After a year and a half of heated debate, the Student Government Association is bringing the issue of homecoming reform back to student voters pending approval by the SGA president.

The SGA student senate voted on a referendum Wednesday that gives students the chance to vote on how the homecoming court will appear in coming years.

One option allows home-coming court hopefuls to run as individuals, competing for the position of homecoming nobles. The second option allows couples of any gender or orienta-tion to run. Both options would allow candidates to specify if they wish to hold gender-neu-tral titles, such as Homecoming Nobles or Winners, or traditional titles such as Homecoming King and Queen.

“The first option that we were going to vote on in the

senate, I had some reserva-tions about because it took a lot of the student vote out of the matter,” said Patrick Hopkins, a senator for the College of Arts and Sciences. “This is a little bit of genius. This is the perfect amount of compromise without breeching traditions that home-coming is supposed to stand for.”

The referendum now goes to SGA President Kevin Sanders for approval. Once approved, students will be given the chance to vote on which option they would like in a special election the week of April 18.

Calls for reform of the current homecoming election system were first raised in September 2009 when campus and regional activist groups argued gay, lesbian, bisexual and trans-gender students were marginal-ized and not afforded the oppor-tunity to participate.

Julie Leary, the vice president

of Glad: UNT’s Queer Alliance, said that both choices students will vote on alleviates the GLBT community’s concerns and is a large step for equality both at UNT and in Texas.

“We live in this little bubble of Denton where being gay is kind of accepted, but we still live in Texas,” Leary said. “If we can change just one small thing to make people understand that being gay is okay, then we can change the world.”

The main contention some students and SGA members raised with the referendum was that it did not include the option to keep the current home-coming system — an option UNT students approved in an October 2009 referendum.

SGA presidential candidate Blake Windham was among those arguing for an option to keep the current system.

On Friday, the shops off the Denton Square will stay open later than usual.

Denton will have its monthly First Friday on the Square and Industrial Street area.

Live music, sculptures, stained glass, appetizers and art will be available until 9 p.m. instead of the regular 6 p.m.

For First Friday, art galleries and businesses stay open longer to give shoppers an opportunity to admire and buy art.

Several communities and countries have their own First Friday or First Thursday each

Monthly event promotes art purchases in Denton

month, which is where the idea came from.

Shannon Drawe, a photogra-

pher and UNT alumnus, said he helped start Denton’s First Friday in in February 2010. He and his

wife, Leslie Kregel, thought it would be great to increase awareness of the communi-ty’s artistic talent and culture, Kregel said.

Drawe contacted sources and created the website first-fridaydenton.com to establish the event.

“First Friday has no boss, no president. I’m just in charge of the website and building it into something because I started it,” Drawe said.

Kregel’s business, Cimarrona, sells hats, scarves and warm clothing recycled from old clothes.

“What we hope is [to gain] a

little more visibility and have the public more aware of art culture in Denton that isn’t always recognized,” Kregel said.

Merchants join with artists to help promote art and busi-nesses. For example, an artist looking for a place to display his or her work could contact a coffee shop owner willing to host the artist, Kregel said.

Heath Robinson, a pharmacy junior, thinks the event will bring attention to the creativity the community has to offer.

“I think it’s a good way to increase the exposure of the arts in Denton,” Robinson said.

Robin Huttash owns A

Creative Art STUDIO, one of the businesses that has been a part of First Friday since it started.

Huttash said her main goal is providing music for the event each month.

On Friday, Alex Riegelman, a local guitarist and blues singer, will play in A Creative Art STUDIO.

Keri Zimlich, a journalism junior, said she thinks the event is a great opportunity to have fun.

“It’s not just one shop, but all the shops getting together to rekindle that love of art,” Zimlich said.

Dance students perform “The Itch,” choreographed by dance senior Anna Olvera, at a rehearsal for the New Choreogra-phers Concert.

BY TARYN WALKERIntern

Months of hard work all come down to one night.

Senior dance students will display their original works on Friday for the first time at the New Choreographers Concert. The concert will start at 8 p.m. in the University Theatre in the Radio, Television, Film and Performing Arts Building.

General admission is $5 and tickets can be purchased at the box office, over the phone, at the door and in advance.

Students enrolled in dance professor Shelley Cushman’s senior projects class are required to choreograph or perform in the concert. They also can complete a research study in fieldwork.

“Their work is a culmination to demonstrate the knowledge they have acquired through the course of their study,” Cushman said.

Cushman, the artistic director of the concert, is known for her background in dance. She

earned the 2010 University Dance Educator of the Year from the National Dance Association.

“They have to create a product, which the public is invited to see, and in this process they have to solve all of the problems they are given in order to create this work of art,” she said.

In the class, students learn about dynamics, unity, variety, content, form and theme, Cushman said.

From the 10 choreographed works at the concert, two dance pieces were chosen to represent UNT at the American College Dance Festival, including Amelia Wert’s “The Television is Watching Me Again” and Cassie Farzan Panah’s “Gravity of Deception.”

“I set out with this image of a motel. I was interested in doing something different,” Wert said. “I thought about the idea of why people would want to stay at a motel and wondered what they felt.”

Wert’s modern piece includes

nine dancers accompanied by focused lighting to make it seem as if they are each in their own motel room. Each dancer is isolated from the others and dances with minimalistic move-ment for a strong impact. The themes include love, loss, isola-tion and insomnia, which are overlaid by the glow of a tele-vision.

“It’s a good program. We have some amazing faculty that have really pushed us far,” Wert said.

All 56 dancers were chosen from the dance department by advanced choreography students. Some choreographers also decided to dance. Cushman allowed students to perform if they were up for the challenge.

Rachel Caldwell choreo-graphed “Certain Uncertainty” and is also performing in “Guess Who’s Not Coming to Dinner,” choreog raphed by A nna Womack.

In Caldwell’s choreography, dancers explore the experi-

Seniors to debut their dance works Friday

ence of being blind by wearing blindfolds. In 28 rehearsals, the four dancers adapted to their hearing and touching senses to help them through the modern piece. Caldwell also worked with music student Ryan Pivovar to compose a song of looped cello

harmonies. Caldwell said her piece is about

blindness as an experience, not a handicap.

“I was in my modern class last semester and we would lie on the ground and shut our eyes. I wondered if I could capture a

feeling of dance with touch and sound rather than with sight,” Caldwell said.

The concert will also be held at 8 p.m. Saturday and at 2:30 p.m. Sunday in the University Theatre. For more information, visit www.danceandtheatre.unt.edu.

On Wednesday, in the Daily’s “North Texas Health For u m t ic k e t s e x c e e d expectat ions” stor y, the Daily misidentified Susan Jackson as Sudan Jackson. T he Da i ly reg ret s t h is error.

In last week’s Wednesday edition of the Daily’s Editorial Board, the Daily misidentified Kellie Hill. She is the director of Campus Involvement for the Student Government Association. The Daily regrets the error.

CorrectionBY ABIGAIL ALLENViews Editor

A Facebook message was sent to about 4,000 members of a group called “The University of North Texas” endorsing a pair of candi-dates for Student Government Association president and vice president earlier this week.

The group’s creator, Jeff Kline, a former SGA president and UNT alumnus, sent the message Monday afternoon, strongly encouraging students to vote for Sarah Fox and Sean Smallwood in the SGA elections this week. The message detailed the voting process and offered a link students could follow to vote.

“I like their views on issues,” Kline said. “And I think they have what it takes to lead the student body.”

When asked about the message, Fox and Smallwood said the endorsement came as a surprise.

“First, I was confused by who Jeff Kline was, and second, I was worried that all of the people that he sent it out to thought I told him to do it,” said Fox, a development and family studies junior.

Smallwood, a political science sophomore, said he was origi-nally worried about whether the endorsement could hurt his and Fox’s chance to win.

ReactionThe three other presidential

candidates said they thought Kline’s decision to send the message was questionable, and

two suggested it might have been because both Kline and Smallwood are members of Theta Chi.

“One of the main reasons that he did it was because Sean is a fraternity brother,” said Kellie Hill, a presiden-tial candidate and advertising junior.

In a separate interview, Fox said she agreed the connection might have influenced Kline’s choice. When asked about the connection, Kline declined to comment.

“The average voter might, you know, see that page and

assume that it’s the UNT Facebook page,” said presiden-tial candidate Blake Windham, a biology senior.

Kline said that although he has allowed others to manage it in the past, the group is his.

“I created the group back in 2007,” he said. “It’s my personal group, and I have just loaned it to the university and to different entities whenever I wanted to. It’s not an official university group. It never has been.”

Kline, now a law student at Oklahoma City University, also specified that the official name of UNT is “University of North Texas” without a “the.” He said the legal distinction allows him to use that group name.

Kevin Sanders, the current SGA president, said he was removed as an administrator of the group Monday.

Endorsing a ca nd idate was inappropriate, as was removing other administra-tors, said Kellie Hill, a presi-dential candidate and adver-tising junior.

“It didn’t feel right for an ex-president of SGA to [pick a ticket to back],” said presiden-tial candidate Valerie Gonzalez, a public relations junior.

Kline said he has endorsed candidates in previous SGA elections without problem.

Facebook specificsAs of 4 p.m. Wednesday, 414

people had opened the message and 11 had clicked on the link to the SGA website, said Landon Sloan, a social media strategist

for UNT.Sloan said there are more than

10,000 Facebook groups or pages with “UNT” in the name, and specified that www.facebook.com/northtexas is the official UNT Facebook page.

Sloan said he thought the message identified that it was from Kline and that there was a “clear separation” between the official page and the unofficial group, but added that he planned to contact Kline about removing UNT’s official seal as the group’s photo.

“UNT as a Facebook page would not endorse a specific candidate or partnership [of] candidates,” Sloan said.

Kline sent out a message at 7 p.m. Wednesday specifying the group’s purpose and supplying the link to the official UNT Facebook page. The group’s picture was also changed from the UNT seal to a picture of the North Texas logo with the eagle on a green background.

SGA responseSanders said he respectfully

disagreed with Kline’s actions, calling it a “misrepresentation of the office.”

Melissa McGuire, the director of orientation and transition programs for the Department of Student Development and the SGA adviser, said she felt it was an expression of Kline’s freedom of speech.

“He has the right to say what he wants and do what he wants,” she said.

SGA presidential candidate

“This is a democracy,” Windham said. “We need to give people all possible opt ion s. We’re k idd i ng ou r s e l v e s i f w e t h i n k that’s what going on in the senate.”

Senators in favor of the referendum said that, with the second option, students would still have the prefer-ence of running as tradi-tional couples.

“What this option does is still allow the current system to happen, but it has the best interest of every student at heart,” said Sean Smallwood, a vice-presidential candidate and senator for the College of Arts and Sciences who co-aut hored t he leg isla-tion.

Parking at UNTJoe Richmond, the director

of parking and transporta-tion, informed senators and students at the meeting that commuters and residents wil l pay more to park on campus next year.

Richmond said general p a r k i n g p e r m i t s w i l l increase from $115 to $135

a year, residential permits will increase from $180 to $250 a year, and premium permits will increase from $180 to $250 a year. Faculty and staff permits are also increasing, but Richmond did not specify by how much. He said the new prices are to help pay for improvements to the parking situation on campus.

“We’re going to add a new garage — 950 new spaces,” Richmond said. “In order to pay for that, we have to raise money.”

R i c h m o n d s a i d t h e proposed semester rate for pa rk i ng i n t he new parking garage will be $350 a semester, and w il l st i l l feature daily rates, similar to the existing parking garage. He did not say whet her daily rates would remain the same. Daily rates for the existing parking garage are $10, and semester rates are $300. Richmond said, despite the increases, the price of parking at UNT is remains relatively low.

“We’ve done our research, and [parking] is pretty cheap compared to other universi-ties,” Richmond said.

However, A rcer i sa id Apogee’s job is to prevent any violation of the act.

“We send a not ice to the student by email, and 24 hours af ter wards the Internet is automatically shut off,” said Arceri.

Ariel Smith, a radio, tele-vision and film freshman, said she gets most of her music online.

File sharing will continue to be a way for students to get their entertainment, she said.

“I pay for movies but I get most of my music online,” Smith said. “But I think it’s a lways going to happen. Music is not meant to be purchased. There’s not a market for it anymore.”

E m m a W a r r e n , a n anthropolog y junior and desk clerk at the Chilton Media Library, said she is not against file sharing as long as students don’t make money off of it.

“I understand why it’s i l lega l and t he negative aspects of doing it,” Warren said. “But as long as you’re just doing it for yourself or for a friend, it’s fine.”

Sharing and listening to a pirated song may lead her to buy it later, she said.

“I like to listen to some-thing first, and if I really like it, I’ll go buy it,” Warren said.

She said she understands people will face consequences if they download or upload music because it is illegal.

“But it’s also a privacy issue,” said Warren. “Your computer is your personal property — why do they have that right?”

A student is caught illegally sharing music and movie files, commonly known as “pirating,” through the Internet on campus nearly every day.

The Information Technology department gets at least one email per day or four to five emails per week concerning illegal file sharing, said Shea Rodgers, the information tech-nology manager for student housing.

“It’s absolutely illegal and wrong, and the university is trying hard to stamp it out,” Rodgers said. “It is a big liability for UNT if it allows this.”

Illegal file sharing on campus is a breach of the residence code of conduct that each student agrees to when they subm it t hei r appl icat ion, Rodgers said.

T h e f i r s t of f e n s e f or f i le sharing is a $100 f ine a nd dow n loaded f i les a re removed from the comput-er’s hard drive. After a second offense, the student’s Internet w il l be shut dow n perma-nently and they must appear before Student Rights and Responsibilities.

“Housing is trying very hard to take a proactive role to make sure students are abiding by the law,” he said.

Rodgers said the school’s Inter net is mon itored by Apogee, a compa ny t hat represents media copyright holders.

Steve Arceri, a customer ser v ice representat ive for Apogee, said the problem is not downloading f i les, but uploading them.

Uploading files is in direct v iol at ion of t he D ig it a l Mil lennium Copy right Act of 1998, which clearly states that f i le sharing is against that law.

“There’s obv iously a lot of debate about whether it’s illegal or not,” said Arceri.

“[File sharing is] absolutely illegal and wrong, and the university is trying hard to stamp it out.”

A new landscaping project in front of Centaur Apartments near the intersection of Eagle Drive and Welch Street is being moved because it violates city code.

An old blue Ford Galaxie protrudes from a deep pile of dirt in front of the apartments as part of an eco-friendly project taken on by the company Iconic Development.

“They take older buildings and revamp them and put in efficient lighting,” said Brier Lee, a leasing agent at Place to Be Properties. “The reason they picked the car is because the apartment is going to be called Crash Pads.”

Besides the apartment name, the car was picked for another reason.

“The automobile was going to be dumped in a landfill, and we wanted to reduce and reuse it as a sculpture,” said Bo Parfet, the co-creator of Iconic Development.

The company responsible for the quirky garden is Austin-based Plantsmith Gardens.

However, the eclectic car

‘Junk’ car acts as garden decorationgarden, now accompanied by patterns of plants and flowers, will soon be relocated due to city code violations.

“They will have to remove it because it is considered a ‘junk vehicle’ which is not registered with the city,” said Lee. “With

the car now being non-func-tioning, they can’t register it.”

The non-functioning status of the car means its insides are void of parts that enable it to run, such as the engine, trans-mission and gas tank.

“By state law definition, it does fit the criteria of a junk vehicle,” said Jamie Wicker, the code enforcement officer super-visor for the city of Denton.

Though opinions may differ from person to person, many people appreciated the planting of the car.

“People love that it is an inspirational piece of art,” said Parfet. “We’ve had artists of all ages show up to paint it. People

have driven across the country and stopped by to see it.”

I n t h e e n d , I c o n i c Development agreed to move the vehicle.

“There is a fine line between art and junk vehicles,” said Wicker. “They have been ex t remely cooperat ive in trying to work with building inspectors to keep it.”

A sign with the apartment’s new name will replace the car.

“The plan is to abide by city code and put the car in another location, possibly somewhere else on the prop-erty away from the street,” said Parfet.

Fac eb o ok ’s p opu l a r it y among students has led one professor to incorporate the format of the social site into her curriculum.

Shari Childers of the English facult y and her col league Tracey Gau worked together to redesign their English 2210 course and created Facefolio, a site where students create a

profile for the literature char-acters they read about.

“Our goal was to engage the students with the mate-rial that they were reading and give them an opportu-nity to express their under-standing of the text in a way that is more contemporary,” Childers said.

T he project cou nt s a s extra credit and replaces a low composition grade, she said.

Adam Kullberg, an English graduate student and teaching assistant, grades students’ Facefolios.

“It’s something that people are familiar with, and also it’s a more interactive way

to learn. They come to life in a way, so you understand the character more,” Kullberg said. “It’s almost like you’re writing a little autobiography about it, but just in a different format.”

Kullberg said he will look for all the profile informa-

tion to be filled out, such as activities, relationship status, birthday, interests and news feed.

H e s a i d q u o t e s a n d remaining true to the char-acter are also key elements to a good grade.

“If it’s Odysseus, you don’t

want to make him a mean, spiteful guy when he is a heroic character,” he said.

Danil Smith, a kinesiology senior, said she had never heard of Facefolio before the class, but thought it was inter-esting and was glad to know it replaced an essay grade.

“I found things out about Persephone, a Greek goddess. She was the wife of Hades a nd t hey a re tech n ica l ly together six months out of the whole year,” Smith said. “I learned more than I needed to know.”

Andrew Franklin, a kine-siology junior, said he didn’t do the extra credit because it was time-consuming and

he has been gett ing good grades.

Facefolio was created after Childers and Gau w rote a grant proposal approved by UNT’s Center for Learning Enhancement and Redesign, a group within N-Gen that focuses on next generation course redesign, she said.

T he p a i r s p ok e w it h programmers to give details of where things should be placed and how they want them to work.

Childers said she started redesigning her English 1310 class to incorporate media games in assignments like she had done for her English 2210.

In a city filled with student apartment complexes, one la nd lord helps homeless people in Denton find a place to live.

David Dennis owns D-Quad Properties, a company that helps qualified people in need find an affordable place to stay and sponsors to pay for their housing.

How it beganDennis, 44, has lived in the

North Texas area since the ‘80s, and currently lives in Highland Village. He started D-Quad Properties in 1997 as a real estate venture to earn money for his ret irement plan.

When he started talking to people around the city, he saw a need for affordable housing for the underprivileged in Denton, he said.

People in the working class who don’t have a lot of residual income have the hardest time in a rough economy, Dennis said.

“Everyone has an idea when they think of a homeless person, and we realize that that stereotype is extremely inaccurate,” he said.

Dennis began counting the number of homeless people t hey’ve helped since last Thanksgiving. Since then, D-Quad Properties has helped nine people off the street, said

his father, David Dennis Sr.Now, D-Quad Properties

consists of seven properties and an office building, David Dennis said. At one point, there were 40 properties, but the economy and a former part-

ner’s embezzlement placed a lot of strain on the company.

The impactLisa Strickler began working

for D-Quad last fall. After her father died, Strickler

left her home and business to take of her mother. Later, her mother was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s and began acting violent toward Strickler, causing her to leave with nothing.

“I was that homeless person,” she said. “By the grace of my son, I wasn’t on the street yet.”

Chris Price, 40, has lived between Denton and Lewisville for 35 years and owned a house-framing business.

Three years ago, he had a heart attack and injured his back at work. After he went on disability and his wife left

him, he slept in his car for two weeks.

“I went from making $60,000-70,000 a year to $12,000 a year,” Price said.

Price met Dennis while staying with a friend who

lived in an apartment owned by D-Quad, he said.

“David let me move in with $200,” he said. “He worked with me [and] helped me out.”

Beyond bureaucracyMany organizations focus on

helping people under certain conditions, such as if they have a job or are on food stamps, Dennis said. These require-ments can sometimes hinder those looking for aid.

Dennis said he realized a lot of people in need of help get caught in bureaucratic twists and turns, so he wanted to make it easier for people to receive assistance.

“Usually a leap of faith has to be taken by somebody in the system,” he said. “We look for the folks who are deserving of a second chance.”

After the UNT men’s basket-ball team’s season was suddenly stopped by a last second Arkansas-Little Rock 3-pointer in its conference tournament final, fans have turned to the university’s other teams to cope with the recent tragedy.

One Mean Green team that could help fans recover is the men’s golf team, which hasn’t placed outside the Top-10 at any tournament and will compete in its conference tournament in 19 days.

While it hasn’t won a confer-ence title in eight years, the team can advance to the NCCA Regional tournament by winning the Sun Belt if it can take some key steps before tournament play.

Ortiz must be outstandingAt this point of the season,

the clear leader of the team is sophomore Carlos Ortiz. The second-year player is one of the nation’s best, ranking third in the country in par 4 scoring, 15th in the nation in fairways hit and 18th in sub par strokes.

Ortiz always starts strong and has topped the leader board after the first round in three of UNT’s

last four tournaments.The 5-foot-11-inch standout

has faltered in the later rounds, but has managed to finish in the Top-20 each time.

If UNT wants to contend for a title, Ortiz’s top-20 finishes must be replaced by placing in the Top-10.

Ortiz has proven he can play with anyone, but if he can consistently perform his best each round, UNT will walk away as Sun Belt champs in 2011.

Preventing problematic rounds

Similar to Ortiz, the Mean Green as a team has been somewhat inconsistent.

Not every team can play its best golf every round, but the Mean Green has canceled out some great golf with madden-ingly f rustrat ing perfor-mances. An example came at the Border Olympics two weeks ago when sophomore Ty Spinella hit a first round 69 and followed up with a second-round 77.

If the Mean Green could have less extreme valleys to go along with its peaks, a Top-3 result at the conference tour-nament should be expected.

A “bad” round for UNT can’t be problematic enough to keep them from competing for a tournament title.

U s e upcoming events

If there a r e a n y fundamental chinks in the Mean Green’s armor, the team has one final opportunity to work them out at the Hawkeye-TaylorMade/Adidas Invitational on April 16.

The field includes No. 12 Iowa, and will give UNT a good idea on where it stands next to out of state competition.

It’s important for head coach Brad Stracke to recognize the team’s weaknesses going in to the tournament and make them a focal point while the team competes.

There’s plenty that the Mean Green does well, but if it can pinpoint what it needs to work on and fine-tune it at the Hawkeye Tournament, it could make all the difference.

The team must be more focused on learning how to improve than winning in Iowa.

Like many other Mean Green teams this semester, the men’s golf team is a legitimate threat to take its conference title. However, that will only happen if the team improves on some levels.

Seansense: Men’s golf can improve before tournament

April and May are meaningful months for Mean Green

As the spring seasons for UNT sports come to a close, a handful of events that will

define the teams’ effort in 2011 are just around the corner. Five Mean Green teams will

contend for a title in their Sun Belt Conference Tournament between April 18 and May 15.

Freshman out� elder Jackie Miller prepares to throw the ball to her teammate during Tuesday’s practice. The Mean Green defeated the Texas-Arlington Maver-icks 1-0 Wednesday at Allan Saxe Field.

BY BOBBY LEWISSenior Staff Writer

For the first six innings of the UNT softball team’s road game against Texas-Arlington Wednesday, the Mean Green was held hitless in a score-less game.

UNT (17-20) was out-hit by UTA (26-13) 5-2, but grinded out a run in the seventh inning and earned a 1-0 victory over the Mavericks.

Mean Green sophomore pitcher Brittany Simmons and UTA freshman pitcher Callie Collins pitched complete games, but it was Collins who cracked. “[The offense] just started kind of figuring it out,” head coach T.J. Hubbard said of UNT’s offense in the seventh inning. “[Collins] threw a really good ball game. We just finally got to her a bit — at least enough to get some base runners on.”

Before the seventh inning, Collins had a no-hitter with three walks.

Senior catcher Courtney Bradshaw broke the no-hitter in the seventh, starting the inning with a single.

Ju n ior c atcher Ca it l i n Grimes followed Bradshaw’s lead by singling to right field. Junior infielder Lisa Johnson followed with a walk to load the bases for freshman third baseman Brooke Foster.

Foster put thegame’s only run on the board when she hit a

ground ball to second base. “Brooke Foster is a litt le

bit more experienced than a normal freshman, so I wasn’t surprised to see her driving the run in,” Hubbard said.

Senior pinch runner Anna Barren beat the throw to home, giving Simmons all the secu-rity she needed to shut the door on the Mavericks in the bottom of the seventh.

“Brittany was just as good as [Collins],” Hubbard said. “After

the second or third inning, she really didn’t give them much opportunity to score.”

After allowing a leadoff hit to UTA junior outfielder Kersti Rowan in the bottom of the seventh, Simmons sat down the next three UTA batters to pick up her ninth win of the season.

She walked one batter and gave up five hits in her first complete-game shutout of the season.

Playing in its final regular-season road match, the UNT tennis team w il l face the University of Texas-Arlington Mavericks at 3 p.m. at the UTA Tennis Center.

Winning three of its last four matches, the Mean Green (6-10) will try to snap UTA’s four-match winning streak.

“We’ve had some good battles the last couple of years against UTA,” said head coach Sujay Lama. “They’ve had some great wins. They’re nationally ranked now. I just look at it as a great opportunity.”

The Mavericks (13-4) started the season outside the national rankings, and is now ranked No. 58 after winning its first seven conference games .

The Mean Green has not been as fortunate, as the team started the year ranked No. 66 but has been outside the Top 75 since February.

Staying healthy has been an issue for UNT, as the team has competed with a full roster in six of 16 contests. The team is 4-2 in those matches.

“We just need to get everyone clicking all at once,” Lama said. “We have got to put the whole package together.”

Senior Madura Ranganathan has struggled to stay on the court, f ighting mononucle-osis for most of the season. After being eased back into action, Ranganathan said she is gaining confidence as she competes more.

“I’m getting much better every match,” Ranganathan sa id. “I feel l i ke I cou ld

“I’ve been going to Texas Relays since hig h school, so it’s just going to be like another meet, but a bigger meet,” Blaylock said. “I’m not afraid. I’m not scared. I’m just going to go in there and trust my ability, and see what comes out of it.”

Blaylock is ranked 16th in the region in the 100-meter dash. She posted a time of

11.61 seconds at last week-e nd’s U TA B obb y L a ne Invitational.

“Seeing one member drop-ping a t ime, it a lso g ives everybody else a confidence that our training has gotten better and that we each can go out there and drop a time faster than we usually do,” Blaylock said.

W i l l ia ms sa id a st rong performance by UNT would give the Mean Green more national recognition.

“That’s putting us on the map,” Williams said. “If we can do that, that means we’re doing what we’re supposed to do as a Division-I school.”

Dear Editor,W hen I was approached

by a reporter concerning an article about fire poi, I was 100 percent for it. I didn’t think that I could be as disap-pointed as I am with the way that fire poi was depicted.

The information presented in this article was strictly word-of-mouth, and I feel as though it is disrespectful to investi-gative journalism. There is so much more to poi than playing with fire.

I publically invite anyone involved with this article to come out and see a perfor-mance, which (beside the photographer) did not happen. See the emotion of poi and hear the sounds.

See the intensity. Listen to the music. Watch the flow.

I want to clear up some misconceptions.

Poi is an art not reserved for fire. It has roots in martial arts and is a traditional perfor-

mance art of the Maori people of tribal New Zealand. The word ‘poi’ comes from the Maori word for “ball.”

Tennis balls are just for practice (spinners use these as a way to substitute and train

for fire), and the poi used for fire spinning is made out of a Kevlar-blend wick, which is woven into a monkeyfist or cathedral knot. Fire is a long-term goal, not a short-term one.

Every second and every move of a poi routine has been met icu lously prac-ticed for months before even attempting it with fire. I feel as if the article that was written

made it sound as if we were delving into something that we had no clue about, and did not highlight the arduous journey that we have undertaken to make this a part of our lives.

Poi has become so natural to

us that the chains and wick are extensions of our arms.

We guide the poi and do not fear the fire, but we respect it more than anything. Burns are par for the course, but it is part of the journey and becomes almost spiritual.

It is exercise, it is meditation, it is an obsession. We push our bodies to their limits for the love of the art.

I don’t want people to see the

article and assume that we are being reckless with this art, or think that they can light some tennis balls on fire and go to town. We put others’ safety well above our own.

I feel very misrepresented. Please, never undertake fire

poi if you are not aware of all the risks and safety measures involved. One person getting burned can make a bad name for all of us. As far as legality goes, I will be sure to consult the appropriate institutions in obtaining a permit for fire. I also want to make it clear that Chase and I had both been spinning poi for more than a year before we undertook fire poi. We aren’t playing with fire.

Fire doesn’t play, and neither do we.

Bike ordinance will benefit Denton

Editorial

The Denton City Council decided Tuesday that drivers must leave more room between their vehicle and pedestrians and cyclists.

In two weeks, motorists in Denton must stay at least 3 feet away from cyclists and pedestrians. Commercial vehicles have to stay 6 feet away. Drivers will also have to yield the right-of-way to cyclists if they are turning left or making a u-turn.

If motorists do not follow the ordinance, they could be fined $200.

The Editorial Board supports the change because of the danger pedestrians and cyclists face.

Hazards facing non-motorists Vehicles, which weigh thousands of pounds, can

cause serious damage to people who are unprotected in a collision.

About 50 cyclists and 400 pedestrians die in Texas from accidents involving a motorist.

If everyone follows the traffic laws at all times, no accidents should happen. The reason we need addi-tional protection for cyclists is because the conse-quences are much greater for them than drivers. The Vulnerable Road Users ordinance, if followed, will provide non-motorists with another layer of protec-tion to help them avoid injury.

Increasing personal responsibilityDenton Mayor Mark Burroughs said the hope is the

ordinance will increase people’s awareness of people walking or biking around them.

The change will, we hope, give drivers an incen-tive to actively watch for people who do not have the protection of steel around them.

One concern may be that non-motorists could abuse the protection. However, the overall increase of safety for those who follow traffic rules outweighs any nega-tive effect from people who may take advantage of the ordinance.

Working toward being greenUNT and Denton are both working toward improving

their sustainability efforts. Part of that is a push toward people using more bicycles and other green transpor-tation methods.

By creating a protection for people using those means, Denton is progressing in its environmentally friendly efforts.

Not having to worry as much about impatient or unobservant drivers could motivate more people to pedal their way to campus.

Good job, City Council, on protecting people and the environment at once.

“What do you think about the change in Denton’s policy about cyclists and

pedestrians?”“It makes sense for the safety

of the bikers, but it seems nearly impossible for how bad the roads are. Around campus is the only part of Denton with

decent bike lanes.”

“It keeps college students safe, like going through

a school zone at an elementary school. A fine should be implemented.”

“It’s a good thing. I’m not against it. I don’t want

someone to get ran over because a car came too close.”

A s a l i f e l o n g N e w Eng la nd spor t s fa n who spent the f irst 15 years of his life in Massachusetts, I am surrounded by people wanting my favorite teams to fail at all levels.

It doesn’t matter if it’s a playoff game, regular season matchup or a spring training baseball contest — when my team loses, my phone gets more negative messages than a Rebecca Black Youtube video on Friday morning.

My latest encounter with people pulling against my teams came this weekend, when my Red Sox got trounced by the Texas Rangers. Instead of making myself cry for more than an hour by getting into the details of the defeat, I’d like to discuss the fans I dealt with during the beat down of Beantown.

Surprisingly, the fans I met were respectful and carried themselves extremely well. A jeer here or there, but after a three-game sweep against the league’s supposed top team, it was to be expected. All things considered, these people weren’t nea rly as harsh as my friends can be (see : 2007, New Eng la nd Patriots season). I walked

away thinking that while a couple jokes were made, they never took it too far.

W hat caught my atten-t ion was t he response to a Facebook status I added after the game was finished. I had pointed out that the Sox were clearly beaten, but the Rangers had still never won a championship — a factually based argument that involved no personal attacks or real hateful intentions. Nothing more than a joke, really.

After a few Rangers fans responded with a few appro-priate jokes of their ow n, things got ugly, fast.

All it took was one Astros supporter to label Rangers fans as “bandwagoners who were the dumbest fans in history” for a mildly immature Facebook status to evolve into the host for 114 comments devoted to trash talk. I planned on calling Walmart and telling them to restock on Haterade and Powerrude after the incident.

‘You’re a fat, drunk looking redneck.”

“Why are we arguing sports with McLovin?”

“You stupid, fat turd of monkey poop.”

Wait, how did we go from a conversation about sports to a creature’s crap?

The number of my notifica-tions went up, the reputations of the status commenters went down and the records of both teams remained the same.

On one day, I saw t wo d iverse approaches w it h completely different results. The only thing more impres-sive than the Rangers’ efforts was the class of the fans near me, and the one thing more offensive than my Red Sox’s performance was the group of subscribers to my status.

There is a fine line between a friendly jab about the world of sports and a rude personal attack. If you’re acting like you don’t k now it, you’re

making an excuse to cross that line constantly. Maybe you’re interested in beating another fan to near death, like the two Dodgers fans who severely beat a Giants fan in a parking lot after a game last week.

I only ask that we sports fans treat each other with respect. Joking is one thing, but belittling a fellow human being is another.

Sportsmanship continues after the glory days of high school sports, and after all, it’s just a game.

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

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
