With gold and blue pa-per bow ties on both of his computer monitors and his office bathroom mir-ror, it’s obvious West Vir-ginia University President Gordon Gee is a fan of the fashion statement.
Gee, who dons a bow tie nearly everywhere he goes, began his collection at the age of 15 in the rural town of Vernal, Utah.
“I went to Salt Lake City with my father to get my eyes examined, and there was this guy sitting next to me with one of these things on, and I was looking at it, because I’d never seen one before,” Gee said. “So, he could tell my curiosity, he undid it, and I just became fascinated with it.
“I begged my father to get me one, and the rest is history.”
While other univer-sity presidents may spend their money on traveling, luxurious hotels, fancy dinners and lavish parties, Gee buys bow ties. He cur-rently has more than 1,000 “active” ties in his collec-tion and another 1,000 that were recently converted into a blanket as a birth-day gift.
“I don’t smoke, I don’t drink, I don’t play golf and I don’t play tennis, but I buy bow ties,” Gee said. “That’s kind of my indulgence.”
Throughout the years, Gee has received numer-ous bow ties as gifts, and with the list of universities where he’s served as pres-ident, such as Ohio State, Brown, Vanderbilt and WVU, the variety of colors and designs are endless.
Gee doesn’t have a fa-vorite bow tie, though, as he said that would be like choosing one child over another. He also aims to wear each bow tie only once per year.
“I kind of have a way to circulate them, and I keep them color coordinated,” Gee said. “I’m OCD badly (sic), so they all have to be hung exactly the right way.”
Gee’s favorite bow tie makers include the Brooks Brothers; Carrot & Gibbs of Boulder, Colo.; Ben Silver of Charleston, S.C.; Beau Ties of Vermont and of course, local favorite, Dan-iel’s, where Gee said he has bought all of his WVU bow ties.
When Gee first served as WVU’s president in the ’80s, he was only 37 years old, which made him one of the youngest presi-dents in academia at the
time. With his bow ties, sense of style and friendly demeanor, Gee said he could’ve passed as a stu-dent at times.
“When I first came to this institution, the peo-ple’s impression was that
you had to be a tall, distin-guished, gravelly voiced-looking guy with a long tie and so forth,” Gee said. “I was criticized because I looked more like a student than I did a faculty mem-ber and certainly not the university president.

The West Virginia Univer-sity Intensive English Pro-gram is seeking students and Morgantown commu-nity members to participate in the Conversation Part-ners program for the spring 2014 semester.
The program is designed to help international stu-dents improve their English-speaking skills and get con-nected with the University on a deeper level.
“We pair one of our (in-ternational) students with an interested American stu-
dent and have them work with them and talk with them to improve their oral English proficiency skills,” said Drake Asberry, a WVU graduate teaching assistant for IEP.
There are no require-ments regarding where and when the partners meet or what type of learning ac-tivities they decide to en-gage in, and students seek-ing any type of degree can participate.
“We just ask that they have an appropriate amount of time. Most partners meet once a week for about an hour, but it’s open to them so they can meet more if
they’d like to,” Asberry said. In the past, Asberry said
partners have done every-thing ranging from meet-ing on campus for lunch once a week to going hiking, to meeting in a common area or traveling together. The partners are paired based on similar interests.
“The most common rea-son (international students need this program) is that to study at a university in the United States, these stu-dents need to gain English proficiency to pass a test or graduate from our program if they have a condition of acceptance at WVU,” As-berry said.
Other students are part of the program for profes-sional reasons, working to improve their English and professional abilities in their home country.
“All international stu-dents are going to have to prove their English profi-ciency in some way. The most common way is to take the standard English profi-ciency test,” Asberry said. “International students who have been condition-ally accepted to WVU must
either pass the TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Lan-guage)or complete the IEP with a GPA of 3.0 or better.”
The majority of students in the IEP are from the Ja-pan, Brazil and the Mid-dle East. As of now, Asberry said the program is in need of 30 more native English speakers.
Asberry said the great thing about this program is that it is not structured, and it is up to the partners to make the experience as lit-tle or as great as they want it to be.
“You’re simply just talk-ing and hanging out, mak-ing a new friend, learn-
ing about a new culture. It’s a great opportunity and just as valuable for the American students who participate,” Asberry said.
“Our students absolutely love the experience. To us, it sounds simple, but that’s the neat thing about it. It’s eye-opening and broadens your horizons.”
Interested students can fill out the registration form online. To learn more about the IEP or to sign up for the Conversation Partners pro-gram, visit http://iep.wvu.edu.

doesn’t matter at all.“Do not be what other
people want you to be. Be who you are,” Gee said. “There’s such a level of com-fort about that. Every student at this institution is a different person, and they bring such great gifts individually.
“So, don’t let people pi-geonhole you in any partic-ular way.”

Choir to sing music of South AfricaBY LACEY PALMER
A&E EDITOR @lAcEyPAlmER
After sharing a stage with U2, Aretha Franklin and the Red Hot Chili Peppers and performing for former South African President Nelson Mandela and for-mer United States President Bill Clinton, the Soweto Gospel Choir has decided to bring their newest show to the West Virginia Univer-sity Creative Arts Center in Morgantown.
The group – which sings in six of South Africa’s of-ficial languages, includ-ing English, Xhosa, Zulu
and Sotho – shares the mu-sic of Soweto, South Af-rica, creating a world music experience.
“Our concerts are very lively with lots of singing, dancing and drumming,” said Shimmy Jiyane, mem-ber and choreographer for the group. “The con-certs also reflect our mod-ern, South African culture, so audiences can expect to hear both traditional and contemporary music. We incorporate a large range of musical influences into our shows, but we give each song a distinct feel that is recognizably our own.”
With 24 choir members
total – 10 women and 14 men, the group’s most re-cent tour, “Divine,” will showcase the cultural mu-sic of their area while touching on a multitude of musical styles, such as up-beat tunes and harmoniz-ing vocals.
“Audiences can ex-pect uplifting music, col-orful costumes and danc-ing,” Jiyane said. “For us, the highlight of this tour is being able to dedicate as-pects of our performance to the late Nelson Mandela. We feel very honored to be able to perform songs such as Johnny Clegg’s ‘Asim-bonanga’ in his honor.”
After Mandela’s pass-ing earlier in the year, the Soweto Gospel Choir has taken the opportunity to pay tribute to their coun-try’s former leader, who changed the entire course of the country.
“It brings us so much happiness and fulfillment to show people the joyful as-pects of our culture,” Jiyane said. “I believe the choir has played a very important role in showing the world South Africa’s rich heritage and tradition of music. South Africa is a vibrant nation, and this is best expressed through our rich history of music and dance.”
Jiyane joined the choir in 2002 when auditions were held in Soweto. He said prior to joining this choir, almost every member was a member of some other mu-sical group.
“For us, performing has always been a part of our lives,” Jiyane said. “In South Africa, we sing when we are happy and when we are sad. South Africans have a great connection with music, and singing has always been a big part of our lives.”
Tickets for tonight’s show can be purchased at the Mountainlair or Creative Arts Center box offices or by calling 304-293-SHOW.
Tickets range from $46-$66 and are $28 for students.
The show is set to be-gin at 7:30 p.m. in the Ly-ell B. Clay Concert Theatre as part of the Unviersity Art Series.
“It is always our mission to bring joy, peace and hap-piness to our fans,” Jiyane said. “Audiences can ex-pect to hear music that they can connect with and mu-sic that has a strong mes-sage. We like songs that are uplifting, and we hope they go away from our con-certs feeling inspired by our performance.”
Jay Leno leaves ‘The Tonight Show’ in Jimmy Fallon’s hands
glamour.comJay Leno hosted his last episode of “The Tonight Show” with Billy Crystal and Barack Obama.
Jay Leno, host of “The Tonight Show,” said a tear-ful goodbye to his show Fri-day night after more than two decades of hosting.
“The Tonight Show” will be taken over by comedian Jimmy Fallon, the previous host of “Late Night with Jimmy Fallon.” Jimmy Fal-lon also bid farewell to his show of the last five years Friday. “The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon” pre-mieres Feb. 17. Seth Mey-ers will take over “Late Night” beginning Feb. 24.
Leno first left “The To-night Show” in 2009 and was briefly replaced by Conan O’Brien. Ratings sank after Leno’s first de-parture, and he returned to the show. This time, Leno departs with plans to focus on comedy clubs and his personal hobbies.
Leno was sent off with
well wishes from many celebrities, such as Billy Crystal, Jack Black, Garth Brooks and President Barack Obama.
Leno explained during his last show that the crew became his family after his mother, father and brother had passed away. He tear-fully explained his run on the show was the “greatest 22 years of my life.” Leno’s 22-year run on “The To-night Show” was the sec-ond longest, compared to Johnny Carson’s 30 years hosting the show.
Jimmy Fallon also said an emotional goodbye to his show. Fallon’s guests included fellow “Satur-day Night Live” cast mem-ber Andy Samberg and The Muppets. Fallon opened the show with an up-beat performance of “On A Night Like This” with The Roots and Buckwheat Zydeco.
Fallon said he was amazed that “Late Night” did not exist five years ago
and that he has told 10,000 monologue jokes in his time hosting.
“I want to thank the fans. I can’t believe it,” Fal-lon said. “This didn’t exist five years ago. There was no such thing as this show five years ago. Isn’t that crazy to even believe that?
“It means the world to me. You make me so happy. Thank you so much.”
Fallon included his fa-mous “Thank You” notes sketch in his last show. Fallon and his announcer Steve Higgins shared mem-ories of the show before Fallon performed “The Weight” by The Band with The Muppets.
Fallon chose to perform with The Muppets because in his studio, he found ex-posed pipes in a dressing room that were painted by Jim Henson while he waited to be a guest on one of the late night shows hosted in the studio. Fallon enclosed the pipes in glass for everyone to see.
At the end of the show, Fallon exited his stage and walked across the hall to the doors of “The Tonight Show” and entered to all of his new crew there to greet him.
“The Tonight Show” will definitely receive a facelift with Fallon hosting. Leno was a legendary late night host, but some of his jokes fell flat, and he was not scoring the ratings he used
to. Fallon will bring a fresh perspective to the 11:35 p.m. slot and will prove he is worthy of hosting “The Tonight Show.”

Buzzfeed quizzes spark conversation on social media
Ever wondered which country star you are most like? How about which un-derdog nation you should be rooting for in the Olym-pics? Buzzfeed’s quiz sec-tion has sparked conversa-tion on social media and talk shows recently, and your friends’ results are probably flooding your news feed as you read this.
Buzzfeed is a popular website that posts articles on news, entertainment, life and other subjects that are all tailored to the spe-cific author’s point of view. Many of these articles are humorous and bring up in-teresting topics to the tar-get reader. Some of these articles include corgis go-ing extinct and their favor-ite products from the ’90s.
Buzzfeed also offers a
“community posting” sec-tion, allowing anyone to blog and be a Buzzfeed au-thor on the board. These posts vary widely in topic and let the typical reader speak their mind.
Buzzfeed has a “quiz-zes” section, which has gone unnoticed to some for quite some time. How-ever, recently, many have discovered these unusual quizzes.
Facebook and Twitter timelines and news feeds have been covered in posts about these quizzes, and when you find your re-sult, you can share it on these sites with all of your friends or followers.
These quizzes have gone viral and have al-lowed quiz takers to ques-tion, “Should I really live in London?” or “Which circle of Hell will I go to?” (based on Dante’s Inferno, of course.)
Many of the questions on these quizzes are com-
pletely irrelevant, which makes them fun to take.
For example, on the quiz to find out which Disney couple is actu-ally your ideal relation-ship, Buzzfeed dips into the subconscious and de-termines the answer based on questions like “Who would you want on your side in a fight?” and asks you to pick your favorite cake from a variety of pic-tures of nine cakes.
One of the more inter-esting and unusual quiz-zes that ignited conversa-tion on NBC’s Today Show was “Which Al Roker Are You?” noting “We’ve all got a little piece of the Inter-net’s favorite weather fore-caster inside of our hearts.”
After answering ques-tions regarding where you’d like to live after re-tirement and who is your favorite detective, you are given that Al Roker you are most like. Answers vary from “Al Roker vs. The
Wind” to “The Rokering Al Roker,” which is Al Roker standing eeriliy by a lamp.
These quizzes on Buzzfeed allow any reader to take a few minutes and laugh at what decade they actually belong in or which character they are most like in “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia.” The share-ability of these quizzes is high due to the uncommon topics and hi-larious results.
“The Buzzfeed quizzes are a pick-me-up while I’m on a break at work and are too funny to not share with my friends,” said Stephani Smith, a WVU graduate student.
These quizzes will prob-ably not subside from your timeline anytime soon, but instead of hastily log-ging off Facebook, take a minute to resolve some of your most pressing questions.

NEW YORK (AP) —Clearly, there’s room for Beatles, zombies and Olympic athletes on the same night of television.
NBC’s Sunday night O l y mp i c s c ove rag e reached 26.3 million viewers, essentially even with the 26.4 million who watched the first Sunday in Vancouver four years ago.
A CBS special about the 50th anniversary of the Beatles’ performance on the “Ed Sullivan Show”
with performances by Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr was seen by about 14 mil-lion people. The 15.8 mil-lion that watched “The Walking Dead” was its sec-ond biggest audience ever while “Downton Abbey” held up with 6.7 million.
One clear cultural dif-ference: Nielsen says “The Walking Dead” was mentioned in 1.2 million tweets, while the Bea-tles special hit 260,000 tweets.
NEW YORK (AP) — Seth Meyers says former com-edy colleague Fred Ar-misen will lead the band when he takes over NBC’s “Late Night.”
Meyers tweeted Mon-day that his former “Satur-day Night Live” castmate will “curate and lead” the band and run it even while shooting his IFC comedy series “Portlandia.” NBC confirms the news.
Armisen is best known as a comic performer from “Portlandia” and his decade at “SNL.” But
he began show business as a drummer, princi-pally for the punk-rock band Trenchmouth in the 1990s.
He will handle vo-cals and guitar for “Late Night’s” 8G Band. Other players include Seth Ja-bour on guitar, Syd But-ler on bass, Eli Janney on keyboards and Kimberly Thompson on drums.
“Late Night with Seth Meyers” premieres Feb. 24. “Portlandia” returns for its fourth season three days later.

EDITORIAL
Lena Dunham, creator of the hit HBO show “Girls,” has been lauded by some as a pioneer for women who are comfortable in their bodies by displaying ample amounts of skin on most ep-isodes of her show.
Dunham herself is naked quite often. In 2012, she was filmed eating cake naked on a toilet at the Emmy Awards show.
But she is not without fans. Buzzfeed.com us-ers often create “Why Lena Dunham Is Great” lists. The Hollywood Reporter’s Tim Goodman called her show “one of the most original, spot-on, no-missed-steps series in recent memory.”
Some critics have at-tacked “Girls” for being nar-cissistic, lacking in racial di-versity (there are no women or men of color in the show),
and documents privileged millenials complaining about things only relevant to other privileged millenials.
If you haven’t seen it, “Girls” follows the post-col-lege lives of aspiring writer Hannah Horvath, chroni-cally self-concious Marnie Michaels, bohemian and un-reliable Jessa Johansson, and odd-man-out Shoshanna Shapiro. The characters deal with deeply disturbed boy-friend figures, mental illness and a constant shortage of funds.
But how many of these “problems” are “real”?
Recent graduates having sex on dirty couches? Falling in with a shady drug dealer and switching shirts with a gay guy at a club?
Some of the topics are true to life: coming to grips with emotionally distant males
not interested in a relation-ship, awkwardly signing at an ex-boyfriends birthday party in an attempt to win him back, and having to get a job because the parental fi-nancial well has dried up.
But some of the episodes are just odd.
In a recent season 3 epi-sode, Hannah faces uncer-tainty when her editor dies unexpectedly, and she is in danger of losing her e-book deal. In this chain of events, the viewers learn Hannah is a sociopath, with no remorse or feelings beyond her own selfish whims. Hardly some-thing we can all relate to.
Each of the characters have these moments of bla-tant narcissism, which is maybe the point – to cast a light on the dark, self-ab-sorbed side of us all. But none of these characters
have redeeming qualities. They’re all spastic, selfish creatures that get themselves into mostly awkward scenes.
However, “Girls” has paved the way for discussing topics such as recreational drug use, mental illness and anxiety, casual sex, and the hardships of post-collegiate life on late-night television.
To further expand her reach, Dunham has an-nounced her first book “Not That Kind Of Girl” will hit the shelves on Oct. 7. Dunham has described the books as a hybrid of memoir and ad-vice, in which she shares what she’s “learned.”
There isn’t much descrip-tion beyond that.
This could be another at-tempt to reach out to au-diences with her message: anyone can be successful and beautiful.
Dunham has certainly been able to hold her own and fight off even her most out-spoken and negative critics, but it remains to be seen how this will translate into an entire memoir.
GAWKER.COMComedian Lena Dunham recently announced her book, ‘Not That Kind of Girl,’ will be released in October.

UnlockingYour
DreamsThe secret of lucid
dreaming
There’s something about the dream world that is end-lessly fascinating to humans.
We expend an exhaust-ing amount of energy into our waking hours. There’s so much to be done from day to day that most of us crave the sweet relief of our nightly dreams. Who doesn’t fanta-size about curling up in their bed, safe under the covers, and drifting off into a stress-free dreamland?
Our dreams tend to dom-inate our thoughts when we first wake in the morning. More often than not, though, we blink and forget what felt like a vivid reality just a sec-ond ago.
Dream researcher J. Al-lan Hobson estimates that 95 percent of all dreams are forgotten shortly after rising. This may be due to the inac-tivity of the frontal lobes nec-essary for memory formation during REM sleep. Wouldn’t it be amazing to not only re-member our dreams, but even control the content?
This is where the concept of lucid dreaming comes into play. A lucid dream is one in which you are aware you are dreaming even though
you’re asleep. There are varying degrees
of lucid dreaming: at the most basic level, you some-what realize that you are in a dream. At a higher level, how-ever, you are totally aware of not being in physical reality and may be able to control the content and direction of your dreams to a large extent.
The 2010 movie “Incep-tion” starring Leonardo Di-Caprio was inspired by the concept; director Christo-pher Nolan is a self-pro-claimed lucid dreamer.
Many great creative think-ers and intellectuals have been known to have lucid dreams. The king of horror, Stephen King, has drawn inspiration this way to pro-duce his bestsellers and wrote about the topic in “Insomnia.”
Andy and Lana Wa-chowski, the creators of “The Matrix,” really delved into the idea of lucid dreaming in their sci-fi trilogy. The se-ries has even been called “an instruction manual for lucid dreamers.”
The first step to achiev-ing lucid dreams is to start remembering them. Lucid-ity denotes a sense of men-tal clarity. Keep a notepad and pen by your bed and get into the habit of jotting down as much as you can. There’s
no need to give a play-by-play synopsis; just a few keywords will help you re-call the big picture. You’ll be surprised at how much this habit sharpens your aware-ness and connects you more to your dream life.
Any delightful combina-tion of fantasy and adven-ture that can be concocted by your unconscious is grounds for lucid dreaming. With no physical laws binding you, the universe is your oyster. You can fly, soar through space, and feel an incredi-ble rush of exhilaration from the endless opportunities of exploration.
We all know that in the waking world, things don’t work in quite the same way. Let the day be the only time physical laws of gravity con-strain you; at night, it’s your time to flex your creativity and let your spirit run free.
The creative potential for your dreams is through the roof. Just think about some of the crazy stuff you have dreamed before. Sometimes in life we get caught in think-ing the same thoughts over and over again, and dreams can be an exciting escape from that habit.
Discovering how to be-come a lucid dreamer is al-
most like discovering a whole new world. Becoming the co-creator of your dreams, instead of being held hos-tage by nightmares or anxi-ety-ridden dreams, is a pow-erful way to connect to your subconscious. If you do tend to suffer from dreams filled with negative emotions, lu-cid dreaming is the perfect way to take control and get the peaceful sleep that you deserve back.
In my experience, lucid dreaming has been transcen-dent. It’s led me to question the nature of reality in less of a pesky, needling way and in more of a mystified “How did
I do that?” and “Aren’t life’s mysteries amazing?” sort of way.
It has led to a feeling of awe at all the untapped power of our minds and universe in general. A night’s sleep spent lucid dreaming gives a far dif-ferent feeling than a normal night. I wake with a sense of peace, contentment, and amazing energy, similar to the feeling after meditation.
Anyone can learn to have lucid dreams and bene-fit from them, and I would strongly encourage anyone to start right now.
HANNAH CHENOWETHCOLUMNIST
ILOvELUCIDDREAMING.COMLucid dreaming, when the dreamer is aware they are dreaming, has been linked to increased awareness and creativity in the waking world.
Last week I wrote about the recent SeaWorld scan-dal. I couldn’t help but no-tice the strong reaction the column received. While I am glad to be able to bring aware-ness to an issue I’m passion-ate about, I do feel responsi-ble to address one concern brought to my attention.
Several readers expressed SeaWorld would never be for-given by the public until it sets all of the orcas free and no longer has whales in captivity.
While I agree whales can only thrive in their natural environment, people seem to forget there are hundreds
of zoos currently holding wild animals in captivity, as well. The captivity is not what should particularly enrage you. It is SeaWorld’s mistreat-ment of these animals.
While the documentary “Blackfish” brings to light all of the reasons why whales should not be in captivity, it also explains why SeaWorld could never “free” the whales as much as we all wish they would.
Orcas are family oriented creatures. They hunt together, travel together and calves re-main by their mother’s side even though adulthood. As the film noted, each pod has its own unique culture. Aside from exhibiting different lan-guages, each family devel-ops a different diet, and a
killer whale never eats any-thing that it is not specifically taught to eat (proving why these whales would never kill a human in the wild).
These orcas were caught at a very young age, and many were born at the parks. These whales were stripped of any natural instinct they had. Even if they were set free, these whales would not be able to survive on their own. They have been hand-fed their entire lives and were never taught how to hunt.
Keiko, the star of “Free Wil-ley” was set free in 2002, re-turning to his native environ-ment in the Atlantic Ocean after spending 19 years in captivity. Scientists tracked Keiko’s journey and al-though the whale had shown
he could adjust to his new life for some time, he died nearly a year after his release.
To put it into perspective, imagine setting your fam-ily pet free. Fido would not stand a chance on the streets, mainly because he would not know how to hunt for his own food. And why would he?
The same goes for these whales. They have become SeaWorld’s pets, and the corporation is ultimately doomed if they set the whales free and doomed if they don’t. It is sad, but true.
Former SeaWorld trainer Samantha Berg suggested in the film that these whales should be released to live out the remainder of their lives in an open ocean pen, and I completely agree. The open
ocean pen is a great compro-mise, because it would allow the whales to live in their nat-ural environment while not jeopardizing their lives.
If you are truly advocating for the wellbeing of these an-imals, setting the whales free
is not a realistic solution. The public needs to begin focus-ing its energy on an alter-native way to provide these creatures the lives they de-serve to live.

What a great DEAL!
HE DAILY ATHENAEUM
BY JACQUELINE BIGAR
BORN TODAY This year you seem more in tune with various elements of your day-to-day life. You make more time for those you care about, and you show your appreciation to the people who make your life bet-ter. If you are single, you suddenly might notice someone who has been around you for years. This bond could evolve rather quickly, as long as you don’t put the brakes on. If you are at-tached, the two of you feel more con-nected than you have in the past. You also participate in each other’s lives more.
ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL 19) HHHH Opportunities will pop up from out of the blue, but conflict might surround whatever path you choose. Someone could push to have
his or her way. Initially, you will try to be caring, but later you could be-come sarcastic. Maintain your bound-aries. Tonight: A must appearance.
TAURUS (APRIL 20-MAY 20) HHH Your ability to communicate emerges, which allows greater give-and-take between you and others. Focus on a get-together, where you will see potential supporters and friends. You might be taken aback by an insight you gain through a con-versation. Tonight: Hang out with friends.
GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 20) HHHH You could be far more in tune with the potential of a money and/or busi-ness offer than the person presenting the idea. Realize the ramifications of heading in that direction with others who are not as aware as you would like them to be. Share news with a
friend. Tonight: Your treat.
CANCER (JUNE 21-JULY 22) HHH You will be in a situation that allows you to look past the obvious. Touch base with someone at a distance. A higher-up could be unpredictable and create additional tension in a meeting. You might feel far more upbeat than you have in a while. To-night: Feeling great.
LEO (JULY 23-AUG. 22) HHHH You might want to do something very differently once you gain an un-derstanding of what is happening around you. You will gain more in-sight into what makes someone tick. Be willing to distance yourself from a difficult person in your life. Tonight: Not to be found.
VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEPT. 22) HHH You might want to take action re-
garding a loved one. When push comes to shove, this person will head in the direction that you have chosen for him or her. As a result, the two of you will see eye to eye far more than you might have thought. Tonight: Only where the action is.
LIBRA (SEPT. 23-OCT. 22) HHHH You might not want to know what is ailing a higher-up. You’ll see a situa-tion with far more openness and in-genuity than others, which will make you the natural leader. Others follow your lead. Be willing to talk through a situation and root out a problem. Tonight: Out late.
SCORPIO (OCT. 23-NOV. 21) HH You might want to head in a new direc-tion. Get feedback from those who embrace more progressive thinking. Your ability to see someone more clearly than many other people do
will help guide you in the right direc-tion. Tonight: Read between the lines.
SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22-DEC. 21) HHH You might feel as if you can’t get enough done. You tend to be very sympathetic to an emotional family member who often wants to share his or her feelings. You might not real-ize how much this person needs you. Tonight: Why not go for some fun?
CAPRICORN (DEC. 22-JAN. 19) HHHH You might want to be more direct with someone, but on some level you fear this person’s reaction. You intuitively know what to say, and you’ll follow though accordingly. Un-derstand what your goals are and how the two of you might need to work together. Tonight: Hang out.
AQUARIUS (JAN. 20-FEB. 18) HH Your nurturing side emerges. Listen
to others, and you will know how to handle a problem. Honor a change, and be more forthright. A person you deal with daily might make a big dif-ference in your life. Let this person know that he or she is appreciated. Tonight: Make it early.
PISCES (FEB. 19-MARCH 20) HH Your imagination will lead to some fun as you start to share your thoughts. Someone close to you could find you humorous. Even if you both are tense, the laughter will take the edge off. Follow your gut with someone you really care about. To-night: Let your hair down.

No. 13 WVU continues to climb
By KeViN HooKerSportS Writer
@Dailyathenaeum
Following yet another successful week, the West Virginia women’s basket-ball team climbed to No. 13 in this week’s AP Top 25. The Mountaineers de-feated Kansas State 84-44 Saturday to move up from No. 17.
The win gave WVU its eighth 20-win season in the last 11 years. It’s cur-rently 20-3 overall and 9-2 in conference play, good enough for the No 2 spot in the Big 12. This week’s ranking is WVU’s highest since being No. 12 on Nov. 19, 2012.
Despite the recognition, head coach Mike Carey is focused on playing one
game at a time.“I’ve said it a (few) times,
but it’s something we’re re-ally not concerned about,” Carey said. “We knew be-fore the season started that we were a top-20 team, but we weren’t getting the recognition.”
Th e Mo u nt a i n e e r s will look to extend their winning streak to four games Thursday in a road matchup at Oklahoma. The team returns to Mor-gantown for a 1 p.m. tip off with TCU on Sunday.
With seven regular sea-son games on the sched-ule, the Mountaineers could finish with their best season under Carey.
In comparison, the last time the men’s basketball team even cracked the Top 25 was March, 14, 2011
when the team was No. 22 nationally. Those were the days when Kevin Jones and Truck Bryant still ran the offense.
Now in her senior sea-son, center Aysa Bus-sie has made an impact in the paint during her fi-nal year at WVU. Averag-ing 13.2 points and 7.7 re-bounds per game, Bussie is tied for No. 8 in the Big 12 in rebounding, and No. 11 in scoring. She anchors a defense that gives up just under 59 points per con-test, good for fourth best in conference.
Sophomore guard Bria Holmes scored a career-high 31 points on 10-14 shooting in 28 minutes of action Saturday. She also grabbed six rebounds and blocked a shot.
“I’ve said this all along. Bria’s (Holmes) best bas-ketball is ahead of her. I said it last year, and I’m saying it again this year, once she learns to grab the offensive rebounds, drib-ble lower and make some moves to get into the paint, then she’s going to be re-ally hard to guard,” Carey said.
With five seniors on roster, it will be up to u n d e rc l a s s m e n l i k e Holmes to carry a bigger responsibility.
“She’s long. She does as good of (a) job as any-one at defending the drib-ble,” Carey said. “(She) cuts (defenders) off and it’s hard to shoot over her. She’s a tough match up.”
DOYLE MAURER/THE DAILY ATHENAEUMWest Virginia center Asya Bussie fights her way through the Kansas State defense Saturday.
Haley leading by example for WVUBy DilloN DUrst
SportS Writer @Dailyathenaeum
As the season pro-gresses, junior gymnast Dayah Haley has proved herself to be a valuable upperclassmen leader for West Virginia.
With a relatively young roster, the Mountaineers are relying heavily on lead-ership from experienced gymnasts like Haley as the regular season begins to wind down.
Before arriving at WVU, Haley was a standout com-petitor at the club level. The Pasadena, Md., na-tive was a Level 10 gym-nast out of Hills Gymnas-tics. She was a two-time Junior Olympics National Championships quali-fier and finished second
on vault at the 2011 state championships.
Haley also claimed fifth place in the all-around at the 2011 Level 10 national championships.
When it was time to make her college deci-sion, Haley cited the at-mosphere and coaching staff as the two main fac-tors that brought her to Morgantown.
“The campus is so beau-tiful, and I really liked the coaching staff,” Haley said.
During her first sea-son with the Mountain-eers, she was thrown into action right away, com-peting in all 12 meets on the bars and vault events. At the end of the season, Haley was a finalist for the East Atlantic Gymnastics League Rookie of the Year award.
Haley also owned a sea-son average score of 9.716 on vault and a 9.664 aver-age score on bars, ranking fourth on the team.
In 2013, Haley again competed in all 12 meets for the Mountaineers, scoring a total of 269.8 points. She owned season average scores of 9.731 on vault, 9.595 on floor and 9.532 on bars.
So far this season, Haley has not missed a beat. Two weeks ago at home against George Washington and Towson, the junior posted a career-best score of 9.825 on the floor routine, good enough for second place overall.
Haley also turned in two solid performances over the weekend against Big 12 foe Iowa State on the road, scoring 9.725 on floor, fin-
ishing seventh overall. She also posted a 9.725 score on vault.
For several weeks, the Mountaineers have been within striking distance of their goal score of 196, something Haley said the team is more than capable of doing.
“It’s just little things that are killing us,” she said. “The performances are there, and the team has done a really good job of handling pressure.”
“I’m feeling really good about the season so far. There’s definitely room for improvement, but we’ve also been working really well as a team,” Haley said. “I’m looking forward to the rest of the meets and fin-ishing the season strong.”
World Peace: Smart can learn from fan incident(AP) — New York Knicks
forward Metta World Peace believes Marcus Smart can learn from the fallout of his three-game suspension for shoving a fan during a game at Texas Tech on Saturday night.
If anyone would know how the Oklahoma State All-American feels, it’s the player formerly known as Ron Art-est. He was suspended 73 reg-ular-season games and the NBA playoffs in 2004 after he infamously went into the stands and attacked a Detroit Pistons fan who he thought threw a beer on him.
On Sunday, before Smart’s suspension was announced by the Big 12, World Peace said Smart –projected to be a high NBA draft pick – might benefit from learning how to deal with obnoxious fans at age 19, before he becomes a pro and millions of dollars are on the line.
“Just in general, I heard the kid is pretty good and a poten-tial pro,” World Peace said. “So those types of challenges on the court when you’re playing and fans are rooting against you – that was a great lesson learned, so that hopefully when he does become a pro, he’ll be able to kind of with-stand the fans that are root-ing against him on the road.”
Late in the game at Lub-bock, Texas, Smart tumbled out of bounds behind the bas-ket after trying to block a shot. He was helped to his feet and then shoved Jeff Orr with two hands after the Red Raid-ers baited him. Teammates
quickly pulled Smart away as he pointed back and shouted in Orr’s direction.
Smart was issued a techni-cal foul and did not play the fi-nal seconds of the game.
He will miss games against Texas, Oklahoma and Bay-lor. He can return for a Feb. 22 home game against Texas Tech. Coach Travis Ford said Smart will be allowed to practice.
“These guys mean a lot to me, and for me not to be able to be out there with them – it hits me in my heart,” Smart said during his apology to the fan, his teammates and his family Sunday.
Orr, who goes to many Texas Tech games every year, has voluntarily agreed to
not attend any Red Raiders home or away games for the remainder of the season, ac-cording to Texas Tech’s state-ment regarding the incident.
“I would like to take this op-portunity to offer my sincere apologies to Marcus Smart, Oklahoma State, Tubby Smith and the Texas Tech Men’s Basketball program,” Orr said in the statement. “My actions last night were inappropri-ate and do not reflect myself or Texas Tech – a university I love dearly. I regret calling Mr. Smart a ‘piece of crap’ but I want to make it known that I did not use a racial slur of any kind.”
Considered one of the best all-around players in the country, Smart has showed
frustration more than once during an inconsistent season.
The sophomore guard got off to a fantastic start, leading to speculation that he could be the No. 1 pick in the NBA draft this year. He has strug-gled, however, in some recent games, including a four-point effort against West Virginia when he kicked a chair on the bench. That led to him apologizing to his teammates afterward.
World Peace said Smart needs to learn to control his energy.
“I think that emotion and that fire could be directed to-wards winning on the court instead of directed other ways,” he said.
The Knicks forward said given the chance, he would advise Smart to be aware of the big picture when making decisions.
“At 19 years old, when I came out of St. John’s, I was fresh out the ‘hood. I was fresh out of Queensbridge,” he said. “So my mentality was still struggle, defensive and things like that. I wasn’t really conscious. I’m 34 years old now. So he’s a young kid. I wish I would have listened when I was a kid to my elders or people who had my best interests at heart, and then I wish I would have been more conscious at that age also. Those are two things that, if you were to reach out to a kid like Marcus – a talented kid, future leader in the com-munity – you would tell him those things.”

WVU exceeding
expectations in 2013-14
It’s hard not to sit back and marvel at what the West Virginia women’s bas-ketball team has done this season. Head coach Mike Carey’s squad owns a 20-3 overall record, with a 9-2 record in conference play. This season has been such a success this far that even Carey is cracking an occa-sional smile in post-game pressers.
This women’s team is qui-etly putting together what I think is the most impressive season of any West Virginia team this year. The Moun-taineers have yet to string two consecutive losses.
The closest they got to that was after falling to Bay-lor in the Coliseum. WVU had to pull off an overtime win against Texas. They have also learned to ad-just to a different offense. With the return of senior center Asya Bussie, oppo-nents usually play her with at least two defenders. Bus-sie’s double-teams gives the Mountaineer shooters room to operate, and they have been effective.
The Mountaineers moved up to the No. 13 spot in the AP top 25 poll yester-day, which is their highest ranking since 2012. Carey coached that team to a No. 12 national ranking and an appearance in the NCAA Tournament where its sea-son ended against No. 2 Stanford. Even though Carey openly wishes his team was still flying under the national radar, the new ranking is a stamp for how good this team truly is.
Their record is not what impresses me the most. It’s what this team has become. Every player has the same message: “We’re all in this year” or “this is it for us,” and their play truly resem-bles that.
Players like Taylor Palmer and Brooke Hamp-ton have come from basic bench players and used their senior year to become pivotal roles in Carey’s of-fense. Both guards under-stand and embrace their role which is one of the rea-sons why this team is three spots out of the top ten. The dominating play of Bussie doesn’t hurt either. A year after ACL surgery, which made her miss her entire ju-nior year campaign, Bussie is second in the conference in blocks per game with 2.26 and eighth in total re-bounds with 7.7 boards per game.
The solid play of starting and bench players will have to continue if this team wants a Big 12 Champion-ship. The bottom half of the Mountaineers’ schedule may provide their toughest stretch of the season.
Oklahoma State will ride into Morgantown Feb. 19 with what should be the bat-tle for the second seed in the conference. If West Virginia passes that test, it will have the No. 7 team waiting.
With some added help from other Big 12 teams, the March 2 matchup with the Lady Bears could hold championship implica-tions. But Carey won’t let his players think that far ahead.
The stage is set for the women’s basketball team to not only grab the Univer-sity’s attention, but the state of West Virginia’s attention. If the Mountaineers can maneuver past these late season hurdles, before you know it, they could be bat-tling their way through the NCAA Tournament.

CYCLONE DEMOLITION
wythe woods/.the daily athenaeum Members of the West Virginia men’s basketball team celebrate with fans following Monday’s win over No. 11 Iowa State.
WVU’s strongest performance of season lifts Mountaineers past No. 11 Iowa State, 102-77By GreG Madiamultimedia editor
@GreGmadia
Junior Remi Dibo scored a career-high 20 points to lead West Virginia to a 102-77 upset victory over No. 11 Iowa State at the WVU Coliseum Monday. Dibo also hit a career-high six 3-point shots. Junior Ju-wan Staten and sopho-mores Eron Harris and Terry Henderson also scored in double figures for West Virginia.
WVU (15-10, 7-5 Big 12) jumped out to a first-half lead as large as 21 points and never looked back. Terry Henderson played catalyst hitting back-to-back 3-pointers af-ter throwing down a two-handed jam before the first media timeout.
“It felt good just to get going early,” Henderson said.
From there the Moun-taineers continued to push the issue against Iowa State (18-5, 6-5). At the 14:25 mark of first half, WVU be-gan a 12-0 run that lasted more than five minutes. During that run, Hender-son hit another 3-pointer while Staten scored on a couple of fancy layups.
Staten finished the game with 19 points, nine assists and seven rebounds. It marked the fifth game this season Staten registered at least nine assists.
At that point the Cy-clones never could get
back in the game. WVU continued to build upon its lead, as the Mountain-eers finished the first half shooting 53.8 percent from beyond the 3-point line. Iowa State was an abysmal 1-for-12 from 3-point land.
“Everybody thought we had a good feeling go-ing into this game,” Staten said. “We shot the ball well. I told Terry (Henderson) he was going to shoot the ball well today. I told Remi (Dibo) he would shoot the ball well. And I told Nate (Adrian) he would shoot the ball well today.”
WVU head coach Bob Huggins said he rolled out a matchup zone defense that proved valuable for the Mountaineers.
“We had to stop them on the threes,” Huggins said. “Defensively, I thought we played the best we’ve played all season.”
The WVU defense was terrific against Big 12 Con-ference leading scorer Melvin Ejim, who came in averaging more than 18 points per game. He had just six points in the loss and only registered one field goal after scoring a Big 12 single-game record 48 points Saturday against TCU.
“We tried to ice (Ejim), and it worked,” Huggins said. “We transitioned de-fenses well. We knew that Saturday he scored a lot of points so we just had to try to stop him.”
With 4:53 left to play,
Iowa State star guard De-Andre Kane missed two free throws, air-balling one of them. It was then when the Coliseum crowd was at its loudest. Kane finished the game with 14 points.
WVU took a 52-33 lead into the locker room.
“West Virginia had seven 3-pointers and eight layups at halftime. Ulti-mately, we gave them too much time and did not take anything away from them,” said Iowa State coach Fred Hoiberg.
Throughout the game, the entire West Virginia roster got involved. Nine WVU players registered at least one basket. Nathan Adrian scored nine points as the leading scorer off the bench. Kevin Noreen also added eight points.
WVU forced 14 turn-overs in the game and scored 19 points off Iowa State turnovers.
Though it was the first time WVU scored more than 100 points since 2007, the game didn’t end as smoothly as WVU would have liked.
With less than five min-utes left to play, Harris got called for a flagrant two foul and was ejected from the game. The Big 12 Con-ference does not have a rule that will suspend Har-ris for the ejection, so it is likely that he will play Sat-urday against Texas.

The West Virginia men’s basketball team never took their foot off the gas pedal against No. 11 Iowa State Monday evening in-side the Coliseum.
A f t e r b u i l d i n g a 19-point halftime lead, the Mountaineers used a complete team perfor-mance to rout the Cy-clones 102-77. West Vir-ginia (15-10, 7-5 Big 12) shot 53.8 percent from the field, including 59.1 percent from beyond the arc. The Mountaineers missed two free throws on the evening, shooting 90.5 percent from the charity stripe.
Iowa State (18-5, 6-5 Big 12) leading scorer and Big 12 Conference points leader Melvin Ejim was held to just six points on 1-of-9 shooting. In his last game against TCU, the Cyclones star scored 48 points.
Junior WVU forward Remi Dibo scored a ca-
reer-high 20 points, con-verting on 6-of-8 shots from 3-point territory. The real story Monday night, however, came from the entire Mountain-eer squad – they never let up against an Iowa State team that has won three games in a row prior to Monday’s game.
“I think we stuck to the game plan, executed on offense and we really controlled the game on of-fense. I think that’s what made the difference to-day,” Dibo said.
“It was a team effort. We knew we had to guard Ejim. We did it today. I think we can have games like this every night. We’ve been sticking to the game plan lately and we have to keep doing it.”
WVU played the way it knew it was capable of playing all season, even when its youth showed in the early part of the sea-son. The Mountaineers are picking things up, and the team is starting to grow as a collective unit.
Going into the game,
Iowa State was No. 1 in as-sists per game in the coun-try with 18.7. The Moun-taineers were able to get more assists, 18-13, and converted on Iowa State’s struggles from 3-point ter-ritory and from the foul line. On the evening, Iowa State shot just 17.4 per-cent from beyond the arc and 70 percent from the free throw line.
Four WVU players fin-ished in double figures. Iowa State head coach Fred Hoiberg praised the Mountaineers for never really giving the Cyclones the chance to chip away at the double-digit deficit.
“You have to give them credit,” he said. “West Vir-ginia played an excellent game by spacing and ex-posing us. We were not able to come out and challenge West Virginia’s shooters. (West Virginia) had seven 3-pointers and eight layups at halftime.
“We challenged our guys to come out and play well in the second half. The start of the period went fine, but then we be-
gan to make the same mis-takes. We allowed West Virginia to get too com-fortable. That was the worst effort we have had by far this season.”
Defensively, WVU had one of its best games in a long time. The Mountain-eers played with a ton of intensity on both ends, but ultimately the shots falling down paved the way for West Virginia head coach Bob Huggins’ team.
“We had pretty much the same shots against Kansas and didn’t make them. Today, we made them,” Huggins said. “When our guys make shots, we’re pretty good. We also defended bet-ter. It’s probably the best we’ve been defensively.”
Junior guard Juwan Staten, who had 19 points, nine assists and seven re-bounds in the win over Iowa State, said the team knows what they’re ca-pable of when they play a complete game.
“We know what type of team we have,” he said. “Our biggest thing is de-
fense. We’ve been better every game. If we can hold teams to shooting under 40 percent, we’ll have a great chance to win every game. We just have to play the way we play.”
Staten said Huggins emphasized not taking the foot off the gas pedal at halftime. While the Mountaineers enjoyed a comfortable lead, they didn’t let up.
“We were just trying to do what we did to get the lead,” he said. “We thought they would come out anxious, desperate, shooting a lot of shots, trying to get a lot of fouls. We needed to be calm on defense and stand by our principles.”
The Mountaineers, looking for another win over a ranked opponent with an outside chance at the NCAA Tournament, travel to Austin, Texas, to take on the No. 19 Texas Longhorns Saturday. The tip off is scheduled for 8 p.m.
