of sustainability works on the program side to increase the amount of sustainability be- ing taught on campus. “Making the effort to live in a way that is eco- friendly and environmen- tally aware is what this event is about,” Gerhart said. “Small steps to pro- mote sustainability are what we’re trying to do.” from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.. “I know a lot of blood drives aren’t available in this zip code but I found [the Blood Center of Cen- tral Texas],” Schramm said. “I got in contact with them and it was a really easy pro- cess. You don’t pay them anything, they just show up. You just give them an idea of how many people are com- ing and then they just work with you.” Finance junior and frater- nity president Doug Brust- kern said listening to the news and hearing the need for donations is what caused his organization to consider hosting the blood drive. “We just figured it would be a good thing to do be- cause there are people in need,” Brustkern said. “And since we have a history of do- ing it, we wanted to bring it back to help out.” Sigma Phi Epsilon ad- vertised their blood drive through word of mouth, and emails were sent out on fraternity and sorority listservs. Schramm said the event was also publicized by the Interfraternity Council, which published event no- tices on its Facebook and Twitter accounts. Undeclared natural sci- ences freshman Ellen Co- canougher said she donated blood at the drive to help out the victims of the explosion in West. “It was a tragic thing,” Co- canougher said. “ So I just want to help out West and give as much blood as I can.” Monday by allowing students to continue classes at West Elementary School. The explosion destroyed the city’s intermediate school and damaged the high school located near the plant. State Sen. Brian Birdwell, R-Granbury, echoed Kacal’s sentiments in a statement Monday and said he is im- mediately concerned with assisting local leaders and emergency personnel im- pacted by the blast. “Discussions about legisla- tion will come, as necessary, once the appropriate investi- gations have been complet- ed,” Birdwell said. Perry told The Associated Press on Monday he does not believe additional oversight of plants such as West Fertil- izer Co. would have prevent- ed the explosion. Two federal agencies will join the numerous state and federal entities investigating the explosion and seeking to help those displaced by it. On Friday, President Barack Obama authorized the Fed- eral Emergency Manage- ment Agency and Depart- ment of Homeland Security to provide aid in the region, responding to Perry’s re- quest that the government declare the situation a federal emergency. President Obama and first lady Michelle Obama will attend a memorial ser- vice in Waco on Thursday for victims of the fertilizer explosion in West, accord- ing to The White House. The president was already scheduled to headline a Democratic fundraiser in Dallas on Wednesday and attend the formal opening of the George Bush Presi- dential Library and Muse- um on Thursday. The memorial service is scheduled for 2 p.m. in the Fer- rell Center at Baylor University. The forum was held as part of an on-site assess- ment performed by a team from CALEA. It included a retired chief of police and an administrative coordina- tor with the Virginia Tech police department. The team will develop a report documenting whether or not UTPD has maintained its standards since 2010, when the department was last accredited. Accredita- tion must be renewed every three years. At the forum, represen- tatives from the Office of the Dean of Students ex- pressed their support of UTPD’s reaccreditation. Christa Lopez, associate director for student emer- gency services, said her of- fice has an “immense and fabulous” working relation- ship with UTPD. “Our office pairs with UTPD quite frequently,” Lopez said. “We feel like they’re supportive of ... the educational process. They’ve always been very agreeable and easy to access 24/7.” Mary Beth Mercatoris, assistant dean of students for student activities, said UTPD has been invaluable in helping her office over- see more than 1,000 student organizations with “varied opinions and energies.” “We have a wonderful working relationship with the UT police department,” Mer- catoris said. “We strategize with UTPD to champion stu- dent rights to freedom of ex- pression, while maintaining the integrity of the University – and more times than not everything works out really well. It’s a testament to this wonderful partnership.” Mercatoris said UTPD is an essential facet of her office’s two-tier strat- egy when dealing with unfavorable situations or confrontations between student organizations. “A lot of things don’t erupt into negative en- ergy because we spend so much time front-loading this relationship [with UTPD],” Mercatoris said in regard to the diverg- ing and often contentious opinions and worldviews between student groups. “I think it would speak very highly of CALEA to have UTPD accredited, because they’re doing things right here.” The report will be sub- mitted to a 21-person com- mission in July that will decide whether to grant accreditation. The com- mission members were appointed by the founding organizations and are made up of law enforcement ex- ecutives and members of the public sector.

William Powers Jr. UT PRESIDENT2. DeLoss Dodds MEN’S ATHLETICS DIRECTORDuring Dodds’ 31-year tenure as Texas’ men’s athletics director, the Longhorns have won 14 national titles, 106 conference championships and have become the most profitable athletics program in the country. The Longhorns’ football program alone generated $103.8 million during the 2011-12 fiscal year, according to USA Today, the first time a college football program brought in $100 million of revenue. Since the launch of the Longhorn Network, which Dodds says is one of his five best accomplishments at UT, Texas has struggled. The football team is 22-16 over the last three years, while the men’s basketball and baseball squads failed to reach the NCAA Tournament for the first time since the late ‘90s. Can Dodds push the right buttons and pull all the strings to rebuild the juggernaut he created? 3. Kevin HegartyVICE PRESIDENT AND CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICERSome understand budgets, while others understand people. And then there are people like Hegarty, who understand both well enough that they can toe the line and serve as a translator for both worlds. The former Dell executive and current vice president and chief financial officer not only oversees the University’s $2.2 billion operating budget, but is UT’s go-to guy for dealing with messy situations. Hegarty sits on the influential University Budget Council and the Tuition Policy Advisory Committee and has headed reorganizations in information technology and development offices. Most recently, Powers named him the point person to implement the $490 million worth of cost savings recommended by the Committee on Business Productivity in its report — a process that will take a healthy under- standing of budgets and of people. 4. Mack BrownFOOTBALL COACHIt’s easy to retain power when you’re the highest paid public employee in the state. If the athletics department wanted to part ways with Brown, they’d have to swallow a $2.75 million pill for the buyout. Brown remains the face of not only Texas Athletics but also the entire school. The perennial success of Brown’s pro- gram, along with his ascension to national recognition, is the chief reason Texas is one of eight not requiring university financial assistance and also the main bait for ESPN in the groundbreaking deal to form the Longhorn Network. Brown might not make the decisions, but if it weren’t for him, Dodds wouldn’t be making them, either. Now, if only he could beat Oklahoma. 5. Gage PaineVICE PRESIDENT OF STUDENT AFFAIRSPaine joined the University in August as the first woman appointed as Vice Presi- dent of Student Affairs. At first glance, the role may not seem particularly powerful, but Paine oversees 14 of the University’s largest non-academic units, including the University Health Services, the Office of the Dean of Students and the residence halls. With extracurriculars making up so much of the overall college experience, from recreational sports leagues to dining hall pizza to student organizations, Paine has the ability to greatly enhance or hurt the UT vibe that is so appealing to incoming freshmen. While the top pick here is obvious, it is easy to forget the breadth of responsibility and influence of the man at the top. Since stepping into office in February 2006 after a stint as dean of the School of Law, Powers has helped the University’s bud- get grow from about $1.6 billion to about $2.2 billion last year, kicked off a $3 billion fundraising campaign and opened 20 new buildings. Additionally, with seven years under his belt, Powers has set the vision he wants of the University, as every high-level administrator — from deans to vice presidents — has either been hired or re-hired by Powers. But as is the case of all public figures, one’s grasp of power is not simply measured by his or her ability to do a job, but rather an ability to keep a job — and in that regard, Powers’ reign may be the most impressive. A man who took the job hoping to guide UT to become the top public uni- versity in the country found himself having to defend the value of a university to society, all in the face of declining revenue, hostile regents and health problems, including a pulmonary embolism in 2011. And so while it may not come as a surprise, it does come with certainty that Powers heads the powers that are at the University of Texas. 1. Pu Ying Huang | Daily Texan file photo / 2.

VIEWPOINTGALLERYBy William Powers Jr. Guest columnistHigher education, journalism share similar challengesI’m sorry to see UT giving Earth Month cre- dence on an institutional level. We have a very large administrative accounting group whose job is to see that UT doesn’t waste money. Any measure that could save UT a significant amount of money should be submitted to them. Any measure that does not save money shouldn’t be implemented, whether it has an alleged environ- mental justification or not. Specifically regarding Earth Hour, it’s simply silly to voluntarily turn off lights while sitting in air-conditioned or heated buildings in a techno- logically-developed country and pretend it has any perceptible impact on global climate pro- cesses. I also notice that the hour is set for noon, when lights are needed least of all. The eventual effect of Earth Month — which used to be Earth Day — is to instill guilt for using energy at all, and thus to instill guilt for being happy, healthy and prosperous. By contrast, North Korea has Earth Month every month. Every week. Every day. It’s serious about low energy consumption — because it’s unable to raise it. Pretending for even a minute that the U.S. should use North Korea and simi- larly underdeveloped countries as ideals for en- ergy policy, is beyond absurd — it’s evil. Alan McKendreeSystems administrator in the School of NursingEarth Hour is a shamFIRING LINEAs students plan their schedules for another semester and navigate the often stressful registration process, they use the variety of course-planning tools at their disposal. They book advising appointments, consult degree audits and cobble together schedules. For help with that process, many turn to MyEdu, a website founded in 2008 that cen- tralizes scheduling, degree planning, professor reviews and academic advising in one online platform. In 2011 the UT System Board of Regents invested $10 million in MyEdu, ostensibly in an attempt to provide a more efficient and easy-to-use means of planning for graduation. The investment was in the news for months following the initial announcement, and debate swirled over whether it was worthwhile — especially juxtaposed against the regents’ other, more austere measures, like the 2012 refusal to allow UT-Aus- tin a modest tuition raise. At the time of the investment, UT President William Powers Jr., said that it “was a decision of the board, not a decision of the campus,” and that he would have spent the money differently. In response, the UT System released a statement describ- ing the investment as “a literal ‘gift’ from the Board of Re- gents directly to the 211,000 students matriculating in the system’s institutions.” In the time since, the furor has died down. In an interview with The Daily Texan, Powers said that “the MyEdu people have been extremely responsive to the campus needs ... The working relationship between us and the MyEdu people has been very cooperative.” When asked about the comment he made to the contrary in 2011, he said, “That’s history, and I would like to move ahead and say, ‘How can we move forward in a positive way?’” However, the question remains — was the regents’ invest- ment justified? And has it turned out as helpful to students as it was promised to be? The numbers show that since the investment, MyEdu has surged in popularity at UT. According to Frank Lyman, My- Edu’s chief product officer, roughly 90,000 students across the UT System use MyEdu today, compared to under 40,000 before 2011. UT-Austin specifically has shown a similar but less dra- matic surge; 90 percent of the undergraduate population uses the website now compared to 75 percent before. Clearly, the partnership between UT and MyEdu has benefited MyEdu. Michael Morton, former UT Senate of College Councils president, has a less positive view of the collaboration. “I don’t think it’s benefited UT students much at all,” Morton says. “From a student perspective, you’re not getting anything dif- ferent than you had prior to the deal.” MyEdu executives dispute that claim; Lyman points to the new sections of the website devoted to job searches and stu- dent profiles to attract potential employers. “We have about 20 current employers who are connecting with students on the MyEdu platform,” Lyman says. “We also scrape hundreds of thousands of jobs from around the web and suggest them to students based on things they put in their profile.” However, one metric suggests that for the vast majority of users, the changes since the collaboration began have not been quite as revolutionary as MyEdu supporters predicted. The job search and career profile sections of the website, while expanding, still only comprise respectively 12 and 5 percent of the site’s traffic. The rest of the site’s users mostly stick to the professor reviews and scheduling features, which, while extremely useful, were freely available before 2011. They’re also easily accessible outside of MyEdu — RateMy- Professors.com and Google Calendar offer similar services, although anyone using them would have to endure the in- convenience of opening two separate tabs. It’s impossible to quantify whether the collaboration will markedly improve four-year graduation rates as promised. But the question of whether the University should have part- nered with MyEdu is easier to answer. UT is welcome to invest its money in a wide variety of companies and enterprises, including online education aids like MyEdu. Based on the success the company has shown in increasing its foothold across the UT System, it’s proven to be a profitable venture. However, the regents’ unusually direct investment — which bypassed the University’s invest- ment company — and enthusiastic hype for MyEdu overstate the partnership’s benefits to UT students. MyEdu is a useful tool, and its popularity among the student population is a credit to its functionality. But to the average student reg- istering for courses this spring, it has not yet become the $10 million “gift” that was promised. For his part, President Powers prefers to let the issue lie. “If the point of your inquiry is, ‘was the original invest- ment worthwhile,’” he said, “that’s in the past and I’d like to focus on moving forward.” ‘‘MyEdu is a useful tool, and its popularity among the student population is a credit to its functionality. But to the average student registering for courses this spring, it has not yet become the $10 million “gift” that was promised. Journalism and higher educa- tion have a lot in common. Both are venerable institutions that form a bedrock of our civic way of life. And both are undergoing enormous change in response to a rapidly shifting environment, including technology and cost structures. Neither has settled into its next stable form. How we respond to change — indeed, whether we are the ones driving the change rather than merely being driven by it — is critical to the survival and relevance of each of our spheres. The question is how we drive that change. The print media will fail if it doesn’t use the Internet to reach readers. But it won’t succeed ei- ther if it becomes merely an In- ternet provider and ignores its core competence of gathering and analyzing news. Michael Rooney, the head of marketing for The Wall Street Journal, once made this point: Those who succeed focus on their core competency. In the case of The Wall Street Journal, this is as a producer of high- quality content and analysis. They use new platforms, but they focus on creating content no one else can duplicate. Me- dia that focus first on the plat- form instead of on the content tend to stray from their core competency and struggle. Universities face the same choices. A university that did not use technology would not only be unappealing for those raised as native users of tech- nology but would be failing in its mission to prepare students for adult life. On the other hand, strictly online universi- ties may be useful for people in a particular stage of their lives, but they shouldn’t be confused with first-class institutions, all of which are still residential universities where students and teachers become part of an ed- ucational community and learn from each other in profound and subtle ways that will never be fully replicated online. The ideal, of course, is an institu- tion that combines the best of both, and that is what the Uni- versity is aspiring to through several intensive projects. You’ve probably heard of the “flipped classroom,” and many of you are in one. In a flipped classroom, the traditional order of learning is reversed such that students study the material first, often by watching video lectures and taking online quizzes, be- fore then coming to class ready to interact with the teacher and each other. Technology is a key piece of this emerging model. You’ve probably also heard of our entry into the world of MOOCs, or massively open on- line courses. As part of the UT System we’ve joined the edX consortium, begun by Har- vard and MIT, and we’re offer- ing nine MOOCs in the com- ing school year — four this fall, five next spring. To date, more than 30,000 people around the world have signed up for these free courses, including “Ideas of the 20th Century,” “Energy 101,” “The Age of Globalization” and “Take Your Medicine — The Im- pact of the Drug Development.” There will be challenges around the growth of these courses, but the excitement is self-evident in the sheer number of new people the University of Texas will touch through this. UT is a high-quality content provider, in both discovery and teaching. Of course, we need to use new technology — includ- ing online delivery models — just as we have been using new technology to make discover- ies. And as long as we continue to focus first on our content, we’ll always be rising to our mission as a university of the first class. Powers is the president of the University of Texas at Austin.

Women in Aerospace for Leadership and Development launched a weather balloon nicknamed Bevo the Dragon on April 6 from a hangar in Hillsboro. The balloon — car- rying payloads of camcorders, cameras, probes and sensors — reached an altitude of 100,216 feet before popping and send- ing the equipment parachuting safely back down to Earth. Aerospace engineering senior Nicole Pinto said the balloon was able to create at- mospheric profiles by altitude to compare with theoretical models. The group successfully launched the balloon despite facing 20 mph surface winds. “The launching process was very eventful,” Pinto said. “It was really great to be able to do everything ourselves. It was exciting because when we let that balloon go it really felt like our own.” But the main goal of the launch, according to Pinto, was to pilot an aerospace cur- riculum concept that would allow freshmen to build and launch their own balloons. “We were able to get to near-space and perform valuable experiments for dirt cheap,” Pinto said. “Hope- fully this project will inspire not only our group of wom- en, but groups of incoming freshmen for years to come.” Ciara Waldron, aerospace engineering senior and presi- dent of the group, said she joined because she enjoys hands-on projects and sought to get more women involved in aerospace engineering. Waldron said the group hopes to recruit more women by volunteering at outreach events and publicizing their launches with videos and pictures. “I think WIALD is defying all odds. As women in aero- space, we are a very small mi- nority,” Waldron said. “But we have come together and prov- en time and time again that women are excellent leaders and can accomplish just about anything we set out to do.” Aerospace engineer- ing senior Rebekah Sosland founded the engineering group in fall 2009 after con- cluding with several aerospace professors that the major wasn’t retaining enough women. “What I learned in starting this organization is that when people work together you can create something so much more powerful and you can share it,” Sosland said. “You can share the brainpower, share the enthusiasm.” Sosland said the group helped her stay in aerospace and build a strong commu- nity among its members. Sosland envisions the group spreading to other branches in engineering one day. “It’s been a really rewarding experience for me watching this organization grow,” Sos- land said. “It really helps stu- dents see the benefit of what they learn in the classroom and see how it works in real life. Engineering group launches balloon to near-spaceBy Mark CarrionLEGACYFormer law dean dies at age 95 John Sutton, a former dean and professor in the School of Law, died Friday from complications due to old age at the San Angelo Community Hospital. Sut- ton was 95 years old. Sutton graduated from UT’s law school in 1941 after meet- ing his wife Nancy. Sutton went on to serve as an agent for the FBI during World War II, and later in the Judge Ad- vocate General’s Corps in the U.S. Army Reserves during the Korean War. After his service, Sutton joined the law school faculty in 1957 and continued teach- ing until his retirement at the age of 85. Sutton served as dean from 1979 to 1984 . “He got the law school through one of its worst times,” law professor David Anderson said. Those times began when the law school was search- ing for a new dean. Sev- eral members of the faculty, frustrated at the list of can- didates, were threatening to leave. But Sutton’s appointment and his leader- ship afterward helped ease tensions and restore order. Anderson, a colleague of Sutton, said they used to go watch quarter horse races in Texas and across the coun- try. Besides being a close friend, Anderson said Sutton was clear, helpful and an en- thusiastic teacher. Law professor John Dzien- kowski was both a student and colleague of Sutton’s. “He was very faculty- focused and very much a consensus leader,” Dzien- kowski said. “As a scholar, he was one of the early teachers of a subject called professional responsibility.” Sutton’s development of professional responsibility, which teaches students about the ethics of their future pro- fession, is now a specialty area taught at the law school. Ac- cording to Dzienkowski, Sut- ton also created an ethics code during the 1960s, and it be- came one of the major codes lawyers were governed by. “He was a very learned person,” Dzienkowski said. “In my mind, he was a dean that brought a lot of stability to the law school. He brought national recognition to UT’s law school.” From ethics codes to legal cases to horse races, Sutton exercised sound judgment. “The thing about lawyer- ing is that many people can look up the law, but few people have good judgment,” Dzienkowski said. “John had excellent judgment.” Sutton is survived by his wife Nancy, their son and daughter, four grandchil- dren and seven great-grand- children. A memorial ser- vice will be held for Sutton on Saturday in San Angelo.

Suspect in bombings charged, faces needleCanadian police thwart train plotTORONTO — Two men were arrested and charged with plotting a terrorist attack against a Canadian passenger train with sup- port from al-Qaida “ele- ments” in Iran, police said Monday. Chiheb Esseghaier, 30, and Raed Jaser, 35, who live in Montreal and Toronto, were planning to derail a Via Rail passenger train in Toronto but posed no imme- diate threat, the Royal Cana- dian Mounted Police said. “This is the first known al-Qaida planned attack that we’ve experienced in Can- ada,” Superintendent Doug Best told a news conference. RCMP Assistant Com- missioner James Malizia said the two men had “direction and guidance” from al-Qaida elements, though there was no rea- son to think the planned attacks were state-spon- sored. Police said the men did not get financial support from al-Qaida, but declined to provide more details. “It was definitely in the planning stage but not imminent,” RCMP chief su- perintendent Jennifer Stra- chan said. “We are alleging that these two individuals took steps and conducted activities to initiate a ter- rorist attack. They watched trains and railways.” Strachan said they were targeting a route, but didn’t say if it was a cross border route. Bruce Riedel, a CIA vet- eran who is now a Brook- ings Institution senior fel- low, said al-Qaida has had a clandestine presence in Iran since at least 2001 and that neither the terror group nor Tehran speaks openly about it. “The Iranian regime kept some of these elements un- der house arrest,” Riedel said in an email to The As- sociated Press. “Some prob- ably operate covertly. AQ members often transit Iran traveling between hideouts in Pakistan and Iraq.” Charges against the two men include conspiring to carry out an attack and murder people in associa- tion with a terrorist group. Police said the men are not Canadian citizens, but de- clined to say where they were from or why they were in the country. By Charmaine NoronhaAssociated PressBOSTON — A seriously wounded Dzhokhar Tsar- naev was charged in his hospital room Monday with bombing the Boston Mara- thon in a plot with his older brother and could get the death penalty for the attack that killed three people. Tsarnaev, 19, was charged by federal prosecutors with using and conspiring to use a weapon of mass destruction — a bomb — to kill. The criminal complaint containing the allegations shed no light on the mo- tive. But it gave a detailed sequence of events and cited surveillance-camera im- ages of Tsarnaev dropping off a knapsack with one of the bombs and using a cell- phone, perhaps to coordinate or detonate the blasts. The two pressure-cooker bombs sprayed shrapnel into the crowd at the finish line April 15. More than 200 people were wounded, and the dead included an 8-year- old boy. The Massachusetts col- lege student was listed in serious but stable condition at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center with a gun- shot wound to the throat and other injuries. His brother, Tamerlan, 26, died last week in a fierce gun- battle with police. By Denise Lavoie & Steve PeoplesAssociated PressChild-porn suspect nabbed in NicaraguaMANAGUA, Nicaragua — Police in Nicaragua have detained a U.S. man who was on the FBI’s 10 most- wanted fugitives as a sus- pect in a child pornography investigation, authorities confirmed Monday. Former school teacher Eric Justin Toth was de- tained Saturday in Esteli, a city near Nicaragua’s bor- der with Honduras, said Glenda Zavala, head of detectives for Nicaragua’s National Police. Toth’s arrest was based on an international detention request, Zavala said. He was expected to be presented to the media later Monday in Managua, Nicaragua’s capital. New York proposal may up smoking ageNEW YORK — No one under 21 would be able to buy cigarettes in the city under a proposal unveiled Monday, to make it the most populous place in America to set the minimum age that high. Extending a decade of moves to crack down on smoking in the nation’s larg- est city, the measure aims to stop young people from de- veloping a habit that remains the leading preventable cause of death, City Coun- cil Speaker Christine Quinn said as she announced the plan. Eighty percent of the city’s smokers started light- ing up before they were 21, officials say. —Compiled from Associated Press Reports This weekend was the same story but a different chapter for a team whose book might be nearing its final pages. Texas did what it has done all season long in its first Big 12 series against newcomer West Virginia — show flash- es of brilliance while failing to close the deal. Like they did in their first four series in Big 12 play, the Longhorns split the first two games before falling in Sunday’s rubber match. After yet another failed attempt to find their first series win of the season, With three departures al- ready this offseason, Texas has gone from a young, more experienced team back to a young team with almost no experience. A five-man 2011 recruiting class has dwindled down to two players, which could get even smaller if one them transfers. Julien Lewis was expected to become a major piece of the team as a sophomore. In- stead, he joined fellow guard Sheldon McClellan in Rick Barnes’ doghouse, conve- niently located on the bench, for much of the season. Mc- Clellan has already made the decision to transfer, along with forward Jaylen Bond, and there is a chance that Lewis may not be far behind. So the only acceptable ques- tion regarding Lewis’ future is this: is he better off stick- ing it out, or should he move on to a fresh start? At last month’s Texas Pro Day, Marquise Goodwin darted down the turf to catch passes, a blazing streak on a busy practice field. The wide receiver’s ob- vious knack for speed was impossible to ignore as he dashed back and forth, pausing to smile or dance after a particularly good catch. This week, the speed- ster will embark upon his next move: an NFL career. While his resume includes both four years as a Texas wide receiver, experience as an Olympic track ath- lete (he finished 10th in the long jump at the 2012 Lon- don Games) and a national championship in the long jump, Goodwin left behind a senior season on the track team in favor of training for the NFL. Goodwin nabbed the at- tention of scouts with his 4.27 40-yard dash at the NFL Combine in February, in which he nearly broke the record for the fastest time in combine history. His dash was also the fastest ever by a wide receiver. “Obviously there’s great speed,” head coach Mack Brown said. “He has the abil- ity to score every time he touches [the football]. He’s got really good hands and he can also return kicks.” But speed alone does not a prominent NFL career make, and Goodwin is quick to point out that his quick- ness on the field isn’t the only thing he’s got going for him. “Speed is a big part that allows me to do things like being open and catching the ball and being able to run routes, but I definitely have a lot more to me than just my speed,” Goodwin said. “I’m physical, I block and I can catch. I can run routes. I can get open.” And despite his success on the track, Goodwin was ready to swap long jumps and sprints for more time to focus on football. “I’ve been doing it a long time, and every opportunity I have I’ll be out watching [track],” Goodwin said. “But I’ve had this plan since I got to the University.” After seeing starts in his first three years as a Long- horn, Goodwin struggled at times during his senior season and only managed to tally 13 carries by the end of the season for three touchdowns. He made the most of his touches, though, as he also caught 26 passes for 340 yards and three touchdowns, av- eraging a career-best 13.1 yards per catch. Despite his numbers, Goodwin impressed at the Senior Bowl and turned in a solid performance at Texas’ Pro Day last month, including a 42-inch ver- tical jump. Analysts at CBSSports.com and NFL Network have pegged After another disheart- ening loss in a Big 12 se- ries rubber game Sunday, the Longhorns are hope- ful to get back on track Tuesday night when they welcome the Houston Cougars to Austin for a non-conference matchup. The Longhorns dropped their first game against Hous- ton this season, 4-3, last month in what was their only Tuesday road game of 2013. Texas will look to even the season series against the Cou- gars at home, where it is 17-8 and has won three consecu- tive non-conference games. Texas has been the ben- eficiary of strong pitch- ing at home all season long, as it had only al- lowed more than five runs in a game once at UFCU Disch-Falk Field before West Virginia scored six runs in a 10-inning loss Sunday. Non-conference road teams have aver- aged just 2.7 runs against the Longhorns in seven Tuesday games. Houston is in the midst of a strong season, as the Cou- gars are 27-13. In addition, they have performed well away from home, going 7-5 in road games. The Cougars’ biggest weapon on offense has been Frankie Ratcliff, who leads the team with 35 RBIs, nine doubles and six triples. The Longhorns will also have to account for Caleb Barker, who has hit three home runs with 32 RBIs, and Justin Mon- temayer, who has started every game this season and leads the team with a .314 batting average. With their loss to West Virginia on Sunday, the Longhorns are now 5-10 against Big 12 opponents this season. Texas has yet to win a conference series in 2013 and is tied for last place in the Big 12 with Texas Tech. Junior outfielder Mark Payton said Sunday’s loss in extra innings was perhaps the toughest one to cope with thus far, and he be- lieves his team needs to turn things around soon. “It is probably the worst one because we had our chances to win the game in the eighth and the ninth, but we didn’t get the big hit,” Payton said. “It is base- ball and we try to limit them these days.

He is the first decommit of this year’s class, after five Class of 2013 players deco- mitted from the Longhorns. In response, head coach Mack Brown instituted a no-visit policy for Texas commits, but that did not dissuade Knox from taking trips to other schools. Texas commit and All Saints running back Daniel Gresham told ESPN that he has no plans to decommit. —Darren MitchellAston adds recruit, deepening benchFormer Trinity Val- ley Community College point guard Krystle Hen- derson signed a National Letter of Intent to play at Texas in 2013-2014 on Monday.

The main moti- vation is to get on a team.” SPEED continues from page 7Despite losing a starting spot to a bunch of freshmen midway through the season, Lewis was still counted on by Barnes and the rest of the team to make big contribu- tions. Late in games against Iowa State and Oklahoma, Lewis came off the bench to make crucial three-pointers. Some of Texas’ late-season wins would not have come if Lewis doesn’t hit important shots down the stretch. But the fact remains that he was relegated to a supporting role, and the question over what his role will be heading into next season is looming over his head. There were times this past season when he and McClellan lacked the effort and convic- tion that Barnes wanted from them and they seemed discon- nected from the offense. Both seemed to settle for shots far from the basket, rather than taking the ball to the rim. If he has a chance to be- come a starter and primary contributor on another roster, then he may have to consider a change. A change in loca- tion could reenergize him and drive him to do what he needs to do to be successful. Or he could stick it out in Austin and use this demotion as motivation for next season. On a roster devoid of experi- ence, Lewis and rising junior Jonathan Holmes could be- come leaders on the team. Lewis came to Texas for a reason. Out of all the other offers he had and places he could have gone, he chose to come to Texas and to play for Barnes. Is that still a good enough reason to suit up for the Longhorns? Does he still want to play for Texas? For Barnes? Lewis has to decide if the same thing that drew him to Austin two years ago is still driving him now. If it isn’t, then he may join McClellan and Bond in their exodus out of Texas. But if what brought him here origini- nally is still there, then stay- ing and beating this situa- tion may be the best answer. Only he can decide. had too many of them and it has got to get turned around pretty quick.” Although a win Tuesday over Houston would not help the Longhorns climb up the Big 12 standings, a victory could provide a needed boost in confidence heading into their final two conference series. The Longhorns could get a lift from Erich Weiss, who may be back in the starting lineup af- ter not starting the final two games of the West Virginia series. The ju- nior third baseman, who took a pitch off his nose Friday night, pinch-hit in the fifth inning on Sun- day and stayed in for the rest of the game. LOSS continues from page 7the Longhorns sit at 5-10 in the Big 12, 4 1/2 games behind Oklahoma for the conference lead. In the most recent NCAA Tourna- ment forecast, the Oklaho- ma Sooners and the Kansas Jayhawks were the only two Big 12 teams slated to make the tournament. While Oklahoma’s lead doesn’t sound too large, it seems insurmountable when looking at the numbers. The Longhorns are hitting .265 as a team this season, but only .245 in Big 12 play while av- eraging 8.47 runners left on base in conference games. Texas’ No. 2 starter Dillon Peters has completely shut down Big 12 opponents this season, holding a 0.98 ERA in conference play. Most of Texas’ wins in Big 12 se- ries have come in game two with Peters on the mound as opposed to Parker French and Nathan Thornhill, who are a combined 0-5 in ten starts in Big 12 play this season. In order for the Long- horns to have a chance at the Big 12 title this season, they have to win at least five of their nine remaining conference games. However, given the Longhorns’ 21- 17 overall record, they will likely need to win their final 13 games to have any shot at the NCAA Tournament. Texas has shown that when it scores runs it has the pitch- ing to win every game, but it can’t shake inconsistency — as evidenced by a 9-8 record in one-run games and a 2-5 record in two-run games. For this season’s Longhorns, the only formula for success has been erupting for six or more runs. The Longhorns are 10-1 when they do that. After being blanked in a 1-0 loss last Friday and shut- ting West Virginia in a 12-0 win Saturday, Texas fought tooth and nail in Sunday’s series finale but fell to the Mountaineers, 6-3 after Co- rey Knebel gave up three runs in the decisive 10th inning. The Longhorns had just four hits and left nine on base Sunday. “It’s very difficult, obvious- ly,” head coach Augie Garrido said. “But as you go through this, if you can’t see the op- portunity in the next day, then you really are missing out the best part of baseball and that is your opportuni- ties — the next time you get to play.” Texas will begin its push Tuesday night to win out against Houston, a team who beat it 4-3 already this season.

The Longhorns have yet to win a Big 12 series this year. The Longhorns start- ed off the Big 12 Cham- pionship tournament with a shaky first round, but finished the second round with a six shot lead over Oklahoma State on Monday afternoon. Texas began the tour- nament struggling with a 10-over 290 in the first round, which at the time was five shots behind Oklahoma State, who shot a 5-over 285 in the first round. Play was suspended for one hour during the round due to the weather. The second round was much more kind to the Longhorns. Texas came back in the afternoon to shoot a 1-over 281 and took the lead away from Oklahoma State, who fell back with a 12-over 292 in the second round. TCU finished the second round in third place with an 18-over 578 through two rounds. Freshman Brandon Stone is in the lead for the individual title. Af- ter shooting an even 70 in the morning, Stone finished the day with a 3-under 137 head- ing into the clubhouse. Senior Cody Gribble is currently in sixth, six shots behind Stone with a 3-over 143. Texas will be- gin the third round Tuesday morning. Texas is adding another Shipley to its team. Bob Shipley, who served as a high school head football coach and ath- letics director around the state of Texas, has been hired as a football analyst at UT, Texas announced Monday morning. Shipley’s newly-creat- ed position is part of the player personnel depart- ment and will involve ad- ministrative work, showing potential student athletes and their families around campus and planning sum- mer football camp and the high school coaching clinic. Shipley will work closely with fellow new hire Patrick Suddes, director of player personnel. “Having been a college coach, a longtime high school coach and having been around the program for almost 10 years with my sons, this is a position that just seemed right for me,” Shipley said. “As- sisting with recruiting is something that I have ex- perience in and love to do.” Shipley will start his new role after spending four years as head coach and athletics director at Brownwood High School. Of his four children, two are former or current Texas players. Jordan Shipley holds Texas’ re- cord for receptions and is currently a wide receiver for the Jacksonville Jag- uars. Bob’s younger son, Jaxon, has started at wide receiver for the Long- horns each of the last two years. “We’re so excited that Bob Shipley is joining our staff,” head coach Mack Brown said in a statement. “He’s been a highly suc- cessful high school coach who has a great deal of re- spect from his peers. His addition to our staff im- mediately makes our high school relations and play- er personnel department stronger. We’re thrilled to have him on board.” FOOTBALLBrandon StoneFreshman The Celtic Cowboys Sports & Social Club, found- ed in 2004, houses both the men and ladies Gaelic teams in addition to soccer, hurling and golf teams. The group’s Irish roots have built a great- er sense of community be- yond their sports teams. “When Pat started this, it was exclusively people that had come over from Ireland and were trying to hang out and not feel so alone,” said Amy Swanholm, chair of the team’s leadership com- mittee. “He’s been doing it for about 10 years now and there’s still a lot of Irish people involved, but there’s also people that just think they’re awesome. I mean, I’m Swedish, I’m not Irish at all. A lot of the girls on the team aren’t, but it’s just a fun group of people.” The team’s bustling social life is simply a bonus to car- rying on proud Irish tradi- tions throughout the world. “Football was outlawed by the English when they came to Ireland,” O’Connor said. “It’s of huge significance to Ireland because the Irish language was spoken by ev- eryone in Ireland and that was banned, and meetings of groups of five or more were banned and then sports were banned. So now every- thing’s kind of to uphold the culture and heritage. One thing that is still flourishing is the GAA and our national sports, so it’s fantastic to see it around the world because Ireland’s so small.” The English acoustic singer-songwriter packs self-hatred and failed relationships into beautifully crafted songs on Frank Turner’s fifth studio release, Tape Deck Heart. The folk- punk genre sounds like an oxymoron, but he somehow makes it work, switching between tender fingerpicking and aggres- sive four-chord progressions.

Life & ArtsTuesday, April 23, 20139received negative ratings on multiple consecutive albums. Following a 2012 trip to Jamai- ca, Snoop turned heads when he announced a name change after a spiritual awakening and conversion to Rastafarianism. Whether the move is sole- ly for money and attention, no one knows. That being said, the album is surprisingly good. Executive producer Major Lazer, aka Dip- lo, does wonders for the reggae sound, handling production on 10 out of 12 tracks. Almost ev- ery song features a guest vocal- ist to add to the communal feel of the album. Lead single “Ashtrays and Heartbreaks” centralizes the album’s purpose of commemo- rating Snoop’s deceased musi- cian friends. Miley Cyrus sings the chorus, “Raise a glass to the memories and set ‘em free/and fill up all those ashtrays.” The song sounds a tad overproduced and Cyrus’ multitracked vocals are overwhelming. On the other hand, Snoop’s sung verses feel completely natural and genu- ine, providing a more emotional outlet than his gangster rap. When Snoop Lion isn’t denouncing his former gangster lifestyle, he reverts to his old fa- vorite lyrical subject: marijuana. Songs like “Smoke The Weed” advocate the herb’s benefits in a laid-back style, coupling the state of being high with a raised environmental conscience. The worst song, “Fruit Juice,” makes up for its ques- tionable subject matter by be- ing unintentionally comedic. Snoop declares his love for juices of various kinds, happi- ly singing “pineapple, mango/ my taste buds tango.” After listening to Reincar- nated, it’s impossible to hate Snoop Lion. Snoop trades his trademark lines for more so- cially responsible messages. Excluding his possible com- modification of the Rastafarian religion, the album is meant to make you feel good and it mostly succeeds.

Buble’s latest album delivers the sound that helped him become Canada’s biggest star. ALBUMScontinues from page 12 competition, said singer- songwriter and folk music is powerful in its simplicity and vulnerability. “Because it’s so stripped down, the music and the story of the song really have to play off of each other well to work,” Shirey said. “A good folk song- writer is just a good sto- ryteller that can use the added dimension of an in- strument to make you feel even more emotion.” Many genres of music garner elements of the- atricality with large stage productions and other dis- tractions. Shirey said with singer-songwriter and folk music, there isn’t anything for the performers to hide their lyrics behind. The performers have to put ev- erything out on stage. “While it would obvi- ously be incredible to win, I’m mostly just honored to be selected and so ex- cited for the opportunity to perform for the judges and other people from the Austin music scene,” Kingsbury said. “I grew up always wanting to be a singer and just loving music. It’s weird to think about because it’s just sort of been there for as long as I remember — this idea that I was meant to do it.” No matter who wins, all eight performers will have the opportunity to perform for important people in the music industry. Shirey said this competition is just the starting point for many of the musicians. “It’s not just for hard core folkies or slam poets, but they’ll love it too,” Shirey said. “I’ve listened to all the musicians and they all have something really special to bring to the night, and who knows, maybe you might just find a musician you’ll want to keep up with.” 10 COUPS/L&A Campus area salon 3025 Guadalupe (Next to Wheatsville Co-op and Changos) 512-476-4267M-F 8-9 | SaT 8-7 | SuN 12-6No appointment Needed. roCk the Cut and roCk this deal! 26 area salons to serve you & your Family!

She was young, successful and happy, with a boyfriend and a job working for Jesse Jack- son’s presidential campaign. Three months later, Lewis-Thornton received a letter from the Red Cross regarding the blood she donated and asked her to come in. She left the Red Cross that day, HIV positive at the age of 23. Nearly 30 years later, Lewis-Thornton is still fight- ing her disease, but she is focused on changing the stereotypes associated with HIV/AIDS in America. On Wednesday she will speak at the Texas Student Activity Center about this issue and its stigmas. The event is pre- sented by the African Ameri- can Culture Committee. Lewis-Thornton tested positive when much was still unknown about HIV and AIDS. As this strange new illness ravaged America, re- searchers could not get a grip on the disease. “At that time we didn’t know HIV was a death sen- tence,” Lewis-Thornton said. “I remember thinking when I left the Red Cross, ‘It’s al- right, I only have HIV, and I can handle this.’” Lewis-Thornton also re- members intense confusion. HIV was mostly associated with homosexual, drug-using white men at the time. Lewis- Thornton was drug and alco- hol free, heterosexual and mo- nogamous in her relationships. She didn’t understand how an educated and successful wom- an was placed in this situation. “People never seem to think it could happen to them,” Lewis-Thornton said. “That is the major issue I want to come across. You are the only one who can keep you safe.” For seven years Lewis- Thornton kept her HIV a complete secret. She contin- ued to progress in political organizations and worked on several presidential and sena- torial campaigns. She did not let her situation come across in her work and most of her friends and family were com- pletely in the dark. When she turned 30, however, her T-cell count dropped below 200, and her virus transitioned into AIDS. At this point, Lewis-Thorn- ton knew she had to tell her close friends and fam- ily about the illness that was slowly destroying her body. She said she was most worried about informing Jackson of her illness. After working together on two presidential campaigns, he had become like a father to Lewis-Thornton. “I’ll never forget when he said, ‘I loved you before AIDS, and I’ll love you after,’” Lewis Thornton said. Lewis-Thornton had no intention of going into mo- tivational speaking. It never even crossed her mind. One day, however, a Chicago high school teacher begged her to speak with her students about the realities of HIV/AIDS. She was hesitant at first, but was ultimately convinced. As the class periods changed, some students left and the next class filed in. But Lewis-Thornton noticed that throughout the day, some stu- dents did not leave. Lewis-Thornton asked the teacher why some students were being kept in the room for multiple lectures. She asked if it was a punishment. According to Lewis-Thorn- ton, the teacher replied, “A few of the kids have been skipping class to hear you speak again. They’ve refused to leave.” The actions of these stu- dents flipped a switch in Lewis-Thornton’s mind. Three weeks later, she quit her job and decided to start speaking for groups interested in the truth about HIV/AIDS. She believes it is her calling. “I walked away from that high school and couldn’t shake this feeling of gratitude,” Lew- is-Thornton said. “I knew I had the duty to educate every- one I could about this illness.” Lewis-Thornton’s lectures are typically open forums where no question is too pro- vocative. She has few reser- vations addressing intimate details about her story and the effects of HIV/AIDS. “You can actually see the girls squirm when I tell them I have 15- to 21-day menstrual cycles,” Lewis- Thornton said. Lewis-Thornton believes that HIV/AIDS should be as relevant today as it was in the early 1990s. According to the Centers for Disease Control, one person con- tracts HIV every nine-and- a-half minutes. She said that although it is not a “sexy” topic, HIV/AIDS is too im- portant to glaze over. Abigail Emery, a biology pre-med freshman and a bud- ding AIDS activist, agrees with Lewis-Thornton. She will be attending Lewis-Thornton’s lecture Wednesday. “It is an issue that has seemed to become nonexis- tent in the past decade,” Emery said. “There is still so much that must be done.” Perhaps Lewis-Thorn- ton’s new perspective and approach to AIDS aware- ness will give UT students a reformed understanding of HIV/AIDS relevance today. Lewis-Thornton hopes to inspire a new gen- eration to stand up in the fight against AIDS and its negative stereotypes, one lecture at a time.

Fortunately, a ray of light poked through the clouds of statuses and pho- tos in the form of a Facebook event — the two-mile Nike Grub Run. Panting and wob- bling the two miles along the sidewalks of campus, we en- countered several onlookers who snickered at our dying gasps for air. But the tomato, lettuce and onion sandwich waiting at the end of the run held the priceless vitamins ensuring our survival. Considering that there were a limited number of sandwiches and pizza was the only option for slower runners, the fight-or-flight adrenaline propelled us to the cherished Jimmy John’s sandwiches. That evening we devoured the vegetable plate at Tejas Coffee and, to the horror of an economics graduate student, shoveled in pounds of roast beef and strawberries at a Friday af- ternoon fellowship lunch. Even though the idea stemmed from a whimsical challenge, the Forty Acres Fast highlighted the under- utilized resources around campus. My friends and I have teamed up with the Dean of Students Office to spearhead the Earn Your Orange program, an initia- tive that will allow students to earn honorary certificates for attendance at Univer- sity events within a specific area. For example, a student could earn a certificate in leadership by attending the annual Texas Leadership Summit and other similarly grouped events. Since the fast I have eaten at Kinsolvoing Dormitory a couple of times, and while I will temporarily avoid the pizza line, spinach lasagna has never tasted so heavenly.

In the past six hours, I had only scarfed down a bag of Doritos, and the desperation to find sustenance displaced all concerns for my papers, meetings and safety. Luck- ily, lying lonely alongside the trash can, an empty jar of Nutella offered a glimmer of hope. I opened and inspected the inside of the container which still had lumps of choc- olate spread on the bottom. Without hesitation, I plunged my bare fingers into the jar. As I sat in the lobby with my back against the trash can, scraping globs of chocolate into my mouth and ponder- ing all of the horrible things this mysterious jar possibly en- countered, I realized I had hit rock bottom. This whole situation began the night my two friends and I decided to attempt what we deemed “the Forty Acres Fast.” Offering both a challenge and spontaneity, the fast was a week-long commitment dur- ing which we were neither to purchase food nor consume any previously acquired suste- nance. We limited ourselves to the free food offered at student organization meetings. While the first couple of days were manageable, the latter part of the week had our minds and bodies on the struggle bus. Based on Maslow’s hierarchy of needs, we were surviving meal- to-meal — which mostly meant no breakfast, pizza for lunch or pizza for dinner. We scoured Know Events and implemented a group text dedicated to our mission, but the best resources of intel were our informed friends, who never missed an opportunity to “accidentally” drop crack- ers or candy on the floor to test our commitment. Whether we were invited to a Voices Against Violence dis- cussion to define our concept of masculinity to 40 other students or mingling with computer science professors at a fajita buffet, our Forty Acres Fast pushed us into meetings and lectures that were both for- eign to us and nearly void of other students. The biggest challenge, aside from finding food, was definitely dealing with poor nutrition. Cookies and greasy pizza could only carry us for a couple days before we be- came lethargic. In fact, the midnight trek up the hill on 24th Street became a sweaty, draining mountain. Rolling out of bed on a bar- ren Wednesday morning, I realized that if I wanted to re- main sane I had to get some 12 L&AKelsey McKinney, Life & Arts Editor Life & Arts12Tuesday, April 23, 2013So you stumble upon a game being played in Zilker Park. The players are clutch- ing what looks like a vol- leyball to their chests and crashing shoulders as if they were playing rugby. But every few steps the ball is dribbled like a basketball or kicked like a soccer ball. No, this is not some mashed-up American hybrid sport. This is Gaelic football. Gaelic football has been played in Ireland for centu- ries and was codified in the late 1800s after the forma- tion of the Gaelic Athletic Association. Irish children grow up playing the sport and the best players receive the honor of representing their parishes on county teams. The Celtic Cowboys Sports & Social Club created Austin’s first ladies Gaelic football team in September. “It’s a good time to join,” said Pat Doab, team coach and President and Co- Founder of the Celtic Cow- boys Sports & Social Club. “Everyone’s still learning the game. There are only two Irish ladies that have seen the game before, and at that they haven’t played in years so they’re still coming back in.” The game involves skills like dribbling, kicking and soloing, which is dropping the ball to kick it back up to your hands. Players have to do something with the ball after every four steps they take, whether it’s bouncing the ball, soloing or passing it off to another player. Each team has a goal with a cross bar. If the ball goes over the bar, a point is scored. If the ball is kicked under the crossbar and into the net, a three-point goal is scored. Scores are kept in a goal-point format. For example, if a team scored 3-5, that means they have 14 points total because three times three is nine and nine plus five is 14. Simple enough, right? The team has become more than just another typical adult league. To the team’s Irish members, Gaelic football is a comforting reminder of home. Team member Orla O’Connor moved from Ire- land to Austin in October and joined the team soon after. “For someone who is Irish, what it means is that you have a piece of home when you go away,” O’Connor said. “Austin and Ireland are so far removed from one another, physically and culturally, so it helps you to not miss home so much.” Talent manifests itself in many corners of the Forty Acres, but eight singer- songwriters at UT have been chosen to compete for the chance to perform at this year’s Kerrville Folk Festival. The eight singer-song- writers will play original folk and country music at the live competition at the Cactus Cafe. The songwriters will be judged by an esteemed panel comprised of booking agents, studio owners and others in the music businesses. Public relations senior Kris- tin Kingsbury, one of the eight performers, said her passion for singing and writing songs goes back to childhood. “I wrote a few songs when I was still in elementary school, but when I got my first guitar at 13, I really be- gan to get the writing bug,” Kingsbury said. “My first love will always be singing, but songwriting is a very close second.” Kingsbury said that in high school one of her professors nicknamed her the “songbird.” She was in- spired by Maya Angelou’s poem, “I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings.” “The poem immediately became an anthem for me,” Kingsbury said. “As the poem states, ‘the caged bird sings of freedom’ and in the same way, I feel that singing and songwriting gives me that freedom.” Theatre and dance fresh- man James Johnson, another of the performers, said in ad- dition to freedom, he experi- ences “musical hunger,” an uncontrollable need to write music. Johnson’s inspiration comes from memories and emotions he felt compelled to write about in his life. “I write about anything I feel. Those two songs that I will perform were written as an outlet for some feelings that were trapped inside of me,” Johnson said. “If I feel something and it doesn’t just pass as most feelings do, I know I have my next song.” Kingsbury said her favor- ite part about songwriting has always been the lyrics and being able to craft songs that convey a feeling while still maintaining a sense of mystery. Writing songs that range from issues about re- lationships of any kind to songs about how she sees the world, Kingsbury said she uses music to make sense of her life. Johnson says music al- lows him to find closure when he cannot find words to describe how he feels, and he hopes his songs will help someone find the same closure he has found. “I want to be able to show people that they are not the only ones that feel the way they do,” Johnson said. “Music unites us. I feel like no matter your race or ethnicity, we all under- stand music. Music is the one thing we can all create and all understand. And to be able to create something that powerful is an expe- rience that I could never quite explain.” Will Shirey, pre-public relations sophomore and event coordinator for the Kerrville singer-songwriter The artist formerly known as Snoop Dogg begins his new album, Reincarnated, by warn- ing listeners in an inexplicably acquired Jamaican accent of the dangers associated with the gangster lifestyle. It’s hard to imagine the old Snoop singing “I can’t believe I’m out here kil- lin’ my community,” on “Tired of Running.” Keep in mind this is the same artist who glorified pimping and murder for years. “There’s so much death, there’s so much destruction, and so much mayhem and there’s so much misunder- standing in music. We’re losing so many great musicians ... and we don’t love ‘em while they here. And I want to be loved while I’m here.” To be reincarnated, as the album name suggests, one has to die first. Let’s be clear: Snoop Dogg’s career was close to death. In the last decade he turned to reality TV with “Snoop Dogg’s Father Hood,” and was banned from performing in Australia, England and Norway.
