If you're reading thi article with
a donut in your hand, or you can 't
remember the last time you went for
a run, the Student Health Center will
offer a chance for student to renew
tired and unhealthy bodies.
On Tuesday, Nov.l6, the 15th
annual Wellne s Fair will be held
in the Student Center Atrium with
the theme, "Taking Steps to a WellRounded You."
According to Director of Student
Health Services, Rose Bentivegna,
the Well ness Fair wi ll al low students to assess their hea lth on an
emotional, intellectual, spiri tual,
social, physical and occupational
level as they are invited to take part
in the activities and screenings of
the day.
"The fair is a reminder of how
important it is ... for students to be in
tu ne with their bodies," said senior
Roberta Muoio, one of the four student organizers planning the event.
The other three organizers are
seniors K.risti Hosko, Gina Puppo
and Lisa Schwan, who, according
to Bentivegna, "are enthusiastic,
br ight , and c rea tive . Th e y 've
worked hard to make thi s fair a
success."
The fair will feature representatives and experts to educate students
on all aspects of health.
Hill c res t Hos pital will offe r
cholesterol creening and tests for
blood sugar levels.
Healthy Heart will give heart
screenings, and Bally Total Fitness
will feature an exercise physiologist
to give consultations and ad mini ter
tests to assess exercise habits.
Estee Lauder will spon or free
makeovers . A dermatologist will
be on site to distribute samples, and
rna sage therapist Rick DiRunza
will offer free head and neck massage ·.
Parkhur. t will provide healthy
food that " really tastes good," Bentivegna said.
"We want to remind people of
the importance of wellness and
preventative health care ," Muoio
said . "It's an opportunity to see
what's new in the health care field
- to show people what's out there
and what's available to keep track
of their health."
According to Muoio, the most
beneficial service for students will
be the health screenings, as students
will be able to analyze their bodies
so that changes can be made for the
future.
"But there's going to be a lot
of interesting things to see and ask
questions about," she said.
According to Puppo, the Health
Center wants to encourage students
to learn the necessary steps to take
to achieve a sound mind and body.
Bentivegna echoed this sentiment,
saying that students need to become
aware of the most important aspects
of a college student's health , such
as eating well, exercising, managing stress, and receiving tests and
screenings.
" Students should know that
this fair is being put on for them,"
Puppo said .
President, Administration working towards
student town hall meeting next semester
From TOWN, p. 1
All of these meetings will be held
in the LSC Conference Room and
cover topics that Niehoff believes
are of vital importance to the JCU
community."! believe these five topics are major pieces of our University which have strategic choices,"
Niehoff said. Although students
cannot attend this series of town hall
meetings, Niehoff is currently working with Vice President of Student
Affairs Patrick Rombalski and Student Union President Dan O' Malley
to create a student series.
According to O' Malley, the first
of these meetings would occur at the
start of next semester, with another
around midterms. O 'Malley said he
would like the first meeting to focu s
on financial issues.
"Come December, we ' ll have
a clearer picture about tuition increases for 2006-2007. And I think
it would be great to have a town hall
with the president of the University
to talk about that," O ' Malley said.
O ' Malley said he envisions the
second meeting to cover student services, which would include topics
such as the bookstore, Parkhurst and
academic advising. These meetings
would be open to the entire student
body and have the same presentation
and discussion format. However, no
definite date or location has been
decided. As far as topics are concerned, O' Malley said he is hoping
for feedback from the students.
"I hope to get some suggestions
about what other ideas people have
for this second town hall because
there are so many issues that students want to talk about," O' Malley
said.

U.S. Senate to vote on student aid
By Beth Bowers
Assistant Editorial and Op/Ed Editor
Many John Carroll students
may have to start looking for other
financial aid opportunities, if a budget reduction bill cuts the Perkins
Loan and Pell Grants.
On ct. 27, the Hou e of epr sentatives approved a bill that will
cut certain financial aid programs,
including the Perkins Loan.
This bill will also affect the Pell
Grants.
Pell Grants are need based and
they might not be increased. If the
part of this bill, that cuts the Perkins
loan funds, makes it through HouseSenate conference, then, according
to Jerry Sheehan, director of Public
Affairs at JCU, loan programs will
become more expensive and less
available.
"If this loan cut passe , it will
affect all our students. This is no
small matter. I urge all students to
call House members [in Congress],"
Sheehan said.
The National Association of
Independent Colleges and Universities records show that last year,
519 John Carroll students received
Perkins loan awards.
The total authorization amount
for the Perkins loan is $1 million
If Congress allows the cut of
r
the Perkins loan, then more than
500 students will lose aid, averaging $2,000 dollars per tudent. This
might see like a small amount, but as
a whole thi could end up co ting a
lot more money for students becau e
lenders will have to increase interest
costs in order to make up for cuts to
their pro l..
JCU president the Rev. Robert
Niehoff went to Washington D.C. to
lobby against the bill. While there,
he visited many of northeastern
Ohio's representatives.
"My argument was that the
economy in northeastern Ohio is
poor. The demographic are poor,"
Niehoff said, "[This happens] because there aren't enough jobs, and
the economy is stagnate because the
manufacturing industry is no longer
thriving.
If we don't provide help for
higher education, people will leave
the area and not return."
Congress is also trying to make
institutions evaluate and clarify their
credit transfer policies. According
to Vice President of Student Affairs Patrick Rombalski, Congress
is trying to make nearly all classes
at almost all public institutions
transferable more easily from one
school to the next.
Legally congress really can't
restrict private schools, but this

Congress is hoping to have the
bill passed before January. According to Rombalski, given the
many other high priority issues
that Congress has to resolve - including hurricane relief, the Alito
nomination, and the Iraq war- the
bill probably won't be reconciled for
several months.
There are many discrepancies
between the House and Senate versions of the bill, which could also
delay its passing.
"Continue to advocate that if the

should not be to higher education,"
Rombalski said. "Write Congress,

Hollywood marriages and their

By Lindsay Misencik

of the lowest divorce

Staff Reporter
From frequent high-profile breakups to
sky-high divorce rates, it may seem that the
institution of marriage is in trouble.
The media is filled with stories of celebrity
marriage and breakups. In this week's issue
of US Weekly, the headline reads, "Britncy
& Kevin: Trouble after Baby." Could another
celebrity romance be deteriorating?
From Jude Law to Tom Cruise and Katie
Holmes, details of the love lives of celebrities remain a dominant feature of popular
culture.
The vast majority of young people, however, cite marriage as one of their major life
goals, according to a 2004 study by the National Marriage Project at Rutgers Univer ity.

"Dating and marriage behaviors tie with
accepted values and societal expectations. In
terms of acceptable behavior, celebrities are
in a class of their own."
She said that celebrity behaviors will only
affect people if they view celebrities as role
models, but students said these images in the
media have little effect on their views.
Senior Lindsey Robinson said celebrities
"have too much money and are bored" and
their relationship news does not affect her.
Junior Erica Patti said celebrity relationships are not role models.
"Celebrities are bad roles models and
have no influence on me," Patti said. "They
arc blinded by the spotlight and use marriage
as a way to promote themselves."
Hollywood has examples of stars who live
together without tying the knot, including
Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn, Oprah Winfrey and Stedman Graham, among others.
Harris added that marriage is a life choice
now, as opposed to a necessity as it was in
the past.
"Half a million couple were cohabiting in
1970; that number is now 5 million," Harris
said. "Women are much more independent
economically. Forty years ago this wasn 't an
option for women, since they needed to be
married to survive."

BOOK REVIEW:
"' It's Called a Breakup ..."
Stop checking your messages (and his).
Lay off the Haagen Daz and get out of
your PJs.
Breakups can be gut wrenching, but you
are going to be OK.
These are some of the many pieces of wisdom "Sex and the City" contributor Greg Behrendt and his wife, Amiira Ruotola-Behrendt,
offer in their new breakup survival guide, "It's
Called a Breakup Because It's Broken: The
Smart Girl 's Breakup Buddy."
Greg Behrendt recently coauthored The
New York Times best-seller "He's Just Not
That Into You." That straight-talking approach to men and their confusing signal
taught women to stop making excu es for the
men in their live .
In the latest book. the Behrendts offer a
simple, yet powerful, thesis on another important relationship topic - breakups.
While it may be tempting to wither away
from a broken heart, a breakup is a time to feel
the pain. reevaluate things and move on with
111 , 1
life as a more fabulous you.
The authors' view the breakup as sort of a
cleansing experience - a chance to sec what
improvements need to be made.
"It's called a breakup because it's broken, and starting today, you're not the kind
of woman who settles for broken or hang
on to damaged goods, be it a radio, a pair of
shoes, or a relationship!"
In the first section, they Jay out the commandments for surviving. No calling or seeing him for 60 days. Get rid of, or give back,
his things and anything that reminds you of
him. Get in motion every day.
The mo t important chapter and survival
rule is "It won't work unless you 'rc number
one." The chapter offers practical advice on
how to usc the newfound time to better your
own life.
This is where "It's Called a Breakup Because It's Broken" differs from most nauseating relationship advice books and women's
magazine articles.
It's not about snagging a man in 30 days
or getting him to take you back.

Jake Gyllenhaal plays Marine Anthony Swofford in the movie "Jarhead." The film features stories of soldiers enduring Operation Desert Storm.
'Jarhead' gives soldiers' insight
By Brian Bremer
Assrstant Arts & Life Editor
Two weeks before its release, I
was completely unaware of the movie
"Jarhead."
Then the marketing blitz started,
using one of the best trailers of recent
memory.
The trailer reveals almO>;t nothin a ut th plot, but it has such a
sense of energy, largely due to Kanye
West's "Jesus Walks" blasting In the
background. There was no way I was
going to miss this film.
There is, however, a reason that
the trarlcr gives no plot: there isn't
one. The movie progresses as a string
of incidents in the life of the Marine
Anthony Swofford (Jake Gyllenhaal)
from the time he enlists through fighting in Kuwait in Operation Desert
Storm.
The movie docs not allow the audience to get too emotionally attached to
the soldiers. but is filled with plenty of

detract from the overall appeal to the
mo i n i
Of the two hour movie, less than 20
minutes are spent in training. It is more
of an introduction to the Marines than
an introduction to the characters.
We meet the characters once
Operation Desert Shield begins, and
they attempt to deal with boredom and
homesickness.
The characters are well casted.
Jake Gyllenhaal ("Donnie Darko,"
"The Day After Tomorrow") draws
the audience in. He deftly shows the
conflict between his hatred of being
in the desert and his eagerness to have
his first kill.
Jamie Foxx ("Ray," "Collateral")
is tellar as the staff sergeant in charge
o
niper uad. A die-hard Marine, he cares about his men, but he
obviously believes in their mission far
more than his squad does.
Peter Sarsgaard ("Flight Plan,"
"Garden State") is solid as Swofford's
best friend Troy, and Chris Cooper
("American Beauty," "The Bourne
Identity ") steals his scenes as the
commanding Colonel.
Probably the most surprising juxtaposition in the movie are the humorous
one-liners tossed about by the Marines
in a movie that is predominantly about
despair and loss of self-worth.
This is not your typical war movie.
There arc no battle scenes, though
carnage of war is displayed in an
extremely graphic manner.
The humanity of "Jarhead" i its
best trait. It is the most emotionally
engaging movie of the year; I left the
theater feeling drained.
"Jarhead" is a movie that not everyone wiU like, but everyone should

Organize and de-stress with
tips from counseling center
By Marla Kaclk
Assistant Nation Editor
The semester has been passmg by
rapidly. And as it comes to an end,
JCU student have to worry about
final projects and papers, final exam ·
and holiday shopping.
With all of this on the student
agenda, it's no surprise that stress is
everywhere.
Mary Beth Javorek of John Carroll's Counseling Center explained that
there 's a predictable pattern of students
commg to her for stress. "We peal.: the
la't wcd.s of October and the first
weeks of ovcmbcr,'' 'he said
Javorek sard that stress is the most
common topic students need counsel
ing on. includrng anxiet) resulting
from balancing activities. maintatn ing posrtive relationships and dealing
with the workload of a university
education.
The workload, ·he explained, is the
source of most of students' stress. "It's
ever present. As soon as you finish one
test, you look at your calendar and see
all the exams and projects coming up
again.·•
With the constant pressure of college life. it inevitably takes a physical
toll on the body.
Symptoms of stress include
trouble sleeping, upset stomach, fast
heart rate, headaches. irritability and
cold sweats.
Rose Bentivegna, R. ., director of
the Student Health Center, said these
symptoms might not always seem like
stress at first. "When I do an exantinallon. I don't sec any reason for them .
But when I talk to them. I lind out a
whole lot more.''
"Guess what? You can't stay up all
night, not eat well and wonder why
you don't feel well."
- Rose Bentivegna, R.N.
Director of the Health Center
In conversation, students often
admit that they don't sleep or eat
enough. They try to do too much and
arc a nervous wreck, according to
Bentivegna.
Bentivegna's reply: "Guess what?
You can't stay up all night, not eat
well and wonder why you don't feel
well."
Javorek agrees. "Your mind functions better when you've had some
rest," she said.
According to Bentivegna, there is
a way to figure out how much sleep
you need.
One should get eight hours of Jeep
for a few night~. Tf one feels refreshed
after that, set the alarm back I 5 minutes
earlier each night. EventuallY., one will
find a night when you get just enough
sleep for you to function.
In addition to eating and sleeping,
Javorek said that good study habits
beat anxiety. Working for hours at a
time and trying to force , tudying or
writing will not accomplish anything,
according to Javorek.
"It's better to break your study or
writing time into smaller breaks so
you're more effective," Javorek said.
Bentivegna said she tries to help
students who are worried about their
workload by talking about how they
manage their time. ''Let's talk about
what you ·hould have done last week
so you would not be where you are

taking time to get proper rest and nutrition.
now," she said.
Use of a daily planner to look
ahead to future activities could be the
solution to such problems, according
to Bentivegna.
With exam week starting Dec. 12,
it is never too early to start planning.
"Get a game plan. Look at your syllabus and actually plan six to seven days
in advance when to study," Javorek
aid. Finally, healthy exam studying
allows time for breaks, according to
Bentivegna.
Eating the right foods, sleeping the
right amount and studying the right
amount are all important for a healthy
lifestyle, she aid.
However, it all means nothing if
you don't have time to relax and enjoy
life once in a while.
"Students' lives are very busy and
hectic. It's always a good idea once in
a while to just take a deep breathe and
slow down," Bentivegna said.

"Take it like a man," they said
to Lois Jenson. Finally, he faced
her fears and filed a lawsuit, the
first class action case again t sexual
hara sment.
The recently released movie
" orth Country" portrays Jenson's
struggle. In the movie, she i represented by a character named Jo ey
Aimes, played by Charli ze Theron.
Aimes. faced with hard times,
must work in the mines of her Minnesota hometown to upport her two
children. Unwelcome in the mostlymale industry, the female workers are
constantly harassed and beaten. Some
of the attacks border on rape.
The 1989 landmark case began
the fight against sexual harassment.
Today, both men and women face
haras ment on college campuses and
in the workplace, according to John
Carroll counselor and member of the
sexual harassment committee Mary
Beth Javorek.
"Sexual harassment occurs everywhere," Javorek said. "People
have different sets of expectations
and understandings of what's acceptable and what's not acceptable. Part
of what creates sexual hara sment is
people coming from different backgrounds."
While individuals may differ in
their understanding of what is acceptable behavior, knowledge of what is
considered sexual harassment is important for everyone from tudents to
employees, Javorek added.
"The key to sexual harassment
is it has to be unwanted," Javorek
explained, "and it has to persist. The
person continues the behavior even
after they have been asked to stop."
Freshman Sara Martin said some
people have the mistaken belief that
sexual harassment only involves
physical contact.
"Sexual harassment is when a
person is sexually violated either
physically or yerbally when a person
i. either touched unwillingly in a
sexual manner or is harassed verbally
in a rude sexual manner." Martin said .
" Many people feel that sexual harassment is solely physical, but it can be
either physical or verbal."
Whether physical or verbal, victims of sexual harassment are not
always women as many assume,
Javorek explained.
"Anyone can be a victim. male or
female." Javorek said. "Most case are
women with case about hara sment
from men. There are a good number of
cases where men arc filing complaints
being harassed by women; about 10
percent of the cases. And there are
also women being harassed by other
women, men being harassed by other
men."
Any form of exual haras ment of
men or women can overlap with stalking. The two are related but there is a
distinction of stalking moving towards
sexual offense. "There is a cross over
of unwanted behavior such as gift and
phone calls. especially in the work
place. Generally, stalking behavior
doesn't stop and has the addition of
physical threat." Javorek said.
It is important to take harassment
seriously because of new technology,
which poses a bigger threat and increases the risk of sexual harassment
and stalking.

punishment Sunday for those causing "violence or fear" across France.
French riots heating up
By Frank Bujanda
Th Carroll
e
France wlfllmposc curfews and usc police
reservists in an attempt to quell the rioting
that began after an accidental electrocution
of two teens Oct. 27. The rioting spread from
Paris suburbs to nearly 300 cities and towns
in France.
As of Monday, one fatality has been reponed - a 61-year-old man who was beaten
by an allacker outside his housing project in
a Paris suburb. More than I ,400 vehicles
were burned Monday. Churches, businesses
and schools have also been burned, according to France's national police chief Michel
Gaudin.
Police have made nearly 400 arre ts in
connection to the incident. Youths have rioted
predominantly m the suburbs or impoverished
areas where most of the immigrant population
resides. These act have also created copycat
situations in Germany.
According to the New York Time , rioter
have targeted the interior minister o ranee.
Nicolas Sarkozy.
They have said that his negative comment
towards them such as "scum" and "lowlifes"
when referring to troublemakers in poor
neighborhoods. His no tolerance policy has
increased youth's angst towards him.
The political ten, ion also runs high as
both the Interior Minister, Sarkozy, and
Prime Minister, Dominique de Villepin, are
seeking election to the presidency during the
next term.
Director of Global Education and political
science profes ·or Andreas Sobisch said the
rioting could have negative political implications for French leaders.
"Mr. Sarkozy is in the prime position to
do something because he i in charge of the
police. This type of thing can make or break
you politically. If you achieve peace you're
gold. If you don't, then your done," Sobisch
aid.
. o i. ch said this issue has en a longterm problem.
"It is a difficult situation for the police.
There is no one to negotiate with so it makes
the situation difficult to control," Sobisch
said.
"It is an issue that has been festering for
a long time. The acts are not a racial thing. It
is more religious between anti-Muslim and
youth discrimination."
John Carroll does not have any students
currently studying in France according to Sobisch. However, Professor Martha Pereszlenyi
Pinter is planning to take a group of student
to Nice, a city on the French-Italian border.
She said that she is "deeply distressed" about
the situation.
There is no plan to cancel the trip at this
time, but they are attentive to "social unrest,
religious, immigration, and cultural problems"
in planning for the spring 2006 trip.
"This is the first time [suburban violence]
ha Ia ted o long and the government appears
taken aback at the magnitude," said Pascal
Perrineau, the director of the Center for Study
of French Political Life.
On Saturday morning, more than 1,000
people took to the streets in a silent march
again t the riots. The signs read "No to Violence." Later that night, bands of youth burned
a nursery school and warehouses along with
vehicles.
Villepin spoke on Sunday, promising fast
trials for those rioting and assured the people
of the increased security in needed areas.
President Jacques Chirac promised Sunday
to restore public order across France. That
night, 10 riot police were injured by buckshot in a clash in the southern Paris suburb
of Grigny, national police spokesman Patrick
Hamon said.

Alita named new nominee
Judge believes
separation of
church and state
too rigid
By Jen Olsen
Staff Reporter
After the withdrawal of Harriet
Miers' nomination late last month,
President Bush appointed a new
nominee for the Supreme Coun,
Samuel A. Alito.
Alito, a graduate of Princeton
and Yale, erved as a judge on
the U.S. Court of Appeals for the
Third Circuit. His qualifications,
unlike Miers', have been regarded
as solid.
Bush said that A lito "is scholarly,
fa1r-minded and principled, and
these traits Will serve our nation well
on our highest court," a cording to
The Associated Press.
However, the debate on Alito's
nomination focu es on a different
area- his political leaning . Overall,
social conservatives have been impressed with A lito's record.
It is expected that if Alito were
to be appointed to the Court, he
would tip the scale further toward
the political right, The New York
Times reported. Alito is known
for a Pennsylvania case where he
voted in favor of state laws restricting abortion rights.
One of the ramifications of thi
decision was that women would
be required by law to inform their
hu bands before obtaining an abortion. Alito voted in the minority in
that case. according to The New
York Times.
Abortion rights group. have
spoken out against Alito's nomi-
nation, believing that Alito's presence on the Supreme Court would
place even heavier restrictions on a
woman's right to an abortion, The
New York Times reported.
Alito has made it clear that he
believes the church and state divide
today is too rigid, according to The
New York Time .
He has poken in favor of a renewed use of I0 Commandment displays in the government. Alito a! o
has a paper trail that clearly show
his con ervative grounding.
The ranking D mocrat on the
Judiciary Committee, Sen .. Patrick
Leahy (VT.), told The New York
Time , "This i the whole issue of
ideology, and if the ideology is one
that you go in with a predetermined
agenda, then I don't care if they
are a Democrat or a Republican.
They don't belong on the Supreme
Court."
"The aggressively ideological
opposition distorts the confirmation process. Treating it as a political
matter may encourage a view of the
court as nothing more than another
political institution," law professor
Richard D. Friedman of the University of Michigan told The New York
Times.
Of major concern at this point is
whether or not the Democrats in the
Senate would be willing to hold a
filibuster, a drawn out delaying tactic to oppose the Alito nomination,
according to The Associated Press.
A imple majority i required to
confirm the nominee, and Republicans hold 55 seats in the Senate. If
the Democrats were to lead a filibuster, 60 votes would be required for
a cloture motion to stop it.
The question of a possible
filibuster re ts in the hand of 14

he is announced as the new
Supreme Court nominee.
cans known as the Gang of 14.
Should they feel thatAlito is not
the man needed for the Supreme
Court seat, they would allow the
filibuster to take place.
Senator John McCain (R-Ariz.),
a member of the Gang of 14, told
The New York Times that it was still
far too early to say if the threat of a
filibuster was sound or not.

Libby pleads not guilty
Former Chief of Staff to Vice President charged with perjury
By Marissa Beechuk
Nation Editor
Lewi. "Scooter" Libb)' Jr., former chief of staff to Vice Pre ident
Dick Cheney, plead not guilty Nov.
3 to perjury and obstruction charges
in the CIA leak inve tigation.
Lawyers on both sides of the case
said it could stretch well into next
year because of complications over
access to cia sified material, according to the New York Time .
Lawyers for Libby said that they
would seek to raise First Amendment i ues in his defense by trying to gain access to reporters ' notes
regarding the "leak.
This sets the stage for more confrontation with journalists who are
central to the investigation.
Certain aspects of the case are
complicating the process, according to special prosecutor Patrick J.
Fitzgerald.
Declassifying material, blacking out secret material, and granting Libby's new lawyers security
clearance to review the material
may take months.
These facts alone have dashed
the hopes of Republicans who
wanted a quick resolution to a ca e
that has already discredited the
White House.
"In pleading not guilty, he has
declared to the world that he is
innocent. He has declared that he
intend to fi ght the charge in the
indictment. He has declared that he
wants to clear his good name and he
wants a jury trial," Libby 's lawyer
Theodore Y. Wells Jr. said.
Another of Libby's lawyers. Wil liam Jeffress Jr.. has won famous
ca e for many politicians.
Most notable was a case against
former President Richard M. ixon
on public access to the Watergate
tapes.
At the arraignment. Libby
waived his right to a speedy trial,
which added to the complications.
Judge Reggie B. Walton of Federal Di trict Court said, "1 want to
try to have this matter re olved as
expeditiously as po sible."
However, he understands the
unusual complications will make a
speedy resolution difficult.
The White House has declined
to comment on the political impact
of a long trial.
The refusal to comment begs
questions about the administration ·s
handling of intelligence on Iraq's
weapons of mass destruction, according to the New York Times.
Democratic leaders in the Senate
wrote a Jetter to Cheney criticizing
his decision to replace Libby with
staff members David S. Addington
and John P. Hannah.
"Instead of cleaning hou e, you
_simply rearranged some of the furniture," the Democrats wrote.
Libby's arraignment lasted only
10 minutes .
Fitzgerald made the trip from
Ch1cago to handle the arraignment
per onally to show the importance
of every step in the case.
The arraignment took place in a
huge, ceremonial courtroom at the
U.S . District Court in Washington.
More than I 00 reporters and
observers in attendance.
Some arrived as early as 7 a.m .,
according to the ew York Times.
Because the White Hou ·e ha.
declined to comment on the case,
the i. sue now is how long it can
deflect question ·.
It also remains to be seen how
well it can keep the focus away from
President Bush.
Special counsel implied in their
indictment of Libby that Bush,
Cheney and other senior officials
had some part in the d1sclosure of
information.
Bush wa n't mentioned in the
indictment. Because so many of
his aides are suspected of being involved, the issue opens the door for
questions of Bush's involvement.
The White House hasn't publicly
spoken about Bush's knowledge of
who leaked the information.
After the leak, a Washington
Post/ABC ew poll said that only
40 percent of Americans see Bush
as hone t and trustworthy.
Democrats are demanding that

Senate in closed session.
By Maria Kacik
Assistant Nation Editor
Unsatisfied with previous efforts to investigate the Bush administration's use of intelligence to enter Iraq, Senate Democrats used an
obscure rule last Tuesday to close the Senate
and force discussions on the topic.
Rule XXI of the Senate says that everyone
but senators must leave the room and the doors
be closed "on the discussion of any business
which may, in the opinion of a Senator, require secrecy." Afterward , all information
discussed is labeled confidential and can't
be leaked. For a closed-door session, all
that's needed is a motion from a senator and
a second of that motion.
This rule has been used up to 50 times in
the past, the last one during the Clinton impeachment. However, it's been more than 25
years since a clo ed session took place without
bipartisan agreement.
Senate Majority Leader, Bill Frist (RTenn.), spoke against the unilateral action.
"The United States Senate has been hijacked
by the Democratic leadership," he said.
Professor Larry Schwab of JCU' political
science department explained why this action
was taken by the Democrats. "What happens
in the Senate is most things are done with the
Majority Leader negotiating with the Minority Leader." Senate Democratic Leader Harry
Reid, however, believed that previous efforts
to look at reason for entering Iraq have been
slow and insufficient.
"I think the American people are entitled
to know how we got [involved in Iraq]. That's
what this is all about," Reid said. "They have
repeatedly chosen to protect the Republican
administration rather than get to the bottom
of what happened and why,"
Chaired by Sen. Pat Roberts (R-Kan.),
the committee produced a 51 !-page report
in July of 2004.
This investigation had two goals. First,
it aimed to look at the intelligence that the
White House received in the months leading
up to the involvement with Iraq. The group
had to decide, according to Roberts, "Were
those public statements really backed up by
intelligence, or were they backed up by flawed
intelligence?"
In the second phase of research, the
group was responsible for deciding whether
the administration used deception or twisted
information to obtain approval for war. After
completing the first phase, the Intelligence
Committee decided the information was
faulty.
Roberts promised an additional investigation to provide an in-depth answer to whether
or not Bush twisted information. Schwab said
that until the results of this second phase are
released, incorrect conclusions might be
made.
"This would be a favorable outcome for the
Republicans," Schwab said. "They can blame
it all on faulty information." With the release
of this second phase of research, the Bush administration might appear more accountable if
found to have twisted the facts. Despite some
delays Roberts blamed on the Democrats, the
Intelligence Committee is nearing the end of
the investigation.
He took accusations from the Democrats
and the closed door session as an attempt
to make him and other Republicans look
negligent.
"Now we have this ... stunt 24 hours after
their staff was informed that we were moving
to closure next week," Roberts said. "If that's
not politics, I'm not standing here."
A bipartisan group of senators has been put
together to asses the progress of Roberts and
the Senate Intelligence Committee. The group
will report to the Senate on Nov. 14.

Dick Cheney, leaves the U.S. District Court with lawyers William

Champions
Blue Streaks to p_lay at Shula Stadium
this Saturday in NCAA Tournament play
By Grace Doberdruk
The Carroll News
Dejan Mladenovic leapt into
the air and kicked a sideways shot
into the goal to give John Carroll a
2-1 victory over Wilmington in the
Ohio Athletic Conference Championship game Saturday at Don Shula
Stadium.
"One word - amazing!" Mladenovic said, describmg how he felt
after kicking the game-winning
goal. "It was great, especially to
win in front of the home crowd.
We haven't won a championship at
home since 1993. This was a really,
really big deal for us."
In the third minute of overtime,
Milko Cecez's comer kick went to
Kevin Pap, who sent the ball back
to Cecez to draw the Wilmington
defenders out.
Cecez then passed the ball to
Mladenovic, who vaulted himself
in the air and bicycle kicked the
ball into the back of the net.
"I felt great for our guys," Head
Coach Ali Kazemaini said. "We
have such good chemistry. The
guys work hard."
Jo hn Carroll (12-6-1) won its
fourth OAC Tournament title and
automatically qualified for the Division Ill NCAA Tournament. JCU
has won eight consecutive games
and 10 of its last 11 after starting
the season 2-5-1. The Streaks then
took part in one of the tightest OAC
races for first place in years.
"We've worked hard the whole
year," Cecez said, who had the assist for the game-winning goal. "We
had a rough start, but we found the
pieces to the puzzle. We turned
thi ngs around."
JCU c laimed sole po session
of first place in the OAC Oct. 22,
after defeating W il mington, with
the game's only goal coming from
senior Brandon D iGuilio . T h at
game set the stage for a heated
second match-up in the conference
fi nals. "Wilm ington's a hard team,"
Kazamaini said. "We had to keep
them down defensively.'
In the firs t period, JCU took 10
shots compared to Wilmington's
five. The first shot of the game resulted in an early goal for JCU.
Pap maneuvered around a pair
of Wilmington defenders before
passing the ball to Alex Bernot,
who scored at the 5:03 mark. It
was Bernot'!. seventh goal of the
season.
"One is not enough," Pap said.
"[Wilmington] was putting lots of
pressure on u. ."
After allowing the early goal,
Wilmington goatie Justin Saylor
settled in and made numerous
tough saves.
Freshman goalie Ben Carro was
up for the challenge a well and
played aggressively, not allowing
a goal in the first half.
JCU controlled the ball for the
majority of the first period, but
Wi lmington took control of the
second, taking 12 shots at goaltender Carro. Despite the increased
offensive attack, JCU remained
unphased.
"With 14 minutes to go, I thought
the game was over," Bemot admitted.
That's when the game started to
get a bit more physical.
"There was a 10 minute span that
was intense," Bemot said. "There
were four yellow cards."
Schmidt received a yellow card
after forcing a Wilmington player
into his own bench.
Yellow cards were also given
to M ladenovic, and Wilmington's
Ryan Phillips and J.T. Pitstick. It
was Pitstick's second yellow card,
and he was ejected from the game.
" We have to protect our guys
a nd p lay physical," Mladenovic
said. " We're not going to back
down. We're not scared."
Pitstick's ejection fired up his
team. And even though they were
forced to play with only 10 players,
they managed to score shorthanded.
Derek Vander Sluijs sent a ball into
the box for Phil Walter, who scored
his fo urth goal of the season to tie
the game 1-1.
"Wilmington's a good offensive
team. They can come back at any
point," Cecez said. "They had a man
down [and scored]."
Late in the second period, Walter
had a breakaway, but Carro saved
his shot. The game went into the first
of two possible overtime periods.
"We were down before and tied
before in big games," Mladenovic
said. "The most important thing is
we didn't panic. I never felt we'd
lose."
"We were a man up in overtime."
Kazemaini said. "We were thinking,
'don't do anything silly. Don't force
anything.' They were already tired
fro m play in a m a n d w n ."
JCU needed only two shots in
overtime, the first coming from a
ball that Cecez kicked into the side
of the net and the second by Mladenovic, the game-winner.
"We had to grind it out and play
tough defense," Cecez aid. He
and DiGuilio were recently named
to the 2005 ESPN The Magazine
Academic All-District IV Men's
Soccer Team.
John Carroll's next game will be
in the NCAA Division ill Tournament against Washington and Jefferson on Saturday at Don Shula
Stadium at li a.m.
Immediately following the game,
Carnegie Mellon and Fredonia State
will square off, with the winners
playing Sunday at I p.m.
Pap sununed up the feeling going into the NCAA tournament.
"One game at a time," Pap said.
"And let's have some fun."

Blasius happy with soccer's improvements
By Mike Scanlan
Sports Editor
Athleticism and team c hemistry often
factor into the record of a successful sport
team.
But, if you ask Tracy Blasius why her team
improved so much this year, her answer is
simple.
"We were mentally tougher this season
with the idea that we were going to have a
winning season," she said.
Blasius attributes attitude as the reason
why her women's soccer team went from
4-13 last season to 10-10-1 this year.
And on a team with three senior and eight
junior starters, that attitude was an untamable
beast.
Factor eight one-goallo es into the equation, and you have a recipe for succe that
will carry on to the 2006 campaign.
Blasius could not have been more pleased
with the way her experienced upperclassmen
took the team over this year.
"We had so much improvement this year
offensively," she said. "Erin Grzcgorzewski
had seven goals this season and really stepped
up from last year."
Grzegorzewski echoed Blasius' feeling
about the team. "The main difference this
year was our team dynamic," she said. "We
were so close and there was no division between classes."
The junior mid fielder attributed the team's
success to an increased comfort level between
players.
"Usually, when a season comes to an end
and its time to wrap up, everyone is ready.
But this year was different," Gr.regorzewski
said. "The second the g_ame ended against
Otterbein, the first thing that flashed into my
head was the beginning of the season and how
fast it went."
As the team leader in goals and points,
Grzegorzewski assumed the spotlight for the
Blue Streaks this year.
"I had a great season, and I was pretty
happy with effort," she said. "Alex Kern and
I had a huge connection on the left side and
I was really comfortable in the middle with
Amanda. We all worked together with Sopkovich up top."
Statistics aside, Blasius saw a wealth of
improvement from her offensive attack.
"Jenny Sopkovich had a great year with
her speed and athleticism. Laura Violante up
top added of top of opportunities for us up top
toward the end of the year," she said.
In the sports world, the end of one season
means this beginning of another, even if it
is 10 months away. Blasius thinks that her
team i well equipped for another successful
season.
"1 couldn't be more excited about next
year. We'll miss the senior , but we have
juniors with a ton of experience," Blasius
said. "There's a lot of freshman that didn't
get a whole lot of time, but with the year
experience, we're looking to them to step up
next season.''
Grzegorzewski is looking to next year
as a chance for JCU to showca e an already
experienced team.
"We're losing three tarters, which will
hurt, and they'll be missed, but we have a
strong program and depth on the bench,''
she said.
"Our underclassmen stepped up this season to help our veteran defense,'' she said. "It
makes our program so much better to have
younger player taking bigger roles."
If this po itive team attitude carries over
to the 2006 campaign. Blasius and the Blue
Streaks should be sitting a top the OAC.

effort.
"Obviously, I was thrilled with my effort. But what was really exciting is that our
team did awesome," she said. "We actually
thought we had won it, but ended up losing
by one point."
The disappointment of a one-point loss
was overshadowed by a consistent team effort. "What I really hope is that my teammates
remember how it felt when we thought we
had won," Fernandez said. "I hope t~at the
unaerc as. men won't et that thought be a
glimmer or a one hit wonder. "

fini has a tribute to the team's desire to win.

honors. McConville ran to a 15th place fini h,
the first time two JCU women placed in the top
20 at the national cross country meet.
"The fact that these will be my last two

"Shannon always tells me, when your legs say
no, your arms say go."

a time of 25:08 on the 8,000-meter course. It

Hockey enters conference play
By Art Antram
Sports Editor
John Carroll men's hockey team
had good luck finding the back of
the net in a match up versus SUNY
Binghamton. The 3-2 victory was
hard fought as both teams each had
14 minutes in penalties.
JCU (3-9-1 overall) and SUNY
Binghamton ( 1-8 overall) both took
a plethora of shots on goal. A total
of 59 shots were fired. Streaks
P!>JIO c:cunesy ol JCU Hod<oy
Freshman Lou Grandinetti
has stepped up as a leader on
the John Carroll Club Hockey
team. The Blue Streaks are in
a tie for first place in the ECHL
Club Hockey league despite
playing four nationally ranked
teams to begin the season.
sophomore goaltender Chris Ostrander made 23 saves on 25 shots,
while Binghamton goalie Adam
Leach made 31 saves on 34 shots
in 60 minutes of regulation.
The first goal of the game
was a power-play goal scored by
sophomore forward John Sullivan,
assisted by junior forward Tristan
Tripodi and freshman defender Lou
Caracci at the 2:18 mark of the first
period.
The second goal was scored
shorthanded at the 12:44 mark of
the second period by junior forward,
Phil Jancosko and assisted by freshman forward Lou Grandinetti.
The third JCU goal was scored
at equal strength by Grandinetti
and assisted by senior defensernan
Kevin Kita.
Currently, the Streaks are atop
the ECHL Club Hockey league and
are in a three-way tie with Mercyhurst College and the University of
Niagra.
The Streaks got off to a slow
tart this cason, but are now going
into conference play with plenty of
momentum, The reason for the slow
tart can be attributed to the tough
non-conference schedule.
Towson University (14th),
University of Michigan Dearbome
(13th), Kent State (7th) and Robert
Morris of Chicago (3rd) were all
ranked in the top 15 in the nation
when they played the Streaks.
Senior forward and captain John
LaRoy feel that even with a short
roster, the Streaks have a great thing
going in their favor.
"We are all hard workers. We
have less guys on the roster than
most teams and we still perform at
a high pace," LaRoy said.
The importance of discipline is
something that this team is quite
receptive to, especially this year's
squad.
"We focus on positioning and
team play." LaRoy said. This simple
philosophy seems to be working for
the Streaks, who are in the right position to take over their division.
Various players have taken on
pivotal roles on the team including senior forward Joe Bontempo,
junior forwards Tristan Tripodi and
Phil Jancosko in addition to sophomore forward John Sullivan.
The captains look to these players to guide the younger players that
are now experiencing college club
hockey's finest competition.

Successful elections
Thi~ year's most unexpected sight? An tmpassioned Student
nton
election season.
Of course. this should not have been a surprise as the outgoing Executive
Board ha brought a new level of dedication and capability to John Carroll
University's student government.
The passion was clearly seen. Bright campaign poster were everywhere
from around campus. Facebook groups for many candidate have sprung
up, with orne claiming over ISO members. And, candidates went door to
door to get the vote out.
This is a clear departure from last year, when many tudents weren't
aware of or didn't care about the elections.
Last year, only six people ran for Executive Board position . leaving
multiple unoppo ed races.
Thi year, 17 members are running for positions. Intere ted students
filled the atrium to listen to stump speeches and the Presidential debate.
And in some cases, there was actually a line to vote.
The abundance of enthu iastie candidates and upporters is in part due
to this year's current Executive Board including the Election Committee
and Constitutional Review Committee.
Another reason for the better election season was that it was lengthened
from six day to two weeks, allowing word of mouth to spread and excitement to build. The confusing primary elections were also eliminated.
The SU added a voting place in front of the Garden Cafe, allowing more
students, especially commuters, the chance to vote.
The success of the pa t two weeks is a reminder of the success and improvements in student life that the past year' Exec Board members have
presided over. From last January when they took office, they have increased
communication and accountability. Through newsletters and their new Web
site, the Exec Board has worked to make the student body more aware of
what the Student Union is doing to better serve the students. They have
initiated new student services and improved old ones.
Most importantly, the Exec Board has changed the previously commonly-held belief that the SU doesn't do anything.
NOTABLE
Volunteers needed for relief efforts
slee "
Since August, tragedie caused by hurricanes, mudslides and tornados
have attacked our country. These events quickly fade from the headlines,
but the destruction still remain .
Many people around the world. including several John Carroll students.
have gotten involved in relief efforts already. lt is important for more people
to follow their example and join in.
People need to continue to be aware of the situations and take the opportunities to volunteer.
The Red Cross has combined the efforts of thousands of volunteers to
build shelters for the people who lo t their home and citie .
Donations of food, clothing and money are being sent to the Red Cross,
but they are still in dire need of generosity.
The Red Cros took out $340 million in banks loans and is still trying
to rai e another $400 million. Now that the initial donating frenzy has
subsided, more help is still needed.
JCU's Campu Crusade for Christ raised money this week through a
free concert asking for donations, while the JCU Graduate School old
carnations and gave the money to hurricane relief.
When it comes to volunteering time, Habitat for Humanity is one of
the main organizations involving students on campus. This spring. they
are planning a trip to South Carolina called "Collegiate Challenge" to help
with the rebuilding in the south.
For students who are unable to travel, the group is planning to build a
house on the Quad and ship it to Biloxi, Mi s. as soon as funds are available. Additionally, Campus Crusade for Christ is planning a trip to New
Orleans in December.
They are CUITently accepting applications for students who want to connect with Loui iana residents who need new homes .The trip is planned for
Dec. 17-23 and is in connection with the Catholic Charities.
If your wallet is feeling light and you aren't able to travel to a devastated
area, there are plenty of opportunities in Cleveland and on-campus to lend
a hand to those in need .
We are all ble sed to be attending a Jesuit University. To paraphrase
the Bible, "To whom much is given, much is required."

OUR lEW
The breakdown of GrasseIIi Library users
Staff Commentary
Mike Scanlan
Sports Editor
The mighty Gras.clli Library is
filled with volumes of dusty books
that most of John Carroll's scholars
will nevertouch. It's a virtual breeding ground for knowledge and eventual wealth- if you're Tim Russert.
There's even a children's section
upstairs for those of us who prefer
pretty illustrated pictures.
But, as any seasoned John Carroll procrastinator knows, the library
is really just an extension of your
social life. Sure, there are books and
periodicals. Heck, there are even
CO's and movies in the basement.
For the lot of JCU studicrs, a sue-
"Back half of a deer found
on the side of the road.''
cessfullrbrary Jaunt rs measured by
whether or not you and your friends
got one of those fancy glass rooms
to gossip/study m.
The way I sec it, if you're in the
library, then you fit into one of several unmistakable categories.
First, there are the people who
actually use the library for studying. These people are probably
going somewhere in life, and I
hope God blesses their journey.
The actual scholars are not to be
confused with students from the
Boler School who, at any moment,
can be heard complaining about how
hard college is. These kids should
take their never-ending saga to the
Boler Business Lab, where all the
other number crunchers are hard at
work on their first ulcer.
Then, there are the computer
users, most of whom have signed
onto instant messenger and come up
with the very clever away message
that reads "library." In the rare occurrence that anyone actually needs
a computer for educational means,
these are the people who leave
their bag on a computer chair and
put up Blackboard -a very deceptive move.
The next category, which often
includes the computer users, is the
nomads. They are versatile and
can often be mistaken for college
dropouts. You'll notice them from
a distance, make eye contact and
count on a I 0-minute conversation
chronicling their latest test, drink
specials on Lee Road and the latest
gossip. But the pen in the ear move
will fool most anyone into thinking
a nomad is just taking a break from
brainstorming their latest literary
masterpiece.
My last and arguably favorite
category of Grasselli Library users
are individual students who take up
entire tables with books, notebooks,
laptops, bags, purses and pretty
much anything else that will prove
to the general public that the table
is occupied. Don't worry- everyone
else can sit on the lloor.
So, study on all you Academic
Search Premier users, the world can
be yours one reference at a time.

Zero tolerance
attitude causes
more harm than
good
Katie Mahoney
Editorial & Op-Ed Editor
Intolerance has turned into a
massive problem in our world.
Last week, riots broke out in
Paris after two teenagers were ki lied
when lleeing from police.
Interior Minister Nicolas Sarkozy responded to these riots by
saying the country ha a "zero tolerance" policy toward violence.
The youths rioting also have
adapted a zero tolerance policy
towards the authority' handling of
the situation.
These two absolute views of"no
violence" and "no authority" are hitting each other hard and causing the
situation to ignite even more.
No tolerance exists between
these two groups of people. This
has become a worldwide issue that,
unfortunately, is growing more intense by the day.
Many people choo e to ignore
the fact that hate, racism and intolerance surround us every day
in society.
· Truth is, we've become comfortable hearing offensive slang and
ignore rude symbols that might be
drawn onto walls on campus.
If people don't become aware
soon, this could lead to harming
our united country.
I am not condoning the behavior
of the rioters.
They have lost complete control
and are destroying property and
attacking people that are no way
related to the deaths that caused the
uproar in Paris.
However, I do understand their
frustration about the deaths of the
teenagers and agree that action
needs to be permanently taken.
I am also not condoning the actions of the authority in this situation. Having a zero tolerance policy
should not mean using violence and
aggressiveness to handle people
who themselves are being violent
and excessively forceful.
A new solution needs to be
reached . Absolute views prevent
compromises.
If these riots are going to stop
then the adolescents and the authority need to let their guard down and
be open to discussion.
This is also crucial to achieving
tolerance.
Tolerance is not seeing those differences, but rather seeing everyone
as equal, yet unique.
By looking at the situation from
this angle, a compromise could easily be reached.
This is someth ing all people of
society should adopt and follow.
Many people believe themselves to
be tolerant and accepting.
For some this is true. However,
our ociety ha become so comfortable with racial slurs and offensive
language, it's hard to distinguish
tolerance.
Without a world of tolerance and
communication, people will eventually ruin society as we know it.
Hopefully, we will be able to step
back, change our way of thinking
and change our viewpoints.
This is our only chance to live.
Some are wasting their talent and
energy on punishing authority or
acting out violently as a way of self
expression.
People should take a cue from
the late Rosa Parks. She used a
peaceful means of expression to
act out against intolerance.
We need to use more communication and discussion in order to
resolve the problem of intolerance
that plagues the world.

Poker, NASCAR and horse racing ... real sports?
Physical theater at its finest, these
moment · are living, breathing cog
in our national con ·ciousness.
But for how much longer?
Recently. televised sport have
been poisoned by an evil more
corrosive than qeroids, pointshaving and George tcinbrcnner
combined.
It's the influx of non-sports
and the case with which they find
airtime.
Case in point: the World Series
of Poker. Desprte the bastardization
of the phrase "World Series," thi
event is not a :port.
Poker is slightly more" portsy"
than pm-the-bottle, but light years
bchmd things like horseshoes and
Jenga.
Also, it's gljmbling. You get
banned from real sports for gambling, yet the object of poker i to
gamble.
No disrespect to Kenny Rogers, but I'm plenty good at flushing money down the toilet on my
own. If you really want to lose cash
fa t, try driving through Univer ity
Heights at 38 mph.
Another non-sport? NASCAR.
Here come the angry e-mails. But,
I don't care.
Driving a car is not an athletic
feat. If they were driving to a stadium and then running around the
track. well, then, that would be different. But no. They're ju t pushing
a pedal.
Sports en1ail running. jumping,
diving and, in some ca es, biting
your opponent' ear off.
But my problem with NASCAR
don't end with its lack of physicality. How about afcty? How about
cars going nearly 200 mph?
Our culture grumbles over cxy
adverti ing, but kid can "watch
sports" and see a fiery car wreck.
lsn 't that what every 8-year-old
needs? To see his idol burned alive
in the Toys R Us 400.
Then there's horse racing. This
mainly exists for those compulsive
gamblers who, if not for sports,
would bet on the weather.
But seriously, do you really think
young colts dream of winning the
Preaknes ?
No. Horses have few ambitions
in life. The e are: to gallop, to avoid
the glue factory and, in some very
rare cases, to be the talking star of
a I 960s itcom.
And with all thi mes about
what constitutes sport, you'd think
we could rely on the experts-the
Olympic , Jesse Owens, Kerri
Strug, the 1980 U.S. hockey team.
The e performance have defied the odd , in pired the human
pirit, and transcended geopolitics.
But, lately, even the Olympics have
begun to lose it.
The Games announced they will
di continue baseball and oftball in
2012.
That's right. Baseball isn't a
sport, but shooting is. And it makes
sense. Why should a kid be working
on his curveball when he could Jearn
to shoot with deadly precision from
hundred of yards away?
Inevitably, I'm going to get a
letter saying, ''I'd like to see you
do what these 'non athletes' do."
And I can't.
But I also can't sing "Dixieland"
in Hebrew or eat 30 hot dogs in a
minute.
If "Jake can't do it" were criterion for sport, we'd all be watching
"Find Your Car Keys" on ESPN2.
