Jamie Williamson, public information officer for the IPD, said the man fell about 10 to15 feet from the roof of the fraternity, which is located on Ridgewood Road
Although Williamson could not speak to the seriousness of the man ’ s injuries, he said that when emergency teams arrived, the man was conscious and complaining of back pain
Cornell Catholic students have traveled together, according to Mazzawi
Approximately 165 members of the Cornell and local Ithaca Catholic communities traveled to Philadelphia to attend Pope Francis’ World Meeting of Families Papal Mass
Sunday, joining hundreds of thousands of Catholics
Students, faculty and staff members traveled in three buses for five hours to attend the mass in Philadelphia and returned early Monday morning, according to Joseph Mazzawi, Cornell Catholic Community associate director of programs and ministries
The trip, which was organized by the Cornell Catholic Community and St Catherine’s of Siena Catholic Church, a local Ithaca parish, is the first time such a large number of
“Not during my time have we done something like this before,” Mazzawi said “Every year a handful of students go with the local church’s buses down to Washington, D C or we’ll send around a dozen students to service trips, but we have never directly sponsored such a large pilgrimage to such a large event ”
Students who journeyed to Philadelphia said attending the Mass was a spiritual experience that helped connect them to the larger Catholic community
“[ When] you go to something like this and realize ‘Wow, the Catholic Church is spread across the globe and we are all

Around 25 students and professors gathered at the doors of Olin Library Saturday afternoon for a die-in demonstration to bring awareness to the disappearance of 43 students in Iguala, Mexico last September
After gathering, demonstrators laid silently on the ground of the Olin lobby for a 43 second die-in In addition to the die-in, the activists also held signs that read “Justicia para México” and “They tried to bury us, but they didn’t know we were seeds ”
Following the die-in, the demonstrators gathered in a circle outside of the library and shared stories on how important it is to keep these events in the public
eye
“We wanted Cornell students to realize that there are issues going on in the world and it’s important for them to speak out on them,” said Tiffany Fotopoulos ’18, one of the event organizers

The demonstration took place exactly one year after the 43 students disappeared in Mexico The students at the Ayotzinapa Rural Teachers’ College in Mexico were attacked while protesting
education reforms in the city of Iguala on Sept 26, 2014, according to The Associated Press
“He was conscious but not alert, breathing and moaning but not able to speak initially,” Williamson said
Williamson said no alcohol or drugs played a role in the incident and there is currently no suspicion of foul play
The Ithaca Fire Department, Bangs Ambulance, Cayuga Heights Fire Department and Ithaca Police Department all responded to the fall After emergency teams arrived, the man was transported by a Bangs Ambulance to a landing zone and was later taken to a regional trauma center by helicopter, according to Williamson

Finding himself in the right place at the right time, Max Aronson ’19 would not have predicted that a chance encounter in an airport with Ted Allen, the host of Food Network’s cooking competition show Chopped, would eventually lead to him winning $10,000 on the show
However, as viewers on Thursday night watched, Aronson was named the winner of the “ Teen Redeem” episode and received the grand prize, part of which he eventually donated to Memorial Sloan-Kettering Hospital
Aronson, a freshman in the School of Hotel Administration, hails from Saddle River, New Jersey and has been cooking “for basically as long as [he] can remember ”
“I feel like food is a really great way to express yourself, to express emotions,” he said “It just makes me happy and I like making other people happy through food ”
Aronson, who has been working at restaurants since he was 13 years old, said he recalled his home kitchen as the beginning of his culinary career
“My family is always the house to have family dinners for holidays,” he said “Whenever family came over my mom would cook huge meals, and I would always be by

her feet, helping her cook ”
According to Aronson, the very first thing he cooked was a plate of mashed potatoes he made at 8 years old
“I remember very distinctly helping my mom pour milk, and I poured too much,” he said “The mashed potato[es] [were] clearly very bad, but everyone told me it was good anyway ”
Beyond his home, Aronson was also able to refine his cooking skills through the culinary arts program of his high school
“My school had an annual chocolate competition where we make huge cakes and the only rule is that the main ingredient has to be chocolate,” he said
I got an email,” he said Chopped now in its 25th season features four chefs ever y episode, who compete against each other in three 20minute rounds of appetizer, entrée and dessert After each round, one contestant is “chopped” and the last remaining chef wins the episode
Thursday night was not Aronson’s first appearance on the show He first appeared on
“It made me feel much more confident in my abilities as a chef ”
Previous to his appearance on Chopped, Aronson said he also participated in numerous cooking competitions all across the country, including SkillsUSA a technical cooking competition throughout his high school years
However, Aronson credits his appearance on Chopped to “being at the right place at the right time ”
“I was living in China for a summer for a language immersion program, and on my flight back, I ran into Ted Allen, the host of the show I casually struck up a conversation and handed him my business card And the next week,

Chopped in the “ Teen Tournament” episode, which aired in July 2014
Aronson, who said he was “ ver y ner vous going in,” was “chopped” after the dessert round
Following his first appearance, Aronson said he was invited back to film for the show in February
“The second time going in, I was more confident in myself But I also realized that it should not have been something that I should’ve been nervous for,” he said, “If I go into it with a positive attitude, I was hoping that I would come out with a good story ”
Aronson described the experience as “ an affirmation” for his abilities as a cook
“It made me feel much more
confident in my abilities as a chef, my abilities to make it to something like that It was just a really great experience,” he said
One of the show’s greatest perks, Aronson said, was being able to “talk very personally to the judges ”
“They gave a lot of constructive criticism, which is really useful It’s great to get some advice from professionals,” he said
Working with fellow teen chefs was also a “ great bonding experience” for Aronson
“Being this young and having the opportunity to do something this big is what brings us together, ” he said
The filming for Thursday’s episode took place in February, and “keeping it a secret ” was one of the most challenging parts of the experience for Aronson
“I wasn ’ t even allowed to tell people that I was on the show until a month ago And obviously, this past month, now that everyone knew [I was on the show], it felt so much longer because I wasn ’ t allowed to tell anyone what happened,” he said
Following his win, Aronson donated part of his $10,000 winnings to Memorial-Sloan Kettering Hospital
“My baby cousin was diagnosed with cancer in 2013 She went through really rigorous treatment at the hospital, and they cured her It is truly wonderful and I want other people to have the same experience,” Aronson said “If there is any-

thing I can do to make that possible, I’m going to do it ”
Since arriving in Ithaca, Aronson has continued to pursue his passion in cooking, joining organizations such as Hotel Ezra Cornell, an annual student-run conference for leaders of the hospitality industry
Through his activities, Aronson has met many fellow Cornellians who are interested in cooking
“It is very nice to be able to talk to someone who is as passionate about cooking as you are It is a same-page kind of a deal,” he said
Although he lives in a dorm at Court Hall, Aronson said he has been trying his best to keep up with cooking
“I got a set of pots and pans from Wal-Mart,” he said “I only have a Swiss Army Knife, so I have been cutting stuff with that but I get by ”
During his time at Cornell, Aronson said he hopes to advance towards a career in restaurant management and ultimately “make as big an impact with food as it possibly can ”
However, while he said that “food is [his] passion and what [he] wants to do in life,” he added that “it is too soon to tell” what his next step is going to be
“I’m just going to keep eating as much as I can, keep cooking as much as I can, and just see what happens,” Aronson said

According to Beck, his father fostered his entrepreneurial spirit from a young
age
“Barr y, I don’t care what you do as long as you own it and it’s your own company, ” Beck recalled his father saying
Beck said he believes this ideology of entrepreneurialism aligned perfectly with
t h e c u l t u re o f t h e I L R school, where he spent his undergraduate years
“I think that the ILR school has a huge opportu-
nity in the future for the new ecosystem of startups a n d e n t re p re n e u r i a l i s m t h a t ’ s i n a w a v e a c

“ T h e I L R s c h o o l i s uniquely focused right now to take advantage of that [low startup cost] and really influence and impact the n e w w o r l d a t w o rk , ” h e said
Beck’s career began when he and his wife Marla cofounded Bluemercur y as an e - c o m m e r c e c o s m e t i c s b r a n d i n 1 9 9 9 By t h e 2 0 0 0 s , Bl u e m e r c u r y h a d several retail locations and was beginning to expand into cities throughout the n o r t h e a s t , a c c o rd i n g t o Beck The company eventually evolved into a publicly traded stock and made profitable returns for its shareholders, he continued

connected by the Holy See with the Pope at the forefront of that,’ I think that’s a nice reminder,” Sheena Hilton grad said
“I think listening and being present for Pope Francis’ homily was a spiritual experience and a powerful moment, ” Magdalena Zink ’18 said “Seeing people of all walks of life kneeling in prayer in the middle of a big city made me realize it’s an exciting time to be a Catholic in America right now ”
Pope Francis’ Sunday Papal Mass at the Benjamin Franklin Parkway in Philadelphia caps off his six-day trip in the U S in which he addressed Congress, spoke to the U N , visited the White House and performed Mass numerous times
on Climate: An Evening of Celebration Supporting Pope Francis's Call for Action on Climate Change” on Thursday evening
The event brought together many leaders of faith gathered from across the country to stand in solidarity to care for the environment and combat climate change Leaders at the event, which included Imam Mohammed Magid, president of the Islamic Society for North America, Sister Simone Campbell, executive director of national Catholic justice lobby Network and Senator Sheldon Whitehouse (D-R I ), pledged to encourage their communities to take action on climate change
“Seeing people of all walks of life kneeling in prayer ... made me realize it’s an exciting time to be a Catholic in America ”
Thursday evening’s event follows the Pope’s May 24 encyclical “Laudato Si,” which encourages all humans to care for creation and to address particularly the issue of climate change
To allow Catholics at Cornell to participate in Pope Francis’ events, the Cornell Catholic Community hosted a lecture and live streamed several events in celebration of Pope Francis’ arrival on U S soil
On Thursday morning, students were able to watch Pope Francis’ address to Congress through a live stream in Sage Chapel The speech, which was the first time a Pope addressed a joint session of Congress, lasted about an hour and covered topics that included climate change, immigration, the death penalty, war and poverty
The event was co-sponsored by Cornell United Religious Work and the Protestant Cooperative Ministry, according to Mazzawi
In addition to Thursday morning’s live stream, the Cornell Catholic Community also live streamed an interfaith event from the National Cathedral in Washington D C called “Coming Together in Faith
In efforts to further discussion on the topics of science and faith, the Cornell Catholic Community hosted a forum Friday evening in Anabel Taylor Hall titled “The Catholic Church and Climate Change: Teilhard, Green Popes and Laudato Si ”
The talk is a part of lecture series created by the Cornell Catholic Community, which aims to bring the sciences into dialogue with faith, according to Mazzawi
At the event, Prof Jonathan I Lunine, astronomy, introduced the series by reading part of the Pope’s recent encyclical, discussing the science behind climate change and speaking about how the call for the care of creation and for action against the degradation of the environment is not new in the Catholic Church’s social teachings

The city was reported to be reducing the school curriculum and keeping teachers from receiving proper training, demonstrators said at the event They continued that it is believed that the Igualan government had the Guerreros Unidos Cartel attack the students to suppress the protests
“Ever ything is connected, so more people should know about this because it is a global connection, not just a centralized Mexican individual event, ” said Moises Ruiz ’18, whose father and paternal grandfather were born in Mexico
While some of the demonstrators said it is hard for Cornell students to have a direct impact on reforming the Mexican government and excavating corruption, they said they believe that simply becoming educated on the topic is a step in the right direction
“With that power comes a responsibility of taking what you learned in this position and putting it [in] practice ”
J u l i a M o n t e j o ’ 1 7
“There is a correlation between the possibilities that can occur here in the United States and that are actually occurring in Mexico ”
One of the main goals of the demonstration was to bring more attention to the events that happened in Mexico as well as to events that happen around the world, according to organizers of the die-in
“Since it happened a year ago, I feel like it is starting to fade out, ” Isabel Macias ’16 said “If at least one person learns something about [the disappearance], the demonstration is successful ”
“Events like the disappearance should ignite a desire to educate yourself on how you can take your power and education to advocate for those who experience oppression,” Julia Montejo ’17 said “With that power comes a responsibility of taking what you learned in this position and putting it [in] practice
”
Education on the topic, the demonstrators hope, will push Cornell students to realize the parallels between the Mexican students and students at Cornell as well as the privileges of free speech that Cornell students can enjoy
“We see here at Cornell various movements with the health insurance controversy and with the shootings across the United States,” Ruiz said “In Mexico, students cannot do that They tried, but where are they now?”

CEDAR CIT Y, Utah (AP)
Most mornings, wildlife biologist Jessica Van Woear t and her team go to work armed with peanut butter
In upscale subdivisions and across r ural pastures in southern Utah, they use it to help trap
p r a i r i e d o g s a n d m ov e t h e m away from residents who have been under siege from the small burrowing rodents for years
Van Woear t ’ s team is doing
s o m e t h i n g t h a t w a s re l a t i v e l y rare and complicated until last year, when a federal cour t judge
r e m o v e d e n d a n g e r e d s p e c i e s protections for the Utah prairie dog
Activists say the r uling could also weaken protections for similar animals all over the countr y, and on Monday it will come before a federal appeals cour t in Denver
The Utah prairie dog is the smallest of five species and lives in underground colonies in the s o u t h e r n p a r t o f t h e s t a t e
Considered key to the ecosystem, their numbers dropped precipitously as land was cleared to make way for farming, ranching and housing and they were listed as endangered in 1973
With federal protection, the population rebounded to about 28,000 as of this spring, according to state tallies, and they were upgraded to threatened
But the animals felt anything but rare to locals who chafed under federal r ules that kept any moving or trapping of prairie dogs to a minimum
“ T h e y ’ r e r e a l l y c u t e l i t t l e things, but they really cause so

Most mornings, her technicians dressed in matching brown
traps with peanut butter in and around the rapidly growing city about 250 miles south of Salt Lake City
They check them ever y hour or so, and they’re usually not disa p p o
they’re caught, the creatures are weighed, tagged and then loaded into the back of a pickup tr uck for an hour-long drive over hills covered with sage and yellow grasses
Their ne w homes are prepared ahead of time: A system of
boxes and buried underground
The workers hold the traps over the ne w burrows, open the door and let the dogs scurr y inside
On a recent day, the browneyed animals nibble on bits of zucchini or sound their distinctive, clicking bark to their ne w neighbors on public land about 25 miles outside of Cedar City
It's different than the suburban b u r r o w s t h e y ’ v e l e f t b e h i n d , higher and drier, with different food and predators
They’ve caught about 2,500 a n i m a l s s o f a r t h i s s u m m e r, turning them loose in a series of similar sites
The workers leave food and water and tr y to keep the highly social animals together to ease the transition, but many of them won ’ t sur vive in the ne w environment After a year, just 10 to 15 percent of the creatures typically remain at the relocation sites, said Keith Day, a state wildlife biologist who oversees t h e p r a i r i e d o g p r o g r a m
Though some leave, many die “ When you pick an animal up out of its natural setting and you move it to a ne w location you can expect a fairly high mortality rate, ” Day said Still, he said that trapping an animal and m ov i n g i t i s b

As I filed into Bailey Hall this past Saturday night to see CUPB’s Broad City Live!, it dawned on me that I had absolutely no idea what Abbi Jacobsen and Ilana Glazer were actually going to do Stand-up? Give a lecture about greatness? Read an episode script? A lip-sync routine?
To be honest, it didn’t really matter to me Like most
brought them to Amy Poehler, who would become the executive producer of their show and helped them get the show sold to Comedy Central (they joked that they decided against Woody Allen; “He’d be like ‘it’s ’ cause you ’ re in love with me’”)
Glazer and Jacobsen went on to answer Luzmore’s question about the quality of Broad City’ s cast, citing the fact that the cast is largely comprised of their close friends, and that that kind of community and comradery in a cast gives it a comfortability and playfulness irreplicable with a randomly assembled cast

f o l k s o n c a m p u s w h o a t t e n d e d , I w a s g ro t e s q u e l y starstruck, and mainly just wanted to revel in the presence of my favorite women on, and making, television and maybe hear the words “ yas qween ” uttered in real life
But what did they do on Saturday night? They sat down on the stage and were Broad City Which is to say, they were themselves Which is to say they were uproariously funny, buoyantly charming and energetically unpretentious but also intensely thoughtful and sincere Also if I may go so far as to assume happy to be hosted and pleased to engage with the crowd
A bit of context: Ilana Glazer and Abbi Jacobsen, are the creators, head writers and stars of the sitcom Broad City, which is going into it’s third season on Comedy Central The show chronicles the anti-glamour of the lives of hapless, stoned, slacking and largely autobiographical duo, Abbi Abrams and Ilana Wexler, who deal with all the typical trials of urban young adulthood However, Broad City has attracted a cult fan base around its powerful but effortless rejection of familiar TV narratives of young women in the city, and of female friendship itself It’s a tired scene, but Jacobsen and Glazer are bringing desperately needed joy, celebration and hilarious unsexiness to this telvision schematic
Their visit to Bailey Hall took the form of a conversational interview with Michael Luzmore ’17, Executive Chair of CUPB and a Q&A session Ithaca references (Moosewood, of course) received predictable cheers, and Luzmore began the conversation by asking for Jacobsen and Glazer’s origin story
The two women met nine years ago when they both joined the Upright Citizens Brigade (the comedy troupe where the pair got their start), ending up in the same improv practice group, called Secret Promise Circle (“Comedy group names are worse than indie bands” explains Ilana ) They were losing money doing improv “Our parents are like, what the fuck are you doing?” So the pair looked to create something tangible, and came to the idea of making a web series based on their own experiences
After getting some P R , they began looking for a celebrity guest to bring on the show, and a U C B friend
L a t e r, a f t e r Luzmore noted o n e o f h i s favorite episodes for the fact that i
w
n ’ t d
g t o women, Glazer e x p l a i n e d t h a t she finds it sad that people who watch the show are so shocked that “it doesn’t h a t e w o m e n ” Sh e f i n d s t h i s
w i t h m u c h o f the praise Broad Ci t y re c e i ve s ; that the bar is so pathetically low f o r s h ow s t o treat female relat i o n s h i p s a n d p ro b l e m s w i t h
complexity and dignity that she and Jacobsen get applauded for doing what they see as natural and real Glazer exclaimed, “People are like, ‘Can you believe that they’re friends who build each other up?’”
They discussed the sexual politic of the show, expressing that they hope to combat the invisibility of female pleasure on screen “We just had our first blow job in the third season, but we get eaten out all the time!” Glazer said delightedly, to thunderous applause
They also revealed the bizarre censorship issues they’ve run into with Broad City, like that they had to specifically request coloration in the blur to show pubic hair, for one scene where Ilana is in a dressing room, and that something like “suck a dick” is left uncensored while “ out, ” in the phrase “eating out ” must be bleeped out
Jacobsen and Glazer explained that a lot of things they never meant to be political in the show end up creating controversy This was later evidenced during the Q&A w h e n
m
-
n e a s k e d
b o u t t h e meaning of t h e d r u g c u l t u re o n the show, to which they e x p l
the show, it
a part of their experiences
included city living tips, a bra catapulted onstage, a student dressed as Bingo Bronson and a round of “Fuck, marry, kill,” in which Jacobsen and Glazer agreed: fuck Julia Lewis-Dreyfus, marry Amy Poehler, and apologetically kill Tina Fey (but qualified they would ensure Fey died in the funniest possible way and promised to take care of her family)
As the final question, a student asked if the comedians ever missed doing stand up Glazer answered emphatically that she did, and felt extremely disconnected from the improv and standup scene of U C B ; sometimes “like a phony ” The questioner sheepishly suggested they do some improv there and then After some exchanged “uh-ok-wedoing-this” looks, Glazer and Jacobsen agreed they were “down,” cleared the chairs and proceeded to invite five students (including the bra-thrower) up onto the stage to do a scene with them The crowd watched in somewhat euphoric shock, as an only mildly cringe-worthy improv scene ensued, involving kale, the Pope and some nebulous holocaust humor Afterwards, the crowd still in shock, the pair walked off the stage, smiling and waving
The natural chemistry and comfort of the duo was unfakeable Broad City is a show driven by their characters’ friendship; a glorious female confederacy between women who don’t compete but rather support and adore with each other and on Saturday it became stunningly clear that this relationship is not fictional Their intimacy with each other on stage made everyone in the crowd feel just as comfortable It seemed that not a scripted platitude or back-pocket line was uttered the entire evening Their interplay and dialogue finishing each other’s stories, conferring in whispers away from the mics on whether or not to reveal a season 3 spoiler, clarifying each other’s points and quite often making the other burst out laughing was by far the greatest joy of the evening
However, I’ll take back what I said before Glazer and Jacobsen both are and are not their television selves They incarnated the unruly, self-effacing Millenial sensibility that has attracted legions of viewers to their show, but I was taken aback at their evident wisdom and maturity, their astute and powerful awareness of themselves and their position in the world and their generation But they had a way of giving advice and telling stories without sounding self-indulgent or patronizing, or ever assuming that they had all the answers Also, you know, they were really fucking funny I left Bailey on Saturday exhilarated by what Glazer and Jacobson had shared; but also simply by who they were as people, as women, as comedians and as a presence in entertainment industry I’m not quite sure what they and my exhilaration mean in the greater scheme of things just yet But damn, it feels good

Letter to the Editor
Editor’s Note: The following is a response to the open letter published in The Sun on September 25th:
To C o r
Thank you for your September 18 open letter to me concerning freedom of expression on our campus I welcome this opportunity to make clear my thoughts on this critical issue
As a university, we support an environment where all views can be heard, tested and debated, and we encourage faculty and students to be active in policies and issues that affect our campus, the nation, and the world and to make their views known But each of us has a responsibility to exercise our freedom of expression in a way that does not impede the university’s educational and research mission, nor infringe on the ability of others in our community to exercise their freedom of expression
I re c e n t l y a d
C o d e o f C o n d u c t , w h i c h e x i s t s t o s u p p o r t C o r n e l l’s e d u c a t i o n a l a n d re s e a rc h m i ss i o n s w h i l e s a f e g u a rd i
(http://eventplanning cornell edu/outdoor-events cfm)
I also appreciate the work done by the Cornell University Police Department and its officers who protect our students and, indeed, all of us ever y day, often under difficult circumstances They are dedicated to ensuring that our campus community is safe and able to function at the highest levels of excellence
Indoor demonstrations, such as sit-ins, continue to be governed by the Campus Code of Conduct, which states that the academic and administrative work of the university must be allowed to operate unhindered at all times Classrooms, libraries, laboratories, living units and faculty and administrative offices are dedicated to specific purposes, which the university must be free to pursue without disruption As the Code states, “ The law of trespass and the right of free speech are not mutually exclusive and, indeed, have always coexisted in our legal system ”
My approach going for ward will be to rely on the Campus Code in response to allegations of student misconduct, while understanding the dual reality that students should spend their college years exploring and testing boundaries and that administrators must strive to calibrate their responses to student expression
Ours is a campus atmosphere where robust debate and a discussion of all views even those with which some may disagree can flourish That is our heritage, as established by our founders 150 years ago, and that will remain our guiding principle
Thank you again for reaching out to me

like Taylor Swift **queue dramatic background music ** Taylor Swift is stunning, super talented and had made millions of dollars before her 20th birthday Believe me, I am jealous of Taylor Swift but that isn’t why I don't like her I don’t like Taylor Swift because she has used her clout to oppose free-information at least in terms of music
Free-information is the idea that all information should be unrestrictedly distributed at no cost It is a radically different way to think about content Some argue that if content is free, people won ’ t create content I disagree Directly paying for content isn’t the only way to incentivize people to create it It may be challenging, but we can design new incentives for content creators like ads and streaming
If you think incentives are the issue, you are missing the point
There is no cost to distributing content anymore The internet has removed most of the obstacles involved with
The possibility of free i n f o r m a t i o n i s t h e internet’s ultimate legacy The extent to which we embrace free information will define our relationship with the web
pensating artists aren ’ t so bad I would argue artists do better on streaming services Every time you listen to a song on Spotify, Spotify pays the artists 2 cents In comparison, an artist receives 10 cents for a 1 dollar song bought on itunes In other words, if you listen to a song more than 5 times on Spotify, the artist gets more money than if you buy it on itunes
At some level, free information is better for artists I am perfectly happy to support musicians However, I have a limited budget for music, and I think musicians would prefer that I spend it on concert tickets rather than albums When fans buy concert tickets, artists pocket nearly all of that money When fans buy albums, they see less than 10 percent of that revenue For new artists sharing their music is more valuable than the royalties from records
A t s o m e l e v e l , f r e e i n f o r m a t
Those who support the traditional model of paying for albums need a wake up call The main reason we pay for albums is to support record companies Artists make 75-90 percent of their income from performing They pocket pennies from each song they sell on albums Artists earn about 2 dollars from the price of a 15 dollar album
Because of the internet, artists don’t need record labels to share their music Last year ' s Slope Day headliner, Chance the Rapper, started his music career by dropping a free mixtape In the past, the costs of distributing music were high Artist needed record companies to recoup those costs Today, those costs don't exist Record labels can add value through producers and agents but not through manufacturing and distributing records
Record labels are dying 10 years ago, recorded music was a 15 billion dollar industry; now it is a 7 billion dollar industry People aren ' t listening to less music they are streaming it and down loading it illegally Just like cars replaced horse and buggy at the turn of the century, records are being replaced by digital music today
Directly paying for content isn’t the only way to incentivize people to create content The alternative models for com-
Taylor Swift wrote an article in the WSJ a b o u t h ow p e o p l e would pay for albums to support up and coming artists if they love music Plenty of people love music myself included But plenty of people who love music can ’ t afford it It seems p e r ve r s e t h a t m u s i c costs nothing to distribute, yet we keep it from p e o p l e Mo re ove r, artists just starting out shouldn’t worry about p e n n i e s i n roy a l t i e s They should be getting their music out there and selling tickets Taylor Swift opposes free-information because it serves her interests Taylor Swift is more than an artist she is a brand Taylor Swift’s music is part of that brand and downloading her music for free diminishes her brand This isn’t the only eyebrow raising move Taylor Swift made to protect her brand She tried patenting the words “Love Love Love” and the year “1989 ” Free information will define our relationship with the web It affects all content-driven industries It isn’t clear how to incentivize content creators if individuals aren ’ t paying for content However, that doesn't mean we shouldn't figure out alternative ways to incentivize content creators The internet has removed most of the obstacles associated with distributing content We should should embrace that reality instead of resisting it That’s my schtick and I’m sticking to it! Stay tuned alternating Mondays for more

Bowl win this past winter, is looking as good as ever and is one touchdown pass away from 400 for his career On the opposite spectrum, rookie Marcus Mariota of the Tennessee Titans threw four touchdowns and no interceptions in his first game in the NFL against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in week one
Aaron Rodgers of the Green Bay Packers was as solid as ever and currently ranks No 4 in the NFL for touchdowns and second for completion percentage One quarterback that was looking decent heading into week two, but faltered, is Andrew Luck of the Indianapolis Colts He unfortunately just racked up the worst start of his NFL career The Colts are currently 0-2 and Luck leads the NFL with six turnovers He has only a 54 7 percentage completion on his passes, and his quarterback ranking, 58 9, is dead last in the league Luck acknowledged his rough start, speaking to the press on Wednesday about his need for improvement
Another surprise this week has been the Cleveland Browns’ decision to bench Johnny Manziel for week three Manziel had a good win this last week, throwing two long touchdown passes to help the Browns beat Tennessee, 28-14 However, in an interview with ESPN on Wednesday, Browns head coach Mike Pettine said Manziel is “making great strides” but he wanted to see Josh McCown out on the field this yesterday against the Raiders McCown was just cleared this week after passing the NFL’s concussion protocol, and Pettine said that he has “earned the right to be our starting quarterback ”
There are also a slew of quarterbacks currently out due to injuries Because of Tony Romo’s collarbone injury last game, the Cowboys picked up back-up quarterback Matt Cassel in a trade from the Buffalo Bills on Tuesday However, Brandon Weeden, the backup that the Cowboys already had in place, was set to start in yesterday’s game against the Falcons Weedon has only has one career starting game, (a loss last year)
The Bears are also dealing with an injury to their quarterback, with Jay Cutler out for a hamstring and the bears having to now rely on backup quarterback Jimmy Clausen With the Bears at 0-2 and facing the Seahawks (although they just suffered a loss against the Packers), they really could be in trouble Clausen has a record of 1-10 as a starter in the NFL, and finished his 2010 rookie year with a 52 5 completion percentage and only three touchdowns and nine interceptions His only game with the Bears was last year in week 16 and he made two touchdowns, but the Bears still suffered a loss
Drew Brees of the New Orleans Saints is also out after injuring his shoulder last week, with Luke McCown filling in for him against the Carolina Panthers yesterday Despite his last NFL start, including six completions and four interceptions in a loss against the Jets in 2011, he has had substantial time to learn and grow with the team and might actually give the Saints a shot at winning
All in all, there have been plenty of shake-ups in these first weeks and it looks to be another exciting season in the NFL (even if the Bears are probably doomed)

FOXBOROUGH, Mass (AP) Tom Brady and Stephen Gostkowksi picked up some more milestones The New England Patriots picked up another lopsided win Brady threw for two touchdowns, including the 400th of his career, to help the defending Super Bowl champions run away from the Jacksonville Jaguars for a 51-17 victor y on Sunday LeGarrette Blount had three 1-yard touchdown runs, and Gostkowski delivered the extra point on all six New England TDs to run his streak to an NFL record 425 in a row
“ That takes a lot of games, a lot of snaps to do that That’s certainly a tribute to both of them, the durability, longevity, consistent
p r o d u c t i o n t h e y ’ v e h a d , ” c o a c h B i l l Belichick said
“ They had a good day, as they’ve had in many, many days throughout their career I feel really fortunate to have those guys on my team ” After a summer dominated by talk of deflated footballs, the Patriots (3-0) opened with victories over Pittsburgh and Buffalo and then proved they weren ’ t looking past t h e ov e r
became the fourth quarterback in NFL histor y to throw for 400 touchdowns, and he added his 401st, a 13-yard pass to Keshawn Martin late in the third quarter
By that time, it was 37-10, fans were tr ying to beat traffic on Route 1, and the Patriots were heading into their bye week with a perfect record
And when it was over, Brady had completed 33 of 42 passes for 358 yards while leading New England to scores on all nine of his drives (Backup Jimmy Garoppolo came in to kneel down and run out the clock on the final possession )
“I don’t care whether we throw it in or run it in,” Brady said “As long as we ’ re scoring points and winning, it’s fun for me ”
Rob Gronkowski caught four passes for 101 yards for the Patriots Blount ran for 78 yards Julian Edelman caught eight passes for 85 yards Gostkowski, who has led the NFL in points for each of the past three seasons, added three field goals
It was the most points ever allowed by the Jaguars (1-2), who had two injured defensive backs inactive for the game and lost three more during it
By
Thompson who wasn ’ t drafted out of college and has been cut six times in two seasons was playing safety Nick Marshall, an undrafted rookie who played quarterback at Auburn, was at cornerback
“It’s the hardest thing to do We only had three safeties that were active and two of them got hurt That means a corner is going to play safety,” cornerback Davon House said “ You are going to play safety and you ain’t never even practiced that position? That’s tough man ”
Blake Bortles finished 17 for 33 for 242 yards, with two touchdowns and an interception Allen Robinson had nine catches for 68 yards, but the Jaguars gained just 57 yards on 20 running plays
Jacksonville was also flagged seven times for 114 yards, including back-to-back pass interference penalties in the third quarter
The first cost the Jaguars 52 yards; the second negated an interception and 82-yard return, instead putting the Patriots on the Jacksonville 1
Blount punched it in from there to make it 30-3

It happened again The Cornell football team gave up 17 unanswered points to Yale in the fourth quarter on Saturday, allowing the Bulldogs to complete an impressive comeback against the Red With the loss, Cornell dropped to 0-2 and 0-1 in Ivy play
The Red appeared dominant in the first three quarters, with the team controlling the board for the majority of the first half Senior running back Luke Hagy had his fifth straight game with more than 100 rushing yards, finishing the day with 123 yards on the ground a rushing touchdown
The Bulldogs, however, prevented Hagy from doing much of anything in the second half Junior Robert Somborn had a solid day under center, completing 20 of 30 passes with three touchdowns through the air and one interception
However, for the second straight week, the Achilles’ heel for the Red came in their special teams ’ play Freshman kicker Zach Mays had one extra point blocked, another go wide of the goal post and a field goal attempt blocked Junior punt returner Luis Uceta muffed a punt early in the third quarter that set up the Bulldogs on the Cornell 40 yard line and ultimately lead to a field goal
“ That’s an area of our team that needs to step up and play better for us, ” said head coach David Archer ’05 “It’s as simple as that It’s not any one guy never just one play that determines the outcome of a game so it’s not a blame game in that way on one person It’s all of us collectively as a team and all of us involved in special teams
[need] to raise our level of performance and raise our level of expectation and prepare extra hard this week because we simply can ’ t afford to keep making miscues like that ”
However, the big momentum shifter came at the end of the first half The Cornell kickoff team allowed Yale kick
While it did not feel like a game changer at the time, Archer said the run back and t
momentum “I had an undying confidence that we were going to win the game, ” Archer said “However, many plays that they were going
Archer said he will review the kicking situation and would not commit to Mays as the kicker for the Red moving for ward “ We’re going to review the film and talk to the staff because it’s more than just the kicker,” Archer said “I do know that our special teams need to raise their level of play ”
In the last two weeks, the Red has shown that they can keep up w i t h m o s t t e a m s Bucknell was picked to


returner Jamal Locke to return a ball 84 yards to the Red six-yard-line with a little over 40 seconds left in the half after a touchdown pass from Somborn to sophomore wideout Collin Shaw Following a touchdown pass from Yale quar terback Morgan Roberts to Ross Dr wal, the Red went into the locker room with a 26-13 lead at the half
to make, I just felt like we were going to make one more than they would to win Certainly not what we wanted and we have to look at the tape to see specifically what happened there, but they were able to crease us on the right side of our kickoff coverage and we have to work on that and get better at it That turned out to be a critical play because they scored off of it ”

The Cornell sprint football team trailed to Franklin Pierce this weekend at halftime, 15-7 Head coach Bart Guccia took his team and told his players to treat the second half like a completely new game
“Coach Guccia’s theme for the entire year [has been] finishing,” said junior linebacker Chris D’Ambrosio “You put up points and the defense doesn’t let up any points ”
D’Ambrosio had six unassisted tackles, eight assisted tackles and two sacks in a great defensive game for the Red While the team struggled in the first s o o w s s “ w M d
win “ T h e d e f e n s e w a s p l a y i n g g re a t throughout the first half [and] actually scored seven points,” he said “In the second half the biggest thing was that the offense started to click ”
In the third, junior quarterback Rob Pannullo threw a 38-yard touchdown pass to senior wide receiver Trevor Marrero to complete the Red’s first possession that quarter Pannullo also ran for 22 yards into the end zone later on in the third quarter The Red went into the fourth quarter up 21-15

Patriot League while Yale was picked to finish third in the Ivy League Last season, the Red lost to Bucknell and Yale by a total score of 71-20 This season, the Red has lost by a total of 52-40 W
Cornell and its opponents, the Red still needs to take that next step and make the one or two plays that flip a game from a loss to a win Getting over that hump will be Archer’s biggest task yet “ We’re going to approach that the same way from where we were in November to where we are now and all of the growth that has happened,” Archer said “You can ’ t simulate the fourth quarter of a football game in practice The more game experience we get and the more time we have to learn the situation, the more you can focus on the smaller details When the moment gets big, that’s when you focus on the smallest details and executing and doing your job ”

B r e a k d o w n
Ostrander who replaced Pannullo late in the game finished off the Red’s 36-15 victory in the fourth quarter
“As a team, our mentality is that we need to get the job done, at the end of the day, and Coach Guccia has done a really good job ingraining that in the team ’ s psyche,” Minsky said “Because we ’ ve been practicing finishing all year we were able to do it during the game ”
This weekend, the Red will take on Army West Point on Schoellkopf, hoping to carry the positive momentum from the first two games into defeating this very strong team on home turf The Red lost 49-7 last year against Army and last beat the Mules in 2010
The scoring barrage did not stop in the third quarter A 14-yard touchdown run from junior running b k K i f re s h m a n q u a r t e r b a c k C o n n o r

“They’re a great team but we ’ re going to prepare for them like we did for the last two teams, ” Minsky said “We’re going to try and execute as close to perfectly as possible in practice so we ’ re able to do it in the game ”
Each game in a sprint football season is equally important, and it is essential the Red treat this game like any other, despite Army’s prowess
“We’re going to treat this like any other game, ” D’Ambrosio said “The only difference is that army has a very high-tempo, fast-paced offense We’re going to have to be in the best condition that we’ll have to be in all season to play this team ”

already started to get interesting One of the most notable storylines and usually the most influential position for a team ’ s playoff chances is the starting quarterback Even though it is still early in the season, there
have already been some change-ups in starting quarterbacks for a lot of teams, some out of necessity due to injuries and some as a result of coaching decisions that have caused a few raised eyebrows
As always, some quarterbacks have already shown their strengths early and have their fans safely convinced that they’ll go far this season, while others have had disappointing starts and are starting to lose confidence from the fans Here’s a brief look at how some of the quarterbacks are faring so far this season
The quarterbacks that already look strong for the season are not surprising Tom Brady, for one, coming off of the Patriots’ Super Q u a r t e r b a c k
