Oct. 6 Intoxicated Driver (Lot 12) - An officer observed a suspicious car and ac-tivated his emergency lights. The officer spoke with the driver who said his friend had too much to drink, and she was driv-ing her home. The passenger was vomit-ing outside the door. The officer called for emergency rescue who took the pas-senger to Mayo Clinic. The officer did not observe any intoxicated symptoms in the driver but conducted a breath test since she was under 21. The driver was above the legal driving limit and had to surren-der her license. The driver was issued a notice of suspension and then released.

Oct. 7 Intoxicated Persons (Lot 100) - An officer met with a cab driver who had two subjects in the back seat of her cab. The subjects were passed out, and one appeared to have vomited.

who was a UNF student, was referred to Student Conduct.

Oct. 11 Intoxicated Driver (Alumni Drive) - An officer conducted a traffic stop af-ter observing suspicious behavior. The officer observed the driver’s glassy eyes and smelled alcohol. The officer con-ducted a field sobriety test but did not notice any deficiencies. The officer then conducted a breath test, and the sub-ject was past the legal limit.

subject was issued a Notice to Appear for drug paraphernalia.

Oct. 11 Burglary (Fine Arts Garage) - An officer met with an employee who said she was conducting her round and no-ticed a shattered car window.

Awarded the 2010 Pacemaker Awardby the Associated Collegiate Press.

Awarded second place for Best College Newspaper in 2007 Better College Newspaper Contest by the Florida College Press Assocation.

The Spinnaker received a letter Oct. 16 that included one 8x11 sheet of paper titled: “Reasons to Distrust Most Republicans.”

The 25-item list doesn’t bear repeating, but it does shed light on a serious issue surrounding this election: blame.

It’s not a new problem — Republicans and Democrats have been saddling one another with faults since the parties emerged. But it becomes especially aggres-sive before presidential elections.

If you’re not a Republican, you prob-ably have some friends, family members, coworkers or neighbors who are. Unless you’re, say, of the same mind as the writer of that letter we received.

Whether you’re a Democrat, Republican, independent or unaffiliated, you have your own list of reasons — it describes why you make certain decisions that suit your lifestyle. Lately, if that list doesn’t match someone else’s, it makes them utterly, re-pulsively wrong.

The Daily Show aired an episode Sept. 19 that showcased just how obliviously at odds people are. Those interviewed, repub-licans and democrats, insisted that it is time to stop drawing lines between parties and start reaching over them for a hand-shake. But they simultaneously asserted any lack of cooperative progress was the other party’s fault.

Several of those interviewed on The Daily Show said this is the harshest, most negative campaign they’ve seen. The New York Times and The Washington Post have stories and statistics trying to quantify just how true that is.

It isn’t only the candidates' campaigns that have grown ugly. Citizens, too, are slip-ping into the fray.

Of the major issues being debated this election season, many of them are quali-tative, including abortion and gay mar-riage. People’s views of those are deeply intertwined with their values or religious

beliefs. That’s when these disagreements get especially ugly. That’s when people stop practicing the harmony they preach in fa-vor of pointing their fingers.

Even the issues over numbers — how to stimulate the economy, what to do about healthcare — become qualitative measures of the candidates. See Romney's comment about the 47 percent, for instance.

Leave the accusations and outcries to the politicians for the last few weeks be-fore this election. Stick to your beliefs, absolutely. Explain your point of view to anyone willing to listen, without a doubt. But by all means, have a conversation, not a heated argument.

If people showed a penchant for calm, well-reasoned debate, perhaps that would cut back on the ominous, incendiary com-mercials flooding our airwaves. Remember, it’s you the candidates are trying to please — be careful of the message you send.

What do you want to be when you grow up? Besides Batman.

The odds are that you probably have a general field in mind, such as business, teaching or the circus, but a specific job or company might be more difficult to pinpoint.

Perhaps you’ve heard the word “intern-ship” tossed around before — maybe an ad-viser, fellow students or your parents have been riding you about it. Listen to these people, internships are very valuable. They allow you to try out a job while you’re still in school and increase your chances of getting a jump on your career.

According to Webster’s Dictionary, the word “intern” refers to an advanced stu-dent or graduate in a professional field gaining supervised practical experience. You might be asking yourself questions such as:

• CanIplayinaprofessionalfield?• Whowillbesupervisingme?• Whatis“practicalexperience,”anyway?• WheredoIlooktofindtheseanswers?

As my Grandee always says, “Are you looking to look? Or looking to find?” Either way, UNF can answer these questions and help you.

Believe it or not, there’s more to col-lege than social activities. Though, you

should still find yourself some friends with benefits.

Get familiar with Career Services. They are located in Founders Hall, Bldg. 2, and their hours are 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. They can link you to a wide variety of career op-portunities and internships in businesses, nonprofit agencies, government agencies, and in advertising, public relations and human services organizations. If you are a business major, however, you should go to the Career Management Center located in Bldg. 42, Suite 2021.

If you still think investigating an intern-ship may not be worth the effort, think about this: Kelly Hunter, a UNF gradu-ate, worked as an intern for a government agency that granted her a top security clearance. After graduation, her security clearance helped her secure a full-time po-sition with a top aerospace company that starts new hires at around $60,000 - $75,000 annually. Not to mention, her job entails travelling around the world — expenses paid for by the organization.

Whether you wish to be the top chef at a famous restaurant or an expert in the

field of medicine, internships are a way to help you achieve these goals. This is another advantage of attending college. Organizations invite students in with the hope that one day a mutual, profit-able affiliation will develop. Now, I don’t know about you, but that is the kind of relationship I would have no problem committing to.

Most of your search will take place in Career Wings, where there is a job/intern-ship-posting system exclusively available for UNF students and graduates. You can browse and apply for these postings and upload your resume.

If your resume hasn’t been updated since you got that waiter or cashier job in high school, fear not. Your friends at Career Services or the Career Management Center can help you get your resume up-to-date, out the door and into the right hands.

Use your resources and be proactive in your search. Let UNF help you figure out what to do when you finally venture out of the Osprey’s nest.

After all, not everyone can be Batman.

The Private Eye

Writers of America awarded Dr. Michael Wiley, a UNF English professor, the Shamus Award for Best Hardcover P.I. Novel for his mys-tery novel A Bad Night’s Sleep.

The award was presented at the annual Bouchercon con-ference Oct. 5. The conference assembled national and international mystery writ-ers and readers in Cleveland Oct. 4-7.

Wiley said books in the private investi-gation mystery genre feature detectives solving difficult cases.

Wiley, who is teaching a detective fic-tion class this semester, said this recogni-tion was a huge surprise and a great honor for him.

His passion for mysteries was evident at a young age.

“I was that 7-year-old reading ‘Blood and Guts’ under my bed cover when I was sup-posed to be sleeping,” he said.

This isn’t the first time the Private Eye Writers of America have acknowledged Wiley’s fiction.

In 2008, the group nominated his novel The Last Striptease for the Best First P.I. Novel Shamus Award.

The most recent award comes with praise from Wiley’s colleagues.

“Certainly any award that is given

increases not only the respect we have for the individual faculty member but cer-tainly makes us all proud to be members of the same department,” said Dr. Jeanette Berger, a UNF English professor.

A Bad Night’s Sleep is Wiley’s third mys-tery novel, following The Bad Kitty Lounge and The Last Striptease. He has also written two academic books, Romantic Geography and Romantic Migrations.

The UNF Archaeology Lab received

a $43,000 State of Florida Historic Preservation Grant to conduct a survey to locate artifacts of the lost French fort, Fort Caroline.

Dr. Keith Ashley, UNF’s coordinator of archaeological research and a professor of sociology and anthropology, is spearhead-ing the survey.

There were 70 projects in the running for the grant. Ashley said UNF’s project was chosen because it ranked eighth out of those 70.

Ashley said the grant, intended to last until July 1, 2013, will also be used to fund several other activities beneficial to the research.

While some of the funds will be used for equipment, Ashley said the bulk of the money is going toward paying the students and alumni who work on the survey.

Other students receive class credit for their work, as well as experience in field and lab work.

Ashley said another portion of the funds will be used to send Michael Francis, a for-mer UNF professor and one of the leading

experts in the history of Spanish colo-nialism in Florida, to Washington D.C. to research French and Spanish documents that could be useful to the survey.

Although no specific evidence of the fort has been revealed in these early days of the project, Ashley said many artifacts pre-dating the fort have already been found, which help provide background history of the area.

The Intercultural Center

for PEACE added glass doors to the first floor of the Student Union East building. The changes were made during the first week of October.

Karmele Oupa Seane, the director of the ICP, said the center paid for the glass doors and their installation, totaling $22,678, to add more space for its new offices which are now behind those doors.

David Crabtree, the director of the Student Union, said Student Affairs al-located the additional office space to the center because it has begun to oversee the African American Student Union and has been experiencing growth.

Crabtree said the ICP was originally located on the second floor of the build-ing but was moved downstairs to a space that had been largely undeveloped and underutilized.

Seane said the ICP added the doors to enclose the office and give UNF minority students an area to relax and learn about

different cultural backgrounds. He said the office welcomes all UNF students, de-spite the ICP’s focus on minorities.

Crabtree said carpeting and new furni-ture will soon be added to the space.

Seane said the added office space allows the center to further pursue its goal of pro-moting cultural education at UNF.

Results of a poll conducted by approxi-

mately 180 UNF students Oct. 1-9 indicate a slender lead for President Obama in Florida: 49 percent to 45 percent.

The students dialed roughly 30,000 numbers which were randomly generated through the computer-assisted telephone interviewing stations at the UNF polling labs. On average, students conducted four to five surveys during each four-hour ses-sion, according to the news release. The survey has a 3.49 percent margin of error.

The poll results also indicated Obama’s overwhelming popularity among blacks, with whom he has a 96 percent to 3 percent lead over Mitt Romney. Obama is also pop-ular in the Latino demographic, leading Romney by 59 percent to 33 percent.

Michael Binder, a UNF political science assistant professor, said with such a small gap, Florida will be vital if Romney is go-ing to win the election.

Matthew Corrigan, a UNF professor and chair of the political science department, said surveys have been conducted in the lab for the past eight or nine years. He said they have proven to be efficient in teaching students how to interact with the public, collect data and measure public opinion.

Binder said he will consider con-ducting a policy-oriented survey after the elections.

STAFF REPORTER

If a friend or significant other asked you

to give them access to your Facebook, email or other similar account, would you?

As our society moves into the thick of the digital realm, the trend of sharing account passwords with multiple people is becoming a common occurrence.

To see just how commonplace this trend is, the Spinnaker conducted an informal survey of 160 UNF students.

Of the students surveyed, 86 said they have shared passwords with friends and 74 said they have shared passwords with their significant other.

UNF student Aaron John Plotz said when a friend found out his Facebook password he logged into his account and changed his gender to female, posted a profane status up-date, and harassed his friends as a prank.

In a relationship, giving access to Facebook, email and other social network-ing accounts with one another can be a gesture of trust. But, things can get ugly when its a scorned ex that has access to your accounts.

Britni Rains, an english freshman, said that when she broke up with a boyfriend he retaliated when logging into her Facebook account. After going through her messages, he proceeded to message other people Rains had talked to online.

Rains was one of several to experi-ence this sort of situation after a breakup. Another student, Laura Matejka, said an ex-boyfriend went into her account and began posting and harassing her friends.

Tristan Bett, a psychology junior, said that a former girlfriend became paranoid and demanded his account passwords and access to his phone.

“She’d always be like, ‘You’re definitely talking to someone on the side.’ So she’d

want to check my phone or Facebook, but the phone was off limits,” he said.

Hell hath no fury like a scorned lover, as the saying more or less goes, but sharing passwords can get you into far more serious trouble than merely blemishing your care-fully constructed, social networking image.

Jeff Durfee, director of information se-curity at UNF, said as the number of people who know your password grows, so does the propensity that your account will be ac-cessed. That friend could easily go into your account and make changes without you ever knowing, he said.

Though most people would not consider a friend accessing their account hacking,

sharing passwords can open the account up to being compromised by someone outside of your group of friends. This Invites the danger of someone stealing valuable infor-mation such as social security numbers and credit card information, or getting viruses on your computer.

UNF student Patrick Rizzo said he was the victim of a series of virus attacks after he gave some friends the password to use his computer.

After one friend had accessed his com-puter, Rizzo said “I was doing an essay, was done with it, but didn’t save and lost every-thing because of a virus crash, and [now] I have to rewrite all of it.”

Information security offers an abun-dance of tips for protecting and maintain-ing password security.

Durfee recommends students use differ-ent passwords for each account, rather than just using the same one every time a pass-word must be created.

“Don’t use the same password for Facebook, Twitter, Gmail, UNF email, etc., because if you do that, and somebody gets access to one of those, now they have ac-cess to all of those,” Durfee said. A secu-rity breach could include a hacker getting access to your account information on Twitter if a vulnerability on the website was discovered. From there, a hacker could uncover information linking back to all your other accounts.

“We recommend, though it is a little in-convenient, using different passwords, espe-cially for your high-value accounts like your online banking or what you consider to be very personal information,” Durfee said.

Keeping track of multiple passwords for any number of accounts may be overwhelm-ing and seem like a daunting task, but Durfee said there are many kinds of software or hardware for managing passwords.

Students looking to manage passwords should look into software such as KeePass which keeps all of your passwords on en-crypted software via your computer’s hard drive. Sites such as MyLok+ offer an en-crypted USB device similar to a thumb drive that stores and protects your passwords.

In any case, you might want to think twice before giving your friend access to password-protected accounts. You may be giving away more than you think.

Sharing a password with someone can be an issue of both privacy and security

Passwords: to share or not to share?

OTV MOVIE CRITIC

Welcoming the fall season with open arms

is the auto-tuned, hilarious love letter to col-legiate a cappella, Pitch Perfect.

In essence, imagine Glee without the hall-way drama, add a splash of the gut-busting pro-girl comedy that made Bridesmaids a smash, all poured over the sugary rim of Top 40 mashups.

Doing what Bring It On did for cheerlead-ing, Pitch Perfect is a wild, fun and funny ride through the colorful world of a cappella competition.

Set in the fictitious Barden University, this movie tells the story of rebellious, as-piring music producer, Beca. Played acerbi-cally by Anna Kendrick, Beca is pressured into joining the Bellas, a once-elite a capella group. Captaining the Bellas are Anna Camp as the uptight Aubrey and Brittany Snow as the sweet-hearted redhead, Chloe. The fresh crop of performers auditioning are hardly the clean-cut, wannabe Rockettes the Bellas are known for having, however. Among them is Bridesmaids star Rebel Wilson, who owns the screen with “ordinary-girl” charm and ready wit as Fat Amy.

The Bellas vocal rivals, the Treblemakers, are a fun, frenzied cross between Broadway stars and Backstreet Boys. Among them are actual Broadway stars like baby-faced Skylar Astin, who charms us all as the

cinephile with a golden voice, Jesse. Where there’s music, dance and hormones, there’s bound to be a show. That’s what Pitch Perfect promises and what it delivers.

Throughout the course of this mostly-music bundle of fun, Pitch Perfect plays with drama and occasional moments of snappy writing. These moments are fleeting, as it’s soon off to another scene stuffed with flashy choreography and musical mashups.

Pitch Perfect succeeds because it doesn’t want to take itself too seriously. There are sticky, slow moments, but like the summer’s heavily musical Rock of Ages, they are very few and are used as springboards for more pops of sass and color. Music is the focus in this film and that is something it does very, very well.

The film’s dramatic turns may be super-ficial and its ending anti-climactic, but that doesn’t stop this film from being a delightful, colorful musical break from heavy stories and austere Oscar-grabbers. Pitch Perfect is the film to go for when you want flair, sass and outrageously fun music mashups. Give it a go for a pick-me-up; it’ll lift your spirits in no time!

Question 1: do you think the Falcons are the favorites in the NFc?

The Falcons are playing great football right now and they have a potential league MVP in Matt Ryan. I’ll take the Falcons as the favorite, for now.

The Falcons aren’t running the ball. Mi-chael Turner is averaging below 50 yards a game and hasn’t been given many carries. They’re going to have to remember that running the ball finishes the game in this pass-happy NFL. But you’d have to say, cur-rently they’re the best because no one has beaten them.

San Francisco is still the team to beat. They’ve had some tough losses but I think they are the most complete team and will show that in the playoffs.

The Falcons are clearly the team to beat. Matt Ryan has complete control of the of-fense and they haven’t even used Michael Turner to his full capability. If the defense continues to play well, the Falcons will not only be the favorites in the NFC, but for the Super Bowl as well.

I’m not sure I would have put Florida ahead of Oregon, but I can definitely see the argument. Other than that I don’t have any serious issues with the first BCS rankings.

I have a problem with the Lizards ranked number two. They struggled putting Van-dy away. We’ll see what they do against Spurrier’s Gamecocks.

No, but they won’t be the same later in the year. I believe Florida and Notre Dame will be removed from the conversation at season’s end, but they deserve their rank-ings as of now.

The Gators and Oregon State are both overrated. Each team will probably lose two more games before the season is over. I predict Oregon and Alabama playing for the National Title.

Question 2: the first Bcs standings of the year came out this week. do you have any problems with the rankings as they stand?

I have to agree with Clayton; I want to see a Yankees and Cardinals matchup. I don’t think it’s likely, but it would make for a great World Series.

The best match would be the Yankees against the Giants. Think about a Sabathia versus Matt Cain game.

I think, for America’s sake, it should be St. Louis and New York. The Yankees pick is self-explanatory and the Cardinals just play an exciting brand of baseball.

I would love to see the Tigers and the Gi-ants. Both teams are balanced across the board and have some motley characters, like Jim Leyland and Brian Wilson.

Question 3: What do you think is the best matchup that could still happen in the World series?
