Pedicabs step into Oxford transportation market BY HAYLEY RAMAGOS hmramago@go.olemiss.edu
Oxford’s first pedicab service, Rebel Pedal, created by an Ole Miss student, is on its way to establishment this fall. Pedicabs, bike-driven carriages, have never been seen in Oxford and require city ordinances to be written and approved to accommodate the unique traffic and business requirements. Owner Ryan Seidl and his lawyers plan to present the proposed ordinances to the Board of Aldermen Oct. 21 and begin business two to three weeks after its approval. “I’ve spoken with city officials,” Seidl said. “They thought it was a great thing and think it will go well with Oxford’s new go-green programs.” The cabs hold three passengers at a time. They can travel anywhere in Oxford, as long as their routes do not go past Highway 6 or Kroger on University Avenue. Seidl plans to have two pedi-
cabs active by November and add two more cabs by the spring semester. Pedicab operator training has already taken place in Illinois for Seidl and his first drivers. Future pedicab operator, Matthias Everette, completed training in August. He said he is ready to see the response Rebel Pedal will draw from the people of Oxford. “I think they will respond well, because it is such a different thing for Oxford,” Everette said. “I hope people will see it around and become interested in it because it is so new to the city.” Seidl said he got the idea while visiting family at a college in South Carolina. He said that while visiting, they took pedicabs to the downtown restaurants and bars. Once he became a student at Ole Miss, he saw an opportunity for the same mode of transportation here.

The Ole Miss International Justice Mission hosted visitors yesterday from Alta Gracia Apparel to discuss the impact of ethical business models in practice. Alta Gracia, based in the Dominican Republic, ensures its workers have a democratic voice and a living wage that is three times the amount of the Free Trade Zone minimum, according to the organization. Two garment workers who specialize in college apparel, Yenny Perez and Martiza Vargas, were present to discuss the history of Alta Gracia and ways Ole Miss students can also create change.

The company pays what it calls a “family wage” to its workers in order to better their lives by paying enough money to attain education, better health care and provisions for their families. “As consumers it’s easy to buy something without thinking about how it was produced, but having Alta Gracia here reminds us that what we purchase can have a big impact on other people’s lives,” said Gabrielle Barrientos, president of Ole Miss’ chapter. “It’s important to seek out goods that are ethically produced.” The Ole Miss International Justice Mission is a student-

COLUMN
Sunday’s Tea Party rally ignores the facts BY ADAM BLACKWELL ablackwe@go.olemiss.edu
PATRICIA THOMPSON director and faculty adviser
As I read through the news Sunday, I found a particularly interesting story. On Sunday, a group of conservatives held a rally at the World War II and Lincoln Memorials to protest the government shutdown and President Obama’s agenda. The protest was similar to tea party rallies held in earlier years, with headliners such as Sen. Ted Cruz and former vice presidential candidate and Gov. Sarah Palin. Both of these iconic tea party leaders spoke, as well as a number of others. Let me preface the rest of my column by saying that I fully support the American right to freedom of speech and the nonviolent protest movement. I believe that Americans should all feel free to protest whatever they would like openly and loudly. However, I believe that Americans should be logical and thoughtful in their opinions and protests, and this goes tenfold for our elected officials and high-profile public figures. We should not be blinded by political rhetoric and irrelevant information. With that being

said, I wish to respond to the tea party’s latest rally in our nation’s capital. A few actions and speeches warrant a response. First off, Larry Klayman, a representative of the advocacy group Freedom Watch, asserted that President Obama was of the Islamic faith by advising the crowd to call upon the president to “put the Quran down.” Let’s be clear here: President Barack Obama has stated on multiple occasions that he is not of the Islamic faith. Furthermore, is there really anything inherently wrong with being a follower of Islam? Not in this country. We are not a Christian country: We are a country where all are free to practice any religion. So, even if the president was Muslim, it should not be a problem. The president’s religion certainly doesn’t have anything to do with the government shutdown. In fact, I look forward to the day when our country can move past its religious discrimination and elect a Muslim president. The tea party demonizes the president and his policies, making it appear that he is out to destroy America and its people. Once again, we see the tea party dramatizing events and creating

opinions without fact. I really don’t believe President Obama, Nancy Pelosi or Harry Reid is out to ruin the American people. I also don’t believe John Boehner or Mitch McConnell is out to ruin America either. All of our public leaders have a great love for country and aspire to see America on top. They just have different ideas on how those goals should be achieved. This is simply reality, but the tea party doesn’t seem to understand what reality is. Lastly, as part of the rally, members protested the government’s shutdown of national parks and monuments, laying all the blame on the Obama administration. The closing of parks and monuments is part of the government shutdown, which should be blamed on all members of Congress. Congress is charged with creating and passing a government budget to prevent a shutdown. The only concession it has to give is to make it moderate enough for the president to sign. Here, surprisingly enough, I’m not trying to lay blame on the Republican Party for shutting down the government. I lay blame on radical members of the Republican Party — the

tea party. The tea party uses immense political rhetoric with little to no factual basis. It chooses to politicize events and turn them into public relations moments, instead of working across the aisle to solve problems. Our political leaders should be held at a higher standard, and they should certainly use fact-based evidence and relevant information. Yes, the Democratic Party has radicals and leaders who sometimes fudge the facts. I don’t appreciate those officials either. However, in my opinion, the tea party faction is a much louder, stronger voice than any radical movement in the Democratic Party. Radicalism, on either side, is not favorable and not realistic. Members of Congress, on both sides of the aisle, should moderate themselves and sit down to create a federal budget. The American people are tired. We are tired of a government shutdown and of the petty arguing. And, most importantly, we’re tired of the radicalism and lack of facts.

Meek School to host sustainability panel
tjporter@go.olemiss.edu
The Meek School of Journalism and New Media will be hosting the panel “Sustainability in Business and Everyday Life” from 6-7 p.m. today at the Overby Center. It is free and open to the public. The panel will feature leading corporate sustainability supporters experienced in the principle and practice of sustainability who will explain how concern for the natural environment can be good for business. They will share how their companies view sustainability, what sustainability initiatives are underway and how employees and other stakeholders are carrying out these initiatives. Becky West, the person responsible for bringing the event to Ole Miss, said the purpose of the panel is to raise awareness about sustainability and how it works in practice. “We want to show what
all of these different corporations, like International Paper and FedEx and even the Office of Sustainability at The University of Mississippi, what they’re doing so people will realize how important sustainability is and how it impacts their everyday lives,” West said. Moderated by Meek School Assistant Dean Charles Mitchell, the panel will feature Kyle Margolis, Sustainability Communications, International Paper; Karen Ellis, managing director, Global Environment Management, FedEx; Max Shilstone, director, Business Development, Clean Line Energy; and Ian Banner, director of the Office of Sustainability at the university. West cited Clean Line Energy as a great sustainable company. Clean Line
is based in the Midwest and takes wind energy using wind turbines and sends it 800 miles to both the East and West coasts to be used as convertible energy. According to West, this energy is, on average, five to six cents less than the standard energy and is the first interstate project of its kind. Although serious strides have been made to find sustainable energy, West said we as humans and members of the Ole Miss community still have work to do. “There’s much more that needs to be done,” she said. “Ole Miss is taking strides and has taken a leading role in this area, but they will also be the first to admit the school still has a long way to go.”

led organization that works to help others internationally through education and fundraising. At the national level, the mission is a human rights agency that fights for the liberties of victims of human trafficking, slavery and other types of oppression. “IJM has grown to be more important to me with time, because it keeps me from staying comfortable while others in the world are suffering,” said Buki Alabi, the organization’s secretary. “Women are being sold and men are being forced to work in factories with no rights. It’s a grave injustice. It’s our duty, as people who benefit from their hard work, to help.” The event provided an opportunity for Ole Miss students to find out more about the production of goods and how consumer actions affect the world. “If students would be willing to give it a chance, making a change doesn’t have to be an overwhelming thing,” Alabi said. “We can just take steps to better our world and the people in it.”

Kat Andrews, sophomore forensic chemistry major, said she would be interested in the service. “I would take a pedicab from the Square — it’s cute,” Andrews said. “Especially if it is cheaper than a regular taxi.” While a definite fare has not been decided, Rebel Pedal’s fares are intended to be competitive with local taxi fares, according to Seidl. Seidl plans to secure pedicab parking on the Square outside of Oxford’s busiest bars. He also intends to use the cab as an advertising tool by asking companies to buy squares of space on the car part of the cab. Seidl said he wants his drivers to be knowledgeable about Oxford’s history as well, so that the passengers are provided with some sort of entertainment and commentary along the ride. “The way I see it, if I never took a shot, then I’d never know if it would become a success,” Seidl said. “I’d rather try and fail, than not do anything.” A website was recently created to promote the service.

Ole Miss pushes forward, looks to LSU BY DAVID COLLIER thedmsports@gmail.com
The brutal part of the schedule is almost over for Ole Miss. The Rebels (3-3, 1-3 Southeastern Conference) have lost three straight, and they get a date at home with No. 6 LSU on Saturday. “A difficult stretch we’ve had,” Ole Miss head coach Hugh Freeze said Monday in his weekly press conference. “We’ve gotten beaten by the No. 1 team, No. 6 team, No. 24 team, and we have another top-10 team coming in this week. It’s been arguably the toughest stretch of games that I can recall seeing since 2006. “It’s been a great challenge. It’s been one where we’ve learned quite a bit about ourselves. I continue to be extremely proud of the way our kids compete and prepare. It was great being back home in front of our home crowd. It definitely is a boost for our kids and raises our level. We’re going to need that for the remainder of the year.” The Rebels will get to face another explosive offense this weekend in LSU, but it won’t be the same type of offense that Texas A&M presented this past week-
end. The Tigers are traditional-style offense that can make plays in both the air and on the ground. LSU is led by running back Jeremy Hill on the ground and has a stable of backs they can put in behind him, but what is making the LSU offense even more effective this season is the play of quarterback Zach Mettenberger. Mettenberger has thrown for 1,890 yards and 15 touchdowns this season with just two interceptions. He had just 12 touchdown passes all of last year. “He was good, and he was certainly good in our game last year, but he certainly has improved,” Freeze said of Mettenberger. “The offensive mentality has changed a bit. They’re certainly playing their strengths of winning one-on-one matchups to the outside. You have to load the box to stop the run. “Mettenberger isn’t missing many open receivers when he has them. He’s making very, very good throws and managing the game extremely well. He’s one of the better guys we’ve faced this year.” Focusing on the big goal After Ole Miss’ loss this past Saturday, Freeze was seen by video cameras to be in an exchange with a fan as Freeze was walking off the

field. Monday he talked about the frustration levels of himself, his team and the fan base and where they should look going forward. “I will defend our program. I will defend our kids. I will defend my family. If I offended anyone, I’m certainly sorry,” Freeze said. “I don’t think I was disrespectful to anyone. I just got my point across. “The greatest thing about Ole Miss is family. That is our selling point. It is working. Every time a recruit comes on this campus with their family, we have a chance to get them because the strongest thing we have is family. I have disagreements with my family. There is a way to go about those things. The greatest thing about family is you can have a disagreement and move past it.

Injuries piling up for Ole Miss as LSU looms BY DAVID COLLIER thedmsports@gmail.com
When Ole Miss battles No. 6 LSU this Saturday, it’ll be doing so short-handed. At Rebel head coach Hugh Freeze’s weekly press conference Monday, he named a laundry list of injured players, and most of them will miss this week’s game. First and foremost, the health of junior linebacker Serderius Bryant has been a big topic of discussion since he was carted off the field on a stretcher this past Saturday with what looked to be a neck or head injury. Luckily for Bryant and Ole Miss, Freeze said Bryant suffered only a concussion, but Freeze was overwhelmed with the support coming from fans of Ole Miss, Texas A&M and other schools around the SEC. “It reminds you that the goodness of people is still out there,” Freeze said. “Even though we battle extremely hard in recruiting and in games for victories, a lot of people still recognize there’s a lot more that’s more important. “We appreciate those prayers and thank God that all he has suffered is a good concussion. He certainly had one and was knocked out, which caused all of the concern. When a kid is knocked out, you’re not certain exactly what the extent of injuries could be.” Freeze said Bryant was at the team meetings on Sunday and has already started the protocol testing to get back
on the field. The defense has taken the biggest hit due to injuries. Other than Bryant, the list includes freshman defensive end Robert Nkemdiche, junior defensive end C.J. Johnson, sophomore corner Mike Hilton, sophomore safety Chief Brown, sophomore defensive tackle Issac Gross, junior defensive end Carlos Thompson and freshman linebacker Temario Strong are all on the walking wounded list. Offensively, just senior running back Jeff Scott and senior quarterback Barry Brunetti could miss time due to injury. Freeze said Brunetti will probably play this week, while Scott will definitely miss today’s practice and be reevaluated after that. He also said Gross will probably try to go, but everyone else is either doubtful or worse for the matchup against LSU. “It’s part of the game,” Freeze said. “You sure hate it. You hate it for the kids. You fear that because of our depth issues that we won’t be able to adequately represent the progress that we’re making against these top teams. That’s part of the game. We won’t blink. We’ll get everybody ready that can play. I know they’ll compete with great passion for our university Saturday evening.” For continuing coverage of Ole Miss football, follow @DavidLCollier and @thedm_sports on Twitter.
