One killed, one injured in near-campus stabbing A NN SMAJSTRLA Staff Writer
A man was killed and another was seriously injured early Sunday morning during a stabbing fight in the parking lot of Bar Rio, said Ryan Grelle, public information officer for the
Denton Police Department. The three men were fighting outside the bar around 2 a.m. when the suspect produced a knife and stabbed the two victims, Grelle said. One victim died on the scene, and the other was transported to the hospital
and remains there in serious condition. The suspect of the stabbing remains at large. He was described by witnesses as a Hispanic male in his early 20s about 5-feet-5inches tall, Grelle said. The Denton Police Department
is investigating the homicide and questioning witnesses. It remains unclear where the fight began, Grelle said, but it ended in the parking lot in front of Bar Rio and Ringers. Bar Rio is located in a shopping center at the corner of Eagle
Drive and Bernard Street next to Ringers bar, the EZ Check convenience store and a vacant building that once housed the R-Bar. EZ Check employee Rabin Paudyal was closing the convenience store when the homicide occurred but did not witness it.
Paudyal said violence is a frequent occurrence in that parking lot and said he is concerned for the people who live in the nearby apartments.

A-train involved in third accident A LEX M ACON
Senior Staff Writer Denton’s A-train collided with a car Friday on the tracks at the Highway 121 crossing in Lewisville, the third accident the train has been involved in since it began running on June 20. Accord i ng to a n Oct. 14 article in the Denton Record-Chronicle, the car was attempting to stop at the railroad crossing when the crossing bars came down and a second vehicle rearended the car into the train’s path. The car’s driver and one passenger on the train were hospitalized. Dee Leggett, vice president of communications and planning for the Denton County Transportation Authority, said DCTA’s investigation of the incident had found no flaws with the A-train. “All three incidents we’ve had on the line have been based on external factors,” Leggett said. I n S e pt e m b e r, a n 8 6 -y e a r- o l d L e w i s v i l l e woman was hospitalized after being struck by the A-train, and in June the rail
line collided with a trailer that had been on the tracks near the Old Town Station in Lewisville. Leggett said the elderly woman, who was listed in stable condition within 24 hours, had been walking on a sidewalk near the A-train’s track and had accidentally turned into the oncoming train. The man whose trailer caused the accident in June was arrested for outstanding warrants, she said. Leggett said DCTA has thoroughly investigated every accident the A-train has been involved in. These investigations include going over the rail line’s version of the “black box” recorders found in airplanes, interviewing conductors and inspecting the diagnostics and functionality of the train. “DCTA does everything possible to prevent incidents from occurring,” Leggett said. According to its website, DCTA coordinates with local first responders and holds regular committee meetings to ensure high safety standards on the A-train.

Reina Hardesty, 13, of Lake Forest, Calif., lets her fingers fly as she texts her dad. Some cell phone users will now receive a notification every time they exceed their text message or minute limits.
Customers to receive cellphone bill alerts (MCT) WASHINGTON — The days of shockingly high and unexpected charges on cellphone bills could be coming to an end. AT&T Inc., Verizon Wireless and other major cellphone providers have agreed with U.S. regulators to begin sending alerts to customers who are approaching monthly voice, text or data limits. The aim is to help them avoid hefty additional charges that cause what consumer advocates call bill shock. Under the voluntary industry guidelines, developed under the threat of new government regulations, companies also would send alerts when customers exceed their plans’ limits and are subject to overage charges. Customers traveling abroad would be warned that they are about to incur often pricey international roaming fees, according to Federal Communications Commission officials. The alerts will be free to customers, who will automati-

cally receive them unless they choose not to, said the officials, who requested anonymity to release details ahead of the official announcement. FCC C h a i r m a n Ju l iu s Genachowski will unveil the guidelines Monday at a news conference with the head of wireless industry trade group CTIA and an executive from advocacy group Consumers Union, which has pushed for regulations and will help monitor compliance. The g uidelines come a year after the FCC proposed mandating over-the-limit and out-of-t he-count r y a ler ts. Genachowski at the time cited one person who was hit with a $35,000 bill for data and texting charges incurred while visiting a relative in Haiti after the 2010 earthquake. He said the agreement was a victory for the nation’s more than 300 million wireless users and will “ensure consumers get a fair shake, not bill shock.” Some wireless companies had started
providing their own alerts in the absence of standardized rules. The White House, which has been under fire from Republicans and business groups for expanding government regulation, touted the voluntar y agreement with a major industry to protect consumers. “Far too many Americans know what it’s like to open up their cellphone bill and be shocked by hundreds or even thousands of dollars in unexpected fees and charges,” President Barack Obama said in a statement. “Our phones shouldn’t cost us more than the monthly rent or mortgage.” The new guidelines, expected to be in place within 18 months, come at a time when consumers could be more vulnerable to overage charges as some wireless carriers move away from unlimited smartphone data plans. A Consumers Union poll in May showed that more than 60 percent of wireless customers
supported a government rule to avoid bill shock. CTIA opposed the FCC’s proposed regulations, arguing that the problem was not widespread and that government rules could harm industry growth. But as the lengthy rule-making process began, the trade group and the FCC started discussing voluntary guidelines. Steve Largent, the group’s president, said the agreement was “a perfect example of how government agencies and industries they regulate can work together ... to consider whether new rules are necessary or would unnecessarily burden businesses and the economy.” The new Wireless Consumer Usage Notification Guidelines will be added to CTIA’s existing consumer code, which among other things requires participating companies to post accurate coverage maps and give new customers 14 days to cancel service without early termination fees.
he was confronted with the fanfare of the crime scene. “The entire perimeter of the EZ Check was sealed off w ith crime tape and there were two to three patrol cars and several officers,” Heck said. “I spoke to one officer who told us that a homicide had occurred and directed us to walk down Bernard to get to my apartment.”
Although Heck lives close to t he locat ion where t he homicide occurred, he said the incident has not raised his or his roommate’s level of concern for their safety. “While it is undoubtedly a tragic event, it doesn’t particularly bother me,” he said.

In between political discussions and the occasional bongo drum performance or vuvuzela honk, there are yoga classes and the daily 5 p.m. general assembly. General assemblies can be “excruciating,” Graham said, emphasizing that while it could be difficult for a diverse group to come to a consensus and make decisions, it was a prime example of democracy at work. “At the ver y least, the resounding consensus is that corporate capitalism is not working,” Graham said. Although the Occupy Denton movement lacks the size of similar protests in other cities, several protesters said it was only a matter of building momentum.
Page 3 ntdnewseditors@gmail.com “We’ll get bigger,” said Ben Kessler, a philosophy junior and veteran of the Iraq War. “I know I’m going to be here indefinitely.” A few students at Occupy Denton on Monday night said they had mostly just been curious about the group, but agreed that people had a reason to be “fed up.” “I’m $12,000 in student loan debt,” art sophomore Bobby McLane said. “I’m going to graduate with my head underwater.” She said she had no intention of sleeping at Occupy Denton but was going to come by as often as possible. Other protesters said they had experienced some harassment, mostly from drunken revelers on Fry Street. Some said they had been criticized for choosing a location on
university property across the street from several small businesses. Gra ham said Occupy Denton had been in close contact with the movement in Dallas and other cities, describing it as an organic, evolving democratic organization. “There needs to be an occupation in every city and every town,” Graham said. “Wall Street has shown us that this movement has no sign of stopping.” Several protesters said they weren’t sure what effect the Occupy movement would have but were intent on sticking it out. “Whether it ends in apocalypse or utopia or businessas-usual, nobody walks away the same from these kinds of things,” Graham said.

Johnson compared t he current movement to his involvement w it h t he Resurrection City camp where he saw Dr. King’s “I Have a Dream” speech. “If Dr. King was alive, he would probably be sleeping in one of these tents here, so it’s more important that we take a stand with you all,” he said. One of Joh nson’s ma in focuses was on the practical ways for protesting. He told them to remain peaceful, not provoke t he Da llas Police Department and to “stay on track” with the purpose of the movement. He also advised the demonstrators to organize and mobilize. “You being here is forcing our nation to discuss corporate greed,” he said. “We wouldn’t be having this discussion if you weren’t here,” he said. “You have captured the attention of our nation; use this wisely.” Steven Arzu, a radio, television and film junior, was present for Johnson’s speech and has been living in the Dallas camp since Oct. 7. “It w a s g reat to have someone who is a part of this and who can actually break down that wall between age,” Arzu said. A Dallas native, Arzu said he’s still keeping up with his classes on a daily basis and keeping in touch w ith his teachers despite his decision to live in the camp. Stephen Michael Benavides, a UNT alumnus and member of
United Steelworkers, has been at the camp since the start on Oct. 6 and has been involved in organizing marches and events at Occupy Dallas. “We produce results, the corporations and the elite do not; they hoard wealth,” he said. “They’ve been doing so for about 10 years now and this is the response.”
Organization of camps David Burres, a member of the media committee at Occupy Da llas, has been ca mped i n Da l la s si nce Oct. 6. and said some of the problems the group has had began on the first day. Many protesters seemed to have arrived to simply create a scene without any intention of staying or being informed, he said. “It st a r ted of f pret t y chaotic, having people that wanted to be rabble-rousers and basically cause problems, trying to cause a war with the police, not really understanding what they were here for,” he said. Fol low i ng t h is, t he protesters had to deal with the issue of the city-mandated insurance policy that required the Occupy Dallas protesters to pay an amount of $1 million to Dallas to stay in the camp. The protesters negot iated w it h t he cit y to move t he camp to an appointed location behind City Hall. Demonstrators initially requested to stay at Pioneer Park, symbolically marked by the city’s bronze longhorn cattle-drive statues. However,
the group held a vote and decided with a two-thirds majority that the camp would relocate. “I think it’s a great opportunity, because we can set up the media center and continue outreach and keep it growing,” Burres said. He summed up the difficulties as well as the successes of the group as a work-inprogress. “It’s a gathering of people collectively building an infrastructure, a social experiment and a political action,” he said “A lot of people get disappointed and they don’t realize this is just something we have to build in order to be effective and not just get a handful of people being proactive and getting locked up.” Fol low ing t he sta r t of Occupy Dallas, a Fort Worth camp began with protesters taking temporary residence at Burnett Park on Seventh Street. A lden A ldrich, Occupy Fort Worth media committee person, said the camp started Oct. 10 and has a daytime popu lat ion of 20 to 30 people. The group had its first major march on Saturday afternoon, moving through downtown Fort Worth. Monday, the Fort Worth Star Telegram reported that police had a rrested four demonstrators at the camp over the weekend. Aldrich said since then, the camp has received support and legal counsel from participants at Occupy Dallas and Houston.

UNT students host fashion show of heroic detail DAISY SILOS Staff Writer
A not-so-classic showdown between good and evil will take place tonight in the Silver Eagle Suite. Students will dress up as superheroes and villains to take part in the first Homecoming fashion show called “Alter-Hero.” The show will include four scenes and two dance performances, said Aldarylro Williams, a musical theater junior. “When you come in, we want you to get the feel that you’re at a party,” Williams said. “It’ll feel like you’re in the scene of the crime and try to figure who’s going to help you and who’s not.” Williams said he came up with the idea of a fashion show because he noticed a lack of participation from students during Homecoming Week. “I noticed there weren’t many events throughout the week for students to participate,” he said. “I wanted to make something fun and exciting students would enjoy.” Adrienne Garland, president of Kappa Pi Sigma, is helping Williams co-direct the event and said they’ve had the idea to hold a fashion show since the summer. “We’ve just been waiting for the Homecoming theme to be

type of clothes and makeup they wear, said Shannon Kennard, a merchandising senior and creative director of design and styling for the show. The clothes being used in the
show are from as far as New York and close as the Dillard’s in the Golden Triangle Mall, Williams said. “We’re using brown and cream for the heroes and black and white
PHOTO BY REBEKAH GOMEZ/STAFF PHOTOGRAPHER for the villains,” Kennard said. “It’s not anything exotic, but we do have a lot of prints and mixing of colors.” One thing they’re focusing on is the makeup, Kennard said.
“We want to have dramatic styles for each villain and hero,” she said. “We want more of an eyeliner mask for the villains and give the heroes a softer but still edgy look.” Williams said they hope to gain success from the show to hand down to another organization. “We want to give it to a group so they can take it and make it their own,” he said. “We want to keep this alive and see if they can beat us out.” The idea for the show was to incorporate the hero theme and give it a bit of a twist, Williams said. “We took the Incredible Scrappy and then took alter ego and turned it into Alter-Hero,” he said. “Any donations we get in the show we’re going to donate to Susan G. Komen.” The show has a total of 28 models who will portray the heroes and villains in the show. Tiffany Thomas, a hospitality management junior, will be a model for the show and said it’s her first time participating in a show like this. “I’m just nervous because I’m a clumsy person,” she said. “My biggest fear is that I’ll fall down in front of everyone.” Students can go see Alter-Hero at 7 p.m. tonight.

Mean Green falls to conference leader PAUL BOTTONI
Senior Staff Writer Despite keeping the score close through three quarters, the UNT football team could not overcome conference foe Louisiana-Lafayette this weekend in Lafayette, La. The first-place Ragin’ Cajuns (6-1) defeated the Mean Green (2-5) 30-10 Saturday. “I thought we did lots of good things,” UNT head coach Dan McCarney said. “[We] got a fourth down stop when they were backed up [in their end of the field]; we got a couple of turnovers; but in the end, we just didn’t play good enough to win.” The Mean Green defense held the score to 13-10 in favor of ULL through three quarters. However – with a crowd of 32,823 cheering its team on – the Ragin’ Cajuns posted 17 unanswered points in the fourth quarter to pull ahead. With the win, ULL became the first Sun Belt team this season to reach the necessary six victories to become bowl-game eligible. In the second quarter – with the Mean Green leading 10-7 – the Ragin’ Cajuns attempted and failed to extend an offensive series on a fourth-down play on their own 25-yard line.
The UNT offense took over in ULL territory with a chance to give the Mean Green control of the game – but it all changed on one play. After the drive stalled, UNT sophomore kicker Zach Olen lined up for a 47-yard field goal, but it was blocked. ULL regained possession of the ball, quickly drove down the field and scored a touchdown. UNT would not score for the remainder of the contest. The Mean Green defense did its part to keep ULL from sprinting away with the lead, tallying four quarterback sacks, recovering two fumbles and recording seven tackles behind t he l i ne of scr i m mage. In the fourth quarter, however, the UNT offense’s inability to maintain a series led the ULL offense to possess the ball for about nine minutes. Try as it might, the Mean Green defense could no longer hold back the Ragin’ Cajuns offense and ULL finally pulled away. “It was definitely a struggle,” sophomore quarterback Derek Thompson said. “We didn’t accomplish what we wanted to accomplish tonight. We had a lot of opportunities; we just didn’t execute.” The ULL defense held the UNT

offense to 232 total yards. Senior running back Lance Dunbar’s streak of three consecutive 100-yard rushing games was snapped, as he finished the night with 53 yards rushing. Dunbar scored UNT’s only touchdown on a 2-yard run in the second quarter. “We have major issues on offense and we have to get it fixed,” McCarney said. “It’s completely unacceptable. You just can’t win games scoring 10 points in Division I football; not nowadays.” UNT will return to action Saturday at Apogee Stadium against Louisiana-Monroe for UNT’s Homecoming weekend.
Strong pitching helps softball team prevail BRETT MEDEIROS Staff Writer
With stout pitching and clutch hitting, the UNT softball team was the best team in town Friday night, defeating Denton rival TWU 5-1. Led by sophomore infielder Brooke Foster, the Mean Green (3-0) scored all of its runs in two innings en route to the victory. “Our timing was off a little bit at the plate in the beginning. The girls were just not picking good pitches to hit or sing at,” head coach T.J. Hubbard said. “Give credit to them [TWU]; they had great pitching against us early. Most of the game was just hit and miss.” The Pioneers kept the game close early on, allowing only two runs in the first seven innings. Foster got the scoring started with a two-run single in the top of the second and added two more RBIs with a homerun over the left-center wall in the seventh inning on a 0-2 count. “It wasn’t really my pitch, but I saw that it was going to be a strike, so I just reacted and put the bat on the ball,” Foster said. Though Foster provided the power for UNT on offense, the player of the game worked from the mound. Sophomore Lauren Poole pitched a scoreless six
innings, allowing only two hits and zero walks while striking out six batters. “I really just wanted to be more consistent with my pitches and hitting the spots where they needed to be,” Poole said. “The defense helped a ton today. It’s nice knowing you have a team
behind you that’s going to be able to back you up so you don’t feel like you’re playing by yourself.” The Mean Green returns to action against another DallasFort Worth rival when it visits the University of Texas-Arlington at 6 p.m. Thursday.
Intern Relying on two of its freshmen, the UNT swimming and diving team won its season opener by defeating Tulane 175-123 in New Orleans, La., on Saturday. The team’s first obstacle came before the meet began, as a delay in travel shortened the team’s pregame warmups. “The only unexpected thing was how well the team responded to it; no fear,” head coach Joe Dykstra said. Freshmen Mona Groteguth and Krista Rossum led the way for UNT from the start. Groteguth dropped two seconds off her 100-yard backstroke time from the Green and White meet with a time of 57.76, finishing just one and a half seconds away from the school record. The first-year swimmer also improved in the backstroke, shaving four seconds off her previous 200-yard time. The biggest challenge for Groteguth has been adjusting to the college swimming structure, she said. “Swimming four events in two hours, in Germany [where Groteguth grew up] it’s like four events in two days; it’s really tough,” she said. Rossum also thrived, swimming the seventh-fastest 100-yard breaststroke time in school history with a 1:04.85. “I think it’s perfectly clear to anyone involved in our program; she’s going to be the school-record holder in a number of events,” Dykstra said.

Senior Delia Covo returns to diving practice after the Mean Green’s win Saturday in New Orleans. “My goal was one: win, two: have the team bond, and we had great times, and that was just the icing on the cake.” Although the team won by a solid margin, there is room for improvement in the relays, Dykstra said. “Our relays were not good; we have a long way to go,” he said. “We haven’t spent a lot of time on relay starts. We’ll try and put that into training in the coming weeks.”
S op h om or e C a t h e r i n e Johnson was the standout among the divers UNT brought to the meet, finishing only a few points off from qualifying for the NCAA Zone Diving Meet. “We need to stay focused,” diving coach Jim Pyrch said. “We weren’t as consistent as we’ll need to be.” UNT hosts its first home meet of the season Saturday at the Pohl Recreation Center against New Mexico State.

Volleyball team takes one of two in Bayou
BRETT MEDEIROS Staff Writer
After coming up short against the Louisiana Sun Belt teams earlier this season, the UNT volleyball team (12-13, 3-6) split a pair of five-set matches against Louisiana-Monroe and LouisianaLafayette this weekend. The Mean Green now sits in fifth place out of six teams in the Sun Belt West Division.
Mistake-filled victory Two weeks after falling to the Warhawks (9-8, 3-4) in a five-set heartbreaker, UNT defeated ULM in another five-set match that it almost gave away (25-15, 25-20, 21-25, 30-32, 15-9). “We did a great job by getting
good serves in and had everything in the right spots,” head coach Ken Murczek said. “We crippled them offensively early. I knew ULM would come out with a real attitude ‘cause they play hard. They felt pretty comfortable after the first two sets.” The match went back and forth, including 36 ties and 13 different lead changes. Both teams let mistakes get in the way, as a combined 82 errors were made. “The fact that they [ULM] beat us at their home court, we just came out with that determination and change of attitude,” senior setter Kayla Saey said. The win against the Warhawks gave the Mean Green its third straight victory at home.

Making History The first-ever triple double in the Mean Green Volleyball Center’s history was recorded this weekend by ULM player Zuzana Markova. She earned 11 kills, 32 assists and 17 digs. Inconsistency plagues UNT Trying to build on its winning streak, UNT fought until the end but came up short in the team’s second consecutive five set match (28-26, 18-25, 21-25, 25-19, 11-15) against the Ragin’ Cajuns (10-14, 2-6). “We just didn’t execute. We put ourselves in a bad spot, especially in the fifth game, and we couldn’t take care of the ball like we needed to,” Murczek said. “A couple players who were clutch on Friday just didn’t show up towards the end. That’s been our Achilles heel.” The Mean Green stayed in the game with consistent play and double doubles from sophomore Courtney Windham and freshman Eboni Godfrey. UNT only hit .043 as a team and ULL took full advantage of the Mean Green mistakes, pulling away to a 15-11 victory in the final set. “We really need to focus on our side of the net,” Windham said. “We needed to get that first set back that we somehow lost.” UNT will take its 3-6 c on ferenc e re c ord to A labama when it v isits South Alabama and Troy this weekend.
Despite ta k ing its f irst conference loss of the season this past weekend, the UNT soccer team maintained its spot in second place in the Sun Belt with a bounce-back effort. A f ter fa l ling to Florida International Friday, the Mean Green (11-4-1, 6-1-0) defeated Florida Atlantic, to earn its 17t h-consecut ive w inning season. The team has never had a losing season in the program’s history.
Missed opportunities UNT had its f ive-ga me winning streak snapped Friday in Miami, Fla., against Florida International (9-6-1, 6-1-1), which sits in third place in the Sun Belt Conference. Despite outshooting the Golden Panthers by 13 shots, the Mean Green couldn’t find a way to put the ball in the net and lost 1-0. “It’s hard to believe you outshoot your opponent 21-8 and somehow lose the game, but in the end it comes down to finishing,” head coach John Hedlund said. “We had so many opportunities [Friday night], but unfortunately the ball did not go in for us. It’s an empty feeling right now, but we can’t let this one loss affect us.” The lone goal of the contest came off the foot of FIU senior defender April Perry in the 59th minute after a scoreless first half.

so beating them was a confidence booster,” head coach Sam Burroughs said. “Any time you beat teams from your conference, you feel good about it.” Senior Ingrid Mollenkopf led the way for the seven UNT women, as she finished the 6k race in 21:42, good enough for 42nd place in the 296-runner field. Senior Sara Dietz (68th) and freshman Hanna Rice (95th) followed Mollenkopf in second and third for UNT. Freshmen Ellie Arends (119th) and Lauren Sullivan (156th) rounded out UNT’s top five. “We all pushed each other through the race,” Mollenkopf said. “It was tough to run together
with all the bodies out there, but each of our girls finished around 20 seconds apart from each other.” Silje Fjortoft of SMU won the race in a time of 19:44 and Texas edged Arkansas to take first as a team. The men, looking to build momentum, fared far better than at the Cowboy Jamboree two weeks ago, when they finished 15th out of 19 teams. Led by sophomore Matt Russ, six UNT men finished 22nd out of 32 teams with 632 points. Although the team finished behind conference rivals UALR and ULM, it edged out Sun Belt opponent Arkansas State. Russ cruised through the 10k to an 86th-place finish in 31:34. As was the case in previous meets, senior Michael Sandoval followed next behind Russ in 129th. Freshman Aurelio Silva (168th), sophomore Aleksi Ikonen (218th) and freshman Austin Yaeger (228th) finished third, fourth and fifth for the team. “Even though we finished behind UALR and ULM, I think this was our best performance of the season,” Silva said. “The gaps between our runners are closing, which is essential to placing well at conference.” Cam Levins of Southern Utah took first in a time of 29:13 and OSU won as a team. As the teams prepare for the conference meet, Burroughs said the sole goal for the next two weeks is staying healthy. “Everything from here on out is about not getting sick and taking care of the issues that we have,” Burroughs said. “It’s not always the best team that wins at conference, but the healthiest team.”

NBA should occupy its basketball courts
Occupy Elsewhere Editorial Approximately 12 days ago, the Occupy movement began to sweep across Texas. Protesters took to the streets of Dallas, Austin, San Antonio and Houston, hoping to end corporate greed in America. Pass by the corner of Hickory and Fry street and you’ll now be greeted by a group of 50 people occupying Denton – specifically the lawn side of the Language Building. Several demonstrators said they were there because they’re fed up with corporate greed or income inequality, but you couldn’t tell from the signs that adorned the trees. Just like the Freddie Mercury quotes scribbled across a block of cardboard that seems to miss the point, it undoubtedly misses the mark to occupy the UNT campus. As during the Vietnam War, the Civil Rights Movement, and more recently tuition hikes in California, college campuses have typically been hotspots for protests. Students could have swarmed universities across the nation up in arms against corporate greed – but they didn’t. The movement started on Wall Street with intentions to protest the stronghold that banks and bankers have on politicians. Now, with the Occupy protests gaining momentum in Dallas, it seems futile to bring it to a college campus, especially in a city that fosters local business growth. There are no big, evil corporations headquartered here in Denton. On the other hand, though, Dallas is home to a slew of corporate headquarters for industries with money vested in politics like Energy Future Holdings, Atmos Energy, Energy Transfer Equity and Exxon Mobil in Irving. Certainly these corporations are more worthy of being occupied than any lawn on this university. Yet, the protesters say they will occupy UNT for as long as they need. As protests began to spread, occupants around the nation said they were standing “in solidarity” with the Wall Street protesters. The Denton occupants should follow suit and stand in protests where it’s called for and where they are needed. The proliferation of the Occupy movements across the nation has shown there is strength in numbers. People are beginning to pay attention, and the world is watching. There is still time for Occupy Denton to be a part of something much bigger than itself and the Language Building.
Campus Chat Do you think women who are seeking abortions should be required to listen to the fetal heartbeat before they can consent to an abortion?
It is perfect that the most widespread and unified protest of corporate greed this country has seen coincides with what should be the first couple weeks of basketball season. Based on the very values that many Americans are taking to the streets and speaking out against with demonstrations like Occupy Wall Street, NBA commissioner David Stern has canceled the first two weeks of basketball season. That leaves us (the fans) in a place of solemn contemplation. I don’t have a degree in economics or contract law, so proposing solutions to a multibillion-dollar labor dispute would be arrogant, but it is not arrogant to ask why there’s a multibillion-dollar labor dispute and to rebuke those who initiated it. There a re jobs direct ly relating to the NBA that are going to be lost or delayed. For instance, food servers at stadiums, ticket scanners,
bag checkers, replay guys and camera operators will be affected. All of them stand vulnerable to the whims of billionaires and millionaires who don’t mind losing a couple months of work because if things get tight, they can just sell their “other, other Benz.” This also reaches beyond the NBA. Local business owners are sometimes dependent on the influx of revenue brought in by game day. Imagine the tips a waitress at a bar immediately next to a Staples receives on game night, then take that payroll away until potentially January. I don’t imagine the majority of these workers have a spare luxury car to hawk or a backup pillowcase full of cash. When I started college, I had the same cynical outlook toward capitalism and corporatism as any philosophy major. Now I’m a journalism major,
and I’ve realized that without corporate institutions we would not have some really great stuff, like professional sports, or Six Flags, but most importantly professional sports. Professional sports, in fact, are the only way I cope with the negative implications of an advanced consumer society. It makes it feel as though spending money on my MasterCard to buy a basketball ticket and a beer is oddly patriotic, and I don’t feel apologetic for that. Now corporatism rears its ugly head, and the mask of innocence provided by friendly competition has been ripped off. The sport has been dirtied and the fans hurt. For the first time since finding my love for basketball, I feel as though I have to apologize for believing in its competitive purity. What I want is a functioning collective bargaining agreement. I want the owners and the players to prove that they’re
both bigger than greed, and that the true reason they play the sport, or own the team, is to win. Not to profit, to win. Ever y basketba ll player knows that to get the charging call you want, you have to take a big hit, then sell it. That’s all I’m asking for. Take your lumps, and make the season happen. It’s bigger than you.

The movement is what we make of it It’s certainly a very exciting time to be alive. Revolutions and near-revolutions are rolling across the globe at unprecedented speed. I am, of course, talking about the Occupy Wall Street movement that started in New York City and has quickly spread across North America, South America, Europe and around the world. Today is the second day of Occupy Denton on the corner of Fry and Hickory. This movement has brought together a diversity of voices outraged about everything, including the collapse of our economy, poverty and inequa lit y, env ironmenta l destruction, endless wars and the sad truth that we no longer live in a real democracy. Instead, we are prisoners in a corporate plutocracy. The most common criticism of the movement has been that its demands are unclear, or that the movement doesn’t know what it wants. I think this is a misconception exacerbated by corporate media
that do not know how to cover or analyze a global movement without leaders or authority because they are themselves authoritarian institutions with no desire to see these movements succeed. Despite the multiplicity of concerns and the diversity of perspectives, this global movement is clearly and unquestionably a demand that the people of the world organize alternatives to corporate capitalism. That much is certain, but there are many voices in this movement and many proposed solutions. This free exchange of possibilities is not a weakness – it is the movement’s greatest strength. Our protest is to create a community where we can come together and exercise real democracy. Our occupation is a microcosm of how we would like our society to function. This movement is different from a traditional protest where you are expected to show up on
the corner for a couple of hours, wave signs and chant slogans, and then return home to get ready to go to work. Instead, what we are creating here is an organic democratic organism, not a one-time demonstration. What we have created on the corner of Fry and Hickory is a space where possibilities and alternatives can manifest themselves, not to mention the fun and camaraderie that come with sharing public space with friends and neighbors. Arts and crafts, music and dancing, yoga and meditation, sharing meals and sharing ideas: This is what makes the occupation worth supporting. Through the democratic consensus of the general assemblies, this social organism is evolving day by day. Do you have a proposal? Do you have a concern? Do you think we’re doing this all wrong? Then come join the occupation and let your voice be heard.
There are general assemblies every night at 5 p.m., and everyone is welcome and encouraged to participate because we are the only solution we’re going to have. This movement is what we make of it. History is knocking; the tides are turning, and years from now you will be asked, “Where were you when the occupation began?”

“I would say yes because of the fact that I think it should remind them to make a conscious decision of what they’re about to do, and that yes, this is a life that is growing inside of you and it is the mother’s decision whether or not she is going to let this life progress or end.”
