Protesters choosing to assem-ble in the state Capitol will no lon-ger be bound by permit restric-tions after a lawsuit regarding the controversial Capitol assem-bly permitting rules ended in a settlement Tuesday.

Two protesters, including University of Wisconsin-Madison professor Michael Kissick, brought the federal case against the Wisconsin Department of Administration with the help of the American Civil Liberties Union of Wisconsin.

The lawsuit challenged the DOA’s administrative rules requiring groups of four or more people to obtain an assembly permit from the DOA before gathering in the state Capitol. A preliminary decision from U.S. District Court Judge William Conley issued in July

increased the necessary num-ber to 20 or more people.

Soon after the decision, the Capitol Police began arrest-ing members of the Solidarity Singers, a group of singing pro-testers, because the group refused to obtain a permit for its gather-ings in the Capitol rotunda.

The arrests culminated in a contentious stretch between July and September where protesters faced off with Capitol Police over what protesters said was their First Amendment freedom to assemble.

Tuesday’s settlement would change the process for assembling to only require the groups to notify the DOA two days before a group of 12 or more plans to assemble in the Capitol. All groups of less than 12 would not be required give advance notice, but everyone who plans to assemble still could apply for a permit.

Mike Huebsch, the DOA sec-

retary, said in a statement the settlement represents the DOA’s efforts to maintain the Capitol as a place of business.

“The permit process has been repeatedly upheld as constitution-al by the courts, and today’s settle-ment demonstrates ACLU’s agree-ment with the process as well,” Huebsch said in the statement. “We have taken reasonable steps to ensure all visitors and citizens can enjoy our beautiful Capitol building, and I’m hopeful we can all move forward together.”

ACLU Legal Director Larry Dupuis said the settlement is a “victory” for protesters because it imposes a less restrictive notice process.

“This settlement halts the state’s unwarranted punish-ment of individuals who gather inside the Capitol to exercise their free speech rights,” Dupuis said in the statement.

Legislation to increase state landlord rights moves on to Senate

College of the Arts proposal replaced with potential Art Institute redesign By Tamar Myersthe daily cardinal

The over-four-year ini-tiative to create a College of the Arts was dropped in the spring, replaced by a plan that would revamp the Art Institute instead, University Committee Chair Michael Bernard-Donals said at a Faculty Senate meet-ing Monday.

The college would have brought together arts programs housed in different University of Wisconsin-Madison schools into one unit with a single dean.

School of Music Assistant Director Benjamin Schultz said the new proposal brought forward in the wake of ending the College of the Arts would reorganize the Art Institute, where representatives from arts departments across cam-pus currently assemble to promote cross-department collaboration and discuss issues such as financial sup-port for arts students.

Multiple factors played a role in the decision to call an end to the College of the Arts, Schultz said. For example, several arts departments voted to decline joining the proposed college.

“There wasn’t enough unification between the arts departments on campus,” Schultz said.

The School of Music was one

of the programs that decided not to join the proposed college, although Schultz himself did not vote on the matter.

Some of the contention with-in the School of Music came from music academics who believed their research needs were best served by staying in the College of Letters and Science, faculty senator and music professor James Doing told The Daily Cardinal in April.

Professors of different departments were also worried about the financial burden of creating a new college with its own dean, Schultz said.

A May 2012 proposal said the College of the Arts would have cost $2,635,000 in addition to money that would have been transferred to the college from the participating departments and programs.

“Many people felt that money could be used else-where in support of students and departments that currently exist,” Schultz said.

In the end, Schultz said, fac-ulty on both sides were trying to decide how to most effectively serve students.

“These different professors and faculty members, they do have the best interest of the stu-dents at heart,” Schultz said. “They want them to experience the arts as much as they can.”

A bill that critics say would further skew the relationship between landlords and ten-ants passed through the state Assembly Tuesday despite ada-mant Democratic opposition.

The state Senate bill is a rewritten version of a bill that was first introduced in the state Assembly and would attempt to make a uniform landlord tenant law in Wisconsin. The bill comes in opposition to Madison repre-sentatives who support a local government’s, such as Madison’s, rights to control rental laws.

If the bill were to pass, landlords would no longer need to provide renters, including student renters, with an itemized list of the reasons for security deposit deductions. Tenants could also face eviction if a crime were to be committed on the rental property, or could have their personal things taken without warning if they are evicted.

Democratic state representatives took turns speaking on the state Assembly floor Tuesday, condemn-

Hipsters hone talent, haters

ustin Timberlake’s album, 20/20 Experience, was a critical success and return to form for one of pop

music’s premier entertainers. JT’s album did well with crit-ics, long-time fans, teenage girls, twenty-something women, older women, really older women and Elliot, who hates everything. But there was one group of people who loved the album and sur-prised everyone else, and that was the hipsters.

Now, the hipsters are a ram-bunctious bunch. Take some ’60s punk, add in some ’80s irony, multiply by 2000s boredom and subtract all the cool parts to get your average hipster. At this point I should tell you all I’m probably a hipster. No, I don’t have a tat-too arm-sleeve or work at a cof-fee shop because those are gross stereotypes, and I’ll have none of that (just kidding). But my propen-

sity of knowing what’s new and interesting in music can be viewed negatively by the public.

Really? Trying to know what’s new in music is bad? Says who? Well, let’s go to the website that best represents the popular crowd in new media: BuzzFeed. (I know, I know, I’m making fun of BuzzFeed for the second time in the same month; I promise I will stop once I see an article that doesn’t use a sleepy cat GIF.)

One BuzzFeed commenter posted, “This is the problem that happens when those of hipster mentality have to put a stupid fucking label on everything. It’s music. Like her or don’t, those are your choices,” on an article about whether Lorde is an alter-native artist. Wow, thanks “Top Commenter Ray.” I’m sure that title is on your resume with three stars around it.

Excuse me, Ray, but it’s not just music, it’s a way of life. And we need labels—how else can I describe John Wizards to you unless I say it’s a South-African semi-electronic, traditionalist Afrikaans band? Ray, you and your hateful views on hipsters are keeping many of us in hiding.

We’re like Punxsutawney Phil for the 364 days of the year that no one cares about the awful city he’s from (I’m just assuming it’s awful because it’s in Pennsylvania). Your bigoted views of the twist-ed minds of hipsters are ruin-ing America, and I can prove it (maybe, probably not, you should probably stop reading right now, this is the apex).

My simple case for hipsters: Hipsters improve popular music. My more complicated case: With the increased segmentation of musical genres, hipsters do their part by uncovering what, below the spectrum music, is worthy of increased listenership, thus bringing talent to the forefront of mainstream America (holy fuck why can’t I write like that for any of my English papers).

Let’s bring this back to Justin Timberlake. People were surprised the hipster commu-nity (with its spirit animals, Pitchfork and Vibe) enjoyed and gave such high remarks to a mainstream pop album. But the thing about hipsters is they mostly don’t care who the artist is, where they’re from or who listens to them as long as it’s

good. Within hipsterdom, talent rules, and that search for talent benefits the uninformed.

Here’s a scenario: You’re a 14-year-old girl so you still lis-ten to commercial radio (in-between the time you spend tweeting at Justin Beiber and watching documentaries about pop stars in 3-D), and after the third hour of listening to KISS FM, you get a little bored from hearing the same Rihanna song about getting STDs or some shit for the fourth time. You’re still too young to understand pay-ola scale and how major labels (illegally) pay radio stations to play their songs over and over again. But alas, KISS decides to play a plucky unsigned rap-per with an infectious song and a killer music video and you see the light again. Do you know who brought this wing-less angel to the suits making decisions? Hipsters, that’s who. And white people that don’t actually like hip-hop, but that’s for another day.

Do you feel the same victimiza-tion of hipsters as Michael? Email him to complain, bro, at mvo-loshin@wisc.edu.

micHaelvolosHin voloshin’s commotion

M idterms. Papers. Projects. Group proj-ects. How many major

assignments and exams are on your schedule this week?

If you responded to that ques-tion with an agonized groan, a sleep-deprived weep or an ani-mal-like grunt, you may be look-ing for a place to go to buckle down and study. But where to go? If your schedule looks like mine, you’re probably pretty busy stress eating Oreos or bang-ing your head on your desk right about now. So, to put off doing a mountain of poli-sci read-ing—errr, I mean, to save you the trouble of thinking up potential destinations—I’ve made this list weighing the pros and cons of the top study spots around campus.

Helen c. White/college library

Pros: College has everything. Need to crank out a 10-page paper in one night? Head to the quiet room. Want to tell yourself you’re going to study when you

really just want to play M.A.S.H. and make cootie catchers with friends? Scout out a nice big table in the Open Book Cafe.

Cons: All the “pros” I just listed? Everyone knows them and flocks to College. As a result, your trip to College will go like this: After wasting 20 minutes unsuccessfully foraging for a spot close to some outlets, you relegate yourself to a table near the trash, where you will spend the next five hours exchanging judgey glares with a stranger as you inhale Subway smell through one nostril and garbage-can wretch through the other.

memorial library cagesPros: Isolating yourself in

a dimly lit metal box probably eliminates a lot of distractions. It can also be nice to have the space to yourself.

Cons: You are alone in a dimly lit metal box.

coffee shop on state streetPros: You can enjoy a nice,

hot drink as you plug away at your assignment. Plus, if you end up at the right location, the shop might play music that no one’s heard of, which will make you feel really cool while you study.

Cons: LOLSIKE CAFF-EINE OVERLOAD!11!! C O H E R E N T S E N T E N C E S R4LZRS!!!111!! Also, after three songs, that indie singer starts to sound like a mopey goose.

coffee shop on monroe street

Same as above, except every-one around you is over 40.

memorial UnionPros: Memorial Union is

comfy and homey. You can get yourself a tray of cheese curds and settle down in the Rathskeller by the fire…. It’s just so cozy….

Cons: If you come on the wrong day, you might not be able to hear your own thoughts over the sound of—TOUCHDOOOWN GREEEEEN BAAAY—a blaring sports broadcast.

Union southPros: The building is new,

shiny and spacious. You can find everything in there. Need to use a computer? Use a big-screen Mac. Looking for a snack? Why not treat yourself to a juicy burger? Want to bowl while you study? Perfect! You’re in the right place.

Cons: Union South’s sprawl-ing options can turn into endless

distractions that take my mind off of work. It’s not that I’m not interested in writing my geology lab report about the pet rock I’m raising in class. However, the thought of scaling a climbing wall then eating a plate of nachos before going to see a free movie does have a certain appeal.

steenbockPros: This Lakeshore

library is kind of like a less crowded version of College. It’s furnished with the same study stuff—big tables, group rooms, industrial-grade printers—but due to a lower traffic volume, the place seems less gross. This means your chances of contract-ing pink eye while studying are probably half what they would be at College.

Cons: Steenbock is out past Ag Hall, so unless you live on Lakeshore, getting there can be kind of an odyssey. But silver lin-ing? Once you’re out there, you’ll be inclined to stay for a while to make the trek worth it.

Let Rachel know what you thought of this list by meeting her at College to make cootie catchers later tonight. Or send her an email at rmschulze@dailycardinal.com.

ing the bill as a “bad idea” and a piece of legislation that “punishes individuals for being renters.”

State Rep. Chris Taylor, D-Madison, who represents a large number of University of Wisconsin-Madison students said the bill is “patently unfair to tenants” and has previously said the bill could hurt student renters, many of whom are renting for the first time.

“This bill stacks the deck against most people in the state of Wisconsin,” Taylor said while speaking on the floor.

State Republicans did not discuss the bill before it passed 57-37, except for a brief answer by the bill’s author Rep. Duey Stroebel, R-Saukville, to a pointed Democratic question about the crime provision.

The bill was sent back to the state Senate.

Raiola will not face disci-plinary action from the Lions organization or the National Football League for his homo-phobic and misogynistic slurs directed at the UW-Madison Marching Band during a Green Bay Packers game Oct. 6.

Raiola also released a statement through the Lions detailing his apology.

“My interaction with the Wisconsin Marching Band was inappropriate. I apolo-gize to those I offended along with all of the members of Wisconsin’s Marching Band,” Raiola said in the statement. “I also apologize to the Lions’ organization and my team-mates. I understand the stan-dards to which we should con-duct ourselves, and my actions Sunday fell dramatically short of those standards.”

In a statement released with Raiola’s, Lions President Tom Lewand expressed satis-faction with Raiola’s apology and donation.

“After investigating the mat-ter and discussing Sunday’s events with Dominic, we are pleased that he has taken ownership of his actions and admitted those actions were wrong and unacceptable,” Lewand said in a statement. “Due to Dominic’s sincere and appropriate response, there will be no additional disciplin-ary action by the team.”

Raiola had been unapolo-getic for his actions in two past incidents with fans involving obscene language and hand gestures. He received a $7,500 fine in 2008 for an incident with Minnesota Vikings fans and a $15,000 fine in 2010 for an inci-dent with Miami Dolphins fans.

Bill Maher makes 100,000 calls about UW cat research

Stand-up comedian and televi-sion host Bill Maher called more than 100,000 Madison-area num-bers Tuesday to warn University of Wisconsin-Madison students, faculty and the Madison commu-nity about alleged animal cruelty in campus research labs, according to a press release from People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals.

Maher, who is scheduled to speak at the Overture Center for the Arts Oct. 13, pre-recorded a voice message in which he says cats have had holes drilled in their skulls and metal coils implanted in their eyes, and researchers have cut off cats’ ears and starved them.

“Many things in life are funny,

but cruelty to animals isn’t one of them,” Maher said in the message. “I want to make sure you know about the terrible things done to cats right here at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.”

But the university said in a statement Tuesday the claims have no factual basis and said PETA’s repeated animal cruelty claims are “unsubstantiated” and “false.”

“The facts tell us that the research in question is impor-tant, was conducted appropri-ately and humanely, and will lead to a better understanding of hearing and technologies to address hearing loss,” the uni-versity said in the statement.

PETA initially made animal cruelty allegations against the university in September 2012, which led to investigations by the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the National Institutes of Health, both of which found no major violations.

A six-month investigation by the Office of Laboratory Animal Welfare into a UW-Madison experiment found no violations in the university’s use of cats in sound localization, but the organization recommended the university do more to control infection in lab environments and improve clean-ing methods in surgical areas.

The city continued its dis-cussion of the 2014 city bud-get Tuesday at a Board of Estimates meeting, which con-sists of Mayor Paul Soglin and city alders, who heard propos-als by city departments, includ-ing Metro Transit and the City Planning Committee.

Chuck Kamp, the Metro Transit general manager, mentioned dur-ing his presentation that failure to increase funding to Metro Transit could result in higher costs for University of Wisconsin-Madison student bus passes, provided by Associated Students of Madison, and Madison College bus passes.

Metro Transit’s budgetary concerns stem from fleet fuel costs, which are currently tar-geted at $3 per gallon, according to city Finance Director David Schmiedicke.

In order to meet the funding of the proposed budget, Kamp considered the need to raise fees associated with unlimited stu-dent ride passes.

“We listed, in our exercise to reach the mayor’s target, target-ed fare increases on the unlim-ited ride program with UW, with Madison College, Edgewood, etc.,” Kamp said.

The ASM student bus pass prices are currently locked in until August 2014, although there is one

additional option year available. The security of transfer points

was also a point of debate during the meeting. According to Kamp, the department has a target of $100,000 for safety spending, and the current proposed budget offers most of that funding.

Kamp also mentioned Metro Transit is trying to avoid reductions in bus services in the city, such as having to cut certain routes.

The Planning Committee, which is responsible for the man-agement of State Street initia-tives, including the chalkboards on Library Mall and the proposed installment of movable tables and chairs, does not face any severe cuts in the proposed budget.

The Planning Committee’s presentation focused on the creation of a salaried cultural resources planner, whose respon-sibility would include organizing programming on State Street.

Ald. Mike Verveer, District 4, questioned the creation of the position in the current budget, and suggested starting with an hourly position instead.

Verveer also mentioned creat-ing a possible partnership with State Street businesses to fund the purposed position.

The Board of Estimates will continue to discuss the city’s budget and ultimately submit it to the Common Council for approval in November.

Physicists receive Nobel Prize for Higgs boson discovery, aided by UW

raiolafrompage 1

Two theoretical physicists received the 2013 Nobel Prize for Physics Tuesday for their discovery of the Higgs boson particle, to which University of Wisconsin-Madison research teams made signifi-cant contributions, according to a university news release.

Peter Higgs and François Englert predicted the exis-tence of the particle, which is central to the process by which matter has mass, near-ly 50 years ago, according to the release.

Creating the Higgs boson requires the collision of pro-

tons at very high energies.UW-Madison research, led

by physicists Sau Lan Wu and Wesley Smith, played a crucial role in developing the experi-ments at the Large Hadron Collider, which is located near Geneva, Switzerland, the release said. Their work led researchers to discover the particle in July 2012.

Also, UW-Madison comput-er scientist Miron Livny led the ongoing intensive data analysis required to find the particle, using principles he pioneered while working on campus, according to the release.

UW alumnus appointed as new Langdon area police officerFollowing the fast track

Landgon neighborhood officers frequently ride up the ranks of the Madison Police Department, officer Grant Humerickhouse will hand over patrol of the Greek community and surrounding area after approximately three years to up-and-coming officer Shawn Kelly in order to accept a detective promotion in November, accord-ing to MPD Lt. Dave McCaw.

McCaw said Kelly, a 2001 University of Wisconsin-Madison graduate, has been “one of those go-to guys” on the downtown circuit the past few years, and he expects Kelly will be the same in Langdon. Partly, McCaw said, because Kelly requested the transfer.

“If he didn’t like to deal with stu-dents, he’d be working some other district,” McCaw said. “Clearly this

is going to be a passion for him.”Kelly is familiar with the con-

stant issues police experience in and around the Langdon area, such as overconsumption and res-idential burglaries, according to McCaw, who said Kelly “will come through” on the expectations of the Langdon neighborhood beat officer, such as working with stu-dents and landlords to “[solve] things before they happen.”

“I need to go on a diet,” you say. “I’m starting my diet… tomorrow.” The word “diet” is used so frequently that it has lost its meaning. On a regular basis adults and teen-agers are insisting they need to go on a diet, but that most certainly is not true. People use the word to refer to los-ing weight by restricting what they are eating. This should not always be the case.

As fashion week has recently ended, we have watched the skinny models walk down the runway, strut-ting the latest trends and styles. It is these images that make us feel insecure, requir-ing us to “diet.”

According to Merriam-Webster’s dictionary, diet can be defined as “a food and drink regu-larly provided or consumed,” or “habitual nourishment.” In no way does this definition include depriving our bodies of particular foods. So why is it that men and women alike consider this depri-vation to be a diet?

I understand, as a college student— with a lingering nose for the delicious smells that surround me as I walk down State Street— you’re incredibly tempted to order that cup of ice cream. “We are, afterall, in the dairy state. And it’s only a size small,” we convince ourselves.

I’m here to tell you to have that cup of ice cream, and embrace the smells with mod-eration. The key to maintaining a healthy body and a healthy diet lies within moderation.

So, if you do want that ice cream, go for it! Just try and limit yourself to dessert or ice cream only two or three times a week at most. It’ll be a special treat to look forward to, and will not create unnec-essary sugars in your body.

While we all know that many portions at restaurants are often times too large, it still doesn’t stop us from scrapping up the last bit of ketchup with the last lonely french fry. Dieting doesn’t mean you can’t finish your dish, or you can’t eat the french fries. Instead, try resting half way through your meal. This does not mean that you won’t finish your meal. Simply give your body time to digest. You may find that you are more full than you thought. And if not, you can keep eating at a moderate pace.

Eat those fruits and veg-gies! While you may not like the taste of some of them, try to experiment with new fruits and vegetables you haven’t tried. A great place to explore this is the Saturday morning Farmer’s Market at the Capitol.

Vendors line the streets with tents filled with freshly grown fruits and vegetables. And remember the deeper the color the deeper the nutrients. In other words, choose vegeta-bles and fruits in a variety of colors. This will allow you to gain all the vitamins and min-erals that you need, making you not as hungry for those snacks later on in the day.

You may be thinking these tips are too simple and that your body will not change. However, if you stick to mod-eration rather than depriving yourself of the nutrients that you need, you will find your-self feeling healthier instantly. No longer will you need to use the word “diet.” Instead you will maintain a healthy life-style rather than maintaining an unhealthy diet. And don’t forget to get outside and walk around! After all, walking is the best exercise you can do.

Hosting a Halloween get together or just want some cute ideas for festive food? Don’t fret—I’ve got you covered. I’ve compiled a list of easy treats and clever ways to add a bit of spookiness to your next meal.

Mummy Dogs Buy a container of crescent

rolls and a package of hot dogs. Take a hot dog, the “body,” and wrap a crescent roll around it to make it appear as the mummy’s wrappings. Lay your mummy’s on a baking sheet and put in the oven at 350 degrees for about 13 minutes. For the eyes, add 2 drops of ketchup.

Fall Hugs This easy treat is perfect

to munch on while studying! Purchase a bag of Hershey hugs, candy corn and pret-zels, preferably the square ones. Arrange the pretzels on a baking sheet. Top each pret-zel with a hug. Place in the oven at 350 degrees until the chocolate is just melted to the pretzel. Take the pan out of the oven and top each snack with a piece of candy corn.

Candy Corn Cupcakes Bake a batch of vanilla

cupcakes and prepare a bowl of vanilla frosting. Separate the frosting into three bowls. Add food coloring to make one bowl yellow, one orange and leave the last one white. Fill a piping bag with each of the three frost-ing colors. To make the frosting appear as candy corn, squeeze yellow frosting on top of the cup-cake. Next, squeeze orange frost-ing on the yellow in a slightly smaller circle. Add a dab of white frosting on top. For extra cute cupcakes, bake your cupcakes in festive wrappers that have pump-kins or ghosts on them!

Candy Corn Fruit Cup For a healthier option, you

just need pineapple chunks, man-darin oranges and some whipped cream or low fat cool whip. In a mini, clear cup, place a layer of pineapple. Next, add a spoonful of mandarin oranges. On top of your fruit, squeeze some whipped cream or a dollop of cool whip. For an added bit of sweetness, toss a few pieces of candy corn on top.

The top ten signs you have moved on from your ex: A Single Girl Column

H ave you recently gotten out of a relationship and wondered when the time

would come when you would be completely over them? Well here are the top 10 signs you have moved on: 1. You can hear the first few notes of whatever cheesy bal-lad you had deemed “your song” without immediately reaching for the skip button.2. You can pass the place where you had your first date or the restaurants where you celebrat-ed anniversaries without feeling a pang of nostalgia.3. You can start wearing the things they gave you again without feel-ing weird about it. (And really, why is a break up a good reason to stop wearing diamonds?)4. You can sing Taylor Swift’s “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together” and mean it.5. You no longer feel the need to stalk their Facebook profile because you really don’t care what is going on in their life anymore.6. Speaking of Facebook, you can see pictures of him with his new girlfriend without feeling jealous (Although it does help when you realize she’s standing next to a guy who looks like a total frat bro, meanwhile you managed to avoid that fate.)7. You no longer have any desire to text or call them… even when you are intoxicated.8. If you do for some reason end up talking to them, you realize you have absolutely nothing to say to each other.9. You realize that if you met now, you definitely would not have dated and possibly wouldn’t even like each other that much.10. Your friends tell you how much happier you seem, because you finally realized you don’t need someone like them in your life.If you agree with the previous 10 statements, congratulations! You are officially over your ex.

Ditch the diet

By Aleesha HalbachThe Daily CarDinal

There is no doubt about it: Fall is upon us! The leaves are starting to turn wonder-ful shades of orange, yellow and red. The air has become crisp, chilly and refreshing. Apple orchards are buzzing with people, pies and pump-kins. In addition to all of this new and welcomed change, the season of fall invites us to bring some new pieces into our wardrobe. These five easy, manageable pieces will have you looking stylish throughout the season, and will become your go-to piec-es for fall seasons to come!

BootsThey can be booties,

ankle boots, or riding boots. Whichever you choose, they can quickly become a staple in your wardrobe. Look for boots in neutral tones such as black, brown, cognac or cordo-van to maximize wear. They can be easily styled with a boot sock over leggings, tucked into a skinny jean or paired with tights and a skirt. Regardless of how you style them, boots are an ideal way to polish an outfit. They are perfect for walking to the Saturday morning farm-ers market, or sprinting to get that early morning cup of coffee before class!

Chunky KnitsThey can be cardigans,

crew-necks or cowl-necks! All of these choices are wonderful to incorporate into your fall wardrobe. Not only is it easy to throw on a sweater, but it is also a comfy choice for a Sunday in the library or meeting friends for coffee. Longer cardigans can be paired with leggings, crew necks can be worn over an oxford shirt for a more

put together look and all knits are a perfect comple-ment to boots!

Chambray ShirtInvesting in a chambray

or denim shirt can be one of the best decisions you make this fall. This shirt can be worn all throughout the year, but is perfect in the fall for layering. It can be styled on its own with a statement necklace or can be paired under your favorite sweater. Either way, this shirt will be an easy, go-to piece in your wardrobe. The chambray is also very versatile in that it can be worn with any wash of jeans, paired with a chino pant, worn with a maxi skirt or worn over leggings.

Oxblood SkinniesAlthough this deep, rich

wine color pant may be a fad, it encompasses everything fall. It’s warm hue quickly pulls together a fall look. This color is also eas-ily styled since it is so close to a neutral, and it can really work with anything. Look for this color in denim or chino pant, either is a great choice.

Warm ScarvesScarves, being one of the

easiest accessories, can be thrown on to create an instant outfit. A scarf is versatile for anyone, and is a perfect addition to your wardrobe this fall. It is a necessity for keeping cozy on those crisp days autumn days, but can also be carried into the bitter days of winter.

While each item is great on its own, you can pair them together for an instant, chic fall outfit. Each piece will comple-ment you and the upcoming fall season. Happy Fall!

Enjoy the fall trends

By Cassie Sterwald The Daily CarDinal

Summer is officially over, meaning no more bonfires and no more of the famous campfire treat, s’mores. Luckily, I’ve found some simple s’mores recipes to help get me through fall, winter and spring.

S’mores Trail MixThis is a simple snack with all

the great flavors of a s’more and is quick to make. I mix Golden Grahams Cereal, honey flavored Teddy Grahams, chocolate chips, Hershey’s Drops and mini marsh-mallows in a big bowl. You can add whatever you want in any quanti-ties. Just make sure you get a bit of everything in your handfuls!

S’mores DipI’ve made this dip before and it

does taste exact like a s’more. It’s a simple recipe to bring s’mores to you throughout the year, without a campfire or the mess!

In a microwavable bowl, melt the chocolate chips and sweet-ened condensed milk on high for about 1-2 minutes or until the

chocolate chips are completely melted. Stir it every 30 seconds. Spread onto whichever dish you wish to serve the dip in. Drop the marshmallow cream ran-domly over the chocolate mix-ture and microwave on high for about 30 seconds or until it is softened. Swirl in the marsh-mallow throughout the choco-late mixture, creating a marbled appearance. Serve with graham crackers for dipping!

E very day, thousands of students at our univer-sity attempt to collaborate,

learn and work together. With myriad, complex identities being carried by each and every one of them, that is no easy task. It is the role of the university and its fac-ulty members to make it easier and at least safe for the students involved. In order to work toward this goal, the university requires all of its T.A.’s to attend a series of diversity training sessions intended to prepare them for possible class-room situations. On September 22, T.A. and History graduate student Jason Morgan disagreed with the requirement and decided to tell his department supervisor along with a handful of conservative media out-lets. In his letter, he describes the university’s training sessions as “an avalanche of insinuations, outright accusations, and suffocating politi-cal indoctrination,” and virulently protests their attempts at tackling white privilege and supporting trans students.

The University has since pub-lished a response, reporting that Morgan will be allowed to stay on as a T.A. through the semester and will not be required to attend future training sessions. It also says, “Creating a respectful and safe teaching environment for all stu-

dents is the job of UW instructors.” The goal of the training is to have thoughtful discussions in order to better teach and serve students of all backgrounds,” and that “Mr. Morgan… is entitled to his personal opinions and the university wel-comes discussion and deliberation on diversity and all topics.”

We think Morgan must first and foremost separate political ideology from the ideology of social justice. The required diversity trainings are an attempt to prepare instructors to be respectful of students’ iden-tities and personal needs, not lib-eral propaganda. People across the political spectrum should value the importance of understanding one another’s differences; it is as basic as respecting the humanity of the people you are in contact with day in and day out.

Morgan complains that he is being asked to examine “the same tired ‘power and privilege’ and can’t, claiming “it is overused and no longer relevant.” But power dynamics are everywhere between doctors and patients, between part-ners in romantic relationships, and yes, between teachers and their students. His concerns over implic-itly being called “racist” through the session are normal. It’s a defensive leap most white people take when asked to look at the way that they

have been socialized and personally contribute to a culture of white priv-ilege. But that defensive mechanism must be overcome in order to rec-ognize the historically oppressive systems that are still at play today, in one way or another, and to create the genuine ties between students and their teachers that foster learn-ing. The training sessions may not be perfect, but they are necessary, and the first step is attending them with a humble and open mindset.

And that’s where Morgan’s elo-quent tantrum can be useful. His inflammatory way of referring to the identities of trans-students and blatant refusal to recognize white privilege makes it evident that we need to open up a dialogue about diversity training and how to make it the best it can be. Morgan refuses to look at the way his own identi-ties play a role in his feelings. But it’s bringing forward a conversa-tion that desperately needs to hap-pen in our campus community. So what do you think—how can the University better prepare its teach-ers to deal with diverse classrooms? What makes a classroom feel safe for students? And how can we open up conversation to move toward respecting one another? Only you can decide.

I wish every student on cam-pus could have seen this; gay, straight, black, white,

Hispanic, Asian. Everyone. I am not in a minority group, unless we can still consider women as a minority, which maybe we can in some instances (though, thank God, I think that generation is dying off). Never have I felt so lucky and full of opportunity during my years at a university. Jonathan Rauch, a well known journal-ist, activist and writer of “Kindly Inquisitors” came to lecture in my First Amendment class Tuesday. Never have I felt so enlightened, free from ignorance and more eager to share this with every sin-gle person on this campus, hell every person in the United States, if my opinion could reach that far, maybe even the world. This topic is not an easy one, in fact it is one with very blurry lines. It is the topic of free speech with regard to minorities and hate speech. Jonathan Rauch asked us what lines should be drawn? Should we have laws and speech codes that prohibit hateful speech? Rauch, an open homosexual, says no. Before you get extremely alarmed and confused by his answer, you

should hear his argument, which is incredibly strong and in my view, unwavering. At the begin-ning of his lecture I answered, “Of course we should,” as I believe that everyone, no matter who they are, deserves to feel comfortable in their own skin at all times. And if law needs to be the means in which we make sure that’s the case, then so be it. But throughout his lecture, in which I cried, had goose bumps almost the entire time and actually felt my mind being changed for the better, my answer changed.

Jonathan explained to us that growing up in a time when being gay was an extreme taboo, he realized placing laws to stop hate-speech is not the real way to make progress. The way to get it done is by changing the culture, by chang-ing the moral knowledge of our country. The rest will eventually take care of itself. To illustrate this point he asked the class if we had

ever heard of a man named Frank Kameny, which unfortunately, none of us had. Frank Kameny was an extraordinary man. In the late 1950s, after serving for our United States military, teaching astron-omy at Georgetown University and finally being employed by the United States Army Map Service, Kameny was fired from his gov-ernment employment because he was gay. This was a time where being gay was crazy and complete-ly unacceptable. Instead of walking away in shame, Kameny fought.

He became the first man to file a gay rights brief before the Supreme Court stating something along the lines of, “I served my country fight-ing tyranny in Europe only to come home and find that I have to fight tyranny here.” His case was shot down. But he kept on fighting and pushing the movement forward. Rauch then told us that Kameny was able to live to receive a public apology from the same Office of Personnel Management who had fired him in the past. And guess what? The director who apolo-gized to him, John Berry, is gay. Kameny also lived long enough to be seated next to President Barack Obama as he signed the Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell Repeal Act. Kameny was able to see all the progress he made with his voice, with his opinion,

with his valid and strong argu-ments. His arguments appeared strong not only because they were, but because the opposition’s argu-ments were so terrible and so easy to knock down. Why should some-one get fired for his or her sexual orientation? Well, there’s really no logic to this at all of course.

Rauch said prohibiting hate-ful speech would not have been the flame to ignite this movement. The stupidity present in the hateful speech was perhaps part of what ignited the flame. It was part of the flame able to push Kameny into fighting for what was right. Now, I’m not saying all hateful speech should be protected. What I am saying is this viewpoint on free-dom of speech should be consid-ered to its full effect, even when it’s hard to determine because situa-tions can be so personal to us. If we had laws in the United States pro-hibiting freedom of speech, per-

haps sometimes peoples’ feelings would be spared. But would there be progress? Maybe there would be, but isn’t it better to change these horrible moral ideas rather than just trying to deter them? The point is to get to the root of the problem. As Rauch said, it is a matter of fixing the culture, not just putting restraints on it. That is why pushing your opinions on others is so important. That is why making people feel uncom-fortable is sometimes necessary.

Do you think everyone feels comfortable talking about gay rights? Probably not. But the issue should be talked about so it can become normalized in our culture and these people can feel comfort-able in their own skin. We are seeing so much progress in our country and it is as a result of this discourse that has taken place.

It is because of these ignorant ideas that gays don’t deserve the same marriage rights or “God hates gays” that people like Kameny, people who make change, can push it the other way by showing that love is so much stronger than hate.

Have you considered the shape of books?

W hat is the shape of a book? Rectangle, says the wisecracker, or

square if it’s a coffee table tome. Maybe you read a triangle shaped book once before. Who knows? But I’m not talking about book shape, per se. I’m talking about the shape of the story.

I’ll give two examples: “Finnegans Wake,” by James Joyce, is a book told along the lines of a circle and “The Ambassadors,” by Henry James, has been described as having an hourglass shaped story.

“Finnegan’s Wake” basically tries to tell the story of mankind and myth, in an insularly dense polyglot that is rather amorphous in design and interpretation. And the book is literally a circle; the last sentence of the book feeds into the beginning of the book, thus making “Finnegans Wake” never ending.

It also approaches the infinite. Remember high school algebra: a circle’s radius/diameter is calcu-lated using pi, which has yet to run out of decimal digits. Right now, it’s sitting pretty at over ten trillion. Combine that with the subject of man and myth and the whole self-referential dream

tongue, and you’ve got a pretty neat headache to contend with.

Now, to “The Ambassadors.” I don’t have it on me whether or not James thought of the book as having an hourglass shape. I wouldn’t put it past him. In a critical essay on the subject, E.M. Forster described the book as an hourglass, where, “Everything is planned, everything fits; none of the minor characters are just deco-rative … they elaborate on the main theme, they work.” Furthermore, Forster says, “the symmetry they have created is enduring.”

Unfortunately, I haven’t read “The Ambassadors” in a while, so I can’t corroborate other than to cull a hazy “yeah, that sounds right” from memory. Such an interpretation certainly adds to the elegance of the story.

If we were to be literal and assume that the novel is an hour-glass, I wonder where exactly the tube narrows, where the pinch sets in. Where (James might say) the elements of the “tale” press their forceful energies in elucida-tion of the thing which organizes them. It could be Strether’s “Live all you can” speech. It could be Strether’s epiphany.

At any rate, I hope those two examples shed some light on what it means to talk about the “shape” of a book. Of course, only having two examples is no fun, so why don’t we spice things up and throw in two more? General cases, this time. Flights of fancy on my part.

The first “shape” to consider is more of a device, like the hour-glass. It’s called a stereopticon, or a magic lantern. For anyone who’s been to a history museum or your grandparent’s house, a stereop-ticon is technically one of those viewing glasses that you put a spe-cialized picture on and it makes it look 3-D. But a stereopticon is also a special projector with two lenses. Popular before movies, these devices could produce imag-es that would seem to “melt” into each other as images transitioned. They were also very popular with seances for summoning “ghosts.” A book could work very well as a series of melting images, I think.

The other “shape” is also a device, of sorts, and anoth-er toy popular before moving pictures took off. We’re talk-ing Victorian period here. The other shape a book could take is that of a thaumatrope.

A thaumatrope consists of two images painted onto one side of a two-sided card or circle cut out. One side may have a bird, for instance, and the other side a birdcage. Now, when this card was spun quickly enough, these imag-es seemed to combine into one, despite being wholly discrete.

Wouldn’t that make a wonder-ful book? The only question would be whether you could spin the story fast enough to make it work.

THE RECORD ROUTINE

SEaN REICHaRD“quip quo pro”

By Cameron GraffThe Daily CarDinal

In contrast to Sean McCann’s dazzling Music for Private Ensemble—another quintes-sentially 2013 release, a universe away—Pusha T’s My Name is My Name opens with a rolling snare. Unlike McCann’s restrained masterpiece though, it doesn’t sputter and die on “King Push”—it roars to life, fueled by Kanye’s Yeezus-esque primordial pro-duction and Pusha’s snarling flow. The track sets the tone for the rest of the album, painting Pusha as a scowling drug king-pin reclining in his throne. He is, after all, only “missing a dash” in the “difference between [him] and Hova.”

Well, that’s at least true on one level. Most of the record spends its time lumbering around, flexing its arms, beefy from moving bricks of coke. Pusha fancies himself a gang-ster in a world of dulled words, and he never lets us forget it. “Sweet Serenade” features the stupidly fantastic line, “in that Phantom like I’m Blair Witch” and “Hold On” is another gor-geous Kanye produced ode to—you guessed it—peddling cocaine. And then the pattern repeats ad infinum; by the end of the record, you’re damn sure going to know just how much Pusha loves to be the last real thug on the block, constantly rolling like Huell Babineaux or a more sinister Scrooge McDuck through a giant pile of money.

So, we get it, Pusha’s great—maybe him and Jay-Z will even meet up someday to discuss the exact magnitude of their

awesomeness, if they haven’t already. Until then, what’s keeping us around to actually listen to him? Well, Pusha’s pretty smooth, in his own way. His delivery never really hits stunning levels, and there aren’t any real lines (minus the aforementioned Blair Witch pun—amazing) that will make your head spin. But My Name is My Name, maybe despite some contrary self-market-ing, doesn’t look to reinvent the wheel; rather, it’s a hyper refined version of the wheel that’s fun for the whole family. And Pusha’s the perfect sales-men—when he barks “I just wanna sell dope forever/I just wanna be who I am,” he sells it with conviction.

Despite the all-around gor-geous/ominous production (a G.O.O.D. Music blessing), it shouldn’t be a huge surprise then that the real slayer here comes from someone that isn’t Pusha. Kendrick Lamar, on the oft-misspelled “Nosetalgia,” counters Pusha’s “I’m the best” mantra with a monstrous rebuke against Lamar’s own drug peddling father, insisting that Lamar’s music is worth more by the brick than his dad’s dope.

It’s an ironic and biting placement for a guest spot, but Pusha’s allowance of something so ambiguously backhanded on his album is telling. Joining the ranks with the nearly as great “Numbers on the Board,” “No Regrets,” “Let Me Love You” and “Pain,” it’s obvious that Pusha was only interested in putting out the best product he could. And while it may not scratch the same zeitgeist itch that Good Kid M.A.A.D. City did last year, My Name is My Name is still a remarkably entertaining record and some of the year’s best A-lister hip-hop.

In the midst of endless touring, Papadosio talks Rootwire and RadioheadBy Brian WeidyThe Daily CarDinal

Though many would define Papadosio as a jam band, their sound is a melting pot of different genres and influences with each band member coming from a dif-ferent musical background.

“I started out listening to all the music my dad would play for me which is like a lot of Steely Dan and Yes,” said Sam Brouse, Papadosio’s keyboard player. “But the first thing I really had an obsession about was, and is to this day, Radiohead.”

Furthermore, while the band is often categorized as a jam band, Brouse himself never really listened to jam bands.

“I’ve never even, still to this day, listened to any jam band music my whole life,” said Brouse.

This background, removed from the jam band world, works as a blessing for the band as Brouse places a strong empha-sis on song-writing and the cre-

ation of albums—something most jam bands consider as an after-thought to their live show.

And it’s on the band’s lat-est album, To End the Illusion of Separation—which came out in 2012—where Papadosio really demonstrates this strength.

Whereas many jam bands are content to throw a half-dozen or so songs on tape and release it to the world, Papadosio moved in an entirely different direction, choos-ing to release a 20-song album with little in the way of filler.

“I think it came from a lot of

what I was just talking about, bands that we admire have always made albums that speak by themselves,” said Brouse. “It doesn’t have to be about what our band is.”

Additionally, part of the drive to make this record was the addi-tion of Brouse, who joined in 2010, and his presence in the studio on To End the Illusion of Separation.

“I was chomping at the bit to record some of my songs, and then I’ve also been tour-ing with songs from that album for like two years,” said Brouse. “Basically, we just wanted to see what we could accomplish.”

But as much as Brouse is proud of their studio work, one is hard-pressed to look past their relentless touring schedule. The band has traipsed across the country and back numerous times. Some places, however, stand out amongst their hun-dreds of dates a year.

“Every place has its unique

stuff that’s really cool about it,” said Brouse. “But my favorite places to be are Colorado and Richmond, Va. I really like it everywhere, depending on how tired I am.”

The band has three big events each year to look forward to: Rootwire Music & Arts Festival (a festival that the band put together themselves), their two-night Earth Night celebration in Columbus, Ohio and a New Years Eve gig.

“It is really special and really amazing that all of those people are there [at Rootwire],” Brouse said. “It’s nice, coming from a summer full of festivals that aren’t ours and we don’t have control over.”

But New Years Eve, despite being a mainstay of the band’s calendar, is not Brouse’s favorite show of the year.

“I mean, obviously everybody just wants to fucking party,” said Brouse. “I like playing New Years, but I like more playing shows where people don’t neces-

sarily expect it.”With the band being on the

road for so much of the year, Brouse also enjoys exploring all the wonders of local cuisine across the country.

“I have thought so many times about starting a food blog about eating on the road,” Brouse said. “We were just in Portland, Maine for the first time and had some pretty killer clam chowder. But my favorite experience eating is probably the first time I had jambalaya in New Orleans.”

Amidst their relentless tour-ing schedule, the band always enjoys coming back into Madison.

“It’s different every time, but I like Madison,” said Brouse. “It’s an awesome town, and no matter what the weather is, people are coming out … there’s never been a dead crowd.”

Papadosio is set to play the Majestic Theater with support from Earthcry at 9 p.m., Oct. 10.

Well rested off a bye week, the Wisconsin (1-1 Big Ten, 3-2 overall) offense had more time than usual to prepare for No. 19 Northwestern (0-1, 4-1) and to shake off the tough loss against No. 4 Ohio State (2-0, 6-0).

The Wildcats put up a fight against the Buckeyes while the Badgers watched from home dur-ing their bye week.

Northwestern was ahead 23-20 at the end of the third quarter before allowing Ohio State to put up 20 points in the fourth quarter.

The Buckeyes did a good job of taming Wisconsin’s running game the week before and forc-ing the Badgers to put the ball in the air.

In Wisconsin’s last match-up redshirt senior wide receiver Jared Abbrederis had 207 yards, his career high. The Badgers have utilized Abbrederis’ talented receiving ability to complement their his-toric running game.

“It feels good to get back,

had a nice bye week to get refreshed,” Abbrederis said. “I’m never worried about num-bers. It’s about coming out here and playing the game, just doing what I love to do.”

Both of Wisconsin’s losses this season have come on the road, the first to Arizona State in

a controversial heartbreaker and the last in their most recent game against the undefeated power-house Ohio State.

“It’s fun playing here, we have a great crowd here. One of the best in the nation in my opinion,” Abbrederis said, “You definitely feel a good vibe from them, when

things get down they can pick you up.”

The home field advantage can play a big role in college football. There is a dedicat-ed fan base that consistent-ly shows up each week with organized chants and cheers. Beyond the moral support fans

provide they can be completely debilitating to a visiting team trying to call an audible as the play clock ticks down.

Red shirt sophomore quar-terback Joel Stave experienced a situation similar to this under the lights at Ohio Stadium with over 106,000 screaming fans, the third biggest crowd in Ohio Stadium history.

Senior running back James White is averaging just less than 95 yards per game this season.

“It’s a lot of fun playing here; it’s my senior year and I need to cherish it,” White said, “At the same time for us to be a great team we need to win on the road. That will be the challenge for us in the coming weeks.”

Redshirt sophomore running back Melvin Gordon has 698 yards off of 68 carries this season.

He is currently the sixth ranked rusher in the NCAA for the 2013 season. With the help of White and true freshman run-ning back Corey Clement, the Badgers will look to bounce back against the Wildcats and contin-ue their rushing heritage.

Rutgers-SMU battle in triple overtime thrillerGrey SatterFielD50 shades of grey

Drama is the key to any good story. Drama is generated over time but it builds on the key prin-ciple of suspense.

Suspense can be broken down into a very simple equation. Make your character, in this case a team, find themselves in a situation in which a good outcome is unlikely and a bad outcome is very likely.

Saturday played host to a load-ed slate of dramatic games, but one game in particular provided so much dynamic suspense it was hard to handle. And here’s the best part, no one saw it coming.

There were three match-ups of ranked teams last week, but nothing came close to the battle between Rutgers and Southern Methodist University.

Yes, neither of these teams have a shot at the National Title but Rutgers did snag a good win against Arkansas and SMU, well SMU’s only win was against Montana St.

Entering the fourth quarter, Rutgers, was leading the game 35-14, a seemingly insurmount-able difference for an SMU team that has struggled all year, but that wasn’t the case. An early fourth quarter touchdown was the spark SMU needed to drive an amazing comeback. But this spark was almost diminished when SMU failed to convert their point after attempt.

With 1:19 remaining, SMU scored their third consecutive touchdown triggering a decisive two-point conversion. Upon the snap, the attempt seemed all but fin-ished as multiple Rutgers defenders surged through the line of scrim-

mage. As the pocket collapsed, SMU senior quarterback Garrett Gilbert went in the only direction he could, backwards. A full twenty yards backwards to be precise.

Gilbert picked up a few blocks and frantically scrambled toward the sideline. Right before he crossed the sideline he turned across his body and heaved a 20-yard prayer.

The throw was so erratic that the camera wasn’t able to capture it.

The prayer was answered by senior wide receiver Jeremy Johnson who barely got his toe down in the end zone. The game was tied and sent into overtime.

In the third overtime, the game was decided when freshman run-ning back Justin Goodwin scored on a 17-yard scamper to secure victory for Rutgers 55-52 (3OT).

The lengthy overtime period consisted of a fourth down con-version for both teams and many other electric plays.

Dramatic storytelling was on full display in Dallas on Saturday. The two-point conversion to force overtime was enough to propel SMU-Rutgers to game of the week status, but three over-times on top of that? Come on.

Here in lies the best part of college football; the game of the week can come from anywhere.

The marquee game of the day is almost always upstaged by a small game from the newly formed AAC, Sun Belt or other “mid-major” conferences. The depth of games in college football is what separates it from the rest. There are four to six games at four different time slots, each one has potential to be astounding.
