The U.S. Department of Justice filed a lawsuit against North Carolina on Monday challenging the states voting law on the basis of dis- criminatory intent and joining state lawsuits by the N.C. NAACP and the American Civil Liberties Union of North Carolina. The department filed the lawsuit Monday, saying that provisions in the law like shortening the early voting period by a week, eliminating same-day registration, requiring a government-issued photo ID and making it so that ballots cast in the wrong precinct wont be counted discriminate against minorities. By restricting access and ease of voter participation, this new law would shrink, rather than expand, access to the franchise, said U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder in a news conference. Allowing limits on voting rights that disproportion- ately exclude minority voters would be inconsistent with our ideals as a nation. According to an April State Board of Elections study, more than 318,000 North Carolinian voters do not hold a valid ID from the N.C. DMV. Holder said the department will present evidence of the laws racially discriminatory effect. The case also calls for a preclearance regime in the state, which would require that the federal government reviews changes to voting law before implementation. Intentional discrimination is dif- ficult to prove, but not impossible and the case has plenty of evidence, said Bob Hall, executive director of Democracy N.C., a left-leaning advo- cacy organization.

Above the poverty line or self-employed Buy insurance on your own Qualify to participate in the health insurance marketplace to compare plans and determine eligibility for tax credits and subsidies to pay for health insurance. North Carolina has two providers in its exchange: Blue Cross Blue Shield and Coventry. Lowered premium rates, yet higher deductibles mean paying a couple thousand dollars per year. Costs for essential health care benets over that price are covered by insurance. Three primary care visits are covered per year. Medicaid did not expand to increase coverage under the ACA. Coverage has changed on a state by state basis. Eligibility changes per person depending on a series of factors including income, disability and family status.

By Eric Garcia Senior Writer As the Affordable Care Acts health care mar- ketplaces open for enrollment today, Piedmont Health Services, a community health center with a branch in Carrboro, is working to inform regu- lar patients about their new insurance options. Weve sent out letters to over 9,000 patients who are uninsured, said Chiffon Jenkins, patient account manager at the center. She said the letters gave patients information about their health insurance options. As part of the federal law, which passed in 2010, North Carolina will have a federally- run online marketplace where people without insurance can shop for health care plans and learn their options for subsidies and tax credits. Uninsured North Carolinians above the pov- erty level can shop for plans through Coventry Health Care of the Carolinas, which will par- ticipate in exchanges in 39 counties, or through Blue Cross Blue Shield North Carolina, which will participate in all 100 counties. Coverage will go into effect Jan. 1.

Franklin St., said Tom Caruso, a renovations specialist from Bobbitt Design Build, the contracting com- pany working with the restaurant. Caruso said the restaurant will move in the second week of December. The franchise offers pizza, quesadillas, grinders, wings and Topperstix a pull-apart pizza with dipping sauce very similar to the popular Pokey Stix that made Gumbys a local phenomenon. Gumbys closed before my time, said sophomore Maura Hartzman.I always wanted to try Pokey Stix. Hartzman said she works at Artisan Pizza Kitchen, another pizza restaurant on Franklin Street. I probably wont eat at Toppers, Hartzman said. I would rather support somewhere locally owned. The building will not be anything like how it was when Gumbys was there, Caruso said. He said demoli- tion started last week. We are getting new plumbing and equipment for the building, Caruso said. It has been gutted down to nothing and we are start- ing from scratch. Workers from Precision Plumbing worked to redo the plumbing of the building Monday. Construction worker Shannon Burlingame said they were redoing plumbing and tearing up concrete. Toppers will be one of many pizza restaurants on Franklin Street, including Artisan Pizza Kitchen, I Love NY Pizza, Italian Pizzeria III and Mellow Mushroom. I live within one block of five pizza places, said Tim Gillis, a sophomore.I probably wont go to the new one.

From staff and wire reports inBRIEF Guns allowed on campus as of today By Nick Niedzwiadek Staff Writer Concealed carry permit owners will now legally be allowed to bring handguns onto UNC-CHs and other public universities campuses, as a new state law goes into effect today. But private colleges and universi- ties in the state can still enforce their own campus gun policies and Duke University, Elon University and Meredith College have all indi- cated that they will continue to ban guns. The law allows concealed carry permit holders to bring a gun onto a campus as long as the weapon is stored in a closed compartment or container within a locked car. The car must be in a public parking area. The law had been opposed by UNC-system officials and campus police chiefs across the state prior to being passed by the N.C. General Assembly this summer. Advocates of the law have said it will allow legal gun owners to exercise an already-permitted right and will lead to increased safety on campuses. But Randy Young, spokesman for UNC-CHs Department of Public Safety, said law enforcement officers already tasked with protecting the campus community could poten- tially do it better than a citizen with a firearm on campus. Law enforcement officers have training and equipment for alter- natives to using firearms, such as tasers, Young said. Not every firearm owner has those alterna- tives to diffuse a situation available to them. Still, Young said the law will be enforced on campus, and it impacts a limited number of people in spe- cific circumstances. We have some major concerns about weapons on campus, Young said. But it needs to be clarified that this applies to a very small number of situations. Meanwhile, several private uni- versity officials say they will not change campus gun policy to mirror the law. Smith Jackson, vice president for student life and dean of students at Elon, said existing policies have worked well on campus, and said he wonders why there needs to be a change. For years, we have had a policy banning guns. We post signs around parking lots letting students know that guns are not allowed on cam- pus, Jackson said. Why would we need guns on a college campus other than the law enforcement that is trained to do so? Kyle Cavanaugh, vice president of administration at Duke, said he agrees that there does not need to be a change in gun policy at his campus. Guns are not allowed on cam- pus, he said. This has been our practice for many years, and will continue to be. Young said while the less restric- tive gun rules will be enforced at UNC-CH, he is unsure that the new policy will make for a safer campus. We do not believe that bringing guns closer to an academic environ- ment is helpful, and it can lead to more issues than it solves. state@dailytarheel.com carrboros lens dth/Natalie hobermaN New York based photographer Jesse Kalisher works in his studio in Carrboro on Monday. He specializes in black and white photography. Photographer tells stories from world in carrboro By Megan Caron Staff Writer There are four black and white pictures hanging in the corner of Jesse Kalishers office at his photography gallery in down- town Carrboro. I think black and white forces us to get right down to the story, he said. Theres no place to hide in a black and white pho- tograph. Kalisher is a photographer from New York City, whose journey to Carrboro involves circling the globe, waiting for the right photographs and a lot of storytelling. I thought I was going to be a storyteller through writing, he said. I had bought a little snapshot camera for my travels, and when I started taking pictures, I thought I was capturing memories, and I realized I was really trying to tell stories. Though his works have been displayed in the Smithsonian and the Louvre, Kalisher did not always want to be a photographer, especially after his father, also a photogra- pher, tried to turn him away from it. I grew up with a healthy disrespect for what it takes to succeed as a photographer, Kalisher said. My father did everything in his power to dissuade me from becoming a photographer. Kalisher graduated from Northwestern University in 1984 and began working in advertising. During his time in advertising, Kalisher said he made TV commercials and traveled every week, until he realized he wasnt happy. So he moved on to his next job as a con- tributor for multiple NPR radio programs, such as Marketplace, Savvy Traveler and Day to Day. Kalisher relates his work as a contribu- tor to his work as a photographer. I would do exactly what I ended up doing with my camera, but I was doing with words I was telling stories, he said. Kalisher admits the start of his career as a photographer was not glamorous. Early in his career, he took on a few consign- ment jobs, taking prints to the shop where the store would price them for $30 and Kalisher would receive half of the sales. The first month in that shop I sold three prints, and I was ecstatic that three people thought to pay $30 a piece for my prints, and I got to take home 45 bucks, he said. Eventually, Kalisher was able to expand from a few prints a month to working at his offices in Carrboro, which provide prints for clients nationwide mostly hotels and busi- nesses interested in displaying his works. David Winton, who works in the creative department at Kalishers gallery, was ini- tially hired to run print and production for Visit the gallery Hours: 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday to Wednesday, 9:30 a.m. to 8 p.m. Thursday and Friday, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday Location: 209 E. Main St., Carrboro the gallery. We mostly sold to gift shops, and it was mostly Jesses photography, Winton said. That was five years ago. Its grown quickly by leaps and bounds, Winston said. Helen Kalisher, Jesses wife, is the cre- ative director for the gallery. She said the gallerys client base has grown from zero hotels to about 30 hotels a month. And it keeps on growing we keep hir- ing people to keep up with the work load. Its amazing how much it has grown, she said. Jesse Kalisher said he slowly built up a successful, expansive business by constant- ly working hard and by setting goals. Never be afraid of failing, Jesse Kalisher said. Very few people get to go from zero to the finish line in a heartbeat. Most of us have to work a long time, and take a lot of small steps to get there. arts@dailytarheel.com Tarheel Takeout sees signicant revenue boost By Oliver Hamilton Staff Writer Its name might suggest other- wise, but Tarheel Takeout doesnt make much of its money from stu- dents. Instead, the company, which delivers food from local restau- rants that typically only offer dine-in or carry-out, makes its money off large group orders and its growing geographic presence in North Carolina. About 70 percent of 33 UNC students that were surveyed by the Daily Tar Heel said they have not used Tarheel Takeout. But during the last three years, co-owner Charles Douthitt said Tarheel Takeouts revenues have grown 27 percent. And after delivering food for 16 years, the company is finally starting to earn a profit. Revenue grew tremendously from 2011 to 2012, and this year it has been looking pretty good, said Wes Garrison, the other co-owner of Tarheel Takeout. Despite the turnaround, the duo said its service is not cheap and can present problems to people on a budget, like students. The service requires a minimum of $10 worth of food at checkout before tax and has a $5 delivery fee. We want people to understand that we are not the cheapest, but we offer food from great local places that you cant get otherwise, which allows for more healthier choices, Garrison said. Were working on a group order- ing service, which will allow stu- dents to cut some costs from their order. The service still maintains strong ties to the University by delivering large orders to different depart- ments and hiring UNC students, Douthitt said. Douthitt added that the business has considered having a receipt printer to expedite the process that often takes time to transfer receipts from the restaurant to Tarheel Takeout. Garrison started a similar take- out service to Tarheel Takeout in Raleigh and Durham, but bought Tarheel Takeout in 2006. His idea of delivering restau- rant food to homes and businesses stemmed from similar services offered in other parts of the coun- try. These takeout businesses are something we dont really have in the Southeast, but exist mostly in the Northeast, especially in Boston, he said. Garrison said a lot has changed since 2006 and he has had to make several adjustments to the original concept. A lot of money came in, but a lot went out to restaurants and drivers so there was not much left over to support ourselves and our families, he said. In order to cut costs, Garrison said he has refocused his idea and shifted the business to Chapel Hill. The duo closed the companys Raleigh office and cut its spending on advertising. Douthitt said he has helped by creating a new system to expand the business. dth/KathleeN harriNgtoN Tarheel Takeout driver Dominic Ciampa delivers food on his first day at work. Tarheel Takeout revenues have increased in the last three years. Recently, we have created Takeout Central, which allows the business to expand to new areas, such as Greensboro, and not add new business names. city@dailytarheel.com Owners emphasize the companys convenient service, despite cost. Unc studies nerve gas treatments By Brian Freskos Staff Writer A federal defense agency has given UNC sci- entists a $4.47 million grant to develop a stream- lined method for treating people to exposed chemical nerve agent. The five-year project was conceived late last year, but it comes amid Western efforts to dis- mantle Syrias chemical weapons stockpiles in response to Augusts poison gas attack that killed hundreds of civilians. The research team, headed by UNC chemis- try professor Joseph DeSimone, is working to incorporate microscopic needles into a patch that can deliver a life-saving antidote. The concept is similar to nicotine patches, except the technique would breach the skin. DeSimone said compared to hypodermic nee- dles, the patches are painless and easier to ship, distribute and administer. Now we have a really easy-to-apply, anybody- can-do-it kind of technology that still affords very fast absorption into the circulation system, he said. The Defense Threat Reduction Agency, an arm of the U.S. Department of Defense, requested ideas late last year to better administer such anti- dotes, DeSimone said. His team had been exploring potential appli- cations for microneedle technology for some time and applied for the agencys grant. UNC announced the award in mid-September. While DeSimones team pioneers a solution to save lives in potential chemical attacks, a separate yet related project is unfolding in Winston-Salem. Dr. Anthony Atala, director of the Wake Forest Institute for Regenerative Medicine, heads a group trying to build a body on a chip a miniaturized system of human organs that mimics the bodys response to harmful chemical and biological agents. Atala said in an email the chip will be more accurate than animal testing because it uses human cells. Dr. Clint Florence, acting branch chief of vac- cines within the Translational Medical Division at the Defense Threat Reduction Agency, said in a statement the program could decrease the time and costs associated with testing potential therapies. (That) would have a direct and positive effect on the ability of the United States government to respond to a chemical or biological attack, he said. The $24 million federally-funded effort plans to create tiny organ-like structures that mimic the function of the heart, liver, lung and blood ves- sels, Atala said. While the UNC and Wake Forest projects have similar intent, they are not collaborating. The products are not connected beyond the fact that they are both efforts to improve response to biological and chemical agents, Atala said. state@dailytarheel.com researchers received a $4.47 million grant from defense agency. some gun owners will be able to keep weapons locked in cars on campus.

On the wire: national and world news Government on brink of shutdown WASHINGTON D.C. (MCT) A broad swath of the public might not even notice if the federal govern- ment partially shut downs Tuesday, but many federal employees, government con- tractors and users of govern- ment services are likely to feel some degree of pain. The wallets of at least 800,000 federal workers fur- loughed in a shutdown would be thinner, at least temporar- ily. They would not be paid until theres an agreement to fund the government anew. Some of the government services immediately affected are largely invisible, but impor- tant. The State Department, for example, would have to halt some processing of passport applications in federal offices not run by the agency but that are shut down, potentially threatening business or vaca- tion travel of unsuspecting citizens. A shutdown would bring a mixed bag for the military and its contractors. Soldiers at home and abroad would get paid, but they might face delays in receiving that pay if a shutdown proves protracted. The Defense Department is also allowed to maintain emergency police, fire and medical services during a gov- ernment closure. But about half of the Pentagons 718,000 civilian employees would be barred from working. All travel and training of both military and civilian personnel would stop, as well, except for activities needed to support exempt military operations and emergency services. Museums and national parks nationwide would close or operate on the thinnest of staffing. Its a shame because the teachers at their school put an enormous amount of effort into planning and organizing this and, I mean, way above and beyond, said Cindy Hunter, a parent, and I feel so sorry for them because they are in a scramble right now wondering, What are we going to do?

Gigis Cupcakes opens in Chapel Hill Syds Hair Shop leaves Chapel Hill Camerons leaves University Mall After a two-year wait, Gigis Cupcakes has finally brought its 300 cupcake recipes to 140 West Franklin. Regional owners Jude Crowell and Rick Setaro hosted the grand opening Friday, which brought in about 500 customers. The whole concept is that you have one chance to make a great impression with this cupcake, Setaro said. Setaro said the team decided to open up on Franklin in the spring of 2011, but permits were a roadblock. We knew itd be worth the wait, he said. Crowell and Setaro became business partners after a 20-year friendship. Operating near a college campus will be a new challenge for the duo, who have two other loca- tions in Cary and Raleigh. Ive got this amazing list of the different cupcake varieties, Setaro said. You can mix and match almost anything take the bourbon cream cheese, put it on a chocolate cupcake and dip it in chocolate. Syds Hair Shop will close its Rosemary location after a problem with the original stores lease. Store manager Jenny Chrispley said the owners origi- nal plan was to keep the Rosemary store open, but they were unable to renew the lease. For the most part, everyones excited and supportive of the move, Chrispley said. We are pretty much burst- ing at the seams at the Rosemary location. Joseph Polcaro, who owns the Rosemary Street build- ing, said he was only able to offer Syds a two-year lease, though they asked for five years. Syds co-owner Bradford Scott said he was disappoint- ed not to keep both locations, but the shop will still add two chairs and a stylist at its store on Graham Street. There are no hard feelings, he said. Investing in renovations for just two years doesnt make sense for the business. Chrispley said shell miss having a parking lot for clients. Camerons gift shop and jewelry store will move to 300 East Main after 32 years in University Mall. The store will have a soft opening on Oct. 15, followed by a ribbon cutting on Nov. 18 from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. There are some people who are nostalgic for the old store, and I totally understand that, said co-owner Wendy Smith. But once we tell them our plans and our vision for the future, they come to the new side. Smith, who owns Camerons with her sister Bridget Pemberton-Smith, said the pair looked at several differ- ent shopping centers before settling on 300 East Main. We got in on the ground level and had some good talks with the leasing department, Smith said. We per- sonally thought it was a really good fit. Smith said the stores mission is simple. We try to sell things that are environmentally friendly, that give back to the community, that have a purpose, she said. eastendchapelhill.com W e st F ra n k lin S t. W e st R o se m a ry S t.

News Tuesday, October 1, 2013 The Daily Tar Heel 5 By Jackson Knapp Staff Writer The Student Congress Ethics Committee hopes to meet rarely this semester. But if a conflict within the legislative body arises that demands their attention, leaders of the group say they will come together to address it. The Ethics Committee is one of four standing commit- tees within Student Congress. It is primarily in charge of ensuring that representatives arent violating any of the provisions in the Universitys Student Code, which sets forth the responsibilities and regu- lations of student government. Brittany Clark, chair- woman of the committee, said common ethics violations include members of Student Congress repeatedly missing meetings without notifica- tion and instances when a complaint is lodged against a specific representative. She said meetings are called when a violation arises, and there have been fewer complaints this year than the previous session. In the past, people would get heated and make per- sonal attacks on each other, but people have been good about not doing that this year, which surprised me but its been nice, Clark said. If Student Congress votes that a violation was commit- ted, the punishment ranges from censure to impeach- ment. The committee is made up of five voting members who are all also members of other committees. Laura Tollini, a member of the Ethics Committee, said she feels members of congress have been professional. As long as people con- tinue down that path there shouldnt be any further vio- lations, but you cant predict what people will do, she said. Last semester, the Ethics Committee censured two members of Congress including current Speaker of Student Congress Connor Brady for distributing e-mails regarding other congress members stances on fund- ing for the Tar Heel Rifle and Pistol Club, and former speaker Paige Comparato for an unrelated matter. Brady is now a non-voting member of the committee. He said being censured didnt make him regret releasing the e-mail, but did make him reassess relation- ships he built with members of Congress who intended to target individual organiza- tions. Peter McClelland, a member of the ethics com- mittee and president of the College Republicans, accused Congress of having a liberal bias earlier this year when his groups budget request was cut by $5,090. Clark, however, said the accusations of bias are ill- founded. She said the College Republicans didnt get their request cut by more than any other organization. I honestly think it was more of a perception issue than a reality, she said. Brady said the College Republicans have since raised enough money to pay for their speakers through fundraising. He said he doesnt think the ethics committee will need to take up accusations of bias against the group. I dont think that was an issue of ethics, I think that Student Congress has a budget just like anyone else does student organization funding is cut all the time, he said. Clark and Brady both said McClellands seat on the eth- ics committee in light of his accusation of bias is not an issue. Clark said the committee is in charge of maintaining a list of the political organizations representatives are involved with outside of Student Government so that they can abstain from voting if their club is involved. Brady said he does not think the Ethics Committee needs any set goals because it should only plan to investigate if circumstances warrant it. If the committee ensures that members of Student Congress are behaving them- selves as well as advocating for students the way theyre supposed to, their goals are set for the year. university@dailytarheel.com covering 80 percent and plati- num plans covering 90 percent of all medical expenses. Catastrophic plans, which require people to cover their own expenses up to a point to help keep costs low for essen- tial health benefits, will also be offered for those younger than 30 or who receive a hardship exemption. Theres going to be enough choices so it could be confus- ing, Oberlander said. Four N.C. organizations have received about $3 mil- lion in federal money to serve as navigators to teach people their options. Kirsti Clifford, spokeswoman for the N.C. Department of Health and Human Services, said in an email that the depart- ment will ask County Social Services Agencies to work with navigators. Given much of the confu- sion and lack of information surrounding the federal governments exchange, the administration felt it was the right thing to do, she said. As insurance coverage increases and large numbers of people enter the system for the first time, many experts are still wondering how health care might change in the state. Jenkins said the changes could lead to more people get- ting care outside the clinic if they have medical emergencies. Still, there are some who will still not have access to afford- able care, said Pam Silberman, president of the N.C. Institute of Medicine. In 2012, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled the feder- al government could not force states to expand their Medicaid programs. In February, the N.C. General Assembly passed a bill rejecting Medicaid expansion. Silberman said many people who are below the poverty level will not qualify for tax credits or subsidies or for Medicaid. If they are childless, not disabled and not elderly then they will not qualify, she said. Despite these changes, Piedmont Health said it will continue to provide health care, regardless of whether its patients have insurance. If theyve been getting CAre ACt from page 1 are very strong in our favor, Hall said. But Gov. Pat McCrory criti- cized the lawsuit in remarks on Monday, saying it was an overreach and without merit. This is really about North Carolina politics and politi- cians deciding that North Carolina cannot have the same common sense laws to protect the integrity of the ballot box, he said. Advocates of the law said that it is meant to fight voter fraud. But Holder said in the news conference that he didnt see any proof of fraud. McCrory said the state has hired an outside law firm to work with the legal counsel from the state attorney gen- eral. N.C. Senate President Pro Tempore Phil Berger, R-Rockingham, and N.C. House Speaker Thom Tillis, R-Mecklenburg, condemned the lawsuit in a joint statement. The Obama Justice Departments baseless claims about North Carolinas elec- tion reform law are nothing more than an obvious attempt to quash the will of the voters and hinder a hugely popular voter ID requirement, it read. Hall said lawsuits of the N.C. chapter of the ACLU and the N.C. NAACP might be com- bined with the Departments lawsuit in a single hearing. Rob Schofield, policy direc- tor at N.C. Policy Watch, said the federal government has also taken legal action in defense of voting rights in Texas and South Carolina. lAwsuit from page 1 footbAll from page 1 was to go over the game film from the loss. And after hob- bling into Kenan with a boot on his left foot Monday, it was the first thing he addressed. Going back and looking at the tape, we just didnt perform where were capable of, he said. I think it was just every- thing. We couldnt run the ball effectively, passing game wasnt there in the first half. We rallied and put some drives together and got back within 14, which is positive. But we never could just find a way back in the ball game which is frustrating. Renner would not disclose why hes wearing a boot, but said he plans to play against Virginia Tech Saturday. The quarterback likely sustained the injury in the fourth quar- ter against the Pirates, when he was knocked down and left of the ground clenching his foot. But he played the remainder of the game. After watching the defense on film, senior cornerback Jabari Price said he was embarrassed, especially when seeing the Tar Heels had only nine not 11 players when the ECU offense ran a play in the second quarter. But the main problem for the UNC defense continues to be missed assignments. Price said while watch- that will be open until 3 a.m., according to the restaurants website. Representatives from Toppers Pizza could not be reached for comment. The franchise has several locations across the United States, and the Chapel Hill addition will be the third in the state, including one located on UNC-Charlottes campus. I would dance on the grave of the Chapel Hill Gumbys, said Eric Geiger, a junior at UNC.It was too small, cramped and slow. Geiger said he will prob- ably not eat at the new restaurant but still misses Clearly, we are among a growing list of states where the U.S. government has been challenging voter suppression activity. state@dailytarheel.com toppers from page 1 Peppers Pizza, a restaurant that vacated its downtown location in March. I want to see if they will fill the hole that Peppers left in my heart, he said. Senior Jared Dix said he will most likely eat at Toppers. I ll probably go there at least once, said Dix. Im sure that next year people will be drunkenly eating Topperstix. city@dailytarheel.com ing film, the team counted 37 missed assignments dur- ing the record-breaking 101 offensive plays run by ECU. Coming from the nine seniors on that defense with me, Tre (Boston) and a few other guys that cant hap- pen, Price said. We cant have 37 missed assignments and expect to win a football game, regardless of what our offense did or regardless of how fast they went. Thirty- seven missed assignments and you ll lose every game. But what wasnt featured on film was the lack of focus senior tailback A.J. Blue said his teammates had head- ing into the game. Many Tar Heels took the Pirates too lightly, Blue said Saturday. On Monday, redshirt soph- omore T.J. Thorpe echoed the seniors disappointment. There were a lot of guys in the locker room who were jumping around and shout- ing, saying that we were ready to make plays and blow this team out, Thorpe said. For some of those guys, they had a lot of us fooled. Im not saying they were scared or anything but they werent as ready as they thought they were. For the Tar Heels, perhaps the deeper problem of a lack of focus and passion is something that cant be fixed through a post-game film study. sports@dailytarheel.com care with us all this time, theyre already familiar with the doctors, theyre familiar with the staff, Jenkins said.

Sports Tuesday, October 1, 2013 The Daily Tar Heel 6 By Michael Lananna Senior Writer Spring exhibition matches are nothing new. When coach Mike Fox was a player himself in the late 70s, the North Carolina baseball team hosted the New York Yankees for a matchup every other pre- season. But playing games in the fall? Fox had never done that before his squad took on the Ontario Blue Jays on Monday. That was weird, Fox said after UNC topped the Blue Jays 11-4. That was really weird seeing another team coming down the steps over there in September. It was also a valuable change of pace. The Tar Heels are four weeks into a six-week fall practice season, which nor- mally consists of intrasquad scrimmages followed by an intrasquad Fall World Series. By bringing in the Blue Jays, who were overmatched as an 18-under amateur league team, Fox thought he provided his players a fall adrenaline boost. Its always fun to have another team come in here and try to beat them, sopho- more catcher Korey Dunbar said. It just kind of amps up everything. It wasnt a conventional game by any stretch UNC was leading 9-4 after nine innings and continued to play until the top of the 14th in order to give more pitchers work. Some players came into dth/dAniel Wilco Freshman A.J. Bogucki was one of six pitchers who saw action on Monday. UNC beat the Ontario Blue Jays in an exhibition match. most of last season, played at third base Monday. Its the same position No. 6-overall draft pick Colin Moran held for the past three seasons. Ive never played there much in my life, Lassiter said. But Im practicing as hard as I can and just learn- ing the little things. Fox said Lassiter is his likely opening-day starter at third, but he wouldnt commit to any decisions just yet. The action may have come earlier, but the evaluation process is nowhere near complete. Theres always competi- tion, Fox said. Im never going to tip my hand in September. sports@dailytarheel.com the game, were removed and came back in; others batted out of order, and the rules, as a whole, were abandoned. But Fox was able to evalu- ate his players in game action earlier than usual and that was the goal. The coach said he was impressed by what he saw from freshmen Adam Pate and Wood Myers who batted first and second, respectively, and showcased some of their agility on the basepaths. He also had the opportunity to see six pitchers five fresh- men, one sophomore take the hill, and they combined to allow just one earned run. With the Tar Heels losing six players to the MLB draft, those freshmen could potentially play pivotal roles this season. UNC might also need vet- erans to fill new roles. Sophomore Landon Lassiter, a shortstop by trade and a designated hitter for UNC baseball team takes down Blue Jays By Edgar Walker Staff Writer Just hours after witness- ing his teams last place finish at the Jack Nicklaus Invitational, North Carolina mens golf coach Andrew Sapp struggled to find a way to explain the performance. Were there any bright spots? No, not really, Sapp said. It was shocking that everybody could play this badly at one time. The Tar Heels final tally of 66 strokes-over-par was the worst mark in the 12-team event, hosted by Ohio State. UNC finished 76 strokes behind No. 16 California, whose 10-under-par mark earned them the tournament title. After a fifth place finish at Carpet Capital Collegiate in Georgia and a fourth place at the Tar Heel Intercollegiate in September, Sapp said he cer- tainly did not expect his squad to be returning to Chapel Hill with a last-place finish. We felt like we could compete with any of the other teams there, the third-year coach said. You want to go out there and compete with everybody, including some of the best teams in the country. No. 4 Oklahoma and No. 25 Oklahoma State rounded out the tournaments top three, finishing at 9-over and 11-over, respectively. Ohio State finished eighth on its home course with a mark of 47-over. Every year youre going to have one or two horrendous tournaments, Sapp said. We just hope this was the only one. Sophomore Keagan Cummings shared his coachs displeasure for the outcome of the tournament. Once things start going poorly, its easy for them to snowball, Cummings said. A native of Ireland, Cummings led the Tar Heels with a score of 12-over-par. He finished at even par in his first round and ended up tied for 31st overall out of 60 golfers on the individual leaderboard. The lack of a Tar Heel near the top of the leaderboard was one of the main reasons for the teams struggles in Ohio, according to Sapp. When we played well at Carpet Capital, we had a guy winning the tournament, Sapp said. When we played well at Tar Heel, we had a guy finish fourth. When you have guys competing to win the individual title, as a team you ll play well. This week, we didnt have anyone finish in the top half of the field. Despite the disappointing performance, Cummings said the team is eager to get back on the course in two weeks at the Rod Myers Intercollegiate, which will be played at Duke. We know were a really good team and good teams have bad performances, Cummings said. Next we have Duke. If our five guys are playing well, theres no reason we cant win that tournament. Until then, however, the Tar Heels will have to live with their performance at the Nicklaus Invitational. When you have multiple guys playing poorly, some- times they all join in and play poorly together, Sapp said. Unfortunately, sometimes golf is contagious, whether its good or bad. And this time it was bad. sports@dailytarheel.com DTH ONLINE: Go to dailytarheel.com to read about pitcher Zac Gallens strong game. dth file/Kevin hu Junior Bailey Patrick shot 24 over as the Tar Heels finished last out of twelve teams in the Jack Nicklaus Invitational.

I think the words music video have a negative connotation due to whats happened on MTV and whats taken place over the last two decades, maybe three almost. What do people think of when Jim Mills, a six Grammy- winning banjo player, will be talking about the history of the banjo today as a part of the Southern Journey series, hosted by the Southern Folklife Collection. Mills spoke with staff writer Katie Hjerpe about his career and interest in banjos. DAILY TAR HEEL: When did you first start playing the banjo? JIM MILLS: My father played, and my grandfather played not profession- ally but there was always a banjo around my house. Hearing Earl Scruggs play for the first time was my inspira- tion to start playing and still is to this day. I kind of picked it up by myself by listening and watching other people play. Ive never had any for- mal lessons very few blue- grass musicians have. DTH: How did your career really start to take off? JM: I started off playing with local bands and traveling around playing bluegrass. I was lucky to be seen by Doyle Lawson and Quicksilver they are considered one of the top five bands in bluegrass music. When I was 20 years old, he called me and offered me a job playing banjo in his band. That really propelled me into the national spotlight as a bluegrass banjo player. DTH: Where did your career go from there? JM: Ive never looked for a job in my life every employer has contacted me. I worked for Doyle Lawson for about five years and recorded about eight records, which put me in front of everybody who is everybody in the industry. I was then offered a job with Dolly Parton she was going through her bluegrass phase. While I was working for her, Ricky Skaggs offered me a full-time posi- tion in his band. I worked with him for 14 years, won the International Bluegrass Music Association banjo player of the year award six times more than anybody has, as far as I know and I won six Grammy awards. DTH: How does it feel to win a Grammy? JM: Its awesome, it really is. Its your highest peers, its music industry folks, and its a ATTEnD THE LEcTuRE: Time: Today, noon Location: Wilson Library, Pleasants Family Assembly Room Info: http://bit.ly/1bn7uSL Courtesy of Jim mills Award winner Jim Mills discusses his career playing banjo and his event in the Southern Journey Series. wonderful feeling that they like what you do. When you record something you hope everybody likes it, you like what youre doing, and you hope everyone else likes it, and its nice to get that confirmation. DTH: What will your event in the Southern Journey Series discuss? JM: Ive been a road musi- cian for the past 25 years, Ive never done any teaching or speaking. I decided to do some of these things because Im a big historian of the pio- neers of the three-finger style. Scruggs style originated in North Carolina, and being born and raised in Raleigh, I was interested in the history of that and the lesser-known pioneers of the style who came along in the 1930s who never made music a career but were a big influence on the people that did. Students By Sharon Nunn Staff Writer Recently appointed Sen. Valerie Foushee, D-Orange, spoke to the UNC Young Democrats Monday about her new position and some of what the N.C. General Assemblys covered this summer. Foushee, a former state House of Representatives member, was appointed earlier this month to replace former Sen. Ellie Kinnaird in the District 23 seat, serving Orange and Chatham counties. Foushee outlined her con- cerns with the legislature. You hear the leadership say that theyre putting more money into education than ever before, Foushee told stu- dents. But when you consider that there are more students than ever before, and that the needs are greater, youve not raised the amount that is going to cover the needs. She also touched on the Affordable Care Acts stipula- tions and how state health officials should handle the new law. People can start enrolling in the health insur- ance marketplace today. We need to make sure that people have the access and knowledge of the act that people understand that (it) is not a job killer and is not some- thing that is going to depress our economy, she said. She said her priorities in the state Senate will include advocating for a reconsidera- tion of Medicaid expansion and ensuring every eligible voter has access to the polls. UNC Young Democrats President Peter Vogel said he was glad Foushee could share her knowledge on political matters with students par- ticularly the voter identifica- tion law, which is the subject of a U.S. Department of Justice lawsuit filed Monday. Her thoughts on being a woman involved in legislation, and her being an African- American speaking to voter fraud related to the recent voter I.D. bill are important, Vogel said. Shes a strong, confident Democrat that would offer different perspec- tives on many things involved with North Carolina politics. Wilson Parker, the groups political action co-chairman, said their chapter will help make people aware of the new voting requirements. Were also committed to doing what we can to help the state party elect Democrats because we do think that the one-party rule in Raleigh has been absolutely disastrous for our state, Parker said. Foushee said in an interview that she plans to work with the Young Democrats as they iden- tify student concerns. Being here tonight shows that theyre engaged. They need to remain engaged because thats the only way change happens. state@dailytarheel.com can ask questions concern- ing the earliest things of the three-finger style, as well as the particular banjo that all those guys chose: the Gibson Mastertone. I study and deal with those on a daily basis. DTH: In what ways do you deal with banjos outside of performing? JM: I collect, play and record, and also buy, sell and trade pre-World War II banjos. Folks come from all over the world its really a niche business. As far as I know Im the only guy in America who deals with pre- WWII Gibson banjos, which are considered the Stradivari banjos of bluegrass. Ive been all over America, across Canada and I even went to Johannesburg, South Africa, and bought banjos. Theyre everywhere, but the major- ity is in the South in North Carolina, Virginia, Tennessee and South Carolina. It seems a lot of them migrated here, and a lot ended up in the hands of amateurs trying to imitate their heroes thats expected because this is where the music took off from. arts@dailytarheel.com Foushee talks to Young Democrats BES T ?

The article describes a system in which RAs must report sexual assault disclosures to the deputy Title IX coordina- tor, incorrectly characteriz- ing the system and spirit of the universitys response. Instead of mandatory reporting, we are building a system which enables us to consistently offer help and assistance to any and all students who disclose their experiences of victim- ization. All forms of sexual violence can have signifi- cant effects on students, staff and faculty, including physical and emotional trauma, ongoing health problems and challenges related to academic success. We take sexual violence seriously and are working to continue to improve UNCs response systems and adjudication efforts. As a university commu- nity, we have a responsibil- ity to our students to con- nect them to resources that can help them heal, such as Counseling & Psychological Services. We have a responsibility to accom- modate students and help them fulfill their academic commitments. We have a responsibility to prevent future acts of harassment, discrimination and violence from occurring within our community. To that end, certain peo- ple on campus including employees who are charged with a significant respon- sibility for student welfare and are representing the institution have a respon- sibility to connect students to a place where they can hear all of their options. When students are fully informed of all their options, they can decide for themselves if they want to make a report about what happened to them or seek other support. Students remain in the drivers seat and can choose what they want to do next. Our whole campus can work together to prevent all forms of vio- lence and discrimination, and we can create a safe community for everyone. Christi Hurt Interim Title IX Coordinator

But while the music festi- vals purpose is the same, much has changed since Woodstock. First of all, the frequency of festivals has multiplied. Though Woodstock attracted half a million at its peak, it only lasted a few days in one place. Nowadays there are several mega festivals, plus dozens of smaller ones across the country. These events seem to be eco-disasters: they guzzle huge amounts of energy to power instruments, speakers and light displays, generate heaps of waste and create tons of emis- sions from fans traveling from far and wide. However, festival organizers are wising up to their impact and trying to please the planet along with music fanatics. Many festivals now use sustainable energy sources like wind, solar or bio- diesel. Outside Lands in San Francisco featured the larg- est solar-powered stage in the country in 2013. Over the three-day event, the stage avoided the CO2 emissions equivalent to the carbon released in burning 216 gallons of gasoline. Bonnaroo became the first festival with a per- manent solar array, which can generate the equivalent of 20 percent of Bonnaroos power consumption each year. Festivals are minimizing waste through the old three Rs mantra: reduce, reuse, recycle. Several have added compost and recycling bins next to trashcans. At Outside Lands, all of the food containers and utensils are compostable and biodegradable. In 2012 the festival reported a 75 percent diversion rate with 87 tons of compost and recycling. A major benefit of pairing environmentalism with music is making the movement more fun. One of the most innova- tive projects is Outside Lands Clean Vibes Trading Post. It rewards concertgoers for col- lecting cans, bottles and other material with prizes such as organic clothing, band mer- chandise and food vouchers. Festivals, always a great marketing opportunity for big brands, are now a market for green causes. One dollar from every 2013 Bonnaroo ticket went to a solar-powered sustainable farm and Outside Lands hosts a Beach Clean Up. And although these super- sized festivals draw the largest crowds, green efforts are not limited to national events. Carrboro Music Festival, a free event held this past week- end, got into the eco-spirit by offering a bio-diesel shuttle bus to cut down on travel emis- sions. Children used recycled materials to create art, and the provided compost and recycling bins were overflowing. One of the great things about music is a capacity to inspire. The green movement can take advantage of this by turning festivals into forums for education and motivation. After all, if we want to keep enjoying our outdoor music fes- tivals, we cant just pave para- dise and put up a parking lot 10/2: MINORITY STATISTICS Columnist Trey Mangumon the lowenrollment of black males.

As con- sumers in the global econ- omy, we have the ability to influence the way in which the world market operates, and as students we should mobilize to ensure that UNC is a leader in demand- ing that corporations treat their workers fairly. On Sept. 13, the End Deathtraps Campaign at Chapel Hill delivered a peti- tion to Chancellor Folt call- ing on her to strengthen the Universitys Labor Code of Conduct by signing on to the Accord on Fire and Building Safety in Bangladesh, with the explicit goal of greater accountability of university licensees for the safety of the workers who make their clothing. With 9 out of 10 garment factories considered structurally deficient by the Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology, this is an issue that requires urgent action.

Shannon Brien 16 United Students Against Sweatshops Apply for eve Carson Scholarship now TO THE EDITOR: In her time at UNC, Eve Carson constantly demon- strated her passion for the Carolina Way the leader- ship, spirit and compassion embodied by her fellow stu- dents every day. As student body president, she envi- sioned a junior-year scholar- ship to honor students who best live the Carolina Way. The Eve Carson Scholarship, established in her memory, has recognized nine outstanding students since 2008, enabling them to follow their passions and further their role in the Carolina community. Scholars are awarded a stipend to pursue their pas- sions during the summer before their senior year and a scholarship covering half the cost of attendance dur- ing their senior year. The Eve Carson Scholarship committee encourages all juniors to apply. We are seeking appli- cants that demonstrate passion, service, leadership, transformative growth and, most importantly, the Carolina Way. Application details can be found at evecarsonscholarship.unc. edu/apply. Applications and recommendations are due by Oct. 9 at 5 p.m. Email ECSquestions@gmail.com with any questions. As Eve Carson said, Study hard and work hard, play hard, keep an open mind, take pride in yourself, in your school, in what you produce and the way you help others; if you make mis- takes, make sure you learn from them and never give up, stay strong to the finish. Mary Liz Entwistle 15 Eve Carson Scholarship I ncreasing bicycle park- ing downtown should not come at the cost of limiting availability of motorist parking spots. A bike corral, which is able to park 12 bikes, was recently constructed in the place of a metered park- ing spot on West Franklin Street. This stretch of the road is home to numerous popular businesses such as Mediterranean Deli and McDonalds, yet it didnt have any bike parking until now. However, the town should be wary of creating too many more corrals if it Parking for all EDiTOriAl means the loss of parking spaces. Cycling advocates argue that the addition of bike corrals will decrease car traffic by encouraging drivers to bike instead. However, most drivers will not suddenly turn to cycling just because bike parking is now available downtown. The number of cars searching for open spots on Franklin Street will likely remain as high as ever. Bike corrals are very popular in cities such as Portland and San Francisco, where a large percentage of the popu- lation uses bikes to get around. While biking is more common in Chapel Hill and Carrboro than in the rest of the state, its not prevalent enough to justify the replacement of parking spots with corrals. Building more corrals will not result in a cultural shift toward bike-friendli- ness, and it will not signifi- cantly increase the number of people willing to bike on Franklin Street. Rather, it will simply anger motorists who already face frustra- tion when trying to park downtown. The new corral on West Franklin Street was the first to be constructed on a state-owned roadway. This is a historic moment for increasing bike-friend- liness, but the state should not create more corrals until the time comes when demand for bike parking outweighs the need for car parking. Bike corrals should not replace car parking. T he decision to return almost $600,000 worth of grant money intended for water studies back to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency is bewil- dering and could directly impact the wetlands and streams of North Carolina should fracking occur. The EPA awarded the N.C. Department of Environment and Natural Resources two grants total- ing almost $600,000 in June. One of the grants specifically allocated $222,595 to test the water from wetlands and streams where hydraulic fracturing What the frack? EDiTOriAl will probably take place. By giving the money back, the DENR has ostensibly decided that these tests are not in the best interest of the states wetlands a notion that must be considered care- fully and with a shrewd eye. Tom Reeder, the direc- tor of the Division of Water Resources, has said that the money was returned because the funded studies would have been completed too far in advance of the drilling to be useful. He also said that the scope of the stud- ies would have covered too wide of an area. Neither of these reasons seems to hold water. The grant was awarded to the state, and the state has the ability to modify the parameters on the study as it sees fit, in order to ensure its effectiveness. Neither reason provides enough of a basis to explain sending hundreds of thou- sands of dollars back to the federal government. This move is all the more ques- tionable since the DENR has seen its funding cut significantly since McCrory has been in office. Reeder has said that the study will still get done. But without this injec- tion of funds, the study could suffer, lessening our understanding of the impacts fracking will have on the environment. Fracking has not been in practice long enough to deserve a pass on using studies funded by the EPA. The state shouldnt pass on funds for fracking studies. O wners of the Rathskeller prop- erty should make an effort to reach out to students for their input and take into account the sug- gestions of town develop- ment officers before leasing the new spaces. Students make up a majority of the downtown market, and involving the student voice in this leasing decision would be beneficial not only for the students who may use the new businesses there, but also for the owners of the property. Leasing to a business owner who is more likely Pack the Rat right EDiTOriAl to succeed would help ensure the businesss longevity, which would benefit the owner of the property in the form of an incoming rent check month by month they can depend on. The quick business turnover on Franklin Street and the repetitive- ness of the businesses downtown not only makes it tough for business own- ers to compete, but also it makes students less inter- ested in going downtown to shop because there is little variety. The towns ideas of turn- ing the space into retail or an art studio and/or gallery could be something new for downtown-goers. There are boutiques and other clothing stores on Franklin Street, but an alternative from the pricey shops and UNC-focused sportswear could be suc- cessful. Not only would a differ- ent style of clothing store be a new and unique place for students and residents to shop, but also it could bring a new kind of shopper to downtown Chapel Hill, which would benefit all Franklin Street businesses. An art gallery and/or stu- dio would also be beneficial because the Chapel Hill and Carrboro area has a history of supporting the arts. Making a smart leasing decision based on the opin- ions of the people that will be using this space most at the front end would pay off for months and, hopefully, years to come. Property owners need to seek input from community. editOrS nOte: Columns, cartoons and letters do not necessarily represent the opinions of The Daily Tar Heel or its staff.
