After months of con-struction and slight com-muting inconveniences, the fruits of St. Cloud’s entrepreneurs are ready to be enjoyed.

Several new businesses have been opening up all over St. Cloud in the recent year, all of which are [PIXQVO�]X�\W�ILL�ÆI^WZ��character and uniqueness to our city that both locals and \W]ZQ[\[�_QTT�ÅVL�\W�TW^M�

One of which is the new establishment that has opened on the intersection of Fifth Ave. and High-way 23, a Midwest family friendly hangout, Brothers Bar and Grill.

The franchise was originally founded in 1990 in La Crosse, Wis., by Marc and Eric Fortney (hence the restaurant’s name) and has since spread the business to strictly Midwestern states. The St. Cloud location of-ÅKQITTa�WXMVML�WV�5Ia��making it the most recent venue of the 17 other Brothers locations found

throughout 10 states of the Midwest.

The interior has state of the art entertainment and an impressive bar scene, yet the décor still resembles the classic Midwestern lounge you can take the family to after a long day. It is an ex-cellent complement to the historic architecture that downtown St. Cloud takes pride in.

With such legendary hangouts in downtown St. Cloud, Brothers Bar and Grill will have to draw its attention from other classics such as D.B. Searle’s and The Red Carpet, which lay right down the avenue, play live music weekly, and have a large following in the area.

But Brothers certainly takes the cake when it comes to their food specials. With the latest updated menu from their executive chef Chris Bushelman, ev-eryday has a new deal rang-ing from Mom’s Monday, 25 percent off entire bill if shown a picture of kid, to Free Fries Friday, with any sandwich wrap or burger.

This is the third Broth-ers Bar and Grill to open in the state of Minnesota. <PM�ÅZ[\�*ZW\PMZ[�_I[�QV�Winona, which opened in 1992 and was the second Brothers to open nation-ally, but that venue closed last May.

The next business that

has found its way into downtown St. Cloud is the café, bakery, and pizza place, Seven Elephants Cof-fee. This restaurant is unlike anything St. Cloud has seen before and is one of the most unique new businesses \W�ÅVL�QV�\PM�IZMI�\PM[M�days.

The future of energy is taking place right here in St. Cloud.

In an attempt to create a cheap, renewable source of energy, Tom Byrne and Matt Julius have part-nered together to commercialize the use of algae power.

The potential of this energy program is mas-sive. Its costs are low, and unlike fossil fuel, its en-ergy is renewable and sustainable. Since algae pow-er is such a cheap source of energy, it could revolu-tionize the way the entire world uses energy. Even impoverished na-tions could afford to run their own algae tanks, giv-

ing power to their communities.

Julius, a professor here at SCSU, explained how he and Byrne began this collaboration.

“[Byrne] called me,” Julius said, “and wanted me to check out this project he’d been working on. He’s [with] Algae Biomass Organization. He found out that St. Cloud State had algae that was allegedly pretty good, and he wanted me to come and see this technology that they had. It was a good idea, but it wasn’t set up in a way that would work. So they asked St. Cloud State to get involved at

that point.”Here is a ba-

sic explanation of how algae power works. First, the strain of algae to be grown is chosen; different algae have dif-ferent purposes, and thus varying reasons to harvest them. Once a strain is chosen, it must be found in the wild, and isolated apart from other algae strains present in the sample taken.

Once the algae are suc-cessfully isolated, they are grown in a tank. Two tools used to encour-age algae growth are LED light-ing, and manure from dairy cows. An LED light cheaply and ef-fectively illumi-nates an algae

Students and facul-ty came by the masses for a chance to connect at Mainstreet.

The annual event in the Atwood mall was host to over 200 student organizations at SCSU, 20 of them being new groups this year.

Many groups had stations across the mall with the purpose of promoting their group or spreading aware-ness. They were split into several different groups such as Sports,

Academics, Cultures, Honors Society, and Interests.

The Tobacco Free Campus group set up a booth near Centennial Hall. Their goal was to help inform students of the new policy.

The SCSU Avia-tion Department also had a booth set up in the mall. With their program being shut down, the group aimed to promote the impor-tance of an aviation department.

“We really want to show our colors here at Mainstreet,” said Eric Wenner, SCSU student

and aviation major. “There is a growing need for airline pilots and people should real-ize that.”

The Central Min-nesota Sexual Assault Center tabled a booth near Stewart Hall. The group was raising awareness about sexual assault in St. Cloud.

Several special interest groups also had booths at Mainstreet to promote their causes.

Minnesotans Unit-ed for All Families was one of these groups with the “Vote No” campaign booth. This November Minneso-

tans will vote to amend the constitution to say that marriage is exclu-sively between a man and a woman. Min-nesotans United for All Families hopes to defeat this amendment with their campaign.

“I would really like to see students plug into the campaign to defeat the amend-ment,” said Kate Brick-man, spokesperson for Minnesotans United for All Families.

Ying Pojanatus is the owner of Seven Elephants Coffee. With her husband’s help they have turned this location into something that St. Cloud will truly appreci-ate.

“My husband is really into interior decorating so we wanted to put his ideas along with our store,” Pojanatus said. “We want to create a warm and inviting atmo-sphere for the community that is different from all the same Starbucks and Cari-bou’s seen everywhere else.”

Stepping inside Seven -TMXPIV\[�Q[�LMÅVQ\MTa�I�different experience. The spacious shop is adorned with elephant paintings, sculptures, etchings, and drawings, to name a few. Other works of art and dé-

cor are scattered throughout the shop, making customers want to come back to get the full visual experience of the efforts the Pojanatus’ have gone through.

The menu itself is as wide and diverse as the inte-rior decorating. They offer breakfast lunch and dinner options, along with a veg-etarian menu featuring items ranging from a vegetarian pizza to freshly made spring rolls and a bakery with newly made goods in the counter.

With a name like Seven Elephants Coffee, people have to wonder where a name such as that origi-nates, seeing as there are no elephants in the central Min-nesota area, let alone seven.

“Elephants have been a cultural symbol in Thailand since the beginning,” said Pojanatus. “They helped build the country and became a sign of royalty, so my husband and I wanted to incorporate that with the number seven, which is a godly number for Thai people.”

Seven Elephants Coffee is an experience where words

can do no justice. It is a not-so-average shop that breaks the mold of the traditional, overdone coffee shop that too many people are forced to endure. Just like an el-ephant, St. Cloud will never forget this new business add-QVO�[WUM�WVM�WN �I�SQVL�ÆI^WZ�to our city.

tank, giving the algae the light they need to thrive. Manure helps by giving the algae nutrients that encourage faster growth.

When the tank reaches full capacity, it is ready for the non-motile, dying specimens in the bottom-half to be collected. They are twice as large as their younger counter-parts, and thus have more fuel that can be extracted from them. In order to extract oil from them, the algae cells are cracked.

More algae can be harvested in as quickly as a week. An algae population can double in as little as 48 hours. This kind of exponential growth is what makes algae power sustainable and renewable.

Zac Ditmarsen, a SCSU student major-ing in Biomedical Sciences, started work with the algae program after befriending a Chemistry classmate who was involved with the project. He began as a volunteer, helping when he could, and eventually was offered a job.

Ditmarsen’s work includes collecting algae samples from the Mississippi River Ja�KIUX][��NZWU�_PQKP�PM�Q[WTI\M[�[XMKQÅK�strains that the program wants to grow. He also helps take care of the algae in the tanks, describing himself as an “algae farmer.”

“It’s great having new experiences, meeting new people, testing new experi-ments,” Ditmarsen says of the job. “The algae [are] pretty cool, too. I like working with cells.”

Empty seats at the u-shape of tables where Student Government mem-bers sit discussing business during their weekly meet-QVO[�[TW_Ta�JMOIV�\W�ÅTT�I[�students made their way from the gallery seats to a seat on the governing body.

Internal elections took place Thursday night and ;\]LMV\�/W^MZVUMV\�ÅTTML�16 open positions.

Student Government elected 10 new senators and ÅTTML�\_W�XW[Q\QWV[�MIKP�WV�the Senate Finance Com-mittee and the Fee Alloca-tion Committee as well as two positions on the Judicial Council.

Each student had three minutes to speak before the senate and explain why they would like to be a part of Student Government. Many of the messages were similar in their theme: help-ing fellow SCSU students.

“I have a passion and general interest in being the voice for fellow students,” 6QKS�6M]UIV��I�ÅZ[\�aMIZ�student and newly-elected senator, said. “I want to stand up for my fellow students.”

Neuman also said he would like to promote activities and get more stu-dents involved to enhance the students experience at SCSU.

Ariana Guerra said she

was interested in becom-ing part of Government because a lot of people she knows are in student orga-nizations and they feel as though they are not being represented well enough by Student Government.

“I believe we can make better people and better citizens,” Mike Powell said, adding he wants students to care more about the place they go to school.

Another issue raised was freshmen feeling homesick. Beau Jacobson said this was something he would like to address while on Student Government.

Max Adamson spoke [XMKQÅKITTa�\W�Q[[]M[�KWV-cerning the budget.

“I don’t know how much money St. Cloud State is getting from the state, but I know there is more money out there,” he said. Adamson also said he would like to get Student Government and SCSU to have more of a voice at the state capitol.

After the newly elected senators took their seats, Jarrod Wiggins, Student Government president, [XWSM�\W�\PM�ÅZ[\�M`MK]\Q^M�order of the year which put in place the task force which will review the three ÅVIVKM�KWUUQ\\MM[�·�;MV-ate Finance Committee, Fee Allocation Committee, and Tech Fee Committee -- associated with Student Government.

The description of

the responsibilities of the task force, as stated in the executive order are: “The scope of this task force will be to review the student fee structure, the student fee budgeting process … Fee Allocation Committee, Senate Finance Committee, and Tech Fee Committee bylaws, aspirational and peer institutions’ method-ologies and identify oppor-tunities for improvement. The committee will submit a report with recommen-dations by December 31, 2012.”

“I want this task force to come out united and for this body to end the year united,” Wiggins said.

Margaret Vos, Atwood Center director, spoke to Student Government about the Atwood renovations.

“We’re hoping to begin this project in spring and we plan to have it done by fall,” Vos said. By the end of September she said there should be a sketch done to show what the renovations will look like.

Much of the reno-vation will be deferred maintenance, she said. There will be some work on the exterior, the art gallery will be moved, and \PM�ZM[\ZWWU[�WV�\PM�ÅZ[\�ÆWWZ��_PQKP��IKKWZLQVO�\W�>W[��IZM�\PM�WZQOQVIT�ÆWWZ[�from the 1960s, will also be renovated.

With the elec-tion around the corner in Novem-ber several political groups sought to reach a large stu-dent audience.

Jim Graves mixed with the crowd for his upcoming run for Congress against Michele Bach-mann.

“I graduated [from SCSU] in 1974 and campus was nothing like this,” Graves said. “This place has re-ally come alive.”

Carol Lewis will be running for city council this November and also took advan-tage to expand her campaign at Mainstreet.

“I’d like to see the students here in an advisory group,” Lewis said. “There

are a lot of issues that need address-ing in St. Cloud.”

Mainstreet is also a place for groups to pull in a few new members. Many booths had free hand-outs and give-aways to any student that signed up for their mailing list.

Another club that had a booth was the new rock climbing club, Women That Rock. The group reserves the rock climbing wall in Halenbeck Hall ev-ery other Thursday for women who

would like to come out and try it.

Some groups featured demon-strations of their organization’s ac-tivities. The SCSU Robotics Club featured a scaled replica of the Mars Curiosity Rover.

The Live Ac-tion Role Playing Society featured several of their “weapons” on display for anyone that might be inter-ested in participat-ing.

KVSC featured a tent with a sound system outside of Stewart and blasted music across the mall.

University Pro-gram Board battled back at their booth in front of Atwood with a performance of “The Electric Slide”.

Minnesotans United for All Families is one of the groups that came to Mainstreet at SCSU on Wednesday.

They are campaigning against the amendment to decide whether marriage should be exclusively be-tween a man and a woman.

Voters will cast their bal-lots in November to make changes to the Constitution of Minnesota.

Warning: losing weight does not solve all of your problems.

As someone with a history of sub-stantial weight loss, I have learned that while losing weight is a wonderful experi-ence and achievement, and while it can produce incredible results, it is not the solution to every problem you have ever faced.

Unfortunately, I thought that it would.Having been overweight most of my

life, it took one guy asking me when my “due date” was when I was 18 (I was most certainly NOT pregnant) to make me realize that it was time for a change.

At the time, I was suffering anxiety and depression and my grades weren’t so great, not to mention the fact that it was Ua�ÅZ[\�aMIZ�WN �KWTTMOM�IVL�NWWL�_I[�I�big comfort.

1�ÅO]ZML�\PI\�QN �1�TW[\�_MQOP\��Ua�problems may still be there, but they didn’t matter because I was “skinny”.

Wrong.I joined Weight Watchers and exer-

cised, and the pounds began to fall off. I was feeling better emotionally and physi-KITTa�IVL�PIL�UWZM�KWVÅLMVKM�

However, I was still struggling in school and had big anxieties about my job at the time. I was slimmer, but unfor-tunately, my problems still did matter.

It took me a long time to realize that while the weight loss changed my life in many ways, it didn’t change everything

that I wanted it to.Eventually I ran out of money for

Weight Watchers. That, coupled with a traumatic experience in my life, caused the weight to climb back on.

I am not advocating that people shouldn’t lose weight. I think it is a won-derful thing, as I am losing as we speak. Weight loss, for those who need it, can ]VKW^MZ�[MKZM\[��\ZIQ\[��IVL�KWVÅLMVKM�that those who are losing never knew existed.

I just don’t want people to create the false illusion that every other unhappiness in their lives will be lost with the pounds.

It is possible to shed personal issues with the pounds, but one cannot rely on weight loss alone to make him happy.

I still can’t afford Weight Watchers, but I am not letting it stop me from losing weight. I found a free program and have been successful so far. This is an example of improving multiple problems at once: I am losing weight and saving money at the same time.

There may be people who would argue me on this, who could insist that a lifestyle change is a complete “life over-haul”, and that one improvement is the ticket to happiness.

But basing my opinion on personal experience alone, I have to speak out.

I am not telling potential weight-losers to abandon all hope, to give up, or pre-paring them for a rude awakening.

In fact, I am telling them to try and improve every aspect of their life while they lose weight. In doing this, they are working twice as hard toward their own happiness.

So get out there, change your life. If you don’t need to lose weight but still have problems in your life, grab hold of them and solve them as best you can.

While weight loss didn’t make me 100 percent happy, it certainly gave me a con-ÅLMVKM�JWW[\�_Q\P�I�[PW\�WN �XMZ[XMK\Q^M�

Let’s face this: there is still much fear and debate over the actual edu-cational value of integrating social media in college classrooms. How do I use Twitter in my ESL classes? How can students utilize Blogosphere to en-hance their reading and writing skills? How can Facebook play a part in my lesson plan to help engage students in the overall learning experience? What about Google+ and LinkedIn? These are some questions that popped in my mind as I was designing my college introductory writing course syllabus back in the summer.

To many of us teaching folks out there, we know very well that our students are ahead of us in using these technologies. “The Internet is where the kids are, schools have to go there,” said Fintan O’Mahony, a teacher of English in Ireland. According to Stine Thorhauge of Mind Jumpers, social networking is the most popular and time-consuming online activity. Users [XMVL�UWZM�\PIV�WVM�ÅN\P�WN �\PMQZ�time engaging on social media chan-nels.

When you average the age dis-tribution across all the most popular social sites, research shows that 16 percent of users are 18-24 years old (pingdom.com). Those are our students right there. That said, Steven Anderson of Edutopia is right on by referring social media to “fast becoming as ubiquitous as the air we breathe.” By integrating social media into the classroom community,

students may become more engaged with the course materials by virtually connecting with the teacher.

Yet, simply thinking about setting ]X�I�VM_�XZWÅTM�NWZ�\PM�KTI[[�Q[�ITZMILa�nerve-racking. Fortunately, resources are available all around the web. Many teachers and professionals have compiled their experience and shared ideas with those who are interested to bring social media into their class-room. Here are some steps to set out this journey.

Examine cultureIt is smart to examine the school

culture on the prevailing beliefs about social media in the community before deciding on using social media for the course. Share ideas and ques-tions for educational leaders (i.e. the department chair, college dean and even the provost) considering social media for the classrooms. Produced in collaboration with Facebook, Steven Anderson’s guidelines for schools that are looking into creating social media policies suggest that there is “no silver bullet for administrators; every school, district, and state has a different set of circumstance.” From my obser-vations, SCSU has a pretty open mindset about using social media to KWVVMK\�_Q\P�[\]LMV\[��5IVa�WNÅKM[�and departments, such as the Center for International Studies, Graduate ;KPWWT�7NÅKM��=<>;��[\]LMV\�Z]V�<>�[\I\QWV��IVL�\PM�KIUX][�TQJZIZa��have created an eminent web presence by joining Facebook and LinkedIn, posting university-related entries on a regular basis.

8]\�[INM\a�ÅZ[\You and I know that privacy is a

great concern with using social media for academic purposes. Many teachers are afraid to use Facebook or Twitter in their classes as those channels are made available to the public. Whatev-er one posts on these sites are going to be viewable by the rest of the world.

Not only would a silly spelling mistake discredit the professor, whatever his or her students post for the class may also need screening prior to publishing in order to avoid postings of inap-propriate content. An excellent way to handle this matter is to establish a ÅZU�XWTQKa�WV�[WKQIT�UMLQI�][IOM�NWZ�[XMKQÅK�KW]Z[M�X]ZXW[M[��.WZ�QV[\IVKM��I give a handout to my students ex-plaining what I would do and telling them anything the students generate would be accessible by the public. It will also be good to inform their par-ents that the students will be reading and writing on the web.

Go beyond just a presenceHere is where many organizations

or classes fail in incorporating social media in their work. Having an ac-KW]V\�WZ�XZWÅTM�WV�\PM[M�[Q\M[�LWM[V¼\�guarantee a big-time success in com-municating with your prospects. This is why Suja Ramnarayan of SMStrat said that social media is not free: they may be free to enter, “but associated costs and problems become appar-ent later.” The return-on-investment (ROI) with social media is hard to measure. If used in a course, the instructor and students are responsible to regularly update and maintain the content of the site in order to achieve optimal results.

Overall, I am all up for the integration of social media into the classrooms. While many amateur instructors like myself would like to jump right into setting up these sites for our classes, an orientation on such usage may be suitable to guide us through the do’s and don’ts, as well as the pros and cons. Keeping in mind, like O’Mahony said, the kids are over “there,” we need to get there to reach them as soon as possible.

Quote of the Week

If you want to change the world, pick up your pen and write.

Martin Luther

Imagine building a sand castle.Not just any sand castle, either. This

is the greatest sand castle you have ever built. It looks exactly the way you pictured it. Tall pillars that look down upon the turtle-people. A giant moat as deep as the Congo River surrounds and protects your castle from the crab-people menace. Past the moat lies the outer [PMTT��aW]Z�_ITT��_PQKP�PI[�JMMV�NWZ\QÅML�with stones from the sea. The courtyard Q[�ÅTTML�_Q\P�PIXXa�TI]OPQVO�\]Z\TM[�\PI\�have found peace within the walls. On the tallest tower sits a shell with clock hands drawn on it so the turtles know what time it is.

Then a bully comes a long and crush-es it. Your walls are no match for the explosive power of their foot crashing down upon the improvised timepiece.

Now you know what it feels like to be attacked by a Creeper.

For those who don’t know, Creepers are a type of monster that exists in the game “Minecraft”. In “Minecraft” you explore an unlimited network of cave systems and mountain ranges to search for coal, gold and diamond. Another large part of the game is building, which people have taken advantage of to create colossal structures.

These Creepers skulk around caves and mountains waiting to pounce. They disgust me.

The explosion not only takes them out, but destroys everything within a certain radius. Often times the only warning they produce is a “hiss” fol-lowed shortly by a ear-ringing explosion that has destroyed your dreams.

The Creeper menace must be stopped. They infect our mines, our mountains and most importantly our homes. No more will the door to my house be a gaping hole. We must rally IOIQV[\�\PQ[�¹KWLQVO�MZZWZº�IVL�ÅOP\�\PM�menace so we may build our civilization.

Unless you’re on survival mode. Why are you even trying to build a castle on survival mode?

If a tree falls in the forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound? The answer is no if we are talking about this neutered, one year old Shepherd Mix named Timber! Timber rarely barks but makes up for his silence with lots of energy and playful enthusiasm. In his previous home, Timber enjoyed being around cats and did well with other dogs and children. He would appreciate an indoor home with plenty of access to a fetch-friendly yard. Timber will need some coach-ing regarding his desire to jump up and get close to you. With cotton-soft fur, a quiet demeanor and an

athletic heart, Timber is hard not to fall for.

This weekend, on a calm and warm Saturday, hundreds of people and pets gathered in Wilson Park for the 24th an-nual Humane Society sponsored Companion Walk, also known as Woofstock. “It’s about celebrating the human and animal bond, and it’s gotten bigger every year,” said Vicki Davis, an organizer for the event.

The 5k walk began at 10 a.m., stretching along the riverside as people and their respective pets were ac-companied by the Ben-ton County Mounted Patrol. Once the hour long walk ended, participants were wel-comed back with lunch that was based on free will donations. Wilson 8IZS�_I[�ÅTTML�_Q\P�twenty exhibit booths handing out freebies. Petsmart and multiple animal hospitals were among some of those participating. Children ÆWKSML�\W�\PM�;KWWJa�,WW�QVÆI\IJTM�JW]VKa�slide. There were demos of the Twin Cit-ies Disc Dog Club and children participated in a dog bite prevention

workshop. There was also a hot dog eating contest and a silent auction.

“We didn’t allow people to gorge them-selves for the hot dog eating contest,” said Marit Ortega, a vol-unteer. “We gave the XMZ[WV�Å^M�PW\�LWO[�and the dog two and a half. We then saw who ÅVQ[PML�\PMU�ÅZ[\�º

“It ended up coming down to two contestants,” said Kari Boehmer, the volunteer who ran the hot dog eating contest. “One PIL�I�LWO�_PW�ÅVQ[PML�ÅZ[\�IVL�\PM�W\PMZ�PIL�\PM�W_VMZ�_PW�ÅVQ[PML�ÅZ[\�IVL�\PMa�_MZM�R][\�waiting for the other to ÅVQ[P��?M�LQLV¼\�\QUM�it, but next year we’ll have to make sure we do.”

At last year’s event there were about 400 people and 250 pets. Ortega thinks this year \PMZM�_MZM�LMÅVQ\MTa�more. Although the majority of the pets at this year’s Woofstock were dogs, the event emphasized the fact that it is a “Compan-ion Walk” not purely a “Dog Walk.”

“There was a python and a goat,” Ortega said. “Some-times we see people walking around with

strollers that have cats in them, but I didn’t notice any of those this year.”

At 1:15 p.m., the grand total of pledges was announced. “Last year our grand total was $44,500,” said Ortega. “That includes pledges and all the do-nations we get on the day of the event. This year our pledges alone were $44,800. That was the most exciting part of the day for me because we have to in-dependently raise our funds, and seeing that was very exciting.”

“It was just so nice to see it come together so well,” said Ortega. “It took 80 volunteers to make the event work, and it was great seeing people build friendships. I enjoyed visiting with all the people that have such a great commonality between them being their love for animals. I’m exhausted, but it was all well worth it. It was fun.”

Woofstock is the Humane Society’s biggest fundraiser, although they do have a wine and beer tast-ing fundraiser in the Spring. For more in-formation visit http://www.tricountyhumane-society.org/.

To most anyone, it would look like only a small collec-tion of saplings in a patch of meadow just on the limits of St. John’s University. But to Pat Dougherty, this is art-work in the making. “We’re planning on constructing Å^M�TQ\\TM�KPIXMT[��AW]�KW]TL�call them ‘chapelettes,’” he said. Dougherty specializes in stickwork, an art form that deals with harvesting saplings and using them to create small architectures that look like they came from ‘Where The Wild Things Are.’

“The chapel on campus was a bit of an inspira-tion,” said Dougherty. “The little chapels are going to be grouped like pine cones. People think that you just throw them up, but there is some detail that goes into it as well.” St. John’s Univer-sity got ahold of Dougherty after seeing his work at the Minnesota Landscape Arbo-retum in Minneapolis.

“I’m from Chapel Hill, North Carolina, but I travel a lot. I travel to Wisconsin a good amount. I work every month somewhere: here, Australia, Hawaii, Florida, France, and I’m going to be heading down to Fresno to do a residency at Fresno State,” said Dougherty.

But how exactly does someone get into molding saplings?

“I guess it started like

most things do. I started on something and made up a rationale to why I do it. There’s so many places to take inspiration from. Child-hood play, for example. Everyone plays with sticks when they’re kids. Then you look at birds nests, and see the way they’re able to change simple sticks into structures.”

Dougherty’s work is enough to strike awe into IVaWVM�_PW�[MM[�\PM�ÅVQ[PML�product, and luckily for him there is a good amount of demand for the work he provides.

“People start to get cramped when they hear about things like climate change. Seeing this type of structure give people the chance to reconnect with nature in a time when we’re very concerned with na-ture,” said Dougherty. “It’s a case of me doing what I love and being able to cater to the right audience.”

Dougherty arrived at St. John’s University last Sun-day and will stay until Sept. 21 to complete his three-week project. There will be a presentation in Escher Auditorium at St. John’s University where Dough-erty will give a lecture, talk about his work, and show slides and images of past sculptures. The presentation will take place on Thursday, Sept. 13 at 8 p.m. For more information on Dougherty’s work visit www.stickwork.net.

Morhardt takes each game as serious as the next.“Any team can beat any other team on any given day,”

that diligence and hard work will be a reward in itself.Just like any other team, season goals are being set.“A goal for the squad this year is to make it to the NCAA

tournament, which means we will have to win the confer-ence tournament,” Morhardt said.

As SCSU soccer continues their season, Morhardt hopes to make her last year memorable.

“I would like the team to have a winning record, but records don’t matter much as long as we can make history,” Morhardt said.

SCSU Track and Field are off to races:aIV�.Q\bOMZITL

ASST. SPORTS EDITOR

The cross-country team has a fresh face at the helm and Eric Hanenberg-er seems to be the spark that the men and women’s team needed to get back on track.

Hanenberger was hired by Heather Weems on Aug. 15 and wants nothing less than for his teams to be better in life. “My learning curve has been sharp and the kids have been supportive,” Hanenberger said. “I have an amazing staff behind me, especially Travis Hoover, who the kids seem to really respond to.”

The cross-country team had its ÅZ[\�UMM\�WN �\PM�[MI[WV�WV�;I\]ZLIa�at St. John’s and the men had a better showing than the women.

5MV¼[�\MIUSenior Jared Hicks placed third

while redshirt freshman Mahdi Koliso placed second. “Yeah we did pretty good as a team,” Hicks said. “I’d say _M�PIL�I�XZM\\a�OWWL�ÅZ[\�UMM\�º

The men’s team placed second overall in its opening meet of the season and Hanenberger could not be happier. “I want a good relation-ship with Coach Miles (SJU Coach) because he runs a tight program, and \PM�KW]Z[M�Q[�Y]Q\M�LQNÅK]T\�W^MZ�\PMZM�º�Hanenberger said.

The men’s team isn’t as deep as it was in past years, but with four run-

ners who run a good pace it makes it easier for them to feed off each other, according to Hicks.

The Achilles heel for the men’s team is the lack of depth they have. “We don’t have any backups and in order to place at conference we need Å^M�XMWXTM�\W�Z]V�\WOM\PMZ�º�0QKS[�stated. “It’s a long season and we hope we can all stay healthy.”

The men’s team has a brighter outlook than the women’s team this seasons based largely on the attitude of the team. “I do what I can to make sure to make sure everyone stays healthy and positive,” Hicks said.

The men run 8K while the women run 6K, so they need to make sure they eat right. “We are going to see _PMZM�_M�IZM�Å\VM[[�_Q[M�QV�I�KW]XTM�weeks when the season starts rolling along,” Hanenberger said.

?WUMV¼[�\MIUAs for the women’s team they had

“I have great coaches and with the right attitude I see the team, and myself, having a great season,” Vaness said.

At SJU the women’s team didn’t have a strong showing, but the spirit of the team couldn’t be better. “We did poorly at the meet, but we are not going to give up,” Vaness said. “It’s going to take time for Eric to acclimat-

ed with the athletes, but the passion he has for the sport is amazing.”

The women are determined to get better and do what they can to improve the program overall, even though they have a small roster, much like the men, according to Vaness.

Exactly like the men’s team, the women’s team can’t afford to have any injuries if they want to compete in the conference tournament.

“Our weakness is our numbers and we just have to make sure that we eat right and try to stay healthy,” Vaness said. “Sometimes sickness is a bigger problem than injuries that occur on the track.”

SCSU doesn’t have a home course to compete at and always has to travel to compete in meets.

“I’m working on creating and establishing relationships with people in St. Cloud to get a course in St. Cloud,” Hanenberger said. “I’d like to have a meet here in the near future to promote our team and celebrate with all the alum.”

Getting the community involved is a part of what Hanenberger wants to do, and getting SCSU more acclimat-ed with cross country is what he wants \W�M[\IJTQ[P�QV�PQ[�ÅZ[\�[MI[WV�I[�KWIKP��according to Hanenberger.

“It’s our job as a coaching staff to promote this sport, and the sports department has been very kind to us,” Hanenberger stated.

WEEK OF SEPT. 10 - SEPT. 16

Matt Neilsen

BEAT REPORTER

Although week one is already in the books, there is still plenty of time to join a fantasy football league, or even start one of your own.

It’s hard to watch any NFL game without having some-one in the room mention a player that is on their fantasy team.

With bragging rights on the line in every league, let’s go \PZW]OP�\PM�\WX�Å^M�XTIaMZ[�QV�MIKP�WNNMV[Q^M�KI\MOWZa�

Quarterback: 1. Aaron Rodgers- Rodgers is easily the number one quarterback in any fantasy league this year. He led the NFL in fantasy points last year and played in only 15 games. Along with his 45 touchdown passes, Rodg-ers also ran for three. He has the potential to be one of the best, if not the best fantasy player for years to come.

2. Tom Brady- Brady might be the best overall quarter-back in the NFL, but from a fantasy perspective, he comes in at number two. He probably has the best receiving core in the league with Wes Welker, Aaron Hernandez, Brandon Lloyd, and Rob Gronkowski. However, Brady’s mobility doesn’t even compare to Rodgers’, which gives Rodgers a bit more of an edge over Brady.

3. Drew Brees- Brees has been one of the most con-[Q[\MV\�NIV\I[a�Y]IZ\MZJIKS[�W^MZ�\PM�XI[\�Å^M�aMIZ[��?Q\P�one of the strongest receiving corps in the league, expect another strong fantasy performance from Brees this season.

4. Matthew Stafford- Stafford is one of the best young quarterbacks in the league right now. With over 5,000 yards passing and 41 touchdowns in his third year, Stafford has the potential to be one of the best fantasy players out there. As long as he can stay healthy, expect another strong perfor-mance from Stafford.

5. Peyton Manning- This was a tough choice as there are many quarterbacks who could be considered in this posi-tion. Although Manning didn’t even play last year, it is hard to argue that a four-time MVP is still not one of the best fantasy quarterbacks in the league. He may not have the best weapons in the league, but if there is one man who can make an average Joe look like an all-star, Manning is it.

Running Back: 1. Arian Foster- Although Foster WVTa�XTIaML�QV��OIUM[�TI[\�[MI[WV��PM�_I[�[\QTT�I�\WX�Å^M�fantasy running back. The Texans have a fairly easy division and co-led the league in rush attempts last season. As long as Foster can stay healthy, he has the potential to put up ter-ZQÅK�NIV\I[a�V]UJMZ[�

2. Ray Rice- Rice is one of the most consistent run-ners in the league. Although he plays in a tough defensive division in the AFC North, the fact that Rice puts up great receiving numbers as well gives him an edge.

3. LeSean McCoy- McCoy had multiple touchdown games six times last season, which is something fantasy owners dream about. It will be tough to repeat last season’s touchdown total, but look for McCoy to put up at least 16 touchdowns throughout the year.

4. Maurice Jones-Drew- The thing that makes MoJo

so dangerous is the fact that everyone knows he carries the Jaguars and teams still can’t stop him. He failed to rush for 80 yards once last season and has been one of the most consistent running backs over the past few years.

��;\M^MV�2IKS[WV��)T\PW]OP�2IKS[WV�WVTa�PIL�Å^M�\W]KP-downs last season, he was a workhorse, as he carried for almost 1,200 yards. Expect him to have even more produc-tion this season as the Rams have made strides on offense to help open up the holes for Jackson.

Wide Receivers: 1. Calvin Johnson- As long as the Madden curse stays away from Detroit, expect Megatron to be the number one fantasy receiver in the league once again this year.

2. Larry Fitzgerald- The only downfall about Fitzgerald is the quarterback situation in Arizona. Even with poor quarterback play Fitzgerald has always been consistent, and he can be expected to surpass 1,000 yards receiving once again this year.

3. Andre Johnson- Injuries have plagued Johnson over the past two seasons as he has missed 12 games in that span. )[�TWVO�I[�PM�KIV�[\Ia�PMIT\Pa��2WPV[WV�_QTT�JM�I�\WX�Å^M�fantasy receiver this year.

4. Wes Welker- If you are in a point per reception league, Welker would actually be number one. Even without \PM�XWQV\�XMZ�ZMKMX\QWV��?MTSMZ�Q[�[\QTT�I�\WX�Å^M�ZMKMQ^MZ�I[�*ZILa�ÅVL[�PQU�V]UMZW][�\QUM[�\PZW]OPW]\�\PM�KW]Z[M�WN �I�game.

5. Brandon Marshall- Marshall is reuniting with former teammate Jay Cutler. Last time these two played together they both had the best seasons of their careers. Expect the same from both this season in Chicago.

Tight Ends: 1. Rob Gronkowski- With 17 touch-downs in only his second season, it looks like there is no slowing down for the Gronk. Expect Gronkowski to light Q\�]X�WVKM�IOIQV�NWZ�\PM�8I\ZQW\[�\PQ[�aMIZ��)�TI\M�ÅZ[\�ZW]VL�or early second round pick is not out of the question for Gronkowski.

2. Jimmy Graham- Graham and Gronkowski are easily number one and two in the league. You can’t go wrong with either one, as these two are in a league of their own.

3. Aaron Hernandez- It’s hard to believe that one team would have two of the best tight ends in the league, but if Hernandez wouldn’t have missed two games last year, he would have had over 1,000 yards receiving. Gronkowski and Graham are way ahead, but Hernandez is a solid number three choice.

4. Antonio Gates- Gates used to be an easy number one choice at the tight end position; however, his best days are behind him. Gates still has a lot of talent and should be more productive than most tight ends in the league.

5. Vernon Davis- The downfall about Davis is that he is in a running system. With newly acquired receivers Randy Moss and Mario Manningham, look for room to open up for Davis.

This season will be a great one, and all of these players are bound to put on a show.

Vikings rookie kicker has big debut

Sean Davich

STAFF WRITER

By no means was this a pretty game for either team.

But a win is a win, and that’s what matters to Vi-kings fans.

Blair Walsh hit a 55-aIZL�ÅMTL�OWIT�I\�\PM�MVL�of regulation, then nailed a 38-yarder in overtime to give the Minnesota Vikings a 26-23 victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars for its ÅZ[\�[MI[WV�WXMVQVO�^QK\WZa�since 2009 at Cleveland.

Christian Ponder com-pleted 20 of 27 passes for 270 yards for the Vikings, who opened a season at PWUM�NWZ�\PM�ÅZ[\�\QUM�[QVKM�a 24-3 win over Atlanta in ��)LZQIV�8M\MZ[WV¼[�ÅZ[\�game.

Peterson rushed 17 times for 84 yards and two touchdowns for the Vi-kings. AP had been making headlines all week because of his knee. Just two regular season games ago, Peterson tore two ligaments in his knee last year in a victory at Washington. But he re-habbed hard in the offsea-son and was a game-time decision coming in. By no surprise, he ended up get-ting the start, which helped

the Vikings notch a season-opening win.

Percy Harvin led the Vikings with six catches for 84 yards.

Blaine Gabbert com-pleted 23 of 39 passes for 260 yards and a pair of scores for Jacksonville, who had taken a 23-20 lead with 20 seconds left thanks to a dramatic 39-yard touch-down pass to Cecil Shorts III, who had four catches for 74 yards on the day to lead the team.

But the lead wouldn’t hold up.

In just three plays, Pon-der completed three long passes to get the ball to the Jaguar 38-yard-line, where big-legged rookie kicker Blair Walsh, kicked a clutch ��aIZL�ÅMTL�OWIT�I[�\QUM�M`-pired to force overtime.

After Walsh’s 38-yarder in overtime and a defensive stop moments later, the Vi-kings found themselves with \PMQZ�ÅZ[\�_QVVQVO�ZMKWZL�QV�three years.

And with a trip to India-napolis next week, Minne-[W\I�KW]TL�ÅVL�\PMU[MT^M[�2-0.
