FROM THE PAST Local artist uses military experience to create sci-fi comics JEREMY ERVIN STAFF REPORTER

A man and women in orange combat armor dominate the front cover. Strapped with guns, they’re encircled by ships, buildings and floating spheres. The title “Kilbot Facility” hangs above their heads. Many figures like them storm through the pages of futuristic art. As company on the page, they’re joined by robots, vehicles and maps of places the viewer can never go. There are four of these comics in the set, as well as a larger horizontal book titled “Joseph Routh II Design Portfolio, Gearhead INC.” Joseph Routh, 42, JOSEPH ROUTH A local graphic is a graphic designer, designer, Army Army veteran and aspiring comic book veteran and writer working in sci-fi comic Muncie. His collection book artist of sci-fi stories and art, the culmination of over a decade of work, were first displayed in local shop Atomic Comic in fall of 2013. “When I was young, I was into G.I. Joe comics and stuff like that,” he said. “Then I’ve always liked to draw, so I just wanted to do my own stories.” Included in his list of influences are films like “Star Wars”, “The Matrix” and “Alien”. The comic books showcase a blend of different visual methods, including

vector images, CGI models and, hand drawings. Some images are combinations of the three. “It takes a little bit of work, but to me, it pays off.” Routh said, “It looks real crisp, I like the look I’m getting out of that.” The “Spy Corporation Database” book was originally intended to be a video game on the Xbox platform, but the scale of the project was too much for a small team to develop. Routh draws on his own experience when creating his art. In 1989, he joined the U.S. Army and worked in communications repairing radios. After leaving the Army in 1994, he joined the Indiana National Guard. While with the National Guard, Routh volunteered to deploy for a one-year campaign in Bosnia under Brig. Gen. T.J. Wright. There, he continued working in design, even doing work presented to visiting Indiana Senator Richard Lugar. In 2004, he attended the 7th Army Noncommissioned Officer Academy located in Grafenwoer, Germany. After deploying to provide relief during hurricane Katrina, he retired from the National Guard, receiving an honorable discharge in 2006. The comic books and associated trading cards combine to flesh out a universe of Routh’s own creation. He attributes the “mech-feel” of his style and other elements of his storytelling to

the military. “I know a lot about military lifestyle, so I kind of fuse that into my comics,” he said. “When you’re in the military, you’re there to help. So I have the feel in the story of dark vs. the good. You’ve got an entity that you’re against at all times. Good prevails.” The plans to distribute his current work began about a year ago. After compiling, organizing and polishing his work, he decided to see what it could do. He talked with his boss at Muncie Novelty Company, Inc. and got approval to do a print run of his work. Routh described himself as “detail oriented,” which shows in the intricate mechanical themes of his art. Looking forward, he’s working with “steampunk” styles with plans for it to be heavy on pencil-work. More in-depth narratives are another goal he hopes to accomplish. According to Atomic Comic manager and music specialist Bob Breitung, Routh is the first local to walk in and show work. “There’s creative people around here,” he said. “Downtown is the hub... It’s where bright-eyed young people hang out with their new ideas. For Routh, telling stories is just good fun. “Even da Vinci got busted in some of his drawings, drawing fictitious characters,” he said. “The guy we credit for the helicopter, just doodling.”

Joseph Routh’s character from the comic Archvolt is inspired by his military experience. Each book combines sci-fi with military ideas.

Turnovers cause 4 game losing streak Freshman impact provides offense, give team identity |

DAVID K. JONES CHIEF REPORTER @dkjones_BSU

Four games in, the Ball State men’s basketball team is still looking for its first conference win, this time against Buffalo. The Bulls are a team wellknown for stretching out defenses and shooting the ball without much hesitation, things Ball State struggled with in its previous loss

to Miami. “We got done with the Miami game and watched the game as a team on Sunday,” head coach James Whitford said. “I thought we learned a lot of lessons from it.” Ball State played one of its worst games against the RedHawks Saturday, committing 22 turnovers. The Cardinals were down by 26 points at one point, but reduced the lead to 64-52 before the final horn sounded. “The turnovers become psychologically really frustrating for us.” Whitford said. “We gotta get better at taking care

of the ball. We have to handle pressure better. We have to pass and catch better. We have to make sure that every single game we’re making taking care of the ball a huge priority.” Zavier Turner paced the Cardinals with a career-high 24 points in a game where his team looked doomed from the start. All-MAC center Majok Majok finished with 8 points and 10 rebounds, only taking four shots. Chris Bond scored 14. The freshmen have been the focal point for the Cardinals identity. Mark Alstork, Franko House and Zavier Turner are

regulars in Whitford’s rotation. These three have combined for 1,139 game-time minutes out of a possible 3,000. Quinten Payne is notable because he has been battling a foot injury for a few games. “Franko, Mark and Zavier, in my eyes, are no longer freshmen.” Whitford said. “Those guys have had an incredible amount of game experience— I believe they can start defending like upperclassmen because they have so much game experience. Buffalo isn’t a team that Ball State or its freshmen can take lightly. Its leading scorer is

Ball State head coach Kristy Castillo wanted to give Ruehl a “mental and physical” break from the events she’s dominated all season. So, she moved Ruehl to the individual medley. The result was more of the same. “Even in an event she doesn’t swim that often, she’s still able to get a win,” Castillo said. Ruehl is taking advantage of her final opportunities to cement a legacy in the Ball State swim program she has come to love. “I’m going to miss [college],” she said. “People strive for competition and there is really no experience like when you are in college ... You don’t

get that many opportunities when you are not with a college team to compete.” After the season concludes, Ruehl plans to train for Olympic Trials with former Ball State women’s swim coach Laura Caudill. She matched the 2012 U.S. Olympic Team Trials qualifying time of 1:12.19 in the 100-yard breaststroke. In eight Ball State meets this season, Ruehl has been a part of seven first-place relay finishes along with 15 individual victories. Fourteen of her wins have come from the 100 and 200yard breaststroke events, where Ruehl is undefeated. With just more than a month before the Mid-American Conference championship, an undefeated regular season is one of Ruehl’s goals for the remainder of the year. “I want to maintain being undefeated,” Ruehl said while knocking on her wooden desk. “I want to follow up with how I did at [the MAC championship] last year, and I would like to do better than what I did last year at NCAA [championship].” Ruehl took first in both the 100 and 200-yard breast-

Her experience in last year’s conference final boosted Ruehl’s confidence for the upcoming championships. “If you believe you can do it ... you can do it,” she said. “There is some really tough competition out there ... but I believe in myself and I believe in my training.” Ruehl’s training isn’t limited to improving her own times. In practice, she serves not only as a leader sharing knowledge and experiences with teammates, but she often can be found providing comic relief.

“She works hard in practice all the time,” said junior Jordan VanWinkle. “She has such a positive attitude and she is so full of energy. ... She really lifts us up and helps us with our attitudes.” Her role as a leader is one that Castillo has been grateful for, as well. “It’s awesome for the younger swimmers to see someone in her position, because they are striving to want to do what she is doing one day also,” Castillo said. “For them to experience seeing someone go to the NCAA meet, seeing someone win a MAC championship, to see it look so effortless, and to see her do it with such grace ... “If you just looked at her, you wouldn’t even think that she is the swimmer that she is.” Once Ruehl’s eligibility runs out, following the NCAA championship in March, she plans to move to Indianapolis and train for the Olympic Trials with former Ball State women’s swim coach Laura Caudill. However, until this season is in the books, Ruehl still has unfinished business.

Aside from McCrea, Joshua Freelove and Will Regan are shooting the ball from threepoint distance at a strong rate of 41 and 42 percent respectively. Regan is a 6-foot-8 forward who can score inside and outside, averaging 10.6 points per game. “(Bobby Hurley’s) team plays really hard; you know they really do.” Whitford said. “The best thing they do is defend,

SOPHOMORE CAN’T SUCCEED ALONE Ball State has found its young anchor four matches into the season, but the offense will collapse unless veterans step up to balance the attack. Sophomore Marcin Niemczewski leads the Ball State men’s volleyball team by a pretty wide margin with 45 kills and 96 attacks. A sophomore, whose experience amounted to just five sets until this season, shouldn’t be accountable for carrying the offense. Though Niemczewski’s play is impressive, Ball State’s lack of balance is terrifying. No veteran has stepped up to take control, which has resulted in a 1-3 record early on. Niemczewski is being asked to do too much, too early. Already this season, he accounts for 28.7 percent of the offense. They can’t afford to rely on Niemczewski to be the star player on offense. His lack of experience makes him a question mark until he receives more playing time. Young, inexperienced players are prone to drastic swings in the quality of their play, having a couple of great matches followed by a few poor ones. Before the season began, Walton spoke about how junior Shane Witmer and seniors Matt Leske and Kevin Owens could become the main threats in the offense to replace graduation losses. Yet none of them have become consistent threats—not enough to make defenses key in on them during most points. Instead, none of them are averaging more than a paltry 1.57 kills per set. That doesn’t inspire much fear. So far this season, Ball State has faced two teams ranked in the top 12. UC Irvine was No. 1 and Penn State is No. 12. The difficulty of opponents makes the offensive struggles more understandable, but not inexcusable. Owens was named a preseason All-American and Leske was named a First-Team AllMIVA choice. Combined, they still have fewer kills than Niemczewski. Second in kills is fifth-year senior Larry Wrather with 26. In December, Walton said he expected Wrather to play a complementary role throughout the season. He expected him to see more time at libero while carrying less of a load on offense. Instead, he’s becoming a significant part of the offense, tying for first in kills against Penn State. Walton may want him to play more libero, but can’t afford to remove him from offense because of the production that would be lost. At the same time, Wrather’s body may not be up to the challenge. He’s coming off a major shoulder injury and spent all of the previous season recovering. Relying on him too much could result in another injury and with the current state of the offense, that’s not something they can afford. If Ball State wants the offense to ignite, as its currently hitting just .205, the veterans need to step up and take pressure off Niemczewski and Wrather. The diversity will prevent defenses from honing in on a few specific players, keeping Wrather fresh and not overwhelming Niemczewski. Strong contributions from Owens, Leske, Witmer and others could propel Ball State toward a successful MIVA season. There’s still time to get the offense figured out, considering the season just began weeks ago. But if they don’t, it’ll be a rough season.

SETTER FROM BRAZIL ADJUSTS TO CULTURE, NEW TEAM Changes challenge transfer player after moving from home

DAVID POLANSKI ASSISTANT SPORTS EDITOR @David Polanski

Energy crackles through Worthen Arena seconds before the start of every men’s volleyball match. Hiago Garchet feels the liveliness. A sophomore setter for Ball State, Garchet is a transfer student from Park University, originally born in Belo Horizonte, Brazil. But the energy he feels before beginning a match is nothing

like what he was used to feeling in Brazil. “The energy ... you bring it into a game [in Brazil] so much more than you do here,” Garchet said. “We’re more outgoing, there’s more vibration ... we’re more open in Brazil about saying things to each other.” Garchet said in the United States, people have to watch what they say more than in his native country and people are far more independent. In Brazil he had a housekeeper who cooked meals for him and cleaned his room, forcing him to rely on others and not as much on himself. The sudden change was slightly startling to him, said head coach Joel Walton. After years of

« We’re more outgoing, there’s more vibration ... we’re more open in Brazil about saying things to each other. » HIAGO GARCHET, sophomore setter

being looked after, Garchet was forced to be independent. “Back there, I had everything. Now I’ve got to do everything myself,” he said. “I kind of like it, I like it better than before, taking care of myself.” Robiyabonu Dustova understands Garchet’s situation. A worker for the Rinker Center for International Programs, Dustova transferred to Ball State from Tajikistan in central Asia. She said very few countries

have citizens who work as independently as Americans; most countries are group oriented and rely on others. Newfound independence isn’t the only adjustment Garchet’s had to make. He sits behind senior setter Graham McIlvaine, who watched the younger setter grow since he arrived last year. After initially struggling, Garchet is picking up speed. “During the preseason he was just throwing balls to random

spots and I don’t know why or what he was doing,” McIlvaine said. “Now he’s being a smart setter and it’s the biggest improvement he’s made.” McIlvaine isn’t the only person who’s seen improvement. Walton has been coaching Garchet since his arrival and believes he has a quality backup. He may not be a backup for long, as McIlvaine will graduate and the starting setter position will be up for grabs. “He thinks the game really well and is really good at locating the ball, a lot better than when he first arrived,” Walton said. “He’s got so many good qualities that we’re looking for in a setter.” A bonus for Garchet is that he studied English before he came

to the United States. He said it took him about a month after transferring to feel comfortable speaking the language, much different from the Portuguese he was used to. Despite getting used to the language, it’s not easy for him to be away from his family for long periods of time. He described the Brazilian culture as familyoriented. “I miss my friends, I miss my family,” he said. “It’s hard, them being so far away.” His voice sparked when he mentioned his parents back home; his energy level seeming to increase before his upcoming 9 a.m. practice. The same energy level he’s used to playing with in Brazil.

SGA election code changes aim to create fair season Campaign duration shortened by week to increase morale RACHEL PODNAR CHIEF REPORTER | rmpodnar@bsu.edu Student Government Association voted to approve some of the changes to the elections code addressing issues and concerns from the previous election. Campaign season will last only two weeks this year, versus last year’s three week election season duration. SGA vice president Alyssa France said candidates last year expressed that three weeks was too long. “Three weeks is exhausting,” France said. “You’re campaigning nonstop. It can put a dent on your grades and morale. We felt it was important to give students two weeks and not drain them emotionally, physically and mentally.”

Another change is that campaigns and their staffs will no longer be able to present students with technology like tablets or laptops to solicit votes, addressing a concern from last year’s campaign tactics. Students on campaigns and campaign staffs will now be held to the Ball State Student Code of Conduct, compared to the past when it was not specified in the elections code. “It was a concern in election last year. Some behaviors of candidates and staff went against the student code, and because it wasn’t defied by elections code, the board wasn’t sure what to do,” France said. One of last week’s proposed changes stated student media would not report the results of the nominating convention until 24 hours after nominating convention, but this was struck out in Wednesday’s meeting.

ELECTION CODES •S tudent Government voted to approve and reject certain changes to the election code. •T he changes were discussed last week and mainly focus on avoiding problems that arose in last year’s elections. •M ajor changes include reducing campaign season from three to two weeks, outlawing vote solicitation with tablets and holding campaigns to the Student Code of Conduct. France said the nominating convention will be open to the public and SGA has no jurisdiction over student media. It will be the decision of campaign managers whether or not to speak to the press immediately after nominating convention. During last year’s campaign season, the executive slate Cardinal United was fined within $1 of the $500 disqualification limit for charges that were later dropped.

Concerns were voiced about setting fine limits and the power of the elections board, but these were not addressed in the final changes this year. “I know our elections board last year didn’t always make the best decisions, but this year we are looking to have our advisor [at those meetings],” France said. “Putting specific fine limits for specific actions wasn’t something we wanted to do because it’s hard to predict what will happen.” France said in her four years on SGA, she has seen comprehensive changes focused on cleaning up and defining the elections code. Also during the SGA meeting, the elections board put together by elections chairperson Alex Sventeckis was approved by a senate vote. Packets for the nominating convention are due to the SGA office on Feb. 7 and nominating convention will be held on Feb. 10 at 7 p.m.

HJR-3: All Republicans on committee support proposal | CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 The ban won the support of all the committee’s Republicans, but at least one cautioned that his support could hinge on changes to the measure. “I was willing to bring it to the floor, and when it comes to the floor we’ll take a look at it then,” said Rep. Casey Cox (R-Fort Wayne). Cox said he would like to remove a sentence from the amendment that likely bans civil unions and could ban employer benefits for same-sex couples. A shift in public attitudes and a strong organized effort from opponents in the state’s business and higher education communities have

caused many lawmakers to reconsider their support for the amendment. Ball State spoke out against the proposed ban Nov. 15. The Muncie City Council followed suit, voting to oppose HJR-3 unanimously on Jan. 13. Opponents of the ban, led by the group Freedom Indiana, again outnumbered supporters at the second hearing. Activists wore red clothes and waved their hands in the air silently, instead of clapping during testimony. Opponents of the amendment relied on business leaders again Wednesday to lay out their argument. Executives for engine-maker Cummins and pharmaceutical giant Eli Lilly have said such

an amendment could make it difficult to recruit talent from around the world. Marya Rose, general counsel with Columbus-based Cummins, on Wednesday sought to discredit testimony from supporters who were flown in from out of state. “For some reason I feel compelled to let you know I am a lifelong Hoosier,” she said, to laughs from opponents of the measure. Democrats on the House elections committee complained of the short notice they received from Bosma that the measure would be taken up Wednesday afternoon. The panel planned to vote on the ban after Wednesday’s hearing.

PURDUE: Peers, friends remember victim as ‘phenomenal young man’ with heart | CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 Schneller, a sophomore majoring in women’s, gender and sexuality studies, said she was upset classes weren’t immediately canceled after the all-clear, but appreciated the day to recuperate. “I feel silly being not really OK, but at the same time, it was a scary experience,” she said. A few hours after the shooting, Schneller, Barton and the rest of the Purduettes sang as part of a vigil in Boldt’s honor. “We shouldn’t be afraid of what happened, we should all stand together,” Barton said. Today, students return to campus. As Barton said, Purdue is resilient.

Ball State dining gives extra food to local charities University donates 20 tons of surplus to Muncie shelters ALAN HOVORKA CHIEF REPORTER | afhovorka@bsu.edu Ball State donated almost 20 tons of food last year, but this is considered an insignificant number. Director of Campus Dining Services Jon Lewis said the size of the group of people the university serves allows for more surplus, which can be donated. “We’re going to have a more considerable amount of food because we are the biggest food service in Delaware County,” Lewis said. “A restaurant like McDonald’s is not going to be able to provide like we do.” Across campus, seven of the eleven dining areas donate food to charities including the Muncie Mission Ministry, A Better Way Incorporated and the Harvest Soup Kitchen. Elliott Dining, LaFollette Square, Noyer Centre, Tally Food Court, University Food Court, University Catering and Woodworth Commons all give away their extra food. Woodworth contributed the most last year with 17,109 lbs., almost half of the overall university amount. Lewis said the food donated has to be wholesome, unserved and properly kept at storage temperatures. These circumstances exempt some food from being donated, which must then be trashed. University Dining Services throws their food away based on time as a Public Health Control system. In other words, dining halls take the temperature of the food at the beginning of breakfast, lunch and dinner and throw it out after a certain time has passed. This food can’t be donated. This system ensures freshness because of the large amount of food the university serves. Examining the food tray by tray is

impractical, Liz Poore, assistant director of operations for Ball State dining said. Not all food gets thrown out. Poore said foods such as soups, chili and casseroles are great for being made into leftovers, but fried foods such as breakfast foods and grilled cheese aren’t. John Clark director of the Muncie Mission Ministry said his organization often has a greater need for food donated by the university because it serves 45 to 100 residents on a daily basis. Clark said Ball State calls once or twice a week to donate food. “Ball State calls us especially at times when school is closing for break,” he said. “We’ll come get a lot of produce and milk, stuff that would go bad.” Produce tends to be donated more because it is the most susceptible to spoiling, Poore said. The Men’s Mission served 82,300 meals last year. They serve breakfast, lunch and dinner and provide a public lunch to everyone. Sometimes these charities receive more than they need and freely give their excess food to other local organizations, said Teresa Clemmons Executive Director of A Better Way Inc.

« We shouldn’t be afraid of what happened, we should all stand together. » AMY BARTON, a Purdue sophomore psychology major teaching assistant at the university. His LinkedIn profile says he spent two summers interning for John Deere in Silvis, Ill., and planned to graduate in May. Jean Morrell, Boldt’s calculus teacher at Milwaukee’s Marquette University High School, recalled how Boldt often stayed after class to talk about math concepts and robotics. The two also discussed his dream to attend Purdue, which is Morrell’s alma mater. “Andrew Boldt was a young

man who had the potential to make the world a better place,” Morrell said. “He was a phenomenal young man. He had a great mind, but he also had a great heart. I’m just sad he won’t get an opportunity to realize his dreams, to make his contribution to the world.” Rev. Warren Sazama, the president of Boldt’s high school, said the family was in shock. “The mother said, ‘You don’t expect to get up in the morning and expect your son to be one in a million for a tragedy like this,’” he said.

Legislators in Indianapolis voted to move HJR-3 forward to the General Assembly and closer to the public

WE DETERMINE THE LAWS BY WHICH WE LIVE House Joint Resolution 3 passed through a House Elections Committee late Wednesday evening. Of course, it did. We arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t surprised at all. By passing this committee, the resolution will move on to the General Assembly. If it moves forward from the General Assembly, it will move to a ballot in November, where the Indiana public will vote directly whether or not to constitutionally ban gay marriage and civil unions offering similar benefits. This is an intelligent move for a politician. By passing this vote, our elected officials get to say, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I never voted for or against a constitutional ban â&#x20AC;&#x201D; I voted to allow

the public to vote.â&#x20AC;? Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a giant, political game of hot potato. In voting to pass this decision to the public, representatives remind us of a simple, often forgotten fact: we are responsible for the laws to which we abide. Too often, people sit idly as elected officials make decisions about the lives of the public. We complain when legislation passes a bill we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t like, forgetting we are the people bestowing power upon these officials, and more importantly, forgetting that we elect them to listen to our voices. We are the ones who choose not to write letters or call offices. In the 2012 General Election, only about 58

percent of Indianaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s registered voters even cast their ballots. More than 6.5 million people live in Indiana, according to the Census Bureau. That means there are more than 6.5 million voices in Indiana. It is important these voices are heard. With HJR-3, the responsibility may once more be thrust upon the public.

the economic effects? Who would it hurt, and who would it help? What does HJR-3 mean to you and the people in your life? It is still not known whether Hoosiers will get a chance to directly vote on HJR-3. That does not mean that we can let these debates happen in the statehouse alone. It is time that we take part in the discussions that dictate our laws. It is time that we involve ourselves in organizations aligned with our beliefs. It is time that we contact our elected officials and let them hear our voices. It is time that we, as citizens of Indiana, fully engage in the processes that shape our society. No more hot potato.
