Democratic candidates in a crowded race for the House District 49 seat attempted to differentiate themselves from each other during a moderated discussion on campus Monday. Speaking to a predominantly student audience, the candi- dates emphasized their progres- sive stances on issues such as tuition, campus carry, affordable housing and abortion in a fo- rum moderated by Daily Texan staffer Forrest Milburn and Jor- dan Pahl, Student Government state relations director. Lawyer Aspen Dunaway, former legisla- tive staffer Huey Fischer, Austin ISD trustee Gina Hinojosa, for- mer NARAL Pro-Choice Texas staffer Blake Rocap and housing rights advocate Heather Way were present at the debate. At- torney Kenton Johnson and criminal defense attorney Mat- thew Shrum were not present at the debate. Fischer and Way, both of whom are UT graduates, and the latter of whom serves on the UT Law School faculty, said they would pay close attention to higher education issues, such as substandard student housing. “I have a long and deep track record here fighting in Austin for affordable housing,” Way said. “That is a big issue for a lot of students who can’t afford the luxury housing going up around West Campus.” Candidates also emphasized their anti-establishment creden- tials. Dunaway said he was the only candidate with a tenant bill of rights to help students work effectively with landlords. Hi- nojosa said she has fought many political battles with state regu- lators to preserve public schools. Fischer said he had more than $40,000 in student loan debt and said he would be a “worker’s rights champion.” “I’m the queer son of a once- undocumented mom from Mexico and a Jewish liberal dad from Brooklyn,” Fischer said. “I’m not the guy Greg Abbott wants to see in that building down the block.” All the candidates addressed the issue of college affordability and diversity. Dunaway said the legislature needs to regulate and freeze tuition costs, and both Dunaway and Hinojosa said more funding needs to flow into College of Educa- tion associate profes- sors Keffrelyn Brown and Anthony Brown recently published the book “Black Intellectual Thought in Education: The Missing Traditions of Anna Julia Cooper, Carter G. Woodson, and Alain LeRoy Locke” in an effort to provide a counter-narrative in the study of African-Ameri- can intellectuals and cul- ture across history. Cooper, Woodson and Locke were prominent black scholars and phi- losophers in the early 20th century who spoke out on subjects includ- ing race, gender, edu- cation and art. During their time, they were faced with an academic and social climate that sought to minimize the influence of their work, according to Keffrelyn Brown. “Those particular au- thors — the ones that we highlighted — are just an example of very pro- lific writers and prolific educators whose work has not been canonized,” Brown said. “Clearly that would be connect- ed to larger perceptions over what was consid- ered legitimate work and who could produce it at the time when they were writing.” Woodson, one of the book’s subjects, initially founded Black History Month’s predecessor, Negro History Week, to act as a counter-narra- tive to a story that was leaving out important black voices, Keffrelyn Brown said. High schools across the country will soon introduce a new computer science course to their curriculums, thanks to an initiative by the Univer- sity’s UTeach program. UTeach, a program that encourages undergraduate STEM students to pursue teaching careers, is promot- ing a UT-designed course to enhance computer science education for high school students and teachers. The course, “Computer Science Principles,” was de- veloped through a partner- ship between UT’s computer science department and the College of Education and is expected to gain an en- dorsement from the College Board. After developing the course, UT reached out to its 44 partner universities across the country to introduce the curriculum to high schools in those areas. The course aims to attract a more diverse pool of students than the cur- rent Advanced Placement computer science course. “It is a broader curricu- lum, encouraging to young women and developed to be a lot more collaborative and inviting,” said Alicia Beth, UTeach research and evalu- ation manager. “It will focus on conceptual understanding and computational thinking to solve problems.” Before the course becomes available later this fall, UTeach instructors will train high school teachers to teach the course. UTeach students are currently work- ing to design computer sci- ence content for teachers, since many of them had difficulty developing com- puter science curriculums for younger students. “For [computer science] majors trying out teaching, the early UTeach classes do not provide them the op- portunity to teach [computer science]-related content,” UTeach director Kimberly Hughes said. “We are help- ing them prepare content kits so that students who have [computer science] in- For many viewers, the main attraction of Sun- day night’s Super Bowl was not the Denver Bron- cos’ 24-10 win over the Carolina Panthers but the ads that aired throughout the game. Students and faculty from the Moody College of Communication live- tweeted critiques of Super Bowl advertisements using the hashtag #AdGradBowl during the game. In the fourth annual AdGrad Bowl, commu- nication professor Gary Wilcox formed a team made up of advertising professors and students to critique and monitor ads on social media for their emo- tional impact and brand visibility. Wilcox said the bowl gave students a chance to converse with advertisers over Twitter. “Most agencies try to showcase their talents dur- ing the Super Bowl, and who better to critique that talent than the passionate advertising students and UT law students have been representing immigrant fami- lies who have experienced persecution from their home countries for over a decade. Each semester, the UT Im- migration Clinic selects a dozen law students to repre- sent low-income immigrants from all over the world, both in federal courts and the Department of Homeland Security. The clinic focuses on immigrants seeking protection, or asylum status, from politi- cal, religious and gender-based violence in their home coun- tries. Unlike in criminal cases, immigrants are not provided with an appointed counsel. Without the students at the im- migration clinic, many of these immigrants would not receive the help they need to escape persecution and abuse in their home countries, according to Elissa Steglich, an attorney at law and clinical professor at the Immigration Clinic. “For me, the most rewarding part is seeing the students take responsibility for these cases,” Steglich said. “We are working to provide quality representa- tion to those who would other- wise lack it.” Since law professor Bar- bara Hines founded the clinic in 1999, it has partnered with a variety of non-profit legal organizations that also work to represent immigrants. While the Immigration Clinic has represented immigrants from all over the world, the majority of its clients are from 1Tuesday, February 9, 2016@thedailytexanfacebook.com/dailytexanServing the University of Texas at Austin community since 1900dailytexanonline.com bit.ly/dtvidSPORTS PAGE 6COMICS PAGE 7LIFE&ARTS PAGE 8UT combats nicotine addiction.

Maliha Mazhar, University Democrats communications director, said Fischer, whom University Democrats en- dorsed, stood apart from other candidates because of his ex- tensive student involvement on campus and leadership on issues such as campus carry. “He made a really strong case on why he would be the best advocate for stu- dents,” Mazhar said. “He re- ally tried to get campus carry to be stopped, and he was a great aid.” Journalism senior Shadan Larki said she thought the forum was enlightening but would need to do more re- search to choose a candidate. “Looking at their propos- als and doing more research after tonight, I think doing that is going to help me differ- entiate [between candidates],” Larki said. chose on his The him. paper four before primary were his details choices better. paper, ble, “the another managing Siddiqui, make but ic “watched movies viser passed morning after cer. himself, torial Texan of 2014. half-a ism even college and sphere quo doing former Jack design “feel a made seriously “The purpose of do- ing that work was really to illuminate voices, ex- periences, people who had been disregarded,” Brown said. “At that par- ticular time, Dr. Wood- son was concerned that there was a whole his- tory of a people that was not being represented in official curriculum and unofficial curriculum.” Kayla Celeste, a radio- tevlevision-film and Af- rican & African diasspora senior , said Black History Month should focus on more than Martin Luther King Jr. and Malcolm X. “So many more black people have done so many more amazing things than Malcolm X,” Celeste said. “Those who continue to perpetuate a white, pa- triarchal society want to limit these stories, and they don’t want us to know we have this poten- tial.” Advertising senior Cris- tina Musso said Black His- tory Month is important in light of what she sees as inequalities in the percep- tion of the achievements of black Americans. “Until we get to a point where people are just con- sidered people, and black achievements are just con- sidered achievements, this month needs to be cel- ebrated,” Musso said. Brown said there is a con- nection between the need for Black History Month and the need for Black Lives Matter. “They’re connected through what might be rec- ognized as anti-blackness,” Brown said. “The history of practices that have dele- gitimated and, in many cases, dehumanized peo- ple of African descent in this country.” Central America. The clinic currently has 30 cases open, according to Steglich. “[Working with this clinic] is the best thing I’ve done in law school,” Michael O’Brien, a second-year law student, said. “It’s nice to feel like you’re doing something that has a real impact on people who are dealing with issues that people in this country have never had to deal with.” Students working for the Immigration Clinic have been combating fam- ily detention policies since early 2006, when the T. Don Hutto center in Tay- lor, Texas, began detaining immigrant women. The clinic succeeded in ending detention practices at the Hutto immigration cen- ter in 2009 but has since been working against fam- ily detention practices in facilities in Karnes City and Dilly, Texas. According to Steglich, the program has had a 100 per- cent success rate in that none of their clients have ever been deported. “This work definitely gives a voice to the voiceless,” said Julio Gonzales, Plan II and sociology junior and intern for the pro- gram. “The students here are dealing with people who don’t have a lot of power. They’re making sure they can live a life like those of us who were privileged enough to be born in America.” professors at UT?” Wil- cox said. “Participants of AdGrad Bowl have the opportunity to inter- act with subject-matter experts, professors and passionate advertising students on the brink of joining the industry.” Matthew McCutchin, an advertising and pub- lic relations lecturer who participated in the panel, said there was a lot of in- consistency with the ad- vertisements this year. “Maybe I’m biased, but two of my faves were created by our former AdGrad students: ‘Avo- cados From Space,’ by GSD&M’s Leigh Muzs- lay Browne and Jon Wil- liamson, and Apartments. com’s ‘Moving Day,’ writ- ten by RPA’s Andrew Haj- jar,” McCutchin said. Wilcox said the team was looking for great work that was memorable and impactful. “Every Super Bowl, the stakes get high- er and higher, which means innovative creativity, higher media prices and larger audienc- es,” Wilcox said. “With 30 second spots costing up to $5 million and an au- dience close to 120 mil- lion, this is a big event for brands.” Advertising junior Amy Tingle, who tuned into the live conversation, said the ads fell flat for her this year. “There were definitely ones that … stood out. What I liked and what I thought were good are two different things,” Tin- gle said. “I think everyone can agree that the [‘Pup- pymonkeybaby’] one was really weird and uncom- fortable. However, it was a trending topic on Twitter within minutes, so if they wanted attention, that was certainly the way to go.” Tingle said the event was a good learn- ing experience for advertising students. “It gave students the chance to apply what we’re learning in class to real events,” Tingle said. “It was also a fun way to connect with professors and interact with each other around a fun event in our field.” Name: 4456/Rendezwho; Width: 19p4; Depth: 4 in; Color: Black, 4456/Rendez- who; Ad Number: 4456Name: 4443/University Catholic Center; Width: 19p4; Depth: 4 in; Color: Black, 4443/University Catholic Center; Ad Num- ber: 444322NEWSTuesday, February 9, 2016Joshua Guerra | Daily Texan StaffColin Fullerton, a second-year graduate guitar performance student, practices classical guitar in the Music Recital Hall.

Technological innovations are allowing HIV-positive residents of Austin to receive faster, more efficient care to battle nicotine addiction. The UT Tobacco Research and Evaluation Team is part- nering with AIDS Arms, an organization in Dallas that provides treatment and coun- seling to people with HIV/ AIDS, in order to develop a tobacco cessation program known as eTobacco Protocol for Texas residents. The pro- gram refers patients to Texas Quitline, which offers free tobacco cessation services such as a two-week nicotine replacement therapy and five telephone-based cessation counseling sessions. Through the eTobacco Protocol, AIDS Arms, along with the help of the UT To- bacco Research and Evalu- ation Team, has established an electronic referral link to Quitline’s services that was not previously available. AIDS Arms is the first HIV clinic in the state to incorporate the Quitline protocol, which uses electronic medical records to deliver tobacco cessation re- sources, into its services. “Professors at UT-Austin developed this program, and we are one of the sites that is doing the program,” said Tori Hobbs, chief development of- ficer for AIDS Arms. “If you are a client, and you smoke, and you want to stop smok- ing, they can help connect you to the resources.” Hobbs said the main reason why AIDS Arms partnered with UT was because the ini- tiative would work well in large cities like Austin. “Lots of people who are HIV positive also smoke, so we’re interested in the overall health of our patients and thought this was a great program,” Hobbs said. “It’s free for any patient who wants to do it.” Shelley Karn, program director for the Tobacco Re- search and Evaluation Team at UT, said the program does not focus on treatment but on outreach, especially for people who might not be able to pay for tobacco cessation resources. “We facilitate a source of getting a referral in place, and AIDS Arms will make a re- ferral to the Texas Quitline,” Karn said. “We don’t do the tobacco counseling.” Dr. John T. Carlo, chief executive officer for AIDS Arms, said the AIDS Arms program differs from other HIV initiatives thanks to modernized technology. “[It differs because of] the integration with our informa- tion technology systems to better approach awareness between both the providers and the patients,” Carlo said. “There’s definitely something unique about this program that’s utilizing information technology that’s not seen through other initiatives.” Michael Brick always chose his words carefully. So on March 5, 2014, he took his time flipping through The Daily Texan in front of him. Members of the news- paper staff had traveled to four different cities the day before to report on Texas’ primary elections, and they were waiting eagerly to hear his evaluation of their work. He pointed out a few details he liked and some choices that could have been better. Then he closed the paper, laid it flat on the ta- ble, looked up and declared: “That was the best paper of the year.” He left the room without another word. According to former managing editor Shabab Siddiqui, Brick knew how to make an impact. “He wasn’t sentimental, but he had a flair for dramat- ic moments,” Siddiqui said. “Little flairs of a guy who’s watched too many sports movies or western dramas.” Brick, a journalist and ad- viser for The Daily Texan, passed away early Monday morning in Austin, Texas after a battle with colon can- cer. He was 41. A Daily Texan alumnus himself, Brick served as edi- torial adviser for The Daily Texan between the summer of 2013 and the summer of 2014. In his fedora, vest and half-undone tie, he brought a sense of professional- ism to the basement office, even when surrounded by college students in shorts and flip-flops. “He created an atmo- sphere that raised the status quo of what journalists were doing in the basement,” said former managing editor Jack Mitts, who served as design editor under Brick. “He didn’t make any of us feel like kids or that this was a learning experience — he made it feel like this was it.” Taking student journalists seriously meant delivering real — and at times pain- fully honest — criticism, said former managing editor Jordan Rudner, who worked as news editor during Brick’s tenure. “You could tell every- thing he said was sincere. That meant that he only gave compliments that he meant, and when you deserved crit- icism, you’d get it,” Rudner said. “It’s really easy, when you’re dealing with students, to either couch your criti- cisms or lower your expecta- tions, but he never did that.” Brick approached every job he had at the Texan with equal enthusiasm, according to Stephen Scheibal, director of media relations and com- munity engagement for Dell Medical School. Schiebal, who joined the Texan along- side Brick in 1992, said he could tell Brick was talented right away. “He just had this incred- ible enthusiasm for the job,” Schiebal said. “He had a in- credible enthusiasm to do the job better and better — he became a really fantastic writer, a really great stylist, and it had as much to do with his enthusiasm for get- ting better as it did with his considerable natural talent.” Rudner said Brick cared as much about the Texan in his capacity as an adviser as he had in his own time working on staff. Brick’s passion for the students was visible during his daily critiques, known as “Brick- downs,” and when he was playing in weekly “Staffsket- ball” games. “He didn’t want to be the star of the show; he wasn’t angling for a byline — he was helping us to want to angle for that byline, and he helped so many other reporters want to aspire to that same level of commitment and energy that he had,” Rudner said. “All the energy that he had as a staff- er, he gave to us.” Over the course of his career, Brick reported for The New York Times and authored two books — one about Texas public schools and another about motor- cycle racing. He left his role as Texan adviser in 2014 to return to full-time writing, becoming a senior writer at the Houston Chronicle, a po- sition he held until his death. Siddiqui said the breadth of Brick’s writing career proves Brick took the advice he often gave to his students: “to get off your ass and knock on doors.” “The guy lived until 41, but he did the full circle of things that most people don’t finish even when they’re 70,” Sid- diqui said. “He got in and out of the New York Times be- fore most people were even thinking about getting in. He did the full circle of things that I think most people don’t get to do who live twice as long as he did.” Scheibal said the same qualities that made Brick a great reporter also made him a great friend. “He listened to everything, he absorbed everything — he was always able to run things through this wonderfully human filter that he had,” Scheibal said. “He was able to see the small details that really told the stories.” “I have hundreds of mem- ories of Mike,” he added. “I’m going to be feeding off all of them for the rest of my life.” Brick is survived by his wife, Stacy; his three chil- dren, John-Henry, Celia and Sadie; his mother, Mary; his father, Robert; and his brother, Jeffrey. terests can prepare lessons [for elementary and junior high-aged kids].” Computer science junior Nathan Seegmiller said he struggled to pursue the sub- ject in high school because of a lack of available curriculum. “I took the AP version my junior year, and some of my friends and I wanted to take more [computer science] af- ter that, so the school had to make a whole new curricu- lum for us,” Seegmiller said. “The problem was that it did not have enough interest, so it was placed during an AP sec- tion, and we had to teach our- selves. For most people, that class was their only exposure to [computer science].” Prompted by President Barack Obama’s statement about an initiative to encour- age computer science educa- tion on Jan. 31, UTeach will continue to develop programs that integrate computer sci- ence curriculum into general education, Hughes. said. “We really believe that over time it will become an expectation that kids are exposed to com- puter science and computa- tional thinking,” Hughes said.

Music and social media might help with the mundane walk to class, but plugging in for the stroll won’t add the pep to your step you might expect. Listening to music or using your phone while walking reduces your situational awareness — the ability to sense and react to your surroundings. The consequences range from embarrassing — a teenager fell into a sewer manhole while texting in New York City — to fatal: 4,735 pedestrians died in 2013 because they were distracted by their phones. A study in Gait and Posture found that people miss nearly half of their visual field when engaged with their phone. The jour- nal Accident Analysis and Prevention dem- onstrated that college students are more likely to be hit by traffic when listening to music or using a phone and that the num- ber of phone-related pedestrian injuries has even eclipsed driving-related ones. “Phone zombies” also make great tar- gets for pickpockets and criminals, ac- cording to Campus Safety magazine. When our senses are preoccupied with music and a screen, we have little room to process what’s happening to us and those in our vicinity. But our aversion to walking phone-free impacts more than just crime rates. “Those little devices in our pockets are so psychologically powerful that they don’t only change what we do,” said Sherry Turkle, MIT professor of social studies of science and technology. “They change who we are.” And she’s right — we are becoming a society that plugs in to tune out. Smartphone congregations gather at the bus stop, consumed by the zeros and ones streaming into their ears, together but alone. Students shuffle along the cross- walk in a stupor, heads bent and thumbs tapping. Engaging with a person on a phone or listening to music is awkward, if not taboo. We all know what it feels like to recover from a greeting that falls on pre- occupied ears. Our smartphone habits keep us enter- tained but with the heavy price of our safe- ty and social skills. So the next time you notice one of those indiscreet aural rebels blaring obnoxious music from a backpack speaker, don’t give him your usual stink eye — at least he’s cut the cord. Schmidt is a physics and aerospace engi- neering sophomore from Austin. It is safe to say no one has ever gotten a sexually transmitted disease from drink- ing alcohol. However, a recent infographic from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention suggested women should not drink lest they accidentally contract a pregnancy or an STD. It even goes so far as to encourage women not to drink because it can cause injuries and/or violence. While its intentions of reducing fetal alcohol syndrome were sound, this info- graphic encourages subtle victim blam- ing by insinuating that women who drink alcohol are to blame for much more than having a few extra drinks. The CDC intended to reduce fetal al- cohol syndrome by publishing this info- graphic, which is a noble cause. Similarly, the idea that women could choose to use birth control to protect themselves from unwanted pregnancy is sound. However, this infographic combines these ideas improperly and draws the wrong conclusion by implying that preg- nancy, STDs and assault are a woman’s fault if she drinks. This ignores the root cause of the problem. As a health organization, the CDC is obli- gated to employ the best and most beneficial tactics to combat the health problems our nation faces. Studies have shown that victim blaming produces depressive effects, anxi- ety and consequences for mental health. By employing this tactic, the CDC is negatively impacting women rather than helping them. The infographic implies that if a woman drinks more than her allowed amount, she can expect consequences, and said consequences will all be her fault because she put herself at risk. According to this infographic, the amount not to be exceeded is eight drinks a week, or more than four drinks in two to three hours. Women should not have restrictions placed on them that men do not, includ- ing drinking. Aliyah Conley, Plan II, Eng- lish and anthropology sophomore and vice president of Programming for Women’s Resource Agency explained that this info- graphic is insulting beyond the fact that the CDC should remain objective in general. “The connection between STDs and alcohol consumption is odd and doesn’t provide women — or anyone for that mat- ter — with helpful information regarding safe practices,” Conley said. “While alco- hol is a health risk, it is a risk for everyone, not just for women. Placing these expec- tations and burdens on women to moni- tor their alcohol consumption to prevent injuries, violence and STDs is misguided and reinforces a culture that devalues and belittles women.” Especially on a college campus, where sexual assault is a known problem, en- couraging victim blaming is especially problematic. On college campuses, drink- ing and partying occur on a regular basis, and women should be able to do so with- out fear, just as men do. Everyone should be responsible in con- suming alcohol, and women who are preg- nant probably should not drink. However, we must be careful to avoid perpetuating a culture that blames women for something that happens to them. Saying that a woman got pregnant because she was drunk is no better than saying a woman got pregnant because her clothes were too tight. It takes more than a beer to get an STD. Kashar is an English freshman from Scarsdale, New York. Readers of my column will be familiar with my disdain for former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush. I’ve questioned his intelligence, I’ve denied the existence of his political acumen and I’ve even intimated that his family name is his biggest asset in the race, all in the pages of the Texan. However, for a brief moment this past week, I also felt pity for him. At a recent campaign event in New Hamp- shire, Bush delivered a speech that prompted a tepid reaction. Actually, tepid is an under- statement; his comments were followed by total silence. Bush frowned, titled his head and — in the most pathetic voice I have heard in some time — uttered two words that likely sunk whatever chances his presi- dential campaign still had left: “Please clap.” It’s funny, especially given how cocky Bush had been in the early stages of the campaign. (He triumphed in early endorsements and fundraising, which compose the so-called “silent primary”). It’s also a little tragic, espe- cially after seeing Bush’s full potential during Saturday’s Republican debate. Bush repeatedly hounded the front-runner, Donald Trump, most notably for his contro- versial use of eminent domain for one of his business’s casinos in New Jersey. Bush con- tended that Trump abused the process to evict an elderly woman from her home, allegedly to build a parking lot. It was a shining moment for Bush, who had a few other fleeting moments of clarity while engaging Trump. My personal favorite was when Bush lambasted Trump for being a bully, namely after Trump ridiculed a re- porter with physical disabilities. This last debate for the New Hampshire primary, likely the Bush campaign’s last as well, proved his potential as a candidate for president. Indeed, all the lackluster cam- paigns — perhaps because they have finally realized that they must no longer placate the Tea Party — have begun redeeming them- selves in many ways. New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, who is cruising for a sixth-place finish in his sup- posedly-strong state of New Hampshire, also came out swinging at the debate. Time and time again he hounded Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, now seen as the establishment’s likely choice. Christie brought attention to Rubio’s inexperience and overdependence on trite talking points, goading him into repeating nearly the exact same phrase four times in a row. Even Ohio Gov. John Kasich, largely seen as the most centrist of the bunch, has been embracing his bipartisan identity of late. In New Hampshire, he has become unapolo- getic about his non-Republican support, attempting to spin it into an asset and a comparison to former President — and Re- publican patriarch — Ronald Reagan. As a society, we laugh at someone like Jeb Bush, who makes guarded comments and measured promises. But we should really fo- cus on Trump and Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, who lies without limit and tests the limits of hy- perbole at big rallies with tons of applause. This is the finest hour for those few estab- lishment Republicans still kicking on a na- tional stage: Bush, Christie and Kasich. Re- publicans and independents would be wise to not ignore them, no matter how pathetic.

ESPN announced this past Saturday that its col- lege basketball preview show will broadcast live from Norman to preview the rematch of the triple overtime game the teams played on Jan. 4 in Law- rence where Kansas pulled out a 109-106 win. It’s the second time in three weeks that a Big 12 team has hosted Col- lege GameDay. The show took place in Lawrence on Jan. 30 before Kansas faced Kentucky. Weekly AwardsWest Virginia senior guard Jaysean Paige picked up the Big 12 Player of the Week honor after leading the Mountaineers to two wins over top 15 teams last week. Paige averaged 20 points in wins over Iowa State and Baylor. He drilled a 3-pointer with under two minutes to play to give the Mountaineers the lead for good over the Cyclones and also hit 51.7 percent of his shots against the Bears. Kansas State fresh- man forward Dean Wade took the other conference honor, winning the Big 12 Newcomer of the Week award. Wade totaled 17 points in the upset win over then-No. 1 Okla- homa and made 3-of-6 shots from behind the arc. He also added seven re- bounds and three assists. Sooners fall from No. 1 AP spotThe Sooners fell from the top spot in the Asso- ciated Press rankings on Monday for the first time since taking that spot. Oklahoma slipped to third after losing 80-69 at Kan- sas State on Saturday. Villanova took over the No. 1 position for the first time in school history. Kansas moved up one spot to sixth, and West Vir- ginia moved up four spots to No. 10. Baylor and Iowa State each dropped spots — the Bears falling to No. 21 and the Cyclones drifting back to No. 14. Texas made its debut in the poll, checking in at No. 24 for the first time this season. By Jacob Martella@ViewFromTheBoxWOMEN’S GOLFWomen’s golf struggled in the second round of the UCF Challenge, finishing the round sixth overall with a score of 20-over par for the tournament. Julia Beck’s score of 71 led the Longhorn charge for the day and propelled the junior into a tie for the 18th-best score in the tournament. Junior Hayley Mills and sophomore Sophia Schubert both turned in 75-stroke performances. Mills’s showing was good enough to maintain the best two-day score on the team with a mark of 147. The junior holds the 13th- best score in the tourna- ment and currently sits six strokes behind tournament leaders Missouri senior Michelle Butler and East Carolina senior Frida Gus- tafsson Spang with one day to go. Additional showings of 76 and 78 from senior Tezira Abe and freshman Maddie Luitwieler round- ed out the Texas showing. The Longhorns ended the day 9-over, dropping four spots to the sixth-best team score, while first- place Missouri ended the day with a 12-stroke advan- tage over the Texas going into the final round.

No. 24 Texas had No. 3 Oklahoma on the ropes all night in Norman and had OU’s star senior guard Buddy Hield under lock and key for the first half. But Hield, a Naismith Award contender, needed only a few moments of mag- ic to suck the life out of the Longhorns. With the game tied at 60-60, Hield got the ball behind the 3-point line, stepped back and sunk the shot he’s made so many times this season with two seconds left. Texas never even got off a shot on its ensuing posi- tion, losing to Oklahoma, 63-60, on Monday night. The Longhorns held a 57-51 lead with 3:30 left, but Hield began his tear with a 3-pointer. Immedi- ately after, he drove to the lane for an easy bucket. Hield then got to the line four times in the final two minutes and ended up scoring the final 12 points for Oklahoma. But for the first half, Texas played Hield as well as they possibly could have. The Longhorns held Hield to six first-half points. Junior guard Kendal Yancy, meanwhile, helped Texas get off to a hot start on the offensive end of the court. Yancy came into Monday not having made a 3-point- er since mid-January while undertaking the task of try- ing to contain Hield. But the junior had eight points in the opening min- utes to help Texas begin the game on a 13-3 run. The Longhorns quickly stagnated and went nearly six minutes while scoring just one field goal midway through the first half. Yancy sparked the Longhorns again and scored five quick points to help outscore Oklahoma 14-7 to end the first half, giving Texas a 31-22 lead at the break. He ended the first half with a career-high 13 points, six rebounds and a career-high three steals. But as the second half started, Hield and his backcourt mate senior Isa- iah Cousins began to heat up, combining for 44 of Oklahoma’s 63 points. Head coach Shaka Smart spoke highly of Oklahoma’s two guards on Saturday but said that Texas is lucky to have two reliable guards of its own in junior guard Isa- iah Taylor and senior guard Javan Felix. Both tried to bring Texas back. Taylor was held to five points in the first half but ended the game with 19 and scored in the final seven minutes. Felix, mean- while, had seven of his nine points in the second half, but he and Taylor were sim- ply unable to outduel Hield in the end. The loss snaps Texas’ four- game winning streak and moves Texas to 4-3 against ranked opponents. Another ranked team awaits Texas on Saturday, when the Long- horns travel to Ames, Iowa, to play No. 14 Iowa State. By Akshay Mirchandani@amirchandani41Joshua Guerra | Daily Texan StaffJunior guard Isaiah Taylor’s team-leading 19 points were not enought to propel Texas to a road win over No. 3 Oklahoma. MEN’S GOLFA young Beau Hossler found himself in the midst of history at the 2012 U.S. Open Golf Championship in San Francisco. Fresh off his junior year at Santa Margarita Catho- lic High School in Orange County, California, the 17-year-old Hossler burst onto the scene on the tough- est stage in golf; he once held sole possession of first in the second round and ended the third round four shots off the lead. “I still want to be low am- ateur, but I also want to win the tournament,” Hossler told The New York Times after the round. Hossler finished tied for 29th after shooting a 6-over par 76 in the final round, falling two strokes short of finishing as the low amateur to a Texas freshman named Jordan Spieth. But the message was sent — Hossler had put the golf world on notice. More than three years later, Hossler continues to build on his success in his still very young career. The junior is coming off a year where he played in the U.S. Open and The Walker Cup, won two collegiate tournaments, was an All-American and won Big 12 player of the year for the 2014–15 season. Still, Hossler was dissatisfied with his finish to the season. “I didn’t come close to achieving most of my goals, unfortunately,” Hossler said. “I played OK at the NCAAs, but I definitely underper- formed at the Western and U.S. Amateurs, and that was pretty disappointing.” But the 2015–16 sea- son started off much bet- ter for Hossler. He’s won three of his last five starts, including the Nike Golf Collegiate Invitational and Arizona Intercollegiate. Hossler said the win in the former helped relieve some of the pressure he puts on himself. “I hate losing,” Hossler said. “The feeling of winning, to me, it makes all of those crappy moments, hard work, time when you’re getting up early when you don’t want to — it makes it all worth it.” His swing coach, Adam Porzak — who began work- ing with Hossler in late 2012 after his long-time, legend- ary swing coach, Jim Flick, passed away — said the way Hossler takes ownership of his game has helped the ju- nior reach this point. “It’s not necessarily the lon- gest practice or the most golf balls hit — it’s just the qual- ity of the ones that are hit,” Porzak said. “I can truly say that every time he holds a golf club, he generally has a pur- pose to what he’s doing.” Texas head coach John Fields said he knew Hossler could find this type of success. “His experience and his talent [indicate] that he’ll go a long way in golf,” Fields said. “My vision is that he goes on and has an incred- ible career on the PGA Tour.” Hossler will complete three-and-a-half years at Tex- as at the end of the semester. Hossler knows his time on the 40 Acres is running out. With the PGA Tour in his sight, there is much to look forward to in the future. But there is still unfin- ished business to complete during the time he has left as a Longhorn. “The number one goal is to win the national cham- pionship as a team and to win the national champi- onship as an individual,” Hossler said. “I feel like my tenure at Texas would be incomplete unless we have a national championship.” Courtesy of Tim CowieSenior Beau Hossler has tasted amateur success in the U.S. Open and won three of his last five tournaments but will not rest until he can add a National Championship to his resume. Hossler seeking to end his collegiate career with titleBy Trenton Daeschner@TrentDaeschnerLONGHORNS IN THE NBACeltics top Cavaliers on Bradley buzzer beaterBoston Celtics shoot- ing guard Avery Bradley had only one option when he was suddenly handed the basketball with two seconds remaining. Despite the clock quickly approaching zero, Bradley managed to set himself on the corner of the hardwood. The ball escaped his fingertips with less than a second to go. A second later, Brad- ley’s teammates rushed to midcourt to embrace him. Boston was trail- ing by two to the reign- ing Eastern Conference champion Cavaliers, but Bradley’s buzzer-beater allowed the streaking Celtics to win their eighth game in nine contests. Boston was down four with 8.5 seconds remain- ing in the game but man- aged to catch up after an Evan Turner layup and a Cavaliers turnover. On the last play, Jae Crowder inbounded the ball to Celtics All-Star Isaiah Thomas. Not able to find an open look at the bas- ket, Thomas dumped the ball to Bradley in the corner. Bradley shifted toward the baseline and shot over the defend- ing Iman Shumpert. He converted on his fourth 3-pointer of the game and possibly the most important shot of the Celtics season. “If you play this game, you should believe you’re going to win un- til the horn goes off,” Bradley said. The Celtics, one of the NBA’s youngest teams with an average age of 24.5, have emerged as dark-horse contenders in the East. Bradley has been a key part of the Celtics’ 2016 emergence, averaging 15 points and 1.5 steals per game. The former Longhorn fol- lowed up his game- winning shot with a 25- point performance to beat the Sacramento Kings on Sunday. Former Texas Long- horns hitting game-win- ning 3-pointers has been a theme this season. Two nights before Bradley’s finish, Kevin Durant hit a long 3-pointer to lift the Oklahoma City Thunder over the Orlando Magic 117-114, and in late No- vember, Toronto Rap- tors point guard Cory Joseph shot a three from the corner to defeat the Washington Wizards. Out of the eight former Longhorns in the NBA, three have already con- verted on late shots this season from beyond the arc to win. With three months remaining, Brad- ley and those who once donned burnt orange and white have plenty of more chances to revel in the glory of scoring the game-winning basket.

Eckels said he enjoys the tight-knit community of vendors by the murals and has no plans to retire any- time soon. With complex obstacles, mud and colored powder, several upcoming running events offer twists to en- hance runners’ adrenaline and challenge their men- tal toughness. Although it may be too late to prepare for the Austin Marathon on Feb. 14, there is still time to train for these four unconventional races hap- pening near Austin. Warrior DashWhen: March 5 Where: 394 Pleasant Chapel Road, Cedar Creek, TXThe Warrior Dash is for anyone inspired by the hit show “Ninja Warrior.” The 5K race is plotted with 12 obstacles, ranging from a towering, climb- able wall to a 100-foot stretch of mud lined with barbed wire. Finishers are rewarded with a bottle- opener shaped medal and a cold beer. Warrior Dash partnered with Saint Jude’s Research Hospital, giving participants the option to run and fundraise for a cause simultaneously. 5K RunDead Zombie RunWhen: March 12Where: 1042 Event Center Drive, Dripping Springs, TXThe people behind the RunDead Zombie race have a hunch — when runners realize a zombie hoard is chasing them, they’ll prob- ably run for their lives. RunDead Zombie partici- pants can choose to be a runner or a “zombie.” Run- ners attempt to reach the finish line without having their flag ripped from their waist, while zombies try to grab as many flags as pos- sible. Prizes are rewarded to top finishers on both sides. More like a game than a traditional race, RunDead Zombie ensures each run- ner is not only exercising, but also having a good time. All of the event’s proceeds benefit scientific research on cancer and Alzheimer’s. The Color RunWhen: May 7Where: 7311 Decker Lane, Austin, TX Who wouldn’t want to run through a wall of powdered color? Color Run participants start with a pristine white shirt and finish every kilome- ter with a fresh coat of purple, yellow or blue powdered cornstarch. The color spectacle acts as a distraction from the race, designed to make runners feel like they are partak- ing in a festival. After the race, runners gather near the finish line to enjoy booming music and cold beverages. Tough Mudder When: May 21–22Where: 290 Old Lake Road, Smithville, TXLeave your clean, new sneakers at home for this race. The Tough Mudder is a 10–12-mile mud-cov- ered course with 19 obsta- cles designed for the most serious adrenaline junk- ies. The obstacles are of- ten demanding, with chal- lenges such as the “Birth Canal,” a claustrophobic portion of the course in which runners are forced to crawl through mud with 100 pounds of slosh- ing water weighing on their back. Etched into theater studies junior Kennedy Paris’s skin, directly beneath her heart, is a small tattoo of a heartbeat. “One year ago today, I had a friend who was in a car crash,” Paris said. “He was flung out of the car and didn’t make it.” Last spring break, Paris said she wasn’t in a good place and felt the need to do something, so she got her fourth tattoo to commemorate him. “I got heartbeat and stitches to bring new life I guess,” Paris said. After falling asleep at the wheel, slamming his car into a bridge and having his body peeled out in critical condi- tion, local artist Randy Eck- els was lucky to be alive. Released from the hospi- tal and wheelchair-bound, Eckels was taken in by three hometown friends, colloquially known as the “Oklahoma Mafia.” The group did not charge Eckels rent, instead paying him to cut, shape and craft jewelry. In 1976, the friends set up stands at the 23rd Street Artists’ Market, and Eckels has been selling necklaces, earrings and belt buckles there since. Eckels said the custom- ers and market vendors have developed a tight-knit community. A few days ago, a woman approached him wearing a ring she had purchased from him 25 years ago and hadn’t taken off since. Another couple returned to tell him they used his jewelry as wed- ding rings. “We love each other.” Eck- els said. “We’re all talented and all a little bit eccentric — which is polite for crazy.” Before he moved to Aus- tin, Eckels was an under- graduate at Oklahoma State University, where he was involved in illegal anti-war movements, dealing false identification cards to men avoiding the Vietnam draft. After narrowly escaping an encounter with the FBI, Eckels got a job in construc- tion and in 1975 moved to Austin, where he’s seen the market grow and decay for 40 years. “It has almost died,” Eckels said. “We have a big problem with people doing drugs in the back. My heart goes out to the homeless people, but it scares our new artists, and they don’t come back.” Now 64, Eckels said he doesn’t plan on retiring anytime soon and wants to revitalize the market to what it once was. “That rocking chair will kill you,” Eckels said. “As long as I’ve got my fin- gers, I’ll be working until I drop.” 8 L&ACAT CARDENAS, LIFE&ARTS EDITOR | @thedailytexan8Tuesday, February 9, 2016By Elizabeth Hlavinka@ hlavinka_eArtist reflects on 40 years on Drag MarketARTLast December, father- son duo Ezequiel and Gubiel Aviles brought Tex-Mex to the Drag. For students looking to satisfy their enchilada cravings between classes, Isalia’s offers authentic Tex-Mex to customers from their shop at 26th Street and Guadalupe Street. “Growing up, my par- ents were well-known by my friends and cousins for their great cooking,” Gubiel said. “Everyone al- ways wanted to come over and eat their food, so I’ve always been interested in opening a restaurant to of- fer everyone my parents’ great food.” Isalia’s is easy to miss, located in a tiny building behind Fat Sal’s. Despite being hidden from plain sight, Isalia’s has a great atmosphere, offering cus- tomers two dining area options. The first is the main indoor dining room, charmingly decorated with various pieces of Mexican artwork, giving off the fa- miliar, comforting vibe of a local taquería. For cus- tomers longing for a side of fresh air with their meal, Isalia’s also offers a sizable outdoor patio in the front. The menu, compli- mented by Isalia’s cozy ambiance, includes all the staples of a good Tex- Mex restaurant plus some pleasant surprises. Eze- quiel makes everything on Isalia’s menu from scratch daily, down to their fluffy flour tortillas. Ezekiel said he has worked as a cook at various restaurants for much of his adult life, so he brings a wealth of experi- ence to Isalia’s kitchen. “My dad pretty much does all the cooking on his own, and he certainly likes it that way,” Gubiel said. “He can actually be quite controlling in the kitchen.” While a major part of their menu is tacos, the chicken and beef fajita ta- cos, served with sautéed peppers and onions, don’t distinguish themselves from any other run-of-the- mill fajita tacos. The true highlights of Isalia’s taco selection are the al pastor and barbacoa tacos. The al pastor — or red-seasoned pork — is delectably greasy in all the right ways. The mixture of the seasoned grease and fat with the soft flour tortilla keeps the taco moist and flavorful without the need for additional salsa or top- pings. The barbacoa, on the other hand, lacks the dish’s trademark grease but makes up for it with a smoky flavor from the barbecue pit, where it is smoked for approximately six hours every day. Served traditionally with cilantro and onion, this is easily the best taco on Isalia’s menu. In addition to tacos, Isa- lia’s takes pride in putting a spin on Tex-Mex enchi- ladas. With half a dozen to choose from, the two most notable are the enchiladas famosas and the cheese enchiladas. The enchila- das famosas are the most unique on the menu, filled with chicken fajita and topped with a poignant red chipotle sauce that gives them a flavor distinct from anything else on the menu. The cheese enchiladas were a pleasant surprise, straying from the predict- able form of cheese-filled enchiladas topped with meat gravy. Instead, these cheese-filled enchiladas are smothered in Isalia’s house chile con queso, mak- ing a classic dish different enough to still be exciting. Two dishes that com- pletely break away from the rest of the menu are the stuffed avocado and Isa- lia’s Especial. The stuffed avocado is deep-fried and loaded to the brim with shredded chicken and cheese before being cov- ered in more cheese and rich green suiza sauce. This plate takes the ambition just far enough without overwhelming the palate, although it will certainly leave customers struggling to walk home as a result of its heaviness. Isalia’s Espe- cial, a personal favorite of server Rosemary Ochoa, stuffs a fried poblano pep- per with chicken fajita meat and is covered with Monterey Jack cheese and tart tomatillo sauce. It has plenty of flavor but still leaves room to be enhanced by one of Isalia’s two house salsas for more of a kick. Isalia’s also offers im- pressive breakfast items. All of the classic breakfast tacos, including chorizo and egg, bacon and egg and migas, are enhanced with a generous serving of melted cheese. For less conven- tional Tex-Mex breakfast options, Isalia’s serves a hearty migas enchilada and some startlingly mouth- watering pancakes that could go head-to-head with Kerbey Lane’s any day of the week. “We’re just really happy to be serving food here in Austin,” said Gubiel. “I have always loved this city and wanted to give back, and what better way to serve Austin than with food?” Isalia’s offers quality Tex-MexBy Stephen Acevedo@stephenace24Daulton Venglar | Daily Texan StaffRacers begin the 6th annual Austin Gorilla Run at Camp Mabry on Jan. 30, 2016.
