Students braved stubbed toes a nd hot pavement Tuesday as they went about their campus activities barefoot in support of the fourth a n nua l One Day W it hout Shoes event. The event was started by Blake Mycoskie, the founder of TOMS shoes, a company wh ich donates one pair of shoes to a needy child for every pair purchased. Those participating went an entire day without shoes to raise awareness of the importance of a pair of shoes in a child’s life.

The fourth annual North Texas Health Forum is expecting a capacity crowd Thursday and Friday to discuss topics of children’s mental health as the event kicks off National Public Health Week. The School of Public Health at the UNT Health Science Center in Fort Worth is hosting this year’s forum, “Embracing our Community of African Children.” Richard Kurz, the School of Public Health’s dean, said about 200 attended the forum last year. This year, the event sold all 250 tickets for Thursday and 170 tickets for Friday. “As the forum gets to be better known in the community, people are more aware of it, and so they understand better what we are trying to do,” Kurz said. “More folks are coming out to be a part of that.” Kurz said those expected to attend include health science students, social workers, professionals in the criminal justice system, educators, religious leaders and African-American community members.
Sudan Jackson, a public health doctoral student, said she plans to attend the forum. “It is a great opportunity as a student to get out and meet community members and see the ground level work that goes on to address health issues, and I am just happy that our school provides those kind of opportunities to their students,” she
“It is a great opportunity ... to get out and meet community members.”
—Sudan Jackson, public health doctoral student said. The forum is an extension of last year’s topic on infant mortality with a high focus on the emotional well-being of African-American children, Kurz said. “Indeed stress and stressrelated events that occur in a person’s life can have a distinct effect in the long term on their physical health as well as birth
outcomes,” he said “That was one of the reasons that we chose to focus on this with regard to African-American children.” Sally Crocker, a planning committee member, said the first day of the forum would include a student session called “A Conversation with the Speaker” at 2:30 pm. This would give any college student the opportunity to address the keynote speaker with any questions or concerns. The keynote address will be given at 6 p.m. by Alwyn Cohall, a pediatrician practicing in Harlem, N.Y., and a faculty member in the school of public health at Columbia University, Kurz said. “He has a number of projects going on in the community to deal with the health, mental health and emotional problems of children,” he said. “He has been actively engaged in this for a number of years, and has a national reputation through his activities and his publications in this area.” The forum will conclude on the second day with a symposium, including panelists and break out sessions, from 8 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.
Move over motorists — a new ruling passed Tuesday night by the Denton City Council will require drivers to give cyclists and pedestrians a little leeway on city streets. The council unanimously approved a Vulnerable Road Users ordinance Tuesday that mandates a safe passing distance of 3 feet between cyclists and cars and 6 feet for large commercial vehicles. The new law also establishes a maximum $200 fine for drivers caught cutting it too close to pedestrians, workers and cyclists occupying the road. “This ordinance’s general intent is to increase awareness of bikes and pedestrians, and for the city to encourage alternative transportation,” said Denton Mayor Mark Burroughs during the meeting. The ruling also requires drivers to grant cyclists the right-of-way when making a left turn or u-turn into oncoming traffic. It also protects pedestrians and cyclists from harassment by drivers or passengers in motor vehicles by leveling a $200 fine. The ordinance will take effect exactly two weeks from today, a short time for
cycling advocates who have been pressuring the city for accommodations for more than a year. “When you’re going down the road on your bike and there is a vehicle coming at you at 50 mph, and you feel their mirror come next to you, it’s scary,” said Joe Gregory, a cyclist and Denton resident. “It is common sense that there needs to be some kind of minimal distance.” Sixteen states have similar safe passing distance laws and cities such as New Braunfels, Austin, El Paso and San Antonio have adopted them in Texas. Local cyclists said motorists texting while driving and increased traffic are making t hem more v ulnerable. Motorists kill an estimated 50 cyclists and 400 pedestrians every year in Texas. Passage of the ordinance is keeping in line with the city’s ongoing plans to refurbish the downtown area into a destination for walkers and bikers. “It is one of many steps to encourage more active transportation,” said council member Dalton Gregory, one of the main advocates of the ruling.

Students turn to vegetarian diet

include a lower risk for heart disease and cancer, she said. “I decided to become a vegetarian because I never was a huge fan of the taste of meat,” said Brison Coldiron, a French language sophomore. “Plus I wanted to start living a healthier lifestyle.” Eighty percent of UNT dining halls’ meal options are vegetarian friendly, said Shohreh Sparks, the associate director of resident dining. “The vegetarian options in our dining halls are popular among all of the students,” she said. “We just try to offer students healthy and wholesome options.” Coldiron, who became a vegetarian in 2007, said when he eats in the dining halls, he usually opts for a salad, vegetable soup or the occasional veggie burger.

While many children are forced to eat fruits and vegetables by their parents, for some college students, those foods are their first choice. With obesity on the rise in America and on college campuses, some students are turning to a vegetarian diet to help fulfill their weight-loss goals. “Vegetarian diets can be beneficial for weight loss and maintenance,” said Ann Afflerbach of the merchandising and hospitality management faculty. “So it could benefit college students struggling with their weight, or those who are trying to maintain a healthy weight.” Some of the other health benefits of following a vegetarian diet

“I can usually find something to eat anywhere,” he said. “Burger and steak joints are usually a tad tricky though — those usually result in salads.” Rosa Ma lave of t he merchandising and hospitality management faculty, who is also the Club at the Gateway’s dining room manager, said she recommends a vegetarian diet to everyone. “It is very good for your body,” she said. “It helps you live longer and it makes for a healthier life.” In order to avoid nutrient deficiencies sometimes associated with a vegetarian diet, vegetarians must eat a variety of fruits and vegetables, as well as legumes and nuts, Afflerbach said. Protein that many people get from meat must be found elsewhere in tofu and soy products, Malave said. “These options actually have more protein than just a piece of meat,” she said. “They are also better for you.” People who are considering a vegetarian lifestyle should avoid common mistakes, such as eating too many sweets, products made with white flour and meal-replacement bars, Afflerbach said. “I’d say, take it slow, ease yourself into it,” Coldiron said. “Also, having a good backup team of friends and family who support it helps. If your friends and family don’t support the decision, it could be a tad more difficult.”

Paintball club to compete in national tournament BY BEN BABY
Senior Staff Writer When the UNT paintball club arrived at the National Collegiate Paintball Association National Championships two years ago, it was the only group without matching jerseys. One shirt read “Doughboy Fresh,” and another read “I was raised on the streets” with a picture of the characters of Sesame Street on the shirt. “We were kind of like the outcasts of the tournament,” said Zach Mora, the president of the organization and a sociology senior. “People looked at us and thought we were a joke.” Nobody was laughing when UNT took down the competition, earning the squad the 2009 Class AA Title. Now, the squad heads to Lakeland, Fla., on April 15, to compete in the 2011 NCPA National Championships. When the squad makes the trip to the Sunshine State, it will finally have matching gear. The club is allowed to use the UNT logo but designs to use the logo were not approved for this year’s tournament. “Looking back on all the adversity we had to overcome to be where we are today, and having recognition at least in the paintball community, and starting to get some recognition on campus is an amazing thing,” Mora said. Must be the money The UNT paintball club was founded in 2001 by alumnus
Jason Niehaus. Back then, it was not recognized by the university as an official club sport. The squad, which was known as NTX Paintball when it won the title, received recognition as a club following its championship in 2009. Because of the squad’s club status, it receives $500 from the university. The money goes to the club’s trip to nationals, said senior captain Colt Wallace. Wallace said money goes toward paint, transportation and a hotel room, but doesn’t cover all expenses. He said in order for UNT to practice, something it does one to two times a week, it costs about $75 per person. This year, when UNT goes to the NCPA National Championships, it will take one group and 50 cases of paint, which costs around $2,000. UNT currently plays at the Class A A level. Mora said a shortage of money holds the club from advancing to the Class A level. Behind the barricades Wallace has competed since age 10 and played in tournaments since he was 16. He’s changed the way UNT paintball has approached the activity. “W hen Colt came along, he kind of changed it from having fun to having fun with results,” said economics senior Jon Tarum. “At first, there was some feet dragging, but everybody has come around.” Because of the expenses, the club does not practice as
much as it likes. Still, the squad does about everything together, Mora and Wallace said. “We practica lly a ll live together, even though everybody’s in separate apartments and houses,” Wallace said. “Everybody’s hanging out together every day. There’s almost never a time you can’t call one of them, and expect three or four of the other guys to be there.” Mora said that strong bond between the teammates translates to the field. “It’s like a family,” Mora said. “I know that when we’re on the paintball field, in turn, I can trust anybody to do what they need to do so I don’t get shot. It builds that trust factor with everybody, no matter what happens, they’re going to be there.” The group recently received a sponsorship from Paintball Hero, a paintball facility still being built that will be located on Highway 380 and Loop 288. Wallace said the opening of the facility will help tremendously, as the team travels 30-45 minutes for each practice. UNT also works with the Melanie Goodwin Foundation in the Fun for the Fund Paintball Tournament to raise money for the nonprofit organization. Wallace said the club isn’t a bunch of guys that go out in the woods and play for fun. “We try to make it so it’s not seen as people going out and shooting stuff up,” Wallace said. “We try to promote it in a decent light.”
Two UNT students know better than anyone that sometimes when you play with fire, you get burned. Eric Arnold and Chase Dugger practice the art of fire poi, where tennis balls are attached to the end of chains or a flexible string, lit on fire and swung in circular patterns. “It’s kind of like meditation,” said Dugger, an undeclared sophomore. “It’s relaxing. You just get lost in the movements and paint the sky.” Dugger first saw poi done with glow sticks when he was a senior in high school and began practicing the next day. When he found out it could be done with fire, that became his goal, he said. Dugger later taught Arnold, a political science freshman, how to spin fire. He started him off with glow sticks and tennis balls. The two of them practice on a regular basis at the Ridge of North Texas or Iconic Village apartments, Arnold said. “I was addicted to it. I couldn’t put them down — like a kid with a new toy, except for I never put them down for a year and a half,” Arnold said. Before the balls are lit, Arnold and Dugger dip them in kerosene. They always carry a fire extinguisher for precautionary measures, Arnold said. Brent Garner, a radio, television and film junior, asked the men to perform at a New Year’s party for about 100 guests. “It was a huge hit. Everyone was pretty amazed by it and people got pretty involved,” Garner said. Garner said a couple people tried the art form, and while

No one was injured.” Assistant Fire Marshall Chad Weldon said they might be in violation of the law, because performances involving open flames usually require a permit. “It may be that what they’re doing is legal, but I can’t say without seeing what they’re doing,” Weldon said.

For Ben Glasthal, this month will be a little more than a frenzied mess of dialogue, set directions and all-nighters. Glasthal, a radio, television and film junior, is one of 17, 876 people taking part in ScriptFrenzy, an international writing event held during the month of April. “You feel like everything is working against your goal of 100 pages a month,” Glasthal said. “It becomes difficult to complete it unless you’ve got a good start on it.” His favorite part of the event is the sense of community found online, he said. Finding time to focus on his script, however, can be a challenge. The Frenzy Participants take on the challenge of writing 100 pages of scripted material in one month, according to scriptfrenzy.org. Like its November counterpart National Novel Writing Month, or NaNoWriMo, the event is free for all to join. This is Glasthal’s third year participating in ScriptFrenzy, he said. Glasthal said he first learned about the event while searching
online for screenplay writing opportunities. ScriptFrenzy allows him to work on something film-related despite the fact that he’s in school, he said. Being a part of ScriptFrenzy has improved his writing skills and character development, he said. “Find the time to write, and sit
“ ... You need to write about something you care about.”
—Andrew Harris, Dance and theatre professor down and write an idea that you love,” Glasthal said. “Once you have that, you can worry about formatting later. Worry about the story.” The art of scriptwriting Matthew Solomon, a theatre arts senior, is not participating in ScriptFrenzy but writes scripts on his own time. Like Glasthal, Solomon said devoting time to writing is difficult when you’re a student.
Being creative and starting the story is another challenge scriptwriters may face, he said. “One of the hardest things is coming up with something you think is original and the constant fear of if it’s good,” Solomon said. Andrew Harris of the dance and theatre faculty described scriptwriting as a labor of love. He said he has written about 15 plays and is currently working on two others. The work that goes into creating a script is worth it, and Harris encourages others to try it out, he said. “Go for it. It’s worth a gamble,” Harris said. “Most important, you need to write about something you care about.” Challenging yourself Glasthal said UNT students should check out ScriptFrenzy because it’s a good way to focus on something besides school. “ScriptFrenzy has been a really great outlet for me to release stress from school, because it allows me to think,” Glasthal said. “If you like writing, it’s something you should definitely challenge yourself with.” For more information, visit www.scriptfrenzy.org.

fire extinguisher nearby and keep combustible materials away. “To keep safe, my recommendation would be to check with the local authorities and to make sure you’re doing it in a safe area that is permitted,” Weldon said. Arnold said they didn’t know how legal fire poi was, but would look into it. Brittani Darlington, a pre-arts and sciences sophomore, said she has seen the art form and thinks it is beautiful. “It’s definitely exhilarating. It’s something I would love to be able to do,” she said.

Inner appearance matters most
Nods and Shakes Editorial Nod: Philanthropies make a difference this week Philanthropy efforts are thriving on campus this semester, but especially this week. The students participating in Shack-a-Thon and those who took part in A Day Without Shoes made a difference, if only a small one. Shack-a-Thon is a fun event that many groups around campus, including housing associations and greek organizations, participate in annually. Members of the organizations build cardboard structures, have one member inside it at all times and ask for donations from passers-by. The money they collect is given to the local Habitat for Humanity. A Day Without Shoes is more of a symbolic event of which people spend a day barefoot to try to increase awareness in situations where children have to go without shoes involuntarily. Both are simple ways to assist people who are less fortunate. Shake: Former SGA president oversteps boundaries A Facebook message went out to about 4,000 people Monday from a group called “The University of North Texas” detailing the steps for voting in the Student Government Association elections and endorsing one pair of candidates. The message came from alumnus Jeff Kline, a former SGA president and the creator of that unofficial group. The Board believes Kline’s actions were not appropriate. Personal endorsements by previous SGA members are acceptable and expected. Using a Facebook group that appears to be an official branch of UNT at first glance and that is run by current and past members of the student government goes too far. Kline’s message made it look like the university endorses a candidate. It was a bad decision on his part. Nod: UNT appeals to multitude of prospective students About 4,000 potential students and parents came to UNT last weekend to explore the campus and learn more about the opportunities here. The number of people who preregistered exceeded the past amounts. This shows UNT’s reputation is improving. The Editorial Board is pleased that more people are considering UNT. We hope the students and their parents had a good experience and that the reputation of UNT will only continue to go up. Shake: Airplane issues cause concern A Southwest Airlines plane had a five-foot-long hole develop in the air Friday. Since then, five of the 79 airplanes that were checked for damage had cracks. More than 300 flights were canceled because of the problems. Considering how dangerous flying can be and the high cost of air travel, Southwest and all other airline companies should keep their planes in the best condition possible through things like up-to-date, thorough inspections. The Board is glad no one was injured, but there shouldn’t have been a possibility. Shake: Confusing journalism with theatre As the sole candidate on the ballot for the Mayborn School of Journalism, Meg Ziegelbein mentioned nothing about journalism throughout her platform. Instead, she focused on fixing what she deemed to be a “subpar” theatre department. We don’t even know what else to say about that.

TALK
A current issue of our society is the obsession with appearances. Our culture is constantly bombarded with ads for hair dye, magazines with tips on how to reveal “natural beauty” and weight loss ads that promise results in two weeks. In a society so obsessed with looks, it’s almost impossible to go through life never having the desire to conform to the idea of what beautiful looks like. Photoshopped models are seen everywhere from styling clothes to leaning seductively on the hoods of expensive cars. The primary intent of advertisers is to create the idea in people’s heads that if they have this product, they will be this beautiful or attract people this beautiful. The problem with culture’s idea of beauty is that it’s unattainable, unrealistic and sometimes even dangerous. Models seen in advertisements are commonly thin, sometimes at a weight that is extremely unhealthy. The targeted audience of most of this advertising is women, who tend to receive pressure to be beautiful. Because of
this, many girls will do anything to conform to culture’s standards. Most young girls learn these lessons of beauty from Barbie. “Jill Barad, president of Mattel (which manufactures Barbie) estimated that 99 percent of girls aged 3 to 10 years old own at least one Barbie doll,” according to media-awareness.ca.
is the key to happiness. People think all of their problems will be solved if they were beautiful. Fad diets, eating disorders and cosmetic plastic surgery have become increasingly popular as this belief has developed. One in every four college-aged women use unhealthy weight control methods, according to
“One in every four collegeaged women use unhealthy weight control methods.” Little do young girls know, Barbie’s miniscule figure is entirely unattainable in real life. Her back would not be able to support her upper body, and her body would not have enough room to contain her vital organs. Little girls see Barbie as the definition of happy. She’s beautiful, thin and always has a perfect plastic smile across her face. Women of all ages are led to believe that having a perfect body
Anorexia Nervosa and Related Eating Disorders, Inc. Although the media are common predators for insecure women, they are not completely responsible for these dangerous trends. Even as children, we are able to detect differences among our peers. Those who are different or “weird” are treated harshly with hateful glances or name calling, and sometimes they are even ostracized. In this day and age, it’s
nearly impossible to be different without receiving some sort of unfavorable response. Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs says people need to feel accepted and loved. It is fear that motivates them to act on the impulse to change themselves. People are so afraid to be different. The sad thing is the people so heavily discriminated against are usually no different on the inside than the people bullying them. Ultimately we are not all that different — we all desire to be beautiful and accepted. Leo Tolstoy once said, “It is amazing how complete is the delusion that beauty is goodness.” This describes our society because those seen as beautiful are often so broken and corrupted on the inside. If the world put as much into improving what’s inside as they did on outside appearance, the world would be a much better and happier place. Lauren Frock is a journalism freshman.

Expensive headphones leave student unimpressed When I walk around campus and see someone flaunting their massive, tacky, $300 piece of cheap plastic, it amuses me greatly. Not just because they’re hideous and the company plasters their logo on every inch of the headphones, but also because the few people I’ve met who wear their Beats by Dr. Dre headphones around their neck think this grants them exclusive privileges to snob everyone with how great their headphones are in comparison to how terrible everyone else’s are. That, usually, isn’t true. They are a fashion statement, and that’s it. There’s nothing better than reading a review like I did on one kid’s blog about how “if you are cool enough, these headphones will certainly boost your cool further.” All I can say is that if you are paying $300 to get the people walking around campus to find
you “cool,” or you think that these headphones will get the opposite sex fawning over you, then you have some serious issues. The same could be said for Skullcandy headphones — they’re cheaper, but they’re hideous and don’t grant you entry into this mythical cool headphone club. The $80 you spent on them could have easily been spent on headphones that aren’t ripped to shreds by nearly every critic for their awful sound and reliability. Cheaper, better alternatives My favorite thing to do when someone is talking about how great their Beats headphones is let them listen to mine. Because they insist on rubbing their headphones in my face, sometimes I feel it necessary to rub my much cheaper headphones in theirs. The few times I’ve tried this, the responses amuse me greatly. “Whoa, these are amazing.” “These sound great! How
much were they?” “Man, I need some of these.” Well, let’s see, out of my collection, my Grado headphones were $80. My Sennheisers were $50. With the exception of my Bose headphones, the few times I’ve stepped into the expensive, mainstream headphones, I’ve been let down by reliability or the sound. An audiophile’s opinion I’m a self-confessed audiophile, so my audio standards are pretty high. But trying to impress with your $300 headphones certainly isn’t going to impress me, or from my experience, most people. If you genuinely like the sound of the Dr. Dre or the Skullcandy and didn’t drop your rent payment on a fashion statement, then I’ll apologize. However, if you boug ht them to impress, you definitely are not impressive, and they
don’t make you cool hanging around your neck. Instead, when you walk by, I’ll shake my head at your failure to properly maintain a bank account.

Taking school to the next level BY JOEL HOOD MCT
NEW YORK — Rock music blares in a Manhattan classroom as an 11-year-old builds a website for video game enthusiasts, and a classmate fuses LED lights and capacitors to a circuit board. In another room, students are immersed in a life-sized video game as they kneel beside a virtual river, sifting through the remains of ancient civilizations. What kid wouldn’t love a school developed by video game designers? Quest to Learn was designed to be different from the ground up. This complete reinvention of the typical urban middle school downplays rote memorization in favor of collaborative learning, critical thinking and imaginative exploration as a way to change how
today’s students learn. And this fall, it’s going to Chicago. Students will learn from video game designers and computer experts how to design and build their own video games, produce custom websites, podcast, blog, record and edit short films, and connect with technology in a way that is both meaningful and productive. In an era of rigid standardized testing, city leaders say Quest is a novel approach to get today’s wired 11-, 12- and 13-year-olds prepared for the technology-driven, global job market that awaits them. “The only way we’re going to catch up with the rest of the world is to re-invent how teaching and learning occurs,” said Chicago Public Schools interim chief Terry Mazany. “That’s why this is so vital.”
