The Global and Social Responsibility Conference began with a presentation by Amy Goodman, an internationally-known broadcast journalist and anchor of the independent news show “Democ-racy Now!”.

Goodman spoke of her experiences as a journalist, issues related to the election process, and the im-

portance of political movements during a presentation held in Ritsche Auditorium on Wednesday.

Goodman was introduced by Denis Moynihan, co-author of her latest book, “The Silenced Ma-jority”. Moynihan referenced the book’s forward, which spoke of Goodman’s early days as a journalist.

“Here’s the domi-nant image in my head of Amy Good-man during that month in Palestine:

When the Israeli [WTLQMZ[�[\IZ\ML�ÅZQVO�their rubber bullets at us and a group of unarmed Palestin-ians, we would all run the other way (i.e., away from the bullets) and Amy Goodman would be running the opposite way--straight into melee.”

Goodman was all smiles as she took the stage, greeted by cheers and applause from the audience.

She began her presentation by ad-vocating the need for

independent media.“We are not run

by corporations that have nothing to say and everything to sell,” she said.

Goodman said that much of what is known about other countries comes from the media. The me-dia can be a powerful peacekeeping tool, but it also can be wielded as a weapon of war. In the light of the current election, [PM�ZMÆMK\ML�WV�\PM�recent presidential debate.

He invited students to come down and visit the police station, even to use their rooms as meeting spaces.

SCSU’s Student Recovery Program is \PM�ÅZ[\�WN �Q\[�SQVL�WV�campus for students struggling with addic-\QWV��.WZ�\PM�ÅZ[\�\QUM�ever, SCSU is going beyond traditional, counseling-based reinforcement when helping students who struggle with alcohol addiction or chemical dependency.

To Nathan Ander-son, neither of these struggles is unfamiliar.

Born and raised in the northern Min-neapolis area, Nathan grew up around alcohol and substance abuse. At an early age, he received a tutorial on the perils of usage. “I remember heavy pot use as a kid,” said Anderson, a freshman and the lone enrollee in SCSU’s Student Recovery Program.

“My dad drank, my mom also drank heavily and I remem-ber my uncle and his friends smoking crack in our apartment as I�SQL��1�PIL�Ua�ÅZ[\�drink at 8-years-old and absolutely loved the feeling of being happy, outgoing and social. It left me with the feeling that every-one drinks, everyone smokes,” Anderson said.

When he was in fourth grade, he

moved from north Minneapolis to Orono with his mom and stepfather. It was at this point he began getting teased by UWZM�¹ÅVIVKQITTa�privileged” kids and began resenting the treatment he received by others.

“I started to resent the ‘preppy kids’, peo-ple who had money, because they made me feel bad because we didn’t have any. We never went without, my parents worked hard, but we were lower-middle class,” Anderson said.

Anderson then moved from Orono to Redwood Falls. It’s there that addiction ÅZ[\�JMOIV�\W�MV\MZ�Nathan’s life.

“My stepfather moved us to try and further distance us from the ‘city life’, but little did he know that being 18 and 19 and living next to the Native reservation, drugs were plentiful,” Anderson said.

¹<PM�ÅZ[\�\QUM�I got high, I was 14 with a co-worker, the summer before ninth grade. I smoked pot infrequently, but I was really a nerd in high school. I drank here and there, but most of my weekends were spent playing Dun-geons and Dragons. I did really well in high school, actually, and

really liked school,” Anderson said. It was during these forma-tive years Anderson’s family life became in-creasingly fragmented. The effects became more apparent as the years went by.

His mother fought for, and won a custody battle against Nathan’s biological father, and Nathan was given strict orders of having no contact with him. Nathan felt as if his father didn’t ÅOP\�PIZL�MVW]OP�to stay in his life and he began to harbor feelings of resentment toward both of them.

“My biological father had no part in my life. Honestly, I have his phone num-ber and know where he lives, but I don’t want a relationship with him anymore. I resent my mother for separating us, but I also resent my father NWZ�VW\�ÅOP\QVO�UWZM�º�Anderson said. “[My biological father] got re-married and had another kid, so I kind of felt replaced. He had another kid, so I meant nothing.”

It wasn’t until An-derson went to college that the depths of his addiction truly began to control his life.

In 2000 he enrolled at Brown Institute’s electronic engineering program. He began living

and partying in an apartment with other students in Eagan.

“I went to college to party. I would get high before class at seven in the morn-ing. I was working and partying, maybe going to class two days a week. But I didn’t understand what I was doing in the pro-gram,” Anderson said.

Brown Institute is now known as Brown College. Located in Mendota Heights, it offers private post-secondary education programs as opposed to traditional Bach-elor and Associates degrees.

“I ended up switching programs and went into PC land technology, but then I lost my job. I pretty much threw in the towel from there and moved back home to Redwood Falls. I got a job at the casino as a buffet cook and from there I got heavy into meth,” Anderson said.

Then the spiral of addiction took an all too familiar course. Nathan began living a life of using. He would do whatever drug he KW]TL�ÅVL��+aKTQVO�through numerous jobs, he began stealing from family members

Though polygyny has been documented all over the world, the cases in west-ern Africa have interested everyone from historians to economists.

John T. Dalton, assistant professor of economics for Wake Forest University in Salem, N.C., presented how imperialism and the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade affected the population and culture of Africa.

Before beginning, Dalton started with a disclaimer, “These are Europeans writing for a Eu-ropean audience”, he said. “An audience which would clearly be more interested in differences between Afri-can societies and European societies.”

Dalton went on to ex-plain that even though the data does draw conclusions, it is likely that it could not represent the larger popula-tion in western Africa.

The lecture continued with Dalton analyzing the slave trade in Africa. Dalton

said that it led to population loss in western Africa, as well as political instability and ethnic fractionalization.

One of the reasons po-lygyny might be prevalent has to do with population loss during the slave trade. Studies presented by Dalton showed that males were taken captive more often than females were, which created an unbalanced sex ratio.

Of the slaves taken from western Africa, about 60 percent were males. In the Gold Coast about 65 percent were males, in Sierra Leone 66 percent were males and in West Central Africa 67 percent were males.

Polygyny has been shown to be more prevalent in places during times of crisis. During the Russian Revolution and following World War II there were many documented cases as a result of the large popula-tion losses and unbalanced sex ratios from men that

Tim Davis, candidate for U.S. Senate, is banking on the roots of Minnesota farmers to help create jobs and turn the economy around. The difference between Davis and other candidates, however, is he hopes those roots will be at-tached to a cannabis plant.

Davis was on campus Wednesday, trying to spread the word about the Grass-roots party and their goal of changing the laws regarding the laws on growing can-nabis.

He said the reason he is running with the Grassroots party is because they feel

there are some re-ally important issues which need to be brought to the atten-tion of the public.

Those issues: the war on Americans, and the war on mari-juana and hemp.

There is a differ-ence between mari-juana and hemp. Hemp is used for industrial purposes and will not produce the same effects as marijuana when smoked.

Davis said what he brings, and what the Grassroots brings to the table which no other party does is the focus on civil liberties. The Grassroots platform,

Davis said, is the Bill of Rights.

One of the biggest contribu-tions Davis said his party could bring to the state of Min-nesota would be the creation of an industry which is not currently in place.

At some point in time Davis is certain the Federal Govern-ment will have to address the legaliza-tion question.

“Right now we’re in an area where different states are doing different things, and no one has a perfect model yet,” Davis said.

The real issue in stopping people from having real discussions about the legalization of can-nabis in this country is fear, according to Davis.

Fear of the unknown is the big-gest fear, Davis said,

however that is not the only fear keeping the debate out of the mainstream.

“Also, is the fear of individuality. We talk a lot about that in this country. But if you stick out, if you’re a sore thumb, if you’re an individu-alist to a point then you are an outcast,” he said.

Oliver Steinberg, who works with the Grassroots party, said many of those Z]VVQVO�NWZ�WNÅKM�tend to lean toward lobbyists’ interests on many issues sur-rounding drugs and alcohol.

“[Other candi-dates] might not be consciously tools of the liquor lobby,” he said.

Refusing to dis-cuss the legalization of cannabis is doing a great disservice to the state of Minne-sota and the country,

according to Davis.“This plant is the

most important plant on the planet. If you want food, you can get it from this plant. If you want oil, you can get if from this plant to run your cars … You want to help the sick, you can smoke it, or eat it. You want cloth-ing, you can use it NWZ�ÅJMZ�°�AW]�KIV�use it for insulation. You can mix it with lime, it makes great insulation,” Davis said.

During World War II the state of Minnesota was a part of the Hemp for Victory move-ment, where the U.S. Department of Ag-riculture encouraged farmers to grow industrial hemp for World War II.

Davis said these are not the only issues, but they are the ones upon which Davis and the Grass Roots party is focus-ing.

Another issue Davis discussed was

the Federal Reserve, saying the U.S. keeps printing money which will cause hardships in the form of an economic collapse or runaway QVÆI\QWV�

The main reason for running, how-ever, is simply to get the message out and start the discussion, Davis said.

“Get the mes-sage out. I’m not some pipe-smoking weirdo who thinks I’m going to win. I may be a pipe-smoking weirdo, but I don’t think I’m going to win. It’s get-ting the message out. I don’t see any other candidate talking about it,” he said.

Jim Carlson, the Grassroots candidate for president from Duluth, Minn., and his vice-presidential running mate is George McMahon, from Livermore, Iowa, are also intent on spreading the same message as Davis.

BEAT REPORTER

SCSU has become a hub for culture and diversity in central Minnesota, hosting events and participating in cel-ebrations from ethnic groups all over the world.

There are many fascinating students, each with a unique story of how they ended up in St. Cloud. One indi-vidual I encountered had a particularly interesting story of how he found his way to the university.

Brian Schorne, who originally hails from Germany, sat down and gave me his story of how he traveled all over the world and still found his way to becoming a fellow Husky.

I sat down with Brian and asked him a series of questions that many students are curious to hear answered about our classmates from for-eign countries. The ÅZ[\�IVL�UW[\�WJ^Q-ous question I asked him was “Where are you originally from?”

A: I was born in a German hospital in the town of Viern-heim while my dad was stationed there for the army. He married a German woman and started a family. When I grew up in Germany, around my Ger-man family, and my American mom we spoke both English IVL�/MZUIV�Æ]MV\Ta�at the same time. We

lived there until I turned three, and my sister Jenny was only six months old when we left for Minne-sota, where my dad is originally from.

Q: Where did you live in Minne-sota?

A: We lived in a temporary apartment right by Fort Snelling for a month or two. Then _PMV�1�_I[�Å^M�_M�moved to Fort Hood, Texas for six months because my dad got promoted rank in the army and had to go to school at the Sergeant Major Academy.

We then moved to Lakeville, Wash. about two hours north of Seattle after my dad earned his promotion. I went \W�ÅZ[\�IVL�[MKWVL�grade there and after a couple years we moved back to Ger-many in a city called Würzburg. We were there for two months in temporary hous-ing and that is where our mom died.

Q: How did your mother die?

A: She had a heart complication that the doctors said wasn’t too big of a deal and they could do surgery but it was risky at the time. My mom wanted to wait until Jenny and I were out of high school before she did it because it was so risky and she thought she didn’t absolutely need the surgery; apparently they were wrong. I was seven IVL�2MVVa�_I[�Å^M�at the time and we

were walking to this festival together and she just collapsed. We called the am-bulance, went to the hospital and she just passed away.

Q: How did your mothers passing ef-fect you?

A: My dad had a rough time adjust-ing with doing his demanding job and learning how to take care of two kids at the time so it was stressful. Lucky the army has a good support group so he got a lot of help from other people when he needed it. I went to third and fourth grade there then he got re-stationed in Mannheim, which is about two hours from Würzburg. That was nice because it was ten minutes away from my German family so they helped take care of us when my dad was deployed for eight months.

It was in Mannheim where my dad started dating again where he met Annette, my stepmom. She was able to get a one-year visa when my dad invited to her to come with us when we moved again. I lived in Mannheim for two years where 1�KWUXTM\ML�ÅN\P�IVL�sixth grade, then we moved to Irmo, S.C. After my dad and Annette spent the one year together, they got married and she worked on her citizenship to get her green card.

My dad was

planning on getting out of the army in South Carolina but they gave him the option for another promotion to move to Korea. He came home one day and asked Jenny, Annette and myself if we wanted to go to Ko-rea and I was all for it. I have never been to an Asian country; I was the only one to say yes. Jenny didn’t want to go anywhere she wanted to stay with the close friends she made in South Carolina, and An-nette said she did not care.”

We moved to Seoul, South Korea on this air base called Yongsan. It was like living in a little America right in downtown Seoul, so I did my tenth and eleventh grade there and made some of the best friends that I still play video games with to this day. I love Korea; I would party with my friends, go downtown, and go to school on rare occasions. After that, my dad was offered to go back to Germany and he took it, so we moved back to Germany in the largest military community outside the states called Kaiserslautern.

Q: Why did you decide to join the Army?

A: I swore my whole life I would never join the mili-tary, but I needed a change in my life and needed some way to pay for school, so

I joined the army. I talked to a recruiter and joined Feb. 23 2011. A week later I shipped off for basic to Fort Leonard Wood, Mo., which is a horrible place. It’s nickname is “Fort- Lost-In-The-Woods” because it’s in the middle of nowhere, so it’s a great place for basic training.

Q: What was your training experi-ence like?

A: I enjoyed JI[QK#�\PM�ÅZ[\�\_W�weeks you don’t have time to think, you’re always busy, you get up at four until they let you go to sleep at ten. It’s a huge culture shock. You don’t have free time, you have to do what they say and they’re

always harassing you to break you down. After those two weeks, that’s when most people quit, but I got used to it I thought it was fun.

Q: How did you decide on SCSU for your college?

A: I didn’t get into the U of M because of an error in the application but I was at basic during the time of the mishap so there was no way for me to know about it. When I got back from basic I found that out so I looked into another college and I saw St. Cloud and from what I heard they said it was the sec-ond best school next to the U of M, so I signed up for SCSU.

Q: How does St. Cloud compare to the other schools you have attended?

A: Living in Sherburne Hall, I met some more re-ally good friends and PIL�I�OZMI\�ÅZ[\�aMIZ�managing between school and basic drill M^MZa�[W�WN\MV��1�ÅV-Q[PML�Ua�ÅZ[\�aMIZ�QV�St. Cloud, moved out of the dorms and got a house on the south side neighborhoods, close to campus with nine of my really good friends where we sleep, study and party together. I have been having such a great time in St. Cloud I can consider it one of the better homes of the several I have had through-out my life.

Staff Report

The rise in concern for food safety has caught the attention of the Food and Drug Administration at the 2012 Food Safety Symposium.

“Quality and safety will carry the day,” said David Acheson, microbiologist and physician. “Focus on prevention, preven-tion, prevention.”

Foreign imported food will now go through a tougher process to make it into United States food markets.

As a result of the 2011 Food Safety Modernization Act, the task of port inspections will now fall on the import-ers themselves instead of going through Federal check points.

Third parties will also now be able to certify and audit importers while acting as the FDA.

Acheson said this was an important business opportunity for companies, such as St. Cloud’s Microbiologics, looking to incorporate new technology and strategies to the inspection process.

As Acheson said, the FDA will be mov-ing toward preventative measures instead of responsive. The Food Safety Modern-ization Act will assist in this by requiring facilities to assess any hazards that there might be in the work place. It also created new standards for the production of fruits and vegetables.

This new accountability will hold companies responsible for any contamina-tion. Authority to recall the contaminated items is now placed on the FDA instead of companies.

With this new legislation, the FDA hopes to move toward a risk-based system of regulating the food industry. Domestic companies must push on foreign exporters to regulate their products according to the new FDA laws, according to Acheson.

There are several major food produc-ers in Minnesota that have had a hand in shaping the industry.

General Mills, based in Golden Valley, had a 2011 revenue of $14.8 billion and employs 35,000 people.

Cargill, based in Minnetonka, is the largest privately-held company in the United States in terms of revenue. They PI^M�ZMÅVMZQM[�QV����KW]V\ZQM[�

debate in U.S. history. Unlike the Kennedy-Nixon debate in 1960, all candidates were present instead of candi-dates from only two parties.

The league remained out of the debates until the FCC amended the Equal-Time Provision. When hosted by a third party, the debates were exempt from the Equal-Time Provision.

The LWV stepped in and hosted the debates from 1976-84, keeping the formats open, allowing for follow-up questions. However, this made debates dangerous in the minds of party candidates because of risk of defeat or humiliation.

Both parties met and drafted a memorandum of understanding, specifying who was allowed in the audience, who could be panelists, and what follow-up questions were off limits.

The LWV exposed the document and resigned as host of the presidential debates. The Democrats and Republicans formed the Com-mission on Presidential De-bates (CPD), which currently presides over the debates.

Goodman also spoke of the necessity to hear from all parties. She pointed to the recent incident with Green Party presidential nominee Jill Stein and her vice presidential running mate, Cheri Honkala as a prime example of the need for change. Stein and Honkala attempted to enter

the grounds of the presiden-tial debate site at Hofstra Uni-versity and were later jailed for disorderly conduct.

“We need to unshackle the debates and open them up. You might still vote for the major party candidates but it’s important to hear all of the opinions presented,” Good-man said.

Goodman closed her presentation by stressing the importance of movements and citizen participation in politics. She referred to Occu-py Wall Street as one example of a positive movement.

“People are not doing de-mocracy a favor if they don’t KWV\QV]M�\W�ÅOP\�NWZ�_PI\�\PMa�hold dear,” Goodman said. “Our media is a huge kitchen table that we all sit around and discuss war and peace, life and death -- anything less than that is a disservice to a democratic society.”

After the presentation, Goodman signed books in the foyer, with attendees still abuzz.

“I was very shocked by some of the stories,” said Michelle Cronje, a sophomore from South Africa. “I got goosebumps.”

Mark Schmidt, who traveled all the way from Bismarck, North Dakota espe-cially for the presentation was impressed by Goodman. “Her presentation was so beauti-fully constructed. She’s really been in the fray and seen all XMZ[XMK\Q^M[�ÅZ[\PIVL�º

“The shock Russia felt was so short compared to the shock experienced by Africa,” Dalton said. “After that type of crisis it’s hard for places to recover.”

Polygyny also has cul-tural ties to the area.

Islam, a very commonly practiced religion in north-ern Africa, permits men to have more than one wife in some societies, though it has been banned by many other countries in the area.

It was also considered wrong to to resume sexual relations with a woman two years after she had given birth.

The impact of the slave trade can also be felt economically. With less human capital to boost the economy, many countries that were severely affected by slave trade faltered.

During the end of the presentation, the audience interjected opinions about the research.

Chuks Ugochuckwu, as-sociate professor for Geog-raphy and Planning, spoke about things he felt Dalton did not consider.

“Polygyny has been around before written word,” Ugochuckwu said. “[It] was for cultural sur-vival.”

Ugochuckwu also said that the data used was based around national borders, something the tribes of Af-rica would not have recog-nized at the time.

“Every tribe is their own independent nation,” he said. “They have different value systems, belief systems and religious systems.”

Ugochuckwu also said it was important to note that slavery started among these tribes before Europeans ever plugged in to the system.

In early 2003 Na-than hit rock bottom.

“I was homeless in Chicago [having been kicked off the traveling magazine sales job I was work-ing] and I tried to kill myself. I swallowed six bottles of Tylenol PM and Coricidin cough and cold medicine. I called 911 from a random payphone and I remember going in and out of conscious-ness as the ambulance showed up. I remem-ber puking on my foot and then I was out,” Anderson said. “It was the single-handed scariest moment of my life. I woke up two days later in an ICU. I was moved to a psy-chiatric unit for three weeks and then I went home,” Anderson said.

Anderson moved back to Minnesota and pursued some of his musical interests, forming a band called Autumn Dervish with high school friends. After about a year and a half, the band broke-up. Nathan was still struggling with his addiction and contin-ued to use.

Then about seven or eight weeks into basic training I was told that there was a note in my chart saying I was supposed to be discharged that ÅZ[\�_MMS��;WUMPW_�I had gotten lost in \PM�[P]NÆM�º�)VLMZ[WV�said.

He left 10 min-utes later. He bought a spare change of clothes and a bus ticket. His sister let him move in with her.

Finally, Nathan be-gan to realize the over-whelming detriment his usage had brought him over the years. He checked himself into a rehab program in New Ulm and started looking into pursuing his education options. He was able to live for free with his longtime friend, Sean, and started getting his life on track.

“[After the New Ulm program] I found a halfway house in St. Cloud. I went through a program called East Haven and did really well. I started going to meetings three times a week. I had learned in New Ulm that I could go back to school, so I started looking into consolidating my past loans, doing my taxes IVL�ÅTTQVO�W]\�\PM�SCSU application,” Anderson said.

He was accepted to SCSU in June of 2012 and started summer classes immediately. It was in class that he found out about the Student Recovery Program SCSU is now offering.

“One day we were going over the differ-ent communities on campus and at the bot-tom of the page was the Recovery Com-munity and I was like, ‘well I want to know about that’,” Anderson said. “I wanted to stay sober, so I applied. I had to get all the appli-cations signed and had an hour-long interview with Dr. Eggers – but I was accepted,” Ander-son said.

Since beginning the Student Recovery Program this past fall, Anderson’s recovery and renewed passion for education have been apparent.

“Nathan has ad-justed well to a sober life at SCSU. He is a great representative for the Recovery Com-munity by constantly demonstrating his passion and pride for JMQVO�\PM�ÅZ[\�[\]LMV\�in the program,” said Thaddeus Rybka, Graduate Assistant for the Recovery Commu-

nity. “He came to the Recovery Community very motivated and willing to do what it takes to stay spiritually IVL�UMV\ITTa�Å\��0M�attends AA meetings regularly, stays on top of his homework, and rarely misses class,” Rybka said.

Rybka is Ander-son’s roommate and enjoys not only helping Nathan in his recovery, but being a friend as well.

“I am looking for-ward to seeing Nathan grow and discover his true potential. When you are young in [WJZQM\a��KWVÅLMVKM��maturity level and self-esteem are generally not very high. Nathan will get there eventu-ally, but it’s a slow process,” Rybka said. “It is important to stay patient - which Na-than struggles to do at times. Growing pains are inevitable. We can’t hide our emo-tions anymore through drinks and drugs. It’s learning how to cope with those stressors in a healthy way, which is the key to success. My job is to guide Nathan and be there for him while he goes through not only the bad times but the good times as well. Sobriety is not a solo mission, it is a team effort.”

Now Anderson’s life more resembles one of a traditional college freshman than one who has struggled nearly a decade with addiction.

He waits in line at the Atwood Caribou for his daily coffee. He’s currently stressing about grades.

“I didn’t ever think this would be possible.

I’ve gone through halfway houses and I’ve worked mediocre $8-an-hour jobs. I have so much more talent and intelligence than that,” Anderson said. “I like school. I like being challenged. It keeps me focused and occupies my time, having a lot of free time and being bored is bad for somebody trying to stay sober,” Anderson said.

Anderson intends to double major in community psych and chemical dependency counseling, with a mi-nor in philosophy. His goal is to be a therapist who works predomi-nantly with chemically dependent people.

Those struggling with chemical depen-dency or alcohol ad-diction are encouraged to contact SCSU’s Recovery Community )LUQ[[QWV[�7NÅKM�I\�320-308-3981.

“The Recovery Community is a won-derful opportunity for those who are sober and want to pursue a higher education with a healthy environment. There is a social stig-ma attached to college binge drinking and my job is combat it and show students that you can have a lot of fun being sober,” Rybka said, “fun that you can actually remember the next day.”

“I urge students who are struggling with alcohol and drug abuse to give sobriety a legitimate shot,” Rybka said. “If you surround yourself with people like me and Nathan, I guarantee you will be pleasantly surprised.”

As I watch the second presi-dential debate I continue to be reassured about what I will do with my own vote; which will be for Libertarian Presiden-tial candidate Gary Johnson. However, my piece will focus on Barack Obama and Mitt Rom-VMa��)N\MZ�\PM�ÅZ[\����UQV]\M[�the debate tone was already set, with a healthy mixture of pandering and condescending remarks. These two champions of big government duke it out as Americans begrudgingly decide whom they will choose as their next leader.

Barack Obama

¹2MZMUa��ÅZ[\�WN �ITT��aW]Z�future is bright.”

That sentence was a re-sponse to a question by a college [\]LMV\�IVL�ÅZ[\�\QUM�^W\MZ#�PM�asked, “What can you say to reassure me that I will be able to []NÅKQMV\Ta�[]XXWZ\�Ua[MTN �IN\MZ�I graduate?” Reports on the plight of new graduates are con-[Q[\MV\Ta�ÅT\MZQVO�W]\��IVL�\PW[M�reports almost unanimously disagree with the president. Stu-dent debt is continuing to rise

and there does not seem to be enough dramatic job growth to give recent grads any semblance of optimism. Obama tried to explain his plan for American job growth.

President Obama then said he wants to create manufactur-ing jobs in the United States. I don’t believe a lot of students go to universities to pursue a career in low-skilled manufacturing, but I’ll play ball.

The obvious retort is to say that the role of government is not to create jobs; it is to cre-ate an environment for others to create jobs. With that being said, a major reason why there are less manufacturing jobs in America is due to high corpo-rate taxes, something president Obama has no intentions of truly decreasing. Despite his rhetoric, corporate taxes in America are 35 percent for a majority of successful compa-nies. Companies who want to continue to grow and produce more products thus seek out countries with lower corporate tax rates such as Switzerland �_PQKP�Q[�I\����XMZKMV\���IVL�India, among other places.

Companies do this so they can hire more workers. If you hire more workers your pro-

duction will likely grow, which is followed by lowering prices for consumers and thus higher XZWÅ\[�NWZ�\PM�KWUXIVa��;W�QN �President Obama was really interested in having companies invest in America he would lower corporate tax rates. Even with wages being higher in America than in other coun-tries, some corporations would gladly come back to America if the corporate tax rate were [WUM_PMZM�IZW]VL����XMZKMV\��Bringing jobs back to America would provide more educated and skilled workers, as well as amazing PR for the company. I’m not saying that all major corporations will stop exploitive overseas practices, but lowering corporate taxes would be the greatest incentive for corporate insourcing jobs back to America.

Obama said that Mitt :WUVMa¼[�Å^M�XWQV\�XTIV�Q[�ZM-ally a one point plan, and that is to help the people at the top, disregard those at the bottom, which may be true. However, the hypocrisy is stunning con-sidering how Obama talked about his vision of government, one that helps out struggling American companies and saving jobs, which sounded good until he championed his bailout of

American auto manufactur-ing businesses such as GM and Chrysler. Government picking winners and losers like this cre-ates a dangerous environment for big businesses. That environ-ment is that they do not have to play by the rules; they are too big to fail. Even if the bailouts saved a lot of jobs in Detroit in the short term, it is still philo-sophically repugnant to a free market capitalist system or to a capitalist system in general. If your business makes a less than superior product, takes out bad loans, manages itself poorly and or takes too many risks, you should fold just like any other business, regardless of your size WZ�aW]Z�QVÆ]MVKM��1N �KWV[]UMZ[�wanted to buy your products they would, and if they don’t then you must change in order for them to do so.

Mitt Romney

Mitt Romney, too, was, and has been, in favor of the bailouts in the past and now, though his

rhetoric may change from time to time, he is overall okay with the concept of bailing out major corporations and big banks alike. Besides that, however, Obama pointed out the fallacy _PQKP�Q[�PQ[�Å[KIT�XTIV�

He talks about lowering taxes or keeping them stagnant for middle class Americans and wealthy Americans alike. How-ever, Mitt Romney would like to increase the military budget by several trillion dollars, all the while reducing taxes on every-body.

The reason this is a fallacy is simply because the government really has no money of its own. This may be the biggest miscon-ception throughout the entirety of politics. The government has no money. The only money government has is what it takes from you as taxpayers or what it prints. And if the govern-ment prints too much money, the result could cause the loss of value of the money that is in your pocket, which in return is a tax. Romney suffers from the Santa Claus syndrome, which I mentioned in my last piece.

Romney talks about lower-ing taxes but he does not really discuss in detail the idea that we should have a smaller govern-ment; he really just wants his version of big government. In Massachusetts, he implemented a form of Obamacare, which...

The Oct. 8 Editorial on voting was a hard pill for me to swallow. In fourth grade Government class, the virtue of being civically engaged was instilled in us, along with the anticipation of our � \P�JQZ\PLIa��)\�\PI\�IOM��_M�_MZMV¼\�excited about the prospects of buying scratch-offs, cigarettes or spray whipped cream. We were enthralled with the idea of one day being able to cast our vote.

Last Monday’s article portrayed a different message — one of cynicism \W_IZL�I�ÆI_ML�[a[\MU�IVL�TMIZVML�PMTX-lessness toward the problems at hand.

As someone who considers herself as politically informed, I can see the appeal of giving up. Lobbyists, special interest groups, and party lines can sway our representatives more than the people they represent. But not casting our vote is something far worse. Sure, we can admit \PM�[a[\MU�Q[�ÆI_ML��?M�KIV�JM�^WKIT�about our displeasure. But instead of wallowing in our disdain of a two-party system, we can go out and vote. How are we to change the problems when we remain silent? The democratic system is

what allows our voices to be heard, and by refusing to involve ourselves in the process, we just further the issue. What would happen if all of those who felt passionate about a third-party candidate abstained from voting? Nothing; the two-party system would still win. But by not voting, we absentmindedly cast our vote for the biggest evil of them all: compla-cency.

So be informed about the election. There’s something extremely important at stake this year, and that is our future. .QVL�I�KIVLQLI\M�_PW�Å\[�aW]Z�QLMWTWOa��whether that makes them an republi-can or an egalitarian, a democrat or a libertarian, and vote for them.

Smokeless motivation: money over health?PMV�1�ÅZ[\�PMIZL�WN �\PM�[UWSQVO�

ban that the campus was, at that time, thinking of putting into effect, I thought that most of the smokers on campus would just simply ignore the policy, and as a result, it would become impossible to enforce. I was wrong; instead, when people have to smoke they walk just out-side the boundary of campus. This leads them to one of two locations; they either go to the Newman Center, which is tech-nically owned by the Catholic Church and not considered to be part of cam-pus property, or they go to Barden Park across from the Miller Center. As a result, the park, which includes a playground, is now littered with cigarette butts.

I’m rather disappointed in how the campus administration handled this case. It seems to me that their motiva-tion was money rather than the health of the community. No one wants to deal

with secondhand smoke but if you just push them off of campus someone else has to deal with them. This is unfair to those that do smoke. And if they ban smokers from the park or from around the Newman Center where will they go then? I don’t know the answer to that question but I can safely say they will go somewhere. It is also silly to assume that people will quit smoking just because they can no longer smoke on campus, not that that was the campus’s intention. The number of smokers isn’t going to dwindle until it’s not a problem; prob-lems like this just don’t go away because you make a policy. Instead we need to be thinking of ways to reduce secondhand smoke without banishing a group of students off of the premises.

The four years in your undergradu-ate college life will pass into sunsets and dusks in no time. As you stumble through classes and work your assignments into late nights, have you ever taken a pause to look back to recall the faces that you crash into every day? “What about these people?” you ask.

These smarty-pants people are the ones who get all the attention in your class and make you feel helpless at times for not knowing half as much as them. But they make you want to learn more. Sometimes, they will throw some philosophical questions at you when you least expect them. They make you think, they make you realize the importance of knowledge, they help you stay curious in life.

Well, they also make you change your mind about reading a new dictionary this coming summer, but to pick up an oil lamp and venture into a tropical rainforest instead.

Shouts of poetic lyricism were heard from the Atwood Memorial Ballroom on Thursday, as rappers from the Midwest gathered to put on Hip-Hop Against Homophobia. Toki Wright, Guante, Big Cats, See More Perspective, Heidi Barton Stink, and Kaoz took the stage to put on a show that catered to hip hop fans as well as those involved in the LGBT community.

“KVSC contacted me this summer and said, ‘Hey, we have an opportunity to bring this concert. What do you think?’” said Brandon Johnson, director of the LGBT Resource Center on campus. Part of the center’s mission statement is to eliminate heterosexism and homophobia on campus.

Johnson thought the Hip-Hop Against Homophobia show would Å\�ZQOP\�QV��<PMZM�PI^M�JMMV�UIVa�other events this month as well, because October is LGBT history

month.“Obviously, there’s a lot of

stereotypes with hip-hop, often times including sexist and racist and heterosexist and homophobic language. The whole premise of this show was really to take that language out of it and say this artform can exist without ‘-isms’,” Johnson said.

Originally the show was set to be performed in the Atwood Mall, but at the last minute it was moved to the ballroom. “It’s October in Minnesota,” Johnson said. “[The weather] isn’t exactly predictable. We thought, rather than chancing it and having people being outside and freezing, or potentially soaking wet and freezing, we better just move it inside.”

A crowd of around 100 came to hear the show. “It’s pretty solid,” said Sean Flynn, an attendee of the show. “It’s a nice clean setup, it’s easily accessible, and the perform-ers are pretty good. I don’t know [the rappers], but they can spit

ÅZM�º5ILLa�<ZMVPWTU��I�[\]LMV\�and volunteer at the event, agreed. “I really like the message they’re sending,” Trenholm said. “I’m a really big ally of the LGBT com-munity. The LGBT Resource Cen-ter said this was their month where they had a lot of things going on, and I really wanted to volunteer so here I am.”

Hip-Hop Against Homophobia shows originated in Minneapolis in 2009, and there have been many installments, mostly taking place in the Twin Cities.

“The idea wasn’t for any spe-KQÅK�KI][M�º�[IQL�/]IV\M��I�ZIXXMZ�and organizer of the event. “It was more just to bring communities together and create good spaces. But now with the marriage amend-UMV\�WV�\PM�JITTW\�_M�ÅO]ZML�Q\�would be a good time to take this out of the Twin Cities and bring it some of the other communities in the state.”

“I got on board about two years ago,” said Kaoz, a rapper

originally from Cleveland, who now lives in Minneapolis. “I felt, as a gay man, very comfortable in this state ever since I’ve moved here. I’ve never had to hide anything or felt that there wasn’t help or some space. Now for gay black people ... eh [laughs] ... it gets a little ‘iffy’ but the community here really does X]\�\PM�JM[\�NWW\�NWZ_IZL�\W�ÅOP\�for equal rights.”

“As time goes on more and more people hear about the Hip-Hop Against Homophobia shows and so there’s starting to be more of a buzz,” Kaoz said. “My dream is to go national with it because no one else is doing it, at least that I’ve heard.”

Hip-Hop Against Homophobia moved to Hopkins on Friday, and will be at Inver Hills college this week. There will be a panel put on by the LGBT Resource center called “Does God Really Hate Queer People?” on the 30th.

As the number of people dwindled on campus on Mon-day night, a small pizza party broke out in the basement of Stewart Hall, signaling another weekly performance on KVSC’s Monday Night Live.

Pabst Blue Rebellion, a local rock band with punk under-tones, took the stage this week, performing a two-part set as a camera crew revolved around them, collecting shots.

“If you guys want to get one last smoke in now would be your time,” announced one of the sound technicians before the band took the stage at ten o’clock. Ambient chatter reached higher volume as the band got closer to performing.

“We like to have a good time,” said Tom Kapushinski, drummer of the band.

A few friends of the band gathered in the multi-track studio and watched behind one-way glass as PBR let loose on

licks that would make Motor-head proud.

Kapushinski, who has taken classes at SCSU, attempted to describe the band’s genre. “It started with rock and roll and then kind of mutated… It’s stuff we like to listen to. I person-ally got tired of going to bars and seeing cover bands, and I wanted to start a project that me and my friends would really get into,” Kapushinski said.

PBR has been around for ITUW[\�\PZMM�aMIZ[��ÅVLQVO�\PMQZ�ÅTT�WN �OQO[�IZW]VL�LW_V\W_V�St. Cloud. Although the group has performed a few times at Bubba’s in Sauk Rapids, their main haven has been the Keller Bar. “It’s our bread and butter,” Kapushinski said.

All three had seen each other performing in separate bands, but never were close until they came together for music. “We played in previous bands together but we never hung out or anything,” said Evin Starr, the bassist and backup vocalist for the group.

“Yeah, we just started jam-ming one day and it worked out pretty well,” added John Leach, guitarist and lead vocalist for PBR.

Conrad Magalis, a Mass Comm. major here at SCSU, also took the time to sit down with the band in between their set and ask them a variety of questions.

“The goal of [Monday Night Live] is to bring as good quality music as we can to the area,” Magalis said while host-ing the show. Monday Night Live has seen out-of-state guests occasionally from Illinois and Wisconsin, but generally the bands performing are from the Twin Cities and St. Cloud area.

“It’s desperately in need in this town, and there’s not very many outlets of music here,” Magalis said. “There’s not the same support as you have in other areas like the Twin Cit-ies—even some smaller towns do a better job at creating that community.”

But there has been an

upswing in interest of the local music community. “A lot more people are tuning in on the TV side,” Magalis said. “I’ve had tons of people approach me and say ‘Oh you do that one show’ or ‘Hey that was a really good band.’ A lot of people are start-ing to know that it’s on TV.”

After an hour of rocking and the loss of Kapunshinki’s shirt, 8IJ[\�*T]M�:QJJWV�ÅVQ[PML�\PMQZ�playlist of originals and a few 5Q[Å\�KW^MZ[��¹)�JIVL¼[�OW\�\W�play covers to get the attention of the fans,” said Kapunshinski. “But they’re kind of obscure covers.” There are no punk ad-aptations of Bieber to be found here.

Pabst Blue Rebellion has a CD available for purchase at the Electric Fetus and at their shows. The band has a Reverb Nation page and also has three songs available for download on their Facebook.

Monday Night Live airs from 10-11 p.m. on Mondays until Dec. 10. Next week’s band will be The Sunny Era.

Rock and roll comes to Monday Night Live

Humane society pets of the week: Annie and DotAnnie is a one year old

spayed Yellow Lab with a soft golden coat. She was surren-dered to the shelter because the previous owner could no longer afford to care for her. While this lake-loving Lab absolutely adored children, she will chase cats and needs a proper intro-duction when meeting a new dog. Annie has always lived outside, but we’d like to see her get an indoor home with access to both the living room and the great outdoors. She is smart and should pick up on her house-training easily. Annie is used

to being crated at night. Come visit Annie and see if those big brown eyes won’t melt your heart!

Dot is a 3 month old spayed calico kitten with one-of-a-kind markings. Cats of this coloration are believed to bring good luck in the folklore of many cultures. Dot was surrendered with sev-eral siblings because her owner had too many animals. Even though she didn’t live with chil-dren, Dot has gotten along well with everyone she has interacted with at the shelter. She did well with dogs in her previous home and would absolutely love to go home with a playmate! You can do that with no additional expense because our “2-Purr-1”

promotion is still going on for a limited time. Adopt this cutie and bring some good luck and fun into your life!

MOVIE REVIEWER

I didn’t know much about the movie before I saw it. Normally, I take a TQSQVO�\W�PWZZWZ�ÅTU[#�Ua�friends and I used to like to scare ourselves silly on Friday nights after football games.

I don’t know if it is my age, or the gruesome nature of the movie, but Scott Der-rickson’s “Sinister” rubbed me the wrong way.

The movie is about a once successful writer, El-lison Oswalt (Ethan Hawke) who has been writing true crime for years in hopes of producing a hit. He moves his family into the house where a family was U]ZLMZML��)N\MZ�ÅVLQVO�an old projector and tapes in the attic, Oswalt begins to realize that there were nu-merous family murders, all connected in a way that he LWM[V¼\�ÅO]ZM�W]\�]V\QT�\PM�very end.

If I were to read what I just wrote, I would think

that this movie was right up my alley. Even based on the trailer (they get me every time), I was excited to see it. Boy, did I misjudge this movie.

Lucky for us viewers (not), we got to watch a realistic depiction of four people, including children, being hanged. And no, it wasn’t brief. I actually had to sit there and watch the whole process, until no one was moving anymore.

I was immediately disgusted, and thought about leaving right then and there. However, movies aren’t cheap these days, and 1�ÅO]ZML�1¼L�OQ^M�\PM�ÅTU�I�chance. I’m not sure that was a good idea.

I won’t spoil the ending, in case this review still has not convinced you not to watch it. I will tell you that the ending was... okay. Hor-ror movie directors always seem to feel the need to throw a creature into mov-ies, and Derrickson was no different in that regard.

The part that bothers me about the movie as a whole is that I could have really liked it, had it not been so graphic. The plot was actu-

‘Sinister’ takes gruesome movies to a new level

7TQ^QI�;\MJJQV[

STAFF WRITER

An unsuspecting visitor to the public library this weekend may have heard an unexpected sound ring-ing through the shelves of books. The SCSU Orches-tra graced the venue with their instruments and talent Friday afternoon.

The SCSU Orchestra consists of approximately 25 students, all who are string players. The group was described as a very large string quartet, plus a bass. It is led by Marion Judish, professor of violin and viola here at SCSU, and Phoebe Dalton, profes-sor of cello.

The library may seem an unlikely place for an orchestral performance, but it turned out to be a XMZNMK\�Å\��<PM�U][QK�KIZ-ZQML�\PZW]OP�\PM�ÅZ[\�ÆWWZ�so that library patrons could not only enjoy coffee and good books, but also a bit

of classical music.The venue wasn’t the

only unexpected part of the performance. The program consisted of works by two relatively unknown compos-ers, at least to those that don’t listen to classical mu-sic often. Most people, even those not literate in classical music, would recognize Mozart, the composer of \PM�ÅZ[\�XMZNWZUIVKM�XQMKM��The sounds of Ottorino Resphigi and Sir Edward Elgar also graced the library within tunes of ages past.

About 100 people were in attendance, and the crowd seemed to respond well to the new compos-ers and the talent of the young musicians, who were all SCSU students except for the two professors and one student from St. Cloud Technical High School.

John Loomin and Joe Dillon, two of the four cel-lists in the group, expressed pleasure at the direction the performance took. Neither

had performed in a library before and thought the experience was one they would remember.

Despite the level of professionalism the group displayed, they did not practice as often as one may expect. “We practice NWZ�\_W�PW]Z[�NZWU�Å^M�\W�6:50 every Thursday,” said Loomin.

Although the audience may not have recognized the composers of each song that was played, the mem-bers of the group certainly did. “Elgar is one of my favorite composers,” Dillon said. Loomin agreed, ex-pressing his enthusiasm for the composer’s work and mentioning his appreciation for Elgar’s work compelled him to write a ten-page dis-sertation on him.

One of the many pleased attendees was Tom Jamison, who has heard his share of classical music from philharmonic orches-tras throughout the country.

“I thought they did a

really good job,” Jamison said. “Some of those new ones, I hadn’t heard those. It’s interesting that they took music from way back.”

Also present at the per-formance was about half a dozen people from Legends, an assisted living program in Sartell. They were brought to enjoy an after-noon of free entertainment and good music, something the SCSU Orchestra has in abundance.

The group also per-formed Saturday evening at Ritsche Auditorium, and played a completely different set of music. The program consisted of works from better-known compos-ers such as Strauss, Dvorak, Grieg and Borodin.

If you want to catch \PM�ÅVIT�;+;=�7ZKPM[\ZI�performance of the year, it will be on Nov. 29 at 7:30 p.m. at the SCSU Perform-ing Arts Center.

Halloween came over a week early for some St. Cloud runners who gath-ered in the parking lot behind the Red Carpet and Brothers Bar & Grill for the Neon Party 5k race.

Runners of all ages gathered dressed in incan-descent tutus, neon glasses, knee high socks, and more.

Michael Given of Karma Marketing & Media sponsored and directed the event.

“My goal is to promote events with energy, exercise, and maybe a little bit of happy hour,” Given said.

EnduRUNce Shop has a 5k every Wednesday that ends at Brothers Bar & Grill for happy hour.

However, tonight was a much bigger occasion.

“Our charity partner is the St. Cloud Technical High School’s Cross Coun-try team,” said Given. “It’s very expensive to put on a race of this caliber. We shut down 50 intersections in St. Cloud, and we have 220 registered participants for

the event.”Activities included a

DJ, an “exercise pit”, and food provided from various downtown restaurants.

“My son and I will be walking at the end of the race making sure their are no stragglers,” said Paula Lindhorst, a volunteer from the Tech Cross Country team.

When everything was ready to go with the music blaring, they released the walking crowd at 6:30 p.m.

Steph Spychala and her three friends were ready to get the run going.

“I’ve done several 5k races in the past, but this Q[�Ua�ÅZ[\�M^MZ�VMWV�ZIKM�º�Spychala said.

At 6:45 p.m. the runners took off from the starting location, crossing through downtown. Many neon lights lit up the streets better than the streetlights them-selves.

After the race, runners 21 and older were provided with the entire second level of Brothers Bar and Grill and entry into the Red Carpet Night.

Women’s hockey swept over weekend

After sweeping the Bemidji State Beavers last weekend, the SCSU women’s hockey team wasn’t as fortunate this weekend. The Huskies were swept by the University of North Dakota on the road.

SCSU will continue their road trip next weekend when they travel to Rhode Island to take on Providence College. Both games are scheduled for a noon start time. The Huskies will be back home on November 2-3 when they take on the Ohio State Buckeyes.

The Huskies again seemed to struggle with their offensive sets, having miscommunications when they were trying to attempt many of their offensive sets. “We NW]OP\�_Q\P�\PMU�ITT�VQOP\�J]\�KW]TLV¼\�ÅVL�\PM�KW]Z\�WV�the offensive side,” Dietzen said.

This was a tough test for the struggling Huskies. The Warriors were on a seven-game winning streak. The Warriors improved to 17-3 overall and 10-3 in the NSIC, placing fourth in the tough conference behind Concordia St. Paul, Minnesota Duluth and NSIC-lead-ing Southwest Minnesota State.

“The NSIC is one of the toughest conferences and we are a young team, but we need to perform at a high level when it matters,” Blaeser said.

The Huskies have a quick turnaround since they square off against a formidable opponent in Upper-Iowa on Saturday. SCSU will look for revenge against =XXMZ�1W_I�I[�\PMa�TW[\�I�Å^M�OIUM�UI\KP�QV�\PMQZ�NSIC season opener Aug. 31, (21-25, 25-16, 19-25, 25-23, 15-10.)

Saturday

The Huskies’ woes continued as they lost once again to Upper-Iowa University in three quick sets (21-25, 19-25, 23-25.)

It was the same story that has plagued SCSU all season, playing well on defensive, but not strong enough on offense when it matters. “We just haven’t been taking care of the ball well enough as a team and that is hurt-ing us right now,” Blaeser said.

Freshman middle hitter Kellan Flynn and freshman outside hitter Rachael Burke led the offense for the Hus-kies. Each player recorded a respectable nine kills on the afternoon in front of a rowdy crowd.

After being down two sets, the Huskies made a solid comeback attempt tying the score at 23 all when sophomore right side hitter, Mary Neuendorf, provided a spark for the Huskies coming in and contributed seven SQTT[�QV�WVTa����I\\MUX\[��6M]MVLWZN �ÅVQ[PML�_Q\P�I������attack percentage. “Mary played an outstanding game, and she gave the team a bunch of energy,” Blaeser said.

Freshman libero Brianne Stamer had 23 digs, and Dani Domeier played a well-rounded match as they tried to help the Huskies comeback. “Both players have earned a great amount of playing time,” Blaeser said.

The Huskies return to the court Oct. 26 when they travel to South Dakota to take on Northern State. The Huskies ousted Northern State early on in the season in Å^M�[M\[�

These two losses put the Huskies at 6-16, 2-12 in the 6;1+��<PMa�TWWS�\W�ÅVQ[P�\PM�[MI[WV�[\ZWVO��¹?M�IZM�I�young team and have a lot of talent,” Blaeser said. “It’s just a matter of taking it and performing.”

With the cancellation of 82 games that will last until Oct. 26, the NHL as brought forth a proposal to the players’ union pertaining to the Collective Bargaining Agreement. The deadline for agreement is Oct. 25. That Q[�TIZOMTa�JI[ML�WV�I�ÅN\a�ÅN\a�split revenue.

In a rare display of candor, the NHL came out _Q\P�\PM�ÅZ[\�XZWXW[IT��_PQKP�is rare for Gary Bettman, the Commissioner, because of his greedy and stubborn ways.

In an attempt to save an 82-game 2012/13 season (including the usual schedule of playoff games), the NHL is making a substantially re-vised proposal to the National Hockey League Players’ Association. This is in regards to critical issues on which the parties have been separated and which are essential to an agreement with the NHLPA on a new CBA moving forward.

This proposal is based largely on the belief of what is a fair sharing of revenues between the players and the clubs.

This proposal does not re-quire any roll-back in the sal-aries of players, and attempts to recognize and protect prior contractual commitments. This proposal provides for increased revenue sharing, targeted to those teams that are most in need.

The NHLPA has failed to progress on the most critical economic and system-related Q[[]M[��;XMKQÅKITTa��QV�WZLMZ�\W�save the full 82-game season, the regular season schedule will have to commence no later than November 2, with seven-day Club Training Camps that must open by

Oct. 26.As a practical matter, this

means the newly written CBA must be approved by Oct. 25. The parties can achieve this by working together, jointly preserving the 82-game season for the players, the clubs, and most importantly, the fans.

Delay beyond Oct. 25 will necessarily leave everyone with an abbreviated season and will require the cancella-tion of signature NHL events. Failure to reach a prompt agreement will also have W\PMZ�[QOVQÅKIV\�IVL�LM\ZQ-mental impacts on fans, the game, the clubs, the business aspect and the communi-ties in which the games are played.

All of this will obviously necessitate changes to this offer in the event that it’s unsuccessful in saving a full season. This will be detrimen-tal to the game with a loss of a variety of revenues, most importantly television, like in the 2004-2005 season.

The NHLPA will have to make a decision and it will likely be the only offer the NHL makes because they slyly snuck this proposal in, as Bettman is known to do.

The NHLPA leader David Fehr was unprepared for the interview on Oct. 16 because he didn’t receive the proposal in a timely fashion. Fehr stumbled over his words when asked questions about the new CBA proposal, and that was the intent from Bet-tman.

The new CBA is similar to the one that ran out that would extend six years, with the seventh being optional. If accepted, it gives the players and organizations time to extend their business mediums as well as gain more notoriety.

Recently, the NHL has seen a tremendous amount of popularity because of the way the game is being played. 5WZM�[KWZQVO�IVL�ÅVM[[M�rather than bloody bench-clearing brawls has seen a spark in the grueling game.

Cap-accounting is a big part of the new CBA pro-posal and it entails a number of variety cap-space require-ments. It includes minor league players making more than $105,000 to be counted against the teams cap-space, all long-term contracts over Å^M�aMIZ[�IZM�\W�JM�KW]V\ML�against the club and lower performance bonuses are be-ing asked to take place.

The NHLPA will have to make a quick decision because there is little time to make a counter offer if they want to get the season started QV�\PM�KWUQVO�_MMS[��-^MV�though the NHLPA has made three minuscule counter offers, they were quickly re-jected. This year will see the biggest outdoor classic when the Detroit Red Wings host the Toronto Maple Leafs at Michigan Stadium.

It would be a shame to see the more than 100,000 capacity seating stadium go to waste, but fans and players are eager to see if the NHL-PA takes the deal. It’s not a horrible deal, but Bettman knew what he was doing and the NHLPA seems weary and it’s looking like they won’t come to an agreement.

This is not good news for fans and players because the two sides are far apart on the CBA agreements. It’s looking more and more like the 2004-05 season, which caused enormity for the NHL.

The onus is all on Bett-man, who should be replaced as Commissioner by next season.

The Detroit Tigers celebrate the 4-0 sweep of the Yankees in the 2012 ALCS.

More setbacks for NHL

The Detroit Tigers ad-vance to the World Series for the 11th time in fran-chise history by completing the sweep over the punch-less Yankees, putting them to bed in an 8-1 victory due \W�ÅVM[[M�XQ\KPQVO�NZWU�ITT�four starters. Detroit awaits the winner of the St. Louis Cardinals and San Francisco Gi-ants, as the Cards have a 3-2 lead, and are trying to JMKWUM�\PM�ÅZ[\�\MIU�\W�win back-to-back World Series since the Yankees in 1998-2000. Detroit was the second team in history to beat the Yankees in consecutive ALCS series since the 1921-22 San Francisco Giants. <PMa�_MZM�IT[W�\PM�ÅN\P�team in history to sweep a best-of-seven series without trailing in any point in the series. New York left its bats at \PM�TQ\\TM�TMIO]M�ÅMTL�QV�\PQ[�series, scoring an abysmal 11 runs in four games and batted .166 as a team; the worst ever by a team in the post-season. They scored in three of 39 innings, cul-minating one of the worst ALCS’s ever recorded by the historic franchise.

The Tigers’ pitching was phenomenal from the ace to the number four XQ\KPMZ�PI^QVO�I������-:)�as whole, the best ever in a post-season series. The Yankees, who hit 248 homeruns during the season only managed three in the ALCS, two of them in the ninth inning of game one, and one in the eighth in-ning of game three. Justin Verlander had another stellar outing in game three, only giving up one run in 8 1/3 innings; striking out three. He might not have had the strike outs PM�PIL�QV�PQ[�ÅZ[\�\_W�W]\-ings of the post season, but his pin-point accuracy and command were spot on. Max Scherzer pitched a remarkable game one in the 6-4, 12 inning victory, but hurled an even better clinching game four, striking out ten, having a no-hitter through six innings. Delmon Young, not Miguel Cabrera, was named ALCS MVP batting .353 with two home runs and six RBIs. Young has been a Yankee killer the last two post seasons and continued his dominance against the pinstripes. The biggest storyline was the utter meltdown of Alex

Rodriguez, who recorded one hit in the series, and was a pathetic three for 25 with 12 strikeouts in the 2012 post season. All his hits came from left handed pitchers. He was benched for games three and four be-cause of his inability to hit right handed pitchers and the fastball, but did come into the game in the sixth inning against Scherzer, where he grounded out. He then batted against Phil Coke in the eighth, and again grounded out. This should be an inter-esting off-season for the Yankees with much contro-^MZ[a�[XZMILQVO�TQSM�_QTL�ÅZM�about the lineup from the top of the list to the bottom. Having eight players over the age of 37 and three players over the age of 40, it’s safe to say that the Yankees are over the hill, and are the senior citizen team of the league. They will have to make drastic changes to overcome this nightmare of a post-season. The Tigers will return to \PM�?WZTL�;MZQM[�NWZ�\PM�ÅZ[\�time since 2006 when they won it all, and will have the advantage because of rest time. But no matter whom they face, the Cards or Gi-ants have recent success.
