Smithfield Canyon road closed for repair work Smithfield Canyon Road (Forest Service Road #20049) will be closed to all uses starting Nov. 4 and may be closed up to 45 days. The purpose for the closure is to provide for public safety while construction crews and equipment are replacing the bridge on the Smithfield Canyon road. If the bridge replacement is completed before Dec. 1, the road will be open for use. As of Dec. 1, the seasonal road closure will be in effect until next spring. The closure will begin approximately 0.15 miles from the Forest boundary on the Smithfield Canyon Road (Forest Service Road #20049) to the Smithfield Canyon Trailhead. Recreationists hiking from Tony Grove to Smithfield Canyon will not be allowed to exit through Smithfield Canyon during the road closure.

The Police Blotter Friday, Oct. 25 • USU Police received a report from the Living Learning Center about missing mail. An investigation is continuing. • USU Police responded to Richards Hall on a fire alarm. An individual was using hair spray too close to the detector. The alarm was reset. Saturday, Oct. 26 • An individual reported to the police after she filled her car with gas at the motorpool, she accidentally drove away with the hose still attached to the gas nozzle on her car. • USU Police observed two females having trouble walking at the howl. They were intoxicated and underage. Both were given MIP Alcohol citations and released to a sober individual. • USU Police observed an individual at the Howl without a wristband. Howl staff asked him to leave and when he didn’t police noticed he’d been consuming alcohol. He gave police a fake age when asked who he was. After further investigation, he
Construction From Page 1 build the road in the way they wanted. Saunders said relocating those residents and obtaining the homes was a smooth process. Initial construction began with the first phase in 2010 and ended in 2011. The second phase ran from 2012 to the present. “We finished a month ahead of schedule and way under budget,” Saunders said. “I think the original budget was $70 million and the budget right now is $60 million.” When the City of Logan costs are added to the UDOT budget, the total project cost an estimated $72 million.

The subject was cited with disorderly conduct. Sunday, Oct. 27 • USU Police responded to a possible domestic dispute at the University Inn. When they arrived, the female subject had left and was locating sleeping in a friend’s car. She was cited for MIP Alcohol. • USU Police responded to the Mountain View tower parking lot on a report of a broken window. The driver’s side window was broken by an unknown object. There were no items taken from the vehicle and it’s unknown who broke the window. Police helped the individual remove glass from the vehicle. Monday, Oct. 28 • An individual filed a complaint with USU Police. The individual gave his roommate money and the roommate accused the complainant of taking it back, which he denied.
The hope of UDOT was to make 1000 West a byway, a more effective road for residents to travel on in order to divert traffic from Main Street. “I grew up in Cache Valley,” Saunders said. “I’ve driven on 10th West my whole life. It was a nice road, but not really useful. Now it’ll be truly useful. It’s wide, it’s safe, it’s designed for higher speeds than you’re going to get on Main Street.” Construction workers, contractors and city officials echoed the appreciation of the community and businesses involved. “I know that we’ve affected your business, slowed down the process of trying to make a buck,” Watts said. “But I can truly tell you that I look at this road and for what has happened here, for what you’ve lost through

The individual informed the police the suspect sent her a fraudulent check for $1,325.00 more than what the books were worth. The suspect wanted the individual to cash the check and distribute it to other establishments. Police informed the individual she would be liable for money if the check was cashed. Tuesday, Oct. 29

construction, you’ll gain it back tenfold as we move ahead with what the valley has in the future.” Both construction companies involved, Staker Parson and Ralph L. Wadsworth Construction, said the project was unique because of the cooperation of the communities. “This was a pretty unique project for us in that the businesses... weren’t against us,” said Brandon Squire from Ralph Wadsworth Construction. “They came together and they helped us. They understood that we needed to come in here, get things done and get out of their hair.” Though the project was made easier by help and cooperation, Logan city public works director Mark Nielsen said it wasn’t an easy process. “It was a painful process, it always is,” Nielsen said. “We had some lousy
infrastructure in the road. We had a lot of things that needed replaced, and we didn’t have a lot of time in order to prepare and put money aside, so it’s been an interesting process over the last five years.” Shane Marshall, UDOT deputy director, admired the usefulness of the road to the community. “It’s a pretty unique facility,” Marshall said. “It’s not just a road. It’s something the community can really get behind. Really, it’s an asset to this community and something that will be an economic driver for this community for many years to come. We didn’t build a road, we built a facility that really can accommodate growth out here.”

Moeller said he has heard a lot of positive feedback about the marathon and hopes that it can continue for next year. d “There might be a chance that we don’t do this again next d year due to funding,” Moeller said. “The students and I really e enjoyed this experience. We might do this again even if it won’t an official class.” t be When the marathon was over, the smell of empty soda cans 0 filled the room as the gamers started to pack up and head e home. But the experience was unlike any other, said Rob e Smiley, a sophomore majoring in biological engineering. - “At first, playing games for 24 straight hours seemed kind of e daunting,” Smiley said. “But in the end, it was pretty cool to do s something like this for a great cause.” Students can learn more about the nationwide “Gaming for Good” effort by visiting www.extra-life.org.

Wind From Page 1 in 2012 in Washington, D.C. on his economics research. Stafford said they were proud of both of the students and their accomplishments. They adopted a practical business approach for wind energy, focusing economics rather than environmental advantages, which don’t resonate well with legislators, Hartman said. She said wind prices are stable, and they hope to communicate the fact renewable energy is going to create jobs in the future. “We want people to realize this is not just green issue,” Stafford said. “This is energy security and economic development.” He also said they tried to portray wind energy as a the bipartisan effort it is, embraced by both Republicans and Democrats. Initially, Stafford and Hartman’s research began in 1995 with case studies in real life situations. They looked at what businesses did to make existing practice more sustainable and looked at next level of change. “How can entire industries be started around sustainability initiatives?” Hartman asked. They chose to initiate a project in Utah from the ground up. Wind energy became their focus. “We need to use marketing for consumer adoption of ideas,” Stafford said. The professors worked with GreenTech Film’s Michelle Nunez to produce the documentaries. They procured funding and resources, outlined the films and arranged interviews. The team had hundreds of hours of footage, all condensed to a 30 min. documentary finished this summer, Hartman said. There are currently two areas in Utah which have adopted the renewable energy initiative. One is in Millford, a 300-megawatt project, and the other is in San Juan County,
which has three projects. “Wind Rising” focused on the Spanish Fork project, which took four years to complete. Since its release in 2009, the documentary screened 70 different venues with the professors hosting question and answer sessions and more than 150 times total, from Hawaii to Vermont, where protesters attended, according to Stafford. Hartman said the hardest part of this process was thinking the project was going to be implemented, and then something else would fall through. Despite this, she is always encouraged by the way people can resolve issues. “We don’t always have to have a direct benefit, but we do this because there is a level of social value,” Hartman said. This has been a major research project for Huntsman School of Business, and the professors said they hope “Scaling Wind” will reach the people and legislators of Utah. – amanda.grover12@gmail.com

Schaefer said she is currently working to publish a book about Amada’s life, and her influential role in the lives of so many people. “I can only use Amada as an example of what the medicine teachers and what the medicine is all about,” she said. “She was the most loving person — unconditional love for everybody. I think that’s what peyote teaches.” Bonnie Glass-Coffin, a professor of anthropology and religious studies at USU, said Schaefer’s perspective and study of the religion is respectful, while celebrating and protecting of its diversity. “It’s a topic that’s important for us to know about, as being worthy of respect,” she said. “The study of Ms. Cardenas, the oral history of a selfless woman who brought people together and created an umbrella of peace, is a story that needs to be told.”
Schaefer is the co-director of the Valene L. Smith Museum of Anthropology at California State University Chico. Her visit was part of the Anthropology Lecture Series, hosted by the anthropology museum located in Old Main. Prairie Fox, a junior majoring in anthropology and political science, said she likes that the invited speakers are professors from out of state, bringing new perspectives from their field. “It allows us to have people talk about things we really don’t address here,” said Fox, using Schaefer as an example. “Everyone talks about peyote as a bad thing, and as a drug...She discussed the more human and religious side of it.” The next lecture will be 6 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 22. All lectures are free and open to the public.

“As a young female, it’s comforting to know that every species has to do this, that every species has to make sacrifices for their young,” Larsen said. Birds nests play a central role in Brundage’s work as well, which focuses mostly on the mother’s role as a homemaker. “I have a lot of pieces about nesting and gathering things around you to make a home,” Brundage said. “Both women and birds do a lot, gathering and organizing all these things and making them exist together.” To present the complexity she found in the theme of the homemaker, Brundage, who now teaches art at two Cache Valley elementary schools, created a variety of wood prints, in which an image is carved into a block of wood, which then has its surface rolled with ink and is run through a printing press to transfer the image onto paper. Brundage said she enjoyed using a variety of different visual resources, textures and colors for the evocation of “conflicting feelings” when viewed. “I enjoy taking a lot of different things, putting them together and

around the outskirts of the field to watch the contestants prove their trebuchet design to be superior. The students were allowed to throw a few pumpkins before the formal competitions began, including pumpkins stuffed full with candy. These pumpkins were launched out into the field, and kids were allowed to run out and collect candy on the grass. Some trebuchets made pumpkins fly all the way down the field, while others had much more trouble and didn’t fly very far.
Aggiette Savannah Lancaster was crowned Miss Utah Teen USA on Oct. 26 at the Val A. Browning Center for the Performing Arts in Ogden. Lancaster will go on to compete in the Miss Teen USA Pageant July 2014 in the Bahamas. To become a contestant in the Miss Utah Teen USA Pageant, young women ages 14-18 send in an application. If they are accepted, they are sent a letter inviting them to compete. Contestants must be residents of Utah or fulltime students for the fall semester and can never have been pregnant or married. The application includes the contestant’s job, GPA, a little bit about them and why they think they would be a great titleholder. The contestants of the Miss Utah Teen USA Pageant were judged in three categories; swimwear, to show a contestant’s physical fitness; evening gown, to display her poise, grace and professionalism; and a private interview. All 25 contestants competed in preliminary rounds in each of these categories and then the top semifinalists were chosen to continue on. Each of these semifinalists competed in swimwear and evening gown in the next round, and the top five contestants were chosen to move on to the finals. In the finals, each contestant answered an on-stage interview question, and the winner was chosen from among them and crowned. Lancaster has competed in many pageants since she was in high school and has been very successful. She won her first title of Miss Drill while still in high school and went on to win Miss Drill Utah, Miss Drill USA and Miss Drill International. “Some people approached me and told me, ‘You would be good at it,’ and just doing the smaller ones in high school just kind of brought me to this point, and they just brought a lot of opportunities that I never would have had if I didn’t do them; just a lot of open doors through pageants,” Lancaster said. Lancaster was sponsored by the Miss Weber County Pageant to compete at the Miss Utah Pageant, a pageant in the Miss America circuit. She was the first runner-up to Miss Utah 2013 Ciera Pekarcik and was the preliminary talent competition winner. After her success in the Miss America circuit, Lancaster decided to apply for the Miss Utah Teen USA Pageant, which is also part of the Miss USA circuit. Some of the biggest differences between these two circuits are that the

One of the teams from USU, the Pumpkin Decimators, explained the hard work they put into building their trebuchet. It required them to find a sponsor to help pay for supplies, and they built the 20-foot trebuchet without any professional help. With all the work students put into their machines, they look forward to the competition each year. “Sometimes I wonder why I have so much difficult homework all the time, and then I get to do fun things like this, and it reminds me why I want to be an engineer,” said Taylor Harman, a sophomore majoring in mechanical engineering and part of team Pumpkin Decimator.

Lancaster believes all pageants are great opportunities for the girls who compete in them, opening doors and opportunities otherwise closed to these young women. “My favorite part is definitely everything that happens behind the scenes,” she said. “I mean the pageant itself was great, the competition was great and fun but getting to know, you know, 50 other girls from around the state, making connections with people you go way back with, and it’s just kind of cool to get to know everybody. I got really close with a few girls, and it’s great still keeping in touch with them.” As Miss Teen Utah USA, Lancaster will work closely with the dress company Cherry Hill and do a lot of modeling work and photo shoots. She will also volunteer with Best Friends Animal Society and Best Buddies, a program for disabled children. Lancaster is a freshman in her first semester at USU and is majoring in human movement science with an emphasis in pre physical therapy.

Sister act: Flynns fuel each other on field 4By Jeff Dahdah assistant sports editor
For the first time in five years, sisters Jennifer and Katie Flynn shared a practice field, a bench, and a team this season. The last time the two did this, they won a championship for Juan Diego High School in 2008. That was Jennifer’s senior year. Now she’s is in her senior year again, only this time with the Aggies, and right by her side is her younger sister Katie. The only snag: Katie wasn’t allowed to play this year. Upon graduating high school, Katie went to Idaho State for a year. However, she found herself drawn to Logan for numerous reasons. So when she transferred to USU, she had to sit out a season because of NCAA transfer rules. “I just wanted to be closer to my family and I love Logan, I think it’s beautiful,” Katie said. “It’s been fun to be able to practice with my sister and be closer to her because she is my best friend.” Jennifer had a suspicion that she might have influenced her sister’s decision to transfer. “She was thinking about coming here a couple of years ago, but I hope I had some influence,” Jennifer said. “I was just like, ‘Katie, you should come hang out with me, you should come live with me,’ and so I hope I had some influence. I never made her choose though.” Whatever the reason, Katie

found her way to USU — just in time to practice and support her sister through her senior season with the Aggies. Jennifer was second team allWAC in her junior season and earned first team all-Mountain West Conference this year. With Jennifer leaving after this season,
the other Flynn will seemingly have big shoes to fill. However, USU head coach Heather Cairns doesn’t see it that way. “They are very different players,” Cairns said. “I expect different things out of them. It’ll be great to have her in preseason and
see where she fits in. They are sisters, but they are different players, so we treat them as individuals.” Jennifer echoed Cairns’ observation about the types of players they both are. “We’re have a very different style of play,” Jennifer said. “She’s very calm and I’m kind of spastic
and aggressive. I think she’ll do great stuff next year.” Jennifer’s senior season was one plagued by injuries, and she lost significant playing time because of it. She still had a stellar year despite the injuries, but she said the presence of her sister was a large part of her keeping composure. “She was my constant support,” Jennifer said. “She was always there to pick me up and be my support. I relied on her a lot.” The sisters call each other their best friends and even shared a room together this year. Despite never seeing game time together, they both enjoyed their time on the practice field with each other. “We read each other very well, so it’s a lot of fun when we get to play together,” Katie said. “It’s been fun.” “I loved practicing with her,” Jennifer said. “She compliments me very well, so it was really fun to see that we can still play together, even though we haven’t really played together in a while.” Katie attributes much of her development as a soccer player to her older sister. “She has been a big influence in my career,” Katie said. “She has taught me a lot and has been very motivating and helpful. She teaches me and always pushes me.” Jennifer has noticed a difference in how her younger sister plays since the last time they were on the same team.
“She has developed a lot more,” Jennifer said. “She is more confident in how she plays now.” It has been refreshing for both Jennifer and Katie to wear the same colors for one more year, but next year Katie will be playing without her sister again. However, Katie is prepared. “I’ve made a lot of friends and I’ve learned a lot from everybody. We’ve gotten close like a family, we’re like sisters,” Katie said about the rest of the team. “I wish I could play with Jenn one more year, but it will be fun, and we’ll do well.” Jennifer has been a staple of the women’s soccer team for the last four years, and soon she will have to step back and watch her sister and former teammates take over. “I’ll come watch every game that I can,” Jennifer said. “It’s going to be very weird to not play, but I’m going to enjoy it. I love watching the team play. It is cool to see how they develop and play with each other.” However, the Flynns still have some time to enjoy each others company before Jennifer leaves Logan. They still have the remainder of this season to be teammates and the remainder of the school year to be roommates. Although Aggie soccer fans may be saddened to watch one Flynn go, they can be excited to have an other one to watch for a few years.

Aggies seeking MWC tournament title in inaugural season 4By Jeff Dadah
assistant sports editor The USU women’s soccer team begins its quest for a Mountain West Conference title Monday when they take on Nevada. The Aggies earned the No. 5 seed for the tournament after finishing 5-3-2 in conference play for the season. Eight teams earned a bid to the tournament, which is formated so the No. 3 and No. 4 teams receive a bye and No. 1 and No. 2 teams are awarded a double-bye. The Aggies fell just short of a bye when they tied Boise State Friday in Logan. A win would have placed them tied for third in the conference. But with the regular season behind them, the Aggies face the Nevada Wolf Pack.
The Aggies lost to the Wolf Pack 2-0 in their conference opener on Sept. 27. The game was played in Reno and was scoreless until the 78th minute when Alyissa Deronde scored. U S U c o a c h Heather Cairns called the goal a “breakdown” by the defenders. The Wolf Pack added another goal late in the 87th minute by Kori Disarufino. The Wolf Pack only had three shots on goal that game, but two found the back of the net. However, the Aggies put seven shots on goal. Nevada was first in the
MWC in saves, but last in shutouts and ninth in goals against. They also were the most-penalized team in the conference. Nevada’s Bobby Reilly led the team in scoring with four goals. She is their biggest scoring threat. S h o u l d the Aggies beat Nevada, they would advance to play No. 4 New Mexico on Tuesday. They earned the No. 4 seed in the tournament when they tied 0-0 on Oct. 25 in Logan. That game was Natalie Stoven’s fourth-straight shutout at the time as they held New Mexico scoreless through 110 minutes. USU took 12 shots in the game,
six of which were on goal, and senior and first team AllMWC forward Jennifer Flynn took three of which. New Mexico boasts four second-team A l l - M WC p l aye r s , m i d f ielders Lindsay Guice a n d D y l a n O’Conner and defenders Liz Nare and Brianna Webster. USU has two second-team members, defenders Brooke LarsenLeavitt and Taryn Rose. New Mexico was third both in shots taken and goals in the MWC. If USU beats New Mexico,
they would play No. 1 San Diego State on Thursday. SDSU defeated USU 2-0 in Logan in October. SDSU was first in shots, goals, assists, goals against and shutouts in MWC play. The Aztecs dominated the conference with a 9-1 record with their only loss coming to Wyoming. SDSU has five first-team all-MWC players, including senior defender Haley Palmer, who has earned all-conference honors four times. The other side of the bracket has No. 6 UNLV taking on No. 7 Wyoming on Monday.
The winner of that game will play Boise State Tuesday, and the winner there will take on No. 2-seed Fresno State in the semifinals on Thursday. USU was second in the conference in shutouts and third in goals against. The Aggies have only had four goals scored on them in their last nine games and have shut out five teams in that span. They come in to the tournament on a 5-2-2 run and only one game with multiple goals scored against them in their last nine games. This is the Aggies’ first-ever MWC Tournament. SDSU is the defending MWC Tournament champion.
