State law to affect teacher evaluations by Marie Prevost Reporter Starting this semester, students should expect to see an increase of administrator presence in the classrooms. Because of a state law change on how the staff is being evaluated, a new evaluation system is being implemented next year. However, Southport is starting a semester early, according to principal Ms. Barbara Brouwer, to prepare students and staff for what’s to come. “We want students to get used to an administrator coming in for a few minutes and then leaving, and we want teachers to get used to the same thing,” Brouwer said. This won’t just be a change for teachers and students though. Different administrators could end up evaluating the same class. The goal of practicing the new evalua- tion system this semester is to get all of the administra- tors on the same page, per say. The administrators want this practice to result in the ability to have two different administrators see the same thing in a classroom, and evaluate it the same way. “We need to calibrate ... No matter what administrator comes in it ought to be them seeing the same thing and not rating it differently,” Brouwer said. Administrators are doing this, not only to unify the way each administrator rates a teacher, but to manage their schedules as well. Next year when this new evalu- ation system takes place, administrators are expected to fulfill their everyday tasks. Administrators have many different things to do, such as hold parent conferences, finish reports or talk one on one with students. Starting next year, they’re expected to add on a more rigorous evaluation schedule onto that. “Our main concern is that the (aforementioned) stuff isn’t going to go away, but then these other expectations are going to be added. So it’ll just be making sure that it has to be a priority but there are other things that have to still get done,” assistant principal Mrs. Amy Boone said. Next year is going to bring changes for students, teach- ers and administrators. However, Southport’s principals and administrators are hoping that practice really does make perfect this semester. “It will create some challenges. ... We just get creative and find ways to make it work. It’s always a fear that something gets missed, but I’m confident in the leadership in this corporation,” Boone said.

Driving home in a time machine every day after school is a regular activity for senior Dan Arndt. His car is nicknamed the TARDIS, which stands for Time and Relative Dimen-sion in Space. It was named after a time traveling police phone booth from the show “Doctor Who,” which is what the main char-acter uses to travel. Arndt and his friends are obsessed with the show “Doctor Who.” They have even gone as far as calling themselves the “Who Crew.”

The Who Crew meets up every Saturday to hang out and watch either a new episode or reruns of “Doctor Who.” The show plays on the BBC America channel and has been on television since the 1960’s. Arndt had discovered the show about three years ago when a friend had showed it to him. Arndt was hooked and fell in love with the show.

“I’ve always liked science fiction shows ... but it’s got a lot to it than just aliens and la-sers and stuff. It’s got really good stories and a lot of heart to it,” Arndt said. “It’s got more feelings and it’s almost more human than a lot of sci-fi you see, and that’s how we like it.”

Arndt got some of his friends hooked too, including senior Ashley Wilson. Wilson explained that it was at first an annoyance because Arndt and senior Anthony Groves would talk about “Doctor Who” all the time around her. She hadn’t seen the show before, but had already decided she didn’t like it because she found Arndt and Groves constant discussions about it annoying. But Wilson

chose to watch an episode just to make sure she didn’t like it. That one episode turned into entire seasons, and she was also hooked.

Not only does the Who Crew watch “Doc-tor Who” episodes during their get-togethers, but they also play a little game. They buy some Big K soda from Kroger and mix the sodas together and name their concoction after something from “Doctor Who.” They call Arndt’s car the TARDIS because the TARDIS in the show is a phone booth on the outside, but looks similar to a big spaceship on the inside. According to Who Crew member junior Nick Green, Arndt’s car can legally seat eight people but is small.

The show is mainly about the adventures of a Time Lord who goes to visit planets but ends up having to save them. Every season, the main actor changes because the Time Lord regenerates and gets a new body. So far, 11 actors have played Doctor Who. “Doctor Who” isn’t a very popular show in America. It’s a British show, so Arndt felt like it was almost an underground thing because a lot of people in America haven’t heard of it.

“There aren’t that many who are as inter-ested about it,” Arndt said. “ It’s kind of a cult

thing.”Arndt and part of the Who Crew attended

Gencon in hopes of finding some “Doctor Who” merchandise. At Gencon, “Doctor Who” fans were dressed as characters from the

show including the 11 doc-tors. Arndt was pleased to find many fans like him who loved the show and liked talking about it. Arndt was even able to buy a few items from the show including a toy screwdriver that the doc-tor carries around.

Arndt feels that “Doctor Who” is a show that has be-gun to catch on in the United States and not just in Britain. He explained that the Who Crew is almost like a club because nobody else really knows about “Doctor Who” which is one of the reasons why it’s so great.

The Who Crew was start-ed because it was originally a Dungeons and Dragons group but then they all real-ized that they were all in love with Doctor Who. So they began watching episodes

of Doctor Who together at either Arndt’s or Green’s house.

“It went from being all about Doctor Who to kind of just a group of friends who all like the same thing doing stuff together,” Wilson said.

Tuning in to a You-Tube channel, students can watch as sopho-more Donny Spoor per-forms magic tricks that confuse his watchers.

“It’s just an illusion. ... I’d rather call myself an illusionist (rather than a magician),” Spoor said.

Starting two months ago, Spoor started to expand on magic and when time permits,

Spoor likes to spend about an hour dedicated to learning a new magic trick. Spoor has al-ways had an interest in magic and has always been intrigued by how things happened.

Spoor typically enjoys showing his friends during lunch some of the new tricks that he has taught himself. Spoor’s friends entirely support him and often will bring other

people around to see Spoor in action. As a child he thought that magic tricks

were strange. Being an illusionist though, he has come to understand the basics behind magic. His favorite tricks are when he is able to incorporate his audience, normally when he has students shuffle the cards themselves. He enjoys these mostly because it creates a bigger reaction from the person because they are directly involved in the trick.

“I’ve always been interested in magic and how it happens. ... I like to see the expres-sions on people’s faces when I am done,” Spoor said.

Even though Spoor is now able to know the secrets behind the magic tricks of other magicians, he still believes that some tricks are real. Illusionist Criss Angel, from the tv show “Criss Angel MindFreak,” is Spoor’s favorite performer. Spoor is impressed with his acts that include levitation and things like walking on water. Events like these are the ones that Spoor believes are not illu-sions, but are real.

Starting in her sev-enth grade gym class, freshman Winona Cleary has had an eye out for a particular body part.

“Everyone’s legs stopped looking like pen-cils and started having muscles,” Cleary said.

Her obsession with calf muscles has been an ongoing thing that

has provided the basis of her mother thinking

she’s “crazy” and her father thinking that she is simply going through a “phase.” Even Cleary’s friends give her a hard time about her distinc-tive appreciation for the muscles of others.

On a normal basis Cleary will search for images of nicely shaped calves on Google. She has even dedicated an album on her

Facebook that contains pictures that she is fond of. Cleary says that her fondness is due to the fact that calves tend to look nice. Dan-iel Tosh would be the person with the best calves in her opinion, but Cleary is also par-ticularly interested in the calves of skaters.

Currently enrolled in a gym class, Cleary spends a lot of time staring at the calves of her fellow classmates.

“There was this guy that had the perfect shape of calves,” Cleary said. “I asked him if I could touch them. He said no.”

She takes her staring outside of the con-fines of the gym though. Typically staring at the legs of others in the hallways, Cleary seldom gets caught glancing. She’s gained a sort of “slickness” when it comes to her admiration.

Her obsession is switching over though. With a growing awareness for forearms and hip bones, Cleary is starting to focus on other body parts more. For Cleary, forearms tend to remind her of calf muscles. As for her own calf muscles, she thinks they’re “pretty nice.”

Any and every kind of candy wrapper has a place in junior Kylie Jones’s collec-tion. While some may see these wrappers as trash, Jones sees them as her trea-sures.

Jones has been col-lecting candy wrappers for around a year and

half. Within that time, Jones has been able to

fill at least a Tupperware box and a jar full of them.

She mainly keeps these wrappers for scrapbooking purposes, but she also started keeping them to compare the marketing trends that different candy companies use. She likes to see how different companies’

wrappers change color and design as time progresses.

However, she does not save only her own wrappers. Her friends help her add to her collection by giving her their old candy wrappers as well. They feel indifferent about her collection, so they have no prob-lem contributing to her collection.

“They know if they have a piece of gum and it has a cool wrapper, I take it and put it in my jar,” Jones said.

Recently, Jones started getting frustrated with her mother’s complaints about how much room her collection takes up, so she has started to throw some of her wrappers away.

“I just picked the ones that I had the most of or that were most new, sort of be-cause I knew they would be out for a while,” Jones said.

So even though she throws away her new wrappers, Jones’s collection will be kept alive because she will still have her old wrappers to occupy her jar.

“Gnoming” is the act of littering some-one’s yard with land gnomes.

Sophomore Emily Hart has yet to do this, but is hoping to fulfill this act in the near future.

With an admi-ration for garden gnomes, Hart’s

unusual interest started at a Christmas

party. Having to buy a random gift for a random person, Hart found a Travelocity gnome at a local Meijer. This is where Hart’s atypical attention to gnomes came from.

The biggest thing for Hart about gnomes is the fact that her and her friends share the interest. Through a

friend at the Christmas gift exchange, Hart ended up becoming friends with a girl she ran track with. The two shared a bond created by the liking for gnomes.

“It’s a weird thing that I share with my friends. I think it’s fun we can be unique and different. It’s a fun common interest,” Hart said.

Hart has a bracelet that she wears that contains images of gnomes. She has a friend that has a bracelet that is similar to the one that Hart wears on her wrist. Her and her friends also have gnome ear-rings. Sometimes Hart’s friends will buy her gnomes as gifts. During Halloween, Hart and a friend actually went to the extent of dressing up as gnomes.

Not only does Hart hope to do some “gnoming,” her and a few friends decided to take a gnome from sophomore Rachael Samm’s yard. As an ongoing event, her and her friends have done this several times considering the fact that Samm al-legedly has quite a few in her yard.

Q. What is an obsession?Obsessions are thoughts, im-ages or impulses that come into one’s mind involuntarily and repetitively. They are often absurd or upsetting and are most often associated with an increase in anxiety, distress, or discomfort. Common obses-sions include: fear of harming self or others; fear of getting/giving/or having a disease; fear of feeling dirty or “not right”; fear of forgetting to do something or not doing it well enough; fear of having taboo desires ... ; fear of going crazy; or fear of losing something impor-tant.

Q. When do most obsessions start?They can start in childhood and seem to be more prevalent in boys than in girls. Having fam-ily members with this disorder seems to be related to early-on-set. Otherwise, they can often start during puberty and on up into adult years.

Q. Are obsessions always bad?To the person, they feel like it. They aren’t “bad” in and of themselves, but the anxiety/fear/terror associated with them is what is driving them (and) what needs treatment.

Life has never been easy for the women of this world. Susan B. Anthony and Amelia Earhart are just two examples of women who showed that even they had the same rights as anyone else and they could achieve dreams.

One woman in particular, however, showed the world what the power of a woman could do. Margaret Thatcher, the first female Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, went from being an ordinary daughter of a grocer to a highly respected political figure. In “The Iron Lady,” the world gets to see the life and career of Margaret Thatcher in this wonderfully made biopic, featuring Meryl Streep.

The movie takes place over the course of three days in Thatcher’s elderly life. During this time, she has flashbacks of her earlier life as she is attempting to clear away the belongings of her deceased husband. Her flashbacks begin with her as a young woman, inspired by political speeches she attends. Later, the audience sees how she struggles her way through the male-dominated political world in Parliament. However, Thatcher beats the odds and rises to become the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom.

During Thatcher’s flashbacks, her unstable health becomes apparent to the viewer. She shows signs of dementia as she begins to have hallucinations of her dead

husband. Thatcher seems to have trouble maintaining a stable memory and distinguishing her memories from her hallucinations.

I think the movie did a very good job at depicting the life of such a powerful woman. Although Thatcher made it to the top, there were consequences to go along with her success. During her time as Prime Minister, she was highly criticized for decisions she had to make during the Cold War and Britain’s dropping economy. Many thought her choices were wrong or unfair, even though she had high hopes for restoring Britain’s economy and bringing an end to the Cold War.

I also thought this movie did a really nice job because it didn’t glorify any of the things Thatcher had to go though in her life. As a young woman, one of the underlying reasons for her marriage was to bring her up in society and make it somewhat easier for her to push her way into the political world. Thatcher is also seen struggling with events in her life, such as the Brighton Hotel bombing in 1984.

“The Iron Lady” also showed a bit of an edgy side to Thatcher. The movie depicts her as being somewhat harsh yet determined in her later years as Prime Minister. This later on however doesn’t end well for Thatcher when her own party ceases to support her and forces resignation.

I thought that the movie had a sad and almost depressing feeling, mainly because of Thatcher’s deteriorating health and the events she looks back

on. Although the movie had times of happiness and accomplishment for Thatcher, it was still difficult to watch her going through such a difficult time as she tries to cope with her husband’s death and keep her sanity while doing so.

The movie itself is 100 percent acceptable for any high school student. It’s not necessary to have prior knowledge of Thatcher or any of the events depicted as the movie can be easily followed either way. The time is also very convenient, only being around an hour and forty-five minutes long.

“The Iron Lady” was a great movie in my opinion. I thought it was extremely interesting to learn about how such a powerful woman was able to achieve her goals and overcome her obstacles. The movie had

a great portrayal of Margaret Thatcher by Meryl Streep and a wonderful depiction of her life. Overall, I would recommend this movie to anyone wanting to see the life of a powerful woman with a powerful dream.

“Assassin’s Creed: Revelations” is the fourth installment in the franchise. Returning players know what to expect. “Revelations” offers a series re-cap at the beginning of the game. So if you haven’t played an Assassin’s Creed game, “Revelations” is a great entry point.

As soon as it begins, players will be stunned by a breath-taking environment with impressive weather effects. Early on I was thrown into an intense chase between the main character, Ezio Auditore, and his first target. Players take control of three assassins, Desmond, Ezio and Altair. A majority of the game players control Ezio, a 16th century master assassin, as he journeys through Constantinople to uncover the wisdom left by his predecessor Altair.

The presentation this time around sets “Revelations” apart from its predecessors. The facial animations are im-pressive, and the characters are more memorable.

The Assassin’s Creed franchise is known for its brutal combat, and “Revelations” does not disappoint. Early on, players are granted a new weapon, called the hook blade, which has a variety of uses, most notably the zip lines. Zip lines are spread across Constantinople and are the quickest way to navigate the roof tops.

The variety of tools and weapons gives players a chance to find their own unique style. Some new additions, like bombs, serve more as a distraction than a game changer. I found bomb crafting to be an interesting concept, but it did not add to my experience.

To close the deal, Ubisoft managed to create an engaging and unique online multiplayer component. The multiplayer pass is only in new copies.

Overall, “Revelations” is a very captivating experience. If you’re a fan of the series or you’re looking to become one, “Assassin’s Creed: Revelations” is a must-buy.

Anybody who knows the quote that the title “The Fault in Our Stars” is referencing, knows their Shakespeare. It’s part of a quote in “Julius Caesar,” and in this title the words imply that there is something that the stars, fate or life are to be blamed for. This idea that some things are beyond our control is a common theme in the book.

“The Fault in Our Stars” is a comedic tragedy about two teenagers named Hazel Lancaster and Augustus Waters. A first meeting full of snarky and philosophical conversation occurs at a cancer support group during the first chapter. It’s obvious from the start, from both Hazel’s narration and their dialogue, that the two of them are drawn to each other. This attraction grows as they begin to know each other better. Of course, the plot isn’t that simple. The spoilers aren’t for me to tell, though.

The writing in “The Fault in Our Stars” played with my emotions like nothing I’ve read before. The dialogue and nar-ration made me laugh and cry within minutes of each other. However, phrasing and word choice sometimes made it too easy to forget that the story was about teenagers. There were also some jokes that were obscure references and humor that was on the line between offbeat and weird. I found most of it enjoyable anyway, but I probably don’t represent the majority of people in this case.

This is a great book because of how realistic it is, despite it’s odd humor.

Through Hazel’s voice, John Green tells a story of sick-ness, love and the meaning of life. He shows everything from typical teenage snarky comments, to deep philosophical insights and to the little moments that come with falling in love. Really, this book is a story of life itself. And like life, the ending is obvious halfway through the story, but that won’t stop tears from falling when it comes.

‘Revelations’ Ubisoft’s

‘Fallen Empires’ Snow Patrol’s John Green’s

As far as bands like Snow Patrol were concerned, gener-ally I wasn’t going to be a listener. While familiar with the single “Chasing Cars,” I honestly had no idea what I was going into with this CD, but it turned out to be something that despite being a different sound from the super somber and almost bland “Chasing Cars,” was a very interesting and modern album.

The album begins with “I’ll Never Let Go,” a song with vocals that are filtered and seem to be slightly too optimistic for the grungy sound and not-so-happy lyrics. What surprised me was the electric guitar riffs and electro-synth future feel. While this was the most unexpected thing from this band, they made it work and came out with an appealing sound.

One of the things I liked the most on the album was the use of more than one voice whether on the first track which was a simple and made the song feel translucent, to the use of choirs on the songs like the title track “Fallen Empires” and “This Isn’t Everything You Are.” With the ex-tra voices and string accompaniment it makes to be some of the best songs on the album.

My complaint with the album would be the way that the lead singer’s voice is different and unique, sometimes didn’t mix with the music. In “The Garden Rules,” the sing-ers voice just seems to stand awkwardly on top of the song until a second female voice and gang vocals come in to save the end of the track allowing it to end serenely.

The other complaint I have with this album is that the techno-esque beats that underscore a majority of the tracks are too similar to one another. While it helps it blend, it doesn’t allow me to listen to each song as an individual.

All in all, “Fallen Empires” is a solid, interesting and somewhat unexpected sound from a band that I hadn’t expected much variety from.

Imagine a disease that causes a person to get lost in her own home, not remember how to sit up and even forget the faces of her children. This is what happened to the mother of Southport secretaries Mrs. Jean Waugh and Mrs. Ann Mader.

The disease started out with little things. Ms. Alice Kocher would forget to make dinner or repeat the same stories over and over. Eventually, her memory became so bad that her family decided to have her examined. They took Kocher to an Alzheimer’s treatment center that specialized in declining memory function. The doctors gave Kocher special tests where she would have to remember words or phrases and repeat them later. After some deliberation, it was decided that Kocher had probable Alzheimer’s disease.

“(The diagnosis) really hits you hard,” Waugh said.

When the disease first took hold, Kocher’s family did everything they could to help her. Waugh and Mader constantly watched over their mother, and their father’s full-time job became taking care of Kocher. She was given medicine to help slow the progression of the disease and had drastic changes in mood and demeanor during the night. As a result, their father would have to stay up and tend to her. Lack of sleep and constant stress took a toll on him, and their doctor heavily

advised the family to have Kocher admitted into a facility. She needed special care.

“It was hard to imagine her in a nursing home,” Waugh said. “But we had no choice, for dad’s health.”

After much research and deliberation, the family chose Greenwood Village South as Kocher’s new home. She has been there for six-and-a-half years now, and is visited every day by at least one of her five children. Her husband was also a daily visitor until he passed away two-and-a-half years ago.

“It was hardest for her in the beginning,” Waugh said. “Just the sight of the word (Alzheimer’s) would bring her to tears.”

Both daughters can see the disease’s progression with each visit. Though her daughters visit the facility every day, Kocher introduces each nurse to her family members every time they arrive.

In one instance a few years back, Kocher introduced Herman, her husband, as her father. When gently reminded that he was in fact her husband, she laughed and said, “No, he’s my father. I’m only 23.”

During the first few months Kocher was in Greenwood Village, she kept insisting she had to leave and help her mother. Waugh and Mader were forced to remind Kocher that her mother had passed away many years ago. Kocher became distraught each time, crying because she had not come in time to help her mother.

When Kocher’s husband died, Waugh and Mader chose not to tell her. She didn’t

ask about him, and they didn’t want to upset her further. However, one day, her son came in to visit her along with Waugh and Mader. Kocher kept looking behind her son, and said, “Is that Herman?” There have been more instances where Kocher has seemed to be able to see her departed husband.

The disease has progressed to where Kocher no longer recognizes her daughters.

“I was visiting her,” Waugh said. “And she came up to me and asked ‘Where’s my family?’ And I said, ‘It’s me, I’m right here!’ And she looks behind me and says, ‘Thank you, but I’m going to try and look for them now.’”

True conversations with Kocher are not possible. According to Mader, she may say things that don’t quite make sense, her words jumbled or seemingly random. She may speak of things, like going shopping, that in reality she has not done in years. Her daughters ask her general questions as to not confuse or frustrate her, and if she says something out of the ordinary, they just go along with it. The words are not as important as having time with their mother.

“She just lives in the moment,’ Mader said. “And we just have a good time.”

For example, Kocher and her family used to play card games together during visits. Eventually, Kocher could no longer understand the rules. Instead of risking her confusion by trying to reteach and remind her of how to play, her family decided to invent new rules as they went.

Each Alzheimer’s patient is treated

differently according to their own personal needs. Some patients get confused or angry, and have to be calmed. Kocher suffers from seizures and requires constant care.

According to Waugh, after Kocher has gone through an episode she becomes extremely sleepy.

“Sometimes it scares you to death because you can’t get her to wake up,” Waugh said.

When she wakes, Kocher has a brief period of severe confusion followed by moments of clarity where she regains bits of her memory.

The only way to soothe Kocher when she is upset is by singing “Take Me Out to the Ball Game.” Throughout the disease, Kocher has had a certain fixation on “the ball game.”

One day during a visit, Alice woke up suddenly from a dream. She began describing the ball game, saying “he” was there (Waugh has determined that she probably meant her husband) and that there was a long line of people waiting for her. Waugh thinks that by “ball game” Kocher is describing Heaven.

Now, Kocher can no longer remember how to sit up, bathe or even feed herself. She cannot recall the faces of her daughters, she is unable to understand the time period she is in or the facility that she calls a home. This disease has taken her mind and her memories. However, there is one thing yet the disease is unable to take from her, the unconditional love of her children.

“She may not remember us,” Mader said. “But we remember her.”

When patients are diagnosed with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, they can expect that soon,they may not be able to move a single muscle in their body. All the while, they will be able to properly think and know that eventually their condition will be fatal.

Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), otherwise known as Lou Gehrig’s disease, is a disease that affects the nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord. The brain eventually loses control of the person’s muscles, which ultimately leads to their paralysis and death. There is no known cure or treatment that will halt or reverse the disease. There are some cases where the disease will stop progressing, but in most scenarios the disease is fatal.

Mr. Carl Willis experienced this when he was diagnosed with ALS. The disease kicked in and his mobility decreased up until he eventually became bedridden. All the while the disease had no effect on his mind, so he knew exactly what was happening and that the disease would eventually completely overwhelm him. Two years after his diagnosis, Willis passed away.

His son, Mr. Lynn Willis, saw the

progression of his father’s disease. He remembers the way the disease took over his father’s body and the events that led up to it.

“I remember him before we knew he had ALS. He got tired very easily. I think he knew something was wrong because he was disgusted that he was unable to do things he used to do,” Willis said.

His father worked as a printer all of his life where he worked with a giant typewriter called the linotype machine. The machine got the print ready to be printed for books or whatever the product was. He and his coworkers were constantly surrounded by molten lead, and they would always be breathing it in. Breathing in molten lead can ultimately contribute to lead poisoning, which has very similar symptoms to ALS.

He noticed he had a problem because he had difficulty climbing stairs, wobbly legs and was unable to move as he used to. Because of this he went to his doctor and eventually the Mayo Clinic. The Mayo Clinic is world famous for diagnosing and treating rare and serious diseases. The clinic wanted to make sure he didn’t have lead poisoning,

so they tested him for it. The tests proved, however, that he did in fact have ALS.

“Of course we were all hoping it was lead poisoning, because lead poisoning is curable, and ALS isn’t,” Willis said.

He was diagnosed with Lou Gehrig’s disease in 1973. He was living in San Diego where his symptoms progressed and became

worse. The disease was taking over his body. Due to this, his son traveled from Indianapolis to San Diego to be with his father.

“I could watch the progression of the disease and the symptoms became worse,” Willis said.

The disease started in his legs, and movement became harder. It then progressed

upward through his body. “He went downhill very rapidly,” Willis

said.Willis noticed that at first the disease

made his father unable to go outside. He was able to walk from room to room and from the chair to the couch. As the disease continued to progress he became confined to his bed.

He was able to carry on a conversation with his son, so they talked often. But towards the end it got harder for him to

move the muscles in his mouth.“The disease does nothing to your brain,

only your muscles. He was well aware of what was happening to him,” Willis said.

According to Willis, a great example of how Lou Gehrig’s disease doesn’t affect the mind is the physicist Stephen Hawking. He has beaten the odds and has lived with ALS for many decades. He travels the world giving lectures and writing books, with only being able to communicate through blinking his eyes or twitching a muscle in his cheek. Hawking has been able to do this with only the aid of his assistants.

“His situation illustrates very nicely how ALS leaves the thought process of the brain completely normal while destroying all use of a person’s muscles,” Willis said.

Willis’s father ended up becoming hospitalized and came down with pneumonia. This is a very common scenario with patients diagnosed with ALS because the disease causes difficulty with breathing.

“He got pneumonia, and that’s what killed him,” Willis said.

Two years after he was diagnosed with Lou Gehrig’s disease, Willis’s father died right before Thanksgiving. Now Willis’s daughter, and the granddaughter work with the ALS Association that helps fight Lou Gehrig’s disease.

As the NFL season comes to an end, there are only four teams left in the playoffs. There are two games scheduled to be played on Sunday, Jan. 21. The Patriots are scheduled to host the Baltimore Ravens in New England, and the 49ers are scheduled to host the New York Giants in San Francisco. The winners of these two games will play in the Super Bowl.

Indianapolis will soon be one of 16 cities to ever host a National Football League Super Bowl. The two championship teams will go head-to-head inside Lucas Oil Stadium on Sunday, Feb. 5. This main event is so much more than just a big game. The impact that has been and will be made on the city is mas-sive.

After 32 NFL owners voted in May of 2008, the 2012 Super Bowl Host was de-cided to be Indianapolis. The $700 million Lucas Oil Stadium helped increase the bid. Also increasing the bid was the fact that Indy regularly hosts the Final Four and annually hosts the Indianapolis 500. The presentation received a standing ovation, and the only flaw the NFL saw was the weather.

Organizers hope that the preparation, hard work and money spent are all efforts that will affect Indianapolis and its society extraordi-narily.

“We will definitely have created wonderful moments and won-derful experiences for people,” said pub-lic relations and mar-keting coordinator of the Super Bowl XLVI Host Committee, Ms. McKenze Rogers. “So in a tangible (way), I would say it is price-less.”

According to Rog-ers, there have been grants from the NFL to help improve the city and over 200 homes in Indiana have already been positively affected whether it was reconstructing homes, new shutters or other small infrastructures.

The University of Indianapolis spent $6 million to build a recreational dome that will be used as a practice field by the NFC cham-pions. The NFL Youth Football Fund gave a $200,000 grant to pay for and install turf inside the dome.

Once the Super Bowl is over, the turf from The University of Indianapolis’ recreational dome will be transported to Arsenal Tech-nical High School. Arsenal Technical High School just put the finishing touches on their brand new 20,000 square foot education and fitness center that will open a few days before the big game. Thanks to the NFL, Ar-senal Tech now has a new gym, football field, music studio and a 1,000 acre green house.

Rogers says the education and fitness center is just one example of many positive impacts on the people of Indianapolis.

“This is a huge improvement enhance-ment for this community and about 30,000 residences,” said Rogers. “That is particularly our most heartfelt and most impactful legacy for Super Bowl XLVI.”

Since 2008, roadways all over the state have been improved to make Indiana a more comfortable and welcoming place. Over 55 million tax dollars have been spent to im-prove the roadways around town, and there is still construction going on today.

Indiana is expecting over 150,000 visitors, and the NFL predicts that the big game will bring in between $125 million and $400 mil-lion to the city. Rogers says it is impossible to

predict the exact amount of money that will actually stay in the city, but she is confident that it will bring more people to Indianapo-lis in the future.

“One of the main goals is to show these 150,000 people what an amazing city Indianapolis is,” Rogers said. “Second is to encour-age them to come back and enjoy Georgia Street along with the other attractions like the Children’s Museum and the motor speedway.”

There was a state fund used to enhance and reconstruct Georgia Street to the conven-tional site it is now. The street is lined with trees and centenary poles wired with electric-

ity. During the week of the Super Bowl, there will be tents, tailgating, food and heaps of people hanging out on Georgia Street.

The office manager of The Slippery Noodle (a local bar downtown), Ms. Sara Etherington says they are predicting about four months of business in 10 days.

Also, there have been numerous hotels built in Indy for the Super Bowl. The all-glass, 34-story J.W. Marriott hotel has over 1000 rooms for the guests of Indianapolis.

Although the game is short term, the long term effects are extensive. The money may come and go, but the roadways will stay, the recreational dome will stay, the Learning and Fitness Center will stay, the turf will stay, the J.W. Marriott will stay, Georgia Street will stay and the roman numerals XLVI will stay forever on Lucas Oil Stadium.

The game will keep on givingThe real benefit that Super Bowl XLVI will have on Indianapolis is the infrastructure that will be left behind.

Monument CircleOn Jan. 24, 30-feet-tall Super Bowl Roman numerals “XLVI” will be placed on the monument circle through the week of the Super Bowl. The numerals have been a tradition since 2008.

Convention CenterThe Convention Center will be turned into NFL Experience, an NFL-sponsored interactive theme park with games, autograph sessions, entertainment, and more. Tickets are $25 at ticketmaster.com.

Georgia St.The Village, a free source of entertainment for NFL fans, will be the “go to” place for fun. Georgia St. will be a part of this three-block-long football festival. There will be something for everyone.

Some people are skeptics. Some people believe. But even the believers have many questions to how it is scientifically possible for spirits to roam the earth. It is a very hard concept to soak in, even for me. But by studying, watching and experiencing the paranormal, I can explain how it is scientifically possible. Even for you skeptics.

Energy. Ghosts manifest themselves by using energy from things. There are different types of energy and different ways they use it.

Using a lot of equipment is a must in capturing the best evidence in ghost hunting. Flashlights, digital cameras, video cameras, EMF (Electromagnetic field) detectors, digital voice recorders and many other ghost hunting tools all carry much energy due to their batteries. Ghosts can feed off of the batteries’ energy to speak into the recorder, which is called an EVP (electronic voice phenomena), turn a flashlight on, knock something over and even show themselves by manifesting. According to Trueghosttales.com, a full moon also brings out more energy in the spiritual world

because of all the energy and emotions in the world.

Another type of energy is the energy given off by humans. Yes, we carry energy in our body in which spirits can link to. Like batteries, they can use humans to speak and move things. When this happens, it also affects the human as well. A common feeling when a spirit uses energy in a person is goose bumps. Every hair on a persons’ arm stands up wherever the spirit is touching or taking the energy from. The feeling of being nauseous or lethargic also occurs a lot when the taking of energy is happening. It is a bad

and sick feeling, but in a good way, because it will lead to great evidence.

Ghosts do not only have the power to use energy just to speak or move things, they also have the power to transfer. Transferring is where a spirit transfers inside a persons’ mind. During this, the person can feel the emotions of the spirit doing the transferring. For example, if a lady is bludgeoned to death by a couple of convicts, she will have the feelings of sadness and grief. By transferring into a person, it can make that person feel the exact emotions of the spirit causing the

person to act that way.Transferring can also lead to the thing

we all fear. Possessions. Possessions happen when an evil entity, or in other words, a demon, transfers inside of a person. People think that possessions are everything just like “The Exorcists” or “The Devil Inside.” False. During a possession, the demon makes the person become angry all of the sudden, wanting to hurt or possibly kill the people around them. According to lead investigator of the Ghost Adventure Crew, Zak Bagans, a red filter goes over their eyes forcing them to not remember anything.

This is very dangerous. Possessions usually happen to people who open themselves up to the spirits. People who are taunting, making the evil spirits extremely mad or people who show the most fear are the ones that are targeted as well.

Demonic possessions can lead to bad health and very different, evil behavior within a person. There are a few cures for possessions. Mild possessions tend to need holy water or a rosary in order to fight

off the evil inside a person. But the major possessions usually need an exorcism done by a catholic bishop. In order to prevent demonic possessions, either stay away from the demons or make sure to bring the tools needed in case a possession happens while doing the hunt.

People that hunt for the other side need to be educated and prepared for what could happen to them. With all the energy that is in the world, the ghosts can show that they are real in many different ways. We just have to accept it.

Paranormal activity: clear scientific explanation that defies all odds

January 20, 20128 Opinion

When my father was 22 years old he moved to Wilmont, Arkansas. He didn’t move from a different state, a different region of even from this continent. This move wasn’t to go to a job, it wasn’t with his mother, his father or a girlfriend. This move wasn’t even a calculated choice.

This was life or death. My father, Xuyen Ich Hinh, was born in 1953 in Saigon, Vietnam. As a child he had a rather normal existence. As the tensions between communist North Vietnam and South were on the rise and changed his life forever.

The day before Saigon fell in 1975, my father made the decision that shaped his entire life. That day his older sister Hai had planned an escape from the war torn country to come and make a new life in America as a translator for doctors in America, the problem was that in order to get to the airport and on a plane with her younger brother Hong in tow, Hai needed to get through airport security. My father was the answer. Since he had come up points short on the exam that allowed him to go to college, my father was forced into the army. Since he had passes that allowed him to go where civilians weren’t he was to escort them to the plane that would allow them to continue to live.

As he took them through security, his youngest brother posing as his oldest sister’s child, smuggling him out in hopes

that he could prosper somewhere that wasn’t torn by war. What they were doing was illegal. In order to keep my father safe and alive, they made a world altering decision to bring my father with them on the plane to America. Stuffed into his small teenaged brothers clothing bringing with him nothing but what he had on him, he made this decision to improve their lives exponentially.

What I’m getting at with this story is that, what we are given here in the U.S. is an opportunity that is unparalleled in any other country on this planet. This is a place where anyone from any background can take the world by storm.

My father was forced to join the army in Vietnam because he missed the grades to become a scholar. This is a concept that is completely foreign in the U.S. but in

countries like Singapore and Israel, every citizen is forced to serve in the military in their country when they turn eighteen. In the Middle East there are hundreds of women in prison for having sex outside of marriage and running away from arranged marriages and husbands.

Can you imagine? To be unable to make choices about your future because

your country dictated what you had to do? The life you are afforded when you live

in this country is what many dream about. Living here, is nothing anyone should take advantage of. Daily, people attempt to come to this country. From my own experience, 17 years ago my father applied to have one of his siblings come from Vietnam. It wasn’t until 15 years later that they were approved. Getting here is not easy.

The life you live here in this country is a gift. Make the most of it. Follow your dreams. Go to school and graduate in a country where education is free and of no lesser quality than the kind you pay for. Please, all I’m asking American teenagers, is that you care.

“I would steal a Klondike Bar for a Klondike Bar.”

What would you do for a Klondike Bar?

My father is an alcoholic and I was diagnosed with Separation Anxiety when I was younger. Until now, only a very small group of people knew about this and if it weren’t for this editorial, it would have remained that way.

I never wanted to tell anyone about my past because I did not want people to pity me or treat me differently. Also, I did not want to let the things that happened in my past determine my future. I wanted to move forward with my life and do everything that I could possibly do to ensure that I never experienced what I did years ago.

However, some do not share my feelings about life or they simply feel as if they are trapped in the events that occurred in the past. Just because someone grew up in poverty or with a father who was never around, it does not mean that they cannot pursue their dreams.

Take Tererai Trent for example. Oprah Winfrey named her one of her all-time favorite guests. Trent’s story is what really made a huge impact on my life. She grew up in rural Zimbabwe in a small hut with her family. Because she was unable to attend school, she secretly learned how to read and write from her brother’s books.

At the age of 20, Trent knew that she had to make a difference. She wrote

down her dreams of moving to America, attending college and earning her Ph.D.. With the help of her determination, Trent was able to cross off every single one of her dreams, and in 2009 she earned her Ph.D. in agriculture.

Trent could have easily gotten caught up in the cycle of poverty that her family in Zimbabwe faced. Instead she took her future into her own hands and escaped her troubled past to make a better life for her and her family.

After hearing Trent’s story was when I realized that I needed to keep not worrying about my past so that I could keep making the most out of my future.

Yeah life, sucks sometimes, but if you keep using the past as an excuse as to why your future is not turning out the way you want it to, then you are never going to

progress in life. Stop posting on social

networks about how awful your life is. Trust me, I have been there, but even on my worst of days, I just remember that there is someone in the world who is going through a much tougher time than I am.

With this mind set, I was able to appreciate every aspect in life, including the bad parts.

How can I be upset when my mom takes away my cell phone when according to cfr.org, over 200,000 people have died in Darfur due to the genocide that is sweeping the nation?

There is no reason to have a contest over whose life is worst via twitter, when there will always, no matter what struggle you may be facing, be someone who has it worse off than you. By dwelling on how bad things may be, you will never make progress in the future. Things get a whole lot better when you stop focusing on how bad your life is now, or may have been in the past and start looking towards the future.

Difficult circumstances no excuse to not achieve goals

I realized that I needed to keep not worrying about my past so that I could keep making the most out of my future.

Eight student directors. Sixty-four student actors. Countless hours of work from the classes, the crew and the teacher. One night. One Acts.

The Southport theater program has been giving senior theater students opportunities to direct plays since theater director and teacher Ms. Babara Whitlock came to Southport. Seniors who volunteer get their hands dirty with nearly every aspect of running a theater production when they chose to direct a One Act. They choose or write their own plays, cast their own peers, put together costumes, sets, lights, sounds, practice schedules and more. However, one of the most important parts of the annual One Acts is the unity it brings to many different students of Southport.

Southport held open auditions for One Acts and every student was casted. Some high schools make requirements for students to audition for their own One Act programs—from being a Thespian to being in a theatre class. Southport’s theatre program does not

require any student to “pay their dues” to the theater program before they are cast as a part. The open auditions are the welcoming arms that pull students together and into the many aspects of theatre at Southport.

The Journal had quite a few staffers participate in the 2012 One Acts. However, the 20 percent of our staff that made up the production is only a small percentage of those somehow involved in the production. Underclassmen, upperclassmen, students of different races, backgrounds, and interests came together to complete the production.

“The theater is magic,” Whitlock said. “... It’s okay to be who you are.”

Southport’s theater programs facilitate the coming together of many diverse students who are encouraged to just be themselves. The diversity of the students that participate in the theater’s Coffee House clearly proves that One Acts is not the only production that brings students together that might otherwise not be brought together.

Southport’s theater program is more than

just a group of people at Southport that produce plays, One Acts, Coffee Houses, musicals and other productions. It is more than great opportunities and learning experiences. It is a place where students of all different kinds can come together and feel the unity of the production.

Everyone should take the time to appreciate Southport’s theater program for their hard work and the unity, among the other wonderful aspects, it brings to Southport. Whether it is letting a director know that their One Act went well, donating money or items to the theater, being a member of the audience or more, Southport’s theater program is sure to welcome you and appreciate you for being a part of the unity. There is a place for everyone in theater. With over a hundred students participating this year and tons of time spent for the night of the show, the program can be expected to grow in the future. There is no reason not to donate time, money or help to a valuable program at Southport.

New Year’s resolutions seem irrelevant, unattainableby Ali DeHart

Managing Editor-of-Content

Happy 2012. Oh yeah, and Happy Two Weeks of Dieting. Happy Two Weeks of Gym Overcrowding. Happy Two Weeks of Making a Futile Attempt At Being a Better Person.

The two-week period of bliss of the New Year is officially over, which makes me wonder how many New Year’s resolutions are still in place.

With every New Year comes unrealistic resolutions that most people can admit to making more than once in their lives. I have made them in the past too, but I’ve hardly ever stuck to my resolutions for more than a couple of weeks. “DeHart” of the matter is that New Year’s resolutions are unrealistic and often turn out to be useless wastes of time.

As I mentioned, even I have made New Year’s resolutions that didn’t work out. Three years ago, I made a resolution to journal at the end of every day for the upcoming year. It worked for about the first week until school started up again. I was back to my school, sleep, cheer with maybe some time for eating schedule. Goodbye, journaling. My resolution wasn’t something huge, but I still couldn’t stick to it. I didn’t complete my resolution because I simply wasn’t committed to making time for what needed to be done.

New Year’s resolutions paint a picture that Jan. 1 will contain some sort of motivation that Dec. 31 didn’t. A resolution is just a fancy name for procrastination, just like not doing homework or a project until the day it’s due. When students procrastinate, they wait

until the very last minute to do something about what needs to be done. That’s the same principle that is being used when people make their resolutions.

Assuming that New Year’s resolutions are thought about and decided on before New Year’s day, people are just making a goal for something that is a good amount of time away so they don’t have to worry about it right then. Resolutions just give false support to a person that wants to lose a couple of pounds or spend more time worrying about eating right. Why not start the day that losing weight comes to mind? Why wait until the new year?

The beginning of a year is certainly not better than any other day during the year. If people actually want to change something about their life, then they will do so whether it’s Jan. 1 or not.

At some point, a New Year’s (or any time of the year) resolution might seem necessary. I wouldn’t start thinking about my resolution and then immediately commit to it. Start early. A successful New Year’s resolution shouldn’t be based off of December problems. Think about things that would actually be beneficial in the long run, and also

think about how to go about reaching the goal. Thinking about the specifics of the resolution shouldn’t be procrastinated. When a resolution becomes more thought out, it will also become more realistic.

Second, focus on making concrete goals. For example, a very common (and general) New Year’s resolution is to lose weight. Instead of just being general, set weight goals for each week or month. Using short-term and realistic goals will

make it easier to actually be held accountable. A lifestyle change

shouldn’t have to happen right away. Make sure to reevaluate

the progress of the resolution after a certain amount of time, also. Sometimes after a month or so, resolution-

makers can realize that they can achieve more or less than

they previously thought.Let other people in on the

resolution so they can help the resolution-maker stay on task. The most popular New Year’s resolutions, according to USA.gov, include getting

fit, eating healthier, volunteering and managing stress. Those are resolutions that more than one person could achieve together.

A New Year’s resolution is something to be careful about. Forget what day it is. Make sure to always be thinking about how to make the resolution more effective. Happy New Year Resolution Making—The Right Way.

letter to the editor

I was disappointed to read the recent “1st and 10” regarding the firing of Joe Paterno. I have limited space to deconstruct the

aforementioned editorial, but I can assure you there is plenty

of misinformation regarding Coach Joe Paterno and the recent tragedy at Penn State. The editorial attempted to assert that Coach Paterno “let his ego get in the way,” and that he made a calculated decision to put the football program in front of sexually abused children. The editorial went so far as to say that Coach Paterno “contributed” to the scandal. Many in the media have said far worse. CBS commentator Dan Bernstein said “Joe Paterno is almost dead, thankfully.”

ESPN and a lot of other media outlets engaged in a despicable exhibition of sensationalism as the story began to unfold. Most made a clear rush to judgment to blame Coach Paterno for the recent events that occurred at Penn State, probably because Paterno’s name gets people to read under the headlines and click on links to articles. Coach Paterno took vague, secondhand information about a former employee of his football staff to university superiors and the head of university police, which is exactly what the law tells him to do. These superiors may have attempted a cover-up and are currently being prosecuted for perjury, while Paterno was found to have done nothing wrong. The only real blemish against Paterno is his own admission

that he wished he “had done more.” Who wouldn’t wish they had done more in the face of knowing what we know today? Mike McQueary, the man who told Paterno that he witnessed inappropriate actions concerning a child, has since come forward to say that he did not completely inform Coach Paterno of the graphic nature of what he had witnessed. Also, I have heard several reporters falsely accuse Paterno of failing to go to the police. The University Police at Penn State are actual police, not the rent-a-cops you see at I.U. These guys carry real guns, arrest real people, respond to 911 calls and have jurisdiction over the campus.

The hypocrisy is transparent. The same University that failed to do their job in this terrible series of tragic events fired the man that correctly followed university and state protocol. As the story unfolds, we are finding out that some of the same trustees that fired Coach Paterno actually watched a football game with Jerry Sandusky in 2010 after being briefed about the allegations against him. In terms of ESPN, they orchestrated a deliberate attack against a great man. At the same time they criticized Paterno for not intervening, we recently have found out that ESPN held evidence for nine years that a Syracuse basketball coach was sexually molesting young children, and they did absolutely nothing.

Many of the facts surrounding the case are still not out. Unfortunately, the media filled in the missing pieces of the puzzle with the worst case scenarios and held the largest names responsible. Many of these scenarios have already been proven baseless and without substance. I have confidence that Paterno will be vindicated as the facts continue to emerge. I believe we will begin to remember him for the man he is, not the man the media portrayed him to be in the wake of this horrific tragedy.

Seniors Patrick and Ryan Raftery co-directed the One Act “The 42nd Annual Pie-Rating Convention.” Original-ly, Ryan had planned for this One Act to be a back-up to his own script that he was writing independently.

“I came to a dead-end,” Ryan said. “And then ... when we were actually starting to cast it wasn’t finished, so I stuck with this one.”

Unfortunately, he never finished his work.“It looked witty and it looked a little corny,” Patrick

said. “But ... they’re supposed to be funny so I chose it.” Although they are both co-directing their One Act

this year, they were separated in last year’s One Acts. Ryan was in one of the casts while Patrick worked on crew.

Since this is the first time that they both have co-directed something, Patrick said that they got along during the process.

“We disagree every now and then,” Patrick said. “But since we’re twins we usually have the same prefer-ences.”

Senior Robyn Garmon co-directed the One Act, “This is a Test,” with junior Cristian Ayala. Garmon read other selections and even purchased some to use but chose to use “This is a Test.” Garmon connected with this One Act and felt like she shared common experiences with it.

“... This one I just felt was funny because I myself have test-anxiety issues.” Garmon said. “Like whenever I take tests, I swear the most ridiculous things hap-pen during them. And so I guess I kind of related to it because it was comical in a way.”

Along with Garmon, Cristian Ayala also co-directed “This is a Test.” Ayala is the first junior to co-direct a One Act.

“I think it was good and we did a good job on it.” Cristian said, “... people laughed.”

Garmon was in the cast for last year’s One Act, “Paper or Plastic.” She had decided to be a student director this year since she had already worked in other parts in the theater including the cast, crew and tech.

Senior Sklyer Brantley, director of the One Act “Zombie Family Picnic,” said that he chose this One Act because of how fun it was.

“It’s full of puns,” Brantley said. “And I thought it would be interesting to work into making people like zombies.”

Brantley has been involved with theater produc-tions since his junior year. He has been involved with crew for the musical and also in a One Act last year.

Brantley said that he saw the skit differently from his director, and that is why he wanted to direct his own this year.

“I saw certain things last year in my script, and I didn’t like the way they were interpreted on the stage,” Brantley said. “I just like the way I’ve inter-preted this script.”

With graduating this year, directing is something he is looking into doing later in life.

“I am very interested in that,” Brantley said. “Just because I like interpreting things into way I feel.”

Senior finds success in the alley

By Nick HollandReporter

It was the tenth frame. He only had two rolls left, and he still hadn’t missed. He was perfect, strikes in every frame. He stepped up and rolled the ball down the lane into the row of pins, hoping for perfection. He waited and watched as every pin fell down, giving him his tenth strike of the night. Now he only needed to bowl one more for that number that had eluded him for so long, 300.

Senior Mark McMur-trey has been bowling since he was only 5 years old, and has re-cently done something that is extremely rare.

McMurtrey’s father and both of his older brothers have taught him everything. He cred-its them for everything he knows about bowling as well as his success in the sport. McMur-trey refers to himself as an “exact clone” of his oldest brother Craig McMurtrey.

“I bowl just like him,” McMurtrey said. “In ev-ery way we bowl exactly alike. I have really picked up a lot of my technique from him and the way he bowls.”

His bowling coach Mr. Mark Lundsford who has coached both of McMurtrey’s broth-ers, the middle one Danny as well as Craig, explained that McMurtrey is more like Craig then anything. But Lundsford disagrees with McMurtrey about who is the better bowler between him (McMurtrey) and Craig. McMur-trey believes that his brother is better, and with good reason too.

Craig averages 234 pins in the games that he has bowled against his brother, where McMurtrey only averages 215. But even with this, Lundsford still believes that McMurtrey is the better of the two brothers.

McMurtrey currently has the second high-est average in Conference Indiana this season at 212 pins per game. Lundsford commends McMurtrey not only for his often high-scoring performances, but also the way he leads the team.

“Mark (McMurtrey) is a very loud, vocal leader,” Lundsford said. “He does a good job of helping the other bowlers with what they need help with. He’s also re-ally good at getting the team, pumped up before each match.”

McMurtrey has very great practice habits, according to Lundsford. Throughout most of the practice, McMurtrey will work on nothing but picking up spares. Lundsford is very confident in saying that McMurtrey’s ability to pick up difficult or un-usual spares is the best part of his game. Over the course of the past

season, Lundsford also thinks that McMurtrey has improved his overall game 75-80 percent. But, even with his abilities, McMurtrey be-lieves that he can improve his game in many ways.

“I can always improve,” McMurtrey said. “You can always get better at something, no matter what it is.”

McMurtrey plans to continue improving and to take his abilities in the sport of bowl-ing and give them to a college bowling team

one day once he leaves high school. McMur-trey hopes that he can continue his storied bowling career when he attends the Univer-sity of Northwestern Ohio in Lima, OH this upcoming fall.

Once he’s there, he hopes that he might finally be able to replicate that first game of his senior season that produced that evasive and historic number, 300.

“Caution! Future state champions under construction.” This is the one phrase posted on the door before entering the wrestling room. This is the first and last thing every Southport wrestler sees on their quest for victory.

The entire wrestling season has been leading up to this one event. This is the time for players to show off their abilities and prove that they have what it takes to com-pete with the big dogs.

As sectional gets closer, the boys are adjusting their practices to better prepare themselves for the event. Instead of long drawn out practices, the team has shortened practice times to create a more intense and tasking environment, along with a strong competitive feel (A necessary change con-sidering the number of competing schools attending the event). Head Coach Mr. Todd Weaver hopes to prepare everyone by creat-ing real life situations.

According to Weaver, two separate sec-tional events combine to create one tough regional tournament. He says it will be vital for the team to place high in sectional so no player is stuck wrestling a number one seed the first round of the tournament. Weaver also says that some of the weight class competition is so intense that coming in first or fourth could be determined by just one wrong move.

On the team, there are multiple players that have had experience in the later rounds

of the tournament. Senior Brian Boucher and junior Casey Kauffman have both wrestled in competitions in past sectional rounds.

Boucher says he is the strongest he has ever been. Every year he has gotten bigger and faster and now that he is a senior he is more focused then ever and in top physical shape. Boucher also says that competition has gotten easier ever since he cut down to 145 pounds earlier in the season. When it comes to the sectional, Boucher has set the bar high for himself and expects at least sec-ond place so he can seal a strong seat in the regional meet. With this being the last year at Southport for Boucher, he hopes to leave everything he has on the mats.

Kauffman shares the same attitude as his teammate Boucher saying he feels stronger and quicker than ever (due to working out all offseason). Kauffman attributes his suc-cess to working hard every day and making sure he stays in shape. By keeping his body in peak condition, Kauffman hopes to outlast any wrestler that crosses his path.

Along with these two wrestlers past expe-riences, the team has had a very productive year as far as individual growth.

“In the past we have had distractions with kids with the wrong attitude and work ethic,” Weaver said. “This year everyone wants to be here and work as hard as they can.”

Now that Weaver and Garner have the right batch of kids at their side, they can concentrate strictly on their competitors. According to Weaver, this dedication has in turn resulted in nothing but improvement from the team.

Sectional is now only a week away and the boys have this whole time to prepare for the big event. The team will not find out who they are competing against until the Monday before the tournament. With Perry Meridian, Ben Davis, Pike, Decatur Central and mul-tiple other schools competing, the Cardinals will have to prepare themselves for a variety of different opponents.

“I confidently believe that we will have several section-al champs this season,” Weaver said.

As the state tournament inches closer, the wrestling team focuses in. Take a look at some of the favorites going into the tournament.

By Taylor DeHartReporter

As I walked up to Assembly Hall for my first Indiana Univer-sity basketball game, I could feel the buzz.. I stood in line and by the time the usher took my ticket, I could not stand still. As I walked in and saw the thousands of people dressed in cream and crimson, I could not help but smile. For the first time in a while, people could wear their Indiana University gear proudly.

Indiana’s tradition is all about winning. And this season, at 15-3, they have done a lot of it. But the way that I.U. wins is a huge part of the legacy that they have built for themselves.

I.U. wins classy and with respect. They don’t get in bench clearing brawls and they don’t receive technical fouls like it is their day job.

Bob Knight and Branch McCracken are the two most well-known coaches in Indiana University history. These two men are responsible for building the tradition of I.U. basketball. McCracken was a born- and -raised Hoosier. He not only had a great record while at Indiana (364-174) but he seemed like a very respectable man. He also was never convicted of any recruiting violations.

Knight is unquestionably the best coach in I.U. basketball history. He built the powerhouse that I.U. is known for by winning three titles in his era. He was known for being one of the greatest coaches in NCAA history. Although he was one of the most controversial coaches, he was always regarded as one of the coaches with the cleanest programs. The majority of Knight’s players graduate and

I.U. basketball has been a national powerhouse for more than a century. In 111 seasons, Indiana basketball has had only 17 losing seasons, three of which have been in the last three years. They have 20 Big Ten titles to go along with five national championships (1940, 53’, 76’, 81’, 87’). They are

tied for third with the most national champi-onships in the history of the NCAA, and they are currently 12th for the most wins in the history of D-1 college basketball.

But then I.U. got a little off track, with the arrival of Mike Davis. Although Davis did an okay job at I.U., okay is not good enough when talking about Hoosier basketball. Davis took the team to a national championship in 2002 but after four mediocre seasons, with a record of 115-79, the team dismissed him.

Then came Kelvin Sampson. He had no coaching morals. Sampson was winning, but not how Indiana is known to win. He was a cheater, and did nothing to help the program. Although he did put up a good record, he illegally contacted at least 16 players over more than 550 phone calls. He left the program in shambles. Due to the fact that Sampson was convicted of all of these violations, I.U. was left with three years’ probation.

Tom Crean is now the coach of the Hoosiers. Although he has not been loved in his previous seasons as coach because of his 28-67 record, he silenced many of his critics this sea-son.

But with the 2011 recruit of 6’11” freshman phenom Cody

Zeller, the tides have turned for Crean in Bloomington. In fact, Crean has now landed five quality commits for next season in-cluding three of that are ESPN Under Armor Top 100 recruits. But nobody expected them to be this good this soon.

Not many people expected I.U. to be one of the top teams in the nation for a few more years, but with a young core of players that will most likely return to the line-up next season, the dominant nature of I.U. bas-ketball will be back and will stay for a while.

Even the Indiana vs. Purdue rivalry is better when both teams are good and competitive. It makes for an exciting game un-like the rest. The atmosphere is more enjoyable and the fans are into it. This year’s I.U. team is looking to get their first win against Purdue since the 2007-2008 season. I.U has lost five consecutive games vs. Purdue. The rivalry is one of the best in the game. The rivalry is great and it is even better when no team is expected to blow the other out.

Although they have only played a little over half the games scheduled this season, there is no doubt that it is true when people say that IU basketball is back. And most importantly, the tradition can continue.
