Ames
First phase of Duff construction begins Tuesday By Abigail.Barefoot iowastatedaily.com The city of Ames will be working on Duff Avenue, from Seventh Street to 13th Street starting Tuesday. The Duff Avenue project will consist of sanitary sewer repair, curb and gutter replacement, reconstruction of the Ninth Street intersection, sidewalk ramp replacement and milling and overlay with new asphalt on the existing driving lanes. The project is scheduled to be constructed in three phases. The first phase will close the inside lanes of traffic for the sanitary sewer work. The second phase will divert traffic to two-way on the existing southbound lanes to accommodate the curb re-
placements, half of the Ninth Street intersection, and the milling and overlay of the existing northbound lanes. The final phase will divert traffic to two-way on the existing northbound lanes to accommodate the curb replacements, the other half of the Ninth Street intersection, and the milling and overlay of the existing southbound lanes. The entire project should be completed the week of Oct. 26 or earlier. Traffic will be maintained at all times through the project including access to area businesses and Mary Greeley Medical Center. Vehicle access in or out of residential properties along Duff Avenue will not be allowed in order to maintain a safe traffic flow.

Students show off creativity Greek community gets hands-on with ice cream
Two ISU economics professors have found proof of Iowa’s durable economy. Dave Swenson and Liesl Eathington compiled a report evaluating the hit Iowa’s economy took after the 2008 flood, and they found that overall, the economy persevered and worked through the devastation. “We found that although the floods of 2008 and other related disasters had a profound and tragic impact on thousands of Iowa households and hundreds of Iowa businesses,” Swenson said, “the overall Iowa economy was able to absorb the devastation and continue to produce goods and services at a rate in excess of the national average that year.” Swenson said several factors allowed for the financial system to weather the storm, including the large and diverse Iowa City and Cedar Rapids economies. The team took about two years to collect its data
because that data is constantly changing and is not available right away Eathington for researchers to analyze. “ W e work as economists, that means that we Swenson are averse to actually speaking with human beings,” Swenson said. “Seriously, we didn’t talk with anyone. We don’t measure the economy by talking with people, we do it be evaluating secondary data that help us understand how the economy is changing over time.” The data Swenson and Eathington collected helped them to identify the hardest hit areas. They named six counties as “Very High Impact” areas: Black Hawk,

By Kayla.Schantz iowastatedaily.com For the next five weeks, eight members of the greek community will compete for a scholarship by trying to sell their own Cold Stone ice cream “creation” to the most customers. Cold Stone Creamery of Ames is holding its second annual Go Greek Scholarship Contest. Greek fraternities and sororities were invited to nominate one member of its chapter to participate. Each contestant had to invent his or her own Cold Stone Creation, which is a choice of a flavored ice cream blended with mix-ins, such as candy, nuts, fruit, cookies or sauces. The participant with the most purchased creation at the end of the allotted time period wins the scholarship. “We were just looking for ways to do something fun with the university,” said Stephan Siegel, owner of the Ames Cold Stone. “It gets our name out ... [and we can] give back to the community.” There are two rounds in the contest. The first round is from Sept. 6 to Sept. 26. The top five creations will then advance to the final round, from Sept. 27 to Oct. 17. During the rounds, the names and descriptions of the eight creations are displayed in the store. Points are awarded to each creation based on the size of the order bought, ranging from one point for a kids-size purchase to seven points for a 48-ounce purchase.

and a member of Pi Beta Phi sorority, was a participant in the contest last year. Her creation, named “Brownie Vengeance,” won second place. Sullivan said the members of her sorority supported her throughout the contest to help her win. “They all went and got ice cream a lot [and] I brought it home, too,” Sullivan said. Siegel said that the greek chapters do a lot of their own promoting for the contest. “It’s their initiative — their drive,” Siegel said. “They come up with creative ways to promote it and we’ll try to help
them.” Last year’s contest winner was Anna Ryneer, junior in kinesiology and health and a member of Chi Omega sorority. Her winning creation was called the “ChiOkieDokie,” which included cake batter ice cream with caramel, cookie dough and Oreo cookies. The amount of the scholarship depends each year on the number of greek chapters participating. This year with eight contestants the winner will receive a scholarship of up to $250.
The Ames chapter of Parents, Families, and Friends of Lesbians and Gays will be meeting at 7 p.m. Tuesday at 420 Kellogg Ave. for its September meeting. The speaker, Justin Uebelhor of One Iowa, will discuss the efforts of One Iowa and other supporters who are working to preserve marriage equality in the state of Iowa. The Ames PFLAG chapter has several functions in the Ames community. It provides support by offering a safe place for people to come together and share their
experiences. It also seeks to educate themselves as well as others in order to eliminate misinformation created by homophobia and ignorance. The PFLAG Chapter also campaigns for equal justice for gay, lesbian, bisexual as well as transgender individuals not only in the schools, but also in the communities, state, and the nation. Its main objective is to create a society that is healthy and respectful of human diversity. The Ames PFLAG Chapter meets on the second Tuesday of each month in the Paul Room of Youth and Shelter Services at 420 Kellogg Ave.

Local Ingredients. Craft Beers. Incredible Pizza. THE VWFP STORY Inspired Craftsmanship
Vesuvius Wood-Fired Pizza (VWFP) is inspired by traditional Neapolitan pizza craftsmanship and methods that use specific ingredients, including special wheat flour, fresh yeast, sea salt, fresh cow’s milk mozzarella, and Italian-style plum tomatoes. But VWFP goes further and updates the tradition by putting a local stamp on our pizzas. To take advantage of being located in one of the most productive agricultural regions in the world, we use as many locally produced ingredients as possible while still observing important elements of traditional Neapolitan pizza. We believe a similar reliance on superior local products is what led the Naples, Italy region to be the standard bearer for traditional pizza.
Our imported, handcrafted oven burns only seasoned hardwood and cooks pizzas at temperatures over 800 degrees, ensuring that the pizzas we produce are a reflection of the best of the traditional pizza makers of the past. A focus on craftsmanship also means that we are
committed to producing fresh dough every day. By taking advantage of the bounty around us and applying time-tested methodology, VWFP produces a pizza that is unlike any other, both traditional and contemporary, appealing and gratifying in every way.
A Family Business
The owners of VWFP, Scott and Deb Coldiron, moved their family from St. Paul, Minnesota back to Deb’s hometown of Dows, Iowa in 2009. Central Iowa seemed an ideal place to raise their children, Owen and Ruby. Moving back to the family farm was an opportunity for Scott and Deb to connect with a way of life that is for them simpler and more fulfilling.
VWFP is an expression of Scott and Deb’s interest in traditional craftsmanship, sustainable food production, and love of well made, simple food. Scott is a chef with many years of experience in a variety of restaurants and bakeries and runs VWFP day-to-day. Deb is an awardwinning designer and author of a series of non-fiction books for children and
handles the design and artistic needs of Vesuvius Wood-Fired Pizza.
The Name: Vesuvi-what?
Mount Vesuvius is the active volcano outside of Naples, Italy, the region that popularized pizza. The rich volcanic soil is an excellent environment for producing the special plum tomatoes used for pizza. Local water buffalo provided rich milk for producing the region’s signature mozzarella di bufala. The fiery furnace contained within Mount Vesuvius is an appropriate symbol for the intense heat of the traditional wood-burning oven of the early pizza makers.
The VWFP Promise
VWFP melds the best of traditional methods with the best local produce the Midwest has to offer to create Ames’ best pizza. And with an oven that burns at over 800 degrees, the lightning speed is just a bonus.
In addition to pizza, VWFP offers a rotating selection of fine micro brews, interesting wines, and inspired salads. Watch for live music and nightly specials. Limited time weekday lunch offer: Margherita Pizza & Soft Drink only $6.50, M-F 11 a.m.-2 p.m.

Iowa Democrats enjoy comfortable lead in polls
Counseling Services sees demand increase among ISU students
By Tyler.Kingkade iowastatedaily.com The American Future Fund released a poll last week showing Democrats to have a lead both in a generic ballot and by name in Iowa’s First, Second and Third District. The poll was conducted by Voter/ Consumer Research from Aug. 31 to Sept. 3. Past polling by the AFF in August found Republicans ahead. Incumbent Democrat U.S. Rep. Bruce Braley of the First District leads Republican challenger Ben Lange, 50-39. Rep. Dave Loebsack, Democrat in the Second District, leads his GOP opponent, Mariannette MillerMeeks, 47-39. Rep. Leonard Boswell (D-Iowa) now leads Republican state Sen. Brad Zaun, 48-39. All races showed roughly 10 percent of respondents to say they “don’t know,� but each dis-
trict showed more participants identiďŹ ed their selves as a Democrat than anything else. On the generic ballot, the results were mixed but close. In the previous AFF reBoswell leased poll, Boswell was behind Zaun, 45-38. Republicans Jeb Bush and Norm Coleman, among several Bush administration officials, serve as the heads of AFF. A news release sent out Loebsack by the AFF chose not to highlight Republicans lagging the polls, instead it focused on the disapproval of a proposed building of an Islamic community center in lower Manhattan. ™

students,â€? Ellens said. “For example, we don’t shorten therapy or limit their access to services just because we have high demand.â€? Students may visit the SCS office on the third oor of the Student Services building or call 294-5056 to make initial contact with counseling and set up a screening appointment. After a time is set, students will undergo an initial screening appointment to help them ďŹ nd the best form of counseling for their needs. Students may always contact SCS with an immediate crisis and will be seen the same day, as counselors have times set aside to meet with urgent cases. The wait to see a counselor is often shorter for ISU services than outside services. “My job here, and part of our mission statement, is that we want to help students be successful here at Iowa State,â€? Ellens said. SCS offers a variety of individual and group therapy sessions, a new biofeedback therapy program that can help with stress or anxiety among other issues and other therapy options. There are currently 13 to 14 ongoing group therapy sessions and 96 percent of students receiving any type of therapy from SCS said they found therapy helpful. SCS also offers career counseling, a short series of meetings that can help students discover the career path most applicable to them. While the average ISU student changes his or her major three times, 90 percent of students who undergo career counseling never change their major after their sessions are complete. “People are prioritizing their mental health and thus becoming healthier,â€? Ellens said. “We must be doing something right, as our demand is rising and we’re always seeking ways to improve what we do.â€?
Student Counseling Services, which offers individual and group therapy as well as other services to the student population, has seen a 10 percent increase in demand for services each year for the past ďŹ ve years. The increased demand has multiple probable causes, said Jeffrey Ellens, outreach coordinator and psychologist with SCS. He said it’s likely that with record enrollment, much of the increase is due to a larger number of students on campus. The trend mirrors a national increase of counseling use by university students. There is also less stigma surrounding mental health services, Ellens said. Students who may have been embarrassed to seek mental health services in the past may feel more conďŹ dent in doing so today. Counseling for younger people is also improving, making students with pre-existing conditions more able to attend college where they perhaps require additional counseling, Ellens said. “From the statistics that we calculate, one of the things we know is students who receive our services are 16 percent more likely to graduate than students who don’t receive counseling services,â€? Ellens said. With demand increasing at a steady rate, SCS employees use several strategies to ensure students are still receiving the care they need. “I really don’t know that the students themselves would feel the impact [of increased demand on counseling services]. That’s part of our job as professionals, to absorb that for the

Bremer, Butler, Johnson, Linn and Louisa. “High Impactâ€? counties included Benton, Cerro Gordo, Floyd and Muscatine. Those 10 counties accounted for 84 percent of household losses, 94 percent of business losses and 79 percent of other public infrastructure losses due to the ood. The ood also accounted for a short-term bump in the unemployment rate, but after a few months, that increasing number was due more to the recession. The government played a role in southern Iowa’s quick recovery. Federal and state government appropriations to the tune of $2.4 billion went to ood cleanup and reconstruction. A portion also went to helping homeowners and business owners recover. However, the money was only concentrated in 10 counties and did not account for the strength of the rest of the state’s resilient economy. As for the ood Ames endured in August, Swenson and Eathington anticipate no great hit to central Iowa’s economy. “These recent oods, while very damaging,â€? Swenson said, “did not have anything like the scope of coverage, nor the degree of damage, that we realized in 2008. More importantly, the oods did not appear to signiďŹ cantly affect farming, industry or business in general.â€?

Editorial
9/11 should be day of reverence, not controversy Nine years ago, 19 al-Qaeda operatives hijacked four U.S. airliners, orchestrating the deadliest terrorist attack ever perpetrated on American soil. A total of 2,977 people lost their lives that day, including 343 firefighters, 60 police officers, and nationals from 70 different countries. The events of that day, as well as their repercussions, have come to define the world as we know it. The events of the day — and the political and military actions they spawned — can often overshadow the sacrifices made and lives impacted in the wake of the chaos. The consequences of the day are more tangible than the reality, and nine years later, our memorials are still under construction. However horrific or violent its agenda may be, al-Qaeda must be stopped, along with all other forms of terrorism. Intolerance, prejudice and inequity may perpetuate the problem, but they are still no excuse for murdering civilians. Some have called 9/11 the Pearl Harbor of our generation. Say what you will about the motives and actions of the Japanese; they attacked a military target, with military weaponry. Attacking civilian targets using occupied civilian aircraft is beyond appalling. This new type of attack was something we were completely unprepared for and rang in an unmitigated tragedy. Terrorism solves nothing. If anything, 9/11 only served to widen the rift between Islam and the western world: people who couldn’t spell “mosque” 10 years ago now form opinions on the proposed locations of those thousands of miles away, and hate crimes against anyone resembling Arabic descent have skyrocketed. Equally disgusting is the wanton disregard with which 9/11 has been politicized. Some used the events of the day as album fodder, while others appeal to the sentiment and nostalgia for far less altruistic reasons. We’re talking to you Rudy Giuliani — bringing it up every five minutes is tacky. Then there are the folks who decide to “commemorate” the day with self-serving publicity stunts. We’re glad Rev. Terry Jones canceled his Quran-burning plans, what, with the universal condemnation from, well, everyone? It’s a shame he wasn’t able to stifle his stupidity before the protesting in Afghanistan cost two people their lives, but we’re hopeful the deaths stop there. So what are we to understand from this? What message are we to take from this tragedy as we look back on it? It should be our goal, as a culture, as a country, and as a world to learn from things like the tragedy on Sept. 11 nine years ago. The attack on our country was a product of ignorance. This ignorance caused a blind, zealous hatred so intense that it caused a few misguided men to think that killing nearly 3,000 people was the right thing to do. It is this ignorance and intolerance that should be the enemy that 9/11 revealed. This is our true enemy. This is what we should be fighting, and this is what should be remembered. Using 9/11 as a means to divide folks is contrary to the actions and heroism displayed in the following weeks and months. It shouldn’t be a call to war, a recruiting tool, a political grandstanding issue or an entrepreneurial endeavor. 9/11 should serve as a day of reverence — a day that supersedes prejudice and politics and pays respect to the lives shattered by the atrocities of extremism. Nothing more, nothing less.

Employment
The true degree gap By Yun.Kwak iowastatedaily.com
Engineering, LAS graduates actually have similar average incomes
T
here are times when I wonder why I chose my degree in psychology, and I’m sure there are others who think about why they chose their degrees as well. The true kick-in-the-balls for me, though, is that I was actually considering becoming a computer engineer but chose not to. I had the great opportunity to live with three engineers for the past year, and I am still living with them my senior year. So when they’re not going on about how big their e-gos are at playing Starcraft II — except for one who doesn’t have time to play video games anymore — they like to talk about practical matters such as the value of one’s degree. Especially when one of them comes back raging because some liberal arts major told him how worthless engineers are. The discussions often follow a set format that goes a little like this: Engineers make more money in general, therefore engineers are better than liberal arts majors, and therefore engineers will inherit the world when everyone else is busy bludgeoning each other to death. They never say anything like that, but they probably wonder about it from time to time. They also talk about income disparity between majors. This is something I really hadn’t thought about when
I first came to college. I was under the assumption that I would make at least $40,000 a year with my degree, with engineers making a whole lot more. In their discussion, usually they will point out that engineers will make around $50,000 a year for starting income while those with liberal arts majors are probably better off not going to college in the first place. At first it seems like a valid argument, especially when Iowa has the nation’s second-highest average graduating student debt, according to an AP article. Will that $30,000- to $40,000-a-year income be enough to offset that $30,000 in average debt while allowing a comfortable lifestyle in the beginning? Also, the issue of job security comes up. They like to mention that the unemployment rate tends to be different for engineers than liberal arts majors — it seems natural that it would be easier to find someone wanting to hire programmers, for example, than employers who want to hire psychology, philosophy or sociology majors. I looked up some
hard numbers online, and the gap doesn’t appear as big as they’re making it out to be. Those with liberal arts degrees can expect at least $35,000 a year in starting income, with mid-career salaries varying widely from about $40,000 to a little more than $70,000. This compares to engineering degrees that start as low as $40,000 starting pay and going from $80,000 to more than $100,000 in mid-career incomes. This has to take into account several things that can tip the scales. Liberal arts degrees have the tendency to be highly flexible. You could have a journalism degree or English degree, work for a large media group, become popular and end up earning a lot more than the rest of the pack, for example. Any college degree still earns its competitiveness in the marketplace because of the fact that you are educated. Or imagine the alternative forms of work: Would you really want to do a bluecollar job and have the risk physical injury? Point is, any college degree will put you head-and-shoulders above those with none. So if you had a minor midcollege degree crisis like I did, have no fear. The income gap isn’t as big as you think it would be, and you will still be able to lead a comfortable life. But the old adage “You reap what you sow” holds especially true for liberal arts majors. If you do well in your major, chances are you will have a comfortable income and get the most out of your education, so rest easy.

Basketball coach, mayor reflect on Ames diversity We have been asked to co-author thoughts for 11 Days of Global Unity. The request comes simply as a result of our sharing the label “mayor.” One of us acquired the title via the election process; the other by way of enthusiastic supporters at Hilton Coliseum. Nonetheless, we both proudly, and humbly, embrace the name and the responsibility that entails. We are keenly aware that the tone set, whether at the microphone in the City Council chambers or the most visible seat on the basketball floor, should make a statement to the entire community. And it is our hope that both of those very public roles can help set a standard worthy of the name mayor. ANN: I am convinced that the atmosphere in the council chambers needs to show respect for differing ideas and thoughts that find the public venue as a forum for the diverse opinions that make Ames a vibrant community. All public discourse needs to take place in an atmosphere of civility and absent personal attacks. We are all in the business of finding the common good. FRED: A respectful tone and discourse is equally important on the basketball court, or any athletic venue. Sport has evolved into a highly visible and influential part of our society — especially in a town like Ames. Kids follow with great interest what we do on the court. Often they emulate the actions of players on the court. Athletic excellence rooted in respect for the game and fellow competitors is as fundamental as a bounce pass. ANN: Racial diversity has taken on new meaning in the last few years in Ames. We have seen new residents relocating here for a variety of reasons. Many come from backgrounds far different from those traditional to Ames, Iowa. For some of us, our comfort zone has been challenged. It takes effort on all our parts — new residents and long-term residents alike — to make our changing Ames work. FRED: Diversity is one of the fantastic elements of sports. I have played with, and now have the privilege to coach, individuals from virtually every imaginable background. To win, it is absolutely essential that the entire team works as a fluid unit, both on and off the court. The first step is to understand and respect the varied backgrounds of every individual on the team. We establish lines of communication and dialogue, which build trust which in turn melds into the chemistry of a winning team. Increasingly we have come to appreciate the interconnectedness of us all. No mayor, police chief, school teacher, basketball coach or university president can operate in a vacuum. We all have our niches and need to share and collaborate with one another. Protecting turf doesn’t work. We are proud we have a community whose lifeblood is welcoming thousands of new students, visitors and sports fans each year. Ames can be a showcase. We all need to work to make it just that.
Ann Campbell is the mayor of the city of Ames, and Fred Hoiberg is the current men’s basketball coach at Iowa State.
Financial literacy needed for justice I grew up in Bangladesh, one of the poorest countries in the world. As a young child, I saw images of poverty that would take your breath away. Unlike the majority of the people in Bangladesh, my family was well off — at least initially. My father inherited a significant amount of money from my grandparents and, as a result, we were spared from financial hardship. But my father struggled when it came to managing money, and in what seems now like the blink of an eye, we lost the money and joined my fellow countrymen in desperate circumstances. It was a difficult time for my family, and many of my attitudes about economic justice were shaped by that time. My story can serve as a prologue to my belief that financial literacy — the personal understanding of how money and credit impacts our lives — is one of the driving forces on the path to economic justice. I took charge of my life and learned firsthand of the empowering nature of financial literacy. Coupled with a strong dose of self discipline and entrepreneurship, I started my own businesses in my native land. Before I knew it, I began to dream of higher education in the United States. Many people are confounded by poverty and blame poor people for their own predicament. There is a tendency to paint poor people with a pretty broad brush. To those of us who have studied the question, we fully understand that the roots of poverty are numerous and complex. Yes, individual responsibility is part of the equation. So is governmental policy. But at the root of it all is the systemic lack of financial

I personally benefited from understanding how money works, how credit can be used responsibly. Most of all, I now understand how empowering these insights can be. In our country, we’ve seen an unprecedented rise of predatory lenders: payday lenders, check-cashing outlets, fringe bankers, auto title joints and sub-prime lenders. There are more predatory lenders in our country than there are Starbucks, and their constituency is often the poor among us: The single mothers, low-income wage earners, immigrants and military families. I’ve personally worked with a woman who started out needing a $75 loan and ended up owing $11,000 to a series of predatory lenders. Where is the justice in that? We will not have true economic justice until we have empowered people through financial literacy, thus allowing them to dream the dream of all people — to eat well, to educate their children, to afford healthy shelter, to work or own a business, to participate actively in society. This is why as a credit union veteran I have taken an active stance against economic injustice. Credit unions have strengthened their efforts to promote wide-scale financial literacy initiatives. How can you envision true peace without economic justice? And how can you have economic justice without financial literacy? In point of fact, you can’t.

By David.Merrill iowastatedaily.com IOWA CITY — There is no relation between ISU running back Alexander Robinson and the Hawkeyes’ Adam Robinson. Their last names were the only things they had in common in the Cyclones’ 35-7 loss to Iowa on Saturday at Kinnick Stadium. Adam Robinson ran the ball 14 times for 158 yards and a touchdown, while Alexander Robinson was held to just 49 yards on 11 carries and 59 receiving yards on six receptions. The Hawkeyes’ Jewel Hampton contributed another 20 carries for 87 yards, along with one touchdown, to the team’s
offensive drives. “The O-line did a great job, and Jewel came off the bench and provided a spark for us and made great reads,” Adam Robinson said. “I think the whole team really just played as one.” Cyclone linebacker A.J. Klein said the Hawkeyes’ depth at running back made it even harder on Iowa State’s defense. “Both of them are great runners, and it kept them fresh,” Klein said. “It made it tough for us to get a foot hold. They had
long drives, and we knew we had to stop it, and we didn’t.” Despite the loss, The Cyclones did manage to score their first touchdown against the Hawkeyes since the 2006 matchup in Iowa City, in which the Cyclones lost 21-17. The touchdown Saturday came on a short pass from quarterback Austen Arnaud to wide receiver Darius Darks in the waning minutes to spoil the Iowa

Coaches reflect on game Rhoads, Arnaud discuss loss, how to improve for the rest of the season By Chris.Cuellar iowastatedaily.com There was no doubt who the better team was Saturday, but with 10 games left for Iowa State and the Iowa Hawkeyes, there is plenty of work left. Media from all over Iowa were busy bees in the bowels of Kinnick Stadium on Saturday night, and there were plenty of soundbites and opinions from players and coaches. State of the programs This year’s early success is polarizing, but the No. 9 Hawkeyes (2-0) and Cyclones (1-1) have to deal with the same recruiting grounds and regional fan bases. Larger, more expensive facilities go along with more recent success for the University of Iowa, but one game can’t change how this rivalry is viewed by coaching staffs or the athletes that compete for the Cy-Hawk Series. “I don’t know if we’re in the sympathy business. They aren’t
either,” said Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz on Saturday. “They don’t want any. They don’t really need any. They’re going to be fine. They’ve got a good football team and a good staff.” With the Cyclones 24-39 since 2005 in football, and the Hawkeyes going 41-24 over the same stretch, ISU coach Paul Rhoads is doing everything in his power to close the gap. “We got whipped,” Rhoads said simply after the game. In his staff’s second season leading the cardinal and gold, Rhoads has been outscored by Ferentz’s team 70-10 since joining the rivalry. “I think under two is still infantile when talking about the development of a program. We’ve only been here 20-some months. They’ve been here 12 years. They’ve got a dang good program,” Rhoads said. Ferentz has turned down offers for other colleges and professional football coaching jobs on multiple occasions, and he just signed a contract extension that will keep him with the

IOWA CITY — For the first time in 17-plus quarters, the ISU offense found the end zone against Iowa. Other than that, Austen Arnaud and Co. didn’t see much success Saturday. “We couldn’t find a rhythm,” Arnaud said after the Cyclones’ 35-7 loss. “We just have to find a rhythm, as an offense, if we’re going to move the ball on good, good defenses.” The first quarter would set the stage for the Cyclones’ offense. The unit gained just three yards on its only series, a three-and-out. The Iowa offense held on to the ball for the other 13 minutes and 34 seconds of the quarter. “When the score is [7-0] at the end of the first quarter, there was guys on that sideline looking around, looking for hope, looking for help,” Arnaud said. Iowa dominated a first half that ended with Iowa State getting out-gained 288-85. Iowa’s offense had 13 first downs; the Cyclones managed only five. In the second half, the Cyclones improved and were able to put together more consistent drives. The ISU offense ended with 275 yards and an eightyard touchdown from Arnaud to Darius Darks to end the scoreless streak. “Against a defense like that with an offense like ours, you’ve got to find a rhythm,” ISU coach Paul Rhoads said. “You do that by having success on first down, and we weren’t having any success on first down.” Iowa State had 95 yards on 25 plays on first down against an experienced Hawkeyes’ defense. Fifty of those yards came on the Cyclones’ final four first downs on their only scoring drive. “I’ve played against some good defenses, but that’s one of the better ones,” Arnaud said. “It rivals the unit they had last year ... It’s tough going against those guys. They’re very good at what they do.” ISU fans will remember

Aaholm shoots 218, finishes in ninth
Sixth-straight win over Iowa features Henson, Straube
By Dean.Burhow-Goll iowastatedaily.com

Iowa State men take 11th place The ISU men’s golf team finished the Wolf Run Invitational 11th out of the 15 teams this weekend. Iowa State totaled an 897 for the weekend, playing 36 holes Saturday and 18 Sunday. Leading the team for Iowa State was Jacob Aaholm, who tied for ninth overall. Aaholm finished the weekend with a 218, with rounds of 73, 73 and 71. Receiving medalist honors for winning the event was Central Florida’s Connor Arendell, who shot a 208 to take the victory. Also finishing well were Tom Lathrop and Nathan Leary, firing a score total of 228, which left them tied for 47th.
Arnaud’s performance against the Hawkeyes in 2009: 10of-22 passing for a total Rhoads of 79 yards and four interceptions. Arnaud took the blame, following the 35-3 loss. Saturday saw a statistiArnaud cal improvement — 20of-44 for 197 yards and the touchdown — but the senior acknowledged that Ferentz there’s still room for him to improve. “I could have played better, definitely,” he said. Even with the offense’s — and Arnaud’s — struggles, Rhoads never made a move to bring in sophomore backup Jerome Tiller, saying simply “No,” when asked if he thought about the move late in the game. “Austen Arnaud is our quarterback,” Rhoads said. “He did not have his best game, and he was not playing well in the second half. He needed to go out and play well; he needed to go out and move us down the field.” Arnaud’s three interceptions brought his two-year total against the school’s top rival to seven. He had nine picks last season, aside from the early-season loss. “Our guys, they played the defense,” said Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz, who is now 6-6 against the Cyclones. “The guys in the back end did a nice job. When everybody is doing their job, good things are going to happen.” At times, the Iowa defense seemed to stop the Cyclones at will, particularly on third and down. The Cyclones struggled to convert just six of their 17 third down attempts and were 0-2 on fourth downs. “Obviously I think it’s going to get a lot tougher for next week, than that.” Iowa cornerback Shaun Prater said.
Leary started the weekend off strong, carding a 69-74 which earned him a tie for second. Then, after the last 18 on Sunday, Leary limped into the clubhouse with an 85, dropping him into the tie for 47th. “All five of our guys showed some good signs, but struggled to put it together for 54 holes,” coach Andrew Tank said in an e-mail. “Jacob played solid on a difficult golf course.” Tank went on to say that the Wolf Run golf course is a challenging one and seemed to expose some of the weaknesses of the players. He also mentioned that the team still needs to keep working on how it approaches every shot. Next on the schedule for the Cyclones is the VCU Shootout, which is on Sept. 27-28.
IOWA CITY — The annual in-state rivalry began with a kill from ISU sophomore middle blocker Jamie Straube, and it ended just an hour and 15 minutes later as the Cyclones made quick work of the Hawkeyes at Carver-Hawkeye Arena (25-15, 25-12, 25-14). It was the sixth straight win for the Cyclones over the Hawkeyes as the all-time CyHawk series in volleyball is now 22-21 in favor of Iowa State. With the win, Iowa State (7-1) not only picks up its seventh consecutive victory on the season but also earns the first victory for Iowa State in the seventh annual HyVee Cy-Hawk series. “We were definitely ready
to play,” said coach Christy Johnson-Lynch. “Our team was very fired up and we wanted to kick off the Cy-Hawk series in a good way, so they were pretty pumped to play tonight.” After the match started at 1010 in the first set, ISU senior outside hitter Victoria Henson took over with seven kills on a .538 clip and no errors. The Cyclones rode that momentum to a 25-15 victory in the first set and a 4-0 lead into the second set. That would be the closest the Hawkeyes would get in the second set as Straube and Henson swung for four kills apiece in the Cyclones 25-12 win in the second. Both teams came out a bit slow in the third with five errors in the first 11 points, but with the score at

against the Hawkeyes, the Cyclone defensive line and linebackers were feeling every bump and bruise of getting bullied. “They wore us down, I’m not going to say they didn’t. They really pounded it to us,â€? said sophomore linebacker A.J. Klein. “We can’t come out soft. We came out soft in the ďŹ rst half.â€? Klein was tired postgame, after his team-high 11 tackles, but not as hurt as some of his other unit mates. Linebacker Matt Tau’fo’ou broke his ďŹ bula during the contest, an injury Rhoads believed to be similar to the one cornerback Ter’ran Benton suffered last season. Benton was able to return in around four weeks. Stephen Ruempolhamer also went out holding his arm during the game, but came back a few series later to ďŹ nish the game. Postgame,

Rhoads said. Iowa took control of the game right from the start, dominating the time of possession in the ďŹ rst quarter. The team only allowed Iowa State to have the ball for 86 seconds in the quarter. Coming into the game, Adam Robinson wanted to send a message that the Hawkeyes can be a national contender this season. “We wanted to make a statement, as a team, that we’re for real and that we can compete with anybody,â€? Robinson said. “I think we did a good job today.â€? Robinson recorded the longest run of his career in the second quarter, when he burst up the middle and broke three tackles for a 75-yard run that brought him down at the 1-yard line, allowing Iowa quarterback Ricky Stanzi to sneak it in. Adam Robinson thought he had made it in the end zone on the run, but the play was reviewed and the call stood. “[Junior wide receiver Marvin McNutt] was one of the reasons I made it that far,â€? Adam Robinson said. “I just kept seeing him out of the corner of my eye, like a black-andyellow jersey going down the ďŹ eld, blocking somebody. If it wasn’t for him, I don’t think I would have made it that far on that play.â€? Tackling was a problem for the Cyclones,
Ruempolhamer had a heavy ice pack to along with his seven tackles. “We’ll compete for the [strongside] linebacker position. We’ll probably have to play a good bit more nickel,â€? Rhoads said of the defense without Tau’fo’ou. Time of possession The Cyclones spread offense didn’t get much time on the ďŹ eld in the ďŹ rst half, logging most of its minutes when the game was already decided in the second half. The extended bench time in the cramped quarters of Kinnick Stadium aren’t a welcome place, but only one unit spent much time there. At the end of the ďŹ rst quarter, the Cyclones had run three plays for 3 yards, and held the ball for a grand total of 1:26. The Hawkeyes wouldn’t let
and the theme, defensively, was the unit’s mentality, and not necessarily being prepared for what they were facing. That lack of toughness led to big gains for Iowa. “We just got pounded off the line, and we weren’t expecting it,â€? Klein said. “It was hard to recover from it, but we came out in the second half and played harder, but it was too late.â€? Arnaud had his own troubles, throwing three interceptions, two inside the red zone. He ďŹ nished the game with 197 yards passing and one touchdown. He completed 20 of his 44 passes. Even with Arnaud struggling, Rhoads stuck with his senior quarterback. “It means everything,â€? Arnaud said. “I know he has conďŹ dence in me, and I know this team has conďŹ dence in me. There was a lot of things that went wrong today, not just my plays. We, collectively, didn’t play well, and we played a very good team.â€? Although his team struggled in the game, the coach brought up a more positives after the loss, aside from just the touchdown. “I thought Shontrelle Johnson showed up as a true freshman and played well,â€? Rhoads said. “I thought Kirby Van Der Kamp came out in a tough environment as a freshman and punted the ball well.â€? Johnson, a hyped recruit from DeLand, Fla., returned two kickoffs for 99 yards, the second of which was a 62-yard return that set the Cyclones up with an opportunity to put the ball in the end zone. Van Der Kamp had seven punts and averaged 40.4 yards per kick.

Iowa State ended the game with 24:22 of ball possession, more than 10 minutes less than the Hawkeyes held the pigskin. The Cyclones’ spread offense is predicated on ball control, and staff stressed it heading into the rivalry week, but the team couldn’t execute. “It’s a tough thing to do, not getting off the ďŹ eld.

The 11th-ranked Cyclones continued their offensive success by hitting .326 as a team, the identical hitting percentage that the team had compiled over their previous ďŹ ve matches. Leading Iowa State in kills for the seventh time this season was Henson, who ďŹ nished with 12 kills and no errors on a .545 clip. Through non-conference play, Henson leads the Big 12 with 4.19 kills per set. “She’s kind of got the magic touch right now. It seems like everything she touches it turns into a kill,â€? Johnson-Lynch said of Henson. “It doesn’t matter if the set is good or bad, eight feet off or uptight; she is just doing such a great job of getting her feet to the ball, making great attack decisions and terminating. I think she’s one of the best in the country at that right now.â€? Also standing out on offense for the Cyclones were Straube and right-side hitter Kelsey Petersen, who both hit .500 clips and ended with nine and six kills. Sophomore setter Alison Landwehr compiled 29 assists in the three-set match, and junior Carly Jenson led all Cyclones with 10 digs. As a team, Iowa State is hitting .303 on the year and holding opponents to a mere .129; both

to execute and get ourselves off the ďŹ eld,â€? Klein said. Shaun Prater The junior Hawkeye defensive back started his ďŹ rst game this season after a preseason injury kept him out of Iowa’s week-one game against Eastern Illinois. The 5-foot11 Omaha native recorded an interception in the third quarter, the third of his career. Prater was more than pleased with his team’s performance after the game. “Two years in a row, what was the score last year, 35-3? So yeah, it feels pretty good,â€? Prater said. “Obviously I think it’s going to get a lot tougher for next week, than that.â€? The Hawkeyes have forced seven interceptions from Arnaud in the last two Cy-Hawk games.
percentages are second-best in the Big 12. The Hawkeyes were led by Mallory Husz with eight kills but couldn’t muster up much else offensively as they hit for a season-low -.049. The Cyclones also overpowered the Hawkeyes at the net with 11 total team blocks to only one for the Hawkeye hitters. With only one solo block amongst those 11 blocks, Johnson-Lynch has seen improvement with her team blocking as a unit. “We’ve improved our blocking numbers by a ton, which was a number that was concerning me at the beginning of the season, and now I feel a lot better about it,â€? Johnson-Lynch said. Straube leads the Cyclones with 34 blocks on the season. Straube, an All-Big 12 Freshman Team honoree last season, is also sixth in the conference in blocks as the team begins the conference schedule. “[Friday’s match was] our ďŹ rst big road game since Omaha, so it was really good just to come in here play well, end the preseason well and get a good start going into the Big 12,â€? Straube said. Adjusting to a new home venue, a season-ending injury to Rachel Hockaday and a new setter in Landwehr, Johnson-Lynch believes her team has overcome its early-season adversity and is prepared for Big 12 play. “Throughout the preseason we just wanted to make sure we were comfortable and ready to go for the Big 12, and I think that’s where we are at,â€? Johnson-Lynch said. Following the weekend off, the Cyclones will begin to prepare for the Big 12 Conference schedule. The Big 12 season will begin Wednesday when the No. 7 Nebraska Cornhuskers will come into Ames High for a showdown of two top 15 programs. First serve is scheduled for 7 p.m. and the match will be televised on ESPNU.

Q&A
Engineering graduate gives career advice
Profile
By Micaela.Cashman iowastatedaily.com Joseph Chody was raised in Kalona, a small town heavily populated by Amish residents. Now he works at Northrop Grumman, a prestigious engineering firm, in Los Angeles, Calif. What year did you graduate? What did you get your degree in? 1979 in aerospace engineering. Did you originally start in that program when you came to Iowa State or did you have other career aspirations? My high school counselor said all of my aptitude testing indicated that I should be an engineer. I had no idea what an engineer was, I wanted to be an auto mechanic. The counselor said engineers made good money, so that swung the deal for me. I was undeclared the first year and chose aerospace when I was a sophomore. I’m not sure why I chose aerospace other than I liked building and flying model airplanes and rockets when I was a kid. What activities or organizations were you involved in? Beer drinking, mainly, and the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics. I’m sure I was involved in other activities, but I can’t remember what they were — probably because of the beer drinking. What is your favorite thing about Iowa State? Going to football games. Go Cyclones! Describe your career path. I started at what was then McDonnell Douglas Aircraft in St. Louis, Mo., working on the advanced AV-8B Harrier Program. I was there for two years and then moved to southern California to work for Northrop [Grumman] on the B-2 program. In 1988, I left to work for a very small company doing research on high agility aircraft. In 1989, I went to work for Rockwell [Collins] on the X-31 Demonstration Program. Then, in 1991, it was back to Northrop and for a second stint on the B-2 Program. Now I’m working on a program that will demonstrate the first-ever landing of an unmanned aircraft, flying wing configuration, on an aircraft carrier. What is your title now? Director, N-UCAS [Navy Unmanned Combat Air Systems] System Engineering, Integration and Test. What has been your proudest accomplishment in your career? First Flight of the X-31 Aircraft on Oct. 11, 1990 — my 33rd birthday. I was leading the X-31 Flight Controls organization at the time. What is your best memory of college? Getting my first job offer and then graduating. I have many fond memories. What do you wish you would have known while in college that you know now? Our time on this rock is very finite, very short, we need to understand that and live accordingly — every day. What advice do you have for college students, particularly those in engineering? Study hard and get your degree — you’ll be in great demand if you have good engineering skills. An ISU engineering degree is very well respected. Do first things first, but, equally important, make time to party with your friends and enjoy your time in school. Finally, maintain a healthy, well-balanced lifestyle — exercise regularly and eat well. And quit playing video games and texting 24/7.

Matthew Goodman got his start in the food business in 1991 by working at the Smiles & Gyros stand and bought it in 1993, changing his life and his way of doing business. “Some people just love what we’re doing,” Goodman said. “They just love it. It feels right for them, it fits them, it helps them grow into people they want to be.” Photo: David Livingston/Iowa State Daily
‘He’s changing people’s lives’ Local entrepreneur reflects on business ventures, professional philosophy By Stefanie.Buhrman iowastatedaily.com Charismatic, philosophic, energetic and passionate are words that have been used to describe Matthew Goodman, owner of businesses such as the Smiles & Gyros and Fighting Burrito, and it all started in 1991 when he came to Iowa State to pursue a degree in chemistry. After much consideration, Goodman almost did not attend college. He was considering managing a Hardee’s, a place he had worked at during high school to save up money. After a little more than a month of college, Goodman had almost gone through his entire savings. He needed a job. He saw a friend from his hometown of Ottumwa working at the gyro stand and asked if they were looking for extra help. Two nights later, Goodman met with the owner of the cart and got the job. He learned the job quickly and immediately loved it. “That job was really a big deal,” Goodman said. “I loved it. It was outside. It was fast paced. It was a party, also. You’re in Campustown, but you’re not in a bar. You aren’t serving drinks. You’re in it all without dealing with the messiest parts of it.” When Goodman came to college, he described himself as cocky and arrogant. At the cart, he found himself judging those he served. “I had a hard time integrating respect for them,” Goodman said. Goodman then stopped drinking. He judged those who did. He wanted to differentiate himself from those around him. All during the grunge age of Pearl Jam and Nirvana, he had long hair and wore flannel and long underwear. This went on for a while. Then one night Goodman experienced what he considers the most pivotal and monumental moment of his life. “I was trying to make people understand that even guys with dreadlocks work hard and they can impress you,” Goodman said. While Goodman was working, he saw a group of people hanging around on Welch Avenue. Goodman was just a “dude in rags” trying to make his own way, and he saw the group of nicely dressed people as spoiled. He made eye contact with a man in the group and was overwhelmed. “Then, all of a sudden, instead of judging them harshly and thinking I was better than them, I just realized he was some kid doing the best he can. He is just out having fun just the way I am with the tools he was given,” Goodman said. From that point on, everything changed for Goodman. “I must have been looking for a way to include everyone in my world, in my head,” Goodman said. The way Goodman thought about things was different from that point on. “Instead of thinking I was better than all these people on the street, I just wanted to make sure I spent all my time earning their respect so when it came time I could show them the power they had in their own hands,” Goodman said. In 1993 after working with the stand for two years, Goodman bought it. While working, he developed his philosophies more.
“The way I feel about my work is weird,” he said. “There aren’t a lot of people who think this way, but to me, the work we are doing out there is expressing ourselves passionately through our work to have an impact on our community, and that’s what I was doing.” Goodman talked about how work develops a person and how along with school and everything else, it helps make you. After graduating with a degree in chemistry, Goodman had felt that he had changed over his academic lifetime. “If you are about to graduate, you are not the same person you were four years ago. There’s no way,” he said. Goodman’s change in thinking and growth gave him a chance to impact others. “We have a unique opportunity to be out there and try to earn respect through our work and capitalize on the respect to remind them of the incredible people they can be if they choose

to,” Goodman said. Overall, Goodman described his experience as emotional, philosophical and spiritual. “A business person who truly cares about their community needs to take risks to strengthen their community and not just sit on an operation that takes care of you,” Goodman said. “I think that’s important, and I think what we should all be doing in all kinds of different ways is making a difference in our communities.” Goodman first met Joshua Herbolsheimer when Herbolsheimer was a student at Iowa State in early 2002. He was interviewing for a job with Goodman at the stand in response to an ad in a newspaper that said, “Hard help wanted, must bust ass.” Herbolsheimer was introduced to Goodman’s philosophies immediately. “I remember when I was at his house for that interview,” Herbolsheimer said. “He had a sticker above the kitchen that said, ‘Be not half assed.’” Herbolsheimer was initially very shy and barely said a word at the interview, but Goodman thought Herbolsheimer could use the stand to become more outgoing and wanted to give him that chance. From that point on, Goodman and Herbolsheimer were not only co-workers, but over time they became friends. “He is a person who is living his values,” Herbolsheimer said. “He was this sort of employer who was always a friend, always had time for you, always respected you. He had a really strong impact on me. He is honest. He has integrity, and
you can count on that. We’ve been friends a long time, and we don’t always agree on things, but he is true to the person he is.” One night while Herbolsheimer and Goodman were working together, a man tried to cut to the front of the line at the stand and offered to pay extra for a sandwich. Goodman wouldn’t allow it and asked him to return to the back of the line. The man kept upping the amount he would pay for the next sandwich off the grill, and Goodman persisted that he get back to the end of the line. This was not a one-time occurrence, but Goodman was consistent with his response. “The cool thing about him, he believes in [his philosophies],” Herbolsheimer said. “He strongly lives in them, and he’s fun to be around.” One tradition that Goodman has established with his employees is going out to the Ledges State Park after Veishea weekend. After working two 15-hour days of pure mayhem, the staff has a chance to relax. “We are quiet together,” Goodman said. “I think a lot of time what people, what the world, needs is people who are less afraid of cynicism, less afraid to be authentic. “I think it’s always easier to act joke-y and act like nothing is important. We take it in, and we just sense the world around us for a little bit and without any of the normal distractions, and I think it just feels good to be involved in a place where you are not scared to believe in things, and that’s sort of the physical representation of that.” Coming together each year like this gives the employees a chance to get to know each other. “The first time we went out there, it was the first time I heard him talk about what he was actually about,” said Chad Watkins, another coworker of Goodman’s. “He let his emotions out and explained who he is. It was the first time I really got it.” Watkins first met Goodman in February 2006 at the gyro stand for his interview. “It was probably the easiest interview I’ve ever done,” Watkins said. “He seemed so comfortable and real easygoing. He was real sociable.” Watkins said he loved Goodman’s charisma and energy. He said Goodman’s energy was always “at the top, he’s confident, and he does his job so well.” “I liked how tough he was, but it was fair,” Watkins said. “He had a set of rules; if you didn’t follow them, then you didn’t work there. With his philosophies, not everyone can make it at his work, but he doesn’t hold it against you if you aren’t cut out for it. “He is still friends with people that no longer work there.” Watkins felt that if Goodman stepped into a new venture, he would make it work because of his confidence and his work ethics. “Food is such a small portion of what he does,” Watkins said. “But he’s changing people’s lives. He’s a great guy on top of being a great boss.” Goodman’s philosophies and business practices have affected people in and out of the workplace. “There are so many great stories, so many random things and trips,” Herbolsheimer said. “Working with him and knowing him has been defining and monumental for me, and I think I’m a better person for knowing him.”
