Three years after former Student Body President Eve Carsons murder exposed cracks in the N.C. probation system and prompted a total overhaul, practices are still changing. Reforms to be implemented Dec. 1 and Jan. 1 will make it harder to revoke probation, will require that all felons are supervised upon prison release and will reroute offenders
from prison to probation. In 2009, the first round of legal and internal reforms were in response to the 2008 shootings of Carson and Duke University graduate student Abhijit Mahato. Prosecutors say Laurence Alvin Lovette Jr., a man on probation whose case was admittedly mishandled, had a hand in both murders. Lovette comes to trial for Carsons death next week. Those reforms improved efficiency and technology, evened out caseloads and revamped oversight. The second round of changes, which will be implemented in the upcoming weeks, arose partly from a need to cut costs and handle rising inmate populations.
The overall philosophy is to decrease reliance on incarceration, because incarceration is really expensive.
Jamie Markham, an assistant professor in the UNC School of government
The state expects a 3,000 prison bed shortfall by 2020, according to sentencing commission data. The measure aims to reduce that by emphasizing probation rather than incarceration. Rep. David Guice, R-Henderson, said the state could save $293 million in costs like prison upkeep when it cuts inmate numbers by 5,000 by 2017. The savings will be reinvested into probation and treatment, he said. The measure also requires supervision for all released felons instead of just some classes to aid readjustment and keep them out of prison. Tim Moose, director of the N.C. Department of Correction, said together the changes could add between 12,000 to 15,000 offenders to the 109,000-offender probation and parole system over several years.
Sgt. Shane Scott Pease served in the U.S. Army for five years before he was found dead in a Chapel Hill creek Saturday morning. Pease, 24, of Decatur, Mich., was found by a jogger at around 9 a.m. in Bolin Creek, just north of the Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard and Hillsborough Street intersection, according to a press releases from the 82nd Airborne Division and the Chapel Hill Police Department. The jogger contacted police after finding Pease, and Sgt. Shane Scott EMS declared him dead at the scene, Pease was found dead in Bolin Creek according to police. on Saturday.

University archaeologists thought they had stumbled upon an old well in McCorkle Place. One even older than the Old Well. But after a week of digging up a plot of land next to Vance Hall, a team of undergraduates, graduate students and faculty believe what they had originally thought to be a well might actually have been a house and hotel. University contractors first discovered remnants of historical property while preparing to install a new storm water pipe in October, said Steve Davis, associate director of UNCs Research Laboratories of Archaeology. David Cranford, a teaching assistant in the anthropology department, said the contractors notified the department. The contractors stopped working, Davis said, and the group began an excavation of the site Nov. 14. The excavation, which is ongoing, is being funded by UNCs Facilities Planning and

Construction. After realizing that the historical remnants were not of a well, the group speculated that the site could be a large cellar or possibly an outhouse. Now that they are further into the project, Davis and the group believe they have come across a backyard cellar they suspect was associated with a detached kitchen from a house that stood in the first half of the 1800s. As we get more exposed, were able to narrow down the likelihood of what it is, he said. We have more confidence in our current interpretations.
The first house built on the lot was constructed before 1797, Davis said. He said the group also found a drain that might be from a hotel that stood after the Civil War before the University bought it and tore it down. In 1905, the University bought the property, tore down the hotel and built Battle, Vance and Pettigrew (Halls), Davis said. The group also found greenedged, pearlware plates that were brought over from England and used in the early 1800s, in addi-
After months of closed-room debate, a committee appointed by Congress to reduce the federal budget has failed triggering automatic cuts and potentially reducing university research funding. The committees failure to reach an agreement will trigger a $1.2 trillion cut to the federal budget, which includes the agencies that supply grants to researchers. The research budget at UNC relies heavily on federal funds, which make up more than 70 percent of the Universitys $788 million total. Other public universities are similarly dependent, especially on agencies like the National Institutes of Health. Private universities are not immune to potential cuts, either. Of Duke Universitys $900 million research budget, $550 million comes from the federal government. The committee, comprised of six Republicans, who refused to levy higher taxes, and six Democrats, who balked from substantially changing entitlement programs, reached a stalemate Monday night and
announced they would not be able to make a decision by the Wednesday deadline. U.S. Rep. David Price, D-N.C., who wrote a joint letter to the supercommittee in defense of education funding, said the trigger cuts were less desirable than a committee recommendation. There could be another bite out of the apple for education and research, he said. But not all cuts are created equal, and we need to make investments for our future. Universities are already planning an advocacy campaign to lobby against heavy cuts to education-related agencies, said Melissa Vetterkind, the director of federal relations at Duke. But the impact of the automatic cuts to federal research funds is still uncertain. The House Appropriations Committee will decide where to make specific cuts before they go into effect in 2013, and the 2012 elections could change that process. Unfortunately, we dont know the effect that its going to have on research on campus, said Karen Regan, associate vice chancellor for research for UNC. But less funding could mean heightened
competition when researchers apply for grants, she said. Research funding is already at its tightest in decades, said C. William Davis, a UNC professor of physiology and researcher at the Cystic Fibrosis and Pulmonary Diseases Research and Treatment Center more than 90 percent of which is funded by the NIH. When the economy is flourishing, almost a quarter of grant applicants receive money for their research, Davis said. Less than 10 percent get funding now, even less than in the Reagan recession. It becomes almost impossible to get a grant funded, he said. And you can only bang your head against a wall so many times before you give up. He said UNCs success rate with grants is improving, despite the increased competition. But researchers and universities are looking to outside sources to make up the difference, Regan said. Were already in discussion about trying to diversify our funding, Regan said, adding that her office is looking at more

The UNC Ticket Office accidentally charged more than 70 students to enter the ticket lottery for the Nov. 30 basketball game against the University of Wisconsin. The computer system prompted students to pay a $7 processing fee to enter
the lottery, which provides winners two free tickets per game, during the first few hours it was open. Several students reported being charged via credit card, said Caitlin Goforth, president of the Carolina Athletic Association. People were texting me, tweeting at me, tweeting at the CAA, so they figured it out very quickly, she said. It was a complete error. The Wisconsin game was the first lottery sign-up game for this years basketball season, and the only lottery game in 2011. Clint Gwaltney, associate athletic direc-
tor for the ticket office, said the problem was corrected in the offices systems within a few hours after the lottery opened at 10 a.m. Sunday. Gwaltney said the $7 processing fee students were charged is usually applied to general admission ticket purchases. He said this processing fee was activated in the computer system for all ticket buyers, including students. As soon as the information got to us, (the glitch) was resolved, Gwaltney said. The ticket office is responsible for keeping the computer system running properly, he said. Kyle Fitzgerald, chairman of ticketing
for the CAA, said all 71 students have been contacted and had their tickets refunded. Most of that stuff is handled through the athletic ticket office, Fitzgerald said. I had gotten a couple emails from people complaining. Contact the University Editor at university@dailytarheel.com.
Theyre hard to miss, the Blue Men. Decked out in blue full-body spandex suits, hats flipped backward, sunglasses and UNC blue-colored kicks, North Carolina junior track and field athletes Chadd Pierce and Pete Rehder have been chanting and cheering for UNC football since the start of last school year. Inspired by Charlie Days Green Man character in the FX sitcom Its Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Pierce asked Rehder if he would be interested in adopting a similar persona at North Carolinas home opener last season. I found out (that Pierce and Rehder were the Blue Men) at the first football game last year, junior track and field teammate Ryan Ramsey said. My reaction was not surprised at all. Im surprised Chadd doesnt wear it around campus, actually. As their popularity grew, the Blue Men became some of UNC footballs rowdiest, loudest fans. Were not trying to toot our own horns, but we get pretty pumped, Rehder said. We try to keep the energy up. They sing, dance, yell, compete in freestyle rap battles and even have their own chant for a North Carolina first down. We are the super-fans. Im not afraid to turn around and just yell at people for not being loud. Im like, Get loud! Cmon! Pierce said. Pretty much for every football game, I lose my voice by the end of the first quarter. Pierce said they try to remain respectful of other fans by keeping the chants and cheers G-rated, and they said they realize that not all fans are as outwardly supportive of the Tar Heels. In return, they have gained the admiration of fellow students and UNC fans alike. I love the respect we get. People arent like Man, you guys are crazy, Pierce said. (Instead) its like We respect you. What you guys do is legit. Aside from widespread respect, their unyielding dedication bears many other benefits. The two have been on TV multiple times and have even received a shout-out from a commentator. They said they constantly receive photo requests and have been featured on SI.com. For Pierce and Rehder, though, its not all fun and games under the suit. Weve gotten a little sweaty this year; lets just say that, Rehder said with a laugh. Cold weather offers no respite. The spandex provides little protection from wind, rain and chilly temperatures. People are like Oh, well at least when its cold outside, youre covered. That thing is paper-thin, Pierce said. You get the worst of both. When its hot, youre burning up, and when its cold, (youre freezing). But Pierce and Rehder are willing to endure those challenges, and they do so anonymously just the way they like it. They dont want the aura of the Blue Men to be ruined by revealing their identities. If you just know people as the Blue Men, its like a

persona, Rehder said. Outside of spending their Saturdays at Kenan Stadium clad in spandex, Pierce and Rehder are typical UNC student athletes. As Tar Heel track and field athletes, they both experience and respect the time and dedication required of Division-I student athletes. Both are team captains this year and have their eyes set on a
conference championship. They have even considered mixing their two identities. To try to get people to come to track meets, were gonna pole vault, at some point, in the Blue Man suits, Pierce said. Were gonna do it. Contact the Sports Editor at sports@dailytarheel.com.
The new chairwoman of the African and Afro-American Studies department will play no role in UNCs ongoing investigation of the department. But Eunice Sahle, a faculty member since 2001, plans to help shape structural changes to the department, administrators said. The University announced Thursday the appointment of Sahle to the position. She will succeed Julius Nyangoro. The department and Nyangoro, who remains a professor in the department, came under scrutiny this summer when it was discovered that former defensive end Michael McAdoo had largely plagiarized a paper for Nyangoros class. The offense was not addressed by Nyangoro or the honor system. Sahle, who declined to comment for this article, will not play a part in the investigation of the department prompted by the McAdoo case. She will not be involved in any way in that review, said Jonathan Hartlyn, senior associate dean for social sciences and global programs in the College of Arts and Sciences. Evelyne Huber, interim chairwoman of the department, said the investigation will be handled by the College. To my knowledge, Professor Sahle will have no role whatsoever in the investigation of the past, she said. Sahle will deal more with deciding what structure the department will have moving forward, Hartlyn said. In a meeting with students and professors in the department earlier this month, Huber said that the department lacked a community governance system. She said Sahle is an excellent choice to lead the department. She has a deep knowledge of the department and excellent judgment, she said. She has a vision for the department that is inclusive and wants to provide the best possible education for the students and the best intellectual environment for students and faculty. Administrators had specific traits in mind when evaluating candidates. We were looking for someone who can be a strong advocate for the department and someone
Protesters at the Chapel Hill Town Council meeting Monday wanted their voices heard, whether the council wanted to hear them or not. Carrying signs, using hand signals and cheering or booing, Occupy Chapel Hill participants were opposing the Nov. 13 police raid at the former Yates Motor Company building. The council addressed resident Jim Neals petition to create a thirdparty committee that would review police procedures leading up to the decision to send an anti-riot squad to break up those occupying the abandoned building. Neal said he represented residents who were concerned and confused by the towns response in the aftermath of the raid. I listened to the press conference and was completely unsatisfied with the responses provided from the Chapel Hill Police Department and also the mayor in regards to the incident, he said. Neal said he wants the committee to determine why the police department responded in a way he felt was disproportionate to the threat.

I absolutely could not believe that in Chapel Hill, of all places in the U.S. or around the planet, that Id ever witness something like this, he said. Residents who were not protesters also expressed concern about the police reaction. Bert Gurganus, who spoke at the meeting, said the methods used to evict protesters were bad policing and town policy. I find this to be deplorable and unAmerican, he said. But other residents said they could see the reasoning behind the towns
reaction. Geoff Gilson, a worker-advocate at Weaver Street Market, said he doesnt believe the police department acted inappropriately. They went in and obviously went in with great care and caution because no one was significantly hurt, he said. Gilson agreed that an impartial committee should still be formed to review the actions of the police department. Some town council members sym-
Hip-hop group Travis Porter will perform on this semesters last day of classes, the Carolina Union Activities Board announced yesterday. Tickets for the show, which will be in the Great Hall of the Student Union, go on sale Monday. We thought the concert would be a great way to end the semester, said Marquise Hudson, performing arts chairman for CUAB. Some of Travis Porters better known songs include the hits Go Shorty Go, Bananas, Bring It Back and Make It Rain. The bands performance is contracted for $14,000. The concert will be one of two hosted by CUAB on Dec. 7. The other show, which will precede Travis Porter, will feature local folk bands Mandolin Orange and Mipso Trio in Historic Playmakers Theatre. Cierra Hinton, president of CUAB, said the organization had been planning the concert since the summer. This seemed like a good time for them to come, she said.
Hudson said Travis Porter which is based in Decatur, Ga. has an energetic, Southern sound. Their music is about being in your late teens and early twenties, he said. Hinton said she felt the student body would be excited about the show and her prediction came true. Twitter has been blowing up with people who are excited about the show, she said. Weve already had people calling the box office to ask when the tickets are going on sale. Hinton also said that Travis Porters fun musical style is appropriate for a concert

Probation
Probation officers already see an average of 71 offenders 11 more than national ideals and officials say they mustnt overtax the system. Moose says the department expects enough funding to handle the influx, but he doesnt know how much that will require. There are still some unknowns, said Pamela Walker, spokeswoman for the department. Officials say though the 2011 legislation will add offenders, changes implemented since the 2008 murders have made the system more efficient and equipped to handle the additions. Jamie Markham, an assistant professor in the UNC School of Government who has studied the new legislation, said ongoing internal reforms in the department came partly from issues exposed in 2008. Those problems were farreaching. Lovette never met with his probation officer, Chalita Thomas, between his January 2008 sentencing and his March 2008 arrest. Further investigation showed Thomas hadnt completed officer training. Officials said the breakdown occurred because of communication errors and caseworker overload. At the time, files related to offenders and officers were filed in paper. Officers like Thomas monitored as many as 120 people and were trained and sent abruptly into the field. Moose said that has all changed. The organizational system has become computerized so that supervisors can better see that caseworkers are keeping up with their offenders and have completed training, he and Walker said.

Jennifer MacNeil, a field services specialist, said technology has also made caseloads more manageable. She said new tools include a computer program that allows officers to track probationers locations, visit dates and offense alerts on one screen. And while caseloads were sometimes grouped by risk level one officer might see 20 highrisk offenders while another monitored more than 100 low-risk officers now see similarly sized mixed caseloads statewide. MacNeil also said new practices of assessing an offender based on risk factors like personality and history not just criminal history have helped officers to better understand who they are watching and assess their needs. MacNeil said the fact that the state caseload average still exceeds the ideal isnt felt in the field because of the changes. You might have a higher case number level but your workload is what counts, she said. To ensure caseload stability, the department has also cut vacancies from 10 percent in 2008 to 1 to 2 percent of the workforce in 2011. Moose said the agency has hit lows of 20 vacancies at a time. He said the agency has also revised how it prepares its officers. Before, officers went through basic training, then were given a caseload and sent into the field. Now, officers complete training and then spend two years gradually increasing caseload while receiving on-the-job training. In the past, you went to training, when you came back you had your caseload thrown at you and said, good luck, Moose said. He and Walker added that no communication between counties existed 2008, so for a probation officer to know that their charge

partnerships with corporations and foundations. Private funding can alleviate some shortages in funding, but it cannot totally replace federal grants, said Miles Lackey, director for federal affairs and UNCs lobbyist in Washington, D.C. Its impossible to find enough private sources to fund scientific research, which often cannot guarantee a high or quick financial returns, Lackey said. Thats really where the federal government has to step in, because the payoff is so far down the road, he said.
The automatic cuts will also affect student aid, but Congress protected Pell grants from the cuts, said Shirley Ort, director of Scholarships and Student Aid at UNC. Depending on the appropriation process, it could cut 7.8 percent of funding for federal work study programs and supplemental education opportunity grants, she said, which would affect 87 UNC students. In the big picture, these would be small reductions. However, even small reductions add up to real money when they keep coming, she said.

pathized with the petition, saying the town needed to regain the residents trust. I hope you folks can see there is a way to be supportive of both the town manager, our police department and the third-party assessment, Mayor Pro Tem Jim Ward said. The council referred the petition for further consideration. The council also voted down a proposal by council member Laurin Easthom to issue a formal apology for the arrest of journalists Katelyn Ferral and Josh Davis. The vote was received with chanting from protesters that resulted in the council taking a five-minute recess before moving to other agenda items. Contact the City Editor at city@dailytarheel.com.

Rural fire department to get fire truck with longer ladder
The Orange Rural Fire Department and the town of Hillsborough will officially receive a new fire truck today at 10 a.m. The truck will be delivered to the main fire station on Churton Street in downtown Hillsborough. The truck will have a 95-foot aerial ladder, allowing it to reach the top of the two-story Durham Technical Community College building in the Waterstone development. The departments other aerial truck, a 1987 model could not reach the top of the building. The truck and ladder are made out of aluminum, which because it is lighter, will cause less damage to the trucks engine and town streets. The truck cost the town about $754,000, which is $250,000 less than similar trucks since the ladder is recycled from a truck in Syracuse, N.Y. The trucks equipment will cost $58,000. Part of the trucks cost will be covered by $600,000 in fire capital contributions from the Waterstone development.

UNC football team ready for rivalry game against Duke
The victory bell will be on the line Saturday on senior day when Duke comes to Kenan Stadium at 3:30 p.m. North Carolina interim coach Everett Withers will lead 17 Tar Heel seniors out on to the field for the last time, including receiver Dwight Jones, who just eclipsed the 1,000 yard mark for the season against Virginia Tech. Running back Giovani Bernard, who left last weeks game with a mild concussion, participated in non-contact practice Sunday and is expected to be at full strength Wednesday, Withers said. - From staff and wire reports

kvetch: v.1 (Yiddish) to complain You know you live in the South when the loudest cheer of the basketball game occurs when the crowd wins 2 for $1 Bojangles Sausage Biscuits. To the Occupy Chapel Hill people: Nice, attractive, straight guys are the real 1 percent on this campus. GTFO. To the boys with an entire back seat full of beer: It doesnt matter how many cases you have, no girl will ever take you seriously until you drive something a little more manly than a Honda Prius. The only way John Henson could have any more swagger is if he started doing the Dikembe Mutombo finger wag after blocks. To the UNC basketball team at the Breaking Dawn midnight premiere: My only question is: Team Edward or Jacob? Motion to hold open kicker tryouts for the Duke game? I think so, Coach Withers. That awkward moment when youre the only one queening out to Tina Turner in a 300-person Rock History class. To whoever was shaving in the mens bathroom in Sitterson evidently over the urinals? I dont even... To the scrub who wouldnt let me play on his flag football team because Im not 65 and jacked: I turned down a preferred walk on spot as a strong safety at App to come here. Good call though, chief. To the drunk gentleman from Granville who ran to mid-campus and brought me graham crackers at 3 a.m.: That was by far one of the best midnight snacks Ive ever had. Thank you. I hope the NBA lockout continues so I get to see Tyler Hansbrough at Topo more often. Chapel Hill, where our fire trucks are Carolina blue and our buses are N.C. State red. Seriously, UNC? How would you like your apple: with one bruise or two? #QuestionsFromLenoir To the person who stole the biology departments skull models: Next time make sure to grab a heart, because its obvious you dont have one. Writing papers is like having bad sex. The more Im forced to do it, the better I get at faking the whole thing. To the tool in my jazz class who tried selling his notes over the listserv: Did you really think our professor wasnt going to turn that over to the honor code office? To my inept physics professor who consistently fails to solve his own problems: Where did you buy your Ph.D? And can I get one too?

Paint it green
tudent fees are on the rise, budgets are being slashed across the board and classes are steadily being shaved away. With such menacing measures being taken to save money, cleaner methods of expense reduction are always welcome. But for these methods to take root, students and faculty need to be aware of and involved in saving energy so all buildings on campus can join conservation efforts. One of these methods was highlighted last week when Kenan Residence Hall was recognized by the Environmental Protection Agency for its energy conservation efforts. Kenan recorded $8,000 in savings last
EDiTOriAl
year, or a 4 percent decrease in consumption, according to the EPAs Energy Usage Index. Last year, Morrison won the EPAs National Building Competition by saving over $200,000, cutting 36 percent of its energy consumption. With UNC gaining national recognition in energy savings two years in a row, its clear that we have the innovation and means to save money through energy efficiency. But Kenan is only an extension of UNCs Energy Conservation Measures as a whole. Not all the methods used in Morrison, such as the solar panels, are applicable to other buildings. This is why similarly large savings havent been seen in other buildings. Most buildings funded by the state have already been upgraded for energy efficiency, but the need for continued
energy conservation lies in the buildings that havent been improved yet 30 to 40 percent of buildings on campus. These buildings have to generate their own funds for improvements because of budget restraints, but they shouldnt have to do it alone. The Renewable Energy Special Projects Committee was created specifically to help fund receiptbased structures like these, which are sustained on the revenue they bring in. Granted, the borrowing buildings will need to generate enough revenue to pay back the loans, but Morrisons past success proves that this well-organized and efficient route should be considered. Everyone on campus must be more efficient in energy consumption. Because of constant hikes in student fees and tuition, now is the time to be proactive.
candidate in the last election season and fix three critical flaws in the current system. Flaw number one: Signature counts alone dont accurately gauge a candidates viability. Last year, candidate Rick Ingram collected a record 2,945 signatures, but ultimately finished in third place at the end of the election. While important, they are only part of a successful campaign package. Candidates should also be required to provide students with the information necessary to make an informed decision. These should include a platform, a website and a minimum level of debate participation. Students have a right to judge candidates on more than just Pit presence. Flaw number two: Expecting students to sign only one petition is unreasonable. While 1,250 signatures is a considerable hurdle, the actual number required to gain certification is far higher since students who sign multiple petitions are disqualified. Given that most students know little about student government, let alone election law, it is understandable how hundreds of students unknowingly disqualify themselves by signing multiple petitions. Last year, of the 1,861 students who signed my petition for SBP, more than 500 were
disqualified. Student Congress should either abolish this singlesignature policy or make changes that allow students to make an informed decision before signing. This leads me to flaw number three of the current system. Flaw number three: Banning public campaigning during the signature-gathering process forces students to select a candidate based on little to no information. The result is a race by campaigns to solicit or bug an ever-increasing number of students to ensure certification. This process of Pit-sitting, screaming, cheering and begging cheapens student involvement in the election process and turns off many students before a single candidate is even on the ballot. These three flaws create a perverse incentive system that discourages candidates from focusing on the key issues, such as tuition, and encourage a popularity-focused system of machine-style politics that has repeatedly failed to drive results once in office. Student Congress can go a long way to electing student candidates that are results driven and more focused on representing students than padding their own resumes by incorporating these suggestions into De La Rosas election law.

that this ordinance is in place, she said. I just think its wrong, and I want to show its wrong by coming here. Dear said police havent asked him to leave the corner. Carrboro Mayor Mark Chilton said this might be because the ordinance is not meant to regulate political statements. Weve not been enforcing the ordinance with respect to those who are sitting out as a kind of political protest, he said. Chilton said a repeal of the ordinance is likely either tonight or in January after newly elected Michelle Johnson, who supports the repeal, is sworn in. Johnson said she would like the town to consider other long-term solutions, like a workers center and resident and laborer negotiations. Judith Blau, the director of the Chapel Hill and Carrboro Human
Rights Center, said she and other civil rights activists have also prepared a code of conduct signed by laborers to present at the meeting. Chilton said together Dear and the group opposing the ordinance have drawn attention to the issue. I wouldnt say its just his having lunch everyday, he said. His advocacy worked in combination with others in having a big impact in what will happen with the ordinance. Dear said repealing the ordinance is the right thing to do. The issues reflected here are not all simple, and the solutions arent easy for our community, he said. But the ordinance is simply wrong, and we cant deal with the complicated issues until we repeal the ordinance.

@dailytarheel Im thankful for gym mirrors that show me how pitiful/fat I look while kickboxing. Who said embarrassment is poor motivation?
government offered to resign in an attempt to calm three consecutive days of unrest that have shaken the country ahead of next weeks parliamentary elections. It was unclear if the ruling Supreme Council of the Armed Forces would accept the Cabinets offer to step aside, which would severely undermine the militarys legitimacy. It was unlikely that resignations would have appeased protesters whose main target of derision has been the ruling generals and their refusal to hand power over to a new democracy. The interim government led by Prime Minister Essam Sharaf, who has offered to step down before, was installed in March and quickly fell out of favor with activists and political groups. The violence, which so far has killed at least 24 people and injured more than 1,400, has further unnerved a nation whose democratic ambitions after the fall of Hosni Mubarak in February have been stalled. The scene in the square for much of Monday was reminiscent of last winters uprising, but it was more sullen, lacking the infectious enthusiasm that swept through the crowds during the final days of Mubaraks regime. In a sense, the military, revered by protesters in February as the protector of the revolution, had become the betrayer of Egypts Arab Spring
