While NASA is famous for its shuttlemissions and its astronauts, it is alsofilled with detectives attempting to findclues about the formation of Earth. UT’sown Josh Emery is helping NASA dis-cover new things about the planet.

Emery, assistantprofessor in theDepartment of Earthand PlanetarySciences, is part of aNASA mission calledOrigins, SpectralI n t e r p r e t a t i o n ,R e s o u r c eI d e n t i f i c a t i o n ,S e c u r i t y - Re go l i t hExplorer (OSIRIS-REx) that seeks toobtain samples of anunnamed asteroid,1999 RQ36.

Emery was firstintroduced to the proj-ect when his formerprofessor from theUniversity of Arizonaapproached him at a conference.

“I got involved through a prioracquaintance with the program’s princi-pal investigator, Michael Drake,” Emerysaid. “Drake is a former professor ofmine, and I ran into him at a conference.And it turned out I had observing tech-niques he wanted to use on the targetasteroid.”

Emery has been working on the pro-gram for approximately a year and ahalf, but some scientists have been

involved since 2002.The mission is set to launch in 2016

and will yield samples in 2023.According to NASA, this is the first mis-sion to carry samples from an asteroidback to Earth.

Michael Drake, a cosmochemistryprofessor at the University of Arizonaand principal investigator of OSIRIS-

REx, said the mission will answer scien-tists’ many questions about the solarsystem.

“Where did life come from? Why areyou and I here?” Drake said. “We havemany questions like this. Imagine 4.5billion years ago, as the rocky planetswere growing, objects the size of Marswere crashing into Earth. Any organicmaterial there at the time had no chanceto survive because it would vaporizefrom the energy. Therefore, we must

look at asteroids to see these organicmaterials.”

NASA said asteroids can provide sci-entists with vital clues to the formationof our solar system.

“Asteroids are leftovers formed fromthe cloud of gas and dust — the solarnebula — that collapsed to form our sunand the planets about 4.5 billion years

ago,” a NASA pressrelease said. “Assuch, they contain theoriginal material fromthe solar nebula,which can tell usabout the conditionsof our solar system’sbirth.”

The RQ36 aster-oid, discovered in1999, is roughly thesize of five footballfields and presentsNASA with the possi-bility of discoveringorganic molecules,such as carbon, whichare crucial for life.

Emery said theasteroid can provide

scientists with a blueprint for the mak-ings of our solar system.

“One of the things that scientistsdon’t have a lot of information about isthe abundance and types of organicmaterial that was around when the solarsystem was taking form,” Emery said.“We see the material all over space, andit’s found on some meteorites that fall toEarth.”

UT students generallyknow about job fairs whenthey take place on campus,since a classmate or friendmight dress up in a suit ordress that day and headover to a main gatheringplace on campus.

But an opportunity forjob seekers UT studentsmight not know about is theJob News Knoxville CareerFair, taking place at theKnoxville Expo Center onAug. 3 from 10 a.m. to 2p.m.

Job News Knoxvillesponsors the event. JobNews Knoxville is a branchof Job News USA, whichhas offices in 26 cities andservices 95 cities nationally,said Job News RecruitmentConsultant John Cylc.

“We’re one of the leadingrecruitment advertisers inthe country,” Cylc said. “Wedon’t do staffing. We strict-ly do recruitment.”

The fair takes place quar-terly. The last one was onMay 4, with 41 companiesparticipating and between1,100 and 1,200 job seekersattending, he said.

“Tougher times make it alot more popular, so weshould do pretty well at theevent,” he said.

The range for job seekersattending the fairs isbetween 1,000 and 1,400,he said.

“This is a very general-ized event,” Cylc said. “It’sgoing to attract all types ofdifferent industry, frommanufacturing to engineer-ing to retail and everythingin between. And a lot ofthose companies are look-ing for those straight-out-of-college, those career-typecandidates.”

The main thing that sep-arates the Knoxville CareerFair from career fairs at UT,he said, was the KnoxvilleCareer Fair’s emphasis onnational companies, ratherthan local ones.

The fair has 26 compa-nies signed up right now,but Cylc expects over 30companies once the daycomes.

“There’s a few we’re justwaiting for the registrationforms (from),” he said.

Employers that will be atthe job fair include placeslike Captain D’s, Home

Depot, H&R Block andCVS.

Other employers areWoodmen of the World, aninsurance company, andSecurewatch, which is look-ing to hire a sales positionin contract sales for securi-ty companies.

“It seems like we’re real-ly picking up on the con-struction industry, due tothe storms,” he said. “Wehave a few companies com-ing out who are looking forthe construction site work-ers, project managers,things like that.”

To solicit employers totake part, Job News sendsout local sales people andcontacts everyone it doesnormal Web and print adswith. Job News also utilizesflyers and social media toget the word out.

He said this year’s cropof employers is quitediverse, and he suggestsstudents prepare for thefair.

“Make sure they get theirsuits pressed or their dressready,” he said. “It’s veryimportant to look like youput some effort into thisevent, and you’re not justshowing up.”

Besides dress, the otherpoint of emphasis for jobseekers is the all-importantresume. Cylc suggests con-tacting a professionalresume company to lay oneout.

“Even if they’ve only hadpart-time work through col-lege, any experience wouldlook good to show that youmake an effort to get outthere and earn your living,”he said.

For someone who hasnever attended the job fairbefore, Cylc advises to bebold.

“Don’t hesitate to go upand speak to someone,” hesaid. “You have to be confi-dent and sure of yourself. ...Find out what the companyis about and what type ofperson they are lookingfor.”

Reggie McElhaney, JobNews regional vice presi-dent, called the job fair aunique experience.

“It gives the job seekeran opportunity to make afirst impression versus justbeing a resume that is e-mailed over to a companyor faxed over,” McElhaneysaid.

NARRAGANSETT, R.I. — Twenty dollars for a parkingplace wasn’t going to ruin Ellen Majka’s day at the beach.But she was still taken aback when she arrived at RhodeIsland’s popular Scarborough state beach and learned thatparking fees had nearly doubled.

“It seems a little steep to me,” said Majka, of Westfield,Mass. “Add in the price of gas, and it starts to add up. ButI didn’t come two hours to turn back over $20.”

As states and municipalities continue to grapple with therecession’s fallout, few turned to big, noticeable tax hikesthis year. Instead, they’re slashing spending and turning tomore modest, narrowly crafted increases in fees and fines— nickel-and-diming their way to a balanced budget.

Louisiana and South Dakota raised state park fees, whileCalifornia increased vehicle registration costs andWisconsin started charging more to retake the state drivingexam. Georgia raised fees on day care licenses, fireworkspermits and traveling circuses. Oregon raised fees on med-ical marijuana, while Rhode Island imposed taxes on over-the-counter drugs, sightseeing tours and smartphone appli-cations.

Fines are going up in many places too. Tennessee law-makers increased traffic fines. Wyoming raised fines fortrucks exceeding weight limits. New York city increased

fines for taxi drivers caught talking on a cellphone whiledriving.

In Maryland, fee increases were common solutions thisyear as lawmakers struggled to balance the books withoutacross-the-board tax increases.

Not even newborns went unaffected, as birth certificatefees doubled from $12. The fee for a vanity license platedoubled from $25. A surcharge on filing land records willdouble from $20.

Kim Malle, who lives on Maryland’s Eastern Shore, isn’tonly unhappy about the recently approved fees; she’s alsoconcerned about rising tolls that are under consideration.The Grasonville resident may have to pay more to take theBay Bridge across the Chesapeake Bay when the toll risesfrom $2.50 to $5 on Oct. 1 and up to $8 by 2013.

“I think this state has too many fees, definitely,” Mallesaid after walking out of a Motor Vehicle AdministrationOffice, where she was returning tags for a vehicle that shehad sold. “I don’t mind certain things, but I just think thestate overdoes it.”

Julio Reyes, who was at the same office to pay the cer-tificate of title fee, said the recent jump from $50 to $100to title a new car was too much, too fast.

“I think maybe $20 more; that’s O.K.,” Reyes said. “100percent? Too much.”

Fee increases can be an attractive alternative for lawmak-

ers worried about losing political points or increasing hard-ships by raising income or sales taxes across the board.

Professional license fees are a cost of doing business.Recreational fees are paid only by users. Don’t want to paya tax on a new smartphone app? Don’t download it.

“The folks who run government weren’t born yesterday,”said Larry Gerston, a political science professor at San JoseState University. “When they see a fee that has a built-inuser base, in times of difficulty they’ll do whatever they canto extract revenue from that base. Raising fees is often eas-ier than raising taxes. They can avoid the controversy andthe public backlash.”

Or, as Maryland Democratic state Sen. RichardMadaleno of Montgomery puts it: “Politically, it doesappear that fees are certainly something that are more fea-sible — no pun intended.”

But some lawmakers are tiring of the practice of usingfees to avoid the dreaded T-word. Texas state Rep. RichardPeña Raymond proposed a bill this year that would requirelawmakers to officially label any proposed fee increase a taxincrease.

“They say, ‘Look, it’s not a tax, it’s a user fee,’” saidRaymond, a Laredo Democrat. “I say that’s bull. The publicis cynical already. We have to be honest and call it what itis: a tax.”

Piotr Luszczek, researcher in the EECS department, works from his office in the Claxton Education Building onMonday, July 25. Luszczek is working to pass the one-gigaflop mark in a UT-developed application on the iPad2.

1908 — FBI foundedOn July 26, 1908, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is born when U.S. Attorney General Charles

Bonaparte orders a group of newly hired federal investigators to report to Chief Examiner Stanley W. Finchof the Department of Justice. One year later, the Office of the Chief Examiner was renamed the Bureau ofInvestigation, and in 1935 it became the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

When the Department of Justice was created in 1870 to enforce federal law and coordinate judicial pol-icy, it had no permanent investigators on its staff. At first, it hired private detectives when it needed feder-al crimes investigated and later rented out investigators from other federal agencies, such as the SecretService, which was created by the Department of the Treasury in 1865 to investigate counterfeiting. In theearly part of the 20th century, the attorney general was authorized to hire a few permanent investigators,and the Office of the Chief Examiner, which consisted mostly of accountants, was created to review finan-cial transactions of the federal courts.

Seeking to form an independent and more efficient investigative arm, in 1908 the Department of Justicehired 10 former Secret Service employees to join an expanded Office of the Chief Examiner. The date whenthese agents reported to duty — July 26, 1908 — is celebrated as the genesis of the FBI. By March 1909,the force included 34 agents, and Attorney General George Wickersham, Bonaparte’s successor, renamedit the Bureau of Investigation.

The federal government used the bureau as a tool to investigate criminals who evaded prosecution bypassing over state lines, and within a few years the number of agents had grown to more than 300. Theagency was opposed by some in Congress, who feared that its growing authority could lead to abuse ofpower. With the entry of the United States into World War I in 1917, the bureau was given responsibilityin investigating draft resisters, violators of the Espionage Act of 1917, and immigrants suspected of radi-calism.

Meanwhile, J. Edgar Hoover, a lawyer and former librarian, joined the Department of Justice in 1917and within two years had become special assistant to Attorney General A. Mitchell Palmer. Deeply anti-radical in his ideology, Hoover came to the forefront of federal law enforcement during the so-called “RedScare” of 1919 to 1920. He set up a card index system listing every radical leader, organization, and publi-cation in the United States and by 1921 had amassed some 450,000 files. More than 10,000 suspected com-munists were also arrested during this period, but the vast majority of these people were briefly questionedand then released. Although the attorney general was criticized for abusing his power during the so-called“Palmer Raids,” Hoover emerged unscathed, and on May 10, 1924, he was appointed acting director ofthe Bureau of Investigation.

During the 1920s, with Congress’ approval, Director Hoover dras-tically restructured and expanded the Bureau of Investigation. Hebuilt the agency into an efficient crime-fighting machine, establishinga centralized fingerprint file, a crime laboratory, and a training schoolfor agents. In the 1930s, the Bureau of Investigation launched a dra-matic battle against the epidemic of organized crime brought on byProhibition. Notorious gangsters such as George “Machine Gun”Kelly and John Dillinger met their ends looking down the barrels ofbureau-issued guns, while others, like Louis “Lepke” Buchalter, theelusive head of Murder, Inc., were successfully investigated and pros-ecuted by Hoover’s “G-men.” Hoover, who had a keen eye for publicrelations, participated in a number of these widely publicized arrests,and the Federal Bureau of Investigation, as it was known after 1935,became highly regarded by Congress and the American public.

With the outbreak of World War II, Hoover revived the anti-espi-onage techniques he had developed during the first Red Scare, anddomestic wiretaps and other electronic surveillance expanded dra-matically. After World War II, Hoover focused on the threat of radical,especially communist, subversion. The FBI compiled files on millionsof Americans suspected of dissident activity, and Hoover workedclosely with the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC)and Senator Joseph McCarthy, the architect of America’s second RedScare.

In 1956, Hoover initiated COINTELPRO, a secret counterintelli-gence program that initially targeted the U.S. Communist Party butlater was expanded to infiltrate and disrupt any radical organizationin America. During the 1960s, the immense resources of COINTEL-PRO were used against dangerous groups such as the Ku Klux Klanbut also against African American civil rights organizations and liber-al anti-war organizations.

Only two states optedfor across-the-board taxincreases this year toresolve budget deficits,according to SusanUrahn, managing direc-tor of the Pew Center onthe States.

Illinois lawmakerspassed a 67 percentacross-the-board incometax increase, whileConnecticut legislatorsvoted to raise the state’ssales tax rate from 6 per-cent to 6.35 percent andimpose it on new servic-es including manicures,pet grooming and yogaclasses.

For the majority ofstates, spending cuts andfocused fine and feeincreases were the pre-ferred approach.

States aren’t alone inraising fees. Colleges anduniversities haveincreased fees — andtuition — to make up forfunding cuts. Cities, too,are getting into thegame.

On Tybee Island, Ga.,beach tourists areshelling out about$870,000 a year more forparking meters and tick-ets than they did justfour years ago. After aseries of increases tohourly rates and fines,parking now competesneck-and-neck with prop-erty taxes as the islandcity’s top source of rev-enue. Meters and park-ing are projected to raise$2.15 million a year forthe island city; propertytaxes revenues are pro-jected to raise $2.16 mil-lion.

“It seems like every-where they can find aplace, they want to sticka meter. They’re hungryfor revenue,” said DougHall, who’s been told bycity officials they’re look-ing to convert eight free

parking spots to meteredspaces in front of thesmall shopping center heowns.

Providence, R.I.,recently enacted a fee fordisposing of a mattress.Philadelphia hiked park-ing meter fees as part ofan aid package forschools, which were fac-ing a shortfall created inpart by cuts in state aid.Greensboro, N.C., dou-bled fines for parking ina fire lane from $25.

Lawmakers say thenew fees and fines arejust keeping up with thetimes. Rhode Island, asummer playground formany in the Northeast,last raised its beach feesin 2002. Smartphoneapplications didn’t evenexist when lawmakersimposed the sales tax onthe purchase of softwareat a retail computerstore.

Rhode Island lawmak-ers said they onlyendorsed fee increasesafter exhausting the listof state services or pro-grams that could be cut.They say a bigger,across-the-board incomeor sales tax increasewould have been a fargreater burden on tax-payers: the fee and taxincreases will only raise$20 million in new rev-enue for a state budgetof $7.7 billion. Earlier inthe year, lawmakersbalked at an ambitiouscall by independent Gov.Lincoln Chafee toexpand the sales tax toraise $165 million.

Critics of fee increas-es say lawmakers whofavor them often believetaxpayers won’t notice asmall fee increase. RhodeIsland state Rep. RobertWatson disputes that,saying consumers oftenwill change their behav-ior to avoid higher fees.

“I think people makedecisions based on beingnickeled and dimed,”

said Watson, an EastGreenwich Republican.“People will drive acrosstown to save a dollar. Iabsolutely think peoplemight decide to go to acertain beach becausethe fee is lower.”

Some disgruntled fee-payers are consideringeven bigger moves.

Tom Tompkins wasblunt when asked aboutthe fee increases whilewalking out of a motorvehicle office inAnnapolis, Md.

“I want to move toDelaware,” said TomTompkins, 63, of GlenBurnie, Md. Tompkins,who is retired, cited anincrease in Maryland’ssales tax rate from 5 to 6percent, approved in2007. The lifelongMaryland resident saidDelaware, which has nosales tax, looks moreinviting all the time.

“It’s more than annoy-ing,” Tompkins said ofhis state’s new taxes andfees. “I mean, if you fig-ure that you pay stateincome taxes and thenyou have all these feesand taxes on top of whatyou have left after youpay state and federalincome tax, it’s prettysubstantial, and I’m veryserious about relocatingto a state that’s more taxfriendly.”

MEMPHIS, Tenn. — The TennesseeHigher Education Commission staff isrecommending approval for theUniversity of Memphis to use theLambuth University campus in Jacksonas a satellite campus.

The 168-year-old United Methodistcampus closed in June after years offinancial difficulties and the loss of itsacademic accreditation. Its board ofdirectors accepted a $7.9 million propos-al by a coalition of local entities inJackson to acquire the campus for trans-

fer to the University of Memphis.The recommendation reported

Saturday by The Commercial Appealnow goes to the THEC board for expect-ed approval at a meeting on Thursday.The Tennessee Board of Regents willalso consider the transfer at a meetingon Friday.

The staff recommendation calls fordeveloping a list of metrics related toenrollment projections, accreditationrequirements and maintenance projectsthat will provide evidence to evaluate thesuccess of the project.

“An annual evaluation of these met-

rics, coupled with the significant plan-ning efforts that TBR and UM officialshave already undertaken, provides confi-dence that the effort to bring public high-er education to the Lambuth campus isfeasible with a good likelihood of suc-cess,” the staff recommendation says.

The approval of both higher educationgoverning boards are required steps in astate budget amendment that provides$5 million this year and another $6 mil-lion over the next three years to helpsubsidize the University of Memphis’operating expenses while enrollmentbuilds.

Univ. of Mem. to acquire Lambuth

How many times a day do you suppose you sayor hear the phrase, “Hi, how are you?” orsomething akin to that? How many times do youask it? I’m sure the answer to those two questionsis a lot. Now, how many different answers do youget? My guess is very few. The three best answersare: “good,” “well” and “fine.” If you must, “O.K.”or “all right” or “tired” are acceptable. Thinkabout it — How often do you lie when asked howyou are?

Just imagine the cans of worms that wouldbe opened if people were actually honest abouthow they were doing. For instance:

“Hi, Chelsea. How are you?”“Oh, hey. Well, I had to stay up until 3 a.m. last

night and get up at 6:30 a.m. so I’m about to fallover, I’m starving because I had to skip breakfast,I’m so stressed I’m about to pull my hair out andProfessor X is being a jerk and driving me crazy.How are you?”

That isn’t exactly the answer you hear everyday, but it’s probably closer to the truth than “I’mgood.”

So, why on earth are we all such terrible liars?Because that’s just what we’re supposed to dowhen someone asks us how our day has been.The question has become nothing more than aformality that naturally comes after “hello.” Let’sjust face the fact: Very few people actually carehow your day has been. I only bother telling three,maybe four people because they are the ones Iknow actually want to know whether ProfessorX is being a jerk and how that makes me feel.They are people who I know will listen to me asI rant about a bad day. They are the only ones Itrust with my true feelings.

I know that for some people, it’s far too easyto turn an “I’m good” into a self-pity party. Forothers, admitting they’re anything other than wellis hard because we just don’t want people to think

we’re having a hard time keeping things together.Well, that really doesn’t make any sense. Believeme, I’m preaching to the choir. I am of the manywho really should tell more people how I havebeen doing.

The unfortunate truth is we are all forced tobe something that we all, at least sometimes, hatebeing: human. The fact is humans feel pain andloss and fear. True, humans also feel joy andhealing and love. Feelings are strange things.They have power over everyone, but how muchof a certain emotion and what causes emotionsto arise is different for different people. Thoughit doesn’t always seem like it, it really is O.K. tohurt. It’s all right to be angry and stressed; and,whether or not we think it is, it’s all right to tellpeople when we are in pain. Of course, you shouldbe very careful to choose who and how manypeople in whom you confide. Wearing your hearton your sleeve is not a good idea. I know that Ican tell my roommate and a few close friendsexactly what I’m feeling. I also know that, if I putmy trust in certain individuals, the repercussionscould be catastrophic. So, to those people, “I’mwell.”

I cannot tell you how many times I know oneof my friends is holding back some struggle —big or little. I truly want to help, but they thinkit’s taboo to tell the truth when I ask, and I knowit’s taboo to keep asking them after they lie. SoI tell them they can talk to me if they ever wantto and leave not-quite-well enough alone and tellthem I’m well too.

Why must we all keep our struggles toourselves? Well, apart from the fact that we arejust human, it has a lot to do with one thing I hate,despise and abominate: gossip. I know it’s almostcliche, but the old game “Telephone” is a goodexample of it. The last time I played “Telephone,”what started out as something to do with JustinBeiber ended as, “A man died in a toilet.”

So, basically what I’m saying is don’t be afraidto be honest when answering the question, “Howare you?” But, also, answer with great discretionso the truth doesn’t die in a toilet.

Terrorism, terrorist — both words have been etchedinto the minds of millennials across the world, butespecially those of red-blooded Americans. Since 9/11American media has lead much of the USA to think ofMuslim, brown or Middle Eastern as synonymous with“terrorist.” Sitting in classes at UT I’ve witnessed thisfirst-hand, listening to the bias spewing of ignorantstudents in political science classes. My heart hurts everytime I hear anti-Muslim slurs, calling them terrorists;however, I’m hoping that the terror attacks in Norwaywill shift some perceptions. So many media sources arefailing to acknowledge that Ander Behring Breivik wasin fact a terrorist; instead they are depicting him as amad man, an individual, separating him from hisChristian Fundamentalism, anti-immigration valuesand flagrant opposition of multiculturalism and left-wingpolitics. Why is it that they aren’t painting him as aterrorist? Is it because he isn’t Muslim, or because heis white with blonde hair and blue eyes?

Days before the attacks in Norway Breivik posted a12-minute video on his YouTube page titled “KnightsTemplar 2083” as well as a 1,500-page manifesto. Outof curiosity I watched the video and was frightened tofind the level of hatred towards Muslims, the UnitedNations and America. Breivik seemed to think thatthe educational trend of multiculturalism was weakeningEuropean heritage and was as oppressive as theignorance they were educating against: going as far asto say that multiculturalism is anti-European hateideology created for the eradication for an entirepopulation. Cultural Marxism, says Breivik, is theweapon that the cultural liberals will use to weakenEurope, quickening its Islamization. He misquoted theQu’ran, saying that Muslims taught their children thatthey needed to lie to the infidels to obtain power. Afterwatching this video it was clear that he wanted to starta worldwide revolution, another religious militarycrusade. When questioned about the attacks he wasquoted as saying that they were “atrocious” yet“necessary.”

As a part of the “Knights Templar,” he and manyothers have taken the path of martyrdom in order tocleanse Europe. His YouTube post says, “If themulticulturalist elites of Europe continue to refuse tovoluntarily transfer political and military power to ourconservative revolutionary forces then the WW2 is likelygoing to appear as a picnic compared to the comingcarnage.”

The media has it wrong, he was not just a mad man,but a terrorist, one who had a specific agenda thattargeted the ideals he loathed. He specifically targetedthe government buildings in Oslo because of the LabourParty being in power, as well as the camp in Utoeyabecause it was run by the Labour Party as camps forpolitically active youth. This intentional attack uponLabour Party entities perfectly aligns with his self-proclaimed life purpose of cleansing Europe of the“Multicultural/Cultural Marxists” because the LabourParty supports much more liberal policies than he wouldfavor. His lawyer, Geir Lippestad, said: “He’s stated thathe went to Utoeya to give the Labour Party a warningthat ‘doomsday would be imminent’ unless the partychanged its policies.” The camp was filled with mostlyteenagers, who were members of the Workers’ YouthLeague, which is affiliated with the governing socialdemocratic Labour Party of Norway. His lawyer saidthat Breivik is fully aware of his actions and considershimself sane.

This is extremism at it’s finest and is most definitelyterrorism. Some news sources stated that, if convicted,he could serve up to 21 years in Norwegian prison. Ibelieve those who share his beliefs should be lockedup for life. From what he posted it’s obvious that he isn’talone in his goal of cultural cleansing. Pure hatred andrejection of difference must not be tolerated. Terror andhatred know no boundaries, and this is why themulticultural education that Breivik hates is such a crucialaspect of creating cultural appreciation and respectamongst the world’s people. It’s time the world stopsblaming terror attacks on Muslim Extremists and startsseeking the truth. Not only is it racist to automaticallyassume that Muslim Extremists are the culprits, but italso creates and maintains a veil under which otherextremist groups can attack with partial anonymity. Ifwe are to truly dismantle terror groups we must openour eyes and accept that those we fear are often thosewe least expect.

THE GREAT MASH-UP • Liz Newnam

The healthcare system in America is a completetrain wreck. That’s not really a revolutionarystatement, but the system itself is fouled in a muchmore meaningful way than the means we use tofinance it. The primary flaw in the healthcare systemis the philosophy Americans use in their approachto health.

Take the typical American’s lifetime relationshipwith his or her well-being. American children arelargely raised on a diet of poor cafeteria meals, sodaand drive-thru cuisine that fits easily into theirparents’ hectic schedules. They take part in littlephysical activity and are trained to eat at certain timesinstead of when they are hungry. These poor habitsfollow them to adulthood, where busy jobs and over-scheduled lives make exercise difficult and unhealthyfood a convenient option. Quite frequently, poorhabits such as smoking and drinking magnify theeffects of an already unhealthy lifestyle.

While seemingly ignorant, these lifestyle choicesare certainly an individual’s right. If the Americanmasses choose to make poor health decisions, theyare entitled to do so. In America today, however, thehealthcare system attempts to function as a band-aidinstead of a knee-pad. It would be much cheaper andmuch better for the individual if our healthcarepolicies encouraged healthy lifestyles instead offinancing medications and operations after a lifetimeof poor health decisions.

To witness the tragic theoretical flaws in Americanhealthcare, one must look no farther than retirementcommunities. Even wealthy Americans who canafford the best doctors and medications are notblossoming with energy and beaming with health.Our elderly populations are largely overweight,lethargic and feeble. After living life with poor diets,stress and limited activity, seniors turn to expensivemedications to reduce high blood pressure, highcholesterol, diabetes and countless other ailments.

But here’s the real kicker. Even after paying

exorbitant costs for dangerous cocktails ofprescription pills, few older Americans enjoy anydesirable quality of life. Instead of preserving andprotecting the health of the individual, Americanmedical philosophy simply enables the elderly to holdon to a small semblance of life after they have wreckedtheir health. Mixes of medication enable desperateindividuals enough stamina to do little more than eatand watch television. Their lives become meaninglessrepetitions of futility at too early an age.

If America had a social and political philosophythat took the initiative to incentivize healthy living,a large amount of the healthcare problem would takecare of itself. Citizens would need fewer trips to thedoctor, fewer medications and fewer operations.Michelle Obama understands this, pushing forhealthier practices in American homes and schools.She hopes that by reaching children at an early age,good habits can be formed that will carry over toadulthood.

The government can do more without spendingmore or encroaching on free choice. For instance,Washington needs to take the hard steps necessaryto cut subsidies for corn and byproducts of corn. Suchsubsidies have made highly processed, sugary foodsdirt-cheap. Citizens living on a budget today are moreapt to buy products that consist of refinedcarbohydrates and corn syrup because that’s whatthey can afford. Health standards need to be raisedfor fast-food chains so that healthier food choices areavailable at every price point. Additionally, publicschools should offer education on holistic well-being— i.e. eating habits, physical activity, mental health,etc. — so that students can make informed decisions.

Realistically, many Americans presented witheducation and healthy options would still choose tomake poor lifestyle decisions. It should not be thegovernment or other citizens’ responsibility, however,to support them at that point. Uncle Sam should fundprograms that educate and make healthy optionsavailable to all Americans. After everyone has hadan equal opportunity to attain a healthy lifestyle,however, it should be up to individuals to deal withthe positive or negative consequences of their owndecisions.

Robby O’DanielNews and Student Life Editor

In a summer full of superhero movies, unfortunately, it allcomes down to scheduling to determine what gets the mosthype and what gets the least.

In that respect, it’s unfortunate that the worst superheromovie of the summer, “Thor,” was placed in the coveted first-weekend-in-May Marvel spot, while the best superhero movieof the summer, “Captain America: The First Avenger,” cameout toward the end of July, a week after the titanic last install-ment of “Harry Potter.”

The major strength of “Captain America” is simply thesource material, which stands to this day as one of the most riv-eting origin stories in mainstream comics.

A weakling by the name of Steve Rogers (Chris Evans),hyped by the World War II fervor and the need to kill someNazis, as the movie tells us every young, red-blooded Americanwanted to do back then, was desperate to join the war. But hewas scrawny, often beat up and full of medical maladies.

His only strength is his stubbornness and his courage. Ol’Steve even attempts to forge documents to allow himself multi-ple attempts to get into the U.S. military. He fails every time,but Dr. Abraham Erskine (Stanley Tucci) sees the strong innerqualities that no one else sees and fast tracks him as a candidatefor the super-soldier program. An injection of the magic formu-la later, and he’s got that Captain America physique.

The origin story to “Captain America” is paced extremelywell. Director Joe Johnston and the screenwriters resist theurge to zoom through the origin story to get to the action-packed bits with Cap fighting his arch nemesis, the Red Skull.It takes most of the movie to get Cap both in the costume andfighting as a regular soldier in the war.

The movie manages to make believable the transition fromSteve just wanting to be a regular soldier to him actually fight-

ing in the red, white and blue garb. He starts out first as simplya spokesman for the U.S. military. He works performances withdancing girls, getting children to hassle their parents about buy-ing war bonds.

A bold choice of the movie is when Captain America takes

this schtick to the troops themselves and gets roundly booed.

It would have been easy to drive the movie off a cheesy cliffhere by having the soldiers immediately embrace Cap, butinstead, the movie takes the realistic route. The soldiers aren’tinterested in this fake soldier, dressed in a ridiculous costume,and just want to see more of the dancing girls. They have seen

the war, so they are desensitized to the mainstream’s syntheticversion of it, even if the rest of the world was entertained byCaptain America going from city to city and punching a fakeAdolf Hitler.

Evans is surprisingly adept at playing the leading man. Afterhis go-away, annoying performances in the two “Fantastic Four”movies, this is a surprise. But he manages the difficult role ofbeing both the young dreamer, wanting to be a part of the war,and the hero realized, standing up for the entire country.

The strength of the cast comes from its supporting players.Tucci fits well in the mentor role for Steve. One scene where heteases drinking with Steve only to pull the bottle away when heremembers that Steve has a test the next morning came acrossas genuine and amusing.

The major laughs come from Tommy Lee Jones’ excellentperformance as Col. Chester Phillips, the man in charge of thesuper-soldier program from the military side. He runs downSteve’s initial physique, but when he rolls a fake grenade towardthe soldiers — and Steve is the only one to fall on it — herelents a little. “He’s still skinny,” he says. Jones brings some ofthe dry humor he employed so well in “No Country for OldMen” here, and it works on every note. Jones also manages tonot just become a purely comedic character. His stern sceneslater showcase his range.

The people behind “Captain America” made so many rightchoices, but perhaps the best one of all was the decision to keep95 percent of the entire first movie set in World War II.Whether fleshed out in “The Avengers” or the next “CaptainAmerica” movie, Steve’s acclimation to modern times has awealth of story, certainly enough to merit its own movie.

For a “Captain America” franchise, the way this movie endsdoes not make a potential sequel seem forced, like with “IronMan” or “Thor,” but absolutely mandatory, considering thesheer possibilities of great storytelling.

“Captain America” story eclipses action

Tuesday, July 26, 20116 • The Daily Beacon THESPORTSPAGE

A week from today, Tennessee begins itsfall camp.

But with the season opener againstMontana just over a month away, some keypositions are still up for grabs.

Will a newcomer impress coaches enoughin fall camp to earn a starting position? Didoff-season training boost an upperclassman’schances of starting?

All of that will be decided over the nextmonth. But here’s part one of a look at 10position battles as UT heads into fall camp.

CCoorrnneerrbbaacckk::Despite putting up O.K. numbers last sea-

son (eighth in the SEC in pass defense andfourth in pass efficiency defense), the Vols’secondary has much room for improvement.At one point during the year, coaches didn’tknow whether they could afford to play anickle package, which uses five defensivebacks. The two safety spots look to be settledwith Janzen Jackson and Brent Brewer. Butthe cornerback position is still up in the air.Prentiss Waggner, who played both safetyand cornerback last year, and MarsalisTeague appear to be the top candidatesamong returning players. Junior collegetransfers Byron Moore and Izauea Lanierwere brought in to push for starting positionsand provide depth at the very least. Earlyenrollee Justin Coleman and sophomore EricGordon are also in the mix. Given the newlyadded depth and questions at linebacker,expect UT to use five defensive backs a lotthis year, regardless of who starts.

LLiinneebbaacckkeerr::This unit lost team captain Nick Reveiz

and two-year starter LaMarcus Thompson tograduation, so it was replacing two of itsthree starters already. Then the other starter,Herman Lathers, broke his foot during sum-mer workouts and will most likely be out untilOctober. So the Vols will begin the year withhuge holes to fill at all three spots. SeniorsDaryl Vereen and Austin Johnson have themost returning experience and ended springpractice listed as starters. Sophomore JohnPropst backed up Reveiz last year at middlelinebacker and makes up for his lack of speedand size with instincts, according to coaches.Junior Greg King missed virtually all of last

year due to injuries, but he played a big roleas a freshman two years ago. He has the sizeand ability to make an impact, but he hasn’tproven he can stay healthy. Freshmen A.J.Johnson and Christian Harris will each begiven ample opportunity in fall camp to earnplaying time.

WWiiddee rreecceeiivveerr::While sophomores Justin Hunter and

Da’Rick Rogers are the Vols’ top-two threatsat receiver, coaches are still looking for adependable slot receiver. Junior Zach Rogersreplaced an injured Gerald Jones early lastseason and played well. Sophomore MattMilton is still adjusting to the position afterplaying at quarterback and running back inhigh school, and needs to catch the ball moreconsistently. Early enrolee Vincent Dallasimpressed coaches and teammates in springpractice and was compared to former VolDenarious Moore. DeAnthony Arnett wasregarded as one of the top receivers in the2011 class and could get in the mix for play-ing time as well if he picks up the playbookquickly.

KKiicckk//ppuunntt rreettuurrnneerr::It’s no secret UT struggled in the return

game last year, especially at punt return. Itseemed coaches couldn’t find anyone whocould successfully catch a punt. The kickoffreturn game wasn’t nearly as bad, but it was-n’t up to the standards of coaches. Da’RickRogers had some productive returns towardsthe end of the year and is expected to havethe job this year. Devrin Young, an under-sized running back from Knoxville’s BeardenHigh School, is also expected to contributein the return game. A shifty runner, Youngseems to transition best to punt returner butwill also get a look at kickoff returns.

TTiigghhtt eenndd::Replacing Luke Stocker is no easy task.

That job will fall on Mychael Rivera, a juniorwho transferred to UT last year. WhileRivera saw plenty of playing time last yearin two-tight end sets, he didn’t have muchproduction (11 receptions for 112 yards).With Stocker’s departure, Rivera could havea “breakout” year. Freshman Cameron Clearand Brendan Downs will likely battle forback-up roles. Clear, a highly ranked recruit,is seen by some as a future offensive line-man with his size, but he has the hands toplay tight end. Downs, another earlyenrolee, has the advantage of going throughspring practice and all of summer workouts.More of a pass-catching tight end, he endedspring practice second on the depth chartbehind Rivera.
