Political science professor Cyanne Loyle is set to research in Norway.
BY ALYSSA LAZAR STAFF WRITER @DAILYATHENAEUM
West Virginia University political science assistant professor Cyanne Loyle has been selected to receive a Fulbright grant from the United States Fulbright Scholar Program, which will allow her to travel to Norway to complete research regarding international conflict resolutions. Loyle will work at the Peace Research Institute in Oslo in order to finish a project with other researchers about incorporating transitional justice during conflict that may produce a quicker resolution. “Transitional justice processes have often been touted as a means to prevent violence from erupting again after a civil war has ended, yet little work has been undertaken to understand the prevalence of these practices while conflict is ongoing,” Loyle said. Loyle will use a global, cross-national dataset of the use of transitional justice during ongoing armed conflict between the period of 1946 and 2011. She will also use specific field research from Uganda, Sudan and Nepal to examine the type of justice processes governments use during armed conflicts and whether they were successful. The grant benefits Loyle by funding the travel costs and living expenses while in Norway. She will leave in August and spend the fall semester in Norway. She will return with researched data, academic articles and case study information. Not only does Loyle foresee the grant helping her research but also
relations with the Peace Research Institute Oslo (PRIO). “This will lay the groundwork for future research collaborations,” Loyle said. Loyle will bring back her research findings and what she has learned in Norway to the WVU classroom. “This research opportunity will enrich my teaching on both the undergraduate and graduate levels,” she said. At WVU, Loyle teaches an undergraduate course called Transitional Justice and Human Rights. Students will directly benefit from the research and experiences Loyle will gain while in Norway because of the material the class covers. Her graduate students will benefit from the relations Loyle will foster with PRIO and will expose them to the various benefits of international research. In 2008, Loyle was a visiting scholar at the Peace Institute in Oslo. Beyond her experience in Oslo, Loyle was also a visiting researcher at the Kroc Institute for International Peace Studies at the University of Notre Dame. Loyle is a published researcher with her works appearing with the Social Science Research Council, Journal of Peace Research, International Interactions, International Journal of Conflict and Violence, Genocide Studies and Prevention and Global Public Health. Her current research about justice during conflict has been funded by the National Science Foundation. To learn more about her research visit http:// cyanneloyle.com. danewsroom@mail.wvu.edu

WVU National Youth Sports Program kicks off summer camp for local students BY ALEXIS RANDOLPH STAFF WRITER @DAILYATHENAEUM
West Virginia University’s National Youth Sports Program kicked off its four-week summer camp Monday at the WVU Shell Building. The camp, which has been going on for 27 years, gives children ages 10-16 the chance to get active and learn new sports and skills. The camp will run through July 18 and has open enrollment for all students who have had physicals performed. Mary Wolk, coordinator for the NYSP program, said the camp provides a good mix for the children. “We aren’t just focused on one certain sport, so they get to try many different things,” Wolk said. “Sometimes, there are things they have never done before. They get to try it, and they really like it.” Children are split into groups where they participate in two sports daily as well as complete an enrichment activity, eat lunch and snacks and have free time to get to know fellow campers. Wolk said kids come back year after year and really enjoy their time at the camp. “I hear time and time again from kids who have participated in the camp how much fun it is and about the friendships that they have made,” Wolk said. “Oftentimes, I hire students who have participated in the camp to be camp coun-
Two friends partner up for drills at camp. selors. It is kind of neat to see that since it has been around for so long.” In recent years, the camp has faced trouble with finding the funds to keep the camp free and available for students. Having lost federal funding, the program relies heavily on the WVU Foundation for donations to keep the camp running. “Fortunately, we do have quite a bit of support from the University community, as well as the Morgantown community, and we were able to hold the camp this summer,” she said. “Since 2006, the federal funding has dried up, so Dean Brookes and the College of Physical Activity and Sports Sciences has really had to work at trying to maintain the financial end of it.” Wolk said she hopes to see the camp around in the future so that it may continue to benefit both the Morgantown and WVU community.

“I was glad to see we were able to continue the program for this year, and I hope I continue to see the program for at least a few years so we won’t have to end it,” Wolk said. Andrea Rush, enrichment coordinator for NYSP, said the camp is a great way to engage children and keep them active in the summer. “It is just to get kids active instead of just sitting and being sedentary over the summer,” Rush said. “They are introduced to sports they may not have had in the classroom at school. This provides them with new opportunities to learn, grow and maybe even develop some skills.” Rush said it is a great way for her to stay engaged with the community, as well. “It is just a fantastic way for me as a school teacher to stay connected. I still get to work with the students of Monongalia County,” Rush
said. “Students can come in at any time they want to.” All campers are required to participate in each activity, encouraging them to learn and try new things. Rush said this helps the campers find new skills and learn outside of their comfort zone. “Students come back year after year and have really grown in their abilities. I see students going outside of their comfort zone that haven’t really done a lot of sports, and they start coming here and realizing they can do these things,” she said. “It is so great to see that self-confidence – that attitude where they can go outside of their comfort zone and try something new with a little bit of practice.” To learn more about the NSYP camp or to donate visit http://nysp.wvu.edu. danewsroom@mail.wvu.edu
Department of Sociology and Anthropology prepares to open Center on Research and Violence BY HANNAH WIGAL STAFF WRITER @DAILYATHENAEUM
The West Virginia University Department of Sociology and Anthropology will open the Center on Research and Violence beginning in the fall semester. The WVU Center on Research and Violence will organize seminars and presentations that will be open to all students and community membersw. There are 27 research associates that will be working on various projects, helping develop policies and inform government agencies and non-profit organizations of the re-
search findings regarding violence. The research associates are not paid employees through the University. However, they still wish to be associated with the research taking place at WVU. The research associates will be working alongside six faculty members from the WVU Department of Sociology and Anthropology and will be evaluating issues including violence broadly defined, interpersonal violence and crimes against the environment. Dr. Walter DeKeseredy has spent a large portion of his life studying violence and will serve as the director of the WVU Center on

DeKeseredy said the center was an exciting place to be, and he missed his days at the violence center at York because he was intellectually stimulated and very well connected with the community. “It was always my dream to become a faculty member and attempt to replicate that center and make one that’s even better,” he said. DeKeseredy began his work at WVU in January. However, he has been a professor for 25 years and said WVU has a group of exciting dynamic re-

DeKeseredy said he has received phenomenal support from his colleagues at the University, and he’s happy to be working with people with similar interests and goals. “I feel like a member of a family here,” he said. “It makes me excited. I drive a lot of energy from WVU.” DeKeseredy said the WVU Center on Violence and Research will give WVU even more esteem and notoriety and will enhance the fine reputation
of the school. “I think this will give WVU much visibility,” he said. The WVU Center on Research and Violence will be expanding in the future to enhance the center website, make linkages and contacts with research centers at other universities and publish a quarterly newsletter that will highlight research, faculty and student achievements.

Summer students celebrate state’s 151st birthday at E. Moore Hall BY alexis Randolph Staff Writer @DAILYATHENAEUM
The state of West Virginia celebrated its 151st birthday Friday. In honor of this June 20 birthday, members of the West Virginia University community came together to hold a birthday party. Held in Elizabeth Moore Hall on the downtown campus, the party featured birthday cake and punch for students and faculty to enjoy. The party also featured a West Virginia trivia game and cookie decorating contest. This program followed the success of West Virignia’s 150th birthday party last summer. “We celebrated last year for West Virginia’s 150th birthday, and that was a big deal,” said Erin Blake, special event coordinator for the Mountainlair. “So, this year, when we were doing our summer planning again, we thought it went so great, we wanted to do it again.” The West Virginia trivia game featured a variety of facts about the state. Students could spin a wheel and land on categories such as WVU sports or West Virginia ghost stories. After answering the trivia questions, students could pick from a variety of prizes such as WVU Tshirts and frisbees. Prizes for the event were donated from several different WVU departments. Blake said events like this help to display state pride and spread knowledge of the state. “We like to have things like this because it is another way of showing our state pride, especially for people who are from another state or another country who may not be as familiar with West Virginia, just

Attendees also were invited to participate in a cookie decorating contest. Contestants were given decorating supplies and were asked to decorate a cookie in the shape of the state of WV. The top three received West Virginiathemed prizes. “It’s another way for us to engage students so they aren’t just going to class. We want to help them feel connected and stay connected to the University,” Blake said. “It gives them a little break.” Heath Bolyard, a junior business management student, said he had a great
time at the birthday party. “E. Moore Hall is a beautiful hall. I like where it is located,” Bolyard said. “A lot of people are interacting with one another, and a lot of people are getting a little more information about West Virignia. We are having a good time.” Bolyard said he was impressed by the great food and prizes. The event was a great place to relax, he said. “They had some really good prizes. I actually got a shirt for my dad,” he said. “You wouldn’t get stressed out coming here because it is very relaxed, students can interact with one another if they want, but they don’t have to. They could
just people watch.” Riley Stevens, a senior chemical engineering student, said she came out after a big exam to help her de-stress. “We took a really hard test today, so some free cake sounded really nice,” Stevens said. “I’ve never been in here. I am a STEM major, so I never get to go in the pretty buildings, but it is really nice.” Stevens said programs like this are great for students who don’t get much of a summer break. “I think it is nice because there are a lot of kids who take summer classes, and they work hard,” Stevens said. “It is nice that the Uni-

Sunni extremists inching closer to Baghdad, Iraqi Prime Minister ready to defend BAGHDAD (AP) — Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki is ready to concede, at least temporarily, the loss of much of Iraq to Sunni insurgents and is instead deploying the military’s besttrained and equipped troops to defend Baghdad, Iraqi officials told The Associated Press Tuesday. Shiite militias responding to a call to arms by Iraq’s top cleric also are focused on protecting the capital and Shiite shrines, while Kurdish fighters have grabbed a long-coveted oil-rich city outside their self-ruled territory, ostensibly to defend it from the al-Qaida breakaway group. With each sect focused on self-interests, the situation on the ground is increasingly looking like the fractured state the Americans have hoped to avoid. “We are facing a new reality and a new Iraq,” the top Kurdish leader, Massoud Barzani, told U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry on Tuesday in Irbil, capital of the self-ruled Kurdish region in northern Iraq. Two weeks after a series of disastrous battlefield setbacks in the north and west, al-Maliki is struggling to devise an effective strategy to repel the relentless advances by militants of the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant, a well-trained and mobile force thought to have some 10,000 fighters inside Iraq. The response by government forces has so far been far short of a counteroffensive, restricted mostly to areas where Shiites are in danger of falling prey to the Sunni extremists or around a major Shiite shrine north of Baghdad. These weaknesses were highlighted when the government tried but failed to retake Tal Afar, a mixed Shiite-Sunni city of some 200,000 that sits strategically
near the Syrian border. The government claimed it had retaken parts of the city but the area remains under the control of the militants after a battle in which some 30 volunteers and troops were killed. Government forces backed by helicopter gunships have also fought for a week to defend Iraq’s largest oil refinery in Beiji, north of Baghdad, where a top military official said Tuesday that Sunni militants were regrouping for another push to capture the sprawling facility. In the face of militant advances that have virtually erased Iraq’s western border with Syria and captured territory on the frontier with Jordan, al-Maliki’s focus has been the defense of Baghdad, a majority Shiite city of 7 million fraught with growing tension. The city’s Shiites fear they could be massacred and the revered al-Kazimiyah shrine destroyed if Islamic State fighters capture Baghdad. Sunni residents also fear the extremists, as well as Shiite militiamen in the city, who they worry could turn against them. The militants have vowed to march to Baghdad and the holy Shiite cities of Najaf and Karbala, a threat that prompted the nation’s top Shiite cleric, Grand Ayatollah Ali al-Sistani, to issue an urgent call to arms that has resonated with young Shiite men. The military’s besttrained and equipped forces have been deployed to bolster Baghdad’s defenses, aided by U.S. intelligence on the militants’ movements, according to the Iraqi officials, who are close to alMaliki’s inner circle and spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss such sensitive issues. The number of troops
normally deployed in Baghdad has doubled, they said, but declined to give a figure. Significant numbers are defending the Green Zone, the sprawling area on the west bank of the Tigris River that is home to al-Maliki’s office, as well as the U.S. Embassy. “Al-Maliki is tense. He is up working until 4 a.m. every day. He angrily ordered staff at his office to stop watching TV news channels hostile to his government,” one of the officials said. The struggle has prompted the Obama administration to send hundreds of troops back into Iraq, nearly three years after the American military withdrew. The Pentagon said Tuesday that nearly half of the roughly 300 U.S. advisers and special operations forces are now on the ground in Baghdad, where they have begun to assess the Iraqi forces and the fight against Sunni militants. Another four teams of special forces will arrive in days, bringing the total to nearly 200. Rear Adm. John Kirby, the Pentagon spokesman, also said the U.S. is conducting up to 35 surveillance missions daily over Iraq to provide intelligence as Iraqi troops battle the aggressive and fast-moving insurgency. About 90 of the U.S. troops are setting up a joint operations center in Baghdad. Iraqi officials said the U.S. advisers were expected to focus on the better units the Americans had closely worked with before pulling out. Iraq’s best-trained and equipped force is a 10,000-strong outfit once nicknamed the “dirty division” that fought alongside the Americans for years against Sunni extremists and Shiite militiamen.
Now it is stretched thin, with many of its men deployed in the vast Anbar province in a months-long standoff with Sunni militants who have since January controlled a city 30 miles (50 kilometers) west of Baghdad. The focus on Baghdad, rather than recapturing the vast Sunni areas to the west and north, has been subtly conveyed to the media in daily briefings by chief military spokesman Lt. Gen. Qassim al-Moussawi. He has in recent days shifted from boilerplate assurances that the military is on the offensive to something less confident. “Withdrawals from anywhere to another location does not mean defeat or that we permanently left an area,” he said Monday. “It is a battlefield, and the fight includes going forward and backward and regrouping.” The Iraqi military, rife with corruption and torn by conflicting loyalties, lacks adequate air cover for its ground troops and armor, with the nation’s infant air force operating two Cessna aircraft capable of firing U.S.-made Hellfire missiles. That leaves the army air wing of helicopter gunships stretched and overworked. While Iraq’s security forces number a whopping 1.1 million, with 700,000 in the police and the rest in the army, corruption, desertion and sectarian divisions have been a major problem. With a monthly salary of $700 for newly enlisted men, the forces have attracted many young Iraqis who would otherwise be unemployed. Once in, some bribe commanders so they can stay home and take a second job, lamented the officials. Al-Maliki’s effort to bolster the defense of the capital coincides with Iraq’s worst crisis since the 2011 withdrawal of U.S. forces,
Sunni extremists continue capturing towns throughout Iraq. with the nation facing a serious danger of splitting up into warring Sunni, Shiite and Kurdish enclaves. The declaration by Barzani, the Kurdish leader, of a “new Iraq,” was a thinly veiled reference to the newly won Kurdish control of the oil-rich city of Kirkuk, which the Kurds have long sought to incorporate into their self-rule region. Control of Kirkuk and Kurdish pockets in Diyala province and elsewhere have been at the heart of tension between the Kurdish region and the Baghdad government, and the Kurds are unlikely to want to give up that territory regardless of the status of the fighting. Al-Maliki, who has no military background but gets the final say on major battlefield decisions, has looked to hundreds of thousands of Shiite volunteers who joined the security forces as the best hope to repel the Islamic State’s offensive. While giving the conflict a sectarian slant - the overwhelming majority are Shiites - the volunteers have also been a logistical headache as the army tries to clothe, feed and arm them. Furthermore, their inexperience means they will not

be combat ready for weeks, even months. Still, some were sent straight to battle, with disastrous consequences. New details about the fight for Tal Afar - the first attempt to retake a major city from the insurgents - underscore the challenges facing the Iraqi security forces. Scores of young volunteers disembarked last week at an airstrip near the isolated northern city and headed straight to battle, led by an army unit. The volunteers and the accompanying troops initially staved off advances by the militants, but were soon beaten back, according to military officials. They took refuge in the airstrip, but the militants shelled the facility so heavily the army unit pulled out, leaving 150 panicking volunteers to fend for themselves, said the officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak to the media. The ill-fated expedition – at least 30 volunteers and troops were killed and the rest of the recruits remain stranded at the airstrip – does not bode well for alMaliki’s declared plan to make them the backbone of Iraq’s future army.

Mundy’s Public House offers alternative to Morgantown’s nightlife by jake jarvis A&E editor @jakejarviswvu
Everyone has their “spot.” Your “spot” is the place you come back to every weekend. Some choose Jameson’s, some choose Gibbie’s and some choose The Sports Page. Mundy’s Public House, owned and operated by Eric Brown, is the spot for people looking for an interactive experience away from the typical downtown Morgantown scene. “What places like Mundy’s do for the nightlife scene is give people an alternative to downtown,” Brown said. “You can still go see live music and have a good beer selection without having to fight through the crowds and the vomit on the streets. It’s a nice, safe place to go.” Brown went on to say the crowd is mostly graduate students from the surrounding neighborhood. The building has been around since 1949 when the original owner converted his home into a bar. Since then, the bar has gone through many different owners, each bringing a different focus. Brown purchased the establish-
ment just over a year ago and reopened last July. Brown took out the gambling machines that used to be there and built a stage for live performances. In addition, Brown wanted to focus on bringing a wider array of beer selections. “At any time, I have about 100 beers from around the world,” Brown said. “Our selection changes all the time based on seasons.” Depending on when you go, you might see beers from Germany or Belgium on tap. “It’s not usual for a bar in Morgantown to have a beer selection quite this big,” Brown said. New to Mundy’s selection is a beer from the Big Timber Brewing Company located in Elkins, West Virginia. Besides the drinks, Mundy’s hopes to keep customers entertained with live performances. Bands like Haggard Wulf, Weedhawks and Barracuda frequently play here. Also, on the first and third Thursday of every month, Mundy’s has an open mic night hosted by Timothy Taylor from Barracuda. “He actually sets ups amps, a monitor and a drum kit for people to use
and has instruments for people to use,” Brown said. But don’t worry if you’re not musically inclined, as Mundy’s welcomes all kinds of performances. Brown said poetry readings, stand up comedy and even puppet shows are welcomed to the stage. Brown also has a full bookshelf of mostly donated books for people to read during their visit. If reading doesn’t sound like fun, pick up a game controller and play one of the free video games on Mundy’s largest television. “The night I put in the video games, I had two tables full of people playing Mario Kart and Cards Against Humanity at the same time,” Brown said. The goal with all of this is to encourage people to interact with each other, not to just “sit there and get drunk.” Mundy’s Public House is located at 669 Madigan Ave. It’s open from 3 p.m. – 2 a.m. everyday, closing at 1 a.m. on Saturday. Mundy’s is closed on Sundays. Visit Mundy’s Facebook page for more information about upcoming musical acts. jajarvis@mail.wvu.edu

Miss Lonely Hearts, others perform at 123 Oldman defends Gibson AP

Miss Lonely Hearts was the headliners Friday night at 123 Pleasant Street.
nicole curtin A&E Writer @dailyathenaeum
The night started off with wet shoes – not a great way to arrive at 123 Pleasant Street. The end of the night had me smiling and tapping my foot. But the kinds of bands that usually play there are not my style, and I anticipated the same kind of result on the evening of June 20th. But I was wrong. The show started up with openers The Smug Brothers, from Dayton, Ohio. It was their first time playing in this state, and it was fitting that their performance fell on West Virginia’s birthday. The generally small crowd definitely liked them. Smug Brothers played a variety of music including two
songs off of their new EP, “On the Way to the Punchline.” Their songs were great and reminded me of music that would play in the typical high school movie. Smug Brothers had a nice flow, vocals and sound. I really liked watching them perform.Lead singer of the Smug Brothers, Kyle Melton, said the group really enjoyed performing at 123 and wants to come back to the area to perform. “We had a great time, and the audience was very great,” Melton said. “The venue is excellent, and we’re very grateful to Phantom Six for having us out,.” “We’d like to come back through the east coast again in the fall. I think Morgantown is very fortunate to have such an exceptional venue. Being from Dayton, we have a lot of venues, but this is a great
rock venue. It’s suited to the music and it’s good for the listeners and performers.” Up next was The Phantom Six, who seems to be a regular at 123 as many people came out to see them. They definitely had a different sound from The Smug Brothers and were very upbeat. The crowd started to grow and was swaying along to the tunes as they played songs like “About Love,” “Plastic Rain” and “Scenes Like This.” Susanne Reynolds of Morgantown came out to listen to the bands for some new music. “It was really great,” Reynolds said. “There were bands I hadn’t heard before. I thought I would check them out, and they were amazing.” With her was another local resident, Beth Staley, who also thought the groups per-
formed well. “What better way to celebrate West Virginia’s birthday than with a band like Phantom Six, which is made up of amazing, West Virginian musicians,” Staley said. Last up was the headliner, Miss Lonely Hearts, a band out of Frederick, Maryland. They performed many of their older tunes, as the group had just gotten back together in 2013. The band came on stage with a lot of energy and went right into playing songs like “The First Barrage” and “Bits and Pieces.” Overall, the bands put on a great show. The music wasn’t too hard rock sounding for someone who usually would not go there. Although the crowd was pretty small, everyone enjoyed themselves. daa&e@mail.wvu.edu
NEW YORK (AP) — Gary Oldman is defending fellow actors Mel Gibson and Alec Baldwin from critics of their comments on Jews and homosexuals, saying people need to take a joke. Oldman’s manager, in a statement issued Tuesday as the actor’s expletiveladen interview with Playboy began getting attention, said Oldman was criticizing hypocrisy and finds any kind of bigotry unacceptable and disgraceful. During his interview, Oldman decried the “political correctness” that ensnared the two actors. Gibson delivered an antiSemitic rant in 2006 while being arrested for drunk driving, and he later apologized. Baldwin last year was accused of using an antigay slur in a New York City street confrontation. Oldman said that Gibson “got drunk and said a few things, but we’ve all said those things. We’re all (expletive) hypocrites.” He said he didn’t blame Baldwin for using the slur because somebody bothered him. “Mel Gibson is in a town that’s run by Jews and he said the wrong thing because he’s actually bitten the hand that I guess has fed him, and doesn’t need to feed him anymore because he’s got enough dough,” Oldman said in the interview. He urged the Playboy in-
terviewer to “edit and cut half of what I’ve said, because it’s going to make me sound like a bigot.” He said he’s not a bigot, “but I’m defending all the wrong people. I’m saying Mel’s all right, Alec’s a good guy.” Douglas Urbanski, Oldman’s longtime manager, said in an emailed statement to The Associated Press on Tuesday that Oldman was not defending his fellow actors, despite Oldman’s comment in the article that he was indeed defending the actors. “It simply cannot be read any other way, and to put it any other way is simply cherry picking something, stating it inaccurately, and creating news where there is none,” Urbanski said. He said Oldman was “illustrating the absurd by being absurd.” Oldman stars in the upcoming “Dawn of the Planet of the Apes,” out July 11. Distributor 20th Century Fox declined to comment on Oldman’s Playboy remarks. Oldman also appears in a TV commercial for HTC mobile phones, which sought to distance itself Tuesday from the actor’s remarks. “Mr. Oldman’s views are his own and do not reflect the views of HTC,” the company said in a statement to the AP.

Net neutrality: What it is and why you should care Although the current notion to end net neutrality isn’t on the tip of everyone’s tongue and may even be a foreign concept for many, there has been much debate in the past few months concerning such. Ending net neutrality is basically the concept of cable companies wanting bigger corporations with Internet presence, like Google and Facebook, to pay more
for faster internet, practically holding the corporations hostage for their money. This also puts a damper on start-up corporations because of affordability issues, and, in turn, creating a two-tier system. This system would comprise of corporations in the fast lane or the slow lane, or as the cable companies are trying to so elegantly put it, “a fast lane for everybody and a hyperspeed lane for
others,” said telecommunications lawyer, George Foote. In February 2014, Comcast and Netflix teamed up and the Netflix download speed through Comcast skyrocketed, providing clear evidence of a breech in the Telecommunications Act of 1996, stating that all data has to be treated equally, no matter who creates it. And according to Bloomberg,
May 8 Comcast spent almost $18,810,000 in lobbying in the past year- second in spending to Northrop Grumman. Google, Amazon and Facebook have all signed proposals for net neutrality. So how exactly is this happening if everyone is so against it? Cable companies, such as Verizon, want this twotiered system so much that they have sued the govern-
ment to force the current discussion of the net neutrality rule change. These cable companies are monopolizing and there’s absolutely no reduction in competition because most companies aren’t competing with each other within the United States. The U.S. pays more than most other countries for internet service and still produces lower downloading speeds than countries like
the United Kingdom, Estonia, Germany and Israel. And to top it all off, Obama has recently chosen Tom Wheeler, a former top lobbyist for cable and wireless companies to be the next chair of the Federal Communications Commission. So, America, what can you do to “keep the internet free?” Write to your government representatives about the issue.

Major-market internships aren’t necessary for major carlee lammers columnist
This summer, I am spending my time away from Morgantown interning at a newspaper back home. I’m not in New York City, I’m not in Washington D.C. and I’m not in Chicago. I’m in Hagerstown, Maryland, and
it’s one of the best things to have happened to me. I think, especially in journalism, everyone wants a highly coveted spot at a major network or newspaper. But when it comes down to it, that’s not the reality for most. While an internship with ESPN, CNN or The Washington Post would certainly be a great experi-
ence, I’ve gained so much – if not more—in my short two and a half weeks in Hagerstown. My first day on the job, I got to participate in editorial meetings. The editors valued my opinions and encouraged me to share my ideas. I’ve already gotten to cover breaking news, and am working alongside long-time professionals who have so much to offer
students. And, I’m trying new things that go beyond what’s taught in the classroom at WVU. It’s very clear that I’m part of the team there. I’ve not once been asked to run and get coffee, nor have I done busy work. I’m doing exactly what I want to do after graduation, and gaining real-world experience 20 minutes from the comfort of my parents’
house. Some of my fellow WVU students have landed summer jobs and internships in large markets, and I think that’s wonderful. I know they have worked incredibly hard to get there and get to work with some of the best in the business. But, I don’t think smaller markets should be overlooked. You don’t need to work at the best net-
work, the best firm or in the best office. You need to work where it’s best for you. Sometimes we, and even our colleges, overlook that. Sure, an internship in NYC would be a great resume booster, but we don’t always have to wander too far for experiences just as impactful. daperspectives@mail.wvu.edu

Tiny houses provide alternative to a materialistic society jake jarvis a&e editor @jakejarviswvu
As I resign the lease to my three bedroom apartment at The Lofts, I dream of the house that I will one day live in. Housing options in Morgantown range from a sleazy house to a modern apartment complex. According to Trulia.com, the average listing price for a home in Morgantown is about $280,000, with each square foot going for about $115. College graduates look at this number and their hearts quicken. Throw in student loans, car payments, insurance and other daily needs and buying a house is an unwanted financial stress on many lives. But still, after graduating from college, top on my list of “things to do to be an adult” is buying a house. Fortunately, the new phenomenon of tiny houses is coming into public awareness and presenting itself as a worthwhile alternative. Tiny houses are living spaces that are typically under 600 square feet total. They come equipped with almost all the amenities you’d enjoy in a large home. In many cases, inhabit-
ants opt to go “off the grid” and produce their own electricity and water, allowing a sense of freedom. Crystal and Andrew Odom run the Tiny Revolution blog, found at http://tinyrevolution.us, and live in a 240 sq. ft. home. The budget for the house they built themselves was just under $10,000, and as we see chronicled in the blog, the couple seems to love the experience. In the movie, “Tiny: A Story About Living Small,” audiences get to see the perspective of different people who have chosen this life. Some are single, some are couples but all of them are happy with their decision. Before you say, “that’s not for me,” let’s look at the realities of what living in a tiny house would be. For starters, my biggest fear is that I’d get cabin fever and go a bit crazy within the small walls. After a long weekend shut up in my apartment I’m ready to never set foot back into my room. But this is part of the appeal of a tiny house. Someone once told me, “a good house has an outside that draws you in and an inside that draws out.” As much as I’m a homebody, I enjoy

spending time away from my apartment and on the go. With the money saved from buying a lavish house, tiny house owners can afford to travel across the country and even around the world. A part of the “American dream” is to own a nice big house with a picket fence, a pool, a two door garage and a big back yard. So to achieve this, we sacrifice our financial well-being for
what we think will impress people. Still, one of the greatest challenges I can imagine myself facing is: where do I put all my clothes? I’m ashamed to admit that my closet is already busting open with garments I rarely, if ever, wear. I keep them “just in case.” But it’s this kind of materialism that tiny houses fight against. Why do we need so much stuff? It feels comfortable
to think that my wardrobe is full and I can find anything I would ever need in there. And yet each time I get dressed, I have nothing to wear. This method of collecting but never using continues into all areas of my life – and it’s getting old. My apartment is too large. It’s great for a party now and then, but it’s just too much space. I have too much stuff. I’m broke. All of these facts
are pointing me in the direction of tiny houses. No, I probably won’t immediately move into a tiny house after graduating, but it’s on my radar of choices. Hearing stories of the Odom family inspires me to question the way I live my life. No matter what I choose, I plan to not let materialism and the “American dream” get in the way. jajarvis@mail.wvu.edu

17 alternative ways to save money in college and beyond alex strike new york university
Being a college student is not very cheap, especially if you do not work yet but spend all your time on studying. Saving some money seems very difficult and even impossible sometimes, as you still need some food, transportation, clothes and many other things for your student life. Your parents help you, of course. But wouldn’t it be better to find any alternative ways to save some money on living in college? If you agree with this statement, then you should definitely check and like the tips given below. So, you need to save money for: Your food. Every student will agree with the fact that the process of eating is very enjoyable. Students do not mind having a snack or trying something new and delicious, but they
DA

perfectly understand this food can be quite expensive as well. How can you save money for food? Say “no” to coffee shops, even if you can’t imagine your day without coffee. It will be less expensive to buy your own coffee once and make a coffee drink yourself. Many students like pizza. Invite your friends to spend a pizza evening with you; ask them to bring some ingredients, and cook this pizza together. First, it will be less expensive, and second, this is a perfect chance to spend good time with friends. Student life is always full of different interesting events, where free food is usually served. Do not be shy to visit them. Students enjoy parties, and all those empty cans and bottles left after parties can be successfully recycled. Just give them to special stores and get some money from it. Try to ignore shops and markets when you are hungry. Big chances are that you will spend all of your money

on things you do not actually need. Your clothes. Do not be an impulsive buyer. It is not easy of course, especially if you are a girl, but try to control yourself and do not buy clothes if you understand that you do not need it. Be practical, and do not hesitate using some shopping websites for students, where you can find many cool but
not expensive things to pay attention to. If you still think of second-hand clothing stores as something bad or unworthy, it’s high time to change your mind. Many good and stylish things can be found there, and the most pleasant thing about all of this is the fact that you can buy clothes for almost free. You can always sell some
clothes to your friends or other people and get extra money on buying new things. And even if you consider those T-shirts or skirts your favorite ones, be brave enough to admit that you do not need them if you bought them 5 years ago and did not wear them since then. Your transportation. Are you sure you need a car? You can always use a bike instead. If you still can’t live without your car, you always can save some money for it. For example, turn your air conditioning off to save some gas. Have you ever thought of a bus as an alternative to your car? It is not free of course, but it is definitely cheaper than a car. Moreover, you do not have to drive it, so you can relax and just enjoy your way to college. Your house. Do not wash your clothes every day. It does not mean you should look and stay dirty, but it will be enough
for your jeans if you wash them once a week. You can save electricity as well. Think of renting a room or apartment with other people; you will share all expenses together. Students are usually so romantic. What do you think of using candles in the evenings? This is a great way to create a romantic atmosphere and save money for electricity. Your entertainment. Visit different local festivals and other events; the schedules are easy to find on the Internet. Can’t find anything interesting? You can always organize your own flash mob and invite other students to take part in it. Do not ignore parks. As far as you remember, they are free to visit. Do not go to cinemas every time when a new movie comes out. You can rent a DVD and watch it at home with your friends, or check out the top 5 TV shows for college students.

Josh Stewart makes directorial debut by jake jarvis A&E Editor @jakejarviswvu
From the streets of Diana, West Virginia, to sharing the silver screen with Christian Bale in “The Dark Knight Rises,” Josh Stewart continues to find himself pushing boundaries in his film career. Stewart brings his directorial debut, “The Hunted,” to the Carmike Theatre in the Morgantown Mall. Added to the stress of directing, Stewart wrote the “found footage” screenplay and stars as the leading character Jake. Stewart says the film is based from his actual life experiences with the woods surrounding the Cheat Lake area. Stewart said he “fell sideways” into the world of performing after his high school speech and debate teacher, Mary Ross, convinced him to audition for a play at the Landmark Theatre in Sutton. From there it was history. He went on to study business in college, but never lost the itch for performing. As Stewart finished his summer and fall semester at West Virginia University, he and his roommate moved to a house near Cheat Lake. During his first night alone at the house, Stewart said he was scared by some-
thing outside. After investigating, he said, “what I didn’t find scared the hell out of me.” “I called my roommate the next morning and said, ‘We’re moving,’” Stewart said. “I’m not going back out there, and that’s the end of the story.” Stewart wouldn’t reveal all the details but said this film was the best way for him to tell the story. The story follows two men, Jake (Stewart) and Stevie (played by Ronnie Gene Blevins), as they film a wildlife hunting show in the woods of West Virginia. The men hope television producers will pick up the show. Audiences in Bridgeport and Sutton have already seen the film, and many have taken to Twitter to show their love of the work. “I’m never watching another @J0SHSTEWART horror movie,” wrote Tw itter user @skbshelby. “It’s 3:08 a.m. and I might have slept 15 minutes.” Critics have also generally been pleased with the film. Scott Weinberg, a movie reviewer from FEARNET, said some will see it as “a worthwhile homage to The Blair Witch Project.” Despite what audiences see as the finished product, the film required much work from Stewart and his
small production crew to complete. The film had a small crew to keep things “tight” and easier to manage. Stewart did say that directing himself presented challenges he did not expect. But, it was clear to Stewart trom the beginning to return to West Virginia to film. “There’s so much history and so much character to the people of West Virginia,” Stewart said. “You just can’t capture that. You can’t recreate that sort of richness.” Part of the inspiration for the film is based on the history of West Virginian legends. While most of us have heard of the Mothman, the appalachian area is home to many vivid legends, whether real or imagined. “From the time I was a kid, everyone had a ghost story,” Stewart said. “It never failed that someone had one, and some of them were made up and some of them not so much.” Josh Stewart started in West Virginia, and now ,he’s coming home to the “mountain momma.” The film begins at 7:30 p.m. Tickets can be purchased at http://www.tugg. com/titles/the-hunted.

Authors Long and Seaton to speak in Morgantown by erika bibbee correspondent @dailyathenaeum
WVU Press authors Carter Taylor Seaton and Laura Long will be touring Morgantown in three locations to discuss and autograph their work. The first stop is at Arts Mongahela Thursday night at 7 p.m. From there, the pair will be at the University Town Centre Barnes & Noble. Seaton is the author of “Hippie Homesteaders: Arts, Crafts, Music, and Living on the Land in West Virginia.” With lots of research and numerous interviews, she discovered the amaz-
ing story of 45 artists, musicians and performers who came to the state. They lived on the land and created success for themselves. Seaton said she always felt like someone would be born here in West Virginia and then succeed somewhere else. These people lived hard lives, and no one has ever told their story. Seaton wanted to put all the components together and make a story out of it. For fifteen years, Seaton was the director of a rural Appalachian craft cooperative that benefited low-income women. Because of this work, she was nominated in 1975
for a “Woman of the Year” award in Ladies Home Journal. During this period, she wanted to know why so many artisans came to West Virginia, and within her book, she tells from the load of research and interviews. Tamarack made her the Foundation Fellowship winner in 2013, an award given to artisans for recognition of their lifelong achievement in the arts. Seaton thanked WVU Press for designing the layout and cover of the book, and also using black and white pictures of artisans She said it really brings out the true meaning of the
story. Laura Long will discuss and autograph her debut novel, “Out of Peel Tree.” Long’s story is the description of how extraordinary ordinary life is. The characters have intense experiences they can’t put into words. “None of us can express all the realities we experience, and that’s why we need art, such as stories and music,” Long said. Also a poet, she wants to slow down her writing and show the rich details of experience but in few words. Long’s novel reveals the lives of a far-flung Appalachian family through del-
icate and difficult turning points. It unfolds the patterns of an Appalachian sensibility that can resonate everywhere. The book shows heartbreaks and hopes of people connected to the Appalachian family, and she wanted to show West Virginia without any of the cliches the region is often subjected to. A native of Buckhannon, West Virginia, Long left the state at the age of 19 and was very shocked by how other people saw West Virginia and of course, the typical stereotypes. She was recently selected by Oprah’s Book Club 2.0 , has received many awards
and fellowships and has also has been published in some local magazines. She attended West Virginia University for a year, one of a number of West Virginia writers who had Winston Fuller as a poetry teacher, and also said that one of the chapters in “Out of Peel Tree” is actually set in Morgantown. She currently teaches at Lynchburg College in Virginia. For more details about the specifics of each event, visit www.tourmorgantown.com/calendar.

The album consists of 14 tracks, including the single “West Coast,” which served as a promotional release for the album in May.

solidify her title as high priestess to the downtrodden and lovelorn. “Ultraviolence” is cinematic. Each track seems expertly placed, allowing listeners to follow the singer through moments of disarray and clarity. Simply, Del Rey is stronger than ever. Any question about the singer’s ability to sing are answered with tracks such as “Shades of Cool” and “Cruel World,” in which the singer soars to extreme points of her range. Instrumentals throughout are simple, allowing Del Rey’s classic Nancy Sinatra-esque voice to shine in all its haunting glamour.
Key tracks from “Ultraviolence” include “Florida Kilos,” a drug and blood-soaked love ballad, “Cruel World,” a Manson-esque ode to ’60s psychedelic love and “Shades of Cool,” a confessional ballad to an older man. Each song seems deliberate and well-placed, almost to an obsessive point. Themes of love lost, forbidden men and spectrums of sadness pervade throughout the singer’s body of work yet still mystify and draw listeners close. While the music is captivating to the ears, Del Rey’s poetics also shine. The singer pays homage to classic poets and writers, such as Walt Whitman, Vladimir Nabokov and Anthony Burgess, whose 1962 dystopian novel about crime and teen violence contains the term “ultra violence.” While reviews by critics in the past have been harsh and mixed, Del Rey’s “Ultraviolence” has garnered praise from major reviews, such as Rolling Stone, with 3.5 out of 5 stars, and The Guardian, with 4 out of 5 stars. “Ultraviolence” remains in good company on the iTunes charts, reigning in the top five albums with artists such as Sam Smith, Ed Sheeran and Linkin Park.

Watkins, Williams shine in summer league debuts By Connor Murray Sports Editor @ConnorKMurray
Six West Virginia basketball players saw live game action Monday night in the tip-off of the 2014 Pittsburgh Pro-Am League. Sophomore forward Devin Williams, who endured an up-and-down freshman campaign as West Virginia’s main post threat in 2013, scored 21 points and brought down 10 rebounds while shooting 10-for-21 from the field in his team’s 95-76 loss. While Williams may have learned some tough lessons on the floor in 2014, he said he expects the experience he gained during his freshman season will make him much better prepared for the grind of the college basketball season. “Last year I didn’t know what to expect, so every day stepping on the court, every game it was just going out
there and playing,” he said. “Now I know what to expect, what every gym is going to be like. There are a lot of players coming back in the conference so I know their tendencies. I’ve got a little bit of experience under my belt so it should be a better year.” Williams quickly established himself as one of the top young rebounders in the Big 12 during his freshman season. For him to take the next step as a player, coach Bob Huggins stressed he needs to diversify his skill set. “We’ve been trying to work with him to make better decisions once he bounces it in the lane. I think he can become a lot more versatile than just a power forward who can rebound the ball,” Huggins said. To Huggins point, Williams said although he may have struggled at times dribbling in the paint or looking for teammates when
the lane was closed off, he thinks his natural court awareness will help him continue to improve. “Last year I didn’t have to do anything like putting it on the floor or making the extra pass or anything like that. I’ve always had court vision. It’s never been a problem for me to pass the ball,” he said. Unlike Williams, sophomore Brandon Watkins didn’t have the luxury of extensive playing time to work out the kinks in his game during his freshman season. For that reason, the opportunity to face live competition in the summer league is all the more valuable to the 6’9 forward from Georgia. “It shows you where you’ve made progress and what you need to work on. Playing with your teammates, eventually they’re going to know how to play you, so going out and playing against new faces
is pretty cool,” Watkins said in an interview with bluegoldnews.com. He made the most of his opportunity Monday, scoring 29 points and registering seven rebounds. “I had a good showing. I was making a lot, but we still lost by a lot so I won’t say I did my best because overall, my team lost,” he said. Because the pace of play in these summer league games can tend to take away post play, Watkins said he was forced to focus on other areas of his game. It paid dividends Monday night, as he knocked down 13 of the 19 shots he took from the field. “It just makes me work on my mid-range game a lot. Today I was picking and popping a little bit. They were actually running screens for me to shoot, which I couldn’t believe,” he said. connor.murray@mail.wvu.edu

England eliminated from World Cup

Wayne Rooney looks on during England’s match against Costa Rica. BELO HORIZONTE, Brazil (AP) — After one final frustrating game in Brazil, England’s players can finally fly home. The Motherland of Football’s most humiliating experience at a World Cup is over, and the grieving process — as coach Roy Hodgson sees it — and the inquest can continue in England. The only consolation, if there can be any for this chastened squad of millionaires, is that they are leaving in exalted European company. At least Italy and Spain managed to win a game in Brazil, though. After losses to Italy and Uruguay, England collected just a point from Tuesday’s 0-0 draw against surprise Group D winner Costa Rica. Never before has England played such a meaningless match at a World Cup, with elimination confirmed just six days after England’s campaign started in Brazil. Even Hodgson conceded before kickoff that the game “served no purpose.” With Costa Rica’s remarkable progress already secured, this was not a thriller in the Mineirao. With one more lackluster display lacking dynamism, England showed why it is leaving the World Cup party early. “It was a difficult game to approach,” said Frank Lampard, who captained England in what could be his 106th and final appearance. “Everyone knows how tough it’s been.” Not since 1958 had the English managed to leave the World Cup so early, although they at least were undefeated with three draws in Sweden. This time, they signed out of the tournament in Belo Horizonte, just like they did in 1950 when the United States won the so-called “Miracle on Grass.” However humbling that experience seemed at the time for the country that popularized if not invented football, England has never actually established itself as a force on the world stage. England’s only World Cup

triumph came on home soil in 1966 and the furthest it has progressed since then was reaching the semifinals in Italy in 1990. Twenty four years later, England failed to beat two teams, Costa Rica and Uruguay, from countries with less than a tenth of its 50 million-plus population and domestic competitions incomparable with the wealthy Premier League. The tens of millions of pounds (dollars) the Football Association has spent on a stadium, a training center the national team rarely uses, and a World Cup delegation exceeding 70, has counted for little on the pitch. Hodgson doesn’t know why, apart from claiming Costa Rica’s coach has more access to his players. “You can analyze results and come up with answers. Lots of answers,” Hodgson said. “But all I can say is we haven’t been that fortunate here. I don’t think the performances have seen us outplayed or outclassed by any of the opponents we’ve played, but we haven’t got the results. “Results come down to two things: do you make mistakes in the penalty area and give goals away, or do you make mistakes in the opponents’ penalty area where you should score goals? The FA are working very hard on how we’d like our teams to play, and going forward we’ll benefit from that.” Unlike resigning Italy coach Cesare Prandelli, Hodgson is going nowhere, determined to see out his four-year contract and lead England into the 2016 European Championship. And in this final game, although it seemed like a pre-season friendly, several young players did gain valuable World Cup experience as Hodgson bloods them for the future. It might have been a more positive conclusion to this trip had firstchoice striker Daniel Sturridge been more clinical up front with his openings.

Clint Trickett drops back to pass against Oklahoma State.
Holgorsen names Trickett starting quarterback, says signal caller is ‘100 percent healthy’ after surgery By Connor Murray
regular season, uncertainty abounded when it came to who would be West Virginia’s starting quarterback. Heading into the final No such controversy will weeks leading up to the 2013 exist this year, as head coach Sports Editor @ConnorKmurray
Dana Holgorsen announced Tuesday afternoon that senior Clint Trickett will take the field as West Virginia’s starting signal caller when the Mountaineers take on
Alabama in the Chick-fil-A Kickoff Game Aug. 30. Trickett split time with Paul Millard and Ford Childress at the quarterback position during the 2013 season and threw for 1,605 yards and seven touchdowns in eight games played. After undergoing offseason shoulder surgery, Holgorsen said Trickett is ready to go and has earned the opportunity to be West Virginia’s starter. “Clint is 100 percent healthy and is ready to play,” Holgorsen said. “He worked hard last season and showed a lot of ability and leadership and deserves the chance to lead the team as a senior. He will be our starter.” In his first start of the 2013 season, Trickett led the Mountaineers to their biggest win of the season: a 30-21 win in Morgantown against No. 11 Oklahoma State. The transfer
from Florida State threw for 309 yards, completing 24 of his 50 passes, including one touchdown. While the win over the Cowboys was probably the highlight of the 2013 season for Trickett and West Virginia, the following week was one of its darkest moments. West Virginia was completely outmatched against Baylor, as many teams in the Big 12 were in 2013, and Trickett never got on track in the Mountaineers’ 73-42 loss in Waco, Texas. Trickett completed just nine of his 28 passes for 161 yards and threw a touchdown and an interception in the rout. Although West Virginia’s offense struggled to keep pace at times in the pass happy, breakneck pace of the Big 12, it looked its best when a healthy or nearly healthy Clint Trickett was under center. With a 100 percent healthy Trickett, as Hol-

gorsen has indicated, West Virginia’s offense will have the benefit of consistency at the quarterback position throughout fall camp and heading into the season opener, which is something it lacked throughout the 2013 season. connor.murray@mail.wvu.edu
