A silent st pump and strong pat on the shoulder come from coach of the BYU baseball team Vance Law, as one of his players brushes the dirt off his pants after stealing third base. This situation seems pretty generic for most coaches in college at the time, except the player receiving accolades this time is none other than Adam Law, coach Laws son.

Coach Law is in his 13th year coaching at BYU, and is deeply rooted in the traditions of BYU baseball. Throughout his life coach Law has been surrounded by baseball, and he has absolutely loved it. At an early age we got involved in athletics, Law said. My father [Vernon Law] was a great player. He was See LAW on Page 4

take it as a great experience to have a 14-year pro baseball player as my coach and one that I can ask about the game any time. I feel it a privilege to be here at BYU under his direction.

French ambassador speaks at BYU about shared values


By JOHN TERNIEDEN
The Ambassador of France to the United States, His Excellency Franois Delattre, visited BYU Wednesday and spoke to a crowded HBLL auditorium about the strength of U.S. France relations and the values the two countries share. The level of trust, the level of friendship and cooperation in our two countries has never been as high as it is today, Delattre said. Delattre attributes the high levels of trust and a strong relationship to the values and vision that both the United States and France share

Tis the season to get in shape


By DAVID L AKE
Seemingly out of nowhere, students began flocking to grassy patches and sunny ledges on campus. South of campus, herds of students can be found in exercise clothes out for their daily jog. Just weeks ago all of these areas were nearly deserted. The recent rise in temperature has given students an increased motivation to spend time outside. For many students, See EXERCISE on Page 4

Brothers open bistro together


By EE CHIEN CHUA
Juggling school and work isnt the easiest thing to do. But what if you had to juggle school and running your own restaurant? Dave Furse and Chuckie Furse, brothers and co-owners of Dave and Cranky Chuckies, on the second oor at 746 E. 820 North, Provo, opened the restaurant four months ago. While this is their rst restaurant, it is not their rst business venture. Weve been doing business together for awhile, and we have an online clothing store called Eight Cow Wife, Dave said.

veryone who has given up their dreams will trample yours and tell you you cant do it.
Restaurant owner
Dave said the name of the restaurant derives from Chuckies moods. Chuckie cooks when hes really angry or really happy, he said. Dave, a recreational management major from Massachusetts, said while they considered expanding to open a physical shop,

they decided on the restaurant instead. Chuckie has been cooking professionally for the past 11 years, Dave said. I love planning events and hosting things. Weve been talking about opening a restaurant since we were eleven. Chuckie said they werent serious then, but started toying with the idea about a year ago. Dave and Chuckie are both recreational management majors, so when they started getting serious, Dave geared his capstone course in commercial recreation toward developing the concept. Chuckie said he started cooking when he was 8. See BROTHERS on Page 4

Law
Family keeps baseball close
Continued from Page 1 always there for us growing up. We always played catch and he was able to shag fly balls and do batting practice with me. Coach laws father, Vernon, is no stranger to the game of baseball. Vernon played professionally for the Pittsburgh Pirates. In 1960 he pitched in the World Series for the Pirates and he won the Cy Young award. With all of Vernons accomplishments, he said his greatest is still his family. I would have to say the most

Adam Law plays baseball for BYU and plays for his father, Vance Law, who is BYUs head coach.
important thing to my father is his children and grandchildren, Vance Law said. He is always there for his family and has really created a legacy for us. After playing in the major

leagues, Vernon came to be an assistant coach at BYU. He coached 10 years with both Coach Glen Tuckett and Coach Gary Pullins. Tuckett, known as one of BYUs winningest coaches, was the head coach of BYU baseball from 1959-1976. Tuckett explained his years at BYU as his Camelot, or his 34-year love affair. Not only did Tuckett work alongside Vernon Law as his assistant coach, he also coached Vance when he played at BYU. He [Vance Law] started for me his freshman year, Tuckett said. He was a great player and could throw as good as any shortstop we ever had here at BYU. He was a superb young man and a great example to the rest of the team. Having his dad as assistant coach was wonderful, having a hall of famer coach alongside you is great.

Adam Law, a sophomore and second baseman, feels it an honor to be coached by his father. I take it as a great experience to have a 14-year pro baseball player as my coach and one that I can ask about the game any time, Adam said. I feel it a privilege to be here at BYU under his direction. Adam felt he always had to work harder and practice longer to prove he had what it took to be on the team. I always try to fit in as one of the guys, Adam said. I dont try to be known as the coachs kid or receive any special treatment. I take it as an opportunity to get better and push myself harder so people dont doubt the reason I am here. BYU assistant coach Wally Ritchie feels Vance is making great strides with the young

men on the team. He has a great passion for the game, Ritchie said. I think the thing you notice most is how much he cares for each of the players. He wants them to succeed whether on the field, in the classroom or in their personal life, and thats the big thing, he wants them to do their best. Ritchie feels the influence of the Law family on the team is tremendous. Obviously you have Vernon, who won a Cy Young award and coached here, Ritchie said. Vern still comes around and gets to know the kids a little bit. Obviously Vance played here and is now coaching, and he has played in the big leagues. The baseball side is outstanding, but the family side is outstanding too, getting a really good package for BYU baseball.

Brothers
Bistro opens for starving artists
Continued from Page 1 Our Mom wanted us both to learn how to cook, but Dave didnt stick with it, he said. Chuckie started cooking professionally when he was 15 at Friendlys, a restaurant back East. I cooked through high school, then came out to college, and took about a year off, he said. I got back into cooking because I hated desk work. Chuckie cooked at Communal, a local restaurant, after his hiatus, as the sous chef there. Communal was his first time cooking at a fine-dining restaurant, along with Utah Celebrations catering and the Hilton in Sandy. While this is something they both enjoy doing, the brothers have bigger plans. Cooking is just something I like to do, Chuckie said. I

would like to run an all inclusive resort on the East Coast. Aside from providing good food, Dave said the whole philosophy on having the place is to help starving artists. Its something we really support, whether theyre local performers or comedians, he said. Dave recalls Thanksgiving last year, where they invited anyone who wanted to go for a free turkey dinner. Chuckie and I were going to be away from our family so we decided to provide a free thanksgiving dinner for those who were kind of stranded, he said. It was funny because we had 12 Pakistani guys playing Rock Band till 1 a.m., and they all brought apple pies from Walmart. Emily Stewart, a freshman from Menifee, Calif., who plans to major in entrepreneurship, said the food is great, and Dave and Chuckie are personable. She said it seemed pretty risky opening a restaurant as students but thought it was cool. Its really cool that its

something they have wanted to do for a long time and have achieved it, she said. You can tell by their service that they really love what they do. Dave said word of mouth is the biggest way they get business. While 20-25 percent of their customers are students, the rest are established households. We have a decent web presence, Urbanspoon has been helping us, along with Facebook and Twitter, even LinkedIn, he said. Asked what advice they would give to students wanting to start their own business, they said to go for it. Do it while you dont have so much responsibility, Chuckie said. My brother and I had no debt, and had savings. If it goes under, we just walk away. Dave recommended doing research. Do your homework. Our reports from school helped us, he said. Everyone who has given up their dreams will trample yours and tell you you cant do it.

Exercise
BYU students get out more
Continued from Page 1 that means getting out and exercising. While there were indoor facilities available at BYU all winter, many outside exercise opportunities were limited by snow and cold weather. After spending two years on a mission in Jamaica, Conner Tracy became quite accustomed to heat. When winter arrived, Tracy said he couldnt stand being outside in the cold. Shortly after winter commenced, Tracys exercise habits ceased completely. While most people gain weight when they stop exercising, Tracy lost about 15 pounds.

Because I knew I wasnt exercising, I didnt want to eat a lot of food because I thought I would just get fat, Tracy said. I did the opposite and its just as negative. With the change in weather, Tracy is ready to get back into shape. He uses a workout of the day app on his smartphone to help him get a variety of workouts. Mybree Michaud, a former BYU student from Sunrise, Fla., has similar struggles when it comes to working out during the winter. While attending BYU, Michaud knew there were indoor options for exercise, but she didnt know where to start in using the machines in the weight room. With the change in weather, Michaud noted how everyone goes outside and starts playing sports. While she said she likes the way she feels while exercis-

ing, being outside and enjoying the weather is just as important to her. Im happy all year round, but I just love being in the sun, Michaud said. Sarah Haymore, a recreational management major from High Point, N.C., played for the BYU womens rugby team in the fall. During the season she maintained great physical conditioning but couldnt get motivated to keep it up through winter. Its not fun when its cold outside, she said. Haymore refers to the increased temperatures as a new beginning that comes every year. Haymore bought new running shoes and is ready to try to break out of her winter slump. The warmer weather makes me more determined to at least try, she said.

Ambassador
France provides ally to U.S.
Continued from Page 1 said. The question, and I believe one of the main challenges of our generation, is to know whether we will be able to shape, to organize a multipartner world in which every player appears comfortable and in which the principle of responsible partnership can prevail over those of competition and rivalry. In regard to foreign policy, France has been a strong ally to the United States, specifically regarding the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, establishing and supporting democratic movements in Arab nations and dealing with the increas-

ing danger of a nuclear armed Iran. As well as being a strong military and foreign support, France has become a booming economic partner for the United States. More than 4,000 French companies are investing in the U.S., which has aided in the creation of 650,000 jobs. Additionally, the United States has seen a 30 percent increase in the number of investments it has made in France. Delattre also commented on the history the two countries share, and the support they have rendered each other in the past. It is very important to always remember that the values we share are at the core of our partnership, Delattre said. It is important to remember that France and the U.S. owe each other their very existence as free nations.

Delattre spoke of the appreciation the people of France have toward the U.S. for their involvement and aid in restoring freedom in France during both World Wars and mentioned how the largest foreign memorial to honor victims of 9/11 took place at the heart of Paris, in front of the Eiffel Tower. In these testing times, the values that we share are more important than ever, Delattre said. We consider that they are more than ever our best tools, or best moral compass, to confront together the current challenges we face. Delattre was appointed the ambassador of France to the United States in February 2011, after previously serving as ambassador to Canada from 2008-2011.
