Gino’s closure secures future for Kabul

Grey Satterfield/the daily cardinal

Peter Gargano, Gino’s nephew and employee, said after 50 years in the business, Gino plans to spend his retirement enjoying wine country and Floridian weather.

The end of a 50-year-old State Street dining tradition will secure the future of another highly regarded State Street staple. Gino Gargano, owner of Gino’s Italian Eatery, announced Thursday he will retire and close the restaurant he first opened July 5, 1963, after emigrating to America from Sicily. Gino’s last day will be Oct. 31. Although Gino’s cuisine will be missed, Kabul owner Hamed Zafari, whose Afghani-Mediterranean restaurant risked forced closure due to a housing development on the 500 block of State Street, said he secured a lease to move into the second floor space at 540 State St., where Gino’s currently resides. Zafari said he is “relieved” to have finally found a place and expects to reopen in the new location sometime in January.

“We looked at every possibility, and I just feel like we get a lot of the people who come from the university,” Zafari said. “That is, faculty and employees from the university. Also students, so we felt like we wanted to stay in the 500 block of State Street; we thought it was important.” Gino’s nephew and employee Peter Gargano said his uncle made the decision to close the restaurant upon his retirement because there was “no one next in line” to take over the business. Ald. Mike Verveer, District 4, congratulated Gino on his “well-deserved retirement” but said it will be as much a personal loss for him as it will be to the community. “It’s been a part of the State Street fabric for decades and decades,” Verveer said. “I enjoyed many a meal there, going back to when I was a UW freshman.” —Melissa Howison

SSFC approves funding for student tutoring service Members to vote on Sex Out Loud funding next week An Associated Students of Madison financial committee approved General Student Services Fund funding for Greater University Tutoring Service in a near-unanimous vote at a meeting Thursday. GUTS is a volunteer student organization that provides free tutoring services to all University of Wisconsin-Madison students. According to the GUTS website, the organization assists with academic courses, conversational English and intercultural exchange.

GSSF groups must undergo eligibility hearings every two years and demonstrate their ability to provide direct services to students, which are educational benefits available and customizable to the needs of any UW-Madison student. After a brief debate in which many Student Services Finance Committee members said they thought GUTS “clearly” met the eligibility requirements, members of SSFC voted unanimously, with one abstention, to grant GSSF funding to GUTS. “There was honestly just a general consensus,” Vines said. Following GUTS approval, Sex Out Loud applied for GSSF funding eligibility, stating the

The university is attempting to end the Internet sale of fake Bucky Badger suits similar to the official mascot’s costume, which an individual has been wearing near the Capitol protests.

UW professor serves on federal election commission under Obama

Bucky imitator at Capitol protests generates controversy with UW

University of WisconsinMadison political science professor Barry Burden will testify at a commission meeting in Cincinnati, Ohio, Sept. 20 regarding his research under a bipartisan presidential commission exploring how to improve federal elections. The Presidential Commission on Election Administration was officially established in March and studies federal elections. The commission will provide advice to Obama as early as December about how to develop areas such as absentee ballot programs and accessibility to oversees voters. The formation of the commis-

Not all Bucky Badgers are created equal. A knockoff of the University of Wisconsin-Madison’s licensed Bucky Badger was spotted at the state Capitol building alongside the protesting group, the Solidarity Singers. UW-Madison issued a press release Thursday warning students to “know your badger.” They cautioned the phony one has puffy features, odd coloring and a sloppy sweater that could disappoint Badger fans. Cindy Van Matre, the Trademark Licensing Director for the university, said the uni-

SSFC page 3

sion is a response to voting complications reported during the November 2012 presidential election, when voters waited in line for up to six hours in some locations to cast ballots, according to the release. Burden has already authored two papers for the commission, on absentee voting by mail and early voting, as well as on poll workers, according to the release. “It’s exciting, frankly, to have your scholarship seriously considered by a commission that will make recommendations to the President of the United States,” he said in the release.

versity has received inquiries from people asking why Bucky Badger is participating at events at the Capitol building. “It looks like it’s the university that is supporting the cause, and we’re not taking a stance at all,” Van Matre said. According to the release, Badger costumes like the one turning up at the Capitol have been spotted for sale online. On Thursday, UW-Madison took action to end sales by the unauthorized seller of the uniforms. There are approximately seven students who dress up

as Bucky for various university and athletic functions, community events, parades, pep rallies and other public and private occasions. Each spring, rounds of tryouts are held for the half dozen people selected to perform at the sporting events and other gatherings, including doing the celebrated pushups for every point scored at football games. Van Matre said she is unsure if any further action will be taken by the university to find and stop the person in the fake Bucky costume. —Megan Stoebig

“…the great state University of Wisconsin should ever encourage that continual and fearless sifting and winnowing by which alone the truth can be found.”

Miley Cyrus contracted lead poisoning from the sledge hammer she was provocatively licking and the wrecking ball she was swinging around on naked while ﬁlming her new music video for the hit song “Wrecking Ball.” Experts believe that the video, ﬁlmed roughly eight months ago, may have a direct correlation to Cyrus’ performance at the VMAs this year. Lead poisoning has been linked to several serious behavioral disorders along with many other health issues. “The lead may have been the cause of her erratic behavior,” said Dr. Dan Gleazac, an expert on the effects of heavy metals on the human body.

Cyrus, with sledgehammer in hand, addressed the media this Tuesday saying, “I love the person the lead has allowed me to become. It’s opened up my mind; it’s taken my performance to the next level. You know, they say Vincent van Gogh had lead poisoning, and I’m told his art is pretty good.” Jay Spin, the director of “Wrecking Ball,” has recently come out saying he feels somewhat responsible for Cyrus’ illness. “In hindsight, I regret shooting the sledgehammer licking scene 78 times. I got caught up in the moment. As a music video director, you’ve got to get a sledgehammer fellatio scene just right, and I was just not satisﬁed with the ﬁrst 77 takes,” Spin said. Loyal fans are standing by Cyrus in her decision to not seek any medical treatment. They are

in agreement that the heavy metal in her body is making her an even more powerful force to be reckoned with in the music industry.

“I love the person lead has allowed me to become. It’s opened up my mind...” Miley Cyrus Currently, there are unconﬁrmed reports surfacing that Cyrus has cut off her ear and sent it to her ex-boyfriend, Liam Hemsworth.

Cobb out three to five business days with fractured visor By Kane Kaiman Fake News Friday

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Randall Cobb will miss three to ﬁve days of football after fracturing his visor during practice drills Tuesday afternoon. According to team sources, the incident occurred after a routine collision with Packers safety Jerron McMillian and initially went unnoticed. “I got up, felt ﬁne, and went back to the huddle. But when I got there, all the guys were just looking at me like my head was missing. I had no idea what was going on, and then Aaron [Rodgers] started screaming for the trainer.” Medical inspection of Cobb’s visor revealed two hairline fractures in the lower

right medial area. “I just looked at the helmet and shook my head. I knew I was done,” Cobb said. “It’s just a minor fracture, not a complete break. Still, you can’t risk going out there and playing with something like this,” Packers head trainer Pepper Burruss told Cardinal reporters. Packers General Manager Ted Thompson, famous for his penny-pinching, conﬁrmed that Cobb could have been back as early as the next day, but said he opted for the dickssportinggoods. com Standard 3-5 Business Day shipping because of “the ridiculous cost of overnight delivery.” “It’s just not something we can afford in a contract year,” said Thompson.

Freshman not drunk, just stupid By Kerry Murphy Fake News Friday

University of WisconsinMadison freshman Stewart Miller was arrested and sent to detox at this past weekend’s football game after police spotted him mumbling along to “Build Me Up Buttercup.” Miller, the only individual at the game not singing along in perfect unison, appeared to be so highly intoxicated that Camp Randall officials decided upon an immediate arrest. After consenting to a breathalyzer test, it was revealed that Miller was completely sober. Officer Sam Robinson, who made the initial arrest, claims he was only trying to look out for the safety and

well being of the students when he tackled Miller to the ground, cuffed him and dragged him down the tunnel and into a holding cell. “In all my years as an officer, I’ve never seen a student unsure of the lyrics. There was no doubt in my mind that his cognitive function was dangerously impaired. He had to be put down hard.” The university has sided with Robinson. Chancellor Rebecca Blank said in a Monday interview, “Officer Robinson, who may have made the arrest for the wrong reasons, did the University of WisconsinMadison a valuable service.” Miller has issued an apology to the university and

learned the lyrics to “Build Me Up Buttercup,” “Sweet Caroline,” “Varsity,” “If You Want to be a Badger,” and “Jump Around.” He also now knows that “we want more beer.” Instead of a show-andblow, Miller is now required to recite all of these at the gate before being granted entry into the stadium. The administration is taking this matter very seriously and will introduce a new program at next year’s SOAR to ensure all incoming students are gameday ready. Miller’s final words to Cardinal reporters on the incident were, “If you want to be a Badger, then come along with me by the bright shining light of the sun. Got it.”

Bill could restrict public access to CCAP information Wisconsin citizens could see their access to previously public state legal records limited if a new bill introduced in the state Assembly were to pass. The bill, which aims to limit the public’s ability to use Wisconsin’s Consolidated Court Automation Programs program, is currently in the committee stage. CCAP allows the public to search legal proceedings that have been filed in state court using party

names, and then generates information regarding filed documents, decisions and final case outcomes. If the bill is signed into law, it will create two separate databases. One database would be available to the general public and contain limited information that only becomes available after a case has concluded. The other would resemble CCAP’s current form and would be available for professionals such as law

enforcement, journalists and real estate owners. The bill also requires any person who denies someone employment or tenancy because of information on CCAP to inform the denied individual of the reason for denial. State Rep. Evan Goyke, D-Milwaukee, authored the bill and has been joined by other state Democrats including Rep. Melissa Sargent, D-Madison. —Jack Casey

Tribes, legislators dispute Kenosha casino By Jack Casey the daily cardinal

Native American tribes from around the state clashed with a group of state legislators over the past two days regarding a proposed Kenosha area Menominee casino. The proposed casino has already received approval from the U.S. Department of the Interior and now faces an in-state conflict, spurred by Gov. Scott Walker’s ability to veto the construction using a power given to him under the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act of 1988. Menominee representatives have argued the casino would provide the cash-strapped tribe a steady source of income and also add jobs and tax revenue to the state’s economy.

Critics of the casino, including a new coalition of Democratic Milwaukee area state legislators, argue the casino would have a negative economic impact, causing Milwaukee and surrounding community businesses to lose workers to the casino. Walker said he would delay a decision on his veto until he had a consensus from the state’s 11 Native American tribes. The tribal consensus has proved tentative as the Potawatomi, who already operate a large casino in the nearby Milwaukee area, have expressed concerns a new casino would take their business. However, seven tribes joined the Menominee in signing a letter to Walker Thursday, urging him to support the casino development because it would “bring

millions of dollars in new revenue” and “create thousands of quality jobs.” The Potawatomi did not sign the tribal “consensus” letter. The “caucus” of Milwaukee legislators, which included state Senate Minority Leader Chris Larson, wrote their own letter to Walker Tuesday urging him to consider the “potentially devastating” negative economic implications the casino could cause. They specifically said the casino could lead to 3,000 lost Milwaukee-area jobs. The legislators also expressed their concern for the Potawatomi, who they said have been “a strong community partner in the Milwaukee region.” Walker’s office did not return phone calls requesting comment.

ASM Student Services Finance Committee Chair David Vines hears a presentation from Sex Out Loud.

SSFC from page 1 group provides direct services to students that are unique from services provided by the university. According to its website, Sex Out Loud is a peer-topeer sexual health resource for UW-Madison students that offers sex education programs, safer sex supplies and sexual health counseling and advising

services as well as other informational resources. Sex Out Loud facilitator Nicholas Fetzner said in the 20122013 fiscal year, Sex Out Loud hosted 77 workshops, 76 of which were presented to students who live in University Housing. “All of our services are planned, coordinated, and implemented to be for university students,” Fetzner said at the meeting. —Sarah Olson

Man spies into woman’s window A 25-year-old Madison man detained a sexual predator he caught peering into a woman’s window on the 200 block of North Blount Street early Thursday morning, according to a police report. The 25-year-old was on his way to visit his girlfriend at her apartment, and upon his arrival found 54-year-old David Whaley standing on his tip-toes, peering into a woman’s bedroom with his hands cupped around his eyes, according to the report. The woman Whaley was watching was the roommate of the 25-year-old’s girlfriend. When the boyfriend confronted Whaley, the prowler said “I’m sorry, I have a problem,” according to the report. The boyfriend took Whaley down and physically restrained the suspect until the police could arrive. The women said they did not know Whaley was outside of their home, according to the report. The police charged Whaley with disorderly conduct.

Victim scares away home intruder A 27-year-old Madison man scared away an intruder who climbed through the window of the victim’s North Butler Street apartment early Wednesday morning, according to a police report. The report says noises coming from his roommate’s bedroom awoke the victim at approximately 4:16 a.m. However, the victim knew his roommate was not in the apartment, so he went to check out the disturbance. The intruder “quickly jumped through a window and fled” upon the victim entering the room, Madison Police Department spokesperson Joel DeSpain said in the report. An officer who responded to the scene found a cinder block set below the window, which the screen had been taken out of, according to the report. The victim seemingly did not have time to steal anything. The suspect is described in the report as a white male in his twenties, approximately 5-foot-10, bald with blue or green eyes and a “possible ‘facial deformity.’” He was wearing a gray hooded sweatshirt, blue jeans and a blue baseball cap backwards, according to the report.

An 18-year-old Langdon Street resident was robbed by two strangers the victim’s roommate let into their apartment Sept. 6 after meeting them on the street, according to a police report. The release said the victim’s roommate allowed the suspects inside the apartment, located on the 200 block of Langdon Street, to play video games because “they seemed innocent enough” when he met them on the street at approximately 1:30 a.m. The victim’s laptop and wallet were stolen. The victim’s roommate told police one of the suspects walked down the hall at one point because he said he needed to make a phone call, according to the report. The report said the victim’s credit card was used at several convenience stores and his wallet was turned into a staff member at a Milwaukee Street convenience store Sept. 7. However, it only contained his ID and insurance cards. The suspects are both described in the report as black males, one 5 feet 9 inches with no facial hair and short dreadlocks; the other, 6 feet tall with short hair.

Haleigh amant opinion columnist

n trying to think of a relevant issue my student readers would enjoy, I realized scoping current events for something I could form an opinion about just wasn’t cutting it. Instead, I chose to look to the expert—myself and my peers. We’re the experts. We know what is relevant to students because we are the students. Not that this is a normal occurrence in our apartment, but last night my roommates and I engaged in a conversation that was extremely relevant and inspired this column today. We started discussing the difficulties of getting back into the school year, specifically the challenges that come with being bombarded with hundreds of pages of text a week. And this text isn’t easy. This text is challenging, in-depth and requires extreme concentration, especially if you are a political science major like myself. In trying to figure out a game plan for the hundreds of pages I needed to read for this week, I began coming up with alternatives to deep reading because, let’s face it, actually reading all the material seems simply impossible. Plan A: Well, obviously Spark Notes was an

option that entered my mind. B: Pay attention in class, take excellent notes and hope that it all works out. What a risky little game. C. SKIM. As I pondered the best of these silly options, it finally hit me. I am cheating myself out of my education. I am cheating myself out of my thousands of dollars that are going into this education. I’m only cheating myself; not my professor, not my TA, certainly not the University of WisconsinMadison. It’s easy to look at it as, “OK, if I can just get an A in this class by using Spark Notes, it will be fine.” And maybe it’s true that we simply don’t have time to read all that text; for instance, I am sitting outside of a Starbucks writing this article on my break rather than reading what I need to read for class. But this is important, and I want my fellow students to hear my point of view. I’m worried for future students, and I am worried for myself. I plan on going to law school, and I am sure plenty of you are planning on attending some sort of graduate or professional school yourselves. This is not a new problem that is being addressed, but it certainly hasn’t been addressed enough. This problem is what our instantaneous text, aka the Internet, our laptops, our tablets, our cell phones, our Snap Chat, our instant

graphic by haley henschel

news is doing to our ability to read long, complex, important text. It is also affecting the field of journalism itself. Journalism seems to be adapting itself to the changing ways of taking in information with Twitter and shorter content tailored to people who “don’t have time to sit down and read a whole article.” In fact, I will be pleasantly surprised if you can read this entire column of mine. It’s terrifying. I used to love to read. Now I find that even reading a book for fun takes immense amounts of effort. Why get deeply engrossed in a book when I can have instantaneous knowledge sent to my brain from the Internet, from snippets of news, magazine articles and the like? Well I can tell you about a mil-

lion reasons to still get engrossed in a book, but my subconscious apparently can’t. The ever more terrifying thing is that my friends are experiencing the increasing difficulty of reading as well, and that this could be biologically altering our brains and the way that we process knowledge and information. Humans are evolving creatures, and I worry that down the road we’ll be nothing but an extremely impatient species who loses the ability to spend a substantial amount of time thinking about something critically. We will be like machines where speed is the top priority. The Internet has been a tremendous step for us for many reasons, but its effects on our brains are quite troubling. The way we are changing, specifically the way our education is changing is alarming. I don’t like that I can’t sit down and read a difficult text without getting distracted by other things I have to do— my cell phone or Facebook. This isn’t just bad during college when we have hundreds of pages of difficult text to read, but this is bad for when we are in graduate school or in our career as well. In law school, I know that it is required to read very difficult text, to think of the legal concepts and to spend a considerable amount of time doing so. With how I am being trained to

dailycardinal.com

read now, I worry about my success in law school. For any job that requires a lot of reading and writing, this evolution of the way we think is worrisome. Maybe some of you aren’t experiencing that issue and if you aren’t, I am envious; however, I know many who are experiencing this issue, and I hope people realize how this will impact them, the way it will affect the way they consume knowledge and information. A couple of my TAs this semester have required that their students do not use laptops to take notes, but must come to class with a notebook filled with notes from that week’s text. I will admit that I was annoyed at first, but when I began to read the material prior to class and take notes on it in a notebook, pen to paper, I found myself much more engaged in the text and able to form arguments in my head and critically think. I urge you to look at the way that you take in knowledge, how it might be affecting your education, and if it really is the best way for you to do things, even if it may not be as convenient as Spark Notes or a Google search. Haleigh is a senior majoring in political science. Did you make it to the end of this column and agree with her? Please send all feedback to opinion@dailycardinal.com.

Bias toward women in the classroom must be eliminated genevieve Globus opinion columnist

s a nerdy, opinionated middle-schooler who mostly surrounded myself with other nerds, I was surprisingly unaware of the biases that affected my teachers and classmates each day. I was well aware of the fact that women were discriminated against in the world, but I always thought of it as a faroff issue, something that didn’t affect me. This all changed for me in sixth grade when I read about a research study revealing that seven out of 10 times a teacher calls on a student in class it will be a boy and that teachers tolerate boy students calling out answers in class more than they do for girl students. At first I didn’t believe it. I thought my school must be different. I was friends with very smart girls who were always raising their hands in class and outperforming the boys on tests and the like. I figured the study didn’t apply to my school. Being the curious kid that I was though, I decided to look into it in my own classrooms. I kept tallies of every time my teachers called on a student in class, and took note of whether the student was a boy or a girl. Well, you can guess how surprised I was when it turned out to be true. Both female and male teachers called on boy students an overwhelming amount more than girl students. This is just one example of the underlying expectancy biases affecting teachers that they

aren’t even aware of. Because the teachers subconsciously believe the boys to have more potential, they call on them more and, as a result, the boys tend to in turn do better in class. This underlying bias is extremely outdated, seeing as women currently make up 57 percent of college degree holders, yet for some reason it still affects us. It’s a glass ceiling of classrooms—no matter how smart a girl is, there will always be invisible factors, such as biases, keeping her from climbing to the top. The bias does make sense, however, considering we are fed images from the media every day of men at the top of the corporate ladder, men controlling politics and, you guessed it, men deciding the rights of the men AND women in America. We automatically assume young boys have more potential in becoming powerful world leaders and business tycoons than young girls, and in turn, we expect them to do better and give them more opportunities to do better, creating a self-fulfilling prophecy. However, just because this bias makes sense, it’s still not OK. In truth, women have just as much potential to succeed as men and should be treated as such. Teachers need to be aware of the fact that the way they treat female students in elementary and middle school classes will affect them for the rest of their lives. Because these biases are subconscious, it will take an active and conscious effort to eliminate them. The fact that still, to this day, teachers are letting these biases affect their classrooms infuriates me. I’m

not saying it’s easy to get rid of these biases, but it is something that is essential in order for our society to move forward. Subconscious

biases against women are one of the most powerful things holding women back from rising to the top. Eliminate these biases, and women

might just stand a chance at climbing up through the glass ceiling. Please send all feedback to opinion@dailycardinal.com

THE RECORD ROUTINE

Volcano Choir erupts with their second LP

Graphic by Haley Henschel

Contemporary jazz is fusing myriad genres By Brian Weidy The daily cardinal

Depending upon whom you talk to, jazz is either dead or having a major renaissance. In my eyes, both opinions would be correct. No jazz musician under the age of 50 has won the Grammy award for Best Jazz Instrumental Album since 2001, and it hasn’t been since the ’80s that someone not named Marsalis won the award when they were under 50. So in that sense, jazz doesn’t quite have the grip it used to. Yet at the same time, jazz is going through a complete rebirth. Robert Glasper, a jazz pianist, won a Grammy this past year (albeit for Best R&B Album). Esperanza Spalding, a jazz bassist, won Best New Artist in 2011—marking the first time a jazz artist has ever won the prestigious award, beating out high profile acts like Drake, Florence + The Machine, Justin Bieber and Mumford & Sons. Furthermore, artists such as Vijay Iyer and Hiromi—while never really crossing over into audiences outside of their tight jazz circles—have risen to become some of the brightest stars in their scenes. But that’s not really what we’re here to talk about. The issue at hand is jazz as your grandparents and your parents knew it is fading faster and faster out of mainstream culture, while at the same time, jazz elements are sneaking into mainstream or near-mainstream music every day.

Take Glasper’s unbelievable album, Black Radio. The album— which, as previously mentioned, won Best R&B Album at this past year’s Grammy Awards—is not a straight R&B album in the slightest. The album features songs like “Afro Blue,” an old jazz standard made popular by John Coltrane. At the same time, Glasper also covered Sade, David Bowie and Nirvana on the album, melding jazz and more popular sects of contemporary music. Black Radio is a jazz album turned on its head with collaborations from Lupe Fiasco, Erykah Badu, Lalah Hathaway, Yasiin Bey (formerly known as Mos Def) and Meshell Ndegeocello. That guest list alone runs the gamut from true R&B to hip-hop to jazz. But jazz isn’t just moving in a more hip-hop direction—it’s also leaking into folk and mainstream rock music. In 2005, accomplished jazz guitarist Nels Cline joined Wilco, arguably one of the most popular American rock bands of the 21st century. The group went on to experience a period of growth. Their live shows improved tenfold with Cline’s phenomenal solos accenting songs such as “Impossible Germany,” and his jazzy experimental song-writing influence was felt on tracks like “Art of Almost.” To go even further, jazz and the jam band genre are also tied to the hip. With improvisation being such a large piece of both genres, the combination makes sense; however, it is only

recently that the two have really become close. Medeski Martin & Wood are an indescribable trio that fit into both the jazz and the jam band worlds. Their advanced use of melody and rhythm combines with a penchant to extend songs well past their album lengths. A willingness to collaborate with anyone (jazz or otherwise) has made them a fixture of the jam scene. The Grateful Dead drew from a lot of places, particularly folk, early rock, Americana and even disco (in the case of the Shakedown Street-era). Unfortunately, jazz rarely entered their collective lexicon other than the Dead’s flare for improvising. This past summer, however, I had a chance to see Phil Lesh, the bassist for the Dead, and a collection of his “friends,” aptly dubbed “Phil Lesh & Friends.” His cohorts consisted of Joe Russo, a highly accomplished jazz drummer, John Medeski, the keys player for Medeski, Martin and Wood and John Scofield, one of the best jazz guitarists ever, who has played with everyone from Miles Davis to Billy Cobham. At the end of the day, bop and swing may be slipping into oblivion; however, jazz is permeating its way into other walks of music. While jazz purists may scoff at this, I would argue that this expansion into popular culture is refreshing in light of a world of button-mashers and knob-turners taking over the Billboard 200.

Repave Volcano Choir By Paul Blazevich the daily cardinal

If you are familiar with Justin Vernon’s many musical endeavors, then Repave by Volcano Choir is everything you would expect out of an album from the Bon Iver frontman and one-third of The Shouting Matches. If you are not familiar with the Eau Claire native’s work, this most recent release out of his collaboration with Milwaukee’s Collections of Colonies of Bees contains many hallmarks of Vernon’s previous work: a ghostly singing voice—ranging from bass to tenor, with a trademark falsetto used at opportune moments— pure folk/rock sounds that could have originated only in Wisconsin and an impressive combination of percussive and acoustic sounds. While tones of Bon Iver, Bon Iver are clearly heard in this second release by Volcano Choir, the band takes a broader approach to the folk genre than Bon Iver, including a slightly more electronic sound in some key tracks such as “Comrade” and “Almanac.” “Tiderays” opens Repave with a perfect ambience, then

traverses into acoustic guitar, Vernon’s opening lyrics and then finally, at the height of the introduction, releases the signature percussive element of this album. At the midway point of Repave, “Byegone” enlightens the listener with uplifting guitar chords and positive lyrics. On “Alaskans,” Vernon questions his lover as to why she left when he thought their life together was so good, while an acoustic guitar with a slight country twang backs up his vocals. “Almanac” closes the album with an adequate display of Vernon’s singing ability and a beautiful keyboard riff. The lyrics and instrumentals on this album all seem to have been placed at just the right moments. From guitar, to keyboard, to drums, to Vernon’s voice—all elements seem to introduce each other and each song seems to introduce the next. Throughout the duration of Repave, it is not difficult to believe Volcano Choir recorded and produced this album over the course of three years. When listening to Repave, I cannot help but to think how perfectly this album embraces the emotion and sound of fall. Volcano Choir’s unique harmonies could be used as a soundtrack to falling leaves and the motion of waves on Lake Mendota in late October, similar to the chilling cover photo.

All running smoothly on the Factory Floor

Factory Floor Factory Floor By Jordan McEvoy the daily cardinal

It’s been worth waiting three years for Factory Floor to release a new album. Their new self-titled album, Factory Floor, embodies a style we haven’t seen from the electronic trio. Known primarily for being a noise and post-punk band, their new record sets the tone of a futuristic disco with its retro drum machine kicks, distorted vocals and pulsating rhythms. Though repetitive, the album’s intensity amplifies with each track, making it an electrifying listen. The title track, “Turn It Up,” sets the tone of the album’s upbeat yet unsettling style. Primarily a dance album, the title track is nothing impressive. It drones on with predictable drum loops and repetitive synth. After a while, you find yourself wondering if

you’re listening to the same 30 seconds on repeat. Track by track, however, the beat quickens, revitalizing the album with constant energy. The record picks up pace with “Fall Back,” which was first released as a single, giving it character with its haunting words and digitalized rhythm. The final two tracks, “Work Out” and “Breathe In,” end the album on a mischievous, sultry note, and bring forward the volatile funk heard at the album’s onset. Perhaps the greatest thing about the album is the potential it has as a live set. Factory Floor’s experimental nature separates it from the pre-programmed playlists and predictable bass drops currently dominating the club scene. There’s no point in trying to replicate their live sound on record, especially since this new release leaves much room for improvisation. The tumultuous sound of the album allows for a reactive live performance. Overall, through their unique and systematic beats, Factory Floor has created an album worth listening to on all avenues.

Junior outside hitter Ellen Chapman leads the undefeated No. 25 Badgers with 92 kills through six games this season.

UW volleyball returns home for InnTowner tournament By Brett Bachman The Daily Cardinal

With a 6-0 record under its belt and the first national top 25 ranking since 2008, the Badger volleyball team heads home with preseason momentum to the 22nd InnTowner Invitational at the University of Wisconsin Field House. Undefeated with first-year head coach Kelly Sheffield at the helm, Wisconsin opens its home schedule Friday night against Kansas (4-3) for the Student Block Party, with students receiving free admission and pizza. “Coming up, we’ve got a heck of a test [against Kansas],” Sheffield said in a press conference Monday. “That’s a team that returns everybody but one starter from a top-10 RPI team. We’ve got our hands full.” UW is coming off a 3-0 victory over No. 17 Louisville at the North Dakota State Invitational, and looks to attract a crowd for Friday night’s matchup. “The Field House is known throughout the country as having an unbelievable fan base,” Sheffield said. “I know people are passionate about this sport around here.” During the game Wisconsin held the Cardinals to a .087 kill

percentage, aided by freshman setter Lauren Carlini’s first double-double for Wisconsin. Saturday morning UW returns to the Field house for a matchup against in-state rival UW-Milwaukee (3-3), who last weekend took the Akron Invitational championship. Junior setter Courtney Thomas leads the team with 139 assists, her preferred target being junior outside hitter Ellen Chapman, whose 92 kills also lead the Badgers through six games. Wisconsin wraps up the InnTowner tournament Saturday evening with a matchup against Bowling Green (1-4). The Badgers have just one more weekend of nonconference play following the InnTowner before their Big Ten season opens against Purdue at home. For Sheffield, this weekend represents a chance to work out the kinks before the conference schedule heats up. “We’re a work in progress,” Sheffield said. “I mean, it’s very, very clear. We’re giving away points at times that just because the lack of familiarity … but this team’s got potential to be a lot better once they get in the gym together.”

The Wisconsin men’s cross country team started off the season with a victory in the 6-kilometer Badger Open at Zimmer Championship course this past Friday. UW ended last season in strong fashion, finishing second at the NCAA championship race. The Badgers opened the season ranked No. 7 in the nation. Head coach Mick Bryne was named Director of Cross Country and Track and Field this past summer. Bryne has led the men’s cross country team to five straight Big Ten champion-

ships and guided UW to the 2011 NCAA Championship. By promoting Bryne, UW became the seventh Big Ten school to combine its women’s and men’s cross country and track programs. This approach is gaining momentum among the top cross country programs in the nation, as eight of the top 10 men’s teams and nine out of the top 10 women’s teams at the 2013 NCAA Outdoor Track & Field Championships have combined their men’s and women’s programs. Wisconsin finished last Friday’s race with a team score of 25 points.

Grabbing the top four spots in the race, the Badgers had a stranglehold on their opponents. Junior Jacob Erschen, redshirt freshman Malachy Schrobilgen, and seniors Jacob Naylor and Neal Berman crossed the finish line together, finishing with matching times of 18:18. The Badgers have a long way back to the NCAA championships. The team’s next meets are Sept. 14 at the Sycamore Invitational and the Warhawk Invitational. Looking ahead, the Big Ten Championship race is set for Nov. 11, while the NCAA championship will take place Nov. 23.

Women’s Cross Country The Wisconsin women’s cross country team also started this season on the right foot. UW finished second at the Zimmer Championship course this past Friday. Unfortunately for the Badgers, the only other Big Ten team in the race, Northwestern, finished first. Last year, the Badgers earned four first-place finishes but finished eighth in the Big Ten Championship race with a total of 182 points, and UW ultimately failed to qualify for the NCAA Championship race. Head coach Jim Stintzi, in his eighth year as the head

man at Wisconsin, will need to rely on the youth on this year’s team. In his time as head coach Stintzi has led the Badgers to four NCAA Championship medal finishes. Junior Gabrielle Anzalone and sophomore Emma-Lisa Murphy appear to be UW’s leading runners this year. Anzalone, the 2011 Big Ten Freshman of the Year, finished the race this past weekend seventh overall with a time of 14:25. Last year’s Zimmer Championship course winner, Murphy finished ninth this past weekend with a time of 14:49.

Murphy and Anzalone were the only two Badgers to finish in the top 10, while senior Erin Cawley, redshirt sophomore Anne Gregory and senior Lavinia Jurkiewicz scored points for the Badgers, finishing 12th, 14th, and 15th respectively. UW will travel to Whitewater, Wis., and Terre Haute, Ind., this upcoming weekend for the Warhawk and Sycamore Invitationals, respectively. The Big Ten Championship is set for Nov. 3 at West Lafayette, Ind., while the NCAA National Championship race will be Nov. 23 at Terre Haute, Ind.

Men’s soccer records shutout to stay undefeated The Wisconsin men’s soccer team (3-0-1) travelled to the sunshine state and found anything but. After two hours of rain and lightening delays, the Badgers blanked the University of South Florida (1-2-1 overall) 2-0 to remain undefeated on the season. This was Wisconsin’s first shutout on the season. In the eighth minute, senior

forward Nick Janus scored his first goal of the season with a far-post finish from near the left corner of the box. Redshirt senior Tomislav Zadro crossed the ball from a set piece that senior defender Paul Yonga headed home for the second goal of the game. Zadro is continuing his form after winning Big Ten CoOffensive Player of the Week

honors Monday. He had two goals and two assists over the weekend, including the last-second equalizing goal against DePaul. The last time the Badgers were undefeated after four games was in 2008. Wisconsin proved more efficient than USF, winning 2-0 despite being outshot 11-4. (Jonah beleckis) the daily cardinal

Savvy post-season moves look to propel improving Milwaukee Bucks into Eastern Conference elite Blake Duffin Shake ’n’ Blake

ollowing a subpar season and an embarrassing playoff appearance for the Milwaukee Bucks, it became clear something needed to be done. To the delight of fans, without a doubt, this year’s offseason for the Bucks has been an unbelievable team transformation. It started to become obvious what direction general manager John Hammond wanted to go after not re-signing Brandon Jennings, and putting forth minimal effort to re-sign Monta Ellis. This, coupled with the losses of names like J.J. Redick, Luc Richard Mbah a Moute and Mike Dunleavy, pointed to definite reconstruction of the eighth-seeded Eastern Conference squad. In fact, only two starters and four players in total will

return next season. This has to be one of the best possible outcomes for the Bucks. Let’s be honest, when an average, shoot-first point guard in Jennings is the face of the franchise, the chances of being a championship caliber team are slim. Anyone who watched Milwaukee’s playoff performance can attest to the need for a change.

Anyone who watched Milwaukee’s playoff performance can attest to the need for change.

Rather than conforming to the idea of building a “team” by adding two or three superstars, the Bucks took more of a San Antonio-style approach. For the first time in a while it seems, they went out and strategically invested in role players such as Gary

Neal and Caron Butler. These may not be the type of players that will appear weekly on SportsCenter’s Top 10, but are the type of guys that will make the big play when it’s needed, as Neal proved last year in the playoffs. In addition, Milwaukee will have much more depth this season. Instead of no-names like Ishmael Smith and Marquis Daniels coming off of our bench, Milwaukee will pose an actual threat with proven players like Luke Ridnour, Neal and Butler depending on how the starting lineup pans out. When you look around at the championship caliber teams, depth and quality bench players seem to be an areas that everyone has in common. Even though the Miami Heat have invested so much money in their three power players, they still have a prime bench presence in Shane Battier and Chris Andersen. Perhaps one of the biggest

transactions of the offseason was the acquisition of guard O.J. Mayo from Dallas. Mayo, a former first round pick, has huge upside. Unlike Jennings and Ellis, Mayo has a bit more size, yet still has scoring ability. When you couple O.J. with recently added point guard from Detroit, Brandon Knight, the Buck’s backcourt got a little bit of a facelift.

The direction they are heading in definitely seems to be promising. Knight, who is notoriously known as one of the top defensive guards in the league, adds a dimension that Milwaukee guards have been lacking in recent years. Only time will tell, but the addition of two bigger and more defensive minded guards may just be the change that the Buck’s backcourt has needed.

If there was one positive thing to take from last season, it would be the emergence of young center Larry Sanders. Although he may not be able to spell the word “receive” as featured on his most recent tattoo, the guy sure can shot block. Last season, Sanders was second in the league in blocks, as he provided that extra defensive edge. Milwaukee rewarded Sanders this offseason by signing him to a four-year contract extension. Sanders has only improved since his arrival in Milwaukee and offers the perfect defensive matchup against other Eastern Conference studs like Chris Bosh and Roy Hibbert. Could this offseason resurge the type of team basketball that Milwaukee hasn’t seen since the Sam Cassell, Ray Allen and Glenn Robinson days? It may be a little early to know now, but the direction they are heading in definitely seems to be promising.

Badgers face road test at Arizona State By Rushad Machhi the daily cardinal

After two blowout victories at Camp Randall to start off head coach Gary Andersen’s inaugural season at Wisconsin, the Badgers face their first real test on the road against Arizona State Saturday. After playing first-year FBS member Massachusetts and FCS foe Tennessee Tech, No. 20 Wisconsin gets it first primetime matchup of the year, travelling to Tempe, Ariz. The last time these two teams met, a thriller took place in Madison as the Badgers eked out a 20-19 victory thanks to a blocked extra point attempt. With both sides very evenly matched, another thriller looms on the forecast. The Arizona heat will be a change of pace for the Badgers, with kick off temperature predicted to be 93 degrees fahrenheit, dropping off to a balmy 87 by 10 p.m. The offensive line, however, is more worried about the Sun Devils’ defensive front. “[It’s going to be] all of us versus No. 52 [redshirt junior defensive end Carl Bradford] and No. 90 [senior defensive tackle Will Sutton]” offensive line coach T.J. Woods said. Known for their ability to wreak havoc on offensive lines, Sutton, the All-American, and Bradford, who recorded 11.5 sacks as a sophomore, will test the Badgers’ pass protection, which through two games has given up only one sack. However, Wisconsin has not faced similar talent on the

Redshirt senior wide receiver Jared Abbrederis leaves several Tennessee Tech defenders in his wake Saturday, finishing the game with eight receptions for 62 yards and one touchdown. front seven this year, and the Sun Devils utilize it aggressively, blitzing about 75 percent of the time. Even with the step up in talent and pressure, Woods said the Badgers’ line has continued to work hard and will be ready to go to war in the trenches come Saturday night. Even with the imposing front seven, ASU will have its hands full with Wisconsin’s running back trio of senior James White, redshirt sophomore Melvin Gordon and fresh-

man Corey Clement. They have contributed to most of the 390 rushing yards per game so far, and they have already scored seven total touchdowns on the ground. All but one of the team’s remaining touchdowns have come from redshirt sophomore Joel Stave’s arm, with his favorite target clearly being redshirt senior receiver Jared Abbrederis. He has 184 yards and three touchdowns on the season. The Sun Devils have a very

experienced secondary that starts two seniors and a junior. Stave looks to provide balance to an offense that almost always runs well. While the Badgers offense had no problem putting up points through their first two games, Wisconsin’s defense has made it nearly impossible for opponents to score. Wisconsin puts its eight-quarter shutout streak on the line against a very potent ASU offense. Led by redshirt junior quarter-

back Taylor Kelly, the Sun Devils run a spread offense that features a lot of dynamic playmakers. Kelly, in his first year as a starter last season, dazzled by completing 67.1 percent of his passes while also passing for 29 touchdowns. He also possesses the athletic ability to run the ball in the read option having rushed for 516 yards last season. When Kelly is not passing or running, senior running back Marion Grice and sophomore D.J. Foster have the ball, both recording more than 400 total yards in 2012. The UW defense does have the tools to stop the Sun Devils, it’s just a question of how it uses them. As a unit, they have the nation’s best total defense through two weeks, holding teams to an average of 162.5 yards per game. Defensive coordinator Dave Aranda highlights the ASU pace as a huge factor for the game, and thinks athletic sophomore linebacker Joe Schobert will have a big impact. “He is made for a spot like this,” Aranda said. The Badgers hope the rest of their team is made for their spot like Schobert as well. When Wisconsin traveled into Pac-12 territory last season the game did not go as planned, as UW lost 10-7 to Oregon State. Arizona State presents another tough road Pac-12 opponent for the second consecutive year, and Wisconsin looks to make a statement in the national spotlight by beating both the Arizona heat and the Sun Devils in the same night.
