Wednesday morning at 9:06, a 4.3 magnitude struck about eight miles southeast of Norman, Okla., that was felt as far away as Tulsa.
The earthquake that struck in Norman has been declared a 4.3 magnitude on the Richter scale by the United States Geological Survey website.
Reports throughout the day differed on the size. The Oklahoma Geological Survey has reported the earthquake reached a magnitude of 5.1, a size that would make it the second largest in the state’s history. According to reports received by the U.S. agency, the quake was large enough to be felt in parts of Arkansas, Kansas, Missouri and Texas. Some students at UNT also reported feeling the tremors in Denton.
“The feeling we had at the fire administration building
was that someone had hit the building with a vehicle,” said Jim Bailey, Norman deputy fire chief. “We went outside and didn’t see anything and we thought it may have been an explosion. That’s just one of the things that goes through your mind.”
The epicenter of the earth-quake was 4.9 miles below Lake Thunderbird, east of Norman. The emergency call center was flooded with calls reporting the earthquake this morning, Bailey said.
However, he said, the fire department was not required to mobilize in response to any damage and he had received no reports of injury because of the earthquake. Bailey, a 30-year veteran of the Norman fire department, said that was the first earthquake he had experienced.
staff and a better educated housing communit y, sa id Maureen McGuinness, assis-tant vice president for student affairs.
After receiving an incident report from the reporting resi-dent assistant and housing director explaining their side
of the story, the center sends out a notice of complaint to the student.
The notice informs the student of the allegations and the time, date and location of the violation.

On Saturday, notable athletes including former NFL players will be on campus for UNT’s annual Hall of Fame breakfast.
Players inducted into the university’s Hall of Fame, created in 1981, have done great things for North Texas athletics, said Matt Phillips, assistant director of sales for UNT’s athletics department.
“Whether they led us to a bowl game or whether they were on the track and set all kinds of records, they’ve exceeded their expecta-tions as a North Texas athletic member,” he said.
The breakfast will be held at 8:30 a.m. on Saturday in the Gateway Center Ballroom. George Dunham, voice of the Mean Green and co-host of the Dunham and Miller morning show on KTCK-AM 1310, The
Ticket SportsRadio, will host the ceremony.
“Some people don’t view North Texas as an athletic school, they visualize us as just an artsy school,” Phillips said. “But we’ve had some very famous people come through in sports and had some very successful teams.”
Four athletes are inducted each year and are voted on by members of the Hall of Fame committee. This year, Patrick Cobbs, Kevin Galbreath, Mike Hagler and Ben Moturi will be inducted as the Hall of Fame class of 2010, according to the UNT website. Cobbs, a profes-sional football player for the Miami Dolphins, will not attend because of a game against the Green Bay Packers. Instead, a pre-recorded video of his accep-tance speech will be played,
Phillips said.Jenni Wanger, an accounting
senior, said she was an athlete, which was like a full-time job.
“I think it’s great that they’re being recognized,” she said. “People don’t really know all the hard work students put in [sports].”
Joe Greene, nicknamed “Mean Joe” Greene, will attend the breakfast. Greene is one of UNT’s most famous Hall of Fame members, Phillips said.
Greene attended UNT from 1966 to 1968. He was chosen as the No. 4 overall draft pick for the Pittsburg Steelers in 1969 and went on to win four Super Bowls with the team.
He has also been inducted into the NFL’s Professional Football Hall of Fame. BY DANIELLE BICE
InternThe city launched Shop Here
on Purpose program, a city-wide campaign to educate the community about the benefits of shopping in Denton, at the beginning of the month.
Spending money in town keeps sales tax dollars working for the community, city employees said.
Christina Davis, administra-tive office assistant of the city of Denton’s economic devel-opment department, and Kara Roberson, a public communi-cations specialist of the public communications department, started the campaign.
“We found out that the city’s budget is based on sales tax, and sales tax is low,” Davis said. “I looked at her and she looked at me and we were like, ‘We have to get this out to the public. The public needs to know that we need to shop.’ We need to keep our money here and keep the sales tax going.”
The sales tax rate is 8.25 percent. The revenue goes to various community services, including fire and police departments, libraries, parks, and roads. In the 2010 to 2011 fiscal year, 24 percent of the city’s budget is supported by 1.5 percent of sales tax revenue.
“When you shop in your
community, it makes those businesses in your commu-nity stronger and then those businesses are available to help for fundraisers and help all of these other community-based programs that support people in the community,” Davis said.
The campaign started in March as an internal campaign for city employees.
“If we were encouraging other people to do it, then we should be doing it ourselves,” Roberson said.
The citywide campaign began Sept. 30 at the Mayor Council breakfast.
At the event, the city told about 150 community leaders, business owners, business leaders and major employers of the campaign.
“They hear this informa-tion and then they get really excited about it, and then they go back and they tell their employees and they tell the people they work with and they tell the people in their family,” Davis said. “It’s kind of like a grassroots thing, where it just spreads, and it grows and gains momentum.”
Not all Denton business owners are aware of the program yet, including Mike Sutton, the owner of Big Mike’s Coffee.
“If I don’t know anything
about, how do the citizens know anything about it,” Sutton said.
He added that encouraging people to spend money locally would help any business.
Many students unknowingly help the S.H.O.P. cause by shop-ping and going out on the week-ends near campus.
“I go out every weekend,” said Shelly Morrison, an infor-mation technology freshman. “That’s usually when I stock up on my food.”
Sales tax revenue does not only come from retail, but also from restaurants, commercial businesses and other places.
“I’m not much of a shopper, but I go out to eat a lot,” said Keegan Roser, who plans to transfer to UNT. “A couple times a month I’ll go and try to pick up a CD or a shirt.”
One project S.H.O.P. is working on is educating store owners about the benefits of the campaign.
“It seems to be pretty well-received,” Roberson said. “They understand the benefit to them that we’re encouraging people to shop in their stores and to spend money here, and keeping people from going to places like Lewisville to spend money. The more that we get economi-cally, the more people will shop here.”

A f ter notching its f i rst road conference wins this weekend, the UNT soccer team ascended from ninth to sevent h place i n t he South Region in this week’s HendrickCars.com/NSCA A Poll.
The ranking marks the fourth-straight week UNT has made the poll.
“We have to keep winning and we’re playing a very good team on Friday,” head coach John Hedlund said. “If we can win on Friday and Sunday and get some upsets of the teams in front of us, we could crack the top five
for the first time ever.”Winner of four straight,
the Mean Green (9-5-1, 4-2-0) has used strong play from its midfielders to move into third place in the Sun Belt Conference.
Junior Julie Lackey and soph-omore Ellen Scarfone have made their presence felt in the
midfield, leading UNT in points with 17 each.
“The defense is pretty much set with the defenders we have back there, so I just try to use my passing and shooting skills to take over the midfield,” Scarfone said.
Hedlund’s offense has been explosive all season with the
Mean Green ranking 16th in the nation and first in the Sun Belt in goals scored per game.
UNT hasn’t had trouble getting ahead of its opponents as it has trailed for only 4 percent of its minutes played.
“One of our problems early on was keeping a lead, but we’ve gotten a lot better at that,” soph-
omore forward Michelle Young said.
Fellow Sun Belt members Denver, Florida International and Western Kentucky joined the Mean Green in this week’s rank-ings. The Pioneers are ranked second while the Panthers and Hilltoppers sit behind UNT at eighth and 10th.

The UNT crime statistics released last week on the Center for Student Rights and Responsibilities website show that housing liquor law viola-tions are down, drug-related violations are up and habi-tation burglaries are steadily decreasing.
In 2007, there were 200 disci-plinary referrals sent to the center for liquor law violations, 35 for drug-related violations and 26 habitation burglaries.
Liquor law and drug related housing violations
In the two years following the 2007 report, liquor law violations decreased by 13, then increased by 32 and drug-related referrals increased by 24, then decreased by 59.
Some reasons t he dr ug and alcohol violations have changed could be because of the two K-9 units on campus, better trained Residence Life

The student then has to meet with one of four conduct officers to tell his or her side of the story and depending upon the t wo stories, the center will investigate.
“W hen CSRR receives a referral, the process is always to be educationa l so that students can learn to make better decisions so that they are an active citizen of our society,” McGuinness said. “We help students under-stand how their behavior is affecting the greater commu-nity and their academic prog-ress.”
Zauhkunseng Shadan, a biology freshman, said drug and alcohol usage affect how well students learn.
“The primary reason you come to college is to get an education, so you have to f inish your goals,” Shadan said. “Now is not the time for that stuff.”
The UNT Police Department meets with housing repre-sentatives multiple times per
month and has officers in and out of the dorms daily, said Ed Reynolds, UNT deputy police chief.
“Our goal is to intervene as soon as possible and work with CRSS and get help to those students,” he said.
The center w i l l have a variety of activities next week promoting National Collegiate Alcohol Awareness week. One is a drunken driver simu-lator, a videogame-like tech-nology used to show people the complications of driving while intoxicated by increas-ingly impairing their sight as they hypothetically consume more alcohol, McGuinness said.
The center will also have a panel of victims affected by drunken driving share their stories.
Habitation BurglariesUn l i ke t he f luct uat i ng
numbers in a lcohol- a nd drug-related housing viola-tions, habitation burglaries have steadily decreased. In 2008, habitation burglaries
went from 26 to 16 and then decreased aga in to 12 in 2009.
“T he most f r u st r at i ng repor t s a re bu r g la r ie s ,” Reynolds said. “Sometimes they are difficult to solve.”
T h e U N T P o l i c e Department, in collabora-tion with UNT Housing, has created a variety of posters that hang in the dorms advo-cating for people to be aware of their surroundings.
The police department also participates in training RAs on how to help prevent habi-tation burglary.
In the summer of 2009, the police and Housing imple-mented a sticker for ever y U N T Hou si ng re sident ’s door.
The sticker reads “STOP! Lock your door.”
Tony Desousa, a radio, tele-vision and film senior who has been an R A at Victor y Hall for two and a half years, said he feels the efforts are effective.

“North of Oklahoma City they have earthquakes, but they’re typically very small,” Bailey said.
The University of Oklahoma is in Norman.
Kevin Rider, a senior at the university, was sleeping when the earthquake hit. A native of Kansas, Rider said that he had never experienced an earth-quake before, but he knew they were common in Oklahoma.
While he hadn’t experienced any before, he had heard the area had a few earlier in the year.
“I thought the garbage man was driving into the building because I heard his truck outside,” Rider said.
Earthquakes are not a rarity in Oklahoma, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. More than 200 earthquakes have been reported near the location of the Norman quake since 1974. The largest earthquake to ever occur in the state was a 5.5 magnitude
earthquake that struck outside of El Reno, Okla., in 1952.
C. Reid Ferring, a UNT geology professor, said the earthquakes aren’t caused by one fault line but rather by a group of faults deep within Earth’s crust. Most of the faults are not visible on the surface and run through the center of the state, causing the small earthquakes that occur.
“They are more common in central Oklahoma, but earth-quakes of this size are pretty rare,” Ferring said.

Simple reminders to lock the door are of utmost impor-

“CSRR and UNTPD are here to support the educational mission of this institution,” McGuinness said.

Designer brands come to UNT at discounted prices
SGA, official discuss parking
By Taryn WalkerPhotography Intern
Students and faculty can save money this holiday season by spending no more than $25 on name-brand merchandise.
The School of Merchandising and Hospitality Management is hosting a sample sale and “Brand You: Creating a Remarkable Life in an Unconventional World” discussion panel from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. today in the University Union Courtyard.
Between 11 a.m. and 2 p.m. there will be a cash-only sample sale open to all students. It will include products from name-brand companies such as Harley-Davidson, Fossil Inc., M & M, Global Views, Zales, Dallas Diamond Center and The Apparel Group Ltd.
“The sample sale is just plain fun [and an] incredible value,” said Steve Woodward, the senior vice president of product devel-opment for Fossil, Inc., in an
e-mail interview. “Where else can you buy a Michael Kors or DKNY watch that sells for $100 to $250 at $25?”
Examples of items that will be sold include Fossil watches, clothing from Harley-Davidson, The Apparel Group Ltd., other clothing labels and several other name-brand bargained products.
Preceding the sale, there will be a discussion held by three merchandising Board
of Governors members: Steve Woodward; Jennifer Millard, the executive v ice presi-dent of channels develop-ment for ZoomSystems in San Francisco; and Ruth Crowley, the former vice president of consumer products for Harley-Davidson.
The discussion is open to all merchandising students.
“Our goal is to help students discover their own why,” Woodward said. “Knowing why you do something — school, work, life — helps you live a more fulfilled and successful life.”
This may be the conversation that gets students to discover their own passion, he said.
“I want each UNT student to have a fun, challenging and successful career doing things they are passionate about,”
Woodward said. “Rather than find a job, find a passion.”
The panel discussion is an opportunity for UNT students to interact with industry leaders, said Christy Crutsinger, asso-ciate dean and professor in the School of Merchandising and Hospitality Management.
The sample sale will kick off with a surprise that students won’t want to miss, she said.
“This is a window to show-case our program, from the creative aspect to the analytical merchandise planning aspect,” Crutsinger said.
Money collected from the event will be used for schol-arships, student development and things that may benefit students within the merchan-dising department, said Tammy Kinley, chairwoman of the School of Merchandising and
Hospitality Management.“Our goal is $10,000,” she
said. Merchandising students from
10 classes have helped bring the event together. Hundreds of students have helped in some capacity, including publicity, volunteering to work the sample sale and introducing speakers, Kinley said.
The event is designed for not only merchandising students, but for also all UNT students and faculty to enjoy.
Molly Esposito, an educa-tion senior, lives in Keller and said she is willing to drive to Denton for the sample sale’s cheap prices.
“I think it is a great idea to do a sample sale to raise money for schools,” she said. “Broke college kids will defi-nitely come.”

Joe Richmond, the interim d i rector of Pa rk i ng a nd Transportation, addressed st udent concer n s about park ing at the universit y at the Wednesday meeting of the Student Government Association.
This semester t he SGA has been seeking ways to improve the parking situa-tion on campus. The SGA is the student-led governmental body of UNT. The university has more than 36,000 students and 12,800 parking spaces to accommodate them, along with the staff and visitors present on campus.
“We are a big school that has grown up around small-school parking,” Richmond said.
Richmond spoke about the various issues involved with creating and managing parking on campus and took ques-
tions from the SGA. During that time, he called parking at UNT a balancing act.
One complaint with the parking situation at UNT has been the sale of parking permits beyond the spaces available. More than 20,000 permits have been sold. Richmond said this is a common practice at most college campuses because of the changing numbers of people on a campus at any given time.
Another concern voiced by members of the SGA’s fiscal committee was where the $5.6 million collected by the trans-portation department last year was going. Richmond cited the new $20 million parking garage that is under construc-tion and the cost of running buses at short intervals during the day, along with the cost of adding new buses in the future, as costs the depart-ment has to deal with.
“I thought it was a very frank speech,” said Christopher Walker, senator for the College of Music. “I can easily see where $5 million in revenue goes.”
Some senators also said that the transportation depart-ment doesn’t do enough to publicize the new measures it is trying to put in place.
R ic h mond h a i le d t he arrival of the department’s meter cards, which can be purchased from the depart-ment and used instead of coins at parking meters across campus.
But some senators were concerned that the program hasn’t been properly promoted and students may st i l l be unaware of it.
“I feel like when you log on to [the parking website] it just shows you permits,” said Edwin Chavez, senator for the College of Engineering.

Guild members learn from each other, sell creations

Studio rooms filled with clay and bright-colored glazes, along-side flyers placed throughout Oak Street Hall on bulletin boards, encourage students to express their creativity.
The UNT Clay Guild allows students to sell their works while receiving outside help from skilled ceramicists.
The next meeting is at 2 p.m. on Oct. 27 at Oak Street Hall.
“The guild has been successful for so long because it continues to offer students opportunities in which they can show, sell and make their work better,” said H.P. Bloomer, a ceramics grad-uate student and president of the guild.
Skill Sets During and After College
The biggest gift the guild has given Geovanne Garcia, its trea-surer, and Bloomer is networking. They both want members to walk away with strong communica-tion skills.
“If students want to move on from this university and become studio artists, this is a great place for connections, tech-nical and work experiences,” said Garcia, a ceramics and visual arts senior.
Students like Kimberly Paser, an art education senior, believe that offering ceramics to students is valuable.
“I think that it would be bene-ficial to students that want to try out some studio workshops who don’t have the time to take the courses,” she said.
Garcia said she wants incoming and current members to ask questions if they need help and to feel welcomed into the ceramics community.
Experience is KeyThe UNT Clay Guild costs $30
“I think it’s pretty cool for students to see the faces of the names that they’ve heard in the NFL,” Phillips said.
Abner Haynes, a former NFL player for the Dallas Texans and an UNT alumnus, will also attend the break-fast, Phillips said.
Each year, UNT honors a past team. This year, two teams will be honored, the 1985-1986 women’s basket-ball team and the 1950 foot-ball team. The 1985-1986
women’s basketbal l team will celebrate the 25th anni-versary of playing in a NCAA basketball tournament.
The 1950 football team was the Gulf Coast Conference Co-C ha mpion s, Ph i l l ips said.
“For students [in sports] just like any history class, it’s always good to know where you’ve been to know where you’re going,” he said.
Phillips said the best part of the Hall of Fame break-fast for him is allowing the a lumni to see t he g reat
changes made at the univer-sity and in the community.
“Some of t hese people haven’t been on ca mpus in 15 or 20 years,” he said. “They have no idea that we’re building a new stadium or that we’re at a size of almost 37,000 students.”
Tickets are on sale for $15 at the door, which covers entr y to t he ser v ice and breakfast.
Students, as well as the public, are welcome. Free parking will be available at Fouts Field.

to join. The fee covers annual T-shirt costs and guarantees members a spot to sell their art, Bloomer said.
The UNT Clay Guild raises more than $10,000 a year to pay for visiting artists and other activities, according to the orga-nization’s Facebook page.
Visiting artists teach work-shops and provide hands-on training and personal stories about producing pieces after college, Bloomer said.
Currently, there are not any workshops set up for this semester. Members travel to neighboring colleges to grow in their ceramic techniques, Garcia
said.Three big events are hosted
yearly: The Christmas Sale, Nov. 1 through Nov. 3 at the University Courtyard; Lucky Lou’s Pint Night on Dec. 7, and the Denton Arts and Jazz Festival April 29 at the Denton Square. The public is given the chance to purchase one-of-a-kind pieces, Bloomer said.
“It benefits students and gives the rest of the public a chance to invest in a piece of handmade art that will enrich their daily lives,” Bloomer said.

On campus, Andy Townsend is known as a student. On stage, however, she is known as Bettie Blood, a Denton-based burlesque group.
The Bettie Blood Burlesque group is composed of Bettie Blood herself, along with at least six other performers.
“I wanted to see something different than just traditional burlesque and do both tradi-tional and gothic industrial, punk, metal...pretty much anything, so I was looking for a lot of variety,” said Townsend, a psychology junior.
At a young age, Townsend said she performed her first variety show, fell in love with it and decided to create her own burlesque company.
Her f i rst show was a Halloween Zombie burlesque show at Rubber Gloves six years ago. Townsend said it was successful, so she continued with her new enter-tainment.
“I know that there are maybe one or two burlesque
groups out there that do [variety shows] but most of my stuff [is] based on story lines and more theater-type perfor-mances,” Townsend said.
Venues hire her for perfor-mances, Townsend said, and she contacts people she has performed with to hire for the upcoming shows where they come up with their own dance routine and costumes.
In January, Devin Zieres became her partner in the company and books bands for Bettie Blood’s perfor-mances.
“The best part is getting to know different bands and all different kinds people from all over the place and share what you do,” said Zieres said. “The nature of the business would be the downside to every upside...people being f laky, not showing up to gigs.”
Despite f la k y people, former UNT student Elizabeth McFadyen said she has been performing for Bettie Blood since its second year.
McFadyen, known as Lizard on stage, said she believes the group is going places and
improving in the number of attendees and venues.
“The thrill of being on stage is amazing,” McFadyen said. “I went into it a little shy...but a couple of performances in, I noticed a big change in my level of confidence, being able to talk to people, just relaxing and having fun with it.”
Townsend said she believes in women’s empowerment and feels women are expected to look or act a certain way in today’s society.
“It’s based off of your perfor-mance instead of how you look and that’s so awesome to me and I want to be able to provide that opportunity to everybody,” Townsend said.
Bettie Blood’s next perfor-mance will begin at 9:30 p.m. tonight at the Boiler Room.
Laura Fritsch, an English junior, said she went to a performance in April.
“I didn’t really know what to expect because I [had] never been to one, but it was a lot of fun,” she said.

severe weather,” Magliocco said. “I always thought that t hu nderstor ms were t h is amazing natural phenomenon, but I had no idea that you could figure out where they were going to be in advance.”
After watching a documen-tary on PBS and seeing the film “Twister,” Magliocco said he realized he could forecast where the storms might be and go to the predicted area in advance.

“It was just a hobby and I met people who were also inter-ested in it,” Magliocco said. “It was kind of this group of storm chaser friends that I grew up with in chasing. At the beginning we were all bad, we didn’t see many good storms and when we did, we didn’t know what part of the storm to look [at].”
Magliocco said as more years passed by, the group became more experienced and matured as storm chasers together.
Many of t he people he chased storms with have gone on to become meteorologists, which makes chasing with them even more fun because of their weather knowledge, he said.
A history of violenceOn April 21, 2007, in the small
town of Tulia, Texas, Magliocco and a chase partner were struck by a tornado.
Magliocco said the tornado spun up in a part of the storm they didn’t expect.
“By then, my chase partner and I had seen hundreds and hundreds of tornados, and this appeared in a place we didn’t expect it, and it just zipped towards us,” Magliocco said. “It was like a violent dust devil.”
The tornado picked up the Nissan Xterra the two were in and dropped the vehicle into a building, Magliocco said.
The tornado caused the building to collapse on their SUV and then dropped a semi on the front corner of the truck, blowing all the windows out,

Resident assistants ‘extremely important’ to dorm lifeBY STEPHANIE ROSSIntern
W h i le ma k i ng rou nds, fashion design sophomore Arielle Antwine realized one of her Maple Hall residents had left his TV on at the maximum volume level. There was only
one thing to do : key into his room without waking him up.
“I think the most nerve-wracking thing about it was the fact that my marker wasn’t working,” Antwine said. “It literally took me a long time

he said. Although the experience
was unsettling, Magliocco said he does not consider chasing storms to be dangerous other than the threat of lightning.
“If I thought it was really da ngerous, I wou ld stop because I’m more inter-ested in my writing career than in my chasing career,” Magliocco said. “I consider driving in Dallas traffic to be more dangerous than storm chasing.”
Magliocco said he normally stays far away to take pictures, shoot video and actually enjoy the experience.
‘An outside life’
Magliocco said he only chases in the spring, which works well with the teaching academic schedule.
Chasing usually goes on from the last week of May to the first two weeks of June, Magliocco said.
Hannah Buran, a hospitality management sophomore, was Magliocco’s student last year.
“I thought he was a complete badass,” Buran said. “You never really think about professors having an outside life. It’s cool to find out about their hobbies.”
Buran said she thought it was interesting that Magliocco was involved in storm chasing because it’s not something
usually mentioned in conver-sation.
Sam McGeever, a history junior, said he thought it was awesome that there is a member of the UNT faculty who chases storms.
“I wouldn’t necessari ly expect it from an English professor, but if my career was in education I would have to do something like awesome like storm chasing to not go crazy,” he said.
Ma g l ioc c o sa id he i s currently working on a creative nonfiction book and hopes to have it published soon.
“I don’t have any plans to stop,” Magliocco said. “I don’t suppose I’ll ever stop.”
and prepare programs for resi-dents.
“Programs are a big deal,” Antwine said. “They determine how your residents feel about you and allows you both to get to know each other.”
With the daily tasks at hand, RAs also have to make sure their residents are transi-tioning well into college life, both socially and mentally.
“I think RAs are extremely important,” said interdisci-plinary studies junior Rebecca Absalon. “If my RA had never knocked on my door, I would’ve probably never come out of my room.”
Sarah Amberson, a special assistant for Resident Life, said she believes RAs play an important role in a student’s freshman year.
“RAs are extremely impor-tant in a student’s freshman year,” Amberson said. “But it’s also up to the student to take advantage of the programs and resources RAs provide.”
Residents who a re ver y responsive to their RA’s influ-ence are the ones who benefit the most from being there, Absalon said.
“I’m an RA because I’m a
people person,” Antwine said. “I love responsibility and I don’t know what I’d do without it. I’m here to shape a student’s first-year experience and I love being able to help out.”
Radio, television and film freshman Sean Stapp said he plans to apply to become an RA because of his fascination with the idea of becoming the “go-to guy” of his hall.
“I was one of the people who got to room with an RA for the first week,” Stapp said. “He told me it would be good for me because I would just sit in the hall and got to know everyone.”
Students who are interested in becoming a resident assis-tant can visit http://unt.edu/housing for more information on job opportunities.
“You have to have a passion for working w ith people,” Amberson said. “Obviously the job has its benefits, like ful l room and board, and people are initially interested based on its benefits. But you have to have to the passion to make the benefits worth it. Involvement in your hall or on campus is important.”
RAs are trained to handle c e r t a i n s i t u a t ion s t h a t freshmen may come across and are looked to for guid-ance.
“Everyone has their own perception of them being an RA,” Absalon said. “But to me, I’m the big sister of 36 girls.”

After two weekends off from racing and three of the hardest weeks of training, the Mean Green cross country teams will test their endurance on Saturday at the Centenary Invitational in Shreveport, La.
UNT will compete against several Division I programs, such as the Centenary College of Louisiana, Grambling State University, Northwestern State University of Louisiana and Louisiana Tech University amongst smaller schools as well.
The team is completing the third week of high-mileage
training this week before the meet, head coach Sam Burroughs said.
“We’ve been training our butts off,” Burroughs said. “This is the hardest week they’ve had the whole season. It’s kind of tough ‘cause I know the kids want to rest up and run real fast, but we’re going to have to push through this week.”
Men Top runners senior Patrick
Strong and freshmen Wade Denton, Adrian Nevarez and Matt Russ will represent the Mean Green alongside juniors Dane Conley and Nick Mahoy, sophomore Michael Ortiz and freshman Eric Thompson.
The men will be on the lookout for Grambling. The Tigers’ Darwin Price, Jr. was named the Southwestern Athletic Conference’s Athlete of the Week last week after he ran his team to first place at the NSU Invitational by completing the 8K race in 26:31.
The men will run an 8K on Saturday, their longest race of the season.
“I’ve been tired almost every day. These past few weeks have been extremely hard for us – more mileage and tougher work-outs,” Nevarez said. “We can do pretty fine [this weekend]. We’ve all been sticking to our workouts and everyone has been doing their part.”
WomenKey assets seniors Sallie
Anderson, Ingrid Mollenkopf and junior Sara Dietz will carry UNT, with junior Amy Alcala and freshmen Elyssa Garcia and Chynna Hart also attending.
The women’s main concen-tration will be catching NSU. The Demons’ Karensa Ellis won the Southland Conference Cross Country Athlete of the Week award last week after running the 6K in 23:33.5 at the NSU Invitational. Ellis has finished first among the Lady Demons in every race she has competed in.
The women will also tackle the longest race of the season in a 6K run rather than the typical
5K course. Mollenkopf says this meet
will be harder since the team will run a longer course and is tired from tough workouts. However, they have been running higher mileage to prepare.
“I think we’ll definitely do better time-wise. I don’t know place-wise, but time-wise defi-nitely,”
Mollenkopf said. “I want us to place at least top three, and I want everyone to PR.”
Despite the teams’ potential competition and fatigue, the meet still looks promising.
“I think we can win it. Again, if we were fresh, I know we could win it, but we’re not going
to be [that] fresh. So, it’s going to be close,” Burroughs said. “But, I think there’s a shot to still win it. If we don’t win, we’re going to get second.”
The Mean Green is focusing more on the Sun Belt Conference meet in two weeks.
“I think our team’s about the same in strength as it was last year with the kids who gradu-ated out and the new kids who arrived,” Burroughs said. “As far as trying to predict where they’re going to finish within the conference, I think they’re going to be about the same as they were last year.”
UNT will kick off at the Centenary Invitational at 9 a.m. Saturday in Shreveport, La.

Riding a four-game winning streak, the UNT soccer team returns home to face t he number-two team in the Sun Belt in Florida International a nd Flor ida At la nt ic t his weekend.
As the third-ranked club in the Sun Belt, the Mean Green (9-5-1, 4-2-0) can jump the Panthers (8-5-1, 5-1-0) for second place with a win and will be the favorite when it takes on the eighth-place Owls (4-9-0, 3-3-0).
“We’ve got ou r l i neup sorted out, we know what system we want to play with and we’re playing smarter than we have been,” head coach John Hedlund said. “This is the best we’ve played and that’s why we have won four straight.”
The contests could have playof f i mpl ic at ion s, a s UNT can secure a spot in the conference tournament with a weekend sweep and some help from other Sun
Belt teams.The Panthers haven’t been
as successful as last year’s team that won the regular-season conference title, but will be UNT’s greatest chal-lenge yet.
FIU plays a similar style to UNT, focusing on possession of the ball and keeping the game in its hands.
“They play a lot like we do,” junior forward Nikki Crocco said. “It will be interesting because we have so much in common, but I feel like we’re ready.”
W h i le P a nt h e r c o a c h Thomas Chestnutt has only been at the helm for two years, the recruiting of players from outside the U.S. has helped the program rise .
“He’s broug ht i n some r e a l l y s p e c i a l p l a y e r s ,” Hedlund said. “He went the foreign route and he’s got a few players from Brazil who are really good on the ball.”
UNT won’t be as tested against an Owls team that has dropped three of its last
four – but as the season comes to a close, each game has an added impor ta nce to t he players.
“We’re not looking ahead at all and are making sure we take it one game at a time,” Crocco said.
Friday’s contest against FIU will be senior night, where goalkeeper Mandy Hall and forward Dani Watson will be honored before the game.
“Mandy and Dani are both great teammates who I’m going to miss next season,” sophomore midfielder Ellen Scarfone said. “They’ve been a huge part of the success we’ve had this year.”
The Mean Green has history on its side, owning a 4-0 all-time record over the Owls and going unbeaten against the Panthers in the teams’ last nine meetings.
Play against FIU begins at 6 p.m. on Friday and UNT closes the weekend at 1 p.m. on Sunday against the Owls at the North Texas Soccer Field.
UNT women’s golf falls short of third-straight title
By BoBBy lewiSStaff Writer
The Mean Green women’s golf team came up short in its effort to win its third consecutive tournament, finishing fifth in Price’s New Mexico State Collegiate on Wednesday in Las Cruces, N.M.
The team was paced by juniors Kelsey Kipp and Addison Long, who shot a 2-over par 218 and 3-over par 219, respectively. Kipp’s efforts were good enough to notch her third top-10 f inish of the year, while Long finished just behind, tied for 11th place.
Tournament host New Mex ico State took t he victory with a team total of 2-over par 866. UNT shot a third round of 300 to finish the tournament with a team score of 888.
Besides the New Mexico State Aggies, t he Mean Green also finished behind Baylor, Mississippi State and Texas-El Paso.

early hole after the first round, head coach Jef f Mitchel l said.
“ W e p l a y e d s o m e outstanding golf at times and we really kind of stunk it up at others,” Mitchell said. “The NMSU University golf course is not hard when you are keeping it in play off the tee. Problem is, we didn’t do that as well as we have been.”
UNT was in fifth place after its up-and-down play in the first round.
T he tea m was able to improve on its position in the second round of the tourna-ment, closing the gap between the Mean Green and first place to only eight strokes with a score of 292.
However, the team had its worst round of the tournament on the final day, shooting a 300 to fall back into fifth place.
“[Wednesday] was a tough day,” Mitchell said. “We strug-gled quite a bit and I think we were just trying a litt le too hard. I am disappointed
in where we finished, but I am not disappointed in this team.”
Although the team wasn’t able to continue its perfect start, Mitchell does see some positives in the team’s disap-pointing rounds.
“This will be a good learning experience for us. A l itt le adversity can go a long way,” he said.
Senior Chandra Alexander led the way for UNT during the third day, posting an even-par 72 to secure her place in the top 20. The team’s freshmen, Taylor Kilponen anwd Chaslyn Chrismer, both shot a 77 in the final round, to finish with scores of 231 and 234, respec-tively.
Freshman Katie Pa xton, who played the tournament as an independent, shot a final round of 79 to end the tourna-ment at 234.
The team will be back in action on Oct. 30 in Ft. Myers, Fla. for the FIU Pat Bradley Invitational.

At the young age of 14, UNT senior men’s cross country runner Patrick Strong of New Zealand knew he would have to live a life dedicated to hard training and continuous improvement.
His nine years of training have definitely paid off as he boasts maintaining the top scorer posi-tion for the Mean Green since his freshman year of 2007 in all of his 17 races and counting.
“I was terrible,” Strong said of his performance when he first began running. “I improved with lots of training.”
For Strong, running is more than just something at which he excels.
“I don’t think [running’s] something you can do if you don’t enjoy it,” he said.
New ZealandStrong was born in Motueka,
New Zealand, a small town about 20 miles away from Nelson.
His success can be attrib-uted to his former coach, Greg Lautenslager of Nelson. Lautenslager, a four-time U.S. Olympic Trials competitor, was raised in Dallas and coached the Mean Green cross country team from 1998-2001.
Lautenslager, Nelson’s Sports Coach of the Year for four consec-utive years, coached Strong from 2003-2006 while Strong ran for Lautenslager’s club team, Athletics Nelson.
Under Lautenslager’s training
Patrick Strong: cross country’s weight bearer
program, Strong developed into one of the top junior runners in New Zealand, his former coach said.
A year prior to running for Lautenslager, Strong ran the 3000 M in 10:15. By 2005, Strong’s time improved to 8:49.
The same year Strong ran the 8000 M in 26:15, placing third in the men’s under-20 age group at the New Zealand Cross Country Championships at Rabbit Island. Under Lautenslager’s guidance, he placed fourth in 15:03 in the 5,000 M at the 2006 Club Cross Country Nationals.
“He is strong physically and mentally. He possesses very strongly what I call the four Ds of success: determination, dedi-cation, discipline and desire,” Lautenslager said on what makes Strong stand out among other athletes. “He’s not afraid to train hard, and will do everything it takes to be successful.”
The United StatesRobert Vaughan, a former
UNT distance coach, recruited Strong in January of 2007.
“He wants to do well. He’s not there just to get the scholarship,”
Vaughan said. “School’s not very hard for him, so he likes to find challenge in training.”
Strong placed fourth at the 2007 Sun Belt Conference Championships, receiving his first all-conference cross country honors. He also earned the SBC Freshman of the Year title.
The following year, he improved to receive third at the SBC Championships, clocking 25:26.41 to earn his second all-conference honor. Under Vaughan, Strong represented the Mean Green at the 2008 NCAA South Central Regionals meet,
Athlete of the Week: Jackson anchors UNT’s defense
where he was named to the all-regional team by placing 20th in 31:39.0.
In 2009, Strong’s fifth-place finish at the SBC Championships earned him his third consecutive all-conference honor. He placed 18th at the NCAA Regionals meet, receiving his second all-regional honors.
Both Lautenslager and Strong share the experience of training under Vaughan. Lautenslager sent Strong to Vaughan at UNT in 2007 first and foremost for educational priorities.
“UNT is an excellent school and coach Watkins has an excel-lent track program,” Lautenslager said. “With Robert, he couldn’t find a better coach. It’s unfor-tunate Robert has left, but I have faith in coach Watkins to have hired a good coach to replace Robert and guide Patrick to reach his goals this season.”
St rong t ra i ned u nder Vaughan’s program for three years and a similar program under Lautenslager for four years. This season he made the transition to a completely new program under new coach Sam Burroughs.
Despite the unfamiliarity, Strong is proving his excellence. He finished sixth at the first meet and second at the second meet this season as the Mean Green’s top runner for both races. He took first place at UNT’s only home meet of the season to help his team win it all.
His goal for his final season is
to win conference and qualify for regionals, he said.
Although Strong is the top performer for the Mean Green, he contributes more than just points to the team.
“He’s an amazing guy. He’s very kind-hearted,” freshman Adrian Nevarez said. “He puts his heart into cross country. He tries to get to know you and to help you out however he can.”
Junior teammate Amy Alcala agrees.
“He’s really supportive. You can go to him for anything, and he’ll tell you exactly what he thinks. He’s really knowledgeable about running,” Alcala said.
Outside of running, Strong enjoys exercising his brain. He likes reading with the purpose of learning new things and taking in knowledge that’s worthwhile, he said.
Strong will graduate in May of 2011 with a bachelor’s degree in geography and a minor in philos-ophy. While his goals for the season are set, his post-gradua-tion plans are still uncertain.
Strong is still deliberating whether or not he will return home or continue with his educa-tion for his master’s degree. The one thing he is sure of is that he will continue running, wherever his future may take him.
This week, he is concentrating on the Centenary Invitational on Saturday in Shreveport, La., the team’s last meet before the Sun Belt Conference Championships.

Throughout the mangled streets of Denton, “Bessie” stands out from the rest of the mundane vehicles that stroll through the avenues of the city. She is a candy-apple red 1988 Chevrolet Caprice Classic that belongs to senior defensive tackle Kelvin Jackson.
Jackson gives “Bessie” the finer things, equipping her with 22-inch rims, an exquisite collec-tion of speakers and a 20-inch television screen that comes out of the ceiling.
“Bessie to me has always been like that good woman that you have that is willing to not only look good, but she’s willing to go out there and cut the grass,” Jackson said.
His vehicle is not the only thing doing the dirty work when necessary, as Jackson has found his way into opposing back-fields this season, racking up 27 tackles, including three that were for a loss. The senior picked
up two sacks last week against Arkansas State, making him only the 17th player since 1988 to pick up multiple sacks in the same game for the Mean Green.
Listed at 6-foot 3-inches and 310 pounds, Jackson is more than a handful for opposing offen-sive linemen. While he may be able to bench press 460 pounds, Jackson spent a lot of time over the summer working on his speed and agility, head coach Todd Dodge said.
“He’s the strongest guy on our football team and that’s been that way since he stepped on campus,” Dodge said. “He’s a real steadying force for our defense.”
J a c k s o n h a i l s f r o m Hermanville, Miss., an unin-corporated town in Claiborne County where there really isn’t much to do. At Itawamba Community College, Jackson amassed 41 tackles, earning him All-MACJC North Second Team honors.
From there, the Mississippi native traveled 429 miles away from home to attend UNT, where he has become an integral part of the defensive line.
“When I was a freshman, I was away from home, and it was
hard,” Jackson said. “There were some rough, rough nights. But now things are better because I’m older.”
In his short time at UNT, things have been far from easy. Last
year, Jackson suffered an elbow injury prior to the start of the season that caused him to miss some field time. The Mean Green has not been able to find success often over the last two years, winning three games.
“On Saturday, winning is like that goal,” Jackson said. “It’s kind of like getting paid. Losing is just hard when you went out that whole week, and you worked hard that whole week, and then you lose.”
Despite the tough circum-stances UNT faces on a weekly basis, Jackson serves as a leader to a defensive unit that is allowing 26.7 points per game, the second fewest in the conference.
Instead of being loud and brash, he chooses to set an example through his actions on and off the field.
“I always feel like a leader is a person who practices what they preach,” Jackson said. “Guys see me running, they see me doing what it takes to be a good player. I always try to show them the way to do things.”
Pursuing a degree in sociology, Jackson is currently scheduled to graduate in December, when he will take some time to train and work out in hopes of being able to play football professionally.
No matter what he decides to tackle next in his life, Janie Reynolds, Jackson’s godmother, believes that he will be able to succeed.
“He’s the type that didn’t give up,” Reynolds said. “Nothing could beat him. He felt like he could conquer anything. If you tell him he couldn’t do some-thing, he did it.”
Patrick Strong, a geography senior from Mapua, New Zealand, placed � fth at the Sun Belt Conference Championship in 2009 to earn all-conference honors for a third consecutive season. Strong plans to graduate in May and return to UNT for his master’s degree in the fall.
Senior defensive tackle Kelvin Jackson sets up in his three-point stance. Jackson sacked the quarterback twice against Arkansas State, making him the 17th player since 1988 to record two or more sacks in a game.

To the Editor,
This semester, students have been coming together to stomp out coal on the UNT campus. It is time that a l l students come out to help us get rid of this nasty
problem. The UNT campus gets nearly 50 percent of its electrical power on campus from burning coal. This is a problem because burning coal destroys ecosystems, pollutes our air and water, and causes several deaths and illnesses
every year. So what can we do about it?
Sign one of the Beyond Coal petitions going around campus stating that our student body not only wants but will also push for this change. Coal is burned everyday and this
won’t stop until we force it off of our campus. If we do this, not only will we be helping ourselves, but our environ-ment as well.
Sincerely,Trey Thomas

S.H.O.P. program promotes Denton
A vote for Kathie Glass isn’t a waste
Editorial
{
{{
Campus ChatDo you shop locally around Denton? Why or why not?
“Yes, I shop at Voertman’s because they have a good selection of high-quality art supplies and it’s really
close by.”
“Yes, because I don’t have a car and the stores aren’t
too bad.”
“No, because I can’t find the time to shop.”
The city of Denton is trying to combat the reported “Great Recession” by the creation of a grassroots program named Shop Here On Purpose. The program’s goal is to promote the positive impacts of shopping in Denton. About 1.5 percent of the sales tax of 8.25 percent goes to community services such as police, fire, libraries, streets, parks and employee salaries. While Denton is becoming a retail destination, his program is the city’s response to still dwindling money caused by the recession.
The Editorial Board believes residents of Denton and students at UNT need to support the S.H.O.P. program because any purchase positively impacts the community. Twenty-four percent of the city’s budget is supported by sales tax, and an increase in local retail would help the local economy.
With the national economy’s recent struggles, Denton’s focus is opposite the national government’s. Outsourcing to other countries, refusing to act on the recent outcry over the foreclosure crisis and lack of emphasis on buying American products have continued to prolong the national economic crisis. Denton, however, is trying to promote positive growth from inside, and more cities should follow its lead.
The City Council helped spread the word by encouraging Denton businesses to participate in the program, which launched on Sept. 30, at the Mayor-Council Breakfast held at the new Sam’s Club in Denton. Businesses are placing the logo around their stores to help spread the word. This campaign also extends to major commercial chains, such as the local Wal-Mart and Sam’s Club.
The influx of retail in Lewisville pulls a significant amount of income from sales from the city of Denton, despite a thriving downtown scene.
Many people think they need to travel to Lewisville to eat at restaurants or shop at retail stores. However, Denton has a large restaurant and retail scene. University Drive has been growing fast and Loop 288 has a wide range of retail varying from Best Buy to Super Target, not to mention, that the down-town area has a wide array of interesting, unusual, locally-owned shops.
Every time a Denton resident or student purchases some-thing in Lewisville, revenue is taken away from Denton. If people would stay in Denton and take advantage of the abun-dance of retail here, the city would receive the revenue from the sales tax they spent and, in turn, residents would receive the benefits through public works.
I would like to start off by saying that if you’re a Bill White supporter this column isn’t as much aimed at you as it is for those who are voting for Perry, although I will also address you in this piece. I’m writing to make the case that you should vote for the third-party Libertarian candidate Kathie Glass.
Ma ny Republ ica ns a nd conservatives are voting for Rick Perry because they feel that Democrats are spending too much money, driving us further into debt, and have a l lowed for corruption to run rampant through the part y. So the Perr y voter votes Republican as a sort of knee-jerk reaction to this problem.
But here are a few things for the Perry voter to consider — Rick Perry hasn’t come out for a single debate with any of his opposing candidates. Perry announced he would run for re-election in April of 2008. He has not debated his oppo-nents since. That is unfath-omable. That is outrageous. I can’t believe such a man, who holds the governorship of Texas, could get away with such a blatant travesty.
Why is Perry not debating? Is it merely arrogance, or is there something more? What is he afraid of being asked? I also have to question how consistent conservatives are when they claim to be anti-incumbent and anti-career politician but persist in voting for a governor who’s running for his third term and has been rated one of the “11 worst governors in America” by the Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington.
Don’t get me wrong; if you’re conservative, I’m not attacking you, but I am pleading for consistency. If you truly are anti-incumbent and anti-ca-reer politician, and all you want to do is keep taxes and government small in Texas, a vote for Kathie Glass is a vote for you. Granted, she’s not Republican, but she’s very serious about cutting spending within the state.
For example, Glass would like to severely reduce the amount of toll roads in Texas, making travel cheaper for resi-dents and also making the state more tourist-friendly.
Why won’t Perry at least give her the time of day to discuss an idea as simple
as that? Even conservatives must reluctantly agree that the arrogant Perry is no match in virtue to Glass, although he has more money.
As for my Democrat readers who plan to vote for Bi l l W hite, I can understand. He’s a very likeable candidate and I haven’t heard anything negative about him as far as corruption is concerned. But I’m a little worried about the policies he’ll enact because I don’t know the specifics of what they are. Upon looking at the economy section of his website, I could only find an average of two paragraphs written per issue.
Since our nation is going through a tough recession, I would like to see not only more written about the economy on White’s website but also for it to be more detailed. That’s really my only problem with White. I feel he is vague and too generic, and I don’t feel l ike I k now exact ly what he would do if he became governor.
However, let me say this to the Bil l W hite voter: If you’re vot i ng Democ r at because you’re more liberal socially and not necessarily
l ibera l economica l ly, you might consider Glass. As a Libertarian, Glass believes that you should have the freedom to practice whatever lifestyle you wish, as long as it doesn’t harm another person or their property. Kathie Glass brings positions to the table that both sides can agree with — economic and social freedom.
If you would like to know more about Libertarians, visit www.lp.org, www.lptexas.org, and if you would like to check out Kathie Glass as a candi-date, visit www.kathie4guv.com.

Sudoku requires no calculation or arithmetic skills. It is essentially a game of placing numbers in squares, using very simple rules of logic and deduction.
The objective of the game is to fi ll all the blank squares in a game with the correct numbers. There are three very simple constraints to follow. In a 9 by 9 square Sudoku game: • Every row of 9 numbers must in-clude all digits 1 through 9 in any order • Every column of 9 numbers must include all digits 1 through 9 in any order • Every 3 by 3 subsection of the 9 by 9 square must include all digits 1 through 9
