Lt. Gov. Sheila Simon spoke about education reform at Lawson Hall Wednesday night.

Simon said one area of focus for education reform is community colleges. She said she wants to increase the amount of students who complete their degrees, whether it be earning a certificate or an associate degree.

Simon said as of Oct. 6 she has visited all 48 community colleges in the state to discuss this goal.

“You really have to know more about community colleges and be a more visible presence at them,” Simon said. “Each of them has a niche. Each has a way they fit into the community.”

She said one of the biggest issues colleges face is about half of students who enter them aren’t prepared for college

level math and English classes.

“We need to start blurring the lines between high school and college,” Simon said.

She said smaller schools are implementing college level math and English earlier. She said those schools don’t have a very broad curriculum, so they try to work with community colleges so their students will take college credit courses earlier.

Simon said she also wants to focus on ways to direct tax dollars more efficiently to the classrooms. She said she believes one way this could be done is to lower property taxes and raise income taxes so the school funding can be distributed more evenly.

The Southern Illinois Reading Council and the College of Education and Human Services hosted the speech.

Full ! rottle and Red Bull was students’ tendency to abuse them not only by consuming too many, but also by mixing them with alcohol, masking symptoms of intoxication. UNH President Mark Huddleston repealed the decision the same night because he said there was not a clear rationale to eliminate energy drinks as an option for students.

Joshua Harper, a senior from Ashton studying business, said he typically consumes four NOS energy drinks per week. He said he consumes energy drinks before meetings or study sessions to stay alert.

! e National College Health Assessment Executive Summary reported in fall 2010, 25.4 percent of students reported stress was the top reason they did not meet their highest academic potential. ! e second highest reported cause of academic impediment was when 17.8 percent of students said they had di" culty sleeping. ! e survey was a national research survey of 18 million college students.

SIUC Department of Public Safety o" cers told Occupy Carbondale protesters to remove their tents at 6:30 a.m. Wednesday from the lawn in front of Quigley Hall.

Following tent removal, numerous protesters tied down a large tarp over the Buckminster Fuller Dome and relocated beneath it for shelter from the rain. Katy Wyant, of Makanda, said campus police returned to the site to tell the group to remove the tarp from the dome.

“Some of us got up on top of the dome to hold the tarp and a bunch of us lied around the inside,” Wyant said. “We held onto it with our bodies and (campus police) began cutting it into pieces while we were holding it … Now all we have

le# are shards of some of these things. We all witnessed the police vandalizing our private property.”

Rod Sievers, university spokesman, said Occupy Carbondale is allowed to protest but not allowed to camp out on campus.

“No one is allowed to camp on campus,” Sievers said. “! e homeless are not allowed.”

SIUC’s Demonstration Policies and Procedures, as posted on its website, does not speci$ cally prohibit tents or other forms of shelter during a protest or demonstration.

Sievers said administrators reached an agreement with the group around 4:30 p.m. Wednesday that gave it permission to use two pop-up canopies only if there is rain.

Sievers said the university gave the

group permission earlier this week to protest on campus 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Now, students who sleep overnight would be suspended and non-students would be immediately arrested.

He said the agreement is between university administration and Occupy Carbondale and would not be precedent for future protests.

Occupy Carbondale is one of many branches of Occupy Wall Street, a movement that started in New York City when people began to protest in the $ nancial district Sept. 17. Supporters of Carbondale’s group have said they want to bring democracy to southern Illinois.

Kyle Cheesewright, a graduate student in speech communication from Durango, Colo., and member of Graduate Assistants United, said the tents provided shelter from weather.

With midterms wrapping up and $ nals being six weeks away, some students turn to energy supplements to keep them awake while they study for tests late at night.

Some of these supplements include co% ee, ca% einated beverages, ca% eine pills and Adderall to stay alert and awake while studying. Adderall, Ritalin and other prescription drugs have become popular among college students and young professionals who use them to improve performance according to an article in TIME magazine. TIME reported the drugs are normally prescribed to treat ADHD but healthy students use them to improve focus, concentration and memory.

Jason Gillman, director of the Wellness Center, said some believe energy drinks actually provide energy, but in reality they just stimulate the body’s functions.

The University of New Hampshire attempted Oct. 1 to ban the sale of energy drinks on campus because of associated health effects. Many students use energy supplements such as caffeine pills, energy drinks and Adderall to help stay awake

while cramming for tests during midterms and finals. Although students may believe these supplements give them more energy, they actually just stimulate the body and increase heart rate, said Jason Gillman, director of the Wellness Center.

It seems Lance Berkman was destined to play in the 2011 World Series.

Once his time was up with the New York Yankees at the end of the 2010 season, Berkman looked to the west to arouse his career a! er he struggled to rebound from his ailing knees.

He narrowed his decision to two teams: the Texas Rangers and the St. Louis Cardinals.

He chose St. Louis because he thought he would have a better chance of getting back to a World Series, but as it turns out, he might have ended up there either way.

Perhaps it was his performance that got the Cardinals to this point of the season. Berkman " nished the regular season with a .301 batting average, 94 RBIs, 90 runs and 31 home runs.

As for the rest of the team and the Series, it could be expected to be an o# ensive showdown.

Cardinals " rst baseman Albert Pujols has hit .419 throughout the postseason, with third baseman David Freese hitting 4.25 and le! -" elder Matt Holliday hitting .375.

$ e Rangers’ o# ense is led by right-" elder David Murphy with a

.391 batting average, catcher Mike Napoli with a .316 average and le! -" elder Josh Hamilton hitting .2933 throughout the postseason.

$ rough the Division Series to the Championship Series, both teams’ hitters continued to warm up the further they got into October. Texas averaged four runs per game in the Division Series while the Cardinals averaged 3.8. $ is was a Cardinals lineup against the Philadelphia Phillies, perhaps one of the best pitching sta# s in baseball.

In the Championship Series against the Detroit Tigers, the Rangers bumped up to an average of 6.5 runs per game, while the Cardinals did the same with their average of 7.2 against the Milwaukee Brewers’ pitchers.

Before the start of the postseason, the starting pitchers

for both teams have been shaky at best. $ e top four starters for the Cardinals have a combined 5.68 ERA in the postseason, while the Rangers’ top four have a 5.35 ERA.

$ e most promising feature these two teams have is their bullpen. Of the pitchers who have made at least three appearances, the Cardinals have a 2.39 ERA with a 1.54 batting average against in 42 innings, while the Rangers have a 5.84 ERA with a .244 batting average against in 39.2 innings pitched.

What is even more impressive about the Rangers’ bullpen is what the numbers look like without right-handed reliever Koji Uehara, who is the outlier with his 33.75 ERA and .556 batting average against in his 1.1 innings pitched.

Without Uehara, the Rangers bullpen posted a 1.18 ERA and .192 batting average against.

As the Rangers and Cardinals closely match up all through the board, both team’s closers have also had similar success this postseason. Texas’ closer Ne! ali Feliz has had four saves in four opportunities and has a 1.17 ERA in his 7.2 innings pitched. He has allowed only one earned run on three hits, with four walks and " ve strikeouts.

The Cardinals’ Jason Motte has been even more savvy with his non-existent 0.00 ERA and .040 batting average against in his 8.0 innings pitched.

With the way these two teams match up, nothing less than interesting should be expected for this series.

Though baseball is a game of numbers, everybody knows that anything can happen in October.

CORY DOWNERDaily Egyptian

LAKE FOREST — Chicago Bears quarterback Jay Cutler wasn’t apologizing or expressing any regret for shouting a profanity directed at o# ensive coordinator Mike Martz.

Instead, he brushed it o# as nothing major.

“$ ings happen. You guys were " ghting in the hallways last week,” Cutler said Wednesday, referring to an argument between two reporters. “I’m not going to make a big deal of this. It’s not a big deal. We’re all in the same team in this building. We’re going to try and win football games.”

A TV camera caught Cutler shaking his head late in the " rst half a! er taking a play call through his headset during Sunday’s 39-10 victory over the Minnesota Vikings. Moments later, a microphone caught him apparently telling quarterbacks coach Shane Day to relay a message to Martz in the booth that was not exactly rated PG.

Asked if he regretted it, Cutler responded, “No.”

Martz said he knew nothing about the outburst or the clip, saying, “Run that by me again?”

Told what happened, Martz laughed and said, “He’s directing it at who?”

“Well, if it was at me, that’s probably the nicest thing that a player’s said to me during the game,” he said. “No, you’ve got to understand during the course of a game a lot of things get said. It’s a very strong, very competitive environment. $ at stu# , that’s not an issue, really. $ at’s part of the deal. But during games, a lot of things get said — trust me — by everybody. So that’s not an issue.”

$ e Bears (3-3) are preparing for this weekend’s game in London against Tampa Bay (4-2). It’s been a long year already for Chicago, with a stagnant o# ense and porous defense at times. And now this.

$ e Bears were leading 23-3 in

the closing minute of the " rst half when Cutler went o# , apparently upset about a third-and-7 call at the Vikings 32. Matt Forte took a hando# and got hit for a 1-yard loss, leading to a " eld goal by Robbie Gould.

$ at Cutler vented in such a lopsided game seemed unusual and raised suspicions that there might be some deeper issues. Earlier in the week, he had called for changes while reiterating that it's not easy to maintain faith in Martz's o# ense when he's constantly being pounded by the defense.

No quarterback has taken a bigger beating the past two years than he has under Martz. $ e 71

sacks he's absorbed during that span by far are tops in the NFL, although he no longer leads the league this season. $ at honor goes to the Rams’ Sam Bradford with 21, two more than Cutler.

He was sacked just once in two of the past three games against Carolina and Minnesota, although he was constantly on the run while being taken down three times in a loss at Detroit in between. He got the ball out of his hands quicker against the Vikings, and the blockers held their ground against Jared Allen.

As for the idea that there are lingering issues with Martz, Cutler shook his head no.

WASHINGTON — U.S. senators and health o- cials are taking on a baseball tradition older than the World Series itself: chewing tobacco on the diamond.

With the Series set to begin Wednesday between the St. Louis Cardinals and Texas Rangers — a team that started life as the Washington Senators 50 years ago — the senators, along with health o- cials from the teams’ cities, want the players union to agree to a ban on chewing tobacco at games and on camera. $ ey made the pleas in separate letters, obtained Tuesday by $ e Associated Press.

“When players use smokeless tobacco, they endanger not only their own health, but also the health of millions of children who follow their example,” the senators wrote to union head Michael Weiner. $ e letter was signed by Dick Durbin of Illinois, the No. 2 Democrat in the Senate, and fellow Democrats Frank Lautenberg of New Jersey, Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut and Senate Health Committee Chairman Tom Harkin of Iowa.

$ e senators noted that millions of people will tune in to watch the World Series, including children.

“Unfortunately, as these young fans root for their favorite team and players, they also will watch their on-" eld heroes use smokeless tobacco products,” they wrote. Smokeless tobacco includes chewing tobacco and dip.

“It’s going to be kind of hard to ban that,” Texas Rangers pitcher Matt Harrison said. “$ ey probably would have a big " ght on their hands for that. ... $ ey can hide it a little bit better, I guess — not be doing it in the dugout and showing it where kids can watch and stu# . But I think it’s kind of like your own freedom. If that’s what you want to do, then you do it.”

With baseball’s current collective bargaining agreement expiring in December, the senators, some government o- cials and public health groups want the players to agree to a tobacco ban in the next contract. A coalition including the Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids, the American Academy of Pediatrics, the American Cancer Society and the American Medical Association has been pushing for

one since last year.“Such an agreement would

protect the health of players and be a great gi! to your young fans,” the senators wrote. Durbin also sent copies of the letter to the player representatives for his home state teams, the Chicago White Sox and Chicago Cubs, as well as the representative for the Cardinals, a team that draws Illinois fans from across the river in Missouri.

Commissioner Bud Selig endorsed the ban in March, but the players union hasn't committed to one.

Weiner said in June that a “sincere e# ort” will be made to address the issue. Union spokesman Greg Bouris said Tuesday that since the issue is subject to collective bargaining which is currently taking place, it would be inappropriate to comment.

In Senate speech Tuesday, Durbin said, “Let’s not let the health and safety of young baseball fans across America be a bargaining chip between the major league players and the owners. Let’s win one for the kids across America.”

$ e " rst World Series took place in 1903, but chewing tobacco

in the sport dates well back into the previous century, when the habit was a popular pastime in American culture, not just on baseball diamonds. Players used tobacco juice to so! en gloves, keep their mouths wet on dusty " elds and doctor baseballs (the juice was part of the spitballer’s arsenal until baseball banned the spitter in 1920).

Some baseball players interviewed by $ e Associated Press last month were receptive to the idea, but others viewed a ban as an infringement on their freedom. Baseball banned smokeless tobacco in the non-unionized minor leagues in the 1990s, and recent call-ups from the minors spoke of “Dip Police” who would come through clubhouses and cite players if they saw tobacco at their lockers, subjecting violators to " nes.

$ e health o- cials from St. Louis and Arlington, Texas, asked that players in the World Series voluntarily abstain from using tobacco, in addition to calling for a permanent ban.

“The use of tobacco by big league ballplayers at a single World Series game provides millions of dollars worth of free

television advertising for an addictive and deadly product,” wrote Dr. Cynthia Simmons, the public health authority for Arlington, Texas, and Pamela Walker, the St. Louis interim health director. They said that with tobacco companies banned from advertising on TV, they “literally could not buy the ads that are effectively created by celebrity ballplayers using tobacco at games.”

The federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says smokeless tobacco can cause cancer, oral health problems and nicotine addiction, and stresses it is not a safe alternative to smoking. Despite the risks, the CDC's most recent survey found that in 2009, 15 percent of high school boys used smokeless tobacco — a more than one-third increase over 2003, when 11 percent did.

Prior to last year’s World Series between the Rangers and San Francisco Giants, Rep. Frank Pallone, D-N.J., called on the teams to tell their players not to use tobacco on the field or in the dugout.

Residents of 820 W. Freeman St. may once again need to pack their bags a* er the building’s owner, Global Housing, failed to pay for utilities.

“) e service was used, and like any other customer they have to pay,” said Ameren representative Leigh Morris.

Both Ameren and Carbondale city sta+ posted notices on the building Monday.

City sta+ posted a notice to vacate because the owner failed to pay about $1,000 in water bills for the past month, said Kevin Baity, director of development services.

He said if Global Housing doesn’t pay, building inspectors will make a door-to-door walkthrough of the

building Monday to make sure no one still lives there, then shut o+ water service in the a* ernoon.

Baity said turning o+ utilities would disable the building’s , re protection systems, which would make it uninhabitable in terms of safety.

He said to his knowledge Tuesday, the city had not been able to contact a representative from Global Housing or Campus Habitat.

Ameren’s notice was for termination of electricity service for unpaid bills. Almost $6,000 is owed.

Morris said Ameren has not received payments since August. He said he could not comment on whether Ameren had any contact with the owners.

Morris said no date has been set to turn o+ the building’s electricity, but

it would be in the near future.Campus Habitat used to manage

the building for Global Housing but has completely terminated its connection with 820 W. Freeman St., said Rob Martin, Campus Habitat executive vice president of operations. He said Global Housing has taken back management of the building.

He said because Campus Habitat took on management of the building, it was ultimately Global Housing that was responsible for paying bills.

“I think it’s a culmination of everything that’s happened there,” he said.

Property management has failed to provide any straight answers to tenants about what’s going on or who even runs the building now, said a tenant who requested not to be named for fear of being hounded by the landlord.

ENERGYCONTINUED FROM 1

At Southern Illinois University Carbondale, 31.6 percent of students reported stress as the leading cause of academic impediment in 2007, while 28.4 percent of students reported illness as the cause and 26.7 percent of students reported sleep di/ culty was the problem. ) e 2007 data is from the latest reported from the National College Health Assessment.

When midterms and , nals come around, Harper said he can , nd it stressful to manage the time between studying, class and meetings with his Registered Student Organization.

“It’s de, nitely a stressful time and is

probably the reason I do drink energy drinks,” he said. “I feel I can get things done quicker.”

Christopher Roulhac, a junior from Hazel Crest studying radio-television, said he not only goes to class but also works part-time, and the stress of time management can take a toll on the body. He said he has to stay up late in order to complete class assignments.

“It can be draining mentally and physically, and there are times I need a Red Bull or 5-Hour Energy to sort of wake me up,” he said. “When you have to keep energy to work, go to class and , nd time to study and do homework, (energy drinks) come in handy.”

Gillman said ca+ eine is the primary ingredient in energy drinks.

He said the stimulating e+ ects of large ca+ eine doses include an increased heart and blood rate, increased breathing rate and high blood pressure.

“One of the things about ca+ eine is that it can signi, cantly alter sleep patterns,” he said. “Many people think they can drink a Red Bull at 10 o’clock and go to sleep by 11.”

Gillman said consuming caf-feinated beverages a* er 6 p.m. can cause unhealthy sleep patterns which lead to sleep deprivation and, in turn, increases stress levels.

“) e problem with students staying up late is that time and time again cramming for midterms or , nals can lead to more stress,” he said. “) ere are

a plethora of other issues as well, such as negative interactions with roommates, playing video games, watching movies, going out, partying and working a graveyard shi* at a job.”

Harper said an alternative to the energy drinks to help with his stress level are relaxation exercises and a consistent sleep cycle.

“If you have an erratic sleep schedule, that will just tire you out simply because you’re always up and you can’t sleep,” he said. “You’re losing time that you’re not intending to lose.”

Manuel Tabb, a junior from Chicago studying mechanical engineering, said he’s stressed about lack of study time when he works late hours as a referee for intramural sports.

“I relieve that stress by playing basketball, riding my bike or working out in the Rec,” he said.

Gillman said if students want to decrease the amount of stress they have, exercise is the best way coupled with a week dedicated to healthy sleep patterns. He said the Wellness Center would recommend students avoid turning to the overuse of ca+ einated drinks as they can increase the stress levels.

“To me, when students are stressed and using energy drinks, they actually could be increasing their stress,” he said.

Of the group, Cheesewright said four individuals actively resisted the tents’ removal but were not arrested.

“! e (four) collapsed onto the tent,” he said. “At which point, the police yanked them o" of the tent, took the tent away and then le# .”

Lt. Harold Tucker, $ eld operations commander for the Department of Public Safety, said protesters have remained peaceful throughout the process and said he wanted to avoid arresting as many protesters as possible.

“It just doesn’t accomplish anything,” he said. “! at’s not the purpose. Naturally, I think when people think of protests and people who do not comply, the next step that you hear is arrest. ! at’s not necessarily so.”

However, he said the possibility is always there.

“We understand that they have a cause,” Tucker said. “! ey have a mission and a goal. ! ey don’t see the perspective from the university … protesting is OK, but some of how you do it is not.”

! e number of protesters increased from seven to more than 20 through Wednesday.

Lt. Tucker said he is concerned the protest is growing in numbers, which would cause more tents.

He said o% cers asked the group to remove the tents because they are considered unlawful living quarters.

“What makes it unlawful is the fact that it’s not a residential area. ! e protest part of it is OK,” he said. “It’s not a living quarters … It’s not a camping ground. It’s not a designated overnight spot. ! at’s what makes it unlawful according to the protest policy.”

! ere is a part of the policy that refers to not allowing protests to stay overnight, Tucker said.

! e D&'() E*)+,'&- could not $ nd a section in SIUC’s Demonstration Policy that prohibits protesters from staying overnight with tents or other forms of temporary shelter.

According to the policy, freedom to protest by lawful means must and will be protected by all authority available to the university. However, when individuals’ or groups’ actions interfere with the legitimate rights of others and are directed at the disruption of the normal processes of university life, they must and will be resisted, the policy stated.

Cheesewright said he doesn’t think Occupy Carbondale is impeding on university life.

“We were pretty careful to make sure we le# all of the walkways open,” he said. “We don’t harass people as they come by. Mostly we have signs and anyone who approaches us is more than welcome.”

He said the group is familiar with SIUC’s demonstration policy.

Cheesewright and three Occupy Carbondale supporters had an impromptu meeting Wednesday with Peter Gitau, associate vice chancellor

and dean of students, to express their concerns about the lack of shelter during the protest.

Cheesewright told Gitau he doesn’t understand how using the tents as shelter from the weather posed a greater health and safety risk than not having shelter.

Gitau said other tents on campus, such as those used for Homecoming, are regulated for safety, whereas the protesters’ tents are not.

“If (the university) allows a tent on the grounds and allow them to sleep in the tents, we are responsible. We are liable,” Gitau said.

He said the group is also not a Registered Student Organization, which he believes is part of the problem. He said there is also a question of leadership, liability and responsibility.

Lt. Tucker said an o" er was made Monday to allow protesters to set up camp across the street at the Gaia House Interfaith Center, but Cheesewright said the group voted that same day it would not leave its original spot.

Cheesewright said he believes campus police initially removed the tents to send a message to the protesters.

OCCUPYCONTINUED FROM 1

SIMONCONTINUED FROM 1

Cynthia Pender, co-president of SIRC, said the organization wanted Simon to speak about future goals of southern Illinois education.

“In Illinois, there’s a lot of legislation that’s been passed ... ! e testing is going to start changing around 2014,” Pender said. “We’re curious to see where that’s going to go. ! ere’s information that tenure might be gone for teachers and there will be performance-based evaluation. Teachers in southern Illinois and the deans at the college want to be prepared.”

Cathy Mogharreban, associate professor of curriculum and instruction, asked Simon about changes in the basic skills test and how it will a" ect her students. Simon said she would be willing to meet with Mogharreban in her Carbondale o% ce to discuss

it. Mogharreban said she appreciated Simon’s response.

“It helped me understand that she is marginally aware of the test of basic skills, and she understands the importance of it and is very open to learning more,” she said.

Jan Waggoner, director of teacher education, co-sponsored the event because she said her department has similar education issues as SIRC.

“I think the (presentation) was something that everyone can relate to regardless of their background, degree or emphasis,” Waggoner said. “Everyone can relate to something that was said by the speaker and the audience.”

Simon closed the discussion by saying she wanted this to be the beginning of the education reform discussion rather than the end.

Lt. Gov. Sheila Simon addresses issues concerning the decline of education Wednesday at Lawson Hall. One of the main ideas Simon said she wanted to pursue was blurring the lines between high school

and college, which means giving high school students more opportunities to take college level classes. One of Simon’s goals is to have 60 percent of Illinois students graduate with some type of secondary degree by 2025.

! e only thing really surprising about the Occupy Wall Street movement is that it didn't happen sooner. ! e United States has a long history of friction over policies that enable an elite to thrive at the expense of ordinary people.

Later in the 19th century, populists decried the overweening power of the Wall Street "devil $ sh." ! e tentacles of $ nance, they insisted, not only reached into every part of the economy but also corrupted churches, the press and institutions of higher learning, destroying the family and suborning public o% cials from the president on down. When Democratic Party candidate William Jennings Bryan vowed during his campaign for the presidency in 1896 that mankind would not be "cruci$ ed on a cross of gold," the populist-inspired "Boy Orator of the Platte" was taking aim at Wall Street, and everyone knew it.

! e trust they worried most about was "the money trust." Captained by J.P.

As the new century began, condemnation of the money trust came from disparate groups that included reformers in statehouses and city halls, socialists in industrial cities, strikebound workers from coast to coast, working-class feminists and anti-war activists. Financial interests were blamed for turning the whole country into a closely held system of $ nancial pillage and labor exploitation while practicing imperial adventuring abroad.

In response, the New Deal was launched, and President Franklin D. Roosevelt announced his determination to unseat "economic royalists" who were growing

In recent years, protest by ordinary people against the culture of wealth accumulation and the powerful $ nancial institutions Marx referred to as "the Vatican of capitalism" had largely died o# . We had grown fearful of using nasty phrases like "class warfare," "plutocracy," "robber baron" and "ruling class" to identify the sources of economic exploitation and oppression.

Now that spirit of protest is back, and just in time. Never before has "the Vatican of capitalism" captured quite so perfectly the speci$ c nature of the oligarchy that has run the country for a generation and has now run it into the ground.

At a march I recently attended, the signs spoke to a reemerging willingness to combat the economic divide. "! e Middle Class is Too Big To Fail," one proclaimed. "Eat the Rich, Feed the Poor," read another. During the march, a pervasive chant ,"We are the 99 Percent," resoundingly reminded the Wall Street titans just how isolated and vulnerable they might become.

It would be foolish to predict how lasting this Occupy Wall Street moment will be and just where, if anywhere, it's heading. Some observers have worried the movement is too di# use, that it doesn't have a clear-cut set of demands and that its anger is unfocused. It is far too soon to conclude that, with the protests on Wall Street, our pitiful age of acquiescence has ended.

Still, it would be equally foolish to dismiss the powerful American tradition the demonstrators of this moment have tapped into. In the past, Wall Street has functioned as an icon of revulsion, inciting anger, stoking up energies and summoning visions of a new world that might save the New World.

It could play that role again today. In 1932, three years into the Depression, most Americans were more demoralized than mobilized. A few years later, all that had changed and the political class had to scurry to keep up. Occupy Wall Street may indeed prove the opening act in an unfolding drama of renewed resistance to and rebellion against "the Vatican of capitalism."

Wall Street protests: Continuing a long American tradition

GUEST COLUMN

STEVE FRASERMcClatchy-Tribune

French pop act, M83 captures its entire essence with the mere title of its new album, “Hurry Up, We’re Dreaming.” Since its 2001 self-titled debut, the group spent the last decade mixing lush electronic rhythms, layered synthesizers and haunting harmonies into a dreamlike soundscape for listeners.

Anthony Gonzalez is the mastermind behind M83. Although the act was originally introduced as a duo, Gonzalez parted ways with founding member Nicolas Fromageau a! er the release of their sophomore album, 2003’s “Dead Cities, Red Seas & Lost Ghost.”

Since then Gonzalez has collaborated with a slew of studio musicians but now primarily records with his brother Yann

Gonzalez, vocalist/keyboardist, Morgan Kibby, guitarist/bassist Pierre-Marie Maulini and drummer Loïc Maurin.

Here on the ninth studio album the group’s trippy, electronic-in" uenced psychedelia is richer, fuller and vivid as ever. # e double-disc record is a sonic time capsule, blending together sounds of 70’s progressive rock, 80’s New Wave pop and 90’s shoegazer alternative rock. If this all sounds a bit pretentious that’s because it is. Nothing about Gonzalez is subtle, which is evident by making the album’s intro the longest track on the record.

# e album’s lead single, “Midnight City,” sounds like the Miami Vice soundtrack $ ltered through the grubby $ ngers of bohemian Brooklyn hipsters. # e song’s pulsating rhythm and MGMT style harmonies explode into a chorus that refuses to let its listeners sit still.

“Reunion” is a surreal, bouncing track with Gonzalez’ clashing yelps and harmonies atop miles of keyboards, fuzzy guitars and drum machines. # e track is a standout amongst the album, which gets too comfortable with itself and begins to meld into a pile of similar sounds.

# e emotionally heavy “Wait” and preschool confessional “Raconte-moi une historie” separate themselves from the pack, but the remainder of the album is carried by the overall daydream sonic atmosphere.

# ough M83 has the sound, potential and talent to be as big as its contemporaries Air, Foster # e People or MGMT the group lacks the pop sensibility for its “Pumped Up Kicks” or “Kids” style breakout hit. Which is probably exactly how Gonzalez wants it.

When all else fails, consistency won’t.

R&B singer Joe didn’t gain any more fans than he already had with his ninth studio album “) e Good, the Bad and the Sexy." He did, however, release an album that kept them satis* ed with the same slow beats, smooth melodies and so+ vocals the singer has been known for since the mid-1990s.

Almost every song on the 11-track album paints a romantic picture of champagne, rose petals and dim lights to set up an intimate night with a lover. While this is the genre’s default style, today’s mainstream R&B relies a little more on featured artists and slightly ‘hip-hoppier’ beats. Because of this, listeners can’t help but feel like they’re back in the early 2000s when solo albums and no guest artists were the way to go.

) e album’s lyrics are a bit lacking, even slightly juvenile, but the singer makes up for that with purely his voice. Tracks such as “Dear Joe” and “Tonight” could have been written by a stranger o, the street, but no one could make them sound as warm and tender as he.

) e Georgia crooner won’t put another single on the top of any Billboard chart like he did with his 2000 album “My Name is Joe,” which is his most successful to date, but he did create some keepers.

) e song “Slow Kisses” is one of about three on the album that talk about something other than romance. ) e simple fact that it doesn’t sound like the rest of the album makes it memorable in itself.

If Joe really wanted to make a mark in contemporary R&B, he would have spiced his album up with at least one fast track. Listening to 11 mid- to slow-tempo songs can become tiresome without some kind of pickup song to wake people back up.

) e closest he comes to rustling listeners’ feathers is his

song “Losing,” which lays down a catchy beat and intriguing vocal - uctuations while he expresses the hopelessness of a relationship that only leaves him broken and angry.

) ere’s nothing memorable about the album, and maybe two or three songs are worth hearing more than once. ) ough the album adheres to typical R&B style, today’s listeners might overlook what little replay value it has due to its musical monotony. But that’s not to say the album isn’t worth checking out.

The album is a good one to fall asleep to, providing that hasn’t already happened midway through.

It seems Lance Berkman was destined to play in the 2011 World Series.

Once his time was up with the New York Yankees at the end of the 2010 season, Berkman looked to the west to arouse his career a! er he struggled to rebound from his ailing knees.

He narrowed his decision to two teams: the Texas Rangers and the St. Louis Cardinals.

He chose St. Louis because he thought he would have a better chance of getting back to a World Series, but as it turns out, he might have ended up there either way.

Perhaps it was his performance that got the Cardinals to this point of the season. Berkman " nished the regular season with a .301 batting average, 94 RBIs, 90 runs and 31 home runs.

As for the rest of the team and the Series, it could be expected to be an o# ensive showdown.

Cardinals " rst baseman Albert Pujols has hit .419 throughout the postseason, with third baseman David Freese hitting 4.25 and le! -" elder Matt Holliday hitting .375.

$ e Rangers’ o# ense is led by right-" elder David Murphy with a

.391 batting average, catcher Mike Napoli with a .316 average and le! -" elder Josh Hamilton hitting .2933 throughout the postseason.

$ rough the Division Series to the Championship Series, both teams’ hitters continued to warm up the further they got into October. Texas averaged four runs per game in the Division Series while the Cardinals averaged 3.8. $ is was a Cardinals lineup against the Philadelphia Phillies, perhaps one of the best pitching sta# s in baseball.

In the Championship Series against the Detroit Tigers, the Rangers bumped up to an average of 6.5 runs per game, while the Cardinals did the same with their average of 7.2 against the Milwaukee Brewers’ pitchers.

Before the start of the postseason, the starting pitchers

for both teams have been shaky at best. $ e top four starters for the Cardinals have a combined 5.68 ERA in the postseason, while the Rangers’ top four have a 5.35 ERA.

$ e most promising feature these two teams have is their bullpen. Of the pitchers who have made at least three appearances, the Cardinals have a 2.39 ERA with a 1.54 batting average against in 42 innings, while the Rangers have a 5.84 ERA with a .244 batting average against in 39.2 innings pitched.

What is even more impressive about the Rangers’ bullpen is what the numbers look like without right-handed reliever Koji Uehara, who is the outlier with his 33.75 ERA and .556 batting average against in his 1.1 innings pitched.

Without Uehara, the Rangers bullpen posted a 1.18 ERA and .192 batting average against.

As the Rangers and Cardinals closely match up all through the board, both team’s closers have also had similar success this postseason. Texas’ closer Ne! ali Feliz has had four saves in four opportunities and has a 1.17 ERA in his 7.2 innings pitched. He has allowed only one earned run on three hits, with four walks and " ve strikeouts.

The Cardinals’ Jason Motte has been even more savvy with his non-existent 0.00 ERA and .040 batting average against in his 8.0 innings pitched.

With the way these two teams match up, nothing less than interesting should be expected for this series.

Though baseball is a game of numbers, everybody knows that anything can happen in October.

CORY DOWNERDaily Egyptian

LAKE FOREST — Chicago Bears quarterback Jay Cutler wasn’t apologizing or expressing any regret for shouting a profanity directed at o# ensive coordinator Mike Martz.

Instead, he brushed it o# as nothing major.

“$ ings happen. You guys were " ghting in the hallways last week,” Cutler said Wednesday, referring to an argument between two reporters. “I’m not going to make a big deal of this. It’s not a big deal. We’re all in the same team in this building. We’re going to try and win football games.”

A TV camera caught Cutler shaking his head late in the " rst half a! er taking a play call through his headset during Sunday’s 39-10 victory over the Minnesota Vikings. Moments later, a microphone caught him apparently telling quarterbacks coach Shane Day to relay a message to Martz in the booth that was not exactly rated PG.

Asked if he regretted it, Cutler responded, “No.”

Martz said he knew nothing about the outburst or the clip, saying, “Run that by me again?”

Told what happened, Martz laughed and said, “He’s directing it at who?”

“Well, if it was at me, that’s probably the nicest thing that a player’s said to me during the game,” he said. “No, you’ve got to understand during the course of a game a lot of things get said. It’s a very strong, very competitive environment. $ at stu# , that’s not an issue, really. $ at’s part of the deal. But during games, a lot of things get said — trust me — by everybody. So that’s not an issue.”

$ e Bears (3-3) are preparing for this weekend’s game in London against Tampa Bay (4-2). It’s been a long year already for Chicago, with a stagnant o# ense and porous defense at times. And now this.

$ e Bears were leading 23-3 in

the closing minute of the " rst half when Cutler went o# , apparently upset about a third-and-7 call at the Vikings 32. Matt Forte took a hando# and got hit for a 1-yard loss, leading to a " eld goal by Robbie Gould.

$ at Cutler vented in such a lopsided game seemed unusual and raised suspicions that there might be some deeper issues. Earlier in the week, he had called for changes while reiterating that it's not easy to maintain faith in Martz's o# ense when he's constantly being pounded by the defense.

No quarterback has taken a bigger beating the past two years than he has under Martz. $ e 71

sacks he's absorbed during that span by far are tops in the NFL, although he no longer leads the league this season. $ at honor goes to the Rams’ Sam Bradford with 21, two more than Cutler.

He was sacked just once in two of the past three games against Carolina and Minnesota, although he was constantly on the run while being taken down three times in a loss at Detroit in between. He got the ball out of his hands quicker against the Vikings, and the blockers held their ground against Jared Allen.

As for the idea that there are lingering issues with Martz, Cutler shook his head no.

WASHINGTON — U.S. senators and health o- cials are taking on a baseball tradition older than the World Series itself: chewing tobacco on the diamond.

With the Series set to begin Wednesday between the St. Louis Cardinals and Texas Rangers — a team that started life as the Washington Senators 50 years ago — the senators, along with health o- cials from the teams’ cities, want the players union to agree to a ban on chewing tobacco at games and on camera. $ ey made the pleas in separate letters, obtained Tuesday by $ e Associated Press.

“When players use smokeless tobacco, they endanger not only their own health, but also the health of millions of children who follow their example,” the senators wrote to union head Michael Weiner. $ e letter was signed by Dick Durbin of Illinois, the No. 2 Democrat in the Senate, and fellow Democrats Frank Lautenberg of New Jersey, Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut and Senate Health Committee Chairman Tom Harkin of Iowa.

$ e senators noted that millions of people will tune in to watch the World Series, including children.

“Unfortunately, as these young fans root for their favorite team and players, they also will watch their on-" eld heroes use smokeless tobacco products,” they wrote. Smokeless tobacco includes chewing tobacco and dip.

“It’s going to be kind of hard to ban that,” Texas Rangers pitcher Matt Harrison said. “$ ey probably would have a big " ght on their hands for that. ... $ ey can hide it a little bit better, I guess — not be doing it in the dugout and showing it where kids can watch and stu# . But I think it’s kind of like your own freedom. If that’s what you want to do, then you do it.”

With baseball’s current collective bargaining agreement expiring in December, the senators, some government o- cials and public health groups want the players to agree to a tobacco ban in the next contract. A coalition including the Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids, the American Academy of Pediatrics, the American Cancer Society and the American Medical Association has been pushing for

one since last year.“Such an agreement would

protect the health of players and be a great gi! to your young fans,” the senators wrote. Durbin also sent copies of the letter to the player representatives for his home state teams, the Chicago White Sox and Chicago Cubs, as well as the representative for the Cardinals, a team that draws Illinois fans from across the river in Missouri.

Commissioner Bud Selig endorsed the ban in March, but the players union hasn't committed to one.

Weiner said in June that a “sincere e# ort” will be made to address the issue. Union spokesman Greg Bouris said Tuesday that since the issue is subject to collective bargaining which is currently taking place, it would be inappropriate to comment.

In Senate speech Tuesday, Durbin said, “Let’s not let the health and safety of young baseball fans across America be a bargaining chip between the major league players and the owners. Let’s win one for the kids across America.”

$ e " rst World Series took place in 1903, but chewing tobacco

in the sport dates well back into the previous century, when the habit was a popular pastime in American culture, not just on baseball diamonds. Players used tobacco juice to so! en gloves, keep their mouths wet on dusty " elds and doctor baseballs (the juice was part of the spitballer’s arsenal until baseball banned the spitter in 1920).

Some baseball players interviewed by $ e Associated Press last month were receptive to the idea, but others viewed a ban as an infringement on their freedom. Baseball banned smokeless tobacco in the non-unionized minor leagues in the 1990s, and recent call-ups from the minors spoke of “Dip Police” who would come through clubhouses and cite players if they saw tobacco at their lockers, subjecting violators to " nes.

$ e health o- cials from St. Louis and Arlington, Texas, asked that players in the World Series voluntarily abstain from using tobacco, in addition to calling for a permanent ban.

“The use of tobacco by big league ballplayers at a single World Series game provides millions of dollars worth of free

television advertising for an addictive and deadly product,” wrote Dr. Cynthia Simmons, the public health authority for Arlington, Texas, and Pamela Walker, the St. Louis interim health director. They said that with tobacco companies banned from advertising on TV, they “literally could not buy the ads that are effectively created by celebrity ballplayers using tobacco at games.”

The federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says smokeless tobacco can cause cancer, oral health problems and nicotine addiction, and stresses it is not a safe alternative to smoking. Despite the risks, the CDC's most recent survey found that in 2009, 15 percent of high school boys used smokeless tobacco — a more than one-third increase over 2003, when 11 percent did.

Prior to last year’s World Series between the Rangers and San Francisco Giants, Rep. Frank Pallone, D-N.J., called on the teams to tell their players not to use tobacco on the field or in the dugout.

Lt. Gov. Sheila Simon spoke about education reform at Lawson Hall Wednesday night.

Simon said one area of focus for education reform is community colleges. She said she wants to increase the amount of students who complete their degrees, whether it be earning a certificate or an associate degree.

Simon said as of Oct. 6 she has visited all 48 community colleges in the state to discuss this goal.

“You really have to know more about community colleges and be a more visible presence at them,” Simon said. “Each of them has a niche. Each has a way they fit into the community.”

She said one of the biggest issues colleges face is about half of students who enter them aren’t prepared for college

level math and English classes.

“We need to start blurring the lines between high school and college,” Simon said.

She said smaller schools are implementing college level math and English earlier. She said those schools don’t have a very broad curriculum, so they try to work with community colleges so their students will take college credit courses earlier.

Simon said she also wants to focus on ways to direct tax dollars more efficiently to the classrooms. She said she believes one way this could be done is to lower property taxes and raise income taxes so the school funding can be distributed more evenly.

The Southern Illinois Reading Council and the College of Education and Human Services hosted the speech.

Full ! rottle and Red Bull was students’ tendency to abuse them not only by consuming too many, but also by mixing them with alcohol, masking symptoms of intoxication. UNH President Mark Huddleston repealed the decision the same night because he said there was not a clear rationale to eliminate energy drinks as an option for students.

Joshua Harper, a senior from Ashton studying business, said he typically consumes four NOS energy drinks per week. He said he consumes energy drinks before meetings or study sessions to stay alert.

! e National College Health Assessment Executive Summary reported in fall 2010, 25.4 percent of students reported stress was the top reason they did not meet their highest academic potential. ! e second highest reported cause of academic impediment was when 17.8 percent of students said they had di" culty sleeping. ! e survey was a national research survey of 18 million college students.

SIUC Department of Public Safety o" cers told Occupy Carbondale protesters to remove their tents at 6:30 a.m. Wednesday from the lawn in front of Quigley Hall.

Following tent removal, numerous protesters tied down a large tarp over the Buckminster Fuller Dome and relocated beneath it for shelter from the rain. Katy Wyant, of Makanda, said campus police returned to the site to tell the group to remove the tarp from the dome.

“Some of us got up on top of the dome to hold the tarp and a bunch of us lied around the inside,” Wyant said. “We held onto it with our bodies and (campus police) began cutting it into pieces while we were holding it … Now all we have

le# are shards of some of these things. We all witnessed the police vandalizing our private property.”

Rod Sievers, university spokesman, said Occupy Carbondale is allowed to protest but not allowed to camp out on campus.

“No one is allowed to camp on campus,” Sievers said. “! e homeless are not allowed.”

SIUC’s Demonstration Policies and Procedures, as posted on its website, does not speci$ cally prohibit tents or other forms of shelter during a protest or demonstration.

Sievers said administrators reached an agreement with the group around 4:30 p.m. Wednesday that gave it permission to use two pop-up canopies only if there is rain.

Sievers said the university gave the

group permission earlier this week to protest on campus 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Now, students who sleep overnight would be suspended and non-students would be immediately arrested.

He said the agreement is between university administration and Occupy Carbondale and would not be precedent for future protests.

Occupy Carbondale is one of many branches of Occupy Wall Street, a movement that started in New York City when people began to protest in the $ nancial district Sept. 17. Supporters of Carbondale’s group have said they want to bring democracy to southern Illinois.

Kyle Cheesewright, a graduate student in speech communication from Durango, Colo., and member of Graduate Assistants United, said the tents provided shelter from weather.

With midterms wrapping up and $ nals being six weeks away, some students turn to energy supplements to keep them awake while they study for tests late at night.

Some of these supplements include co% ee, ca% einated beverages, ca% eine pills and Adderall to stay alert and awake while studying. Adderall, Ritalin and other prescription drugs have become popular among college students and young professionals who use them to improve performance according to an article in TIME magazine. TIME reported the drugs are normally prescribed to treat ADHD but healthy students use them to improve focus, concentration and memory.

Jason Gillman, director of the Wellness Center, said some believe energy drinks actually provide energy, but in reality they just stimulate the body’s functions.

Protesters expressed concerns when officers and maintenance workers discussed disassembling the dome to prevent them from using it as an alternative shelter.

The University of New Hampshire attempted Oct. 1 to ban the sale of energy drinks on campus because of associated health effects. Many students use energy supplements such as caffeine pills, energy drinks and Adderall to help stay awake

while cramming for tests during midterms and finals. Although students may believe these supplements give them more energy, they actually just stimulate the body and increase heart rate, said Jason Gillman, director of the Wellness Center.

Lt. Gov. Simon:‘not the end’ ofeducation reform discussion

! e SIU women’s tennis team is set to " nish its fall schedule with the Intercollegiate Tennis Association Regional Tournament, taking on a mixture of conference foes and regional powerhouses.

The Salukis entered the tournament on a high note as they won Sunday’s Fall Classic at home. They start today in Tulsa, Okla., as the University of Tulsa hosts the regional tournament that runs through Monday.

Coach Audra Nothwehr said she is pleased to see how her team approached practice this week a# er they had limited time to prepare for the " nal fall tournament.

“We’ve been working on some consistency drills and depth drills, and we’re just trying to stay positive, be focused, and take it to them,” Nothwehr said. “Our goal is to get in the main draw and get some wins, and try and get as far as we can.”

Consistency and focus are two

things that sophomore Anita Lee said she also plans to bring to the tournament. A# er her battle to win her " nal match at the Fall Classic, Lee said she was determined not to lose.

“I kept telling myself I could do it, and this was my chance to get it,” Lee said. “If I didn’t fight hard now, I might not ever get that chance again.”

Lee and junior Anastacia Simons both went 2-0 in singles matches for the Salukis, but Lee said she has more to improve on for a better chance of success.

“I can work on getting my " rst serve in — that is something that I can make stronger,” Lee said.

Regionals present a di$ erent challenge than the conference Fall Classic for the Salukis, but everyone except sophomore Korey Love has been to regionals before. With the experience the team has, Nothwehr said the tournament o$ ers the Salukis the ability to gauge their team against bigger Division I schools.

“! is is a tournament where you can play regionally ranked players and nationally ranked players,” Nothwehr said. “I think we have a shot at getting our players ranked.”

One of the top ranked singles players at regionals will be sophomore Natallia Pintusava from University of Minnesota. Pintusava was ranked 61st in the nation in the preseason polls.

To have a chance against some of the nation’s top players, Love said she believes the key is to stick to the basics.

“We really just want to be aggressive and keep it simple, to serve and volley and keep our volleys in the court,” Love said.

Other top teams at regionals will be the University of Oklahoma and the University of Tulsa, but Lee said having to battle through her singles matches at the Fall Classic will help future performances.

“! is tournament is going to be really tough,” Lee said. “I played pretty well, and fought really hard in my " nal match, so I have to keep " ghting this weekend.”

Junior Jennifer Dien returns a serve Wednesday during SIU women’s tennis practice at the Sports Blast. The team begins the Intercollegiate Tennis Association Regional Tournament, a five-day competition, today in Tulsa, Okla.
