    Novice river runners and backcoun-try hikers may want to rethink theiroutdoor activities this month becauseof rapidly changing conditions frommelting snow packs.

    The Bureau of Land Managementissued river and ash ooding ad-visories for the Colorado, Dolores,Green, San Rafael and White riversin Utah, advising any public landvisitors to be aware of unpredictableash ooding. The waters in these

    rivers, the BLM said, can rise dra-matically in a short time. BLM of-cials said the above-average amountsof precipitation and rapid snow meltsare creating some of the highest riverows and most unpredictable ashoods in decades.

    These situations arent normal forthis time of year, said Aaron Curtis,recreation program lead for BLM i nthe Utah State Ofce. We want tomake sure that safety is at the topof the list when people are makingplans.

    B y M E G A N P E A R S O NWhen students rst join ROTC, they

    are thrust into a life of early morningworkouts, combat training and week-end warfare simulations.

    It denitely takes a special kind ofperson to keep up with the rigorousstrain, both physical and mental, thatArmy cadets are put under. For some-one who wasnt even planning on join-ing the Army ROTC, Joel Woodruff

    has really madea name for him-self by receivingone of the high-est rankings inthe nation.

    The count-less hours of

    p r e p a r a t i o nthese studentsmust endureare evaluated in

    a nal test for Army placement, theLeadership Development AssessmentCourse. This national ranking test isthe equivalent of the GRE, MCAT orLSAT for Army cadets. Once the ca-dets have nished their ROTC train-ing, they go to LDAC in Washingtonwith cadets from across the nationand compete for placements on theArmys national ranking list. Cadetsthat place high on the list get to choosewhat branch of the Army they willserve in.

    Juggling school, work and a sociallife is already a balancing act, butBYU students also hold the responsi-bility to go forth and serve.

    Many students try to incorporateservice while managing their livesand schedules, but it seems to takeconscious effort.

    My calling [as a missionary coun-cil member] helps me with specicactivities to serve those in my ward,said Dan Soto, a senior studying elec-trical engineering. Each week I makea goal to serve two different peopleand that allows me to nd those oppor-tunities that wouldnt be so availableotherwise.

    Although callings enable studentsto reach out to others, not everyonehas a similar calling to Sotos. In fact,many students struggle to be activelyinvolved.

    A group of Iraqi journalists offereda unique perspective on their profes-sion in a BYU panel discussion Friday.

    In a packed-house visit with Depart-ment of Communications students andfaculty, the journalists addressed thedifference between reporting in theU.S. and Iraq.

    Wisam Fadhil, professor of journal-ism and deputy dean of Media Studiesat Baghdad University, said each jour-nalist present from Iraq has receiveddeath threats.

    We will not give up be cause we lovethis profession, Fadhil said. [Stu-dents at BYU] may stress about things,

    but in Iraq we worry about our lives.Fadhil said Iraq has roughly 85 TV

    stations and 45 radio stations.Hamzah Hussein Shallal, senior re-

    porter at Al-Iraqiya TV, said the closeryou can be to the events you are cover-ing, the more credible you will be inyour reporting. Shallal has receivednumerous awards for his news cover-age during various wars in Iraq. Headvised students to set their emotions

    and feelings aside when reporting andtry and be as professional as possibleat all times.

    Naza Mohammed Abdullah, seniorreporter at Al-Sumariya TV, was theonly woman journalist in attendancewith the group. She said she is excitedto work in the re al world but said it ismarkedly different from college.

    Hollywood movie magic cantcompare to the real-life 17 miraclesbrought to life in a new LDS lmabout the Willie Handcart Companyof pioneers.

    The film 17 Miracles followsthe historic trek of the Willie Hand-cart Company pioneers. Following

    the counsel of the prophet BrighamYoung to gather at Zion, these Latter-day Saints left Liverpool, England, inMay 1856 and arrived in the Sa lt LakeValley that November after enduringsome of the harshest trials experi-enced by the pioneers.

    The company took as few possessionsas possible, daily rations were constant-ly reduced and resources were extreme-ly limited along the trail. Traveling byhandcart, plagued by the winter season

    and constantly threatened by wolves,the pioneers often had to slowly watchtheir loved ones die as they sufferedfrom hardships such as starvation, ill-ness and freezing temperatures.

    Preliminary tests found that bean sproutsand other sprout varieties from an or-ganic farm in the Uelzen area, between thenorthern cities of Hamburg and Hannover,

    could be connected to infected people in veGerman states, Lower Saxony AgricultureMinister Gert Lindemann said.

    There were more and more indicationsin the last few hours that put the focus onthis farm, Lindemann said at a news con-ference.

    Many restaurants involved in the out-break had received deliveries of the sprouts,which are often used in salads, Lindemannsspokesman, Gert Hahne, told The Associ-ated Press.

    Missouri levee breach prompts evacuations in IowaSix hundred residents in southwest Iowa

    were ordered Sunday to evacuate their homesafter the Missouri River breached a leveeacross the border in Missouri.

    The evacuation covers nearly half of thetown of Hamburg, said Stefanie Bond, spokes-woman for the Iowa Department of Home-land Security and Emergency Management.Residents, most of them on the south side ofthe city of 1,141, are being told to get out within24 hours. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineersreported a levee was breached Sunday morn-ing south of Hamburg in Missouris AtchisonCounty. The corps Col. Robert Ruch said crewshad been working Saturday on another issuenear the breach and all workers were evacu-ated. The corps declined to release furtherdetails.

    Gen. Derek Hill, head of the Iowa Depart-ment of Homeland Security and EmergencyManagement, characterized the breach as aboil a leak that shoots out like a smallgeyser that was 1 inch to 1 1/2 inches indiameter.

    Iowa sent a Blackhawk helicopter Sundayto drop roughly 1,000-pound sandbags on thelevee, Hill said, adding it was too dangerous touse ground crews. It was not known how longthe work would take.

    Its a technique thats been used before bythe corps, he said. Theres no guarantees butwe hope it will (work).

    Rhonda Wiley, emergency managementdirector for Atchison County, Mo., said anothernearby levee had a similar break Saturday,but Wiley said crews were able to repair it.

    MAJDAL SHAMS, Golan Heights (AP) Israeli troops on Sunday battled hundredsof pro-Palestinian protesters who tried toburst across Syrias frontier with the GolanHeights, killing a reported 20 people andwounding scores more in the second out-break of deadly violence in the border area inless than a month.

    The clashes, marking the anniversary ofthe Arab defeat in the 1967 Mideast war, drewIsraeli accusations that Syria was orchestrat-ing the violence to shift attention away froma bloody crackdown on opposition protestsat home. The marchers, who had organizedon Facebook, passed by Syrian and U.N. out-posts on their way to the front lines.

    The Syrian government is trying tocreate a provocation, said Israels chiefmilitary spokesman, Brig. Gen. Yoav Mor-dechai.

    WASHINGTON Sarah Palininsisted Sunday that history wason her side when she claimed thatPaul Reveres famous ride wasintended to warn both Britishsoldiers and his fellow colonists.

    You realize that you messedup about Paul Revere, dont you?Fox News Sunday anchor ChrisWallace asked the potential 2012presidential candidate.

    I didnt mess up about PaulRevere, replied Palin, a paidcontributor to the network.

    Part of his ride was to warnthe British that were alreadythere. That, hey, youre not goingto succeed. Youre not going totake American arms. You are notgoing to beat our own well-armedpersons, individual, private mili-tia that we have, she added. Hedid warn the British.

    Palin, who again said she hasnot decided whether to run forpresident, was asked about the

    Revolutionary War hero duringa stop Thursday in Boston on herEast Coast bus tour.

    He who warned the Britishthat they werent gonna be ta-kin away our arms by ringingthose bells, and makin sure ashes riding his horse throughtown to send those warningshots and bells that we were go-ing to be sure and we were goingto be free, and we were going tobe armed.

    Palins brush with the nationshistory came toward the end ofher One Nation bus tour thatgenerated intense interest asshe traveled from Washingtonto New England. Along the way,she steadfastly refused a milliontimes to say whether she wasrunning for president.

    Im publicizing Americanaand our foundation and how im-portant it is that we learn aboutour past and our challenges andvictories throughout Americanhistory, so that we can success-fully proceed forward, Palinsaid in the broadcast interview.Its not a campaign tour.

    Out of the thousands of ca-dets, Woodruff, 26, a recentgraduate from BYU, scored

    high enough on the nationallist that the Army let himchoose his branch of the mili-tary, and he chose the medi-cal route so he could become aMedevac pilot.

    A military board picksabout 25 people out of the na-tion each year and I waschosen to go into the Medevacpilot program, so I lucked out,Woodruff said with a laugh .

    Medevac pilots have to bespecially trained because of theintense missions they performwhile unarmed.

    The difference between anormal pilot and a Medevacpilot is that the Medevac piloties in without any armored

    men, Woodruff said. Theirsole purpose is to pick up the

    wounded and take them to ahospital or a base where theycan get medical care.

    Lt. Jarom Ricks works forBYUs Army ROTC and wentthrough LDAC in 2009. He saidstudents are evaluated on theirleadership abilities along withtheir physical and mental capa-bilities.

    LDAC is a stressful situa-tion; they do that on purpose,Ricks said. When youre beingevaluated while youre tiredand stressed; its a good way totest your leadership abilities.

    Ricks said he could tellWoodruff was going to be suc-cessful in the military the dayhe met him.

    There are people who justhave innate leadership skills,he said. Joel is someone who Isaw as very responsible. Hes agood example of someone whocan come here, pay attention,be responsible and go to anygreat military school with-out any prior military back-ground.

    Brad Reeder, 21, a senior ma- jorin g in biology, also wantsto go into the medical eld of

    the Army. He will be going toLDAC this summer.If youre not nervous for

    LDAC, youre not traini ng hardenough, Reeder said. Literal-ly, you take all youve learnedin ROTC and you go for yourbig, nal exam but you dontknow whats going to happen orwhat situation theyre going tothrow at you, so you real ly haveto be on top of your game.

    After LDAC, every cadet isput on the Order of Merit List,which ranks every cadet start-ing at the No. 1 spot. Based onthe placement of the score, ca-dets gets to choose their branchof choice on a rst-come, rst-served basis. Reeder said the

    training BYU ROTC offers en-ables cadets to score high.

    Joel Woodruff scored reallyhigh on the OML, Reeder said.BYU tends to put out reallyhigh level cadets on the OML.Yes, ROTC trains toward theLDAC, but more importantly,they train toward being an of-cer in the Army they dontwant to train you for a test.

    Besides maxing his physicaltness tests, doing exception-

    ally well academically and thehigh rankings from LDAC,Woodruff also received theGeorge C. Marshall award fromhis battalion for his outstand-ing performance in ROTC.

    I would say that I havetrouble balancing my life theway I want to balance it, saidJennifer Boyle, a senior fromSt. George. I must admit thatvolunteering is not my highestpriority, but when the opportu-nity presents itself I am alwaysup to part icipate somehow.

    Often, such as in Boylescase, the issue is nding thetime and activity most conve-nient for them.

    However, students can volun-

    teer at the Center for Serviceand Learning according totheir interests and time frame,whether its on campus or in

    the community.I believe there is an activity

    that each person is passionateabout and that they can serve

    where theyre passionate, saidDallin Graham, an ofce assis-tant at the center. We have somany opportunities and thereare so many ways to incorpo-rate service in what you are al-ready doing. Instead of spend-ing a whole bunch of money ona date, you can plant owers orwatch children and those areactivities that help you get toknow each other and help yougrow.

    A student with limited timecan visit 2330 WSC and do oneof the many stop and serve proj-ects, which include coloring,stitching and more, Grahamsaid. If volunteers wish to learnabout activities happening in

    the community, they can ndthem at centerforservice.byu.edu.

    Often, motivation and ac-

    tive participation in serviceinterferes with school or work,but in the most recent GeneralConference many LDS leaders

    encouraged members to ndopportunities to serve.

    President Henry B. Eyringspoke on The Church of JesusChrist of Latter-day Saintswelfare program and how theneeds of Heavenly Fatherschildren will always be pres-ent.

    The principles at the foun-dation of the Church welfareprogram are not for only onetime or one place, he said.Those principles are spiritualand eternal. For that reason,understanding them and put-ting them down into our heartswill make it possible for us tosee and take opportunities tohelp whenever and wherever

    the Lord invites us.To recognize those opportu-nities can be difcult for stu-dents with a demanding sched-

    ule, but Sarah Bowers, a juniorstudying humanities, said ser-vice should take top priority inour lives.

    You just have to make time.You must put the Lord rst inyour life or everything elsewill fall out of place, Bowerssaid. Plus youre really hereto serve people your mainreason here is to build up thekingdom.

    Some students learned inadvance to schedule their timewisely so they can be open toservice opportunities aroundthem.

    Im trying to improve onhow I do service, said GrantEmery, a junior studying busi-ness management. What I dois schedule everythin g I have todo and try to stay ahead enoughso that when I see people need

    help I can drop everything andhelp them.Even though juggling tasks

    and making the time is neces-

    sary, service also benets theperson volunteering.

    I remember going and set-ting up Christmas trees for

    poor elderly people and thatwas very valuable, Boyle said.I had a big test the next day,but it was worth it to see thesepeoples faces and feeling likepeople cared about them.

    Bishop H. David Burton alsospoke at General Conference onthe need for everyone to serveto develop eternal attributes.

    As sons and daughters ofGod, we cannot inherit the fullmeasure of eternal life withoutbeing fully invested in caringfor each other while we arehere on earth, he said. It is inthe benevolent practice of sac-rice and giving of ourselves toothers that we learn the celes-tial principles of sacrice and

    consecration.With such a high demand forservice, some students mightfeel pressured to become in-

    volved in big activities, butsmall things also make a dif-ference.

    It doesnt take a lot of time

    to smile at someone or tell afriend how great you thinkthey are, said Rachel Morri-son, a senior from Lausanne,Switzerland. People some-times need to just take a stepback from the stresses of schooland work and notice the peoplearound them.

    Many students also ndservice activities can enablethem to make new friends orstrengthen the relationshipsthey have with others.

    You learn to love [people]because you are giving them apart of you, said Ruben Vilo-rio, a sophomore studying busi-ness management. You sharewith them your talents and

    they appreciate it, which makesyou feel special. Everybodywants to be around someonethat makes them feel special.

    Make it atop priority

    Curtis also said becauseUtah has had a cooler springand a larger-than-normalsnowpack in the mountains,there is uncertainty aboutwhen snowpacks will fullymelt. He cautioned anyone par-ticipating in outdoor activitiesaround snow packed areas or

    rivers to know their limita-tions and expertise.

    Typically weve seen thosesnow melts come through al-ready, and thats why we wantto make people aware that itstaking longer than normal,Curtis said.

    Several popular canyoneer-ing locations are also underflash-flooding advisories, in-cluding Little Wild Horse andChute and Crack Canyons inthe San Rafael Swell, as wellas Spring Creek Canyon andthe Kanarra Creek Falls nearCedar City.

    River runners are likely tosee or encounter large debris,

    stronger undertows, fastercurrents and higher-class rap-ids. Theresa Butler, owner ofMoab Rafting and Canoe Com-pany, said the Colorado River isclogged with debris from treesand vegetation right now. But-ler, as an experienced boater,warned novice boaters to stayoff the water until after June20.

    I would denitely say forvisitors to book guided tripswith professionals, Butlersaid. Theres a time and aplace for beginners, but thismonth would not be the monthfor mom and dad and the two7-year-olds.

    What you say and writehas a profound and very im-portant impact on people,Abdullah said. It is a positionof responsibility. Lives of oth-ers can be put in danger if youare not careful.

    In response to questions,the journalists encouragedstudents to gain as much expe-rience as possible. They saidsimply going to school willnot make you a journalist.The journalists also said thesecurity issue in Iran is theirbiggest obstacle in reporting,but they hope to help createa more stable and secure en-vironment over the next fewyears.

    Brad Rawlins, Communica-tions Department chair, saidthe journalists told him af-ter the panel discussion this

    would be one of their mostmemorable experiences of thetrip.

    The panel discussion be-tween the Iraqi journalistsand communications studentsprovided a lively interactionbetween cultures and ideas,Rawlins said. What they hadin common, a love of journal-ism and free speech, provideda bridge that allowed under-standing and empathy to beshared. I believe we learnedthat there is more we have incommon than we have differ-ences.

    along with familiar shorts likeTreasure in Heaven: The JohnTanner Story, said he spenthours personally researching journals and records to best de-pict the severe but miraculousexperiences of the pioneers.Many of these journals were atthe Harold B. Lee Library onBYU Campus.

    We are without wagons, des-titute of clothing and could notcarry it if we had it, wrote LeviSavage, who was portrayed inthe lm as an extremely hum-ble and faithful leader of the pi-oneers. We must go as we are.

    Actor Jasen Wade said he en- joyed studying Savages jour-nal accounts to get a true senseof who he was.

    It becomes very real to you,very personal, he said. Itsnot just about making a movie,its about being a part of thishistory.

    Wade said he hopes the lminspires people to learn aboutchurch history, or just historyin general.

    To me, the film is aboutfinding hope no matter howhard it is, he said. Youll gaina real appreciation for whatthey might have gone through.

    Christensen said while it isimportant to show what the

    pioneers endured, his focus forthe lm was to relay the greatstrength and hope of redemp-tion they possessed.

    After I started writing andcompiling, I was hooked, hesaid. Theyre true storieswere telling and that makes itso much more powerful.

    For the scenes portrayingthe grueling winter of 1856, theactors and extras momentarilyexperienced the pioneers tri-als.

    When its zero degrees, andyou dont have a coat but maybea shawl, its miserable, Chris-tensen said. Those actors andextras were so terrific, theystuck with it.

    Christensen was also able tocontact descendants of the Wil-lie Handcart Company. Thesedescendants were often able toprovide additional resourcesand many added a unique as-pect to the lm by performingas extras.

    When we would film themiracles, there was this elec-tricity in the air, Christensensaid. I would have people whohadnt read the script come upand say, Did that really hap-pen? I cant say I saw it withmy own eyes, but we told thestories as they were told by thepeople they happened to. Andthats rewarding.

    Christensen said he hopesthe lm helps audiences realizeif people have enough faith andperseverance, they can retaina Christlike goodness throughtrials and hardship.

    We have a very rich historyas members of the Church,Christensen said. There areso many great stories thathave not been told that deserveto be. There are so many won-derful people who very oftenwerent the greatest of lead-ers in any sense they were just people t rying t o do whatsright. They deserve the honor,and we deserve to be exposedto their stories and learn f romthem.

    Student Michael McCainsaid he recommends seeingthe lm because the depictionof the miracles are incrediblymoving, but not overbearing.

    They felt like real events,McCain said. It wasnt likethey had burning testimonieswith hallelujahs every step ofthe way. They were faithful, butnot cloyingly so.

    17 Miracles premiered onFriday and is now playing inselect Utah theaters. More in-formation about the lm can befound at 17miracles.com.

    While playing rugby forBYU, Tua Fale realized Amer-ican rugby was strugglingand why: No one sells rugbyproducts in America becausethe market isnt large, but themarket isnt large because noone puts effort into growing it.

    So rugby teams continued

    paying foreign companies forthe supplies to play, and thatmoney would go into growingforeign rugby.

    Rugby outside the UnitedStates was booming, whilerugby in America struggledbecause no one was willing towork with such a small market.

    But Fale decided he wouldtake the risk and create a newcompany to build Americanrugby in the United States atthe grassroots level, by pro-viding the clubs and teamswith affordable, quality rugbyequipment.

    With the help of family andfriends, Fale started VanguardRugby with his cousin Taylor

    Moore, and already they sup-ply custom balls to the ma- jorit y of clubs and tea ms inAmerica.

    He did this because whilerugby is popular in Europe,

    Asia and Australia, it hasntgrown in America, largely be-cause of the lack of money inthe market, Fale said.

    I saw a lot of the rugbyworld sitting and waiting,Fale said. They were sittingand waiting for someone togrow the sport, for somekind of billionaire to comeand invest half of his fortunein rugby. Obviously I didntthink that would happen, so I

    thought there had to be somekind of way to start the move-ment, to help rugby accelerateits growth.

    Fale said a lot of these ideascame to him while he was stillplaying rugby for BYU.

    I was with BYU, and at thetime BYU was still as success-ful as it is now, but they werehaving a hard time gettingmoney, Fale said. For me inmy mind I wa s like, Wow, BYU,one of the top programs in thenations, who sends people tothe national team and sendsplayers to go professional inEurope and if theyre hav-ing a hard time financingthemselves and meeting their

    obligations as a rugby team then what about other teams?Grassroots rugby in Ameri-

    ca is struggling, according tothe Vanguard Rugby website,and this disconnect with for-

    eign companies, such as Can-terbury and Gilbert, is wherethe idea of Vanguard Rugby

    came from, Fale said.American rugby was bleed-ing money, Fale said. Youwould buy from Canterburyand Gilbert, and a very mini-mal percentage would comeback into building us. Most ofthe money would go into pay-ing for advertising in Austra-lia and Europe and Asia wherethe market is a lready large.

    Taylor Moore, a businessmajor who is also the chiefnancial ofcer of VanguardRugby, said this is what makesthe situation difcult.

    It is a small niche market,Moore said. American Rugbyisnt a business that youre go-ing to make billions of dollars

    off of.Because of this, most com-panies dont want to try, butdespite this small market,Vanguard Rugby wants tohelp American Rugby grow

    and develop its own identity,Fale said.

    Were building a brandthats solely dependent on thesuccess of the American rugbymarket, Fale said. Thats theidea behind Vanguard werenot trying to make money over-seas, our success is dependenton American rugby. Were theofcial ball across the UnitedStates.

    Moore agreed with this sen-

    timent.If we were just interestedin making money, then wedprobably just charge a higherprice and not worry aboutsponsoring tournaments andstuff like that, but we like thesport and were i nvolved, andso we choose to invest, Mooresaid.

    Fale said he recognizes thechallenges and admits it willbe an uphill battle.

    If Gilbert and Canteburydecided to come out now,theyd probably squish me butthey dont care about Ameri-can rugby, Fale said. T hatspart of the adventure, real-izing that there are going to

    be challenges. Nothing goodin my life has come when itsbeen a walk in the park. Thatmakes me work hard and ap-preciate whatever little suc-cess I get.

    A small town isnt bigenough for two con men in astory of deceit, romance andbetrayal.

    The Salt Lake Hale CentreTheatre presents Dirty Rot-ten Scoundrels, the musicalbased on the original filmstarring Steve Martin and Mi-chael Caine, Tuesday throughJuly 23.

    Dirty Rotten Scoundrelshas received 11 Tony nomina-tions and 10 Drama Desk nomi-nations on Broadway.

    Hale Centre Theatres ad-aptation will feature elabo-rate costumes, entertainingchoreography and a decadent,transforming set, according toa news release.

    Set designer Kacey Udy hascreated backgrounds that re-flect the emotional develop-ment of main character, Law-rence Jameson.

    Dave Tinney, the shows di-rector, choreographer and leadrole, has created choreographythat is both high-energy andcomedic. Musical directionwill be led by Kelly DeHaan.

    Mark Knowles, who plays theslick con man, Jameson, saidthe show is perfect for the HaleCentre stage in Salt Lake City.

    I love performing at theHale Centre Theatre, he saidin a Facebook message. Withthe intimate surroundings ofthe theater in the round, youcan hear the audience react,even if its as quiet as a suddenintake of breath or a sympa-thetic sigh.

    Knowles said he especiallylikes performing in fast-pacedshows like this one.

    I love playing broad com-edy, he said. It ies along atbreakneck speed, then on rareoccasions slows down justenough to tug at your heart-strings.

    Knowles said he believes the

    musical will keep audiencemembers engaged.

    Dirty Rotten Scoundrelsis a hilarious romp from startto nish, he said. Audiencemembers can expect to be

    entertained from curtain tobows. Theyll wonder how twohours can y by so quickly.

    Musical theater is perfectbecause the score of the musicenhances your experiences,

    Knowles said.You as an audience mem-

    ber nd yourself cheering onthe actor, hoping that shelldazzle you when she belts outthat awesome money note,

    then applauding like the Dick-ens when she nails it, he said.

    Based in the French Riv-iera, Dirty Rotten Scoun-drels unveils the story of twoscammers, one a white-collar(Jameson), the other a blue(Freddy Benson). After takingBenson under his wing, Jame-son quickly becomes aware ofhis juvenile style of conning.The town grows smaller forthe scam artists as their pur-suits become tangled. Theycrack a deal the rst personto steal $50,000 from an heir-ess gets to stay in town and theother must leave.

    Jackie Westenskow, an HaleCentre Theatre season ticketholder from Murray, said ina Facebook message she is al-ways amazed at the caliber ofshows put on by the theater,and Dirty Rotten Scoundrelsis no exception.

    During the show Im ex-pecting to check out of real-ity for a couple of hours andbecome a part of a fun story,she said. I know I will enjoythe talent of the cast a nd crew.The sets are always amazing. Ihave no doubt Ill enjoy everyminute of it.

    Westenskow said she goes toshows with family and anyonewho enjoys theater, especiallymusicals.

    Musicals stick, she said.The music and lyrics some-how stay with me long after theshow. I enjoy seeing the danc-ing and singing come together.Life should be a musical.

    When BYU students end upin jail, its not usually somethingthe university is too happy about.But thats not the case for BYUnursing students, who earnedclinical hours this term by pro-viding important medical ser-vices at Utah County Jail.

    Nursing students enrolledin the At-Risk Populations sec-tion of Nursing 401 402, GlobalHealth Human Diversity, havebeen earning hours at the UtahCounty Jail for years now.

    During a shift at the jail, thenursing students perform blood,tuberculosis and other tests fordozens of inmates and also shad-ow nurses and doctors who workat the jail. The students are al-ways accompanied by an ofcerand one other staf f member.

    Despite safety precautions,many students were nervous therst time they went to the jail.

    Samantha Curtis, a senior fromBonners Ferry, Idaho, majoringin nursing, said all the precau-tions might have added to heranxiety.

    When I went for the rst time,we were warned that some of theinmates might try to manipulateus to get information, Curtissaid. We were told not to be toofriendly to the inmates.

    Regan Erickson, a senior fromGlendora, Calif., majoring innursing, also said she was ner-vous the rst time because shedidnt know what kinds of peopleshe would be dealing with.

    I didnt know how many [in-mates] would be rapists, murder-ers or child molesters, Ericksonsaid. I was going to be in a roomwith them and a needle, so I wasa little worried about my safety.

    However, most of the studentssaid their anxiety faded shortlyinto their rst shift at the jail.

    While in jail, most of the in-mates try to exercise good behav-ior because acting out can have

    harsh consequences. A jail dif-fers from a prison because mostof the inmates are waiting to besentenced or serving short sen-tences. If the inmates misbehavein jail, their sentences are oftenextended.

    Peggy H. Anderson, the sec-tions professor, said the class al-lows students to gain much morethan just nursing experience.

    Its an educational and a cul-tural experience for the studentswhen they go, Anderson said.Its an eye-opening experienceto see people dealing with addic-

    tion and other patterns of behav-ior.

    During the spring term, stu-dents are required to completeabout 80 clinical hours.

    While only a portion of thosehours were done at the jail thissemester, the hours workingwith inmates often have thelargest impact on the students.Curtis said she was taught bythe doctors there not to judge theinmates.

    They said not to look at themas criminals because its not ourplace to judge, Curtis said. I re-alized the people in there arentalways bad people but many ofthem just made bad decisions.

    Anderson said she was pleasedwith students reactions to the ex-perience.

    One of our goals is to get ridof our preconceived notionsand learn to care for all of Godschildren regardless of circum-stance, the professor said. Ithink this experience really al-lowed the students to do that.

    My Morning Jacket seemsto fit in nowhere and every-where, all at the same time.The Kentucky natives havebuilt a career on musical al-chemy, melding elements ofcountless music genres andsub-genres into their ownunique cocktail, while some-how still staying true to theirun-ironic southern charm.One cant really pin a label onthem theyre just too slip-pery for that.

    Their new record, Circuit-al, reigns in the schizophre-nia somewhat. And though itmight not have the energy oftheir other recent work, Cir-

    cuital still showcases theever-intuitive genius that set

    the band in a class of its own.On the surface, Circuital

    feels more subdued and pa-tient than MMJs last couple of

    albums. But that doesnt meanthe songs are any less ambi-

    tious. Rather, that ambition isslightly restructured. Insteadof compartmentalizing the

    diversity from song to song,Circuital mixes all the ingre-dients together, then spreadsthem out over 10 songs.

    Indeed, this mixture makesthe musical references lessdiscernible than before. And,at times, such mixtures arepretty thrilling, none moreso than on Holdin On ToBlack Metal inspired bya song the band heard on a1960s Thai-pop compilationCD. The track creeps in sub-tly with bubbling bursts ofhorns, only to be interrupt-ed by the hook an exhila-rating, menacing chant, sungby what sounds like an armyof foreign youth. (Think

    the childrens choir in PinkFloyds Another Brick In

    The Wall.)Recorded in a church gym-

    nasium in their Louisville,

    Ky., hometown, MMJ pur-posely wanted Circuitalto be a more concise, con-tained album. They certai nlyachieve this, but maybe at acost. Most of these new songsare just not as strong as ontheir previous two albums

    mai nly bec ause they lackthat energy. This patient tonemight help Circuital agebetter than the bands otherwork. Or it might not. Thealbums fate, like everythingelse MMJ does, is pretty un-predictable.

    Regardless, Circuitalis the sound of a band un-relentingly following i tsmany muses. And, clearly,

    My Morning Jacket wouldnthave it any othe r way.

    When camping in the red-wood forest, one would think itwas the silence that is inspiring,but for Glenn Jakins, the exactopposite was the case.

    A few years back, on a fam-ily outing, Jakins, founder andCEO of Humless, found himselfannoyed when the silence wasbroken by the generators ofneighboring RVs. These noisygenerators are the inspirationfor Humless, a silent generator.

    Jakins teamed up with PeterRansom who at the time wascaptain of the BYU FormulaHybrid Racing team needingsomeone who understood howto work with batteries. Ransomtook the ideas and developed anddesigned the generators.

    As this idea was being devel-oped, one of the big things wewanted to do was to reach outand provide a solution to the de-veloping world in Africa, Ran-som said.

    Humless has developed threemodels of silent generators:Roadrunner, Sentinel and otheroptions for government housingprojects in developing countries.

    The Roadrunner weighs about12 pounds, charges in about two

    hours and can sustain a laptopfor up to eight hours. The Sen-tinel weighs in at 40 pounds,charges in two and a half hoursand can power a refrigeratorfor a full day. Both models areequipped to charge with anypower source available, includ-ing windmills, solar panels,hand cranks, car batteries or bysimply plugging it in.

    In four months, 70 Roadrun-ners and 50 Sentinels have beenbeen sold.

    Sales are far greater thananticipated, Jakins said. They

    are about double what we pre-dicted.

    The generators have a widevariety of applications. For thisreason, they are still trying togure out who theyre sellingto, Jakins said.

    We dont know who our cus-tomers are yet, Jakins said.

    So far, Humless silent gen-erators have seen the mostsuccess among those seekingemergency preparedness. Thelithium battery technology al-lows for a lighter, longer last-ing charge that is practical for

    emergency use.The cool thing about it, you

    can just put it in your closet,Ransom said. There is no gas.You dont have to start the thingor do any maintenance to it.Charge it up, put it in your clos-et, and if there is a power outage,it is literally as easy as pluggingit in and hitting the switch.

    Humless generators are rela-tively expensive and 75 percentof the cost is the battery. Accord-ing to the companys website,www.humless.com, the Road-runner sells for $495 and theSentinel is priced at $1,495. Pric-es can be expected to drop andsales to increase as the technol-ogy becomes more mainstream.

    As the price comes down, Iam sure it will ood al l sorts ofmarkets, Ransom said. Wevealready seen a 15 percent de-crease in price.

    St. John Holloway, Humlessemployee, said students are inthe position to be pioneers inthis technology. He said theHumless generators go well withBYUs motto.

    It has the ability to be porta-ble, which you look at BYU andwhat is the saying, The worldis our campus, Holloway said.They [the Roadrunner and Sen-tinel] go hand in hand with thatphilosophy.

    Humless and loving it

    Kissinger discussesU.S.-China relations

    B y J O R D A N A D A M S

    The Orem Library shareda broadcast recently of No-bel Peace Prize winner Hen-ry Kissinger addressinghis unique experiences andpolitical views of relation-ships between the UnitedStates and China.

    [The United States]thinks our values are uni-versally valid, and wespread that around theworld, Kissinger said.The Chinese believe theirvalues are exceptional andunique.

    Kissinger served as U.S.Secretary of State from 1973to 1977, and also held theposition of assistant to thepresident for national secu-rity affairs. Kissinger hasmade several political visitsto China and feels that wemust be able to acknowledgedifferences to be able to ad-vance relationships.

    If we want to make realprogress in our country, no-body should claim a monop-oly on moral insight, Kiss-inger said. We cannot askthe Chinese to solve our do-mestic economic problems.

    Some individuals believethat U.S.-Chinese relationshave struggled to developand fear that some degreeof conflict could develop ina struggle for power, saidKissinger

    The only thing I ask is notto make conict an end to aproblem, Kissinger said.Its not a question of makinga great pronouncement onone occasion, but to act overa period of time at a momentwhen the world is facing thegreatest radical challengesthat has ever existed and inwhich cooperation betweenChina and the United Statesis imperative if we want toavoid a global confrontation.

    Despite three delays be-cause of protesters, Kiss-inger also fielded questionsfrom members of the audi-ence during the broadcast.One question asked Kiss-inger to share his responseto the debate over Israel andits borders.

    The fundamental prob-lem is that there is no gov-ernment right now that canmake any long-term com-mitment, he said. I amnot optimistic about anynegotiations for an overallpeace.

    The BYU mens lacrosse team,which now carries the braggingrights of being the 2011 MCLADivision I national lacrossechampions is looking to pre-pare for another championshipseason with plenty of returningtalent.

    Looking forward to nextyear is going to be exciting. Nowthe team has the belief and ex-perience of not only making it tothe championship tournament,but to make it to the champion-

    ship game and actually win itand being the best, said BYUhead coach Matt Schneck. Tohave that experience is some-thing the coaches and playerscan remember for the rest oftheir lives and grow from it asthey look forward to next sea-son as well.

    The players said they are con-dent and hopeful for an evenbetter 2012 season, after going20-3 this year, including a 10-8victory over Arizona State inthe national title game.

    I think the team next year isgoing to be even better than theteam this year, said team cap-tain Tyler Monteath. We only

    graduated three seniors, so themajority of the starters are com-ing back.

    Monteath, along with DanCole and Brian Mathay, were thelone seniors on the team. Someof the top players returning forthe Cougars in 2012 include TedFerrin, the teams leading scorerand assist man, Corey Gunder-son and Andrew Harding, aswell as goalie Wes Goar. Ferrinwas also on the 2007 BYU teamthat won a national champion-ship.

    The coaches and players areexcited to welcome the incomingfreshmen and said they are an-

    ticipating to have the best teamlineup yet.We are very excited about the

    incoming freshmen we know ofright now, Schneck said. Wehave about eight high school all-American freshmen coming inthis year, which is phenomenal.

    While the team waits in antic-ipation for the 2012 season, Sch-neck and returning players saidthey are determined to improvetheir game.

    We are very excited about theway the season turned out, Sch-neck said. We reached our goal.It was a very satisfying feeling,but we still have a lot of work leftto do.

    Schneck and the team arelooking forward to a relaxingsummer off, but Schneck plansto see the team back on the prac-tice eld on the rst day of theofcial school year. During theoff-season, however, Schneck

    said, he expects the team to keepin shape with workouts and en-courages the boys to join sum-mer league.

    The team is aware being mo-tivated is one of the challengesthat comes with reaching thislevel of success. Monteath saidthe teams goal is to duplicateand improve the effort displayedthis year.

    We need to maintain thework ethic of working hardnext year and not get too cocky,Monteath said.

    The players are looking for-ward to playing another seasonfor Schneck and the rest of the

    coaching staff, who are dedicat-ed to helping the mens team besuccessful year after year.

    They are specialists in dif-ferent aspects of the game, andwhen you put them all together,we are u nstoppable, said Cole,the national championshiptournament MVP. We are go-ing to be a force to be reckonedwith.

    Consistently one of the topprograms in the Division IMens Collegiate Lacrosse As-sociation, the BYU mens la-crosse team found its way tothe top again in 2011.

    The culmination of a seasonfull of highlights, includingan undefeated home record,came when the Cougars over-came an early decit to rattleoff ve second-quarter goalsin beating Arizona State 10-8in the national title game inlate May.

    Its the fourth MCLA Divi-sion I championship for BYU.

    Coach Matt Schneck is inhis second year and said howpleased he was with his team.

    The 2011 BYU lacrosseteam is a special group ofyoung men that demonstratedthat they are true championsboth on and off the eld, Sch-neck said in a news release af-ter winning the championshipgame.

    Senior Dan Cole garneredtournament MVP honors andhelped the Cougars controlpossession, winning face-offsconsistently throughout thetournament.

    There is no better way tonish than to go out on top,Cole said in a news release.This win means years of hardwork and dedication on every-

    ones part. From the coachesto each player, we all had tosacrice this year and it wasall worth it.

    Goalkeeper Matt Branden-burg broke his thumb thenight before the championshipgame, during a 14-11 seminalvictory over Colorado State,forcing freshman Wes Goar tostart in the net for the cham-pionship game. Following twosecond-half BYU penalties,Goar made two key saves that

    were critical for the Cougarsand he played an integral partin the teams win.

    We had 100 percent con-dence in Wes taking on thestarting role in goal headinginto this national champion-ship game, Schneck said.He was prepared and readyto take on the challenge. Heplayed an outstanding game.

    Assistant coach Jordan Har-ris said Goar had improved hisskills as a goalie, and it showed

    during the championship.With Wes we knew we had a

    big-time keeper, but we wantedto see more consistency out ofhim, Harris said in a newsrelease. He could have givenup and stopped working whenhe lost his starting job three-fourths of the way through theseason, but he did the opposite.He went back to work and be-came a better goalie, and itshowed on the biggest stage.

    The championship win was

    the teams 20th win of the sea-son, which gave the Cougars anal record of 20-3. BYU alsois now tied with Colorado Statefor the most MCLA nationalchampionships in league his-tory with four. Between theCougars last title, in 2007, andthe 2011 crown, Michigan hadwon three straight.

    Schneck reected on whathis rst championship as headcoach means to the lacrosseprogram.

    I am thril led for the entireprogram to have accomplishedsuch an incredible feat in oursecond year, Schneck said.This victory should be at-tributed to the dedicationof the entire coaching staff,team and supporters of BYUlacrosse.

    Another accomplishment

    this season was the lacrosseteam having some of its ga mesbroadcast nationwide onBYUtv. The rst game that wasbroadcast live was on March 15against the San Diego Toreros.

    Schneck implemented aplan to work with donorsand raise funds to get BYUlacrosse back on the air afterthree years. Schneck said hesgrateful for his team and fansall over the country to be ableto enjoy this.

    We are thrilled with theopportunity for lacrosse tobe broadcast once again onBYUtv, he said. We are es-pecially excited for our BYUlacrosse fans and alumni thatare living in many differentparts of the country. The Uni-versity and BYUtv have beengreat to work with.
