he sound of a deep bass echoed through the room as the curtain rose. Shifting figures transitioned into men, bald and painted blue, pounding percussion instruments to the screams of the crowd. Three silhouettes danced along the walls of John R. Emens Auditorium on Tuesday night. With more than 2,200 people in attendance, Tuesday night’s show was the first of two for Blue Man Group. The group’s second show is at 7:30 tonight in Emens Auditorium. Plastic ponchos covered those sitting in the first few rows. The performers poured fluorescent paint onto the heads of drums, beating the paint several feet into the air to shine in the black lights. The blue men touched on the role of technology in 21st century life while interacting with giant “GiPads” that presented written material to the audience and dispensed Cap’n Crunch. Using Twinkies, table settings and a variety of other props, the group recruited an audience member during the show for a sketch on self-consciousness. However, junior finance major Hannah Medler turned the tables. The trio attempted to make Medler feel uncomfortable, parading her before the crowd, glaring at her in unison and using a variety of props to antagonize her.

Slate could be disqualified from election after fine Cardinal United campaign manager accused of being behind anonymous Twitter account DEVAN FILCHAK NEWS EDITOR | news@bsudailynews.com
Cardinal United, a slate running for executive board of the Student Government Association, was fined $519 for a violation by the elections board on Tuesday night. The violation brings the slates’ total in fines to $599, one dollar short of the maximum allowed before automatic disqualification. The slate has until 5 p.m. to-
day to post two $200 bonds to the elections board or else they will immediately be disqualified from the election. Campaign manager Con Sullivan and Jason Pickell, a senator who helped with Cardinal United’s campaign, have allegedly run an anonymous Twitter account @BSUSGAElections that has criticized at least one senator with personal
attacks, according to the SGA elections board. Kevin Thurman, elections board chair, said the slate violated Elections Code Article 7, Section 3, which allows the elections board to enforce the SGA constitution, SGA bylaws, Ball State regulations and federal, state and local laws. The elections board banned Sullivan and Pickell from being members or proxy of any student government branch, working in any capacity with a candidate or slate for SGA office, or being a part of
any board in SGA. The two SGA senators are also banned from attending any campaign events or campaigning in any capacity until the end of the 2013-14 academic school year. Sullivan said he has not had any part of running the anonymous Twitter account and doesn’t know why the elections board thinks he has any part in it. “I don’t know who is [in charge of the account],” he said. “I don’t support them. I don’t approve of anything they are doing. I think it is bad.”

RUNNING BACK SCOTT LEAVES BALL STATE TEAM Coach disappointed in decision, wishes former walk-on best in future endeavors MAT MIKESELL SPORTS EDITOR | @MatMikesell
The Ball State football team announced Tuesday that junior running back Barrington Scott has left the program for personal reasons. Scott was part of a crowded Ball State backfield in 2012 that included sophomore Jahwan Edwards, redshirt freshman Horactio Banks, junior Toney Williams and senior Dwayne Donigan. “Barrington Scott is a former walk-on who was put on scholarship following spring practice in 2011,” Ball State coach Pete Lembo said in a news release. “We are disappointed he will not be finishing his playing career here at Ball State in 2013 with his teammates. We will adjust accordingly and wish Barrington the best in future endeavors.”

Slates compete in final debate Candidates argue, defend platforms with 4 days left in campaign before voting starts RACHEL PODNAR CHIEF REPORTER as a facilitator and to provide | rmpodnar@bsu.edu support for organizations as Twelve students vying to take over as the next Student Government Executive slate debated in the last open forum before elections in Pruis Hall. Platform points, budget issues and controversies during the election were among topics addressed by debate coordinator Zach Hartley during the full slate debate Tuesday night. Presidential candidate Alex Sventeckis used Fusion’s opening statement to address disputes surrounding statements made about their platform point to allow alcohol sales at football games. Sventeckis said when the University of West Virginia changed its policy to serve alcohol in the stadium, alcohol-related arrests fell by 35 percent. “When we first set out to look into this idea, what really caught our attention and inspired us was the story of the University of West Virginia,” Sventeckis said. “This got us excited to protect students while they enjoy football games. This can help bring about change in that culture and support students while they go out and support our teams.” The slates used rebuttals to challenge each other on issues such as Fusion’s sorority housing and Cardinal United’s hopes to use parking money for transportation. Alexa Gates, Cardinal United’s vice presidential candidate, expressed concern as a member of a greek organization toward Fusion’s platform point regarding sorority housing, and said it cannot be accomplished in one year. Sventeckis responded and said Fusion’s role toward greek organizations would be more
an open line of communication between the greek community and administrators. “It’s more of a passive approach to the issue,” Sventeckis said. Brandon Pope, Cardinal United’s treasurer candidate, was asked about a text message he he sent requesting a student to ask questions about Spark’s platform points. “I asked them if they could attack their platform,” Pope told the Daily News after the debate. Cardinal United received a $35 fine for the texts, which constituted a violation of elections code. “It was a misunderstanding on my part of elections code,” Pope said during the debate. “We were encouraged to inform our supporters and to ask questions of platforms, not personal attacks but questions of platforms. If anyone felt bullied or intimidated, I did not intend to bully or intimidate. It’s not something I believe in.” Spark defended its platform point concerning a blue light app when an audience member questioned its appeal. Pope challenged that a similar proposal has already been on the senate floor and failed. Spark presidential candidate Malachi Randolph said the director of Emerging Technologies and Media Development, which all Ball State apps go through, had never previously spoken to students about a safety app, therefore any SGA efforts must not have been serious.

All three courses are designed to add interactivity for the digital platform they will be delivered on. “We have six authors and artists that are doing live interviews where people can text and tweet in questions,” Blanch said. Although the film noir class has hit its capacity, spots in the gender roles and algebra classes are still available.
IU TRUSTEES APPROVE RATE INCREASE FOR ROOM-AND-BOARD PACKAGES
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. (AP) — Indiana University’s trustees have approved rate increases that will boost the cost of the Bloomington campus’ most popular room-and-board package by 3.5 percent. The new rate structure approved Friday will raise rates for other apartments and residence halls as little as a half-percent to as much as 5 percent, depending on the housing accommodations. The Herald-Times reports Interim Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer MaryFrances McCourt said the increases are needed to cover inflation, student life programming and other needs. Under the increases, IU’s most prevalent room-and-board package will rise to $9,161 for the 2013-14 academic.
MISSING DALI PAINTING RETURNED NEW YORK (AP) — Authorities have charged a Greek man with ripping off a Salvador Dali painting from a New York City gallery, only to return it in the mail.

Students ask questions during the audience participation portion of the full slate debate Feb. 19, 2013 at Pruis Hall. The debate included questions from the moderator Zach Hartley, the audience, WCRD and Twitter.
Giang Tran said students would appreciate the added security. “There is only one street light from Kinghorn Hall [to my house],” Tran said. “Usually after my night class I have a roommate pick me up because I don’t feel safe walking down the street [at night].” Hartley led the questions for the first half hour, and then opened the floor for questions from WCRD, the audience and Twitter. He said the students’ questions pushed the slates to do more than just restate their platform points. “I wanted to get specific answers, tangible things that slates want to do,” Hartley
said. “I think the students, with the questions from the gallery really got them there at the end.” Tuesday was the first time the full slate debate was held in Pruis, a change that was made to accommodate three slates instead of two and to encourage students to attend. “This was arguably the best debate we have had in SGA,” Kevin Thurman, elections chairman, said. “As long as I have been here in four years we have never had a debate that has had the content, the discussion and the overall atmosphere that we had here tonight.” Chris Stephens contributed to this story.
SGA: Cardinal United must pay bonds to stay in race | CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 Board sanctions require Cardinal United presidential candidate Zeyne Guzeldereli to make a formal apology for the actions of his former staff members, including an apology to the anonymous individuals affected during the SGA senate meeting at 3:15 p.m. today. Treasurer candidate Brandon Pope must also make a formal statement of apology for his actions regarding a violation and $35 fine issued Monday. Thurman said if any sanction
by Sullivan or Pickell is violated or if Guzeldereli or Pope refuse to abide by the sanctions, Cardinal United will be disqualified from the election. Campaign treasurer Katrena Thompson said at 12:30 this morning that she believed the bonds would be posted by 5 p.m. “At this point, we are going to keep trucking along and stay strong,” she said. “Cardinal United has no affiliation about what is being put against us.” All sanctions were approved unanimously by the board.
Event to demonstrate oppression Student groups partner to educate on religion, racism KELLI EBNNETT STAFF REPORTER | ksbennett@bsu.edu
Student volunteers will illustrate forms of oppression today, providing a glimpse into the lives of others who have endured hardships due to religion, gender and being military veterans. The Housing and Residence Life Multicultural Committee will host Tunnel of Oppression today in the L.A. Pittenger Student Center Ballroom. This day-long event takes place from noon to 5 p.m. with an open exhibit and concludes with a live
exhibit 7 to 9 p.m. Lauren Harris, a student volunteer, said it has been more than 10 years since an organization at Ball State has hosted Tunnel of Oppression. Despite the hiatus, she believes this event is prevalent now more than ever because it paints a picture of different races and cultural groups. Harris said she hopes Tunnel of Oppression will begin to eliminate the lack of understanding that divides groups. The event will connect the dots showing that though groups may be different, they have something in common. Campuses nationwide also host Tunnel of Oppression events, including Kent State, Ohio State and Penn State. Similar to those
universities, the Ball State event will display vivid and graphic material. “In some aspects [Tunnel of Oppression] can be very intense because of some of the actions, real life situations,” said Nequel Burwell, assistant residence hall director for Baker/Klipple. “For those who have never been oppressed before, this is an eye opener.” Burwell said students put a lot of hard work, time and effort into making these exhibits. Not only will Tunnel of Oppression showcase students’ work through skits, video, photography and slideshows, but it will also give attendees a cultural understanding. “Students should be able to see that not everybody is the same
and they have different experiences,” she said. Tunnel of Oppression is free for everyone with a limited amount of shirts available for attendees. Harris urges participants to bring an open mind to tonight’s event in order to foster a better understanding of those around them.
and experiences with students. “It bridges the gap between academia and the business community and helps facilitate ties between Ball State alumni and business students,” Estep said. More than 70 alumni will visit campus over the course of the two-day event, and they will speak in more than 120 business classes. Estep said the alumni represent diverse professions and industries. The alumni vary from sales executives to entrepreneurs, accountants, managers, information technology and chief executive officers of industries as diverse as manufacturing and finance. “Each alumni that comes is connected with a faculty member and we ask them to talk about certain business
trends that are out according to the particular class they’re presenting to,” said Sue Taylor, assistant director of Alumni Reunions and Constituent Relations. Dialogue Day used to be held the Friday of Homecoming Week, but has expanded in recent years. “By holding the event on more than one day, this afforded our alumni more opportunities to work a visit to campus into their schedules,” Estep said. Alumni will visit various classes and will be available to share their experiences and engage students in discussions, and three panel discussions will be open to all students. The first panel discussion, “Navigating the Turbulent Waters of Career Advancement,” will precede the Cardinal Ca-
reer Fair at 3:30 pm Thursday in Whitinger Business Building room 144. “Students tell us how grateful they are to have an opportunity to interact with our alumni and appreciate the opportunity to ask questions related to their interest and ideas,” Estep said. “Faculty affirm that it is meaningful for students to hear about and be exposed to successful professionals that have chosen diverse career paths and alumni assert that they are excited about the opportunity to visit campus, enjoy their time spent with the students and see this program as a way to give back to the university,” Estep said. For more information, go to the event page on Ball State’s website.

California shooting spree leaves 4 dead
Shooter kills woman at home, 2 others while commuting | THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
TUSTIN, Calif. — A 20-year-old student shot and killed a woman in her home and two commuters during carjackings, shot up vehicles on a Southern California freeway and committed suicide as police closed in on him Tuesday, authorities said. One driver was forced from his BMW at a red light, marched to a curb and killed as witnesses watched in horror. “He was basically executed,” Santa Ana police Cpl. Anthony Bertagna said. “There were at least six witnesses.” The shooter, Ali Syed, was an unemployed, part-time student who lived at the Orange County residence where the first victim was slain, Tustin police Chief Scott Jordan said.
| SNOW ON CAMPUS
Orange County sheriff’s spokesman Jim Amormino said the woman killed at the home was in her 20s. She was not identified and is not related to the shooter, he said. Jordan said Syed stated to one carjacking victim: “I don’t want to hurt you. I killed somebody. Today is my last day.” The killings happened not long after a bloody saga that gripped Southern California for six days, as former Los Angeles police officer Christopher Dorner eluded a massive manhunt after killing three people. Dorner died Feb. 12 from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head after a fiery gun battle that left one police officer dead. The violence began at 4:45 a.m. local time, when deputies responded to a call in Ladera Ranch, southeast of Los Angeles. They found the woman shot multiple times. After the shooting, a neighbor said a man and three young children were escorted
from the home where the shots were fired. The gunman then headed north and within 30 minutes carjacked a Dodge pickup truck in Tustin, about 20 miles away, police said. The driver was uninjured, but a bystander was hit by gunfire and taken to a hospital. The suspect then began firing at vehicles in a busy intersection. Three people reported being targeted, including one who suffered a minor injury, Tustin police Lt. Paul Garaven said. Two cars were damaged. When the gunman’s truck got low on gas, he stopped in Santa Ana, stole the BMW and killed the driver, Bertagna said. The shooter then drove to a Tustin business called Micro Center and carjacked another small wruck, killing one person and wounding another, Garaven said. Officers trailed the gunman to Orange, a city about five miles away.

CHICAGO — Drug overdose deaths rose for the 11th straight year, federal data show, and most of them were accidents involving addictive painkillers despite growing attention to risks from these medicines. “The big picture is that this is a big problem that has gotten much worse quickly,” said Dr. Thomas Frieden, head of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, which gathered and analyzed the data. In 2010, the CDC reported, there were 38,329 drug overdose deaths nationwide. Medicines, mostly prescription drugs, were involved in nearly 60 percent of overdose deaths that
IND. SCHOOL TO APOLOGIZE FOR RACIST GAME COSTUMES Student attendees wore gorilla masks as part of ‘theme’ | THE ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW ALBANY, Ind. — Administrators at a southern Indiana school district planned to apologize for costumes students at a predominantly white middle school wore to a basketball game, sparking allegations of racism. Three New Albany-Floyd County Consolidated School Corp. officials told members of the NAACP’s New Albany branch Monday that they intend to write a letter of apology to Parkview Middle School over the costumes worn by Highland Hill Middle School students. A handful of Highland Hills students wore black masks — one with the face of a gorilla and another featuring President Barack Obama’s likeness — to a Feb. 7 eighthgrade basketball game between the schools. Highland Hills students were encouraged to dress for the home game in all black — a socalled “blackout” — to show their school spirit. Students were asked to wear other colors at earlier games. But some parents questioned if racism was involved considering the masks that were worn during the game against Parkview — a Jeffersonville school with several black students and basketball players. Lisa Barnett, whose son played on Parkview’s team that night, said she thought the district has downplayed the issue in media coverage of the incident by focusing on the three students. She said the district appeared not to understand the seriousness of the situation. “There were more than three masks. It seemed like a whole cheering section right in back of our basketball team that either had on black nylon masks, they had
on Obama masks and a bunch of gorillas and monkeys,” Barnett told the News and Tribune. “I couldn’t focus on the game because of these masks behind our boys.” Bill Briscoe, New AlbanyFloyd County’s assistant superintendent, said he understands why the district might have been viewed as insensitive. He said he wants to assure the community that the district does understand the gravity of the incident at the game, which Highland Hills won 34-29. “What happened was wrong, it was offensive and we know it was hurtful,” Briscoe said. “We hope that the three kids and their parents learned from this. “

year, overshadowing deaths from illicit narcotics. The report appears in Tuesday’s Journal of the American Medical Association. It details which drugs were at play in most of the fatalities. As in previous recent years, opioid drugs — which include OxyContin and Vicodin — were the biggest problem, contributing to 3 out of 4 medication overdose deaths. Frieden said many doctors and patients don’t realize how addictive these drugs can be, and that they’re too often prescribed for pain that can be managed with less risky drugs. They’re useful for cancer, “but if you’ve got terrible back pain or terrible migraines,” using these addictive drugs can be dangerous, he said. Medication-related deaths accounted for 22,134 of the drug overdose deaths in 2010.
Anti-anxiety drugs including Valium were among common causes of medication-related deaths, involved in almost 30 percent of them. Among the medication-related deaths, 17 percent were suicides. The report’s data came from death certificates, which aren’t always clear on whether a death was a suicide or an attempt at getting high. But it does seem like most serious painkiller overdoses were accidental, said Dr. Rich Zane, from the University of Colorado School of Medicine. The study’s findings are no surprise, he added. “The results are consistent with what we experience” in ERs, he said, adding that the statistics no doubt have gotten worse since 2010. Last month, a federal panel of drug safety specialists recommended that Vicodin and dozens of other medicines be subjected to the same restrictions as other
After Monday’s meeting, NAACP branch President Nicole Yates said she thought most members of the NAACP group felt school administrators were taking the appropriate steps. “I do believe most people were satisfied,” Yates said. But she also said she’s troubled by the incident because some of the mask images have long been recognized as racial insults to blacks. “It is no secret that it has been in the past that African Americans are referred to as gorillas or anything, monkeys and what have you,” Yates said. “And so it was offensive and it was offensive to a lot of people, a lot of parents.”

Ball State attempts to halt losing streak
Cards won Feb. 3 game, held Eagles to one 3-pointer The Ball State women’s basketball team was 8-1 in the Mid-American Conference and riding high on a six-game winning streak on Feb. 7. It was fresh off an upset win against Central Michigan and had a chance to move up to first place in the MAC West. Since then, Ball State has lost two straight; first to Toledo, then on a road match to Akron. The Cardinals have a chance to get back on the right path as Eastern Michigan comes to Worthen Arena tonight to play at 7 p.m.
If there was a MAC team to want to play to get back on a winning track, it would probably be Eastern Michigan. The Eagles have the second-worst overall MAC West record in conference play and the worst record in the MAC West in non-conference play. Ball State also beat Eastern Michigan on Feb. 3 by 15 points. However, coach Brady Sallee says his team will not be able to take that game and use it as a baseline. “Probably for starters, I think it’s important for my team to understand that just because the first game went the way we wanted it to, it doesn’t necessarily mean the second is going to,” Sallee said. “In my experience in these games, you better be ready to come in with just a little bit different gameplan and do things just a little bit better.” Sallee said there will be “a few

BARRINGTON: Running back fell down depth chart In his first full season at Ball State in 2011, Scott started the first game of the season against Indiana at Lucas Oil Stadium. He scored the first touchdown of the Lembo era by catching a 1-yard pass from Keith Wenning in the first quarter. Scott played in nine games in 2011 before a leg injury against Eastern Michigan ended his season. He finished with 370 rushing yards and one rushing touchdown in 2011. In 2012, Scott fell on the depth chart to No. 3 running back for Ball State behind Edwards and Banks. Scott played in 12 games last season and ran for 374 yards and a touchdown. The current Ball State roster lists only three running backs for the 2013 season in Edwards, Banks and incoming freshman Teddy Williamson.

different wrinkles” to the gameplan, but he wouldn’t make major changes. “It’s not like we’re going to rewrite the game,” Sallee said. “I think [Eastern Michigan] will clearly be prepared for the offense we ran against them. We’ll have a couple things that hopefully will be able to give us a look here and there that will be able to help us.” In the first game, Nathalie Fontaine scored a game-high 14 points and added 10 rebounds. Senior Shanee’ Jackson scored 12 points, but on 6-of-17 shooting. No matter the opponent, Ball State will have the same defensive philosophy. “We’re a team that’s going to sit in the gaps, and try to keep them from driving it and getting it into the paint. It’s going to be no different against Eastern Michigan,” Sallee said.

In its previous meeting this season, Ball State also held Eastern Michigan to just 25 percent from the field, with the Eagles making just 1-of18 three pointers. “If we expect to do that again, we’re crazy,” Sallee said. “We’re definitely going to get their best shot.”
After more than a week off, the Ball State men’s tennis team returns to action Wednesday as they host a pair of in-state teams. The doubleheader begins at 3 p.m. when the Cardinals take on IPFW and then continues at 7 p.m. against Indiana Tech. The Cardinals last played on Feb. 10 when they defeated IUPUI 7-0. In all four Cardinal victories this season, they have swept their opponents. They look to keep that streak alive with the help of Ray Leonard and Cliff Morrison. Both players are set to make their return Wednesday after missing the weekend series with different injuries. “The guys that have been injured are definitely making progress, not 100 percent yet, but I think both Ray and Cliff will see some playing time tomorrow,” coach Bill Richards said. Richards said it is important to get them back on the court. “I think tomorrow will help those guys get some play under their belt and help them prepare for Saturday,” Richards said. “When you haven’t been playing a lot, it’s hard to come right back out and be on top of your game, but you have to get going at some point in time.” With nine days between games, Richards gave the team a few days off as they faced a tough stretch to start

the spring season. “The first couple of days were kind of a recovery mode after a busy first six weeks here, and then from there it’s been very individual,” Richards said. “Just looking at each individual and kind of assessing where they are at this stage in the season, and identifying individual needs more than anything.” Richards hasn’t had his full squad healthy since mid-January and will have some key lineup decisions to make with Leonard and Morrison returning. “We’re just going to see how everyone is tomorrow and make some decisions at that time,” Richards said. “We’ll definitely be splitting time, everybody’s going to play at least one singles and one doubles match and a majority of the guys will have to play everything.”

Oladipo shines in Indiana’s Big Ten win Junior guard scores 19, makes go-ahead dunk to beat Sparty
|
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
EAST LANSING, Mich. — Victor Oladipo shook off a sprained left ankle with a spectacular performance to lift top-ranked Indiana to a 72-68 win over No. 4 Michigan State on Tuesday night. Oladipo’s go-ahead putback dunk and free throws in the final minute gave him 19 points to go along with nine rebounds, five steals and a block. Not bad for a guy who didn’t play after halftime of his previous game, just three days earlier, because of the injury. Hoosiers coach Tom Crean
insisted that the junior shooting guard “wasn’t even close� to 100-percent healthy. “There’s no doubt his foot hurt,� Crean said. “That mind was right, and that was the biggest thing.� Indiana (24-3, 12-2 Big Ten) broke a first-place tie in the conference — with four games left in the regular season — and moved a step closer toward earning top seeding next month in the NCAA tournament. “It was a huge win for us,� Oladipo said. “We’ve come a long way.� The Hoosiers had lost 17 straight — since 1991 — on the road against the Spartans. “Most of those guys weren’t alive,� Crean said. “It didn’t affect them.� Michigan State (22-5, 11-3) blew opportunities at the line.
Trailing by three with 3.7 seconds left, Harris was fouled on a 3-point attempt. He missed the first one — setting off sighs in the sold-out arena — and after making the second, he deliberately missed the third. Indiana got the rebound — Oladipo grabbed it, of course — and he hit two free throws to seal the win. “We were right there,� Gary Harris said somberly. “And, we could’ve won.� Keith Appling had missed the front end of a one and one with a little more than a minute left. “I’d say I was more upset than surprised,� he said. Cody Zeller had 17 points — nearly doubling what he had in the previous matchup against Michigan State — while Jordan Hulls and Christian Watford scored 12 each for the Hoosiers.

Oladipo and Zeller went over the 1,000-point mark of their careers in the game, joining Hulls and Watford in the club, to give the storied program four players with that many points on the same team for the first time. “They’ve got a lot of weapons,� Izzo said. “They’ve got a lot of experience.� Harris, Indiana’s Mr. Basketball last year, missed a layup in a crowded lane with 16 seconds left and finished with 19 points. Adreian Payne scored 17 and the rest of their teammates struggled offensively. Appling, Michigan State’s leading scorer, was held to six points on 1-of-8 shooting. “My quarterback struggled a little bit,� Izzo said. Branden Dawson had eight points and Derrick Nix
