EagleMail is getting a new nest.
On Jan. 3, FGCU will undergo a
conversion to Live@EDU, Microsofts
hosted email solution. The change
will lead to new features and extra
storage, but students will be required
to reactivate their account after the
conversion.
Because of the MS Domain,
the available tools, and the SGAs
choice to purchase the campus-wide
agreement, the move to Live@EDU
was the most logical choice. We did
look at all of the hosted solutions and
compared features, benets, and
implementation issues and costs, said
Charlie Weaver, director of network
services.
Although the change may feel
sudden to some students, the system
conversion began almost two years
ago with a technology survey that
started the process of determining
what features students are most
interested in.
After the survey results were
reported, we went to the SGA and
asked them for further input and
clarication, Weaver said. We are
making this change to benet students
and move the current student email
into a modern robust system with
many more features than they have
had in the past, for no additional costs,
and without asking for money from
the SGA or raising fees to support this
system.
One of the new features offered by
Live@EDU is a calendar that students
can share with friends, groups and
family. The university will also be able
to create a calendar to which students
can subscribe with all of the academic
dates on it.
Any entity or group on campus
can create and maintain a calendar
that students can decide to subscribe
to or not, Weaver said. Students will
be able to send appointments to other
students or to anyone using a system
that supports the standard method of
calendar appointments. Students will
be able to arrange group meetings or
club meetings very quickly using the
calendaring features.

It was an announcement that
has been ve years in the making.
The FGCU mens soccer team,
fresh off a dramatic win in their
rst Atlantic Sun Tournament,
turned their attention to the NCAA
selection committee Monday. The
Eagles (12-5-2) intently watched,
via live broadcast, as they drew
Central Florida (11-5-3) in a highly
anticipated rematch.
The rst NCAA tournament
game in the programs young
history is scheduled to take place
in Orlando on Thursday.
With the A-Sun tournament
victory, won on a goal scored by
senior Scott Harrison in the 89
th
minute, the Eagles earned an
automatic berth into the NCAAs
48-team eld.
UCF will be a familiar opponent
for Bob Butehorns squad. FGCU
already holds a victory over the
Golden Knights this season,
defeating the then No. 8 team in
the country 2-1 in September.
The mood of the Eagles is tense
in the wake of the announcement.
The business-like manner in which
Butehorn conducts himself is
heightened right now, as he must
be feeling the intensity of the
moment. Not nervous, but focused,
the A-Sun Coach of the Year is
staying on message.
I dont think nerves have been
a problem all year. I dont think
there is any real emotion right
now, Butehorn said. After we
won (A-Sun) it is gone. Its all done.
It is a new season. We will see what
comes (in the NCAA tournament)
and take it day by day.

Finals week checklist: textbooks, Red Bull,
Adderall ... Adderall?
Many college students across the nation
are including the commonly prescribed
medication for attention decit hyperactivity
disorder, also known as ADHD, on their list
of items to stock up on for the dreaded nals
week.
The combination of dextroamphetamine
and amphetamine helps children and adults
suffering from ADHD stay focused.
Adderall and amphetamines like that are
designed to replace certain neurotransmitters
or to help them work better so that a person
can reduce their anxiety enough to actually be
able to focus and study, said Rosalyn Gross,
an assistant professor in the school of nursing.
However, according to the 2008 National
Survey on Drug Use and Health, 6.4 percent
of students used the drug for non-medical
purposes. Since Adderall accomplishes
the goal of being an effective study aid, it is
growing more popular with students on college
campuses across the country.
I dont have a specic person I can go
to, but if I really wanted it and went through
certain people, Id probably be able to nd
it, said Alycia Silber, a junior majoring in
communication.
Adderall comes in two different forms,
extended (XR) and immediate release. XR
releases the active ingredient over an extended
period of time (usually eight hours) so it lasts
the length of school for children.
Immediate release, the more popular form
for non-medical use, delivers the dosages
instantly, making the effects happen sooner.
People generally take the pill by swallowing
it, although snorting is another popular
method with people who use it for recreational
purposes.
Apart from being addictive, Adderall has
many side effects, including difculty falling
asleep, nervousness, uncontrollable shaking
and headaches. In extreme cases, it can also
cause sudden death for those with heart
conditions.
Possibly due to the growing abuse of
Adderall, it has become increasingly difcult
for people to get prescriptions of immediate
release Adderall lled.

FacuIty, staff get Z percent raise
EagIe News staff
Following a brief discussion,
the FGCU board of trustees
unanimously approved a raise for
faculty and staff at the board of
trustees meeting Tuesday.
The 2 percent increase from last
years salaries will be effective on
Jan. 1 for FGCU faculty and staff.
Provost Ron Toll said that
FGCU officials did not consider
the university financially capable
of offering the raise at the close
of bargaining, but additional
information, such as enrollment
figures, altered this opinion.
Based on additional information
that came to us, including fall
enrollment which we really dont
know until students get here
the administration determined we
would be able to reward our faculty
by providing this raise, Toll said.

At the end of the month, the
Programming Board will be hosting The
Great Porn Debate, featuring porn star
Ron Jeremy and pastor Craig Gross.
The debate will take place at 8 p.m.
Tuesday, Nov. 29 in the Student Union
Ballroom.
The Programming Board advises that
the event is for mature audience members
only. The event is open to students, faculty
and staff. A valid Eagle ID card is required
for entry, and seats are limited.
Jeremy has appeared in more than
2,000 pornographic films. The 58-year-
old entertainer earned a masters degree
in special education before becoming a
special education teacher at a high school
in New York City.
Jeremys girlfriend submitted a
photo of him to Playgirl, and the strong
feedback captured the attention of adult
filmmakers.
He then began his continuing career
in the adult film industry, and he is now
listed in the Guinness Book of World
Records for Most Appearances in Adult
Films. Jeremy has also has appeared
in mainstream movies such as The
Boondock Saints and Reindeer Games.
G r o s s .
m e a n w h i l e ,
noticed a recurring
issue during his
work as a pastor
in Southern
California
an addiction to
pornography. This
inspired him to
create XXXchurch.
com, a nonprofit
website that
aims to help those
struggling with
pornography addiction. The organization
claims to be the No. 1 Christian porn site
designed to bring awareness, openness
and accountability to those affected by
pornography.
Gross, also a published author, has
been featured in Newsweek, CNN and The
New York Times and on Good Morning
America. He regularly engages in debates
with Jeremy on college campuses around
the country concerning the pornography
industry, a program the two have been
doing since 2006.
Shyim Robinson, the Programming
Boards director of lectures, said, While
this event will provide entertainment,
it also presents the opportunity for
our students to gain more insight and
education on issues that may affect our
diverse student population.
Cnnmoney.com reports that the
pornography industry generates more
than $12 billion in annual revenue in the
United States and $57 billion worldwide.
Additionally, USA Today reports that
college students, male and female, are a
great deal more accepting of pornography
than the previous generation, likely due
to the increasing accessibility of free
pornography on the Internet.
The debate will examine questions
relating to the pornography industry,
such as, Is the pornography industry
degrading to women, or empowering? and
Is it an addictive and destructive habit, or
a window to a fun fantasy world?
The purpose of the Programming
Board is to provide educational and
social entertainment to the student body
through diversified programs, promote
school spirit and student involvement,
and empower the student body in their
efforts to make the most of their college
experience.
Students have the opportunity to
submit questions that they would like
asked during the debate by emailing
Robinson at PBLecturesDirector@gmail.
com.
While the opinions regarding
pornography itself may be diverse, many
students believe that the decision of the
Programming Board to host the debate is
a good one.
I would definitely go. That sounds
like a very interesting conversation that
I would like to see, said Gabriela Diaz, a
senior majoring in communication.
Carly Binge, a junior majoring in
communication, said that she would also
like to attend the event.
I am sure the conversation will get
very heated. Its an intriguing topic, she
said.

Students at Florida Gulf

in todays economic climate,
a degree is not enough, but
where the degree is from
and what reputation that
university holds can be just as
important.
Florida is known for having
powerhouse universities:
University of Florida and
University of Central Florida
hail as two of the biggest
schools per enrollment in the
nation.
Florida State University
and University of Miami are
also recognized nationally for
their excellence.
Five-year president of
FGCU Wilson Bradshaw
understands students
concerns about where the
young university stands
compared to other Florida
universities.
Since Bradshaw took over
in 2007, FGCU has expanded
30 percent and is continuing
to grow. Bradshaw expects the
university enrollment to reach
20,000 in the next five years;
FGCU currently has more
than 11,000 enrolled.
Bradshaw urges students
to look forward and be proud
of what has been happening in
the 15 years thus far.
Not many institutions
have been in existence for 15
years and have accomplished
what we have, Bradshaw
said.
Still, Bradshaw is aware of
where FGCU ranks amongst
fellow Florida institutions, but
trailing behind does not seem
to bother him.
U.S. News Best College
rankings system places FGCU
75th in the South Regional
Universities, behind other
Florida schools in the division:
Rollins College (ranked No.1),
University of Tampa (23),
Jacksonville University (46),
University of North Florida
(48) and Palm Beach Atlantic
University (51).
Rankings are rankings;
they are flawed in many
ways, Bradshaw said. (In 50
years) in Florida, I think well
be No.1.
Tiffany Tiliacos, a
sophomore majoring in
nursing, expressed concern
about the reputation of FGCU.
I think that sometimes
a degree from University of
Florida or one of the bigger
brand-name schools may help
to open more doors for my
career, Tiliacos said.
Like most students,
Tiliacos finds much to love
about FGCU: the smaller class
sizes, the accessibility and the
commitment to sustainability.
She hopes these aspects
translate into a positive
reputation.
I love it here, but I hope
that we continue to build up
our name to make us more
attractive and known across
the country, Tiliacos said.
Despite the rankings and
student concerns, Bradshaw
stands by his ardent message.
We remain very
committed, in my opinion,
to the highest quality
undergraduate experience
that students can have
anywhere, he said.
Bradshaw encourages
students to be proud of what
FGCU has accomplished and
look forward to what it will
accomplish.
I think 50 years from
now, people will know FGCU
because we will have a
medical school. We will have
a highly successful Division
I program, and people will
know us for that. We need to
be kind to ourselves. Were 15
years old, and we will make
our reputation as we go, he
said.
English literature professor
Rebecca Totaro said that she
is sometimes skeptical about
the brand name of FGCU.
She admits that working
through her department and
getting students into graduate
programs has been showing
more promise.
The power base for
universities is shifting its
more clear that you can have
a top-notch education at any
number of places and be well-
connected, Totaro said.
Totaro understands the
concern of students, and
explains that professors
have the same concerns.
Totaro has published three
books, including Suffering in
Paradise and The Plague In
Print, both scholarly works
on the subject of the bubonic
plague in literature.
As a professor who is
publishing a lot, its important
to me that when they see
my name associating with
a university that they dont
discount me, Totaro said.
FGCU is still a budding
university with a maturing
reputation. Graduating
students are at the front
lines for building the schools
notoriety when entering
the workforce and graduate
programs across the country.
I think its looking really
good, and Im a skeptic,
Totaro said.

With the current EagleMail server,
students only have 100MB of storage.
The new system will provide 10GB of
storage, which is 100 times more than
students currently have access to. They
will also have access to an additional
25MB of storage that is accessible from
any computer through a web browser.
The Sky Drive is like a portable
thumb drive or flash drive that the
students cant lose. You will be able to
share out a folder in your Sky Drive to
your friends or family so that you can
share files, Weaver said.
Additional features include improved
spam filtering and full mobile device
support. Students with smart phones
will have constant access to their
student email and will receive their
emails on their phones almost instantly
if their phones are set up properly
following the conversion.
On Jan. 3, around 9 a.m., students
will be able to go to http://eagle.fgcu.
edu and re-activate their accounts. They
will be required to enter their UID, PIN,
and a new password into the web page.
Students will then be able to log into the
new system.
We will have moved the existing
email from the current system to
the new EagleMail system and all of
their mail should be available when
they log in, Weaver said. When they
log into the new system, they will be
greeted with a welcome message. The
welcome message will have the students
contacts from the old system as well as
instructions on importing the contacts
into the new EagleMail system.
Weaver says that the university was
unable to directly import contacts from
the old system into the new EagleMail
because of formatting issues, but the
only thing that cannot be exported for
students will be the calendar in the old
system.
The process will be more complicated
for alumni who still use their EagleMail
account. Alumni that utilize EagleMail
and do not have their UIN or PIN will
need to contact the Registrars Office
to get their UID and PIN in order to be
able to re-activate their email account.
We will be contacting FGCU alumni and
letting them know that they need to do
this before Jan. 3, Weaver said.
Weaver emphasized that students
email addresses will not change.
However, he stressed that students
should be aware that they will not be
able to use their email, log into Angel,
register their computer in housing, or
log onto a computer on campus until
they re-activate their account.
We chose Jan. 3, 2012, very
carefully so that it would cause the least
impact on students, so that the Help
Desk would be fully staffed, and so that
Network Services would be available in
case any student had an issue or needed
to have a question answered, he said.

After a 100-pound black bear was
spotted roaming around FGCUs campus
Monday night, officials have decided to
call off the search.
It left university property and
went over to the golf course, said UPD
dispatcher Rich Anderson.
Although the search was called off,
the campus may encounter another
visit from the typical Florida black bear,
considering this is not the first time the
bear has been observed near the school.
The bear was reported as a tagged
bear, which means it has already been
trapped once and relocated.
As of Tuesday afternoon, Anderson
said there are no new updates on the
sighting of the bear, but officials say as
long as the bear is not causing harm to
anyone, there is no need for the search to
continue. The Florida Fish and Wildlife
Conservation Commission website
offers several tips for anyone who may
encounter a black bear.
Check out NBC-2.com to see a video
of the bear crossing Ben Hill Griffin
Parkway.

As far as I know, there is a back
order. All we keep hearing is that the
manufacturer doesnt have it, said a
Publix caller servicing at the Estero
pharmacy location.
Adderall is listed on the Food and Drug
Administrations list of drug shortages.
According to the FDA, active
pharmaceutical ingredient supply issues
and uneven product distribution patterns
are the reason behind the shortage.
The Publix pharmacy said that several
people come in or call every day asking if
they have Adderall in stock.
I know its a problem; I know its
abused. I know students who have
prescription for ADHD and ADD sell their
Adderall, Gross said. Some try to get
more than one prescription from more
than one provider.
Due to the shortage, some students
are forced to try to get the drug from
somewhere other than a pharmacy. Many
people try to use the lack of Adderall to
their advantage and make a quick profit
by selling their own prescriptions to their
peers that need it for medical reasons or
simply for recreational purposes.
Ive heard most people try to sell it for
like five dollars a tablet. It depends on if
it is a random person trying to pick some
up or if its a friend trying to get it through
another person, Silber said.
There are several medical alternatives
to Adderall, such as Concerta, Ritalin and
Vyvanse. Vyvanse is becoming the leading
ADHD medication. However, Gross said
that doctors will often have their patients
try Ritalin or other generic brands first
due to the cost. Insurance companies will
often not cover Vyvanse.
Despite the list of similar medications,
Adderall seems to be the drug of choice for
non-medical use.
Im sure people have tried other ones
and used Adderall as the common name
thinking thats what it was, but Ive never
heard of a specific other drug being used
in its place, Silber said.
Although there is no denying the
effectiveness of Adderalls ability to keep
students up to help them cram studying in
for tests, there is no telling how well they
will do.
I dont know how much it does for
memory retention, or whether these
students are necessarily able to get as
good of a grade as if they hadnt been
[using Adderall], Gross said.

As students walk down the halls of
FGCU, they are often too preoccupied with
their own individual lives to take notice of
other students. However, the walls of FGCU
encase some of the brightest young minds
from around the world.
Each year, FGCU participates in a
Global Undergraduate Exchange Program.
Sponsored by the U.S. Department of State,
this program engages emerging student
leaders from underrepresented sectors in
East Asia, Eurasia and Central Asia, the
Near East and South Asia and the Western
Hemisphere.
These students apply for the opportunity
to come to the U.S. and enrich their
academic careers by enrolling in courses
in an American school. They are also
able to engage in American culture and
tradition through the Cultural Passport to
America Program, which provides cultural
involvement opportunities throughout the
community and mandates that the students
engage in volunteerism.
Timothy Gjini serves as the associate
director at the International Services ofce.
It is a rigorous program guide requiring
exceptional performance in and out of
classroom settings, Gjini said.
He also mentioned the highly competitive
application and selection process these
students must pass in order to be considered
for enrollment in the program. Since the
program is federally funded, fewer than 100
students are selected each year.
In essence, the students who are nally
chosen are truly the cream of the crop
according to Gjini. The participants live in
student housing during their time at FGCU,
and the University makes an effort to place
them in dormitories with other American
students, in order to further enrich their
cultural experience.
This semester, two students from Asia
were allotted the opportunity to participate
in the Global UGRAD program and travel to
the United States. Nasha Chia Hwee Lee of
Malaysia and Hun Whee Lee of South Korea
are considered among the best and brightest
within their respective schools.
Nasha, an environmental engineering
major, played a key role in establishing the
University of Malaysias rst recycling
program.
Hun, a business administration and
East Asian studies major, has conducted
research into the effects and relations of
cross-cultural marriages in order to better
integrate immigrants into the feverously
expanding South Korean society.
Both students were not aware of their
host university until the later stages of
the selection process, but neither was
disappointed with their move to sunny
Southwest Florida.

nnorta|s turns Cree| ods |nto suer|eroes
By JoeI Morris
Staff writer
Hollywood plays fast and loose with
Greek mythology.
Troy condensed a 10-year war into a
month, Clash of the Titans featured not
a single Titan and 300 managed to take
out all the Spartan man-love and still be
homoerotic.
Now we have Immortals, which once
again eschews historical accuracy to have
a bunch of beautiful people run around
with swords and sandals.
Mickey Rourkes in it, too, so thats
pretty cool.
In the world of Immortals, King
Hyperion (Rourke) seeks the Epirus Bow,
a weapon of the gods to unleash the Titans,
monstrous primordial beings.
Theseus (Henry Cavill) is then
appointed by Zeus (Luke Evans) to oppose
Hyperion.
As Hyperion and his legions lay waste
to Greece, Theseus is left as the only man
to stand in the way of the mad tyrant.
Director Tarsem Singh clearly wanted
a modern take on the myths of old. The
gods, rather than Greek, look like Western
European runway models, with the
golden-haired Isabel Lucas standing out in
particular.
The gods also have elaborate, symbolic
costumes unfathomable back then, with
Poseidon having an awesome fish-shaped
headpiece adorned with seashells.
Further, the world Singh has created is
both detailed and apocalyptic.
This isnt just because of a massive
army destroying everything in its path, but
a general sense of sorrow, even amongst
the gods.
The remaining six (of 12) gods have
retreated to their marble palace above the
clouds and taken a vow of noninterference,
after having vanquished their greatest
foes.
Its reminiscent of the question What
will Superman do when he beats Lex
Luthor?
Speaking of Superman, Henry Cavill
does a solid job as the films hero, and
proves to a larger audience that hes ready
to be the Man of Steel next year.
Though, the real stars are Stephen
Dorff as Theseus roguish sidekick, and
Rourke knocking it out of the park as
Hyperion, a twisted mirror of Theseus.
There is a surprisingly little amount of
bloodshed in the first half of the film, but
its used effectively; Hyperions Witness
Hell act will haunt your dreams and
deserves cinematic infamy on par with the
Jokers pencil trick.
The second half kicks up both the gore
and the stylization when the gods become
involved. The stylization is the real magic
of the film.
On the surface, the movie is just a
standard retelling of the Heros Journey,
but the narrative is dense with twists like
beautiful costumery, Christian imagery,
and even nods to the Norse Ragnarok.
If youre a fan of visual flair,
Immortals is a must-see.
The one major flaw the film has is
focusing too much on the lowly, mundane
humans, rather than the epic scope of the
gods.
Immortals is good as is, and if the
director had been allowed to go wild itd be
unforgettable.

Many college students sit in their dorm
and contemplate what they want to do
with their life after college. After spending
her summer in Africa, Samantha Geis
found her answer.
Geiss travel experience also changed
her as a person.
She began her trip in June with
International Student Volunteers, a
nonprofit organization with which Geis
visited seven countries.
After arriving in Africa, Geis said
she felt a mixture of culture shock and
excitement.
She was introduced to her team leader,
Cornelius Van Aswegen, who gave Geis
and the rest of the group advice for getting
the most out of the trip.
When you are traveling, dont look
down on these locals. Dont toss them
aside because they are not your lifestyle.
Get to know them and you will learn so
much more, Van Aswegen told Geis about
her journey.
Juggling between volunteering and
going on African excursion, Geis said
she quickly fell in love with the Dark
Continent.
Two things she learned were
particularly fascinating to Geis: The king
of Swaziland was looking for a new bride
and a billboard stated one out of three
people have AIDS.
Geis said that billboard made the whole
AIDS crisis real. I always knew AIDS was
a big problem over here [in Africa], but not
that huge, Geis said. But talking to these
people you would have had no idea.
Locals affected by AIDS told Geis they
werent afraid of living with the disease.
It made them appreciate life more,
Geis said. In Africa, they live life without
fear, and over here, we fear everything,
she said.
Everyone there is so happy. ... I saw
the beauty the world has to offer and really
learned how to live.
Interestingly, Happy was the name of
a woman with whom Geis shared an in-
depth conversation at a hotel in the Hover
National Park.
We talked about her education, school
and her children, Geis said.
She worked for the World Cup, which I
thought was so cool.
When she came home in July, Geis
said she immediately began looking for
ways to get back to Africa. She considered
re-enrolling in the program, and most
recently Geis started looking into the
Peace Corps.
I miss it every day and cant wait to go
back, she said.
Geis encourages her peers to do
something similar. If everyone at the
university traveled, we would be happier.
The problems we have would not seem
that big. There are bigger problems out
there, Geis said.
FAST FACTS ABOUT AFRICA
It is the worlds second-largest and most-
populous continent after Asia. It is 11.7
million square miles, covering 6 percent of
the Earths total surface area.
More than 1 billion people live in 61
territories, accounting for about 15 percent
of the worlds human population.
It has wild populations of large carnivores
(lions, hyenas and cheetahs), herbivores
(buffalo, elephants, camels and
giraffes), jungle animals (snakes and
primates) and aquatic life (crocodiles and
amphibians).
Despite having abundant natural
resources, Africa remains the worlds
poorest and most underdeveloped
continent.

Produce patroI: CoIIier deputy
starts an organic food company
By Ryan Toohey
Contributing writer
When Collier County sheriff s Deputy
Craig Demange isnt transporting
criminals to jail, he is delivering organic
produce to customers.
Demange, 35, founded his organic
produce company, Organics of Naples, in
2010.
Im a middle-class person, too,
Demange said.
It makes me feel good to be able to
save families some money.
He began with 20 customers in his
first year of service with the intentions
of providing customers an inexpensive
option to buy healthy produce.
Since the companys inception,
Organics of Naples has gained 400
customers.
Demange has Groupon, a free
website which provides daily deals with
substantial savings on products, to thank
for his clientele boost. He says the online
service brought him approximately 200
customers in June, 100 of whom have
become regulars.
Organics of Naples offers three options
on its website for customers to choose
from. They recommend the value box for
a customers first purchase.
For $34.99, the value box contains 13
to 15 items and is best suited for a two- to
four-person family.
Customers can also order the small box
for $24.99. The small box contains 10 or
11 items and is best suited for one or two
people.
For $44.99, customers can order the
extra-value box, which contains 13 to 15
items. This box contains more of each
item than the value box contains. This
option is best suited for a family of four to
six people.
Each box will contain a mix of fruits
and vegetables, which Demange says he
selects on a weekly basis. He bases his
choices on what he feels adds the best
diversity and value to the box.
Every box will contain one or two
expensive items each week, Demange
said.
Demange allows customers to
substitute unwanted items for an item of
their choice for a $1-per-item fee. He says
if customers want to avoid the fee, they
can choose to substitute an unwanted item
for surplus items.
The advantages of his service are
noticeable.
Demange said his produce costs 30
percent less than supermarket produce.
If this wasnt enough to entice customers
to try his product, Demange offers free
delivery to all customers in Naples.
Demange said there is a $1 delivery
fee for Marco Island, Bonita Springs and
Estero residents. Fort Myers, Lehigh
Acres and Cape Coral residents will be
charged a $2 delivery fee.
Organics of Naples currently delivers
on Tuesday and Wednesday. Demange said
he hopes to start delivering on Thursdays
in the near future.
There is a $20 sign-up fee for new
customers. Demange says he will waive
this fee for college students.
Even though this service requires a
membership, customers are not required
to order produce each week. Customers
are able to order boxes weekly, bi-weekly
or periodically.
Why should consumers eat organic?
Demange doesnt want to consume
non-organic produce due to the pesticides
sprayed on many fruits and vegetables.
Chemicals which are sprayed on foods
cant be good for you, Demange said.
0rgan|c vs. nenergan|c
If youre concerned about residues,
said Dr. Tim Durham, a university
colloquium professor at Florida Gulf Coast
University, I would encourage you to wash
(your produce) multiple times.
Durham has a doctorate degree in plant
medicine, which covers plant nutrition and
food safety. He spends his time off during
the summer working at his familys farm in
Long Island.
Foods have to follow strict guidelines to
be labeled organic, Durham said. He says
there are specific pesticides and fertilizers
that qualify, which must be approved by
the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
The resources used in these organic
pesticides and fertilizers usually have
to originate from plants or something
sourced in nature, Durham said.
There are three classes of organic
foods: 100 percent organic, 95 percent and
70 percent, Durham said. If a product is
labeled 70 percent organic, Durham says it
may only hold the USDA label made with
organic ingredients.
Durham doesnt usually eat organic
produce. He says he sticks to whatever
produce is the most affordable.
One of the aspects of organics I do like
is the fact that it attempts to reconnect
people to where their food comes from,
he said. There has been this long-term
disconnect brewing for decades.
Durham also says the localization that
comes with organic farming is beneficial.
My goal for Organics of Naples is to
get it out there in Collier and Lee and to
move it up the west coast, Demange said.
For customers looking for a healthy
Thanksgiving feast, Organics of Naples
will be offering the Thanksgiving box.
This will include an all-natural turkey
with assorted fruits and vegetables to
complement it.
Readers interested in more information

Durham recommends sourcing
food locally for those who strive to eat
healthier.
The organic vs. non-organic debate
may go on, but in the meantime, Deputy
Demange will do his best to cuff you to the
best produce in Southwest Florida.

Your Tunes
What are you listening to?
Your
Livin in a procrastination nation
By CaroI Schneider
Staff writer
When listing facts about college
life, many students mentioned that
in college we tend to:
Schedule classes around
nightlife, we learn that the later
the class the better, napping
becomes essential between classes,
microwaved food is necessary, cereal
can make a meal, email becomes
your second language, getting
packages is a reason for excitement,
skipping class is no longer a big deal,
nding a spot in the library equals
winning and studying all night turns
to be completely common.
Some of these college rules
may not apply to everyone, but one
fact that several students seem
to identify and agree with is that
procrastination becomes an art.
A majority of students tend
to procrastinate when having to
do work for classes. The act of
intentionally putting off the doing
of something that should be done
or delaying or deferring an action
to a later time sounds familiar and
habitual to many of us.
But why is procrastination such
a common happening?
We tend to put off important
tasks either because they might
seem too hard to complete, time-
consuming, because we feel like we
need to be in the mood to actually
sit and get it done, or because we
think we are lazy. We know we are
going to do it eventually, but it is
easier to leave the task at hand for
the last minute.
CONFESSIONS FROM
PROCRASTINATORS
I wait till the night before to get
things done. Why do it now when you
can get it done later? said Michael
Danis, a sophomore majoring in
nursing.
I kept postponing to write an
essay and forgot to do it. I ended up
writing it 45 minutes before it was
due, printed and got a C on it. Not
worth the procrastination, said
Amanda Smith, a senior majoring in
communication.
It (procrastination) is not an
efcient method because by waiting
until the last minute, you put a lot of
stress on yourself, said Mercedes
Zambrano, a sophomore majoring in
chemistry.
I deal with being a
procrastinator by spending many
hours in the library the night before
something is due and trying not
to get distracted by Facebook
or Twitter. People should avoid
procrastinating because the work
piles up faster than you think, said
Kyle Ostroff, a senior majoring in
sports management.
I believe that students in college
procrastinate so much because there
are too many distractions and better
things to do such as eating and
drinking. I study for tests and work
on a project the night before it is due,
I stay up all night with cheese sticks
and Mountain Dew and get it done,
said Cody Lo, a junior majoring in
theatre.
The worst deadline I
procrastinated for was a
Composition II paper that I wrote
the morning of and still managed to
get a B plus on it, a Connor Ramage,
a sophomore majoring in business
management.
I know I am a procrastinator
because I tend to always wait until
the last few hours before a homework
(assignment) is due to start working
on it, even though I had plenty of time
to do it days before, said Tommy
Twyford, a sophomore majoring in
environmental engineering.
Why is procrastination like
masturbation? Because it sounds
like a good idea at the time, but in the
end you are just screwing yourself,
Twyford said
Every student is affected by
procrastination but in different
degrees.
Some might get done with
important homework and papers
way ahead of time, but tend to
procrastinate on less important
tasks.
Others the majority leave
not only the less important, but
also the important and extremely
important tasks all for the last
second possible.
The extreme procrastinators
usually miss their deadlines to
submit an essay or a project, and
study for a test 10 minutes before
taking it.
Whatever your case is, try to
remember that if you have two
weeks to complete an assignment
or to write a paper, it is much better
to get it over with than to stress out
about it the day before is due.
It is easy to say it and hard to
actually do it, but a good way to avoid
procrastination is to reserve a time
of the day to sit in the library and
do school work - without breaks to
check your Facebook.
However, its important to keep
in mind that many people actually
enjoy the act of procrastinating
because they work much better
under pressure - very common to
many students.
In this case, just make sure that
the day before a deadline is enough
time to get something done, because
it might take a lot more time than
you think.

ctudents rhythn and |ove or nus|c |s heard throuh beat box|n
By Andrew Friedgen
Opinion editor
Armed with nothing but his
vocal cords, a Florida Gulf Coast
University student is looking
forward to the day he beatboxes in
front of millions on Americas Got
Talent. But rst, Brandon Bernard
must conquer FGCU open mic
nights and Youtube.
Bernard, who goes by the
pseudonym Abscent, is a senior
communication major who has
beatboxed for 13 years.
I can honestly say that
beatboxing goes far beyond just
making noises with the mouth. For
me, beatboxing describes ones
character, he said. Every person
who beatboxes does it differently,
and its because of that difference in
style and artistry that makes it so
interesting.
Beatboxing is the process of
creating beats using only your vocal
cords and mouth. Bernard began
when he was 9 years old after he
imitated his brothers beatboxing.
His impetus for what he considers
an art was 50 Cents In Da Club.
He says that the skills needed for
beatboxing are a sense of rhythm
and a love for music. You build from
a simple kick sound and add clap, hi-
hat, and snare sounds, he says.
Beatboxing can be applied
professionally in A Capella groups,
Djing or even beatboxing to other
music you have created. Justin
Timberlake, Timbaland, Rahzel and
Biz Markie are popular names in the
beatboxing world.
Bernard looks up to some of
these artists, as well as Ludacris,
Twista, LMFAO, Michael Jackson
and Usher.
Without these inuences,
I wouldnt really know what my
beatboxing would be like, Bernard
said.
Over the course of my years
of beatboxing, each artist adds a
different avor to how I interpret
music and the sound that I produce,
he said.
Bernard says he creates a new
beat by mimicking the beat of a song.
He then replicates the melodies with
his voice.
He has covered the Super Mario
Brothers theme song, Ushers DJ
Got us Fallin In Love, and Fergies
Big Girls Dont Cry.
He also creates his own beats
and freestyles to existing songs.
For me, a song is never truly
nished unless it has my personal
touch added to it. Beatboxing to
music makes you want to dance
and be yourself, Bernard said. Its
transformed my love for music and
shaped who I am today.
Bernards personal touch
includes techno, dubstep, house and
freestyle genres. He has covered
electronic songs such as Devs
Dancing the Dark and LIGHTS
My Boots.
Bernard has found success on
Youtube. He uploads his beats onto
his account and says all feedback is
positive even if its negative.
I have received positive
responses. The majority, however,
consistently think its fake and
believe music is playing in the
background, he said.
I take these comments as
compliments.
Bernard has performed at
FGCU open mic nights in addition to
beatboxing in and around his dorm.
His ultimate goal, however, is to
audition for Americas Got Talent
in order to make a name for himself.
My inspiration to beatbox stems
from my family. When I was younger,
music was always around me. I love
to dance and sing. Beatboxing just
became a second nature along with
the movements and melodies of the
music, he said.
Bernard made it clear, though,
if he doesnt get to Americas Got
Talent, the love for the craft will
keep him upbeat.

Note: This is a response to Gov. Rick
Scotts letter published in the Nov. 9
edition of Eagle News.
I read the letter from Rick
Scott to you and I with much
tribulation.
He writes that education
offers many benefits, yet he never
once talks about who will educate
all of these STEM workers he says
that Florida will need.
How will these workers learn
to read, learn to write, learn to
think out of the box and propel
innovation forward and provide
more people
with the
opport uni t y
to work
and make a
better life for
themselves?
He starts
his article
by saying he
used to ask if you and I would look
for a job that used our degrees and
went on to say, Will your major
prepare you for that job?
Mr. Scott, I am going to be
a teacher. A far from lucrative
position in which I will be stressed,
abused, thought of as a mere joke
looking for constant summer
vacation.
Will my education prepare me
for that? I believe it will alert me to
these things, but only experience
will really prepare me.
Will you support my endeavor?
Thats what I highly doubt.
You stand behind your podium
and teach mock classes set up to
make you look good in Immokalee
for the cameras ... to tell me that I
am nothing.
My chosen profession can
be so easily swept under the
bureaucratic rug and you can
place emphasis on what YOU
deem as intrinsic values in our
adult lives.
I am no college newcomer.
I have worked in your STEM
workforce. I have hired warm
bodies with little to no education
and watched them struggle to
perform menial tasks because
they came at a cost-effective wage,
and I could go home at night.
I see what a reduced focus on
other important skills does to the
young people in the world.
They are the unemployed, they
are the ones suffering, they are the
ones you accuse of being a plight
on society. I must admit, that I
thought I could get by in my life
with just a high school diploma.
I knew how to read, basic math,
and knew some science. Only after
coming back to school to expand
on my own knowledge did I realize
how much bull I bought into from
people like you, from affluent
individuals who felt I should stay a
worker bee while they reaped the
benefits of my hard work.
Education, a core value you
have excluded from your STEM
baloney, is the ROOT of the
mission.
You can not continue to under-
fund and de-fund programs that
teach English, critical thinking
and the arts.
There is more to life than
crunching numbers and making
a stable structure. Numbers and
architecture can be beautiful.
They should be, but if you take
away the ability for someone to see
them that way, you have doomed
us all to a vision of dull mediocrity
in our own lives.
I cant believe that you and the
people you surround yourself have
placed such low expectations on
us all.
You have discounted the
concerto that a student may
one day write, that utilizes
mathematical formulas to keep a
beat.
You have discounted the
great novel that will one day
be written because you think
that grammatical skills arent
necessary to invent technology.
You have not only let all of us
college students down, you have
exposed yourself for what you
really are: a rich, power hungry,
short-sighted man with no real
love of the population you serve.
You really just want to control us.

As the Democrats prepare their strategy
to regain full control of both houses of
Congress and their bid to re-elect President
Obama for a second term, the party of
Roosevelt and Kennedy will have to gain a
second voice of reason for a successful 2012
election.
Ive decided to nominate the 42nd
president of the United States, not to
mention the most active former president of
the past three decades, William J. Clinton.
As president, he kept unemployment
and ination low, he increased the national
minimum wage and he signed the Violent
Crime Control and Law Enforcement
Act, which hired 100,000 policemen and
instituted harsher punishments for a
variety of crimes.
All together, his economic policies
created 22 million jobs, and by proposing
a balanced budget, he achieved budget
surplus.
With these accomplishments, it should
be no surprise that no other president has
left ofce with higher approval ratings than
Bill Clinton, with 66 percent.
Since leaving ofce in 2001, the
former governor of Arkansas and the rst
Democrat since FDR to be elected president
for a second term has been very busy in his
role as a humanitarian with the foundation
named after him.
Now, in his new book, Back To Work:
Why We Need Smart Government for a
Strong Economy, he tackles the issues
we face as a country that our politicians
in Congress are ghting over every single
day on how to move America in the right
direction.
From the title of the book, Clinton
clearly shares my philosophy that
government needs to work with the
American people to regain the economic
stability we once had, and he says we must
agree to make investments in green energy
and infrastructure improvements.
He also advocates reforming the tax
code, cutting some corporate taxes and
giving businesses greater incentives to hire,
which President Obama is advocating with
the American Jobs Act.
In an interview with USA Today on Nov.
7, Clinton points out that both parties have
gotten it wrong when it comes to governing:
People they dont want too much
government, but they want enough. If they
think the government is giving them too
much, theyll vote for the Republicans to get
a little less. They looked at the stimulus and
the nancial rescue and the auto bailout and
all that stuff that happened and they said: A
little too much: we want a little less, he said.
The ip side of Clintons argument is
that when you have government of the small
size that conservatives such as the anti-tax
lobbyist Grover Norquist desires, you nd
cuts in jobs that really represent the middle
class of our country teachers, police,
reghters, social services, public health,
etc., which leads to unemployment and the
difculty of trying to nd another.
That frustration often makes people
stop looking for work altogether.
But Clinton also points the nger at
the many patriotic Americans that can be
found at the Occupy Wall Street protests
with some constructive criticism on how to
get their message out successfully.
He suggests that politicians be
invited down to the protests to talk to the
demonstrators to nd out what they stand
for so changes can be made to benet the 99
percent of this country.
I would recommend members of the
progressive caucus of Congress such
as Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders and
House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi
of California to go down and talk with the
protesters and march with them, since
they have already been very vocal in their
support of this international movement.
I also would like to see presidential
candidates Ron Paul and Jon Huntsman
attend these events and talk to the
protesters to see what they are all about,
since they do support their right to protest.
Sadly, most Republicans would rather
write the protesters off entirely as anti-
capitalist, mobs or uneducated, without
remembering The First Amendment
or even listening to the message of the
protesters on Occupy
The protesters represent those who Kid
Rock sings about in his latest song, Care.
The American people hear screaming
on the left, yelling on the right, and they are
sitting in the middle trying to live their life
without trying to hate anyone.
As I read Clintons book this past
weekend, I discovered that the problems in
the last decade stemmed from less action
taken regarding domestic issues compared
to The Clinton Administration in the 1990s.
Another one of the problems was the tax
breaks given to wealthy Americans under
Ronald Reagan and George W. Bush in the
hopes that they alone would put people back
to work.
Finally, the consequences of allowing
our economic system to have no regulations
on both Wall Street and the banks led to the
nancial meltdown and the bailout of Wall
Street in 2008.
It is time for both the politicians and
the public to end the conict and partisan
bickering and take Bill Clintons advice for
the sake of those in the middle before we all
become cynics, conformists, and give up on
the idea of democracy and a just society.

If you type occupy the banks
into Google, you will get about 124
million results, so it might come
as a surprise to nd out Bank
Transfer Day was not an act of the
Occupy Wall Street movement.
Organizer Kristen Christian
used Facebook not only to promote
Saturday, Nov. 5 as Bank Transfer
Day, but also to let the more 60,600
people who like the page know
while the movement acknowledges
the enthusiasm from Occupy Wall
Street, it declines to endorse it.
Even though the two forms of
protest might not be associated,
they were born from the same
sense of frustration and willingness
to take action against big banks like
Bank of America.
Since the highly contested,
and then reversed, policy
announcement on Sept. 29, by Bank
of America that debit card users
would be charged a $5-a-month
fee, the Credit Union National
Association (CUNA) estimates
650,000 new credit union members
have been added.
New accounts are ooding in at
an average of 20,000 new members
each business day.
According to a CUNA press
release issued Nov. 8 , more than
40,000 of those new accounts were
opened on Bank Transfer Day,
which accounted for approximately
$80 million in savings deposits on
that day alone.
On a local
level, Suncoast
Schools Federal
Credit Union
reported a
92 percent
increase in new
members during
the month of
October as
compared to the same month last
year.
Thanks in part to high-prole
movements such as Occupy Wall
Street and Bank Transfer Day,
people are beginning to take a
better look at where they put their
money.
But if you were one of those
who moved your money from Bank
of America to a credit union over
the past six weeks, dont think they,
or any other of the so-called big
banks, are shedding any tears at
your departure.
Low-balance bank accounts
cost more money for the banks to
maintain. In some ways, closing
your account might have done
them a favor.
In my experience with credit
unions, a customer is not simply an
account, but rather a member.
When you bank with a credit
union, your money helps grow the
local economy.
Big banks might try to persuade
you into believing their services
are better or more convenient, but
only you can decide if the fees they
charge are worth it for your needs.
After all, in a recent survey by
J. D. Power and Associates, Bank of
America ranked lowest in customer
satisfaction.
Why would anyone want to pay
more for less?

>> NCAA
FGCU has risen to the top
of their conference rather
quickly. After sitting out post-
season play for four years due
to a reclassication to Division
I athletics, the Eagles are
tournament bound in their rst
season of eligibility.
It is a testament to the
program that Butehorn has
built from the ground up, a
program that emphasizes team
over the individual.
Senior goalkeeper Adam
Glick can buy into the team
concept better than anybody.
The schools all-time leader in
saves, shutouts and anything
else a goalie can record stats in,
has had to stand by and watch
after a knee injury forced him to
the sidelines.
This is the best feeling in
the world, Glick said. But
we know the magnitude. We
understand. It is business as
usual, and that keeps the edge.
Everyone is really focused.
After initially being ruled
out for the season, there is a
chance Glick can return for the
NCAA tournament. He will be a
game-time decision.
In the meantime, the Eagles
are preparing for the biggest
game of their lives.
I dont know if Glick will
play. We will take it day-by-
day, Butehorn said. Nathan
(Ingham) has played well. It is a
nice luxury to have.
FGCU will have its work cut
out no matter who is in goal.
If they get by UCF, they will
travel to Tampa on Nov. 20 for a
rematch against South Florida.
The Bulls are the overall No.
7 seed in the tournament, and
defeated the Eagles at the
FGCU Soccer Complex on Oct.
4.
With the long road ahead, it
is understandable that there is
no time for reection.
There is not one single
moment that stands out in time
over any others. We laugh and
joke and talk about the hills and
obstacles, but we dont do that,
Butehorn said. We have gone
about building the program and
foundation the right way. We
havent let anything affect our
vision and dream, and we know
we wont get where we are going
by taking shortcuts.
The hrst NCAA tournament game in FGCU men's soccer's young history is scheduIed to take pIace in OrIando on
Thursday against UCF.

The FGCU swimming and
diving team is off to a quick
5-1 start, winning its last three
meets.
FGCUs margin of victory
in its five wins is an astounding
average of 43 points.
Eagles coach Neal Studd
attributes the teams success to
hard work, great team spirit and
good recruiting.
It seems like we get better
and better every year, Studd
said.
FGCU is led by some star-
studded freshmen recruits this
year. Emma Svensson of Sweden
has been Coastal Collegiate
Swimming Association swimmer
of the week twice so far this year
and Cassie Niles (Helotes, Texas)
has been very strong in the
freestyle.
Studd looks to now have
Devon Robbins (London, UK)
in the water after finally being
cleared by the NCAA Clearing
House. These freshmen will
continue to have a big impact at
FGCU this year and beyond.
This weekend, the Eagles will
be traveling to Atlanta for the
Georgia Tech Invitational. Teams
from the Southeastern and
Atlantic Coast conferences and
other leagues across the nation
will be there.
This is the second-most
important meet of year behind
the conference and postseason
meets, Studd said.
The team has high
expectations this weekend, and
so does Studd.
We want to put in some great
times and take down some ACC
powers like Clemson and Virginia
while we are there, Studd said.
It has been two weeks since
FGCUs last meet in Boston, when
the Eagles beat Boston College
and Maine in convincing fashion.
The Eagles have hit the pools
hard working on the little things
to make themselves better going
into the Georgia Tech Invite.
The team is working on
our fine details and technical
details like our starts, turns, and
finishes, Studd said.
Senior Danielle Butler
anticipates the Georgia Tech
Invite.
It is business as usual right
now, but Im thinking as soon as
we get there, the excitement will
kick in.
It will be FGCUs last meet
until January, when the Eagles
begin to host teams at the FGCU
Aquatic Center.
FGCU looks to carry
momentum and confidence
from the Georgia Tech Invite to
January and hopefully onto the
Coastal Collegiate Swimming
Association Conference
Championships in February.
FGCU is the three-time
defending champion in the CCSA
championships.

Coming off a 7-19 season last
year, where they failed to qualify
for the Atlantic Sun tournament
they hosted, the FGCU volleyball
team has rewritten the script.
With a 10-3 record in the
A-Sun this season, after beating
both UNF and Jacksonville last
weekend, the Eagles will be
making their second trip to the
A-Sun tournament, as the No. 3
seed.
FGCU will face No. 6 UNF in
the first round at 5 p.m. Thursday
in Nashville.
This will be the third time
the two teams have met this
season. The Eagles own a 2-0
advantage over UNF, including
last weekends 3-2 victory. The
winner will move on to face No. 2
Lipscomb the defending A-Sun
champ in the semifinal game
Friday.
Senior outside hitter Jelena
Simic is looking forward to
playing UNF yet again.
Its good for us that we
already beat them, so its going
to be easier for us to play them
again on Thursday and get an
easy win hopefully, Simic said.
Freshmen outside hitter Jill
Hopper agrees.
I think were prepared,
Hopper said. We played them
twice already, so we kind of know
how they work, and they also
know how we work. Its going to
be a scrappy game, a lot of hustle.
I think its going to be a fight until
the end.
Its always hard to beat a team
three consecutive times. Simic
hopes focus isnt an issue.
We have to stay focused and
not go down there and be like,
We already beat them, Simic
said. We still have to play hard
against them. Its going to be
tough, and they wont give up and
give us an easy win.
Inconsistency has plagued
FGCU all year. Theyve won
a lot of games on guts and
competitiveness, and senior
libero Holly Youngquist knows
that might not be enough.
We need to be consistent,
Youngquist said. A lot of times,
we have like four or five streaks
where we just give up a bunch of
points. We need to stay on it. If
they (UNF) get a side out we need
to come back and play the next
point like were down.
Though his team has handled
UNF twice already, FGCU coach
Dave Nichols says they havent
played well doing it.
I dont think we played them
particularly well at their place on
Friday, Nichols said. I think that
if we sharpen up our game and
are more consistent we should
handle the situation a lot better.
Im looking forward to it. I think
actually we can play much better
than we played. I think we can
make it a much easier match.
Back in 2009, the Eagles
made it all the way to the A-Sun
Championship game, losing to
Lipscomb in three sets. This time,
the Eagles hope to win and move
on to the NCAA Tournament for
the first time.
Well it would mean a lot to us
(making the NCAA tournament)
considering we didnt even make
it to the (A-Sun) tournament last
year, Youngquist said. We want
to win the (A-Sun) finals and go
to the NCAA Tournament, which
would be incredible, especially
for a lot of us who have been here
for a long time.

After winning three
consecutive season openers, the
FGCU womens basketball team
dropped this years rst game of
the 2011-12 season Nov. 11 on the
road to Big East foe Seton Hall.
You have to give Seton Hall
credit, FGCU coach Karl Smesko
said. They really defended us
well, and we didnt execute as well
as we would have liked.
This is just the third time in
the programs history that the
Eagles were defeated in the season
opener. The last time came at the
start of the 2007 season, when the
Eagles lost to Florida State.
This is also the rst time since
2003 that the womens basketball
team did not open its season at
Alico Arena.
After the weekend, the Eagles
traveled to Florida International
to face off against the Golden
Panthers on Monday. FGCU shot
43 percent from the eld and
defeated FIU 80-72.
We took some things from
the rst game and actually played
better because of the mistakes we
xed from the rst game, Smesko
said.
Senior Nicoya Jackson scored
a career-high 29 points, including
six three-pointers, to lead FGCU in
scoring in the win.
Because of her performance
in that game, she earned A-Sun
Player of the Week.
The game was really intense,
Jackson said. I knew we had to go
out there and we really needed a
win because we started off kind of
rough. So I just came out thinking,
We need this win, so I just went all
out.
Jackson went 10-for-19 from
the eld, 6-14 from behind the arc
and made 3 of 5 free throws in 35
minutes.
Shes (Jackson) somebody
that can create offense by not only
knocking down shots, but she can
also penetrate and move the ball
and create shots for other people,
Smesko said. Shes off to a great
start and hopefully shell continue
to play at this level.
FGCU will have the week off
before its big showdown with the
2010 Big Ten champion, Michigan
State, at home on Nov. 19.
Theyre (Michigan State) huge,
fast, strong and very talented,
Smesko said. If were hot and we
shoot the ball exceptionally well we
have a chance to stay in the game.
Michigan State dropped their
rst game to non-conference foe
Villanova and dropped out of the
top 25.
I was a little surprised that
they dropped their rst game, but
they bounced back well in their
second game, Smesko said.
The Michigan State game is
the rst of four consecutive home
games that includes Richmond,
Webber International and then
A-Sun foe ETSU. In its next seven
games, six are at home, the lone
away game being against Central
Florida Dec. 8.
At home we get a lot of support
and a lot of fans, so it makes us
feel comfortable and itll help our
condence, Jackson said.

VoIIeybaII back in conference tournament

The FGCU mens club volleyball
team nished second in the FGCU
volleyball tournament at Alico
Arena on Saturday.
The competition featured
schools from throughout the state,
including the University of Central
Florida and Miami.
UCF won the tournament.
The tournament consisted of
10 teams, two pools of ve, with
the top three teams from each
pool eventually playing in a single-
elimination playoff.
Club president Robert Ritchie
welcomed having big- name
schools travel to FGCU.
The purpose of the
tournament was to serve as a
fundraiser for the club team,
Ritchie said. We also wanted to
get some good play in.
The tournament served as the
clubs last exhibition before the
start of the regular season.
Ritchie says competing against
high-prole schools carries larger
signicance as well.
Its pretty big to have these
schools here, Ritchie said. Were
trying to grow the sport of mens
volleyball here, and the more that
these schools come here the more
we can get the name. Students
see big-name schools here and it
makes volleyball exciting.
Ritchie looks for high school
volleyball talent to ock to FGCU
to play for the club.
There is not one school in
Florida with a varsity mens
volleyball team, so we gure the
bigger club volleyball gets, the
more kids out of high school will
want to come here and continue to
play volleyball at a high level.
The process of organizing
the tournament, from reserving
the gym to inviting all of the
schools, was rigorous and began in
September.
One of the visitors to FGCU
was UCFs Matt Szikney.
Szikney said he enjoyed
traveling to FGCU.
It felt great to be playing
here and its a great experience,
Szikney said. Volleyball is
not really a popular sport, but
its becoming more popular in
Florida.

mens volleyball club, Ritchie can

After taking off his sport coat, Andy
Eneld jumped out of his seat and berated
freshman guard Dante Holmes for a poor
closeout.
Later, freshman guard Brett Comer
dribbled up court, faked a pass, found space
and dashed around two defenders before
crashing into an upright Gyrene for a charge.
In between, a rocking student section (part
of the more than 1,500 fans in Alico Arena)
belted out Andy Eneld chants, as two fans
carried giant cutouts of the rst year coachs
face.
In its rst home game under Eneld, the
new-look FGCU (1-1) mens basketball team
beat Ave Maria 79-64 on Monday in a high
energy, sloppy affair betting an Eagles squad
that turned over half its roster from last year.
Eneld started three freshmen Monday,
using a different starting lineup than the
one employed in Fridays season-opening 73-
72 loss at TCU, with four rst-year players
receiving signicant playing time.
At TCU, FGCU battled back from 16 points
down to cut the lead to two late in the fourth
quarter before falling.
No FGCU player saw game action for
more than 30 minutes Monday, as Eneld
tinkers with his lineup, trying to nd the right
combinations on a deep roster.
The youth and newness of it all showed, as
the Eagles suffered 19 turnovers (an upgrade
from the 29 miscues against TCU) and often
gave up penetration and uncontested three
three-pointers to the NAIA Gyrenes.
A 27-10 run to start the second half (FGCU
shot 69.2 percent after intermission) bailed
out FGCU.
I didnt think any one of our players played
a great game, Eneld said. I thought a lot of
guys played OK, but not up to their potential.
We did share the basketball and took open
shots. But other times we forced things and
we were a little too anxious. We have to learn
what is a good shot and what isnt.
Bernard Thompson, another freshman
starter who has scored 12.5 points per game
while playing the second-most minutes on
the Eagles, wants FGCU to get the big men
involved and communicate better.
Were still trying to nd our chemistry
and identity, Thompson said. We know each
other, but on the court its hard to get a feel for
everybody.
We need to get Kevin Cantinol (senior
center who had two shot attempts Monday
night) involved and we need to talk more. But
were getting better and working.
After playing a team-high 31 minutes
Friday, Cantinol saw 19 minutes of game time
Monday.
Eneld promises to avoid using a set
rotation, instead employing fresh bodies and
milking the hot hand.
We share minutes on this team, Eneld
said. No one is going to play 40 minutes. We
have no set rotation where one player plays
set minutes before coming out. You have to
have a feel. If theyre playing well, you leave
them in longer. If theyre not playing well,
you take them out and tell them what theyre
doing wrong.
Comer, FGCUs starting point guard
and leader in scoring and assists, and junior
shooting guard Sherwood Brown (team-
high 19 points off the bench on Monday) have
shined early.
Brown sees progress, but expects it to be
gradual.
Were not all the way there yet, but were
getting better quite fast, Brown said. By the
time conference play comes we will be a team
to be reckoned with.
Until then, FGCU hosts Prairie View A&M
at 7:05 p.m. Thursday.

Historic season ends in tough Ioss to UF
By Mike Ricci
CoManaging editor
The FGCU womens soccer
team capped off its historic season
with a 3-0 loss to the University of
Florida in the first round of the
NCAA Division I tournament on
Saturday.
The Gators scored 16 minutes
into the game and carried the 1-0
lead into the half. They scored two
additional goals late in the second
half.
We were in it for a long time,
Blankenship said. I thought
we played well and I thought we
played with a lot of energy. It was
1-0 with like 20 minutes left. I
think the difference is we gave up
three goals off of set pieces (free
kicks and corners). They were
good goals and they capitalized on
their opportunities.
The game was the first NCAA
tournament game for any team
in FGCU history. The FGCU
womens soccer team made it to
the tournament in its first year of
post-season eligibility by winning
the Atlantic Sun tournament.
Our team chemistry built
up really well and winning the
tournament was probably the
best moment for this season,
said Shannen Wacker, freshman
forward, who scored the game-
winning goal in double overtime in
the A-Sun tournament final.
The team is losing eight
seniors to graduation at the end of
this year.
Ashley Ciecielczyk, a senior
defender who led FGCU in assists
this season, reflects on the impact
of the outgoing class.
Theres not a better feeling
than going out and making
history, Ciecielczyk said.
Knowing that the seniors careers
are most likely over, and leaving
the footprint that we did for FGCU
athletics. Its unbelievable whats
happened the last five years.
Blankenship appreciates the
seniors efforts.
Those guys (seniors) have
been amazing for our program
with everything theyve done for
us, Blankenship said. Im so
proud of them.
FGCU will have to find a way
to replace the exiting seniors if
they expect to repeat as Atlantic
Sun champions.
Weve all watched and learned
and hopefully we can fill their
shoes (seniors), Wacker said. Its
going to be a rebuilding season,
but we are bringing in a bunch of
people and hopefully well be back
up there again next year.
Ciecielczyk hopes the young
players learned from the seniors,
and carry on the momentum.
Hopefully we got the young
girls excited to build on what
weve accomplished, Ciecielczyk
said. We lost a lot of seniors last
year and my class had to step up
and carry it. I know the younger
players can do the same.
Blankenship is confident the
team will not miss a beat when the
season starts up again next year.
Weve only been around for
five years, Blankenship said. We
will continue to work hard and
recruit and well only grow from
this and well get better. This is
just the tip of the iceberg for our
program.
