With only eight scholarship wide receivers, the depth at the position has been a con-cern of offensive coordinator Mike Bobo’s this preseason.

Nonetheless, Bobo contin-ues to be impressed with the quality of that depth, even if it may not be as deep as he’d prefer.

“The whole time I’ve been concerned about the quantity of numbers, but I feel good about the quality of guys. Those guys really did a great job of working hard and are in shape,” Bobo said. “They’re

really busting their tails, work-ing hard, they’re hardly hitting any loafs, and because they’re in shape, they’re getting bet-ter every day, and I really see a big improvement in their play. I feel real good about them.”

One move to improve the wide receiver depth was allow-ing Logan Gray to play the position, a move that has proved productive thus far, although Gray sprained his ankle in Tuesday’s practice and was forced to sit out Wednesday with a boot on his foot.

“Logan already had a knowledge of the passing game, but just his improve-

ment daily at the wide receiv-er position has been very impressive to us as a staff,” Bobo said. “He probably had the best day he’s had since he’s been here yesterday until

he had that ankle sprain.”Another wide receiver

INTOXICATED CREEK

SOBERS UP

New hires experience relief, guilt over posts

By JULIA CARPENTERTHE RED & BLACK

In the aftermath of the spring’s pro-posed budget cuts, 16 new professors have joined the University community as part of the Faculty Hiring Initiative , and several more have been hired in dif-ferent departments to fill vacant spots left by retirees or those cut in the bud-get crisis’s wake.

Jere Morehead, senior vice president for academic affairs and provost, said deans of University schools and colleges attempt to only hire “critical” faculty, or those that could significantly alleviate strain on teaching and research pro-grams.

“[The Franklin College of] Arts and Sciences had the most significant num-ber, but of course they’re our largest college, so you might expect that,” Morehead said. “We had some clear needs that served research and teaching needs. Each one stood on its own merit.”

Valija Rose, a new professor of lifelong edu-cation administration and policy in the College of Education, said the happiness and blessings of a new job also come with an unexpected feeling akin to sur-vivor’s guilt.

“For me, there’s some guilt or some-thing, some feeling that says ‘I know I need to be grateful because there’s other people much less fortunate than I am,’” Rose said.

Rose may be grateful for her new position and excited about teaching at the University, but she also expressed qualms about the safety of her tenure-track position.

Fraternity, community in conflict about house

By RACHEL BUNNTHE RED & BLACK

The Chi Phi fraternity will not have a new home anytime soon.

At Wednesday’s Athens Historic Preservation Committee meeting, the fraternity’s proposed additions to the historic Arnocroft House property on South Milledge Avenue were tabled for next month.

The fraternity sold its house on South Lumpkin Street to the University for $1.75 million and purchased the Arnocroft House.

Though the original intent when the house was purchased was to demolish the Arnocraft House, the fraternity, working with architects, the South Milledge Historic District and other local historic districts, developed a dif-ferent plan, which was presented at the meeting.

The fraternity proposed to keep the existing Arnocroft House, but use its grounds to build a separate U-shaped house in the style of the South Lumpkin Street building.

“We were looking for something that does have an authentic look,” said John Williams, representative for the fraternity at the meeting.

Williams said that, as one of the first

Students taking classes this sum-mer may have noticed an unnat-urally blue creek flowing through

Athens — weeks later, the creek is returning to its normal hues, but the environmental effects may be longer lasting.

In late July, chemicals spilled into Trail Creek, which flows into the

North Oconee and Oconee rivers, following a fire at the J&J Chemical warehouses north of town.

The fire sent formaldehyde, para-dicholorobenzene and blue dye used in toilet bowl cleaners into Trail Creek.

Some of the dye is still visible, but an EPD news release stated five out of six water samples pulled from the North Oconee and Oconee rivers did not contain any of the para-dichol-

orobenzene contaminant. Concern that the contaminants would reach a drinking water supply have since evaporated.

“Everything has been contained, and contamination is no longer an issue,” said Kevin Chambers, commu-nications director of the Georgia Environmental Protection Division.

Previous puzzle’s solution

Student caught underage and upside down

University student Thomas Houston Self, 19, was arrested and charged with underage possession of alcohol and obstruction at 247 Pulaski Street on Aug. 18 at 2:38 a.m.

According to the Athens-Clarke County Police report, Self caught the attention of an officer when he was seen kicking a vehicle in a parking lot at a fraternity house.

“It was a friend’s car. I was not trying to damage any property,” Self told The Red & Black.

According to the report,

as the officer approached, Self attempted to hide behind the vehicle.

He then ran toward the fraternity house and attempted to open a door.

As the officer continued to approach, Self reported-ly continued running along the side of the building. As he ran, he “somehow man-aged to get his right foot stuck in the top of a six foot wrought iron fence, which left him dangling there,” the report states.

“I ran because I was with a friend,” Self said. “And I was kind of trying to distract the police and didn’t want her to get in trouble too.”

Because of scratches to Self’s ankle, EMS was called. As he waited for them to arrive, the arrest-ing officer reported Self began attempting to bar-gain.

According to the report, Self asked if the officer wanted him to sing in exchange for being let go.

According to Self, how-ever, he said no such thing.

“I was honestly doing what any sensible kid would do and explain myself,” Self said. “But that last part is preposter-ous.”

EMS arrived and dressed Self’s wound before he was transported to Athens-Clarke County Jail.

“I hurt my ankle and the EMT people didn’t allow me to go to the hos-pital,” Self said. “It’s much more than a scratch.”

Classroom creeper

The early bird might get the worm, but when it comes to meeting girls at the beginning of the school year, it’s sometimes better to pace yourself.

University Police are now searching for a male who was reported as a sus-picious person in the Miller Plant Science Building on Tuesday, according to University Police Lt. Eric Dellinger.

The unknown individual entered a class and began “soliciting personal infor-mation from female stu-dents,” Dellinger said. “He was very direct and really made students feel very uncomfortable.”

As police try to track down this individual, Dellinger said he’s not sure if any charges will be brought against him.

“At this point it appears nothing he did is per se a violation of the law,” Dellinger said.

With the snip of a ribbon, the University community dedicated one more building on campus stu-dents can call home.

Located on East Campus and built to accommodate student requests for more on-campus hous-ing, Building 1516 is now home to 555 transfer, international and upper-level students.

“The new residence hall is a direct result of student feedback and focus groups,” said Gerard Kowalski, executive director of housing.

But the dorm had to speak to the students’ desires, Kowalski said. Surveys administered in the spring of 2008 showed student interest in personal temperature controls, pri-vate bathrooms, more computer labs and study rooms.

Some of the dorm’s features also make strides in University sustain-ability.

“In just a few months it will become the first LEED residence hall on the University’s campus,” Kowalski said.

Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design certification has become the foremost sustain-able building standard, and in the past year the University has intro-duced the standard to new con-struction projects, such as Tate II.

The new dorm includes numer-

ous features that save energy, water and money for the University.

In the water category, the build-ing harvests rainwater and recycles gray water, which is then used to flush the toilets. The gray water recycling system, which takes used water and recycles it in a safe man-ner, is the first of its kind at the University.

The building also saves money through conservative heating and cooling systems and energy efficient lighting.

“We want to be good stewards of the present and builders of the future,” Kowalski said.

The staff in Building 1516 also educate residents to become more sustainable in their personal lives.

“The building inherently teaches the people who live there,” said Kevin Kirsche, director of sustain-ability. “They are absorbing this concept and value system of being environmentally responsible. It gets down to the personal connection that what we do matters.”

New dorm addresses student wantsFrom Page 1

“I recognize that the University had furloughs last year, so I recognize that this is kind of a tenuous posi-tion,” she said. “I was told in my hire that they foresee maintaining this position, but this is a public university, and we are in a budget crisis, so there’s no guarantees.”

Esra Santesso, a new English professor said she was reassured about the security of her tenure-track post.

“The rules and guidelines were made very clear to me about the tenure, and that assured me that we were safe,” she said. “As long as there isn’t a major catastro-phe, I expect this same procedure to be followed.”

Vera Lee-Schoenfeld is one of several new faculty members ascending from a temporary hire or visiting assistant professorship at another institution to a ten-ure-track position at the University.

“There was no possibility of my position being con-verted into a tenure-track position, so I had to be on the job market every year,” Lee-Schoenfeld said.

Two years ago, every job posted in Anya Lunden’s lin-guistics specialty was retracted as several universities froze hiring.

Lunden continued working as a temporary hire, but she was always living with the threat of termination.

“Even before the economic downturn, the number of jobs in linguistics contracted. So it’s clear we’re just coming out of that,” Lunden said. “I feel very fortunate, and I’m glad that universities are able to find some room in their budget for more hires. I’m obviously grateful that they were able to do it, but I think there’s a great benefit to the students as well.”

Riverkeeper organiza-tion’s Oconee River Project director, said contaminants are still lingering near the site of the spill in a wetland area four to five miles north of Dudley Park.

“In many ways, this has been an unusual event, particularly because of that wetland area and the ter-rain,” he said.

Emanuel also said weather has been an issue with cleanup as heavy rains flushed many contami-nants downstream.

The rain further compli-cated things when the EPD chose to shut off its carbon filtration system earlier this week to run tests on the machine, which was having trouble processing the extra rainwater, Emanuel said.

Both the Riverkeeper organization and the Upper Oconee Watershed Network — organizations dedicated to observing and maintain-ing rivers’ cleanliness — participated in the clean-up.

Emanuel stressed the necessity of citizens keep-ing away from the worst of the spill.

“Certainly, nobody at the citizen level is doing much of the hands-on cleanup,” he said. “The main thing is to stay out of

the water. It’s still not very safe to have contact with the water in Trail Creek.”

The nearest drinking water reservoir is in Greensboro. Testing of those waters produced a “non-detect,” indicating they could not find any traces of the harmful chem-icals in the water.

“It’s a long way to go for any chemical,” Chambers said.

Chambers discouraged civilian efforts to affect the process, which is in profes-sional hands.

In accordance with a consent order issued by the EPD, the responsible com-pany, J&J Chemical Co., is now devoting its resources toward the containment of the spill and the monitor-ing of the surrounding area, which is standard operat-ing procedure in an EPD case.

The EPD is overseeing the clean up and ensuring the responsible party adheres to a consent order which outlines J&J’s obli-gation to demolish the damaged building and treat and test the contami-nated water.

“Demolition and remov-al of the building is just about completed,” said Chambers, who explained that the building was no longer safe after the fire. “Also, parts of the concrete

foundation have been removed for sampling.”

Chambers said the con-taminated water is placed into tanks which will be transported from the site for proper treatment and disposal.

Student involvement in the spill cleanup has been limited. This is because of the dangerous nature of the cleaning work — han-dling dangerous chemicals is no task for the untrained twenty something.

Georgia Cobb, co-presi-dent of the University’s Ecology Club, said her group hadn’t done any-thing involving the Oconee River. Still, she said that she recognizes the severity of the water pollution situ-ation.

“It was horrible and tragic,” she said. “Yet another wound mankind has inflicted on planet Earth.”

Make your final changes to your class

schedule — today is the last day to drop a course on OASIS.

Drop-add week is the time when stu-dents are free to modify their schedules as they wish, dropping undesired classes and picking up new ones without blemishing their records.

Dropping a class this week doesn’t count as a withdrawal. Only four with-drawals — dropping out of a class after drop-add week — are allowed during a student’s entire undergraduate career.

Friday is the final day to add courses on OASIS, and getting into a class after this week could be difficult.

Associate Registrar Rodney Parks said OASIS receives especially heavy traffic on the Sunday before classes begin, though it is hectic during all of drop-add week.

“Drop-add is a very busy time,” Parks said. “You see a lot of movement over the course of the first four days.”

He said 6,607 undergraduate and grad-uate students added courses to their schedules Tuesday alone. Five hundred users logged onto OASIS between 10 a.m. and 6 p.m. that same day.

Lauren Bozeman, a sophomore from Flowery Branch, said she changes her classes frequently during drop-add week.

“I switch my schedule a lot, especially after that first Monday and Tuesday,” Bozeman said. “So far this week, I’ve done it three times.”

Phillip Ferrara, a sophomore from Acworth, said he uses a drop from a course for two specific situations.

“I tend to reserve those for classes I don’t need or I’ll fail pretty bad,” Ferrara said.

The only time he has ever gotten rid of a class during drop-add week was last spring when he dropped psychology “to lighten the load.”

“This semester, I’ve only added a class,” he said.

Ferrara also said if he predicts a teach-er to be “rough,” he’ll drop the class.

He said last semester, he almost dropped a political science course during drop-add week because he didn’t like the professor teaching it.

Ferrara explained his procedure for mending his schedule during drop-add week.

“I set a preliminary schedule, and then I wait for people to drop their class so I can take it,” he said.

Final chance to drop courses leaves OASIS, registrar busy

Chi Phi fraternities in the nation, the organization was looking to bring some of the style of their original house on South Lumpkin Street to their new Milledge Avenue address.

Neighbors are worried about the effect the Chi Phi expansion and destruction of its grounds will have on their residences and neighbor-hoods.

The Arnocroft grounds contain gardens designed by Hubert Owens, founder of the University’s landscape architecture program.

Susan Field, a neighborhood resi-dent, said the site was added to the National History Register in 1985. She said she feared parcelling the property would remove it from the

history register.Sylvia Hutchinson, another neigh-

bor and University professor emeri-tus, said altering the property by adding another building would change the property’s value.

“If the space is changed as pro-posed, the character cannot be con-tained,” she said.

Hutchinson asked the committee not just to consider the house, but also to consider the grounds the house is built on.

“We all take pains to have yards and homes in accordance with this [historic] character,” said Bloomfield Historic District resident and University professor Molly Moran.

The Historic Preservation Committee had some additional questions and issues with the Chi

Phi proposal.“There are plenty of examples of

fraternities and sororities that have maintained existing buildings and landscapes,” said Helen Kuykendall, a member of the committee.

The committee voted 4-1 to table the fraternity’s proposal until Chi Phi’s architects could address some of the issues the committee raised with the building proposal as it stands now.

“The entire property has an incredible value based on the way it looks,” said Patricia Ruppersburg, another member of the committee. “There are two trains of thought — does this fraternity house fly? Yes. Does it fly in this lot? If this is built, the whole property is forever changed for the worse.”

PICK OF THE WEEK: PATTON OSWALT

A regular on “Late Night with Conan O’Brien,” and the voice behind Remy, the lead charac-ter in Pixar’s “Ratatouille,” Patton Oswalt is a flourishing stand-up comedian, actor, writer and TV personality.

His most notable performance is that of Spence Olchin on the CBS’s King of Queens, and he can now be seen as Neil on Showtime’s “The United States of Tara.”

Oswalt lent his voice to the Grand Theft Auto video game series, as well as an episode of “Spongebob Squarepants,” in which he voiced the character “Jim.”

With numerous stand-up specials on both Comedy Central and HBO and four hit comedy albums under his belt (two of which peaked at No. 1 on the US Comedy charts), Oswalt’s fresh approach to observational, tongue-in-cheek humor is a safe bet for students looking to have a good time on Friday night while also enjoying their favorite beverage from the 40 Watt bar.

Steps to stop global warming still exist

It’s spreading faster than most STI’s. It’s gaining more popularity than Justin Bieber (thank God). I’m talking about YouTube sensa-tion Antoine Dodson.

You’ve seen it. It’s the video — the fourth most-viewed on YouTube this month — where Dodson warns the man who attacked his sister.

And while the autotuned video may be enter-taining and fun to jam to, the topic of rape is a serious subject. As reports of rape continue to stack up in Athens, The Red & Black wants to offer a few tips to veteran downtown partiers, as well as students who may be going downtown for the first time this weekend.

downtown), call Designated Dawgs. On Thursdays and Fridays, students volunteer to offer free, non-judgmental rides home. Program this number into your phone: 706-369-6601.

may not always be sexy, but it’s always safe. And it could save your life.

stay in well-lit areas and, if you feel unsafe, call the cops. A minor in possession ticket is better than some unwelcome groping (or worse) any day.

540 Baxter Street, Athens, Ga. 30605Opinions

Twilight is ...creepy. And not in a good way.

The Twilight craze reached new heights this summer with the release of the movie adaptation of Eclipse, the third book in the series.

It came with the obliga-tory screaming fangirls, ranging in age from pre-teens to soccer moms in their forties (gross).

Out of curiosity, I decided to read the series to see what everyone was going on about.

I accomplished this task, and it was not pretty.

I was left with one question — why, other than hot, shirtless guys and the pretense of romance, is this series so popular?

Is the heroine really cool? Does she beat the odds? Does she learn about herself and become a better person for it?

No, no and no.Bella goes to live with

her dad in the perpetually overcast town of Forks, Washington.

Although she doesn’t seem to have any qualities that stand out, everyone is drawn to her with one glaring exception: Edward

has just rolled in garbage

last year) every time he is near her.

it’s because he is a vam-pire and wants to drink her blood.

Apparently, this turns Bella on.

Well, there’s nothing like the thrill of not know-ing whether your boy-friend is going to kiss you or eat you.

That’s only the begin-

stalker and a self-righ-teous jerk, breaking Bella’s heart “for her own safety.” What a winner.

Bella isn’t really any better. The fact that dat-ing a vampire is potential-ly hazardous to her well-being aside, she seems to enjoy being treated like a child/dog.

She has no problem sinking her entire identity into her relationship with

Edward. When he dumps her, she acts like a moron. She walks alone down dark streets at night and jumps off high cliffs.

Why?She LOVES him. Oh, and she immediate-

ly takes Edward back, throwing Jacob the were-wolf away like trash.

The Twilight series is, in reality, pretty twisted.

This series has sparkly vampires and werewolves who have a tendency to become attracted to chil-dren.

These books take clas-sic creatures of horror and classic stories like Romeo and Juliet and Wuthering

into trash.Apparently, good horror

stories are better when the creatures are less than scary.

Literature is now better when it’s stripped of all believable characters and plot, and the writing sounds like that of a depressed thirteen-year-old.

In this “love” story, the adage “love conquers all” becomes “obsession and lust conquer all.”

What lessons do these books teach? Giving up everything for your boy-friend is the only purpose in life for all young girls.

In the end, Bella and Edward are still as obsessed and possessive of each other as always.

But don’t worry — she’s a vampire now, Jacob imprints on Renesmee, removing that painful thorn from Bella’s side without her really having to deal with it, and every-one lives happily ever after.

Except for one vampire, who dies for really no rea-son at all.

A great read for young women in America?

Nope.

— Garrison Copeland is a senior from Canton

majoring in Linguistics

Global warming is real, and the human responsi-

bility is vast.I listened to informa-

tion about it in high school and my early col-lege years.

I became more con-vinced that our actions needed to change in order to save our planet.

I knew that to debate with the nay-sayers, I would first have to edu-cate myself on the topic in an in depth manner.

I took Ecology 1000 with Dr. Porter, a world renowned researcher and scientist.

skills aside, the sheer amount of material I learned in his class con-vinced me that to make climate change and changing our actions a partisan, petty debate is to endanger our very lives.

We just need to get past our short-term mind-set and ultimate greed.

According to Dr. Porter, there is no debate within the scientific com-munity that global warm-ing is occurring.

It is because of human activities.

I have heard and read this statement from vari-ous sources, including the National Academy of Sciences.

I am inclined to trust the experts and profes-sionals in a field to know what the facts are and to present them to the gen-eral population.

A non-fact based opin-ion of scientific research is not legitimate.

This seems to be in vogue with many talking heads. “Belief” in global warming is irrelevant in light of the fact that it is happening.

Our focus, then, should be on how to proceed to save ourselves.

This is a goal I thought would be fairly universal and have widespread sup-port.

Remarkably, though, people still cling to knee-jerk reactions and rheto-ric to inform their views rather than intellect and research, presumably because the latter options require a bit more work

and facing harsh realities. In the future, with no

weather and climate sta-bility or, morbidly, no planet, money will not matter one bit.

I understand that busi-nesses are concerned about making the quick-est profit.

But our planet’s sur-vival and our material well-being are not mutu-ally exclusive.

Believe it or not, guys, we can work together.

Like it or not, we have to.

A strong economy and ethics do not need to be at odds with one another.

Plenty of car compa-nies have made the switch to hybrid vehicles and are profiting. Some European countries suc-cessfully provide electrici-ty with wind turbines.

A working electric car

before the oil lobbies killed plans for their expansion.

“Green jobs” could be created by making facto-ries more friendly to our Earth. Some small steps on the part of each

States could have a major impact on reducing car-bon emissions.

Government oversight and business accountabil-ity is necessary when our planet is at stake.

In the past, plenty of seemingly unchangeable business practices were eradicated in favor of more ethical behavior.

The practice of using humans as slaves for the landowner’s profit was

laws were enacted. The businesses affect-

ed by these changes dis-covered different meth-ods for profiting and moved onwards. The world did not end.

Slavery and child labor were harsher and more entrenched in society than using environmen-tally unsafe methods are now.

It is not inevitable that the status quo remain unchanged if it no longer benefits the common good.

I urge you to educate yourselves on the facts.

Keep our species’ long-term benefit in mind when you do.

Christianity worth more than name-calling

Despite your frustration with the opposition, perhaps you could put together a more instructive and cordial argument in the future. Your article is riddled with fallacies.

First, you attacked the people

instead of their stance, calling

Second, you misrepresented

While Jesus did associate with sinners and lowly or oppressed people of the day, he consistently called for repentance, not tolerance of sin.

Thankfully ours is a forgiving God.

Thirdly, you put words in the mouth of Jesus, who no longer being with us in the flesh, cannot defend himself.

So while I respect your right to voice your opinion, I suggest that you abstain from using a conde-scending attitude. Who knows, you might even convince a few people.

Senator’s history not worth his racist past

mocked the idea of renaming the Russell dorms on the grounds that numerous federal, state, and local buildings have been named in the honor of Richard Russell. “The

is racist,” Lindsay wrote sarcasti-cally.

Lindsay’s objection misses the

point. No one is arguing that build-ing names are indicative of person-al racism, per se. Rather, this is a matter of how we, as Southerners, remember our shared past.

After all the unimaginable pain caused by white supremacists, is it really wise of us to keep alive their legacy by erecting statues and naming buildings in their honor?

Georgia’s history is filled with countless men and women who fought tirelessly for social justice.

We should be honoring them with statues and buildings, not those like Russell who fought on the wrong side of history.

After all, if we continue to keep alive the worst aspects of our past, what kind of future will there be for any of us?

VARIETY The Red & Black | Thursday, August 19, 2010 | 7

By KELLY CORBETTTHE RED & BLACK

There is a new place in town to help put some pep in your step and inject a lit-tle caffeine into your blood stream.

Hendershot’s Coffee Bar, located next to Transmetropolitan at 1560 Oglethorpe Ave., is in its final stages of opening to the public.

Charlie Mustard, roast-ing master of Jittery Joe’s for the past 15 years, helped owner Seth Hendershot create the blends for the coffee bar, which will also serve wine and beer.

“It’s a very eclectic and very put-together place,” Mustard said.

Athens residents helped create many of the furnish-ings for the coffee bar, including a bike rack and railing outside.

Hendershot first started working with coffee at Starbucks in 1995, and then he came to Athens in 1998 for the music scene and got on board with Jittery Joe’s.

He is now the owner and operator of the tasting room at Jittery Joe’s Coffee Roasting Co. off East Broad St.

Hendershot debated a few names for the coffee shop in the beginning.

“I put a thread out on Facebook and was like, ‘Help me name this shop!’” Hendershot said.

The name that came back with the most responses was Hendershot’s, which even-tually grew on him.

It was Hendershot’s wife, Jennifer Inglett, who first pointed out the location to him.

“It was her idea, and I just pushed to bring it to life,” Hendershot said.

Hendershot said he enjoys the flexibility of his coffee job, which allows him extra time to spend with his family.

“I saw it as a really great way to make a living,”

Hendershot said.Hendershot met Chris

Godfrey, his business part-ner, through mutual friends.

Godfrey also owns Cutter’s Pub in downtown Athens.

In addition to coffee, Hendershot’s will offer five white wines, four red wines, a sparkling white wine called “New Age” and around 12 beers.

He is working out the specials now, and is plan-ning on appealing to poor college students.

“We will do an eight ounce coffee for a buck,” Hendershot said. “A reces-sion coffee.”

He also wants to do a teacher discount and addi-tional specials early in the week.

There will be two blends of coffee in the shop, including a dark 78 blend and a medium 45 blend.

The dark roast is a Sulawesi, with some char-acteristics of Sumatra that is spiced with some Indian monsooned coffee, Mustard said.

The medium roast includes a blend of coffee from Ethiopia, Brazil and Panama.

“These are like night and day,” Mustard said.

The coffee bar will fea-ture live music on Fridays and Saturdays, including Hendershot’s band, “The Granfalloons.”

“Wednesday nights, we’re going to eventually get an open mike story slam,” Hendershot said.

They might also hold a poetry or theatre night in the future.

As long as final inspec-tions pass, Hendershot’s will host the grand opening tonight, complete with live music by jazz infused rock-ers Kenosha Kid.

Even if they are unsuc-cessful in their attempt at a formal opening, people are welcome to come by, chat with Hendershot, enjoy some live music, and help themselves to some fresh coffee.

THE RED & BLACK

The sizzling August heat brings out more than just bikers and run-ners — higher temperatures can mean higher chances of dehydration for unprepared students.

Students who exercise on South Campus often find shelter from the sun in the woods around Lake Herrick.

Kate Daniels, a kinesiology major from Calhoun, said she prefers run-ning in the evenings at the Intramural Fields.

Students have also found other ways to beat the heat.

“I run at the Botanical Garden because it is shady and cool,” said Sarah Shelnutt, a Watkinsville native who is working on her master’s degree in public health. “I go at eight in the morning because the ground that I run on has cooled off.”

Though shade is a good way to stay cool, Dr. Kevin Sanville a physi-cian at the University Health Center, said fluids are the key.

“Hydration, hydration, hydra-tion,” Sanville said. “Failure to drink enough fluids causes most of the problems in the heat.”

Drinking fluids to constantly replenish the liquids lost by sweat during exercise is one of the best ways to keep from getting heat exhaustion, Sanville said.

“If you are going to be exercising for more than 60 minutes, you should be drinking a sports drink like Gatorade to replenish the nutri-ents lost,” said Angie Ruhlen, a nutritionist at the University Health Center. “However, if you are exercis-ing less, then water should be fine.”

Both Sanville and Ruhlen, along with Maria Breen, research profes-sional for the food and nutrition department, said hydrating well before exercise and throughout the day is a good idea and stressed the importance of re-hydrating when done exercising.

“For every pound of body weight lost, you want to get 24 ounces of fluid back in after exercising,” Breen said. For some students, this might be difficult.

“I usually don’t drink during my runs,” Daniels said. “But I’m contin-uously drinking water during the day and definitely afterward.”

Besides hydrating, it is important to eat something an hour before exercising, especially in the heat.

“It’s good to have a snack an hour beforehand — carbohydrates or a little bit of protein like a granola bar or cheese and crackers,” Ruhlen

said.Breen, who works with the

University athletic department, said the department has a hydration schedule for all athletic practices.

“We encourage athletes to eat foods with fluids in them, like fruits — any sort of fruit or vegetable that is high in water,” Breen said.

However, if you are planning on exercising after a meal, Ruhlen sug-gests eating light and waiting at least two hours.

“Try to eat a small meal without a lot of fat so you are not exercising with something heavy on your stom-ach,” Ruhlen said.

One of the major causes for con-cern with exercising in the heat is

heat exhaustion. The symptoms of heat exhaus-

tion are dizziness, tiredness, fatigue, rapid pulse, shallow breathing, mus-cle cramping and thirst.

“The difference between normal aches of exercise and heat exhaus-tion are the intensity of the pain,” Sanville said. “If runners get a mus-cle cramp that stops them in their tracks, that’s more than just normal aches.”

Sanville said there is a fine line between heat exhaustion and heat stroke — heat stroke always requires immediate medical attention.

“Don’t wait to drink until you’re thirsty,” Sanville said. “By then, you are already dehydrated.”

Hydration is the key to survival

University students who find themselves outdoors during peak heat hours need to be conscious of their fluid intake, since symptoms of dehydration can easily sneak up undetected.

First-year defensive coordinator Todd Grantham (above) is still figuring out ways to best utilize Georgia’s talent on the defensive side of the ball.

From Page 1

besides the obvious refer-ences toward A.J. Green — has been sophomore Marlon Brown, who came in last season after being highly rated out of high school but took some time adjusting to the college game. Brown missed much of the spring with a shoul-der injury, but has made up for the lost time this preseason.

“Marlon has done awe-some,” Bobo said. “For one, he has been healthy, and he’s been out there for every practice. He’s a stronger kid, he’s a more flexible kid, and he’s got a better understanding of the offense. He’s made a lot of tough catches. I’m very pleased with the prog-ress of Marlon.”

With the season opener less than three weeks away, defensive coaches are working on solidifying positions for the different players.

Grantham wants players comfortable at multiple positions

A major mainstay of defensive coordinator Todd Grantham’s pre-season focus has been building as much depth as possible.

The method behind this concentration on depth is to figure out ways to put his best players on the field as often as possi-ble.

As a result, Grantham has his “inside [lineback-ers] are playing both posi-tions, outside [lineback-ers] are playing both posi-tions, defensive ends are playing both sides, nose [tackles] are playing some defensive end, safeties are playing both spots.”

Grantham said they will continue to do that for the next couple of practices, but they’re “honing in on where some guys are going to start [the season at].”

“You’ve got to move

them around and kind of go through some growing pains for a couple days to get them used to those positions, because down the road it’ll help you because it’ll give you more depth,” Grantham said.

As senior inside line-backer Akeem Dent con-tinues to rehab a fractured foot that has sidelined him for much of the preseason, the coaching staff plans to work him back slowly.

But hopes remain he will be ready for the sea-son opener against Louisiana-Lafayette.

“Yet to be determined,” Grantham said when asked of how much Dent would play in the opener. “We’ll kind of see how the other guys progress and how he feels. He is an older guy, so I don’t think it would take him as long to get ready to play. I think that how we would play him, or if we would play him, would kind of depend on how he does.”

DEPTH: Brown impresses Bobo

Prized recruit James Wilder Jr. of Plant High School in Tampa, Fla., came into the news con-ference Wednesday to announce which school he would attend next season wearing a black shirt and a red sweater vest — with Georgia among the trio of finalists along with Florida and Florida State.

Before he made his choice known to the pub-lic, however, he took a cue from the “LeBron James School of Agonizingly Drawing Out A Decision.”

He thanked everyone in attendance for showing up.

He thanked God.He thanked his team-

mates and coaches.And then decision time

was finally at hand. Wilder reached under the table he was speaking at to pull out the ballcap identifying

his school of choice, only to reveal he was not ready to announce yet.

He then gave thanks to his immediate family and his parents.

And his neph-ew.

And his girl-friend.

Then, finally, all kidding now over, he revealed what school he had decided upon — Florida State — putting a Seminole hat on his head and throwing in a tomahawk chop for good measure.

Wilder told ESPN’s Corey Long he had made up his mind to become a

Seminole two days ago, but after a report Tuesday pegged him to commit to Georgia he decided to run with it.

“When my friends told me about that I just kind of laughed,” Wilder told Long. “And then I put on

this red and black and figured I’d have a little fun with it.”

Cornerback pros-pect chooses Gators

Georgia also lost out on another recruit Wednesday.

Highly-regarded cornerback prospect Nick Waisome

announced Wednesday night on ESPNU he had chosen to play for the Florida Gators for the next four years.
