A ReRev current converter box is mounted next to a UNT student who works out on a elliptical machine � tted with the ReRev inverter. An elliptical machine in regular use at a gym using ReRev technology will generate one kilowatt-hour of electricity every two days.

BY ISAAC WRIGHTStaff Writer

The signs are subtle, but many UNT students have already contributed to the country’s largest human power plant by exercising in the Pohl Recreation Center.

There is rarely a moment of calm within the center. In some respects, it is like a massive machine with hundreds of moving parts operating at any given time.

Using technology from the Florida-based company ReRev, the gym now has the power to capture the energy students use to exercise by working out on 36 elliptical cross-training machines to produce 100 percent clean, renewable electricity. The equipment is modified to take kinetic energy and convert it to electricity.

“It’s putting our human energy to use and creating tangible, physical energy,” said Shea Phillips, a painting and

drawing and art education senior. “It makes me want to work out here rather than a gym that doesn’t have this.”

Last week, all 36 elliptical machines retrofitted with ReRev’s hardware became oper-ational, and a steady stream of electricity has been flowing into the center’s power grid.

To do so, ReRev modified the existing cross-training machines with hardware connected to a central computer.

ReRev has published material about how its machines func-tion.

The direct current, or energy exerted on the pedals, is trans-ferred out of the machine and into the ReRev “inverter,” a device that converts the energy into an alternate current so that it can be used in the center’s power grid.

The amount of power gener-ated by one machine is depen-dent on the level of resistance a person chooses for his or her

workout, said Laura Klein, senior associate director of recreational sports. On average, however, a typical 30-minute workout can produce 50-watt hours of electricity, an amount that can power a compact fluorescent light bulb for two-and-a-half hours or a laptop computer for one hour.

“The higher the resistance, the more energy is pulled,” Klein said.“When you consider that, in the evening, all 36 machines are going at one time. I saw it as high as 400 watts being produced at one time.”

Twenty-one other schools nationwide have installed the modified exercise equipment, including Texas State University and the University of Florida, though none have done so on the same scale as UNT, according to ReRev’s website.

The Division of Student Development funded the project, and, since the ReRev hardware is added to the existing exercise

equipment, the total cost stands at $19,450.

With the equipment operating at full capacity, a monitor will be put on display inside the center in the months to come. The display will give a clear picture of how much energy students are contributing through their workouts.

Though the total amount of electricity is small, Klein said, the project’s impact is one that will be seen over a matter of years. Though the power gener-ated by students using these machines is powering more than exercise equipment, the primary goal of the project was to educate, not power the entire center.

“We wanted to give people a different perspective on how energy is produced,” said Nicole Cocco, the outreach coordinator for the department of sustain-ability. “It takes a lot of energy down the line to power a light bulb.”

Walking down Mulberry Street, many people notice that the Art Building and HMS Art & Frame Shop sit right across the street from each other. Many students may wonder which came first, the building or the store.

The Art Building that stands today was built in 1969, said Jim Hornsby, owner of HMS. His store opened in 1973.

Hornsby’s British grandfa-ther was in the Royal Navy, which gave his mother the idea to name the store after the British ships she grew up with. Her Majesty’s Service — HMS Art & Frame — became the name of the store.

HMS originated at 107 Ave. A, which is now Jimmy Johns, but moved to its current loca-tion in 1976. Hornsby said after three years of renting that space, they bought 1212 W. Mulberry St., right across the street from the Art Building.

“Buying paper and other stuff is always convenient

when it’s r ight across the street,” said Jana Vinson, a photography senior.

R ic h a rd Ben av ide z , a drawing and painting and sculpture senior, has worked at HMS for six months. Benavidez

said UNT students make up about 90 to 95 percent of its clientele.

“During class a lot of people will run there across the street or on their breaks to get a certain pencil or tool they

need or a certain kind of paper,” said Paige Walton, an art history and drawing and painting junior.

Jim Hornsby is the son of Harvey and Betty Hornsby, the founders of the family-

owned store, and grew up in Denton.

“My mom and dad, they were old people when they sta r ted t h is place,” Ji m Hornsby said. “I was a little bitty kid, I’ve been here all my life. We’ve been on the block longer than anybody else.”

Holly Siggelow, a sculpture junior, said HMS has an inter-esting vibe.

“It ’s not as welcoming a s Vo e r t m a n’s b e c au s e Voertman’s is big,” she said. “HMS is a little small so you don’t think they’re going to have what you need, but they do. It’s kind of a false percep-tion.”

Art Alley, Hobby Lobby, Michael’s and Voertman’s are just a few of HMS’s local competitors.

“A lot of the art supplies there are really expensive,” Walton said. “I go there more because it’s across the street.

There are other places I could go to get better deals, defi-nitely.”

At Art Alley, a comparable art store on North Locust Street, students do not make up a large percentage of the clientele, said Randy Axtell, owner of Art Alley.

It’s a dif ferent stor y at Hobby Lobby on Loop 288, said Rebecca Shonk, customer service manager. Students or members of school art depart-ments from the surrounding area make up about 75 percent of the clientele.

St a c e y K e n ne y, s t or e ma nager at Michael’s i n Denton, said they have at least 50 students a day buying general art supplies.

“They wiped me out when school started a couple weeks ago,” Kenney said.

UNT will reach a historical milestone on Nov. 17, when former President George W. Bush becomes the first president to speak at the university.

Last year, Bush was set to speak but could not. This year, however, his staff contacted the university, curious if the invi-tation was still open. The reac-tion of the committee and UNT students was yes.

As a result, Bush will speak

in the Coliseum for a cost of $100,000, said Hope Garcia, vice president for student affairs.

“A lot of times, universities in general are more interested in the left side, or the Democratic, side of things,” Garcia said. “This will be the first large name from the other side. We’ve been missing that population for a good amount of time.”

The event will be part of the Distinguished Lecture Series, a program that runs every semester at UNT. Each year, a committee consisting of

student representatives, faculty and administrators chooses speakers after seeking input from the UNT community.

His appearance is being paid for through student services fees, so admission will be free for students, Garcia said. Ticket prices have yet to be determined, but UNT faculty, staff and alumni will receive a discount.

The topic of Bush’s speech is not yet known, however, and may tie in with the release of his memoirs, “Decision Points,” slated for release on Nov. 9, which will be for sale at the event.

“He actually doesn’t want a title for his speech,” Garcia said. “He wants it to be ‘Remarks by George Bush,’ so I guess he’s going to surprise us.”

The former president plans to meet with a small group of students after the presentation as well. Faculty members will be asked by the university to talk to the students about the opportu-nity and get them to sign up for a chance to speak with Bush on a personal level.

“I’m definitely going to be there,” said Mike Montgomery, an English junior. “Not only is he the first president to speak here, but he’s a high profile, contro-versial president.”

Kevin Sanders, the president of the Student Government Association, and a chairman of the Distinguished Lecture Series, said that Bush coming to speak is an important step in bringing attention to UNT and the opportunities at the university.

“Anytime you can have a person of that magnitude come out, you’re going to get a lot of media coverage, which will show the good side of North Texas,” Sanders said. “It shows exactly what we have to offer and that we’re not just a minor univer-sity. We’re a big-time school and we’re capable of bringing in big-time names.”

BY JESSICA DETIBERIISIntern

UNT students are sounding off on their feelings about smoking after a new report shows tobacco use is t he leading preventable cause of death, disease and disability in the U.S.

A report from the Centers for Disea se Cont rol a nd Prevention est imates that about 46 million adults are smoking cigarettes, which translates to a ratio of one in five. Of those polled, nearly 30 percent of college students are smokers, according to a StateUniversity.com article.

For many UNT students, smoking has become more than just a health issue. It is a financial strain as well.

“I smoke about a pack a day,” said Alana Flores, an undecided freshman. “It’s probably about $50 a week.”

Many students picked up t heir f irst cigarette years before t hey were of lega l age.

Flores sa id she sta r ted smoking when she was 12, a f ter watching her of-age brother light up.

“I was strictly anti-smoking …u nt i l I sta r ted,” PC A S freshman Andrew Hill said.

Hill has been smoking ciga-rettes for three years and usually goes to a hookah bar with friends once a week, he said.

Smok ing can start as a socia l interact ion a mong students and slowly transform into addiction. Many students say they use tobacco as an outlet for stress and eventu-ally get f lagged down by their dependence on nicotine. Once the use of tobacco has begun, it gets difficult to quit.

Flores said she has been able to stop smoking four t i mes si nce she bega n but soon e n o u g h f i n d s herself again with a cigarette in hand to c a l m her sel f down when she gets stressed.

A l t h ou g h s h e knows the ingre-d ie nt s u s e d t o p r o d u c e c i g a -r e t t e s i n c l u d e carbon monoxide, a m m o n i a a n d arsenic, she said she tries to forget about their nega-tive effects.

“It’s just some-thing you put in the back of your head,” Flores said.

Many students h ave t u r ne d to hookah as an alter-n at i v e to c ig a-rettes.

Radio, film and television freshman Brad Myers recently “quit cold turkey,” and has taken to joining his friends a t t h e h o o k a h bars.

Although hookah tobacco does not contain many of the chemicals found traditionally in cigarettes, social settings usually include long hours of being around hookah smoke and can eventually have similar effects on the body.

Mea nwhile, some non-smoking students are beginning to worry about how their class-mates’ habits affect them.

David Arnold, the health

Smokers sound off on costs, dangers

resources coordinator at the Student Health and Wellness Center, puts their minds at ease.

“Non-smokers of ten a re a nnoyed by t he per vasive smel l of smoke on t hei r clothing or in the air around common smoking locations,” Arnold said. “It is unlikely

any non-smokers are residing in areas so populated with secondhand smoke for periods of time long enough to create deleterious effects on their health.”

Quitt ing is not a n easy task.

Some st udents say t hat quitting techniques, such as nicotine gum, become more expensive than the cigarettes themselves.

Alum details time as UN aid workerBY SARA CORWIN & JOSH PHERIGONews Intern & Assigning Editor

U.N. representative and UNT alumnus Nicholas Rost shared his experiences as a humanitarian relief worker in Africa on Tuesday afternoon, speaking before a packed classroom of students and faculty.

In his hour-long presenta-tion, Rost, who’s on a two-week vacation from his home base in Nairobi, Kenya, informed the audience about the ways in which U.N. workers are bringing relief to refugees of the embattled regions of central and eastern Africa.

After graduating in 2005 with a master’s in political science, Rost said, he began his career as an intern for the United Nations Refugee Agency then took up a volun-teer position, working in the Central African Republic for a year. He now works for the Humanitarian Response Fund as a donor relations officer, a position he said deals mainly with directing donations to the humanitarian efforts in Somalia.

Rost said he wanted to give real-world context to some of the issues presented in UNT classrooms every day.

“A lot of students here study conflict research and peace studies,” Rost said. “I think often times when you read the academic texts it’s very abstract. When I was studying here, it was sometimes diffi-cult for me to bring all this abstract and try to stand on a concrete level of what that actually means.”

In providing that context, Rost detai led how relief workers operate within the violent region.

T he C ent r a l A f r ic a n Republic and Somalia cover an area the size of Texas with a

population of about 12 million people.

When the violence started in 2005, Rost said, many of the people in the areas affected by the conflict were so afraid of cars on the road they would often flee into the bush when they heard approaching vehi-cles.

“When we would drive to these areas, we would some-times find a bicycle or an empty cart on the road with stacks of food on it,” Rost said. “The people would hear the cars approaching and then just run into the forest.”

For many faculty members, Rost’s presentation was an example of the way in which outside lecturers can bring tangible experience to topics discussed in the classroom. Michael Grieg of the polit-ical science faculty said guest speakers like Rost can help students understand what opportunities await them after graduation.

“It is important because it helps students see the types of things that they can do after graduation, and the kinds of possibilities that are available to them as political science graduates,” Grieg said.

Haley Rymel, a public rela-tions sophomore and peace studies minor, agreed on the significance of having guest speakers talk to students. She said she hopes to someday work for a humanitarian aid organization and that she enjoyed hearing Rost’s expe-riences.

“You’re not going to take as much away from a textbook as a speaker who’s actually been in the field helping people and experiencing the things we’re just learning about,” Rymel said.

Rost encouraged students interested in the field to pursue internship and volun-teer opportunities.

For those who enjoy selling handmade goods and like to perform, the city of Pilot Point is hosting the first annual Bonnie & Clyde Days festival.

Pilot Point, located 20 minutes south of Denton, will hold audi-tions for the re-enactment of the movie “Bonnie and Clyde” at 6:30 p.m. today at the Pilot Point Opera House. The festival will take place from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Oct. 9 in the city’s downtown square and is free and open to the public.

“We feel that Pilot Point is a jewel that’s been passed by for many years and we’re hoping to draw people out so they can experience all that the city has to offer,” said Elisa Rumbo, coordi-nator of the re-enactment.

Bonnie and Clyde were known outlaws of Texas in the 1930s who robbed businesses like the Smith Oil Company in Dallas, according to History Buff website.

When director Warren Beatty decided to film the blockbuster hit “Bonnie & Clyde” in 1966, he chose Pilot Point so he could make the tie back to where it all began, said Bruce Thomas, main street director of Pilot Point.

“We decided that we didn’t want to glorify Bonnie and Clyde the criminals, but really re-enact when Hollywood came to town since it was something that brought the community closer,” Thomas said.

The casting call requires no previous acting experience.

Eight main characters and 15

to 20 extras will be needed to complete the cast for the bank re-enactment scene, Rumbo said.

A meeting and two rehearsals will be mandatory for those selected and everyone must provide their own costumes, according to the casting call handout.

North Texas Television will film the re-enactment so it can produce a 12-minute documen-tary, said Trey Friedrichs, a radio, television and film senior and content and marketing director of NTTV.

“They’re going to be able to step right back into the ‘30s and ‘60s,” Friedrichs said. “It’s hard to move forward a lot of times until you know where you’ve come from.”

The Bonnie & Clyde Days festival was created when Thomas saw a commercial for the economic recession.

“When you talk about the Great Depression, there were massive amounts of people who were worse off than we are now, but they pulled together and made due with what they had,” he said.

A parade of antique cars and tractors will kick off the festival at 9 a.m. with the rest of the day devoted to activities like cotton picking and look-a-like contests.

Free booths will also be avail-able for those who want to sell their handmade crafts or food, Rumbo said.

While Bonnie and Clyde were known for being famous fugitives,

Among the 36,000 students who go to UNT, Ta n i ka Simmons easily blends into the mass of people who walk across campus on an average weekday.

But t here’s somet h i ng unique that sets her apart, something on the ring finger of her left hand. She wears a pink promise ring as a reminder of the promise she made to walk in the Susan G. Komen 3-Day Race for the Cure.

Simmons, a social work graduate student, said she made her promise when a friend at church asked her to join a group participating in the race.

“It was an immediate ‘Yes, I want to do that, I want to chal-lenge myself a n d h e l p others at the sa me t ime,’” S i m m o n s said.

T h e r a c e , s c h e d u l e d to take place Nov. 5 -7 i n t h e D a l l a s -F o r t Wo r t h area, requires participants to walk a total of 60 miles over the course of three days, about 20 miles per day.

Simmons, along with those like her, trains on a weekly basis to prepare for the hike they have in November.

“Monday’s eight miles, 15 minutes of moderate walking Tuesday, t h ree m i les on Wednesday, kind of a break on Thursday and then five miles on Friday,” Simmons said.

But the physical training ma kes up just a pa r t of Simmons’ responsibi l it ies for joining the Komen event. Simmons has to pay for her place too, which is worth $2,300.

“I’m a col lege student, so $2,300 is like a semester of classes to me, but I was sure if I could get anything I could come up with the entire amount,” Simmons said.

So Simmons reached out to local businesses to f ind sponsors, going first to Ramen Republic.

Charlie Foster, founder and part owner of the restaurant,

said since it had opened in June this year, he had been “besieged” by people asking for donations and was hesi-tant to make a donation to Simmons.

“Initially, I turned her down, but you know what she was pleasant, she was polite, she was confident…and I said ‘What the heck, how can I not sponsor this lady,’” Foster said.

Foster said he encounters solicitations for a variety of reasons on a daily basis, but Simmons really stood out in his mind.

“She made a point to come out here, meet me at the restaurant, she looked around, she goes ‘oh this looks pretty neat’… and that kind of rein-forced my feeling for [her] sincerity,” Foster said.

Mary Frances Hoover, exec-utive director of the Susan G. Komen North Texas affil-iate, said she’s impressed

with Simmons’ dedication in balancing her l i fe bet ween t he t r a i n i ng a n d r a i s i n g t h e n e c e s -sary money to participate.

“We’re really proud of Tanika and the work she’s been doing and it takes an amazing person

to balance all of those things,” Hoover said.

Simmons is still working to gather up all the donations she needs and those that have been pledged on her behalf so far, but counts on walking in November.

“I plan to have $2,300 by Nov. 5,” Simmons said.

When the race is finished, 75 percent of the net proceeds will fund local Texas nonprofits and organizations that offer direct services to breast cancer patients.

“Last year, we were able to fund eight organizations a total of $800,000,” Hoover said.

Simmons is just one student out of thousands at UNT, but she’s part of a group of people that Hoover realizes she and her affiliate don’t want to miss out on.

“One of the things we have in the works that we’ll be able to do next October is have a race for the cure out in Denton,” Hoover said. “We love our college and we would love to get them more involved.”

Acai berry proves to be ordinary

The South American acai berry is available in the U.S. in its raw form and as a juice, pill and powder. The dietary supplement is claimed to boost metabolism, help with weight loss and provide disease � ghting antioxidants, though these claims have not been scienti� cally proven.

ASHLEY-CRYSTAL FIRSTLEYIntern

The acai berry trend has caught the attention of weight-loss inspired individuals, including many UNT students.

This dark purple superan-tioxidant fruit, (pronounced ah-sigh-ee) resembles a grape and is marketed as a weight loss option. The contents of the berry, however, prove to be no different than other berries and fruits.

“I personally am not familiar with any research studies that have shown that it’s helpful for weight loss at all,” said dietitian Stasha Kucel of New Day Nutrition Services in Lewisville.

“I found that they view acai berry just to be just as potent and just as beneficial as blueber-ries and raspberries,” she said. “I think most dietitians just view it as a very excellent source of anti-oxidants and polyphenols and not like a miracle berry.”

The acai berry grows only in the Amazon rain forest.

According to the American Dietetic Association’s website, which is only available to members, Kucel said, the ADA lists the components of the berry as having 2.4 percent protein, 5.9 percent lipids, vitamins A, C, E, calcium, phosphorus and iron.

“I don’t even think it would have any special benefits when it comes to colon cleansing, person-ally,” Kucel said. “Because your liver is what cleanses the body, so people’s liver is usually perfectly efficient in keeping their body from becoming toxic. So I don’t believe that the acai berry’s going to operate any miracu-lous benefit.”

Science has yet to prove acai capable of curing any type of illness or disease, according to the ADA website.

Despite acai being claimed as the healthiest fruit on the planet, Kucel said students are not going to get any healthier than if they were to eat other berries.

“I know a lot of companies that were putting some other stimulants that they weren’t disclosing,” said David Logan, a supplement buyer for Cupboard Natural Foods store in Denton. “So people would take it, they wouldn’t be hungry... but the

actually berry doesn’t do that. It’s just the other stuff they’re spiking it with.”

Companies have claimed the acai berry helps boost energy levels, improves vision, natu-rally fights cancer, suppresses food cravings and enhances sexual performance and heart function.

The acai berry became popular in North America after being promoted by Dr. Perricone as the super food for age-defying beauty on the Oprah Winfrey show in 2005, Kucel said.

Yet in the end, all you need

to do to become a healthy individual is continue eating a variety of fruits and not rely on the acai berry itself to perform claims that have not been proven, she said.

“Everything that I hear from other dietitians is that we don’t really regard it as anything special,” Kucel said. “We just regard it as a good source of antioxidants just like berries that are available to us. So I think… you don’t have to have the acai berry. I think you’d be just as healthy if you just bought blueberries and strawberries and raspberries and what’s

available to us in the U.S.”Many students have ques-

tioned the validity of the acai berry’s effect on weight loss.

Geography senior Nathan Pappenhagen said he grew up with his parents buying healthy foods and thinks without diet and exercise, there’s no way you can lose weight.

“I don’t think that’s a smart idea,” Pappenhagen said. “I don’t think any type of supple-ment is going to help if you’re not doing those two things. The results are dependent on how much you diet and how much you exercise.”

With a 5-2-1 record and domi-nant wins over a handful of oppo-nents, the UNT women’s soccer team has raised a lot of eyebrows and drawn much positive atten-tion since the season’s start.

A freshman scoring two hat tricks in her first three games, a senior goalkeeper who can shut anyone down and a head coach who has more wins than my amount of fantasy football leagues has led many to feel hopeful about the Mean Green’s chances this year.

That being said, the year has only just begun. So far so good, but the team’s real test will come when UNT hosts SMU on Friday and ends its season with 11 straight conference games, all of which have added importance.

The Mustangs defeated the Mean Green in Dallas last season and will prove to be a tough test on Friday. Defeating this team would not only avenge the loss but could be the team’s first signa-ture win.

UNT played well against top-

notch competition Texas Tech and New Mexico, but failed to win either of those games. If this team thinks it’s good enough to edge out Arkansas State and Denver for the Sun Belt, it will need to show it can beat a quality oppo-nent like SMU.

A win over the Mustangs would come at the perfect time, as UNT is two weeks away from the most crucial part of the season-con-ference play and could use the momentum of a big win when Sun Belt play begins. Not only are these games more important, but also the quality of competition goes up. There’s a reason teams like Prairie View A&M and Lamar University aren’t in the Sun Belt

and while Texas Tech was the best team on UNT’s schedule, the team will be consistently challenged every weekend from now on.

Conference powerhouse Denver has won five in a row, Arkansas State has four shutouts this year and always-aggressive Louisiana Lafayette is averaging more than 13 fouls a game. When UNT hosts the Ragin’ Cajuns on Oct. 3, I may lock the door in the press box just to play it safe.

It may sound overly simplified, but all UNT has to do against these teams is continue playing at the same level that it has in its first eight games. After all, UNT leads the Sun Belt in shots, corners, goals, goals allowed, goals against average and points.

If UNT can keep these numbers up, anything is possible, but the early season success we’ve seen means nothing if the Mean Green can’t keep it up when it matters.

Not unlike the movies, a team’s success isn’t defined by a strong beginning, but by a compelling finish. The jury is still out on whether the 2010 soccer season will inspire like “Inception” or tumble like the film “Takers.”

Sports with Sean: Season’s stingiest stretch starts soon

BY BEN BABYSenior Staff Writer

After watching the f irst two games of the season, my hopes for t he U N T football team have slowly plummeted, with a landing nowhere in sight.

Last Saturday night, 23,743 fans w itnessed the Mean Green squa nder a not her late-game lead, something that was perfected to an art form last season.

I wouldn’t compare it to the work of Francisco de Goya - it looks more like a kindergarten student who had fun with glue and maca-roni.

I am sure it was not how UNT head coach Todd Dodge had expected to start the season, especia l ly w ith it hinging on his return for next season. What cost the Mean Green its second loss were simple mistakes.

Tu r n o v e r s , d r o p p e d passes and missed tackles all contributed to Rice’s late comeback victory.

A port ion of the blame fa l ls on of fensive coordi-nator Mike Canales, w ith quest ionable play ca l l ing at times during the game. One specific instance is a late third-and-two, in which the Mean Green went into its Wildcat formation.

For having to put up with at rocious specia l tea m s play and turnovers deep in its own offensive end, the

defensive did a good job of holding t he Rice of fense at bay. That was until Rice switched its starting quar-terback and running back, both of whom had their way in the second half.

This was all prior to losing redshirt senior Nathan Tune, who took one hit too many. Tune left Fouts Field on a stretcher, suffering a dislo-cated hip.

W hile Tune may be out for a significant amount of time, his departure means that true sophomore Derek Thompson will be asked to step up and lead the Mean Green through a significant season.

Thompson w i l l in her it a team that is expected to win at least six games this season, which would make UN T el ig ible for a bowl game.

Ta l k i ng to t he sopho-more quarterback following T u e s d a y ’ s p r a c t i c e , Thompson ca rr ied about himself a sense of swagger, a sense of confidence that any

player, coach or fan would like to see at the quarter-back position.

Regardless, this team has stunk in its first two games, with the stench getting worse as the season has moved on. In a must-win game, the Mean Green managed to lose a game it needed in its quest to w in at least half of its games.

For UNT to accomplish its goal, it would need to win six of its next 10 games, three of which will come against big opponents like Middle Tennessee, Arkansas State and Kansas State.

Other than the obligatory win over Western Kentucky, the Mean Green will have to claw its way through its opponents to not have a losing season.

S o p h o m o r e s a f e t y DaWaylon Cook w i l l a lso be out for the remainder of the season after suffering an ACL injury on Saturday against Rice.

This will further deplete a secondary that was weak coming into the season, a secondary that lost a junior defensive back indefinitely the previous week against Clemson.

It goes w it hout say ing that this Saturday’s game against Army in West Point, N.Y. will serve as a huge test for the Mean Green; a game it desperately needs to win to maintain its fantasy of making the postseason; a fantasy that many would like to see become a reality.

Junior Kelsey Kipp aims for the 18th green at the Worldlink North Texas Fall Classic. The women’s golf team set new UNT school records on its way to winning the tournament.

BY BOBBY LEWISStaff Writer

The UNT women’s golf team got out to a great start in the Worldlink North Texas Fall Classic on Monday, breaking two school records en route to being alone in second place after two rounds.

Things would only get better from there.

The team turned a one-shot deficit into a 13-shot victory over the rest of the 12-team field, shooting a 4-under par 284 in the final round. It also broke the school’s 54-hole record, posting a score of 872.

With this victory in the first tournament of the season, the team has already matched the number of victories it had all of last season.

“I really couldn’t be prouder of the girls,” head coach Jeff Mitchell said. “They’ve worked really hard over the last couple of weeks. It’s just a great way to start the season.”

The Mean Green shot a school record of 291 in the second round and a 36-hole school record of 588.

The team also had all five golfers inside the top 25 after the first day, all of whom finished the tournament in the top 20.

After day one of the tourna-ment, Mitchell stressed that he did not want the team to have any expectations - instead the team should just play golf and every-thing would work itself out.

That message certainly came through in the team’s play as it pulled away from the rest of the competition in convincing fashion.

“They just went out and they were enjoying what they were doing,” Mitchell said. “They stayed really calm all day and just kind of focused on what they wanted to accomplish and it really worked out well.”

Junior Kelsey Kipp led the way for the Mean Green, finishing second overall in the tourna-ment.

“I’m just really proud of my team,” Kipp said. “We have two new freshmen and for them to just come in and step up and do what they did - it’s awesome.”

Those two freshmen were Chaslyn Chrismer and Taylor

Kilponen, who finished the tour-nament ninth and tied for 20th, respectively.

Senior Chandra Alexander and junior Addison Long tied for sixth in the Worldlink. Long, who had been feeling sick over the past few days, shot a 68 in the final round, the lowest round for anyone in the tournament.

Before the tournament, Mitchell and a few of the golfers pointed out putting as the biggest area the team needed to improve upon. The putting in the Worldlink seemed to be a step in the right direction.

“At some points in the tourna-ment, it was really good,” Mitchell said. “I don’t know that we’re putting a lot better or chipping a lot better, but I think the team has seen just how much of an impact that makes on the scores.”

The tournament victory has Kipp seeing big things in the team’s future.

“I think it’s huge, but I also think it’s just the beginning,” Kipp said. “We can always do better and I expect us to win as many as we can down the road. I think we’re capable.”

It was the second week of school and many students were sti l l recovering from t he ha ngover t hat comes from a long summer vaca-tion. Meanwhile, the world around us was entangled in a religion-saturated debate in the days preceding the ninth anniversary of the Sept. 11 tragedy.

Nearly all of the American media from Fox News to NPR was swamped by stories of Terr y Jones, a prev iously unknown pastor from Florida w ith an 18t h centur y-style mustache. He planned to burn copies of the Quran because of the ground zero mosque controversy.

The issue was so impor-ta nt t hat even President Oba ma had to com ment on it, decrying the pastor’s actions as a “stunt” that would

endanger the lives of troops in Afghanistan. The biggest problem w ith the debacle was not that it exposed the nation’s supposed high level of religious intolerance, but that this was an issue to begin with.

The solution to the issue cou ld have been for t he networks to ignore a f lakey nut case in Florida who used t hemes a nd quotes f rom “Braveheart” to preach anti-Islamic hate. When the most important thing to a media corporation becomes busi-ness and not informing citi-zens, the situation becomes dire.

Nine years and one week ago today, the biggest story in the news was of a now-f o r g o t t e n D e m o c r a t i c congressman Gary Condit. The stor y was a stretched

out and creepier version of t he Clinton-Lew insk y sex “scandal.” Even when there were sufficient clues of an em i nent ter ror ist at tack, the networks ignored them, favoring salacious entertain-ment. Overnight, the big story changed from a suspenseful mystery to an action packed thriller; yet within two years, the country would be involved in two wars.

So here we are today, with high doses of religion mixed with national and even local politics. After all, the issue of Park 51 is a matter of the zoning ordinances of t he city of New York and is its to decide.

There is no separation of church and state. Jeff Cohen, a progressive media activist, once wrote: “Media are the nervous system of our body

politic, if the nervous system is m isf i r ing, our democ-racy is jeopardized.” Well, it seems now that the media is suffering from a horrible case of schizophrenia, and I now wonder where the democ-racy is.

Campus ChatWhat do you think about Reggie

Bush giving back his Heisman trophy?

“Regardless of the circumstances, I think

that he’s earned it and it’s rightfully his, it’s based

on what he’s done for, of course, USC.”

“I think Reggie Bush should keep the Heisman trophy because he earned it… Although what he did

was kind of trifling, he earned it.”

“He should have given it back. He’s taking money, it’s

against NCAA rules.”

Nod: AOL Spinner names UNT second best in musical alumni

UNT’s musical legacy precedes itself — such famous talents as Don Henley, Roy Orbison, Norah Jones, Meat Loaf, Lou Marini of the Blues Brothers and Sister Hazel drummer Mark Trojanowski are UNT alumni. This is only more proof of the excellence of the Mean Green music tradition.

AOL’s Spinner website, a music-based blog that compiles lists, reviews and music-related news, recently ranked UNT the second-best “College of Rock.”

And even further demonstrating the strength of our program is the fact that the iconic Eagles songwriter, singer and guitarist actually flunked out of the UNT music program.

UNT’s placement on such a relevant mainstream musical blog is astounding, and gives the university positive publicity.

Spinner placed UNT ahead of legendary music colleges such as the University of London, Berkeley, Harvard and Cornell. These colleges are responsible for famous rock musicians such as Mick Jagger, Rivers Cuomo of Weezer, Coldplay and many others.

The Editorial Board is ecstatic to see UNT ranked as the second-best “College of Rock” on the basis of the alumni on such a well-known publication.

Shake: Unhappy football fans ruining the funDespite the best efforts in the past from alumni

and faculty, UNT is not a school known for its school spirit. Saturday’s game against Rice was something to be proud of. For the first time in years, our growing school spirit shined at Fouts Field.

The football game was loud, rowdy and intense. The stadium was filled nicely with about 23,000 fans who yelled and cheered their team on the entire game. Yet some people felt our student section went a bit over the top.

The Editorial Board believes the idea that the Mean Green student section was too rowdy is nonsense.

For once, fans and students showed off Mean Green spirit proudly before the game in the parking lots with a tailgate that rivaled many professional football teams and many Top- 25 ranked schools.

The school atmosphere was electric, filled with spirit and pride throughout Saturday. Despite the unfortunate loss and season-ending injury to the starting quarter-back, Saturday’s slugfest felt like a pure grudge match, going down to the wire.

Saturday’s game was a fantastic show of spirit, and is something to be proud of for all.

Dear Kayla Morain,

I feel that any Division I footba l l game you attend will have an uncontrollable amount of fans and heck-lers. Especially considering the fact that there was a tent in the tailgating area for the sole purpose of providing free beer to those of age, expecting a mild-mannered and civilized crowd was quite a request. If this were Olive Garden or Chuck E. Cheese, then I would agree fully that our fans were out of line, but it’s not.

This is NCAA Division I foot-ball, and this is Texas. This is the home of arguably the most popular gridiron football fran-chise in the world, with some of the most irrational and beautifully raucous fans on the planet. No matter the purpose of the request, they will not tone it dow n for anyone. If you take out the people who curse, yell, and cause unrest among others, you

take out a sizable portion of our fans. A friend I was with, bless his heart, did his share of hooting and hol lering. He screamed phrases that I myself would not have recited so colorfully. Though I was a bit embarrassed, and had to say things like “Cool it man, there’s parents here,” I knew that it was all in vain. People at football games are going to get loud, they’re going to get annoying, and that is what drives the team to play harder.

I personally believe that w it hout out s p ok en a nd profane fans, the game would

not have been nearly as close as it was. The event itself calls for a certain degree of intensity among the spec-tators simply because it is so heav i ly contact-based, nearly resembling gueril la wa r fa re. It is fast-paced, angr y, loud, and the team pays for it if energy drops. Since we ca nnot get t he satisfaction that we desire on t he f ield, we have to try to make up for it in the stands. Though very impo-lite, this does include belit-tling the visiting team in a juvenile manner because, well, we don’t like them very

much. When we are behind in the score, the emotions com i ng out of ever yone involved are not usually very pleasant or calm. As for being labeled a “typical rude North Texas fan,” consider that every single college, university, and even high school has these fans —UNT is not unique. I’d even label us as pretty tame compared to Rice’s previous opponent, U T— I shou ld know, I grew up 15 minutes aw ay f rom t he c a mpu s. A ll that being said, the author of the column whose poi nt I a m d isput i ng is completely entit led to her opinion, and I fully support her right to voice it. I simply disagree, and wish to voice mine. To conclude, I w i l l quote her sendoff, if I may: “Be proud and go Mean Green!”

Sudoku requires no calculation or arithmetic skills. It is essentially a game of placing numbers in squares, using very simple rules of logic and deduction.

The objective of the game is to fi ll all the blank squares in a game with the correct numbers. There are three very simple constraints to follow. In a 9 by 9 square Sudoku game: • Every row of 9 numbers must in-clude all digits 1 through 9 in any order • Every column of 9 numbers must include all digits 1 through 9 in any order • Every 3 by 3 subsection of the 9 by 9 square must include all digits 1 through 9
