Columnist Luke Andrews admits defeat | 5 An independent newspaper at the University of Oregon www.dailyemerald.com SINCE 1900 | Volume 107, Issue 34 | Tuesday, October 11, 2005 Recreation facilities nearly complete New, improved sports spaces are in the works, including a track and outdoor tennis courts BY JOE BAILEY NEWS REPORTER TIM BOBOSKY | PHOTO EDITOR Dennis Munroe, the director of Physical Activity and Recreation Services, talks about the tennis courts under construction near East 18th Avenue. Construction of new tennis courts, grass fields and a jogging track is nearing completion, a project that University officials hope will significantly upgrade campus recreational facilities. Depending on the weather, construction could be complete by mid-November, Physical Activity and Recreation Services Director Dennis Munroe said. The facilities will be available for limited use only until spring 2006. The project began after construction of the Living Learning Center displaced the old tennis courts in summer 2004. University policy dictates that because Housing was building on top of the tennis courts, Housing was responsible for replacing them. Interim Vice President for Student Affairs and Director of University Housing Mike Eyster said he saw the relocation of the tennis courts as an opportunity. “We could have placed those tennis courts any number of places,” he said. “We actually got together as a group to figure out where we could get the most value for students.” The new facilities cost approximately $1.8 million, half of which was paid by Housing. The athletic BY JARED PABEN NEWS EDITOR but at our level, the goal is to give students the option and not lose evidence,” she said. If evidence is collected during the SANE, page 4 INDIGENOUS, page 3 TENNIS, page 3 Some Health Center nurses are now certified to provide services to sexually assaulted women BY KATY GAGNON NEWS REPORTER KATE HORTON | PHOTOGRAPHER University Health Center nurse practitioner Cindy Smith describes the new procedure for collecting evidence from sexual assault victims. She has specialized training through the Sexual Assault Nurse Examiners program. All collected evidence will be kept in a locked refrigerator or closet until submitted to police, Smith said. “Students can report to law enforcement, Crowds gather at the EMU Amphitheater to welcome and celebrate cultural diversity Mark Franco, headman of the Winnemem Wintu Native American tribe, spoke during Indigenous Solidarity Day on Monday, telling stories and relaying his tribe’s struggles with the federal government. But the man didn’t know until he got here that Monday was Indigenous Solidarity Day, otherwise known as Columbus Day or AntiColumbus Day. To him, it didn’t matter. Franco came hoping to persuade people here to protect water and fight for social justice, he said. “I’m quite hopeful that this generation will really be able to make a change,” he said. Monday’s celebrations drew speakers and audiences to the EMU Amphitheater for about 11 hours. Groups circulated petitions, sold Tshirts, played music, displayed art and donned red bandanas to show support for oppressed indigenous people worldwide. Highlights included a performance by nationally known musician and spoken-word poet John Trudell and a conversation between Trudell and Wayne Morse Chair of Law and Politics Wilma Mankiller, the first female chief of the Cherokee Nation. The two-hour talk drew a nearly full EMU Ballroom crowd. But the day had different meanings for speakers, organizers and a student participant. Franco said the day wasn’t about condemning Christopher Columbus. Miners who came west in the mid-1800s and government actions since then have hurt his people, not Columbus. “I don’t know him; he’s not related to me,” Franco said. For University sophomore Shalan Ryan, codirector at the Native American Student Union, the event meant showing people that “indigenous peoples aren’t just surviving. We’re thriving.” The events also showed native people that there are role models for them, she said. For Ryan, who is one-quarter Santa Clara Pueblo Native American and three-quarters Irish and Italian, the day meant supporting indigenous people, not condemning Columbus. SANE provides help for rape victims The University Health Center is now able to examine men and women who have been sexually assaulted and can collect evidence to be used in prosecution. In the past, students who were sexually assaulted could receive a follow-up medical exam, sexually transmitted-infections screening and emergency contraception from the Health Center, but they would have to go to the hospital emergency room to have evidence collected. Now, Health Center nurses with specialized training and clinical experience in assault examinations can collect evidence after a sexual assault. The Health Center’s Sexual Assault Nurse Examiners give students the option of having evidence collected in an environment where they feel more comfortable, said Cindy Smith, a SANE certified nurse practitioner. Smith is currently the only nurse certified to perform the exams, but two more nurse practitioners at the Health Center will soon be able to perform them, Health Center Director Tom Ryan said. A typical exam in which evidence is collected may last about two hours, Smith said. The exam may include collecting DNA by using swabs, documenting injuries or bruises, collecting a urine sample or preserving clothing worn during the assault. Campus celebrates indigenous solidarity University expands transportation options online With UO’s subscription to AlterNetRides, students and faculty have access to carpooling without the regular scheduling hassles BY KATY GAGNON NEWS REPORTER Students, faculty and staff looking for a carpool to campus can now use an online carpool database to connect with others. The University has started subscribing to AlterNetRides, a Web service launched in January 2002 designed to “provide the most innovative and inexpensive carpool/ride share service possible,” according to the San Francisco company’s Web site. This is one of several attempts University has made to reduce the amount of people driving to campus. Other efforts include using student incidental fees to buy bus passes in bulk and creating a biking infrastructure on campus. Currently, the Department of Public Safety issues carpool parking permits, but few have taken advantage of the permit, said Steve Mital, sustainability coordinator for the Environmental Health and Safety department. In the past 10 years, DPS only issued about 33 carpool parking permits, Mital said. Mital hopes the database will encourage more people to carpool to campus. “It’s hard to find people who live in your neighborhood and go to school at the same time and come home at the same time,” he said. The carpool program is “designed to organize that stuff for you,” Mital said. On the Web site, a driver can type in his or her neighborhood and input when they go to and leave from campus. The Web site can also be used to find rides for other occasions and destinations, such as a ride to another city. So far, two University riders are listed through the database. Several universities throughout the country are registered with the Web site. Participating universities are charged an annual fee of $200. DPS will fund the program here. A university’s success with the program de- pends on how well the Web site is promoted, said Mark Evanoff, founder of AlterNetRides. Mital said he will hire a student as carpool coordinator this week. The coordinator will work with individuals and help them navigate the new database. He or she will also to promote the new program on campus and track the program’s success, he said. A carpool consists of three or more people. A carpool parking permit costs $82 for a year. Carpoolers can purchase a reserved parking permit for an additional $214. Annual parking permits are $167 for faculty and $94 for students. When split between riders, the cost of a permit is minimal, Mital said. Mital said increased carpooling to campus CARPOOL, page 4 Commentary NEWS STAFF AARON DUCHATEAU | ILLUSTRATOR (541) 346-5511 PARKER HOWELL EDITOR IN CHIEF SHADRA BEESLEY MANAGING EDITOR MEGHANN M.

I want to talk about something that many people are doing and even more people are talking about. Done by both porn stars and politicians, the novelty of this pastime has grown with increasing frequency. I’m talking, of course, about blogging. Why? What did you think I was talking about? Over the past few years it has become more popular than ever to post musings online for the world to see. Numerous candidates in last year’s election cycle kept campaign blogs on their Web sites. But blogging isn’t just for famous people. Saturday The Register-Guard reported that MySpace — a social networking site — had replaced Google as the most popular site on the Internet (measured in page views per month). One of the more accessible features of MySpace allows users to keep blogs in addition to maintaining their directory profiles. Some of these blogs are updated once in a blue moon. Some of these blogs are updated several times a day. Some of these blogs focus on day-to-day events in the author’s life, while others are full of pseudo-intellectual posturing in the forms of poems and essays. Blogging, which originated through investigative Internet journalists who gained notoriety in the late ‘90s, has been a gold mine for the parasites at the cable news networks. Now, instead of repeating what they read in newspapers, they merely have to hop GABE BRADLEY THE WRITING ON THE WALL online and repeat what they read in a number of prominent news-oriented blogs. But the purpose of this column is not to chronicle the already well-documented blogging fad; rather, my job is to provide insight, analysis and pure speculation. The first question most people have about any fad is, “Will it last?” In nine out of 10 cases, the answer is no. In this case, though, it’s difficult to say. People love to express themselves. Whether people will continue to write their innermost thoughts and bad poetry is not really the question. The question is whether they will continue to do so in an electronic, public forum, or if such ramblings will return to speckled composition books from which they once dwelled. Personally, I don’t get the appeal of blogs because it seems like a lot of work for very little payoff. I mean, how many people actually read these things? With INB O X Anti-Endangered Species Bill: unacceptable The Endangered Species Act should be strengthened to provide more protection for the ever-decreasing number of endangered plants and wildlife. Pombo’s Anti-Endangered Species Bill fails on all fronts. Why do biological species become endangered in the first place? Loss of habitat. A plant or animal species cannot survive if it has no place to grow and prosper. Why is protecting plant and wildlife habitat more important than human’s short-range economic interest? Because without plants and wildlife, humans cannot survive. Why are laws necessary, and why do environmental groups and ecolawyers donate countless hours and dollars trying to protect biodiversity? hundreds of thousands of blogs out there, the majority of bloggers must be sending their thoughts out into cyberoblivion to die lonely deaths. When I write something, I want as many people as possible to read it and hopefully respond. For instance, I wouldn’t continue to write this weekly column if the Emerald didn’t have a wide enough audience to keep a nearly constant stream of hate mail flowing through my inbox. Perhaps that’s why I don’t get the appeal of blogs; they’re not something new to me. Publishing my random thoughts for public consumption is my job, the daily grind, so to speak. There are some differences, of course. I don’t get to write my own headlines; I have to write on a certain time frame and follow certain guidelines; I have to ask permission in order to use profanity (shit, piss, damn); also, I have to let other people cut up my words before they see the light of day. In exchange for those restrictions, however, I have access to a much larger audience than is available to the average blogger. So to all you bloggers out there who want a bigger audience, all you need to do is have me killed and then submit samples of your work to the Oregon Daily Emerald on the third floor of the EMU. gbradley@dailyemerald.com Because wilderness and wildlife have no one to defend them against human self-interest. Developers want to be compensated for loss of “productive land.” What compensation is offered to the species whose home is cut down, grazed over or sucked dry? Ask the Southern California Kit Fox, or the Wisconsin Cougar. Oh yeah, you can’t, because they’re extinct.

Even more exciting is the fact that the University of Oregon is about as green as they come. At the end of last year, University students overwhelmingly approved an ASUO ballot measure to power our student union solely with wind energy. For no more than 60 cents per term, per student, the EMU now derives its electricity through a renewable, turbine-driven power source. Those who campaigned in favor of the wind energy ballot easily convinced the student body that in the midst of a global crisis over energy, it was important for the University to delve into alternative, environmentally friendly energy sources. The University still receives much of its power from hydro-electric sources, but the success of the Wind Energy Initiative is a powerful symbol of students’ commitment to lessen their effect on the environment. Also impressive about the University is the fact that every year, ASUO Street Faire planners work to make their event recycling-friendly. This year, ASUO Marketing Director David Watson expressed his desire to “make it a zero-waste production.” Anyone cruising the sidewalks last week in search of an available trash can attest to the fair organizers’ logistical ability to reduce trash and promote recycling. Although not specific to Eugene, AlterNetRides.com is a carpool service now accessible to University students and faculty. AlterNetRides, with a database of drivers and riders, provides a simple way to reduce the burning of fossil fuels. Because modern infrastructure makes it difficult for many to operate without the help of a motorized vehicle, carpools and other forms of public transportation provide one of the best ways to get where you’re going while reducing your reliance on fossil fuels. We hope students and staff will take advantage of this easy new service. Unfortunately, there are still many places in the United States that lag behind Oregon in terms of environmental friendliness. Late last month, the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Resources passed an energy bill that would have, among other provisions, fostered the construction of oil pipelines in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. Although Republicans later dropped the bill, it demonstrated some legislators’ willingness to prioritize short-term fuel solutions over long-term environmental stability. Thankfully, logic prevailed. But unlike the University, the federal government is still unwilling to research and implement non-traditional energy options. Sadly, as long as national government encourages environmentally harmful exploits, it will become increasingly harder to devise and carry out long-term solutions to conserve our natural resources. Oregon residents, University students especially, deserve praise for having the continual goal of a healthy, thriving environment. Even when such a goal incurs a small cost or inconvenience, locals are willing to make a personal sacrifice for the sake of something larger. Such a strong focus on the Earth should not be taken for granted and should be emulated even more in the future. We applaud this state and this school.

Hayward Field is being considered as a prospective host site for the 2008 U.S. Olympic Trials, and Munroe hopes the new warm-up track will increase the quality of Hayward in the eyes of the selection committee. “The early indication was they liked this new development,” he said. New lighting will allow students to use the track during open hours. Depending on the weather, the tennis courts and track will be open for limited use this winter. The addition of two new grass fields will not be ready for use until late spring.

Also, students don’t have to press charges to give a report. The program is funded by the state’s Sexual Assault Victims’ Emergency Medical Response Fund, which will pay for the exam regardless of whether the patient wants to press criminal charges, Smith said. Evidence can be collected for up to 84 hours after an assault, but certain evidence, such as traces of drugs in urine, will diminish sooner, she said. After an assault, Smith said, students should not urinate, eat, drink, smoke, bathe or brush their teeth. Smith recommends assault victims bring clothing worn during the assault and a friend for support. Smith has been working to receive certification for two years. During her training, she watched court cases, rode with Eugene police officers and observed similar exams in the emergency room. Smith said her schedule will be cleared so she can see a sexual assault survivor as soon as possible, but she will only be able to perform the exams during the day. “If it’s the middle of the night and they need to be seen, they should go to the emergency room,” she said. One in six Oregon women has been raped, and more than 22,000 women in Lane County have experienced rape, according to a 2003 study by the National Violence Against Women Prevention Research Center.

Duck volleyball Volleyball swept in Los Angeles The 0-6 Ducks will face Corvallis Friday and attempt to garner their first Pacific-10 Conference win BY JEFFREY DRANSFELDT LUKE ANDREWS SPORTS REPORTER EXCESSIVE CELEBRATION When he took charge of the Oregon volleyball team, head coach Jim Moore emphasized that it would take time to elevate the Ducks to the Pacific10 Conference elite. This was never more evident than last weekend, when Oregon’s high hopes of stealing a match against ranked opponents evaporated with consecutive sweeps to UCLA and USC. Oregon’s six consecutive losses to start Pac-10 Conference play has the team looking forward to facing unranked rival Oregon State on Friday in Corvallis. OSU will be Oregon’s first unranked opponent after playing five consecutive ranked teams. Even so, Oregon State won’t be an easy win, having beaten Arizona State in five games in Tempe, Ariz. To open the conference schedule the Sun Devils swept Oregon. It doesn’t get any better after Oregon State — Oregon has a two-match homestand against No. 2 Washington and then Washington State on Oct. 21 and 22. The opportunities are there for Oregon to win matches, it just has to take advantage of them, Moore said. “We have to compete every night,” Moore said. “We didn’t do that Friday night (against UCLA) and that has to change.” Measuring whether they are improving or winning is secondary to getting a consistent effort, he said. “Right now, we can’t measure whether we’re improving or not if one night we don’t show up to compete and the next day we do,” Moore said. Kristen Bitter, Oregon’s 6-foot-4-inch middle blocker, said getting the experience of playing in a hostile environment helped. “It’s really important that we’re able to play with the same level away that we do at home,” Bitter said. Oregon started slowly against UCLA, losing its first game 30-15. UCLA started with a 9-2 run and Oregon only got within five the rest of the game. To begin game two, Oregon (10-7 overall, It was a sad day for the Emerald sports desk For the first time in, well, ever, I am happy to say it: I suck. Apparently, as it was pointed out to me some 300 times over the course of last Saturday’s game by loyal Duck fans, I picked the Arizona State Sun Devils to beat the Oregon Ducks. Needless to say, I was wrong. Oregon pulled off the 31-17 upset. And unlike Duck fans out there who were also worried about Oregon’s chances against the Sun Devils in Tempe, my worries were printed in 8,500 copies of this paper. Even worse, I picked against my own school and had my picture right above it. I’ll see everyone in a few weeks; I’m entering the witness protection program. I guess I could blame my shaky-at-best performance on jitters, as it was my first time making Pacific-10 Conference selections. But, then again, there is no excuse for correctly picking only one out of four games. I chose California to beat UCLA. I was wrong. I picked Washington State to beat Stanford — wrong again. In fact, the only game I picked correctly was USC over Arizona, but everyone and their dog picked the Trojans last week. After all, USC entered the game winners of 26 straight and Arizona, which had lost 11 of its last 14 conference games, really had no chance. To put my performance in perspective, journalism academic advisor Sally Garner, who by her own admission knew little about any of the games on Saturday, correctly picked three out of four games. Her only loss came because pesky Stanford upset Washington State. Congratulations Sally. Maybe we should switch jobs. Now don’t get me wrong; I’m not bitter. I was more pleased than anything that many of my conference picks went against me. I was glad to see Cal finally play a quality opponent. Now Jeff Tedford and his Bears have been exposed after easily getting conference wins against Washington and Arizona and generously climbing the national polls. I was also elated to see Stanford rebound with a win on the road at Washington State. The Cougars look very susceptible, and remember, Pullman is arguably Oregon’s toughest remaining road trip this season. And, of course, it was the biggest win of the season for the Ducks against the No. 17ranked Sun Devils. Saturday’s game in Tempe just may be the defining moment for this Oregon team in search of a return trip to a prominent bowl game. But, you know how I am with predictions. So if I happen to do something crazy like pick the Washington Huskies to beat the Ducks this weekend in Autzen, please don’t badger me about it — I did it for Oregon’s good. landrews@dailyemerald.com NICOLE BARKER | SENIOR PHOTOGRAPHER Mira Djuric, fourth in the Pacific-10 Conference in kills per game, serves the ball against Stanford Sept.

Duck soccer Soccer can’t net first Pacific-10 win Hat trick, second-half spurt downs the Ducks who face No. 4 UCLA at Papé Field on Friday BY SCOTT J. ADAMS SPORTS REPORTER NICOLE BARKER | SENIOR PHOTOGRAPHER Darcie Gardner is one of the many freshmen that head coach Tara Erickson has started this season. She has started in seven of the Ducks’ 12 games. The Pacific-10 Conference schools of the Grand Canyon State proved too tough for the Ducks over the weekend, who lost on the road to both Arizona and Arizona State by a combined score of 7-2. On Friday, Oregon fell 4-2 in its conference opener against the Wildcats and was blanked by the Sun Devils 3-0 on Sunday. Going into their game against Arizona (7-3-2 overall, 2-0-0 conference), the Ducks (8-3-1, 0-2-0) were riding high after winning Wyoming’s UniWyo Shootout Oct. 2 en route to posting the best start in program history. Not seen out of Oregon this weekend were the two essential parts of its game that have led to its eight wins — an offense that scores at least once an outing and a defense that seldom allows more than one goal. The loss to Arizona State (6-5-2, 1-1-0) was especially uncharacteristic of the Ducks under first-year head coach Tara Erickson, who saw her team’s drive fade in the second half under the desert sun. “We played a good half, but we didn’t play for 90 minutes,” Erickson said. “I think fatigue was a factor, but we didn’t fight through that and take care of the little things that allowed us to be successful earlier this season.” Led by their young but reliable freshman goalkeeper Jessie Chatfield, the Oregon defense held the Sun Devils at bay through a scoreless first half, but buckled early in the second.

CLEANJEAN’S COIN-OP LAUNDRY 240 E. 17th (between High & Pearl) 0-6 conference) took an early 9-4 lead with four kills by Mira Djuric and one from Jaclyn Jones. UCLA (9-5, 2-3) responded with a 8-2 run to take a 12-11 lead that it wouldn’t relinquish. Game three was much like game one, with UCLA running off a 5-1 start and Oregon tying the game at 13 before UCLA took the lead for good and ended the game 30-24. UCLA received a large boost from the return of junior outside hitter Colby Lyman, who missed her previous five matches with a bone bruise in her left knee. Lyman totaled 13 digs and four aces. Nana Meriwether had nine kills and had helped from Kaitlin Sather and Nancy Barba, who each had eight kills. Djuric led Oregon with 11 kills and Jones had six. Less than 24 hours later, Oregon played No. 17 USC (7-6, 3-2) and again had a difficult start, as it com- mitted 21 hitting errors in the first two games and hit 0.000 over that span. Oregon lost the first two games, 3020 and 30-19, improved in the third game, losing 30-23 and upped its hitting percentage to 0.159. Senior Kelly Russell had a teamhigh 11 kills, Djuric had 10 and Bitter had nine and an efficient 0.316 hitting percentage. “She hit ... high above the net,” Moore said of Bitter. “We keep trying to tell her that she’s got to make it so that other people don’t get to play with her.” Freshman libero Katie Swoboda had her second-highest dig total of the season with 24. Swoboda’s success is part of what Oregon needs to be win in conference play, Moore said. Her success was more impressive, he said, considering she was facing USC’s Debora Seilhamer, who has played with the Puerto Rico’s National Team. Seilhamer had 19 digs for USC. Bibiana Candelas, a one-time Pac-10 Player of the Week, had 11 kills. “She played unbelievably well,” Moore said of Swoboda. “We need to win some little battles before we worry about winning all the big battles.” Swoboda is No. 4 in the Pac-10 Conference, averaging 4.58 digs per game, only trailing Arizona State’s Sydney Donahue, Seilhamer and Washington State’s Jalen Pendon. “She is really talented,” Bitter said. “The sky is the limit with her, there’s no telling what she’s going to be able to do.” Djuric continues to lead the conference in service aces at 0.66 per game. She had four against UCLA and two against USC. Her powerful kills have her fourth in kills per game at 4.34. Setter Heather Madison is 10th in assists per game with 6.73. jdransfeldt@dailyemerald.com Soccer: Abrahamson, Garbin each score Continued from page 5 for the Sun Devils in the 50th and 56th minutes, respectively, giving them a comfortable 2-0 lead. Their front line struck again in the 61st minute as Elizabeth Bogus tallied her ninth goal of the season, driving a shot past Chatfield into the top right corner of the Ducks’ net. Bogus’ goal was the last scored in the game, ending the toughest 12 minutes of Oregon’s season thus far. The Duck offense could not get past goalkeeper Kim Bingham of Arizona State, who held Oregon to just its second scoreless game of the season. The junior from Pleasanton, Calif., grabbed three saves, highlighting her second shutout this year. Not even Oregon’s leading goal scorer Nicole Garbin had an answer for the Sun Devils. The senior forward has been an offensive juggernaut this season, but was held to just two shots. The Ducks have been hindered by injuries all season, two of which sidelined starters Andrea Valadez and Cristan Higa on Sunday. The reliable tandem were not in Erickson’s lineup because both were injured Friday against the Wildcats. Erickson turned to her bench for support, calling upon freshman Taylor Callan and junior Sabrina DeMonte to play. DeMonte made the most of her outing, managing one shot on goal. Erickson was pleased with Callan, who started in place of Higa. “Taylor had a good game stepping in and starting for us at the last minute,” Erickson said. Oregon may have lost to No. 23 Arizona two days prior, but the Ducks’ offense did not go quietly. Garbin and fellow senior Katie Abrahamson scored against the defending Pac-10 champions, who walked away the victor thanks to senior Mallory Miller, who recorded her second hat trick of the season. The game was hard-fought and played physically by both squads, leading to 31 fouls called. Joining Higa and Valadez in the trainer’s office after the game was Chatfield, who was treated after colliding with Kelly Nelson of the Wildcats during the game. Arizona head coach Bill Tobias was glad to get a win out of the goal-heavy game, which featured a combined 35 shots. “This is good lesson for our team and especially our young players,” Tobias said. “Pac-10 play is very physical. We have to be prepared for that. No one is going to back down from anyone.” The Ducks look to right their ship this weekend as the conference’s Los Angeles schools come to Papé Field. On Friday, Oregon faces No. 4 UCLA (11-1-0, 1-0-0) at 5 p.m. and then plays USC (6-4-1, 0-1-0) Sunday at noon. sadams@dailyemerald.com Tuesday, October 11, 2005 | OREGON DAILY EMERALD | 7 Classifieds To place an ad, call (541) 346-4343 or stop by Room 300 EMU E-mail: classads@dailyemerald.com Online Edition: www.dailyemerald.com Room 300, Erb Memorial Union, P.O.
