Music fans gather at Zilker Park for the Austin City Limits Music Festival in Austin, Texas, on Friday.

ACL brings powerful music Jim Lehrer offers media experience

By LAUREN SMART

Arts &Entertainment Editor lsmart@smu.edu

Austin City Limits (ACL) is a place for music lovers.

People don’t go to a festival with five headliners and more than forty bands per day if they just want to hear one artist. For some, it is an educational experience: a chance to listen to bands you’ve heard very little about. For others, it is about getting really close up and singing along with their favorite band.

Whatever the reason for attending ACL, more than 52,000 people headed to Zilker Park in Austin, Texas

last weekend for one of the biggest concerts in the country.

There were many ups and downs through the weekend. There were surprises, and there were disappointments, as always when musicians perform live. Each of the headliners performed with a skilled, energetic presence, but throughout the days, there were moments worth acknowledging, applauding and pointing a judgmental finger.

Best all-around concert: This designation will go to a headliner, and as such, will go to The Strokes. Perhaps it is because they make their fans hungry for their music,

as we have to wait four years between albums and tours, but regardless, they are good performers. They play their songs without fault, they have smart quips and PacMan is part of their light show.

Surprise of the weekend: A band that I’d never heard of that was able to immediately capture my allegiance was Those Darlins, a mixture of country, punk and rock with a whole lot of sass. From “Let’s Talk Dirty in Hawaiian” to “Wild One,” their wide range of sound is a lot of fun.

An SMU student had one last question for Jim Lehrer after his first speech in 1963.

“When you sit down at your typewriter to write a story for the Dallas Times Herald, who do you see as your reader?”

The life lessons of a long-time journalist, or a newspaperman as Lehrer calls himself, were the subject of his talk on the evening

of Oct. 6 as part of the 11th Annual Rosine Smith Sammons Media Ethics Lecture Series.

In print and broadcast, Lehrer talks to an individual: he sees a face - and that idea began for him here at SMU. Caruth Auditorium was filled with journalism students, professors, Dallas community members and members of the Sammons family —all eager to hear from the man whom Tony Pederson, Chair of the

Mustangs keep out Hurricane, 21-18

By EJ HOLLAND

Associate Sports Editor eholland@smu.edu

In what was hyped to be a highscoring affair, the SMU Mustangs (42, 3-0) did not light up the scoreboard but managed to pull out a 21-18 victory over the Tulsa Golden Hurricane (33, 1-2), Friday night at Gerald J. Ford Stadium.

“We are proud of the kids for playing as hard as they played,” SMU head Coach June Jones said. “There were some times I began to wonder if we were going to pull away, but the kids found a way to win.”

The Mustangs are off to their best start since 1986, which was the last time SMU started 3-0 in Conference USA play.

Jones believes the triumphant start is quite exciting.

The Mustangs had to work hard to accomplish that feat after Tulsa got off to a hot start in the first quarter.

On the Golden Hurricane’s opening possession, quarterback G.J.

Kinne engineered a 47-yard drive, which he capped off with a six-yard touchdown run.

Kinne’s score gave Tulsa a 7-0 lead less than five minutes into the game.

The Golden Hurricane looked like they were going to put points on the board with a 45-yard field goal, but SMU defensive end Margus Hunt recorded his third blocked field goal of the year and ninth blocked kick of his career to prevent the score.

“It’s the guys believing they have a chance to block every kick,” Jones said. “Even though Margus [Hunt] is certainly powerful and has great range, the guys around him are putting pressure on the players to get Margus [Hunt] to have the movement to get through, so it’s a team deal and it’s pretty amazing.”

The Mustang offense fed off the momentum as quarterback Kyle Padron hit wide receiver Cole Beasley on two big plays before finding wide

Fall brings menswear, fur

By DARBY RADCLIFF Style Intern dradcliff@smu.edu Fall is here, and now is the time to try out the season’s biggest trends!

As seen on the runways in early February, fall’s biggest trends are all about being bold and showing off your fearless side in fashion.

The trends we’re seeing this fall are fierce fur, matching hues of color, menswear-inspired looks, and major layering of knits and cashmere.

The fur fad is all about making fur your main staple in your closet for fall!

Whether you’re wearing a fur coat, or just have fur trimming on your shoes, fur is brings a sense of elegance and glamour into your ensemble, but also adds a little edge to your look.

In regards to fur, the talented Joseph Altuzarra said backstage that “He wanted to explore the dichotomies between strength and fragility, modern reality and fairy tales,” and in doing so, he sent out a fearless collection of ensembles made with goat fur.

These looks had a glam-rock essence to them and came off as chic, but didn’t give off the feel that he had tried too hard.

Another huge look for fall is matching hues. This is all about being confident enough to make a statement and wear two shades of the same hue that compliment each

other.

Designer Zac Posen debuted the matching hue trend by designing an upbeat collection that had matching hues of camel, blues, grays and fierce reds.

This head-to-toe look of matching shades of color adds a versatile sense to your look and is complimentary, rather than appearing like you went overboard with one shade of a color.

The menswear-inspired trend is all about making a bold statement and carrying on the minimalistic trend that was debuted for the spring 2010 shows.

Whether you’re wearing a men’s blazer or cropped men’s pants, this trend is about being fearless and feeling comfortable enough in your own skin to don a menswearinspired look.

Talented designer Alexander Wang made this menswear-inspired trend the focus of his collection.

Wang’s fall 2010 collection focus was “Wall Street’s Masters of the Universe,” and he said his collection was about being “more sophisticated, more polished.”

Indeed, his trimmed trousers and tailored coats and vests gave off a polished look, while also dauntless on the models wearing them.

The fourth biggest trend for fall 2010 is the layering look. The designers’ motto for this look was “more is more.” They piled on

layers of garments to creat an air that looked effortlessly chic, as well as cozy for the upcoming winter.

The designers of Rag & Bone, David Neville and Marcus Wainwright debuted their fall collection, inspired by “crazy English guys who climbed Mount Everest in the twenties in tweed,” they stated backstage.

This inspiration was taken in the sense that they wanted to pile on the layers, but give it a chic, urban feel.

They debuted looks with scarves piled on a waistcoat, which was piled on a plaid shirt worn with a kilt.

These looks were about having a careless downtown feel, while also showing your boldness in fashion.

The fad will give people the chance to be individuals and not worry too much about being perfectly matched, but being able to choose what they want to layer on in their look.

With these four top fall trends, it is important to know that you should not get lost in the trends or try to imitate them, but instead make them your own and show off who you are as an individual.

‘Jackass’ cast talks 3D with The Daily Campus

By MICHAEL DANSER Photo Editor mdanser@smu.edu

The series that has entertained and inspired millions of adolescents and 20-somethings has brought another round of audacity to screens, this time in the 3D format.

Paramount’s controversial franchise, “Jackass,” premiered “Jackass 3D” this past weekend in Los Angeles.

The Daily Campus sat down in L.A. with the director and cast in a roundtable discussion with college journalists from across the nation.

Co-creator and helm of the Jackass franchise, Jeff Tremaine, was on site to discuss the making of the third movie.

According to Tremaine, Paramount Pictures took a big step in switching a bulk of the camera work to 3D coverage, a trend that has soared in popularity in the past year since the release of James Cameron’s “Avatar.”

“Paramount suggested that we shoot it in 3D, and we were resistant at first,” Tremaine said, “because, the way we do things, we’re a real run-and-gun crew and to get these big 3D cameras and the extra people that come with all that just scared us.”

Tremaine and his team completed several tests with their documentary style of filmmaking using the 3D rigs and found that the cast members performed to par as in their previous films.

Johnny Knoxville, creator and star of the “Jackass” series, said, “I was the last person to be converted,” when asked about the 3D switch.

“I just thought it would change the way we shot. I thought it [filming] would take a long time,” he said. “It would just change the movie, and I’m not up for that,” Knoxville said After seeing tests with the handheld

3D camera rigs, Knoxville signed off on the process and filming ensued.

When asked if the 3D filming process prohibited some stunts to be accomplished, Tremaine said, “No, we were always ready to drop the 3D cameras and go shoot with run and gun cameras.”

Several portions of the movie were shot on consumer grade 2D video

“

It’s not a cartoon, you know? Like [James] Cameron.

Chris Pontius Actor

”

cameras, including any hidden camera work needed for pranks and jokes.

Actor Chris Pontius liked the 3D idea from the beginning.

You might remember Pontius from “Jackass 2,” where he dressed his genitalia like a mouse and stuck it in a snake’s cage.

“This technology is evolving,” Pontius said. “The stuff we tested for the conversion was a lot better than it would have been months before.”

The cast and Tremaine made sure to stress that this movie is the first 3D film ever to be released that is 100 percent live-action, with no computergenerated imaging.

“It’s hard because it’s real. No one’s done it where it’s all real,” Tremaine said. “Anything that’s flying at the lens, that’s flying at a really expensive lens.

And, like, when we do it, it hits it.”

“It’s not a cartoon, you know? Like [James] Cameron,” Pontius made sure to interject.

If you enjoyed the TV series or the first two films, the third installment will not disappoint your craving to watch Knoxville, Bam, Weeman and more go to ridiculous extremes for

entertainment and humor.

Be prepared for a variety of grotesque bodily fluids and sexuallythemed entities to fly out at you. The 3D scenes are done well, immersing the audience within the ever-shocking “Jackass” world. “Jackass 3D” opens nationwide on Friday.

ACL: Crowds filled Zilker Park CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1

Disappointment of the weekend: My dissatisfaction is given to the Black Lips. Although I am not familiar with all of their songs, the few that I know, I like. There are bands that push boundaries with their skill, and there are bands who push the boundaries of their fans’ patience. Unfortunately, the latter limits were tested Saturday, and I joined the line of people leaving their stage.

Most energetic concert: Hands down, this goes to Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros. The leader of this group of unhinged hippies, Alex Ebert, is one of the most eccentric and unrestrained performers to take the stage this weekend.

He ran around on stage, jumped around, told improvised stories and did his version of crowd surfing, which was diving across the photo pit and rolling around on top of the crowd. Their music made the audience dance and sing along with a cathartic lack of inhibitions.

Most solid performance: This is a tie between the two super-groups that took the stage Saturday. Broken Bells and Monsters of Folk are two groups comprised of stars of the indie music scene, either from other bands or solo acts. Broken Bells includes James Mercer from The Shins and Brian Burton, also known as Danger Mouse. Monsters of Folk includes Conor Oberst and Mike Mogis from Bright Eyes, Jim James from My Morning Jacket and M. Ward. The idea behind these groups is that they could come together as an even more powerful group – and boy, were they right. These performances packed talent, energy and stage presence at the same time.

Most enthusiastic audience: Deadmau5 may look like a giant rodent on stage, but the way he spins his house music, grinding out the

electronic beats, not only drew the biggest audience that the Zync Card stage saw all weekend, but kept everyone dancing as well. Even mothers with their children were breaking off into what people were calling “dance zones.”

Best moment in a concert: Devendra Banhart and the Grogs played a solid show, even for playing early in the day. After playing some of their own work, they looked out at the audience and asked if anyone had a song they had written recently and would like to play. A young man was pulled up onto the stage in an overwhelming awe, and after he was done playing, Banhart pulled him in eye-to-eye in some sort of cosmic exchange of energy.

Best light show: This would be a win for The Flaming Lips, except that when they played Sunday night, the sun was still shining. Because of this, MIA will take the prize as her light show attracted even more attention than the bold hip-hop star. There were videos of her, graphics, lights and just an all-around spectacle.

Best Cover: This is a tie between Broken Bells’ cover of The Black Keys’ “Everlasting Light” and Band of Horses cover of Cee Lo Green’s “Georgia.” Both of these covers not only felt completely natural, falling perfectly into the vocal and musical range of the band, but in the case of Broken Bells, it sounded better than the original. Both bands covered songs of their contemporaries, and both were met with extreme enthusiasm from the audience.

Although Band of Horses was obviously nodding at the fact that Green recently covered their song, “No One’s Gonna Love You.”

LEHRER: News Hour chief speaks on media experience

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1

Journalism Division of the Meadows School of the Arts, described as “one of the most distinguished voices of journalism.”

Lehrer, the executive editor and anchor of “The News Hour” on PBS, held the attention of the entire audience, telling stories from his personal experiences in the field of journalism.

He spoke of covering the Watergate hearings, having an upclose and personal connection with the assassination of President John F. Kennedy and interviewing Martin Luther King, Jr. Lehrer also shared his beliefs on the code of ethics in journalism and what he feels is a journalist’s main function.

“Journalism isn’t about the truth.

It’s about gathering facts,” Lehrer said.

“If you wait until you have the whole truth, you’ll never go to press or go on the air. The truth is much deeper than the facts.”

He knows from personal experience how that foundation can be shaken.

While writing for The Dallas Morning News, Lehrer spent three months working on an expose of civil defense.

Even though all of the facts were correct, the editor would not run the

story because it could hurt a friend of the publisher. Lehrer then quit over this conflict in principles of ethics.

“I learned a lesson that I’ve carried with me ever since,” said Lehrer, who was immediately hired by the Dallas Times Herald, The Dallas Morning News’ competition.

“That was an impetuous thing to do, but I would do it all over again,” he said.

Students attending the speech were able to listen to Lehrer’s many years of experience in the industry, taking his advice for a more ethical approach to journalism.

“I thought it was very interesting,” sophomore journalism major, Chandler Schlegel, said of the Sammons lecture.

“His dedication to journalism ethics before getting a story out there is inspirational and unheard of.”

However, a long-term journalism career was not always Lehrer’s dream. As a 16-year-old boy growing up in Beaumont, Texas, Lehrer saw himself growing up to be a professional baseball player.

His coach, however, suggested that he find an alternate career path.

His fate was sealed when he turned in a paper to his English teacher who wrote across the top, “Jimmy, you’re a very good writer.”

“Thank God I gave up baseball,” Lehrer said about his career.

After the baseball plan fell through, Lehrer spent three years in the Marine Corps. Afterward, he worked for both The Dallas Morning News and the Dallas Times Herald before switching over to television where he worked for KERA-TV, the Dallas PBS station.

He has since moved to Washington to work for PBS. The Sammons Media Ethics Lecture Series is funded by the Rosine Foundation Fund of Communities Foundation of Texas, which is recommended by the Mary Anne Sammons Cree of Dallas.

The series is named in honor of her mother, an early graduate of the journalism program at SMU. The stories Lehrer shared from the course of his career demonstrate the changing times in media, particularly the growing ethical questions as media continues to expand.

But Lehrer tried to leave the room that was partially filled with aspiring journalists with some hope.

“I may be the only optimist left,” Lehrer said. “I really do buy into what Thomas Jefferson said. We have to have an informed electorate, and the only way is the free press.”

MEN’S SOCCER

SMU downs Marshall, 2-1, in OT

BY EJ HOLLAND

Associate Sports Editor eholland@smu.edu

The No. 8 SMU men’s soccer team defeated Conference USA foe Marshall 2-1 in overtime Sunday night at Westcott Field to move to 11-1-0 in the season and 3-1 in Conference USA action.

“It was a tough one,” SMU head coach Tim McClements said. “We feel very fortunate to come away with the victory. We played very hard, but so did Marshall, and it’s just a typical conference game.”

Freshman forward Juan Castillo began the scoring with his team-leading eighth goal of the season in the 25th minute. Junior midfielder Arthur Ivo dished the ball to Castillo who blasted a shot from 20 yards out into the far upper 90.

The Marshall Thundering Herd responded with a goal of their own in the 40th minute. Forward Tom Jackson

launched the ball into the goal box on a throw-in, and midfielder Diego Ayala connected on a header into the goal for the equalizer, tying the game at 1-1 heading into halftime.

“Marshall — give our hat off to them — because they put in a really good shift,” McClements said. “They scored a goal on a set piece, a throw in, that we’d been working all week to prevent.”

The second half saw both teams trying to take control of the game and score the go-ahead goal, but neither could do so.

SMU senior defender Leone Cruz received his second yellow card of the match in the 80th minute, forcing a red card which left the Mustangs down a man for the final 15 minutes of the game. Cruz picked up his first yellow card in the 31st minute and will have to sit out of SMU’s next game.

Marshall took advantage of SMU, playing with only 10 men, as midfielder

”

Mat Butler fired a shot on the goal just five minutes later, but Mustang goalkeeper Craig Hill batted the ball over the crossbar to preserve the tie and force overtime. Hill finished the night with five saves for the Mustangs.

“We got a guy [Cruz] red-carded, and it just shows our persistence and our depth, being able to play a man

the ball to Barnes, who headed in the ball for the win. The goal was Barnes’ fourth of the season and second gamewinner.

“It was a great service, and he [Barnes] worked so hard and deserved the goal,” McClements said. “We’re happy for him and the whole team.”

SMU will host No. 5 Tulsa on Oct. 20 at 7 p.m. in an epic Conference USA battle at Westcott Field.

“The drama of playing Tulsa will take care of itself,” McClements said.

“It’s going to be a barnburner, and we’re really excited to play them.”

receiver Darius Johnson on a 22 yard scoring strike. The touchdown tied the game at 7-7 heading into the second quarter.

Beasley once again played a big role in the Mustangs’ next scoring drive.

The junior snagged Padron a pass by the sideline and cut back to the middle of the field and outran all of the Tulsa defenders before diving into the end zone for an electrifying 32 yard touchdown that gave SMU a 14-7 lead late in the second quarter.

The Mustangs began the second half with a 53 yard bomb from Padron to wide receiver Aldrick Robinson to set up SMU in perfect scoring position.

Padron then connected with wide receiver Bradley Haynes on a 14 yard touchdown pass to extend the SMU lead 21-7.

But the Golden Hurricane would make a comeback.

On the ensuing drive, Tulsa kicker Kevin Fitzpatrick booted a 30-yard field goal to knife into the Mustang lead.

Fitzpatrick looked like he was going to add another field goal early in the fourth quarter, but SMU defensive end Kevin Grenier blocked his second kick of the year to preserve the 21-10 Mustang lead.

When the Tulsa offense got the ball back, Kinne once again called his own number and sprinted into the end zone from three yards out.

Kinne then found running back Charles Clay in the end zone from two yards out for the two point conversion, making the score 21-18.

The Mustangs got the ball back and never surrendered possession.

SMU took over six minutes off the clock, which allowed the final whistle to sound as the Mustangs held on for the victory.

“We had a couple of big plays in the passing game, and Zach Line had

a couple of good runs as well,” Padron said. “The offensive line did a great job for six minutes, and they really killed [Tulsa’s] will, and we came out on top.”

Padron completed 27 of 40 passes for 381 yards and three touchdowns on the night.

Both Robinson (5 rec. 118 yards) and Johnson (8 rec. 102 yards 1 td) surpassed the 100 yard receiving mark, and Beasley added seven receptions for 91 yards and one touchdown. Line contributed 92 yards on the ground.

SMU will travel to Annapolis, MD to take on the Navy Midshipmen in a non-conference battle Saturday at 2:30 p.m.

“We are continuing and progressing on the goal that we want to be at when the season ends,” said linebacker Pete Fleps who led the Mustangs with 10 tackles. “We are taking it one game at a time, and we have a tough test coming up against Navy, but we are on our way.”
