BOG votes to increase WVU tuition BY Summer Ratcliff City Editor @SUMMERRATCLIFF
West Virginia University’s Board of Governors approved a $980 million budget for the next fiscal year at their meeting June 5. This budget includes tuition increases for the main WVU campus of $252 per semester for resident students and $396 for non-residents. The Board also approved increasing financial aid at a
higher percentage rate than tuition and fees, including adding an additional $1.5 million in need-based scholarship aid. The budget reflects nearly $20 million in state funding reductions over the last two fiscal years. “While we recognize that increasing the tuition even one dollar is a concern for our current and prospective students, a West Virginia University education remains one of the best investments you can make,”
WVU Children’s Hospital receives new, updated pediatric ambulance By Hannah Wigal Staff Writer @DailyAthenaeum
The West Virginia University Children’s Hospital has teamed up with JanCare to purchase a new pediatric ambulance to better serve patients and their families. The updated ambulance will be equipped with all of the specialized instruments to provide medical assistance to children in need of urgent care. As children are transported to the WVU Children’s Hospital they will receive the same care as they would in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit or the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit. The original ambulance transported 292 children in need of critical care in 2013, and since 2010 children from West Virginia and parts of Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia and Maryland have been transported to the WVU Children’s Hospital in the ambulance. The newer vechile has fewer miles on it and all of the medical equipment is brand new. The original ambulance will be utilized as a spare, however both of the ambulances are certified as critical care transport units through the West Virginia Office of Emergency Medical Services. The WVU Children’s hospital ambulance can transport children ranging in age from a birth to adolescence, and infants can either be carried in a car seat or isolette.
The medical equipment on the ambulance includes a heart monitor/defibrillator, a ventilator and monitoring arterial catheters, which are used to check blood pressure and can be used for arterial blood gas measurements as well. The ambulance is also equipped to provide patients with medical air, which is typically used when transporting premature infants because the diluted dose of oxygen is safer for newborns. Along with the state of the art medical equipment the ambulance has features including GPS tracking, a drive cam with back-up cameras and drop-down chains for winter weather conditions. Lora Buchanan, R.N, works for the WVU Children’s Hospital as a pediatric transport nurse, and knows how important it is to have updated equipment for the sake of the patients and families of patients. “It’s not just the patient. You take care of the whole family,” Buchanan said. Buchanan has experienced the transport process as a mother and as a transport nurse, and says that medical exposure can be an intimidating experience for families. When her son Kyle Feick was visiting family in Parkersburg, West Virginia in September 2012 he was thrown into respiratory arrest after having a seizure. A local emergency squad was able to stabilize Feick’s condition,

President Gordon Gee said. “Even with the rising cost of higher education, the return over a lifetime remains substantial – even into the millions of dollars.” For the fiscal year beginning July 1, resident tuition and base fees for undergraduates will be $3,480 per semester and $10,212 for non-residents. Divisional campus tuition and fees will increase to $3,024 – up $120 – per semester for resident students
at West Virginia University Institute of Technology and $1,740 – up $72 – for twoyear programs at Potomac State College of West Virginia University. Non-residents will pay $7,596 and $4,729 respectively. Ryan Campione, former WVU Student Government Association President and current BOG member, cast the sole nay vote during his last meeting as student representative on the board, “This is an issue that has
kept me up the last several nights. I sympathize with the situation WVU is currently in, while trying to maintain a quality education,” Campione said. “I’d really like to encourage the state of West Virginia to come together as a whole and invest in higher education.” The increase in tuition for West Virginia residents is 7.81 percent and 4.03 percent for non-residents. While WVU’s tuition increase is the largest to be
approved in the state thus far, Marshall University students will see a 4.99 percent increase for residents and 4.01 percent for non-residents. Concord University students will also see an increase, as their tuition will go up by 7.0 percent for residents and 5.90 percent for non-residents.

Race raises money for rail trail
Laura Harnish becomes first woman to win Deckers Creek Half Marathon By Jake Jarvis A&E Editor @JakeJarvisWVU
The feet of 623 runners pounded the pavement for 13.1 miles in the 14th Annual Deckers Creek Half Marathon on Saturday. For the first time in the race’s history, a woman won. Laura Harnish, the 27-year-old runner from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, finished the course in one hour, 19 minutes and 12 seconds. Her pace was 6:03, putting her finish just one and a half minutes ahead of runner-up Charles Edward III. Ella Belling, the Executive Director of Mon River Trails Conservatory and race director, said a woman winning a half marathon like this is unusual. She said Edward was leading most of the race, but Harnish pulled ahead in the final miles. “I am just really competitive,” Harnish said. “Like today, I’m actually getting over being iron deficient, and so I dropped out of a race a month ago. So, today was just a really exciting time and felt really good.” Harnish and friend Jamie Morgenstern have competed at Deckers Creek for the past three years but regularly run full marathons. They agreed the half marathon presented different challenges and “a sharper pain.” “Two years ago, I had never broken an hour and thirty minutes in a half (marathon),” Morgenstern said. “But we came out here, camped at Coopers Rock, ate pasta, drank beer, and I beat my personal record by eight minutes.” Harnish said it’s the ca-
maraderie with fellow runners that make all the hours she trains worthwhile. The pair are a part of the Pittsburgh Pharaoh Hounds, a group of 19 (some nationally ranked) runners in the Western Pennsylvania region. “We have a lot of people who have been running this race for several years and always give us feedback,” Belling said. “We’re considering some things like finisher medals to mark the accomplishment of just finishing the race.” Currently, Mon Trails offers winners a one-of-akind “rail road spike” award. These spikes are gathered throughout the year by volunteers to serve as a testament to the history of the Deckers Creek Rail Trail. The $50 registration fee funds the race and also the upkeep of 48 miles of land the conservatory manages. Belling said the race brought in over $20,000, which is just a small portion of the $70,000 yearly budget. “We would love to see (the trails) connect all the way up to the Great Allegheny Passage,” Belling said. “We’re looking at a major long distance trail that would go from Washington D.C., to Fairmont.” From there, Belling hopes to see it link to the North End Trail, connect to Parkersburg and ultimately cross the Ohio River. This final project would make the trail over 500 miles long, mimicking The Appalachian Trail. After the awards ceremony, live music was supplied by Sam Lamong & Ben Gilmer and Uncle Mike and the Half Fast Band. “I’m always amazed at the talents that are here lo-

I actually saw some runners dancing at the finish lines.” Not only was there dancing, but after 17-year-old Adam Roh finished first in his category and 36th overall, he grabbed a bottle of water, took a long drink and went running down the trail again
Each year there are more racers and more surprising stories. But, what unites them all together, from competitors to supporting family members, is the love of running. “As long as we live in Pittsburgh, we plan on coming back each year,” Harnish said. jajarvis@mail.wvu.edu
Touch a Truck benefit provides learning experience, fun for children By Alexis Randolph STaff WRiter @DAILYATHENAEUM
The annual Morgantown Touch a Truck event, which featured vehicles of all types for children to climb in and check out, was held to benefit the Mary Babb Randolph Cancer Center Saturday. “Today is about fighting cancer,” said Sheila Powell, the event’s organizer. “All of the proceeds, 100 percent, go towards the cancer research fund,” All vehicles and personnel at the event were there on a volunteer bases according to Powell. The event has been taking place for several years and growing each year. As the organizer, the event holds a special place in Powell’s heart she said. “This is actually going into an endowment fund, which is for my father, who died of cancer,” Powell said. “My niece Leah and my daughter are also involved. It means a lot to us, to the whole family.”
Many families with children came out in support of the event, which had a $5 admission fee, children could purchase hard hats and t-shirts to commemorate the day as well. With vehicles to fill up several of the main lots at the Coliseum, the children were able to gain hands on experience with things such as food trucks, cherry pickers, fire trucks and even an emergency response helicopter. “We are very happy with the turn out, we have had beautiful weather and lots of people,” Powell said. Powell was also happy to get West Virginia University students involved by putting the event on iServe. She said she had about a dozen students sign up, who were a huge help for the day. Breanna Haught, a senior multidisciplinary studies student, said the event is something she has loved helping with in the past. “Since freshman year I have come and helped with this organization,” Haught

“It is a good way to bring the community together as a whole, all of the proceeds go to a good cause, The Mary Babb Cancer Center,” Haught said. “It is fun to see all of the kids come and enjoy themselves and see all the things the community can bring together

WVU robotics team captures gold in NASA, RASC-AL competitions By Alyssa Lazar STaff Writer @DailyAthenaeum
West Virginia University’s robotics team captured gold in two recent competitions at Florida’s Kennedy Space Center and the Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas. WVU’s robotics team is composed of undergraduate and graduate students from the Statler College of Engineering and Mineral Resources. It is an extension of the Lane Department of Computer Science and Electrical Engineering. Members of the Air Force ROTC Detachment 915 at WVU assisted the team.
The first competition in Florida was a part of NASA’s 2014 Robotic Mining Competition. “The NASA Robotic Mining Competition required teams to build a teleported or autonomous robot to mine a simulated Marian regolith,” said Powsiri Klinkhachorn, the team’s faculty advisor. “There were size and weight requirements as well as a scoring system based on autonomous control, weight, regolith mined, bandwidth usage, dust tolerance and mitigation.” The teams had two 10-minute sessions for their robot to mine as much as possible and deposit the
regolith, a sand-like material, into a nearby bin. WVU’s team mined 121.1 kilos of regolith, which gave them the highest average score out of 38 universities for the mining portion. They were awarded a $3000 scholarship and an opportunity to attend a future launch by NASA. Among the mining portion, there were other categories such as outreach, systems engineering, slide presentation, and team spirit. The team also took top honors in the outreach portion of the competition, which gave them a $500 scholarship to promote STEM in local schools.
In addition to the competition in Florida, WVU’s robotics team was one of eight to be selected to participate in the competition at the Johnson Space Center in Houston. “The RASC-AL Mars Rover competition challenges teams to build a planetary rover prototype and demonstrate its capabilities to perform a series of competitive tasks at Johnson Space Center’s Rock yard,” Klinkhachorn said. The tasks included negotiating upslopes and downslopes, traversing sand and gravel pits, picking up specific rock samples and driving over rocks of specified diameter within
one hour. The rovers were under the supervision of NASA judges. Among the competition were the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, University of California - Berkeley, University of Maryland, University of New York – Buffalo, University of Utah, University of Wisconsin – Madison, and Virginia Tech. The robot used in Houston was a different robot than in the Florida competition, demonstrating the dedication and diligence students need to design and build the robots. Every single part of the robots was student built. The Statler College’s Department of Chemical En-
gineering allowed members of the team admission to the machine shop anytime. “It really only takes the desire to build robots,” Klinkhachorn said. “We teach students all the skills they need to be successful and a valuable part of the team. The students who really get a lot out of the projects are those who put in 40plus hour weeks just on the robots.” WVU’s robotics team is open to any student regardless of class standing or major. Klinkhachorn said the only quality students need to possess is a willingness to work. danewsroom@mail.wvu.edu

Five American troops killed by deadliest friendly fire in nearly 14 years KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) — Five American troops with a special operations unit were killed by a U.S. airstrike called in to help them after they were ambushed by the Taliban in southern Afghanistan, in one of the deadliest friendly fire incidents in nearly 14 years of war, officials said Tuesday. The deaths were a fresh reminder that the conflict is nowhere near over for some U.S. troops, who will keep fighting for at least two more years. Pentagon spokesman Rear Adm. John Kirby said the five American troops were killed Monday “during a security operation in southern Afghanistan.”
“Investigators are looking into the likelihood that friendly fire was the cause. Our thoughts and prayers are with the families of these fallen,” Kirby said in a statement. In Washington, U.S. defense officials said the five Americans were with a special operations unit that they did not identify. Earlier, officials had said all five were special operations-qualified troops, but later an official said their exact affiliation was unclear and one or more may have been a conventional soldier working with the special operations unit. The deaths occurred during a joint operation of Af-
ghan and NATO forces in the Arghandab district of southern Zabul province ahead of Saturday’s presidential runoff election, said provincial police chief Gen. Ghulam Sakhi Rooghlawanay. After the operation was over, the troops came under attack from the Taliban and called in air support, he said. “Unfortunately five NATO soldiers and one Afghan army officer were killed mistakenly by NATO airstrike,” Rooghlawanay said. There was no way to independently confirm Rooghlawanay’s comments. The coalition would not comment and NATO headquarters in Brussels also declined to
comment. However, special operations forces often come under fire on joint operations and are responsible for calling in air support. Because of constraints placed by President Hamid Karzai, such airstrikes are usually called “in extremis,” when troops fear they are about to be killed. Airstrikes have long caused tensions between the Afghan government and coalition forces, especially when they cause civilian casualties. Airstrikes that kill coalition soldiers are far less common. One of the worst such incidents came in April 2002, when four Canadian soldiers
were killed by an American F-16 jet fighter that dropped a bomb on a group of troops during a night firing exercise in southern Kandahar. In April 2004, former National Football League player Pat Tillman was killed by coalition fire while serving in an Army Ranger unit in one of the most highly publicized cases. Relatives identified two of the five American troops killed Monday. One of those killed was 19-year-old Aaron Toppen of Mokena, Illinois, who had deployed to Afghanistan in March, a month after his father died, according to a family spokeswoman, Jennie
Swartz. His family was suffering a “double hit” of grief, Toppen’s sister, Amanda Gralewski, told the Chicago Sun-Times. A cousin said military representatives went to the home of Justin Helton’s parents in Beaver, Ohio, early Tuesday to inform them of their son’s death. Mindy Helton said her cousin specialized in dealing with explosives and was based out of Fort Bragg, North Carolina. She said the 25-year-old Helton had been in Afghanistan for about two months and was engaged to be married. The Taliban claimed responsibility for Monday’s ambush in Zabul.

Not only does the state need to increase its support, but we need to re-think our approach here at WVU.” Nyden said during his term on the Board, he will look to maximize efficiency within WVU administration

Orange is the New Black season two broadens scope of characters
buzzsugar.com
Inmates at Litchfield compete in a mock job fair.
Jake jarvis A&E editor @jakejarviswvu
The following article contains minor spoilers for Orange is the New Black. Without any shame I can proudly say I finished Netflix’s second season of Orange is the New Black. I happily sunk into my sofa for about 24 hours as the ladies of Litchfield weaved in and out of narratives that gave insights into how each of them found themselves behind bars. What strikes me most from this season is the creator, Jenji Kohan’s, confidence in branching out from the established characters to explore different lives. Everyone who watches this show has their favorites they root for, and so here’s mine. Vee Parker Lorraine Toussaint plays the best villian since Dis-
ney’s 1959 classic, “Sleeping Beauty.” Vee, unlike the main antagonist Pennsatucky from season 1, is not an outright bad girl. The season takes us on a journey from loving her charming smile to hating how she manipulates Taystee and friends. I’m not easily fooled when a writer tries and trick the audience into thinking the villain has changed their ways. Afterall, ominous music usually alerts us something isn’t what it seems. With Vee, however, the waters are murky. Despite continually going back on her word, I believed Vee when she shook Red’s hand and called a truce. Boy, was that a mistake. Lorna Morello Yael Stone plays the Jersey girl who introduced us to Litchfiel. Kohan took an entire episode to explore her back story and life with “fiance” Christopher. Of all the sad moments in the season,
I never cried - until Chris came to visit. I wasn’t at all surprised the engagement was a fraud and Morello was just stalking him. Although she stuck to her story of true love, we never saw her talk to him on the phone in season one. What makes the story more endearing is the friendship that strengthens between Morello and Nicky (Natasha Lyone) after the truth comes out. Taystee Alright, I knew Danielle Brooks was a good actress, but where did this stellar performance come from? Taystee’s story highlights the structural racism in America and the inability to escape the cycle of poverty. She starts as a young girl working at a local restaurant. Taystee avoids the grip of Vee, fearing her actions would put her behind bars. Oh the irony.
Vee intimidates fellow inmates witha piercing glare.

Barbara Walters returns to television to interview Elliot Rodger’s father
star98radio.com
NEW YORK (AP) — Barbara Walters’ time away from television isn’t lasting long. The TV news icon said Tuesday that she will interview the father of Elliot Rodger, the California man who shot and killed six people and injured 13 others before turning the gun on himself last month. The interview with Peter Rodger will air as a prime-time special on ABC News in the next few weeks. It was only last month that ABC honored Walters with a prime-time special and going-away party on “The View” when she stepped away from regular appearances on the daytime talk show she invented. She stressed at the time that she wouldn’t be retiring, and would still be available for special projects at ABC News. That came quickly, when Peter Rodger specifically requested to be interviewed by Walters, ABC News President James Goldston said on
Tuesday. He called Walters while she was vacationing in Berlin, and she agreed to do it. “She always said she’d be back for special projects,” Goldston said. “I don’t think we anticipated one so soon.” Walters, who was given a lifetime achievement award Tuesday by Quinnipiac University, said she booked the
vacation in part because she expected to be depressed after all of the festivities surrounding her exit from “The View” were over. “I didn’t get depressed,” she said, “but I went somewhere anyway.” Accepting her award, Walters read from an interview that she conducted with former British Prime
Minister Margaret Thatcher shortly after she left office. Thatcher talked of feeling dislocated when the important phone calls and the big meetings stopped. Walters confessed that “I still have a feeling sometimes when I’m watching ‘The View’ that I should be there, I should be participating.”

Facebook: For connecting with friends or profit? jake jarvis A&E Editor @jakejarviswvu
Attention Facebook users: you are not just a user. You are a product. MySpace fell in popularity, only to give way to Facebook. From there, Twitter was born, and not long after, we met Tumblr. It seemed easy to dismiss each new social media platform as temporary. Recent additions to Facebook, though, cement it into the 21st century as the greatest business in the virtual world we’ve seen. Mark Zuckerburg continues to show us his willingness to change and adapt his business model for the sake of profit. But where Zuckerburg soars in profit, he lags in remembering why he created Facebook in the first place – for people to connect to one another. As early as 2009, Facebook has been finding ways to profit from its user.
Facebook Credits was a program that allowed users to buy credits to use for in-game purchases, such as upgrades in the gaming experience or design. This payment method was implemented to allow easier currency exchange. But, with every credit purchase and use, Facebook and the app developer take a profit. Facebook has started tricking us into paying for nothing. For starters, Zuckerburg hired David Marcus, the President of Paypal. Marcus wrote in a Facebook post that he was ready to leave Paypal and quit managing over 14,000 employees. He said he looks forward to “getting (his) hands dirty again.” Marcus, as the Vice President of Messaging Products, will be in charge of Facebook Messenger, gearing his work toward monetizing mobile chatting. But what is there to monetize? WhatsApp, the popular cross-platform instant messaging app, is known for its
firm “no ads, no games, no gimmicks” motto. In fact, WhatsApp.com has an entire blog post on its website about why the creators chose not to sell ads. “Remember, when advertising is involved, you are the product,” the page reads. Facebook purchased WhatsApp, and its 500 million users, in February for $19 million. Although Marcus will reportedly not be managing this app, I find it hard to believe that WhatsApp will stay ad-free. Another addition to Facebook is the listening feature. Unveiled in May, this development activates the microphone on your mobile device when posting a status, “listening” to your surroundings. Now, your status can read, “Having a good day! – Listening to ‘Happy’ by Pharrell Williams.” Forgive me, Facebook, for having some concerns about you listening to me. I’ve read your post about this feature at Newsroom. FB.com, but in dispelling
rumors that the app isn’t always listening, you fail to mention if the information you gather will be sold to advertisers. How easy would it be to tack on a “Buy this on iTunes” button to a status next? Facebook is packaging this feature as a way for users to “share and discover music, TV and movies.” This is all for us, after all, so we can enjoy the app more. But, I don’t believe it. Facebook, which was once a way to connect with others and share content, has turned us all into a product. It feels so comfortable to log on, scroll through your newsfeed, “like” a photo and take a quiz all while trying to ignore the ads. My Facebook account is slowly turning into a way to refer my friends to advertisements I’ve like. So what do we do? Quit Facebook. It’s become a crutch. I hear people say, “Oh, no one cares what you had for
vator.tv
dinner.” And I hear them complain about seeing relationship drama pan out for the virtual world to see. So why do we keep going back? We keep coming back because we like the idea that what we have to say, our experience, the “record” of our life, is important to the
world. And yet, we agree that it’s not. Today at noon I will say my goodbyes to Facebook. I choose not to be a product. I choose not to not to let my life profit anyone other than me. daperspectives@mail.wvu.edu
11th annual World Naked Bike Ride Tuition hike ranks below peers, promotes comfort in own skin EDITORIAL
‘lock-in’ method better option On Thursday the West Virginia University Board of Governors approved a $980 million budget for the 2015 fiscal year. Included in this budget is a hike in tuition costs. The West Virginia University Main Campus tuition will increase $252 for in-state students and $396 for out-ofstate students. The budget also includes a state-mandated $507 salary increase for state employees, and $2 million to pull from for other staff and faculty salary increases. Although West Virginia University’s tuition rate is still among the lowest in the country, it is certainly not out of the question to ask, how is this fair?
From a salon.com recent article, ‘College’s inequality disgrace: millionaire university presidents and indebted students,’ the idea that university presidents are becoming richer while their students continue to face the deep, dark hole of debt due to ever-increasing tuition costs raises the question of inequality. So students should just take the blow and be dragged down by more and more debt every year so that state employees, including the “hyper-wealthy college administrators,” as the article so eloquently puts it, can get rich? Most would agree the majority of university presidents do their jobs
well and look after the students’ best interests, but there’s a clear price on it. Many schools around the nation have implemented a “locked-in” tuition for the four years a student attends the school, meaning whatever the cost is when the student first starts as a freshman, it will stay the same for the next four years. This doesn’t mean the tuition couldn’t change for incoming freshmen or transfer students, but it definitely seems like a viable option for West Virginia University, especially considering we have one of the lowest tuition costs among peer institutions. dapersectives@mail.wvu.edu
Keep your apartment safe from burglaries Elana Goodwin Ohio State
Crime is inherent in the United States; it’s an unfortunate fact of life. Living offcampus at college in an apartment or house increases the probability of a crime occurring to you so being careful and cautious is crucial. One of the biggest worries off-campus livers need to be concerned with is burglary, as oftentimes apartments or houses are less secure and less monitored than dorms. Here are some tips on how to prevent your house or apartment off-campus from being burglarized and how to keep your stuff from being stolen. Firstly, when looking into your options for living offcampus, check out the crime rates in different neighborhoods and talk to your potential landlords about problems people have had living on their properties. When checking out a prospective apartment or house, knock on your would-be neighbors’ doors and ask about their experience living in the neighborhood and if they’ve had any issues with the landlord or with crime, etc., in order to make a knowledgeable decision about where you live. One of the easiest and best ways to prevent your apartment or house from getting burglarized and keep your stuff from getting stolen is not to advertise when you leave your house, whether it’s to go home for the weekend or to go out at night. Posting on social media where you are or that you’re leaving your home gives potential burglars inside information about whether your home is safe to hit. Additionally, posting pictures of you somewhere
DA
THEDAONLINE.COM
while you’re there also relays to anyone who can see that picture that you are not at home and it may be unoccupied. Waiting until you are home to post a picture or tweet about where you were or limiting who can see it to trusted friends may be a safer option. Another method to keep your stuff safe is always keep doors and all windows locked, especially when you’re at home by yourself, sleeping, or leaving the place. Even if you are home during the day, your door should still be locked. Having blinds on windows, in particular the first floor and basement ones, is also a good idea so people outside can’t see into your home and windows should be kept covered at night. Further, try to keep items put away, especially valuables, and out of sight from the windows. Also, leaving a light on somewhere inside the apartment or house when you leave is another smart technique as it gives the appearance of someone being inside. A great way to deter burglars is to post a sign advertising a home security or alarm system sticker on your door, in a visible place on a window, or if you live in a house, in your front yard by your door. While this isn’t a guarantee that robbers won’t still try to hit your place and test your “system,” it may prevent some burglars from attempting to enter your home as they fear setting off an alarm. If you are planning on living in one location for more than just a year, talk to your landlord about the possibility of putting in an alarm to further protect your stuff. You also shouldn’t put your name or address on your key ring as if lost it tells
the person exactly where you live and provides them with a way to get into your home; if you lose your keys, you should also look into getting your locks changed as another precaution. Whenever possible, if you are leaving your apartment for extended periods of time, like for an away weekend or winter break, take whatever valuables you can home with you. Making a list of all your valuables, cell phones, laptops, jewelry, cameras, TVs, etc.–and taking pictures of them as well as writing down their serial numbers and any descriptive features–is also a good idea. Also, while this won’t prevent your stuff from being stolen, see if any of your more expensive valuables can be insured, either under your parent’s insurance policy or under renters insurance. This way if something is taken, it’ll be cheaper for you to replace. You should also get to know your neighbors so you can recognize more readily if someone is lurking around your home or apartment complex and doesn’t belong. Being friendly with your neighbors can also be helpful as if you’re going away for a while, you can ask them to collect the mail so you don’t broadcast to others that someone is not home to pick it up. While you can’t necessarily stop a burglar from stealing your stuff, you can take precautions to better guard your belongings and prevent burglars from targeting your home and taking your things. Use some of these tips to increase your safety in your offcampus home as well as the safety of your valuables and sanctity of your apartment or house.
Participants in the World Naked Bike Ride pose for aphoto before beginning their race.
hANNAH cHENOWETH cOLUMNIST @dailyathenaeum
These days, a simple bike ride can take on a whole new meaning. This past Saturday, Portland, Oregon hosted the 11th annual World Naked Bike Ride. WNBR is a global grassroots movement that involves thousands of naked bicyclists who “peacefully expose the vulnerability of cyclists, humanity and nature, in the face of cars, aggression, consumerism and non-renewable energy.” The motto for the event is “bare as you dare,” although wearing clothing isn’t forbidden. Most participants do choose to live up to the motto while expressing themselves though body painting and personalizing their bikes with everything from art to musical instruments. Creativity and imagination are strongly encouraged, and many participants aren’t as bare as others through the use of flesh colored bodysuits and liquid latex. This is one beautiful example of the freedom of speech not just in our country but in the world, as the event has taken place from Hungary to Paraguay and in many other countries. Arrests during WNBR Events are rare, with the police typically facilitat-
ing the event with traffic control or neutrally monitoring. Although WNBR events have encountered very few legal problems, they have encountered criticism just like any other mass event making a statement. Some offended by the nudity of the affair have claimed that it is indecent and even sexually deviant. Supporters of the freedom to “bare as you dare” contend that there is nothing deviant about embracing the diversity and beauty of all sizes, shapes and the flaws that make us human. Participants have also claimed that the event is a “refreshing way to remind people of some fundamental freedoms of life that people have collectively handed over without really thinking of the consequences.” When you think about that statement, it triggers the realization of how unnatural so many aspects of society are. We accept it and go through the motions without even realizing, starting with the simple act of covering our bodies with “dress-code approved” outfits and uniforms as soon as we wake – clothes that have been mandated and approved by bosses, corporate offices and schools. WNBR isn’t just about environmentalism but also naturism, which is where the naked element
fitsugar.com
comes in. Respecting the earth and respecting our bodies goes hand in hand, and it makes perfect sense in the way that this event ties together. The Facebook page for WNBR brings up the all too apparent problem in our society that we forget – people are “living creatures and part of nature, not superior or detached from it. Shame or disgust of human bodies, in all their colors, shapes and sizes is a form of prejudice.” WNRBR is about selfempowerment and positive body image, two values which are sorely absent in a society which barrages us with a constant promotion of cosmetic surgery, anti-aging treatments and everything but embracing our natural appearance. The event is not a race, and the only competition is perhaps who has the most creative decorations of bodies and bikes. Not only is it not competitive, but it is completely free to participate in – no registration, forms or any details are collected. I believe there is nothing but good that comes out of an event that promotes the use of bicycles as transportation and also “delivers a vision of a cleaner, safer, body-positive world.” daperspectives@mail.wvu.edu

NY pop artist to visit local Library by jake jarvis A&E editor @jakejarvisWVU
Grab your cereal boxes and glue sticks because Michael Albert, a New York pop artist, will visit the Morgantown Public Library for the third time on June, 17. He will be offering a free lecture and demonstration on how his work is created. “I’m showing people I’ve never met,” said Albert, “that know nothing about me, who’ve never been to where I’m from and I see that they like my work.” He’s known for his “Cerealism” style in which he cuts up old cereal boxes and transforms them into pop art collages. The journey to this style was a long one but started during his college years. Albert attended New York University and studied business. It was dur-
ing his trips to the many museums in the city that led him to want to pursue art. He saw the works of artists from hundreds of years ago being preserved and was inspired to create. Ruth Godfrey, the children’s librarian and summer event coordinator, said that unlike other events where the library contacts the artist, Albert contacted the library. His journey with West Virginia libraries began two years ago. “I made a connection with a library in Wheeling,” Albert said, “and then I decided to try to make a tour of West Virginia and visit as many libraries as I could.” His presence is valued so much that he was invited to attend the West Virginia Library Association Conference at Shepherdstown in Oct., 2013. He presented “Pop Art
Program for Families,” a multigenerational program to include the entire family. An artist like Albert might seem more at home by touring art galleries across the country, but in 2008 Albert published the book “An Artist’s America.” He originally began working with libraries in New York City to try and get his book on the shelves. “The library, to me, is the best place to experience new art and new ideas,” Albert said. “A book store will carry any book as long as it sells. To me, a library is a lot more serious.” During his current tour, Albert said he will be traveling through 33 different libraries in just 14 days. At this free event, attendees will get a chance to meet the artist, design their own collage and walk away with a free poster from the artist. All mate-

Local artists to be feature at fifth Art Night by mitchell glazier A&E writer @dailyathenaeum
The Fifth Annual Art Night, sponsored by Spring Hill Suites, a division of Marriott hotels, will be Friday at their Morgantown location from 5 to 9 p.m. The event’s exhibition will showcase a myriad of local artists in various mediums. In addition to the exhibition, various finger foods and beverages will be provided. While the event is free to attend, all proceeds generated from Annual Art Night will be donated to West Virginia University’s Children’s Hospital and Miracle Network, which will aid in cancer research and the
caretaking of costly hospital fees. “Anyone interested in art, and nearly any kind of it, should plan on coming out to Art Night,” said Nancy Gladden, facilities chair and event planner for Spring Hill Suites. “With all proceeds going to cancer research and the Miracle Network, attending is an incredible act of kindness. Not to mention, this year’s exhibition is incredible.” Representatives from Spring Hill Suites reached out to a variety of local artists, all in various stages of their careers in the craft. In addition to an invitation to exhibit art, applications for the Fifth An-
nual Art Night went live in December, which generated an incredible buzz within WVU’s School of the Arts. “I’ve been working on and perfecting my piece for the last six months for this exhibition,” said Samantha Zurik, a senior Printmaking and Visual Art student. “I take every exhibit and opportunity very seriously,” Zurik said, “All money goes to a wonderful cause, which sweetens the deal for me.” Attendees of the event will be led into the exhibition by event coordinators, who have worked tirelessly in the weeks leading up to the event. In the lobby guests will have the opportunity to
sample various snacks and beverages before entering the galleries. The lobby will be adorned with celebratory decorations made by local artists. “Coordinating everything was certainly a lot of work, but it feels so good to give these young artists an opportunity to shine,” said Carolyn Gletner, a manager at Spring Hill Suites. “Annual Art Night helps out so many people in so many ways,” Gletner said, “That’s why I love it, and why we dedicate so much time in the preparation.” As the fifth year anniversary of the event nears, planners and artists expect Annual Art Night to draw its biggest crowd yet.
Nearly three hundred people attended last year’s exhibition, which generated thousands of dollars to donate the WVU Children’s Hospital and Miracle Network. In addition to funding research and covering costly hospital fees, proceeds donated to the Miracle Network will help fulfill far-reaching dreams of terminally ill children within the program. “ I’ve s e e n d o na tion money do some incredible things for children battling cancer and other terminal diseases,” said Tamara Johnston, a WVU alumni and pediatrician at Ruby Memorial Hospital. “Any amount of money,
big or small, will help make life for these children easier, and bring us closer to a cure.” For additional information regarding the Fifth Annual Art Night at Morgantown’s Spring Hill Suites, contact event planning staff by telephone at 304225-5200 extension 3, or by email at autumn.scott@ marriott.com. Doors for the event will open promptly at 5 p.m, with the Fifth Annual Art Night lasting until 9 p.m. While free to attend, donations by guests to the WVU Children’s Hospital and Miracle Network will be accepted. daa&e@mail.wvu.edu
Lack of sleep cause of Morgan crash NEW BRUNSWICK, N.J. (AP) — A truck driver’s lack of sleep is being blamed for the highway crash that injured Tracy Morgan and killed another comedian in New Jersey. As Morgan recovered in a hospital, authorities said Monday that the truck driver who triggered the weekend crash hadn’t slept for more than 24 hours before the accident. Wal-Mart trucker Kevin Roper was expected to appear in state court Wednesday. It was unclear if Roper, of Jonesboro, Georgia, had retained an attorney. He remained free after posting $50,000 bond. State police on Tuesday released audio recordings from three 911 calls made after the accident. In one, a woman tells the dispatcher: “It’s a terrible accident. The car flipped. It’s on its side. It’s two vehicles and a Wal-Mart truck.” Authorities said Roper apparently failed to slow for traffic ahead early Saturday in Cranbury Township and then swerved to avoid a crash. Instead, they said, his big rig smashed into
the back of Morgan’s chauffeured limo bus, killing Morgan’s close friend and fellow comedian James “Jimmy Mack” McNair and injuring Morgan and three other | people. Roper has been charged with death by auto and four counts of assault by auto. Under New Jersey law, a person can be charged with assault by auto if he or she causes injury after knowingly operating a vehicle after being awake for more than 24 hours. According to the criminal complaint, Roper operated the truck “without having slept for a period in excess of 24 hours resulting in a motor vehicle accident.” It doesn’t specify the basis for that assertion. The accident occurred in a chronically congested area of the New Jersey Turnpike where a five-year widening project is expected to be finished this year. A turnpike authority spokesman said two of three northbound lanes had been closed about a mile ahead of the accident for road work, which likely slowed traffic. Spokesman Tom Feeney
said turnpike officials haven’t seen an increase in fatal accidents in the construction area, which stretches about 35 miles. Morgan, a former “Saturday Night Live” and “30 Rock” cast member, was in critical but stable condition Monday. His spokesman, Lewis Kay, said he faces an “arduous” recovery after surgery on his broken leg. Morgan suffered a broken femur, a broken nose and several broken ribs and is expected to remain hospitalized for weeks, Kay said. Morgan’s fiancee was with him at the hospital, he said. Wal-Mart Stores Inc. President Bill Simon said the Bentonville, Arkansas-based company “will take full responsibility” if authorities determine its truck caused the accident. Wal-Mart trucks have been involved in 380 crashes in the past two years, federal data show. The crashes have caused nine deaths and 129 injuries. The company has 6,200 trucks and 7,200 drivers, according to the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration, and they drove 667 million miles last year.

Erikson Alumni Center to host sixth annual Taste of Morgantown by maria solano A&E writer @dailyathenaeum
The American Red Cross will present The Sixth Annual Taste of Morgantown Wednesday at West Virginia University’s Erickson Alumni Center. Morgantown residents can enjoy an assortment of local eateries while giving back to an invaluable charity. Orgnizers continue in the tradition of showcasing Morgantown’s finest restaurants, specialty food vendors, breweries and top wine distributors. “The Red Cross is doing work in our community every day and this is the only public facing fundraiser we have,” said Shauna Soom, executive director of Morgantown’s River Valley Chapter of the Red Cross. The River Valley Chapter of has aided local residents who were impacted by e xt re m e weather and prolonged power outages in the past year. “What makes this event unique is how we bring together over 20 local vendors that you would not have the chance to visit
in one night was it not for this event,” Soom said. Sponsors for the event include Mylan Pharmaceutical, March-Westin, and other local companies. The theme for this year’s event is “Living Local” which encourages participants to incorporate regionally grown produce and products into their offerings. The diverse mix of food, wine and beer highlights the best West Virginia has to offer. “We have used the ‘Living Local’ theme for several years but how we bring the theme to life changes each time,” Soom said. “This year we are using a flower theme.” This theme encourages vendors to incorporate flowers into their offerings. Judges will present awards in the following categories: Living Local, Best Presentation, Best Dessert, Originality, Taste of Morgantown and People’s Choice Award. This year’s participants are Bartini, Blueridge Beverage, Galaxy Distributing, Joe’s Globe, Lebanese Bistro, Morgantown Brewing Co., Mountain State
marchwestin.com
Brewing Company, Oliverio’s Restorante, Preston County Inn, Regatta Bar & Grille, Sargasso, Stefano’s, The Cupcakerie, Terra Cafe and Tutto Gelato. “It is a great event and a lot of fun,” Soom said. “We enjoy the public sup-

Haggard Wulf to showcase local talents at 123 Pleasant Street developer. Kulina works at a used video game store which he said allows him to work on side art projects. What’s most suprising to me is that this “part time” band can produce a full time sound. Of all the releases, my favorite song is “Daddy Longlegs,” the lead song from the “Those Who Cried Wulf” album. This song pulls in the rockabilly tones I love from them. I can’t help but bob my head at the lyrics: “Gonna’ send you to meet your maker, daddy long legs in your pepper shaker.” Another favorite is “Bath Salt Blues.” This song, on the most recent April release, is spliced with sounds from news broadcasters discussing the bath salt drug phenomena. To me, this song is about as “easy-listening” as it gets for Haggard Wulf. Unlike some bands who record diligently and approach writing music in an almost academic fashion, Haggard Wulf tends to go for an organic approach. “There’s been times where we’ve written songs on the fly while playing live, even,” said Shuttlesworth. “It’s all just kind of random.” Though playing at 123 tonight, Haggard Wulf tends to play at Mundy’s Public House at least twice a month.
Because the band is constantly evolving and reinventing their act, Shuttlesworth said to come to tonight’s performance not expecting anything, “That way you won’t be let down.” “My drums will proably fall apart,” Kulina said, “expect that to happen at least once or more.” What’s most interesting about Haggard Wulf is the array of inspirations they draw from. It’s easy to hear influences in their sound ranging from Black Sabbath to Johnny Cash. As a part of our Guest DJ series, Shuttlesworth and Kulina have assembled a list of their 10 favorite songs, each choosing five. Chris Shuttlesworth: “My Generation” – The Who “Gimme Danger” – The Who “ I’m Waiting For the Man” – The Velvet Undergound “Preackin’ the Blues” – The Gun Club “Never Bet the Devil Your Head” – Haggard Wulf Mike Kulina: “She Sells Sanctuary” – The Cult “Prowler” – Iron Maiden “Hand of Doom” – Black Sabbath “Fortunate Son” – Creedence Clearwater Revival

Two men armed with a guitar and drum set blur the lines between blues and punk. Morgantown’s 2-piece band, Haggard Wulf, will perform tonight a 123 Pleasant Street. This DIY band continues to produce new and interesting sounds at every turn. The men have already produced 11 album releases since 2010, the latest being a split 7” record with The Stalnaker Brothers from April. “Mourningside” is set to be the next release. According to the band’s Facebook page, the album is not finished yet and does not have a release date. “We put the Mourning side EP on the back burner for a bit,” said Shuttlesworth, “in favor of our tour last fall and lots of local and semi-local shows instead.” He added the EP will hopefully be released by the end of summer. Despite the almost constant shows and recording, the duo spend only their extra time working on the band. Shuttlesworth spends his days as an automotive mechanic and a freelance graphic designer and web

NEW YORK (AP) — Paul McCartney is rescheduling U.S. tour dates as he continues to recover from a virus he received treatment for last month. The former Beatles singer announced Monday tour stops scheduled for mid-June will be postponed to October. He was supposed to kick off the U.S. leg of his tour Saturday. Instead his first show will be July 5 in Albany,
New York. McCartney says he’s taking his doctor’s advice and will take more time to rest. Last month he cancelled his “Out There Japan Tour 2014” because of his illness. U.S. tickets for the seven original June dates will be honored at the new dates. The tour wraps up Oct. 28 in Louisville, Kentucky. McCartney turns 72 next week.

triple jump to secure sixth place overall in the event. It was her furthest jump since recording a 13.07 in 2012. “Stormy closed out her NCAA preliminary career in great fashion,” said Cleary. “Her career at West Virginia has been exceptional but was missing one thing. Tonight, Stormy took care of that blemish by qualifying for the NCAA Finals.” Cleary was pleased with the way his athletes played in prelims. Hopefully, they will be able to carry the momentum forward heading into this weekend. “Every one of the young ladies that we brought to the NCAA meet exceeded their incoming ranking,” Cleary said. “That statistic alone tells us that we had a very successful weekend.” dasports@mail.wvu.edu

WVU ties program high with six players selected in 2014 MLB First-Year Player Draft Sports Editor @ConnorKMurray
Following a season in which the West Virginia baseball team finished 28-26 and just missed qualifying for the NCAA Tournament, six Mountaineers were selected in the 2014 MLB Draft, tying a program high for players taken in one year. Junior pitcher Harrison Musgrave was the first Mountaineer off the board when he was taken by the Colorado Rockies in the eighth round with the 223rd pick overall. After being drafted by the Phillies in the 33rd round in 2013, Musgrave returned to Morgantown and improved his draft stock with dominant pitching in 2014. The left-hander held opponents to a batting average of .227 and struck out 87 hitters in 106.1 innings pitched while posting an earned run average of 2.62. “I would like to thank the Rockies organization,” Musgrave said. “It’s a great honor and a new challenge that I look forward to.” Three picks later, junior center fielder Bobby Boyd was taken with the 226th overall pick by the Hous-
ton Astros. Boyd built on a strong sophomore season from 2013, taking his game to the next level and gaining a reputation across the Big 12 for his hitting, speed and slick defense in the outfield. A catalyst for the offense near the top of the Mountaineer lineup, Boyd led the team with a .356 batting average and stole 18 bases in 20 attempts in 2014. “It just all feels like a dream. I can’t believe this day has come,” Boyd said. “I want to thank everyone with the Astros for giving me this opportunity.” The names of four more Mountaineers were called on the final day of the draft. Ju n i o r l e f t- ha n d e d pitcher John Means was taken in the 11th round by the Baltimore Orioles. Means was selected by the Atlanta Braves in the 46th round of the 2013 draft but decided to return to school. A mainstay in West Virginia’s three-man weekend rotation, Means posted an earned run average of 3.13 in 12 starts and struck out 46 batters in 69 innings pitched. “I’m very proud to stand alongside the other guys picked to represent
WVU at the next level,” Means said. “Also, I would like to thank all of the coaches and West Virginia University.” Redshirt junior pitcher Sean Carley, who transferred to WVU and sat out the 2013 season after starting his career at the Air Force Academy, was selected by the New York Yankees in the 14th round. Carley started the season as the No. 2 option in West Virginia’s weekend rotation, behind lefthander Harrison Musgrave. As the season wore on, head coach Randy Mazey decided to move Carley to the bullpen, giving him the closer role for the team’s stretch run. “I’m ecstatic and honored to join such a storied program as the Yankees,” Carley said. “It’s a surreal feeling right now for my family and I. I guess I have to cut the mullet and goatee now.” Senior first baseman Ryan McBroom was taken by the Toronto Blue Jays with the 444th pick in the 14th round. McBroom was the biggest power threat in the West Virginia lineup, clubbing a team-high eight home runs and driving in 49 runs while compiling a batting average of .341. “I just want to thank

Bobby Boyd connects with a pitch during the 2014 season. everyone for the unbelievable opportunity, especially the Blue Jays,” McBroom said. “I’m excited to get this thing going.” Following an up-and down career in Morgantown, senior pitcher Corey Walter was picked by the Oakland Athletics in the 28th round. Walter filled a variety of roles on the West Virginia pitching staff in 2014 and finished with an earned run average of 5.01 while striking out 20 batters in 46.2 innings pitched. Two players who have yet to make their Moun-
taineer debuts also had their names called in the draft. Incoming junior pitcher Greg Maisto was taken in the 16th round by the Tampa Bay Rays, while incoming freshman pitcher Caleb Ferguson was selected by the Los Angeles Dodgers in the 38th round. All of the underclassmen selected in the draft will have until July 18 to make their decision to either sign a professional contract or return to school. connor.murray@mail.wvu.edu

Mountaineers to compete at NCAA Finals By Kevin Hooker Sports Writer @DailyAthenaeum
After posting top-12 finishes at the 2014 NCAA Outdoor Track and Field East Preliminary Rounds in Jacksonville, Floria May 29-31, three West Virginia athletes from the women’s track and field team qualified to compete in the NCAA Finals in Eugene,
Oregon. June 11-14. The three seniors are runners Allison Lasnicki and Sarah Martinelli, as well as jumper Stormy Nesbit. Lasnicki kicked things off for the Mountaineers on the opening day of the prelims, clinching 11th place in the 10,000-meters with a time of 34:11.71 to qualify for the finals. “This was a clutch per-

formance in extreme heat and humidity,” said head coach Sean Cleary. “All we ask of our kids is to do their very best every time out. Laz has never let us down.” The trend continued on the second day of competition, when Martinelli, a Morgantown native, qualified for the finals after posting the second-fastest time in school history

in the 3,000-meter steeplechase with a seven second drop from her previous personal record of 10:10.25 to take 12th place. “While Sarah’s story is not finished, tonight marks the finest chapter to date,” Cleary said. “Sitting around waiting for the final two heats to unfold might have been the most anxious filled 20 minutes of her life. Local girl makes it to the NCAA Finals in Eugene does not even begin to tell her story.” Martinelli trimmed more than seven seconds off her previous personalbest time of 10:17.38 to finish in 12th place in the event. On the final day of the tournament, Nesbit became the third Mountaineer to qualify for the finals. Nesbit bested her PR to leap 13.19-meters in the
Harris chooses Michigan State Eron Harris, an exWest Virginia shooting guard, announced his plans to transfer to Michigan State University under Coach Tom Izzo next year Monday. Per NCAA rules, Harris will sit out the 2014-2015 and have two seasons of eligibility remaining. As a sophomore, Harris showed significant improvement from his freshman year, averaging 17.2 points per game last season on 43.8 percent from the field and 42.2 percent from 3-point range. He averaged 9.8 points on 41.9 percent shooting in 2012. Harris’ loss is obviously a huge blow for WVU, especially since the program also lost the team’s No. 3 scorer Terry Henderson for the same reason. He announced his plans to transfer from WVU back in late March because he wanted to closer to his hometown Indianapolis, Indiana and originally listed schools like Kentucky, Indiana and Purdue. But he chose the Spartans, a team that won 29 games last season en route to a loss in the Elite 8. Unlike WVU, Izzo’ssquad is used to making deep runs in the tournament. The Spartans have made the round of 32 for the last seven years and made appearances in the Sweet 16 for the last three seasons. It’s a shame Harris is no longer with the Mountaineers, but he’ll look to make a big impact for the Spartans in 2015. “I am a Spartan now,” Harris tweeted after the decision became official. “(I) can’t wait to get started at my new home.” The thing is though, the distance from Indianapolis to East Lansing, MI isn’t much closer than the distance from Indianapolis to Morgantown. According to Google Maps, Harris will travel 254 miles to his new school. The distance from Indianapolis to Morgantown is about 379, which is only about an hour less of a drive. It’s hard for me to justify Harris leaving because he was homesick when his new school isn’t much closer than WVU. There has to be more to this story. Since Huggins’ Mountaineers made the Final Four in 2010, the program has done nothing but go downhill. Sure, college sports are cyclical, but WVU hasn’t even made it past the second round since then and are currently riding a two-year NCAA postseason drought. Huggins, whose contract runs through 2022, has recruited 16 players since that 31 win season, and 12 have either never touched the court or left the program. Huggins has received an outpouring of support in recent months, but the fact of the matter is, his players come to WVU with a certain expectation and leave when expectations aren’t met. Three starters have left the team in the last two years, and rather than take big strides forward every offseason, the Mountaineers keep walking backwards. WVU had great potential to make a deep run in the tournament next season, but after the team lost its No. 2 and No. 3 scorers this past offseason, things are again looking bleak. Forward Remi Dibo also announced he would return to France next season. He averaged 7 points per game off the bench last season. “The reality is kids are transferring, they’re transferring everywhere,” Huggins said. “They’re transferring everywhere.”

Quick, LA Kings push Rangers to brink with 3-0 win
AP
Los Angeles Kings goalie Jonathan Quick makes a save Monday against the Rangers. NEW YORK (AP) — It turns out Jonathan Quick and the Los Angeles Kings are just as good with the lead as they are without it. That leaves the New York Rangers with little hope of making much of a series out of the Stanley Cup finals. Quick stopped 32 shots in his best start of the series, Jeff Carter scored in the final second of the first period, Jake Muzzin and Mike Richards added goals in the second, and the Kings beat the Rangers 3-0 on Monday night to move within one win of their second Stanley Cup title in three years. Los Angeles leads 3-0 and can claim the Cup on Wednesday night in New York. The Kings have already survived three Game 7s on the road, so this amount of success has their confidence soaring. Quick hardly showed it when he took the podium wearing a black hooded sweatshirt. “I don’t think it would be any different if we were down 3-0,” Quick said.
“We’re just trying to win a game in a couple days here. That’s the focus.” After the Rangers blew two-goal leads in each of the first two games of the championship round in Los Angeles, they came home and couldn’t get anything going against Quick. The All-Star was sharp early and in the middle when the Kings built their lead. Not even six power plays could jump-start New York’s offense. “We did a lot of things the right way,” Quick said. “Now we get ready for the next one. The fourth one is always the most difficult.” Los Angeles escaped with two overtime wins at home and then took complete command inside Madison Square Garden. The Kings grabbed their first lead of the series on Carter’s goal and then stretched the edge to three goals in the second — something the Rangers failed to do in California. While there has been only one comeback from a 3-0 hole in the finals, the
Kings erased such a deficit in the first round against San Jose. “Well, we know it’s possible,” Richards said. “The last game is always the hardest. We played a good game. We’re going to have to play a better game if we’re going to want to have success.” New York’s Henrik Lundqvist was hardly at fault on the goals, and finished with 12 saves. He was just outdone by Quick, who was perfect at the other end of the ice. “You try to stay positive right now, but it’s tough. It’s really tough,” Lundqvist said. “We are doing a lot of good things, but you look at the goals, and we put two in our own net. Then just a tough play on the third one.” Quick, a Connecticut native who grew up a fan of the Rangers and 1994 Stanley Cup-winning goalie Mike Richter, made a brilliant save with his stick blade to deny Derick Brassard shortly after a Rangers power play. That stop
came on the heels of Brassard having two chances during the advantage off a rebound of Brad Richards’ shot. Brassard’s first attempt was blocked, and the second was stopped by Quick. The Kings goalie was also on his toes just 8 seconds into the third when Chris Kreider came in alone but was stopped in tight. That eliminated the optimism the sold-out, towelwaving crowd had of a big comeback. “You’ve got to finish in this game. It’s a performance-oriented business,” Rangers coach Alain Vigneault said. Los Angeles took its first in-game lead in the series when Carter scored his 10th of the playoffs on the Kings’ fifth shot. Carter snapped a hard drive that clipped the skate of diving defenseman Dan Girardi in front and caromed inside the right post with 0.7 seconds left. The red and green lights behind Lundqvist both flashed while the Kings cel-
ebrated. At no point did Los Angeles hold the lead at home in the first two games until they ended each contest with an overtime goal. “It was an unfortunate goal to give up at the end of the period,” Rangers defenseman Ryan McDonagh said. “I thought our guys stayed with it and tried to come out with some energy, and created a lot. It was a tough one.” The quick pace played into the Rangers’ preferred style, but New York managed only four shots in the first period. The Rangers led 2-0 in each of the first two games but couldn’t hold on. They nearly took the lead again when Mats Zuccarello faced an empty net at the left post, yet he was stopped by Quick’s lunging stick. The Rangers’ early 2-0 lead in the series opener became a 3-2 loss when Justin Williams scored in overtime. They held three twogoal leads in Game 2, only to be thwarted when Kings captain Dustin Brown won
it in double overtime on Saturday. Quick had plenty of support in front of him to post his second shutout in these playoffs and ninth overall in the postseason. “The team played great in front of me, cleared out a lot of rebounds that I left in front,” Quick said. Muzzin made it 2-0 at 4:17 of the second after former Rangers forward Marian Gaborik and Anze Kopitar worked the puck up the right wing wall to Muzzin at the point for a shot that struck New York’s Martin St. Louis and found its way past Lundqvist. Mike Richards finished a 2-on-1 with Trevor Lewis when his attempted pass across bounced back to him off McDonagh and was put it with 2:46 left in the second. NOTES: Gaborik played his first game at the Garden since being traded by the Rangers in 2013. ... The Rangers are 3 for 44 on the power play at home in the playoffs. Los Angeles went 1 for 4.
Towns leads Virginia past Maryland and to CWS CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. (AP) — Virginia’s Josh Sborz last started a month ago, and when he walked two Maryland hitters in the first inning of the deciding game of the Charlottesville Regional it looked like the decision to put the sophomore back on the mound might backfire. A short conversation with third baseman Kenny Towns settled him down, and one double-play grounder paved the way for seven shutout innings and an 11-2 win in Game 3 Monday night that sent the Cavaliers to the College World Series for the third time in six seasons. Sborz (5-4) allowed four hits and three walks while striking out nine and was coaxed out of the Cavaliers’ dugout in the top of the eighth when the soldout home crowd at Davenport Field demanded a
curtain call. “It felt amazing. There’s never been a better experience than that in my life,” Sborz said. The national No. 3 Cavaliers, the highest remaining seed in the CWS, will play Mississippi on Sunday. Ole Miss defeated Louisiana-Lafayette to end a 42-year CWS drought. Monday night’s 13-hit rout culminated a weekend comeback for Virginia, which lost the first game of the Super Regional before cruising to victory Sunday and Monday. The win boosted Virginia’s record to 3-1 in deciding games of Super Regionals. Towns went 3 for 4, driving in four runs on a triple and a single to force Maryland starter Bobby Ruse out of the game after 2 1-3 innings. Ruse (73) gave up six runs on six hits and a walk.
Sborz has had control issues much of the season, and after pitching primarily as the Cavaliers’ No. 2 starter much of the season, he was moved out of the weekend rotation in May. Virginia coach Brian O’Connor, however, said he never doubted Sborz’s abilities, which include a fastball that was still hitting the mid-90s in the seventh inning Monday. “That double play was huge,” O’Connor said of the slider that Sborz threw to force an inning-ending grounder by Maryland third baseman Jose Cuas in the top of the first. “It had so much to do with his confidence and ability to attack the batters. He’s certainly had his wild streaks at times, but he always keeps the game in check.” Ruse could not do the same for Maryland. Vir-
ginia jumped on the Terrapins junior in the bottom of the first after he hit shortstop Daniel Pinero in the back. Right fielder Joe McCarthy hit a line drive up the middle off of Ruse’s leg, and left fielder Derek Fisher followed up by driving the first pitch up the middle to score Pinero from second. Towns then blasted a triple off the left-field wall that drove in two more runs. Maryland left fielder Tim Lewis had to retrieve his glove after leaping in vain to make the grab and losing it over the wall. “Bobby has been a strike thrower for us all year and has been very effective,” Maryland coach John Szefc said. “You’ve got to realize what we ran into tonight. (Virginia) is by far the most talented team we’ve played all year.
Not even close. . That is an absolute college baseball monster there.” Towns came up to bat again in the third inning with two on and Maryland pausing to discuss pitching strategy. Whatever they discussed didn’t work, as Towns sent a 1-1 pitch into left field to score two more runs and make it 5-0. After Maryland reliever Tayler Stiles walked the bases loaded, Virginia center fielder Brandon Downes hit a grounder up the middle to close out the scoring for the inning and effectively put the game out of reach. “It’s huge for us,” Downes said of the opportunity to score early and clinch a trip to the College World Series on their home field. “The past two seasons, we had our seasons end with other teams
dog-piling on our field.” Maryland scored two runs in the eighth when senior shortstop Blake Schmit hit a two-run, two-out double down the third-base line off Cavaliers reliever Austin Young. Virginia called in relief ace Nick Howard to end the threat and he induced a groundout from Lewis on his first pitch. The Cavaliers re sponded in the bottom of the eighth with five runs to pad their lead to 11-2 and prompt the crowd to begin chanting, “ACC,” in reference to the Terrapins’ final game as a league rival before their move to the Big Ten. Second baseman Branden Cogswell and shortstop Daniel Pinero each drove in two runs for Virginia. Schmit went 2 for 4 with two RBIs for Maryland.
TCU squeaks past Pepperdine, headed to Omaha FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) — TCU had already tied the game in the top of the ninth when No. 9 batter Kyle Bacak came to the plate with a runner on third base. With a 1-0 count, Bacak got the sign that sent the Horned Frogs back to the College World Series, executing a suicide squeeze bunt as the Horned Frogs rallied for a 6-5 victory over Pepperdine on Monday. “I really wasn’t thinking about a squeeze or anything like that,” he said. “It kind of caught me by surprise at first, but it made sense.” The Frogs (47-16), the
visiting team in Game 3 despite hosting the super regional, started the ninth with three consecutive hits off Pepperdine closer Eric Karch (4-2) that included Dylan Fitzgerald’s tying RBI double. There was an infield popout before Bacak bunted as Jerrick Suiter, who had reached on a highchopping infield single, charged home from third. Closer Riley Ferrell (2-1) got the final six outs, leaving two runners on base and Waves two-way threat Aaron Brown on deck when Bryan Langlois struck out to end the game.
TCU is in the College World Series for the second time in five seasons and plays Sunday against fellow Big 12 team Texas Tech. A third Big 12 team, Texas, is on the other side of the bracket. “That’s all we’ve ever talked about,” said Kevin Cron, the junior first baseman who homered and had an RBI double. “ It’s a pretty unbelievable feeling.” Brandon Caruso and Brown homered for the Waves (43-18), the West Coast Conference regularseason champ trying to get to the College World Se-
ries for the first time since winning the 1992 national championship. Steve Rodriguez, their 11th-year head coach, was then an All-American infielder for Pepperdine. “To be able to come in this place and do what we did, I thought was very impressive,” said Rodriguez, who has a roster loaded with freshmen and advanced as a No. 3 seed in the regional at Cal Poly. The Big 12 tournament champion Frogs have won 32 of their last 36 games, and had won 10 in a row before losing 3-2 Sunday
in Game 2. Their fourth super regional in six years was their first at home. “I dreamed of this, playing for the right to go Omaha in front of our fans,” said Jim Schlossnagle, in his 11th season as TCU’s coach. The first batter Ferrell faced in the eighth with two men on was Brad Anderson, whose sac fly put Pepperdine up 5-4. TCU tied the game at 4-all with two runs in the sixth. Boomer White, who had an inning-ending strikeout in the third with the bases loaded, had
a two-out RBI single and Cron followed with a runscoring double, an inning after his solo homer.

Chisenhall notches 9 RBIs in thrashing of Rangers
AP
Lonnie Chisenhall is congratulated by teammate Carlos Santana Monday. ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Maybe there’s a little Lonnie Baseball to go with Johnny Football in Cleveland. Lonnie Chisenhall left quite an impression in Johnny Manziel’s home state. Chisenhall had nine RBIs and three home runs in a five-hit game, Michael Brantley scored five times and the Cleveland Indians beat the Texas Rangers 17-7 Monday night. “I know a day like today is kind of a once-in-a-lifetime thing,” said Chisenhall, who raised his batting average to .385 but needs more plate appearances to quality for the league lead. “I’m enjoying it as much as I can. I don’t know the history of it, who’s done it in the past.” The history is pretty exclusive. Major League Baseball said it was the first time a player went 5 for 5 with
three homers and nine RBIs, since the RBI became a statistic in 1920. He also is only the fourth big leaguer to have at least five hits, nine RBIs and three homers in a game – first since Boston’s Fred Lynn in 1975, according to STATS. “He just wasn’t missing,” Rangers manager Ron Washington said, who team is winless in the past seven series at home. “Breaking balls, fastballs, it didn’t matter.” The only other nine-RBI game in Cleveland history was by Chris James in a 20-6 victory over Oakland on May 4, 1991. Chisenhall, who had the second multihomer game of his career, finished 10 for 17 with four homers and 13 RBIs in a trip to Texas that ended with Cleveland’s first road winning streak of the season. Before his third homer,
Chisenhall and Jason Kipnis danced in the dugout together during a brief break after home plate umpire Jim Wolf was knocked out of the game when he was hit in the mask by a foul ball. Maybe they knew what was coming. “As hard as it is to beat those dance moves, his swing was prettier,” Kipnis said. “He’s attacking the ball right now, and he’s swinging at the right pitches and he’s learning about himself as a hitter. Right now, he’s in one of those zones when he attacks and he’s just not missing.” The Indians won three straight in the four-game set after coming to the Lone Star State with the worst road record in the majors. They’re headed to Kansas City to continue the first of three 10-game trips this season. Cleveland hit five hom-
ers, won for the ninth time in 10 games and pulled within two games of Detroit just three weeks after trailing by 10 1/2.Chisenhall had two-run homers in the second and fourth innings before hitting a three-run shot down the right field line in the eighth to give the Indians a 17-6 lead. It was his second homer off Texas reliever Scott Baker, who was trying to give the Rangers a long outing but allowed 11 hits and nine runs in five innings. “I mean, he’s fouled off about four pitches were out of the strike zone and then just gets something that he can handle,” Cleveland manager Terry Francona said. “He feels good about himself. Again, I’m stating the obvious.” Chisenhall had the first three-homer game for the Indians since Sept. 17, 2010, by Shin-Soo Choo, who now
plays for the Rangers. The left-handed hitter had an RBI single in the first and a run-scoring double in the sixth. The homers and RBIs were career highs for Chisenhall. He had five hits earlier this season at Toronto. Texas right-hander Nick Martinez (1-3) gave up eight runs in two innings in a matchup of rookie starters. Cleveland left-hander T.J. House didn’t make it to the fifth inning and missed a chance for his first major league win despite taking a 9-1 lead into the third. Scott Atchison (3-0) pitched 1 2-3 scoreless innings. Brantley tied his career high with his 10th home run for a 10-4 lead in the fourth and reached base all five times. George Kottaras had the other Cleveland homer, his third. Texas’ Alex Rios, who
went 2 for 4 and is the AL’s top hitter at .335, had his league-leading eighth triple, driving home Adrian Beltre in the third. Michael Choice hit his third homer in the past five games, giving him six for the season. Jason Kipnis had three singles and four RBIs for the Indians, including a two-run single in a five-run second inning. NOTES: The others with five hits, three homers and 9 RBIs since 1920, according to STATS, were Gil Hodges for the Brooklyn Dodgers in 1950 against the Boston Braves and Walker Cooper for Cincinnati against the Chicago Cubs in 1949. ... Chisenhall’s outburst was the first with at least three homers and nine RBIs in the majors since the Yankees’ Alex Rodriguez had three homers and 10 RBIs against the Los Angeles Angels on April 26, 2005.
Subway strike suspended in Sao Paolo, may hit Rio SAO PAULO (AP) — Striking subway workers went back to work on Tuesday, but the union warned it could walk off the job again on Thursday – the day Sao Paulo hosts the opening match of Brazil’s World Cup – if workers fired over the strike are not returned to their posts. Union members voted Monday night to temporarily suspend the strike they began last week, but also decided they would take a new vote Wednesday to determine whether to resume the work stoppage Thursday. Meanwhile, a union re p re s e nt i ng s u bway workers in Rio de Janeiro said members would vote Tuesday evening on
whether to strike. The actions are a severe threat for World Cup fans because the subways in both cities are being counted on as the main way for spectators to get to the stadiums. Union officials in Sao Paulo met with the state government Monday afternoon but failed to reach agreement. Subway workers went on strike Thursday and threw already congested traffic into chaos in the city of 11 million. The union’s general secretary Alex Fernandes said it is now giving the government two days to give jobs back to 42 workers who were fired over the strike. Sao Paulo union members clashed with police
earlier Monday when they tried to hold a rally in a central station. Officers used tear gas and muscle to push the strikers out of the station. Altino Prazeres, president of the union leading the strike, said almost all of the 8,000 subway employees had been off the job. Marching along with workers on a central street, he said they were not interested in disrupting the World Cup. “I love soccer! I support our national team. The point is not to stop the Cup,” he said. “We want to resolve this today and all are willing to negotiate.” Prazeres said workers were willing to reduce their demand for a 12 per-
cent pay increase if the state-run subway company offered more benefits, but managers refused. A labor court has ruled that the salary rise should be 8.7 percent. A spokeswoman for the subway company declined to answer questions. Sao Paulo state officials told reporters that 42 striking workers had been fired. A Sao Paulo labor court over the weekend fined the union $175,000 for the first four days of the strike and said it would add $220,000 for each additional day the work stoppage continued. Other groups have supported the strike, saying workers deserve the raise and the government ought
to invest more in public transportation. But some people are angry because of the longer commutes. Adriana Silva, who works as a cashier at a jewelry store downtown, said it had taken her three hours to get to work from the eastern tip of the city. “Why do this now? Why so close to the Cup?” she said. “Who they end up hurting more is us. This has to stop.” The subway strike was the latest unrest to hit Brazil in the run-up to the World Cup. Teachers remain on strike in Rio and routinely block streets with rallies. Police in several cities have gone on strike, but are back at work now.
There has also been a steady drumbeat of anti-government protests across Brazil blasting spending on the World Cup and demanding improvements in woeful public services. The protests that began last year have diminished in size but not in frequency, and they have sometimes disrupted traffic.
