Shealy gets highest ISU finish at NCAA By Maddy.Arnold @iowastatedaily.com Michelle Shealy tied for fifth in the balance beam final on Sunday, the highest finish ever by a Cyclone at the NCAA Championships. Before the individual event finals, Shealy performed in the all-around competition at a semifinal meet on
Online:
Friday. She scored 39.05 and finished in 13th place. Shealy scored a season-high 9.825 on floor exercise at the semifinal meet. She also scored 9.550 on vault and 9.775 on the uneven bars. Shealy tied a career-high 9.900 on her balance beam routine and came in second place in that event at the semifinal meet. To qualify for the beam fi-
nal, Shealy had to place in the top four of her semifinal including ties. For the semifinal meet, Shealy added a new skill to her beam routine to make it more difficult. She added a Gaynor — a dismount containing a backwards flip while moving forward — in hopes of increasing her score enough to qualify for beam finals. At the event final, Shealy scored
9.8375 on her beam routine, finishing tied for fifth out of nine qualifiers. Florida’s Bridget Sloan won the beam title with a score of 9.900. Shealy earned All-America honors by qualifying for an individual event final. She is the ISU gymnastics team’s first All-American since 2007 and sixth all-time.

Celebration
‘Smooth’ Veishea ends Most citation numbers were down from previous years By Charles.Obrien @iowastatedaily.com Veishea 2013 has come and gone without too many problems compared to past Veishea celebrations marred with memories of riots and injury. This year’s celebration was successful and memorable for all the right reasons.
“Every one of our categories was lower this year except for criminal citations, which were up from last year,” said Sgt. Brad Baker of the Ames Police. According to the Ames Police records, arrests decreased from 62 arrests during Veishea 2012 to 43 arrests during Veishea 2013. Citations, though, slightly increased from 46 people cited last year to 52 this year. The department also had 346 calls, down from 377 calls in 2012. The Ames Police started keeping track of their Veishea weekend statistics at 3 p.m. Friday and

went until 7 a.m. Sunday. Baker stated the drop in arrests was due in part to the proactive efforts of the ISU and Ames Police Departments along with the help of the university. He also highlighted the cold weather as playing a part in the drop. “From what I saw, the weekend started out pretty busy, but then it slowed down and ended up being a pretty smooth Veishea,” Baker said. Baker pointed to the two car flipping incidents
Photo: Jessica Langr/Iowa State Daily Anna Prisacari, graduate student in chemistry and president of the Graduate and Professional Students Senate for 2013-14, hopes to address issues such as heath insurance for graduate students as well as leadership.
The Graduate and Professional Students Senate will be installing the new executive council members at the Monday meeting. Anna Prisacari, the Senate’s 20132014 president, showed interest in the position in November 2012 while she held another executive council position as the chief information officer. “I really enjoyed working and getting involved with university policies and trying my best to help graduate and professional students,” Prisacari said. Prisacari is a doctorate student in chemistry. Prisacari will be working closely with Brian Tlach, vice president of Graduate and Professional Students Senate, to improve the organization. Tlach is a doctorate student in chemistry. Two main resolutions that
Prisacari and Tlach have for the upcoming term are graduate health insurance and leadership and involvement. For graduate students, premiums are paid by the department or program for teaching and research assistants, Tlach said. The graduate health insurance given to the graduate students, however, is not extended to the families of the students. “The graduate students that are on assisstance-ship have really good health insurance through Thielen [Student Health Center], but unfortunately for the families, it is very costprohibited to have it,” Tlach said. The executive council will work with the Students and Scholar Health Insurance Program Office on this resolution. The second resolution is the council would like graduate and professional students to be more active

>>VEISHEA.p1 as the ones garnering the most attention during the weekend. The first car incident took place at the 300 block of Welch Avenue around midnight on Saturday. A group of people were seen rocking a car back and forth until it flipped onto its side. One person from the Welch Avenue incident has been arrested so far. Joshua Ryan of
Spencer, Iowa, was charged with second degree criminal mischief and is not believed to be an ISU student, according to Ames Police. The second car flipping incident happened at 2:25 a.m. at 2035 Sunset Drive, a few blocks from the Welch Avenue incident. Currently, the Ames Police have no suspects related to the Sunset Drive incident or additional suspects for the Welch
Avenue one. The police have released a picture retrieved from a social media site that shows the people flipping the car on the 300 block of Welch Avenue. Ames Police are asking for the community’s help in finding the rest of the individuals responsible for flipping the two cars as they continue their ongoing investigation. Kyle Dirks, Butch’s Auto and Towing Services em-
ployee, said the company dealt with the two incidents and flipped the cars back onto their wheels. Dirk said the car on Welch Avenue had scratches on the side along with a line down its side caused by the flip. “It was a pretty simple recovery that took a little over five minutes to do. It was just drunk people who flipped it over,” Dirks said. Baker stated overall, this year’s Veishea was tamer compared to some years’ past celebrations. “It was a pretty uneventful weekend. Arrests were down and besides the two car flipping incidents, everything went pretty smooth,” Baker said.
>>GPSS.p1 in pursuing and securing leadership roles and opportunities while still in the graduate and professional programs. “Every graduate student must participant in some level of involvement, preferably some leadership position by the time they graduate,” Tlach said. The resolution is to prepare students and create a more leadership-oriented individual who will either go into academia or industry life, Prisacari said. The two resolutions will be presented at the Graduate and Professional Students Senate meeting on Monday for approval to be worked on during the upcoming summer months. The addition of a graduate research conference is another idea that the president and vice president are looking to add to the program.
Meet the president and vice president Anna Prisacari is the new president for the next academic year Brian Tlach is the new vice president. Two main resolutions for the upcoming term are graduate health insurance and leadership and involvement. Brian Tlach is from Britt, Iowa. He completed his undergraduate education at Loras College with a bachelor of science degree in chemistry in 2008. Tlach plans to graduate in May 2014 and has been involved with the
senate for two years. He served first as a senator, then as the University Relations/ Legislative Affairs Chair and will serve this upcoming year as vice president Anna Prisacari is from Chisinau, Moldova. She attended St. Ambrose University and majored in international business, marketing, French and political science. She graduated in May 2007 and completed her MBA, also at St. Ambrose, in May 200. Prisacari has also served on the senate as the Chief Information Officer.
“We want to promote more network opportunities and collaborative opportunities for grad students. We know a lot of students, for example, come from multi-
disciplinary programs so that one of the other reasons why we wanted to create a graduate research conference,” Prisacari said.

THINK VINTAGE SHOPPING Anything But New offers wide selection By Ian Laughead ISD Style Writer Earth Day might have been a holiday created to celebrate our environment, but it’s also a box on the calendar that Photo: Ian should have you Laughead/Iowa State Daily reevaluating your choices, especially when shopping. And, with song lyrics espousing thrift shops full of alligator shoes and velour tracksuits, there has never been a better time to get into vintage. Anything But New on Ames’ Main Street isn’t all just the old knickknacks or dusty fine china as it looks from the outside. Tucked into the front corner of the antique shop is a vintage clothing section full of handp i c ke d
items from as far back to the 1940s. Beyond the 70-year-old prom dress cascading in pink ruffles and evening dress in red pleats, there are some unique, wearable items that could make quite the statement in any modern wardrobe. A selection of inexpensive silk scarves are an easy entry point for the first timer, and the store stocks them in every pattern imaginable. We saw a great blazer with just the right eighties edge in a blue check. At one point in its life, it was probably part of a career woman’s power suit, but now it can stand alone any Friday night with a chunky necklace over a pair of black leggings. And, that is part of the beauty of vintage shopping. The art is in the mix and match, and the rules all fly out of the window. Dresses from every time period — store-bought, tailor-made, or homesewn — all have delightful period details and silhouettes, and each one reminds us that for all the selection of vintage-inspired clothing that a modern Forever 21 has, it doesn’t come close to the character of the real deal. Nothing says vintage like hats and those old-timey accessories we’ve all somehow forgotten about, and this store doesn’t skip on the dramatics in the headwear department. Made exclusively of dyed feathers, beads or even mock-croc, here there are arguably hats for every occasion and probably a lot of occasions that don’t even exist anymore. The best ones are unwearable in this age, but if the British and their fascinators have taught us anything in these Kate Middleton-worshiping days, it’s that a statement hat makes
any event a spectacular occasion. Anything But New is not limited to only a women’s selection, however; menswear fills its own corner haberdashery, and it is every bit as interesting. Some pieces are mystifying, like an all-in-one men’s undergarment that defies real description, but others are ripe for the picking. A recent shipment of hats are a definite highlight with everything from conservative black driving caps to a show-stopping beaver fur Stetson hat. Macklemore and his “Thrift Shop” don’t have anything on this. And, if that hat shows the store has a bit of a sense of humor, then a very heavy suit straight out of the ‘70s takes it to another level. If the suit were not a sensory overload on its own, its past owner pinned a grainy photograph of himself in the suit from back when it was brand new. Where the men’s section really shines, however, is its smaller accessories. The displays of tiny tie clips and tie tacks have all the charm of a vintage period pieces but with none of the costly dry cleaning bills. Luckily for the customer, the husband-and-wife owners keep the costs in mind, pricing most of their vintage clothing selection under $30 an item. And sure enough, even the most extravagant of pieces in the store, like a wedding gown, clock in somewhere around $120. The stock constantly changes depending on who is selling to them, and unlike any store you might find at a mall, the inventory can shift dramatically in the course of a few weeks, meaning every time you come in, you’ll have a very different experience.

Editorial:
Events held at campus’ high expense In the aftermath of Veishea 2013, students traveling across Central Campus might notice the poor condition of that serene, picturesque, award-winning lawn. Unfortunately, the past several months of renovating Curtiss Hall has turned formerly — and precariously — grassy parts of the lawn around Curtiss and Ross Halls into dirt. Although there are several damaged spots around campus, that part in particular looks like a small-scale noman’s-land between entrenchments at the Battle of the Somme. The lunches on Central Campus during Veishea, like those held during Homecoming, also damaged the integrity of the lawn. Although the cold spell of weather that has persisted until late April has certainly not helped the grass thrive, it would be an untenable position to deny that hundreds of human feet walking over the same path day after day or standing in lines has been the main cause of stunted growth. Mulching the most high-traffic areas and placing broad particleboard pieces on the ground for people to walk on has not helped, nor has the university’s practice of allowing motorized vehicles, such as golf carts and gators, to drive on the particularly vulnerable grass that abuts the sidewalks. As the Veishea and Homecoming committees surely are already planning next year’s events, a good thing to consider would be their environmental impact on the areas immediately surrounding us all, that Iowa State takes pride in and that the Office of Admissions shows off to prospective students. Like the buildings around campus that provide places to study and socialize, Central Campus is an investment. Unlike buildings, however, which are not made of living things, ensuring that Central Campus is a grassy, treeaccented green space is a more timeconsuming proposition. Additionally, destroying the work that goes into maintaining Central Campus is a much easier task than creating it. One possible resolution to this problem that has resulted from environmental unconsciousness could be a simple repositioning of the tents used to host the lunches. Instead of pitching the tents on either the north or south side of the sidewalk that connects Beardshear and Curtiss Halls, the Veishea and Homecoming committees might consider placing the tents over the sidewalks. If the tents straddled a walkway that was already paved and the tables used to serve lunch were right up to the sidewalk, some of the damage would probably be mitigated. There might be a couple concerns with that simple solution. One could object that people needing to cross Central Campus would find their way obstructed. There are, however, several routes across Central Campus, all of which are easy to find. Additionally, there is nothing wrong with blazing one’s own trail across, taking to treading on grass rather than cement. Or, one could say, there is some university policy that governs the location of the tents or prohibits putting them over the sidewalk. If that is the case, administrators and other parties responsible for making that policy should consider changing it or making exemptions. If Iowa State is going to continue to take pride in Central Campus, common sense must rule over policy.

Immigration
Reformation key to growth Changing immigration laws provides opportunities to all “It is a legacy item for [President Barack Obama],” said David Axelrod, former top advisor to Obama, about the proposed immigration reform bill. “Legacy” is right. However, this bill the Gang of 8 is proposing does not put immigrants on a smooth path to citizenship. If Congress would pass a bill with more liberal reform, there will likely be a boost in economic output and a drop in unemployment rates, but their current proposal is much too conservative. Marco Rubio, charismatic GOP leader (R-Fla.), even said, “[This bill] will make it harder, longer and more expensive for the millions of immigrants living illegally in America to achieve legal status.” In this column I will discuss some of the things the Gang of 8 should implement into the immigration reform bill to improve the U.S. economy. One common argument against immigration reform is, “These immigrants are taking U.S. jobs!” However, a study done by Giovanni Peri confirms a different outcome. His research revealed that long-term effects of increased immigration are positive, showing that jobs many Americans found undesirable based on their educational background were taken by low-skilled workers who had immigrated from another country. Furthermore, Peri’s study found there was an approximate increase of $5,100 in the United States per year in average income for his control group. This seems to defy logic, but Peri explained, “As young immigrants with low schooling levels take manually intensive construction jobs, the construction companies that employ them have opportunities to expand. This increases the demand for construction supervisors, coordinators, designers and so on.” This expansion of jobs in the private sector is not exclusive to the construction industry. Those arguing against immigration reform based on the idea that the U.S. government should first take care of its own citizens do not have a strong argument. The numbers show not only a decrease in unemployment rates but also an increase in average income
By Connor.Clarke @iowastatedaily.com per worker, and job opportunities for skilled positions requiring education are in higher demand because companies are expanding and more positions are opening up. Furthermore, keeping immigrants out of the United States is costly, taxing citizens to enforce border security. Since 1992, the United States has increased spending on border security by increasing the U.S. border patrol budget by 714 percent (from $326 million to $2.7 billion). It is ironic the U.S. government spends billions of dollars to keep immigrants out when they could actually be gaining money by allowing them to come in. This is because in the labor market, employers who hire unauthorized workers for lower wages cause others to follow suit in order to compete. If these illegal immigrants were given citizenship and the full rights of workers, there would be a dramatic increase in production and economic output. As Raul HinojosaOjeda put it, “Higher wages translate into more tax revenue and increased consumer purchasing power, which benefits the public treasury and the U.S. economy as a whole.” However, there are many flaws in the Gang of 8’s proposal. The proposal for more strict border security will not help the economy, because it does not allow for eager, hard-working immigrants to seek a better life for their family in the United States. Thus, expanding tax revenue and consumer purchasing, which would also improve business, who is selling their products to this broad-new market. We tend to forget immigrants are not just workers but taxpayers and consumers,too. It is amazing how economists who researched how immigration reform affected the economy
Co urt esy
in the 1980s and 1990s found that the economy improved as a result of more immigrants, because the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986 allowed for 3 million new citizens. The act also enacted stricter border control and made hiring illegal immigrants a crime. If the Gang of 8 would enact more liberal legislation, allowing for an easier path to citizenship and open borders, the economy would most certainly improve. However, they are not making it much easier for illegal immigrants currently in the United States to become citizens and are tightening down on border security. In conclusion, giving citizenship to current illegal immigrants and granting citizenship to new immigrants who pass a criminal background check, would greatly increase economic growth in the United States. The historical evidence is there: The IRCA raised worker’s wages, increased consumption, created more jobs and increased tax revenue, resulting in an improved economy in many aspects. This immigration reform bill could be what Obama needs to get the economy up and going again.

Task force aims to build transparency
T
ransparency for colleges has become a very important thing. When scandals pop up, the media obsesses over it until somebody is held responsible. Due to these scandals, such as the sex abuse scandal at University of Pennsylvania, or in 2009 when the University of Illinois gave some prospective students special consideration for admission due to political connections, it has become even more important for colleges and universities to be as transparent as they can be to the public. Iowa State is no exception. Recently, the university found out that some athletic staff have pushed the boundaries of permissible contact for athletes they are recruiting. The guidelines for permissible contact are set up by the the National Collegiate Athletic Association. Between 2008-2011, coaches and staff called and texted prospective athletes during periods when no contact was allowed. In response to this discovery, the university conducted an investigation and reported their findings to the NCAA and issued a public statement. The University General information: The Iowa State Daily is an independent student newspaper established in 1890 and written, edited, and sold by students
By Hannah.Dankbar @iowastatedaily.com found that 1,484 impermissible calls were made from 2008 to 2011 across 18 sports. The Athletics Department reported that they will not say anything about this matter until the NCAA makes a decision about what they will do about it. The incident “constitute(s) a major infractions case as a whole.” Iowa State did a great job of handling this matter with the NCAA, however, their censoring of the information they gave out to the public is inadequate. Hopefully, as things move forward, Iowa State will step up their game and give the public more information. Just as this happened, the new Transparency Task Force that was created by the Board of Regents because they would like the state universities to become more trans-

parent, came into operation. They have two goals: to recommend the best way to respond to public information requests and to recommend the best process for further access to public information that is of interest to Iowans. This new task force met recently for the first time. Each public university had the opportunity to present how they make information available to the public through their website and how they respond to questions from the media. The task force plans on holding a series of public forums across the state to get a response from the public on how the universities can be more transparent. Iowa State reported that during the 2012 calendar year, there were about 1,500 media contacts and around 300 news releases. They reported that Iowa State aims to be transparent while being respectful of sensitive information. For a large institution that is funded with state money, transparency is a very important thing. That being said, we do need to remember that there is some information that is not supposed to be made public. A few weeks ago, it was

discovered that the University of Iowa was giving out federally protected student information to the sheriff’s office to determine who can and cannot receive a permit to carry a weapon. The information includes details about a student’s academic performance and any disciplinary issues with the university. That information cannot be used by the sheriff to determine if an individual can receive a permit. In this case, the university should keep that information to themselves. As that case shows, it is important for the public universities to closely work with the Board of Regents to know where the lines should be drawn. This is something that all colleges and universities will constantly be having to monitor. There is no one-time answer. Knowing which and how much information to give out can be a very hard thing to decide and must remain a priority for public institutions

Iowa State ends up with loss, records After two close games — a 6-5 win on Friday and a 6-4 loss on Saturday — Iowa State (19-24, 4-8 Big 12) lost 15-5 against Texas Tech (29-21, 3-9) on Sunday. With the loss coming after four pitching changes and two five-run innings, ISU coach Stacy Gemeinhardt-Cesler was not pleased with her team’s performance. “We’ve got to throw strikes; we can’t walk people like that,” Gemeinhardt-Cesler said. “Once we actually do throw strikes, we have to make the play behind them. I mean that is just ridiculous.” After four innings of struggling offensively as well, Erica Miller helped her team score three runs in the fifth to keep the Cyclones in the game momentarily. With her 45th RBI of the season, Miller set a new ISU record. “It’s really nice, but it’s a team record,” Miller said. “It helps me a lot when people get on base, and all I have to do it hit a single to get them in. I just try to put the ball in play as much as I can no matter what the situation is.” Another record set on Sunday was the team’s steals record with 71 in one season. Freshman Brittany Gomez stole two bases on Sunday to seal the record for the team. “It’s not just me. It’s everybody in general that has that many steals,” Gomez said. “It just happened to be me who was the one who broke it.” Although the records — individual and team — were broken, the coaches and the players could not ignore the feeling of the loss after the game was over. “If we play like we played today, then we’re not going to win a lot of games,” Gemeinhardt-Cesler said. “We’ve been playing well at home, and we have a great crowd, and [the way we played Sunday was] embarrassing. We can do a lot better.” — Isaac Hunt

By Lauren.Hedrick @iowastatedaily.com RHODES, Iowa — Although the typical Iowa weather conditions were nothing short of merciless, the ISU women’s golf team was still able to lock down a successful finish at the Big 12 Championship on Sunday. The No. 28 Cyclones battled through wind and rain to finish in third place at the conference meet. Scores were high across the board in both the first and third rounds, but ISU coach Christie Martens said she is pleased with how her team played. “We wanted to be in contention the last day, which we were,” Martens said. “They showed a lot of heart today even though conditions were really tough.” Iowa State tallied a 912, posting its highest-placing finish in a Big 12 Championship in school history. Punpaka Phuntumabamrung, senior, paced the Cyclones throughout the entire meet en route to earning Big 12 All-Tournament honors for the third time in her career. She finished the meet with 221 (77-68-76), placing her second overall to record the highest finish of a Cyclone in school history. She has placed in the top 10 in all four of her Big 12 Championship tournaments for Iowa State. “Big 12 is the tournament that everyone is looking for,” Phuntumabamrung said. “I’m glad that I did a pretty good job this year

since this is my last year, too.” Martens acclaimed Phuntumabamrung’s performance, saying that her play was impressive. “[Phuntumabamrung] is such a great pressure player, and she showed that today,” Martens said. “She feels comfortable that she can play with anyone in the country, and she is what you need as a senior leader.” Like all scores, Phuntumabamrung’s first round was 11 strokes higher than her second and as consistent as the Thailand native is, the extremes of the weather conditions is adamant. She said it is im-
portant to keep mentally focused and confident when facing these threats. “The most important thing is you just go shot by shot and really focus at all times,” Phuntumabamrung said. “You have to have a plan at all times and be focused.” True freshman Casja Persson carded a three-round score of 226, firing a 72 in the final round of play en route to All-Tournament honors and a tie for fifth. Persson said she is very pleased with her performance. “It’s so fun to be out here on our home course,” Persson said. “I feel like I played solid the whole weekend.”
Persson’s cumulative performance featured nine birdies and 31 pars. Persson said her confidence really helped in her success. “I think that I played solid with confidence, and you always hit bad shots. You just have to take it in a good way and keep going,” Persson said. No. 17 Oklahoma State took home first only two strokes ahead of No. 23 Baylor. Baylor’s Lauren Taylor, the 2012 British Amateur champion, was the individual medalist with 213. The Cyclones will be back in action at the NCAA Regional on May 9-11.

Running backs boast talent, depth at spring game New players prove abilities for fall season By Dylan.Montz @iowastatedaily.com On an intense last day of spring practice for ISU coach Paul Rhoads, his arguably deepest position on the team was one he was most pleased with: the running backs. Redshirt sophomore DeVondrick Nealy grabbed Rhoads’ attention in Saturday’s spring game because of his 142 yards and two touchdowns with his longest run coming on a 20yard scamper. “DeVondrick Nealy [is] certainly running like we thought he was capable of and going into his third season,” Rhoads said. “[It is] very encouraging to see.” Even though Nealy was pleased with his performance, he said he needs to start trusting in his offensive linemen more than he has. With Iowa State’s implementation of the pistol offense into its playbook, trusting the linemen may be more important this season than it

was before. “It’s still a lot of things that I need to get better on, running my track and trusting my offensive linemen [that they’re] going to get the job done and just doing the things I need to do to be a better runner,” Nealy said. “Actually, it’s just me just trusting, trusting, trusting, trusting and that will make it much better.” While Nealy gained the most yards of any running back on Saturday, he was not the only one who stood out. The ISU backfield will also be returning redshirt seniors James White and Jeff Woody, redshirt sophomore Rob Standard and junior college transfer Aaron Wimberly. Senior Shontrelle Johnson will also join the position group when he is rehabilitated from an ACL tear that he suffered near the end of last season. “James White is James White — runs hard, smart, knows everything about the offense and certainly is tough,” Rhoads said. “Aaron Wimberly, I think you saw enough of him to understand our excitement and certainly why we recruited him. Rob

Standard is not the athlete that the other group is, but he’s productive every time we play.” Now that he has completed his first spring with the Cyclones, Wimberly said he has been able to adapt well to the pistol offense and recognizes how useful it will be with the number and talent level of running backs on the ISU sideline. Wimberly finished with
87 yards on the ground with his longest run on the day being a 13-yard burst. “We’ve got a whole bunch of playmakers,” Wimberly said. “We could spread the field out with just running backs; we’ve got a lot of talented running backs in the group. So, coach tries to use it as much as he can.” Redshirt sophomore quarterback Sam Richardson also took notice to the level

of play of the running back position. “It’s a huge part of our offense, and it’s only going to make our job easier as a quarterback. So, it’s being able to balance and run past or even maybe a little bit more around than past,” Richardson said. “But obviously, the play-action off of that is looking to be a huge part of our offense. So, it’s nice having those guys back there.”

Fun Facts Only two ice hockey goalies (Martin Brodeur and Ron Hextall) have scored a goal in the regular season of play and a goal in the playoffs. Director John Landis includes the phrase “See you next Wednesday” in most of his films. It was the title of a script he wrote as a teen. Fish can taste with their fins and tail as well as their mouth. Something described as “cordiform” is heart-shaped. The first NHL team to use artificial ice wasn’t a warm-weather franchise; it was the Toronto Arenas (now the Maple Leafs) in 1917. While its popularity in America is fairly recent, margarine dates back to 1860s France, when Emperor Louis Napoleon III offered a prize to anyone who could design a cheap butter substitute. The 2 billion-year-old Star of India, which at 563.35 carats is the largest star sapphire in the world, is actually from Sri Lanka. Medieval Japanese samurai burned incense in their helmets so that if they were decapitated in battle, their head would smell sweet. Superman’s alter-ego, Clark Kent, originally worked as a reporter for the Daily Star. The Star changed its name to the more familiar Daily Planet in 1940.
