Steps to starting a relationship “I want to be in a relationship so much, but I never have been. I just don’t know what to do or how anything works, and being shy doesn’t help. What do I do?” - April Showers Dear April Showers, As this is my first response with the Emerald, I thought it would be fitting to start at the beginning: starting a relationship is exciting. It’s completely normal to have not been in a relationship yet. Some people have dated 20 people by college and others won’t date until they’re 30. When you think about talking to that special someone, you feel your heart begin to race and your stomach rolls itself into the shape of a heart, right? Especially if you’re shy, this feeling must frighten the bejeebers out of you and pull you away from your crush at the speed of light. I’m here to say that you should use that nervous energy as fuel. Confidence is suave, but honest, giddy, gooey feelings are flattering, and this sincerity is refreshing to hear. Talking doesn’t take courage; it takes hope, desire and a little push, so maybe tell a friend that you want to talk to a special someone and they can give you a nudge at the right time. Powered by nervous energy, ask this person one of the following: “Wanna get some coffee after class?”; “Are you hungry? Because I’m starving right now”; “Do you want to study later? I feel like this teacher doesn’t explain everything clearly.” Just talking or spending time together is the first step to having a relationship. This will let you know if you want to be in a relationship with this person.
When approaching someone you like, you might get sweaty, so layer up, wear deodorant and try not to think about it too much. You might stumble over your words, so think about what you want to say beforehand and make them easy, casual and sincere. For example, do not say, “Would indulging in a scalding, caffeinated drink be preferable to you?” Try instead: “Hi. Want to get coffee later?” If they say yes, don’t pass out. Say you’re excited and then go do it (not “it,” but go hang out). If they say they can’t right now, but at another time, say you would like to and ask when they are free. This is probably the hardest part, so read closely: ask for their phone number! Ask! Be bold! You can do it, April Showers! I believe in you! Ask for their number so you can plan when you two will meet up. For conversation topics, be curious but not prying, ask questions about them that genuinely interest you; respond honestly when they ask you a question and the rest will be history. As for how everything after that works, all relationships are different and I promise that if you are honest about what you want out of a relationship, they will be too. I wish you the best of luck, April Showers! May your flowers come soon,

Review: The I Don’t Cares’ ‘Wild Stab’ at their best ➥ Craig
The liner notes to The I Don’t Cares debut album Wild Stab include the message, “Recommended: Play at a moderate sensible adult volume.â€? While this is a far cry from the “File Under: Power Trashâ€? note placed on The Replacements’ Sorry Ma, Forgot To Take Out The Trash, the message is clear: Paul Westerberg is still the wisecracking smartass most songwriters wish they could be. Westerberg, the singer, guitarist and songwriter for the legendary Minneapolis punk band The Replacements, has teamed up with Juliana Hatfield (Blake Babies, The Juliana Hatfield Three, Some Girls and Minor Alps) to form The I Don’t Cares. With 16 songs and a 52-minute run time, Wild Stab breezes by with few speed bumps and showcases the occasional diamond-in-the-rough to emerge from Westerberg’s basement. In a recent interview with Peter Wolf for Vanyaland, Westerberg described the combination of his and Hatfield’s vocals as “sandpaper and daffodil.â€? He also explained how the collaboration centered on Hatfield picking her favorite tracks from Westerberg’s basement recording studio. Westerberg used to write a song a day, few of which left the basement and many were discarded or taped over, lost forever. It’s difficult to critique an album by a band called The I Don’t Cares, especially one fronted by one of rock ‘n’ roll’s most notorious underachievers. To best describe the mood of the album, look at â€œÂ˝ 2 Pâ€? (sound it out). It’s partially a love song, partially an indication of an overactive bladder issue. “When you call me baby, I need to find an alley / Your voice always makes me have to pee,â€? Westerberg and Hatfield sing in tight unison

Wright
backed by a bright acoustic and prominent electric guitar. As a duo, Hatfield and Westerberg mesh beautifully. Hatfield understands when to sing backup and when to insert herself into the forefront of the song, and as the album progresses, Hatfield’s role becomes more prominent. The album maintains its light feeling until the final track. Most of the drums are balanced low in the sound mixing, but Wild Stab is all about the vocals, guitar and ensuring these tracks were recorded before they were destroyed. The only song that would be significantly improved by better drum mixing is “Love Out Loud,� which recalls the feel of the Replacements’ “IOU� and is fueled by a similar mannerism. The only uninspired track is “Dance To The Fight.� It carries the heavy-handed rhythmic strumming common through much of Westerberg’s solo work, but the lyrics seem to have been left on a sheet of paper that was destined for destruction. Luckily, it falls to the wayside as it is placed between “Sorry For Tomorrow Night� and “Kissing Break,� the duo’s most tender ballad and best instance of harmonization. While the opener, “Back,� features Westerberg’s most vulnerable sounding vocals, the finale “Hands Together� is a haunting analysis of his current life. It features the densest collection of brilliant Westerbergian one-liners, and is his best song since the release of Pleased To Meet Me (1987). Armed with a 12-string acoustic guitar, light drums and Hatfield’s beautiful backing vocals, Westerberg yet again confirms his reputation as a world-class songwriter. After sharing breakfast with a cigarette that “insisted on rolling on the floor� and dinner with
a cup of coffee that “likes to be called a mug,� he discovers he is “long, tall, dark and handsome, still lonely as shit� by observing his relationship with household items: “The dreams I had before are now too bored to even show up / And the blankets are embarrassed / It’s only me that they cover up.� For once in his career, Westerberg is fully admitting he feels trapped and alone, and it feels like a clear window into his soul. Usually, he disguises his feelings through the veiled perspective of a character, but this is Westerberg narrating from an unfiltered perspective, likely still reeling from his 2014 divorce. The song is an illustration of loneliness and despair, and the results are devastating. The possibility of a new Replacements album almost became a reality during the 2015 “Back By Unpopular Demand� tour, but after a dead-end recording attempt, the current rumor is that the Replacements are finished. If Wild Stab is the type of material The Replacements would have recorded, it’s for the best that they did not record. Performed in a serious context, much of Wild Stab would be mercilessly trashed by critics. In this laid-back context, it’s impossible to deny that it is a fun album and a worthwhile collaboration. Tracks like “Need The Guys� and “Little People� portray the album’s intended unpolished feeling, while “Born For Me� (originally on Suicaine Gratifaction, 1999) and “King Of America� serve as the high production counterparts. While Westerberg wrote the songs, Juliana Hatfield should receive as much credit for selecting the ones worthy of saving from destruction.

ASUO election board to propose earlier and longer election
Make reservations at city2cityshuttle.com or call 541-758-8001
Evergreen
South and North Indian Cuisine ➥t r a n n g u y e n , @ t r a n n g n g n The ASUO election will look a lot different this year. Abraham Youhana comes to the election board chair position with one goal: to expand opportunities for students. Youhana is a sophomore from California double majoring in political science and business administration. With experiences in residence hall government his freshmen year, Youhana said his lack of experience in ASUO is an asset for the election board. “Things can get gridlocked when you have the same people in the system,â€? he said. “It’s definitely detrimental to an extent, not having any previous experience, but I think I could turn that around.â€? As chair, Youhana is responsible for forming a board of, at most, four other members. The board oversees all aspects of the spring student government election. ASUO Senate will confirm the rest of the board before they kick off the election, Youhana said. Youhana’s biggest goal is to expand the election time slots. Last year’s process “seemed to be a glitchâ€? and students didn’t really get the chance to participate, he said. “It’s overall better to make the time gap bigger, so that we can allow more students to participate,â€? Youhana said. “It’ll make campus much more busy ‌ but I know it’ll be better if we have more time.â€? Youhana also proposed to adjust the election date to avoid rushing the process in the first weeks of spring term. The last two ASUO elections were held at the end of March, which is the start of spring term. Although Constitution Court hasn’t approved the timeline, Youhana said the election process could begin as soon as week seven of winter term. This would lengthen the election season to five to seven weeks, he projected.
Senator Abel Cerros, who’s been on ASUO Senate for two years, is concerned that the election will be too far back in winter term. “There’d be spring break in between, and we don’t have control over what people do off campus,� Cerros said. Senator Zach Rentschler is uncertain about the proposal, but welcomes new ideas to better the election. “[The election board] is an independent body, so [it] doesn’t have to do everything the same as previous years,� he said. To better inform students this year, Youhana plans to put out educational pamphlets and hold debate forums where candidates can demonstrate their ideas and proposals to the student body. He said students need to know what the candidate can do to cast the most informative votes. “We want students to have a factual picture of what is going on,� Youhana said. “The last thing we want is for students to be under a different impression and elect someone based on a promise that was made that is not within the Green Tape Notebook [containing bylaws that student government must follow].� The election board will also actively table with campaigns during the general election, Youhana said. He will also hold office hours during election season. The election board will continue to partner with the School of Journalism and Communication to provide the voter guide. “But most of all, I want to make it into a fun process,� Youhana said. “If it’s just chaos and always ridiculous grievances, then people don’t want to participate. We could find ourselves in a couple years with a lack of student participation, and that’s a problem.�

The leaders of each Fraternity and Sorority Life met for a leadership camp to bring communities closer together.
➥ Olivia
Decklar, @ odecklar
Brought to B’nai B’rith Camp in Lincoln City, Oregon, for one weekend, several leaders of the University of Oregon’s Fraternity and Sorority Life built relationships within the community in order to fulfill a common goal: success. The Greek Leadership Academy, an FSL leadership program for boards from chapters, the Panhellenic Council and the Interfraternity Council, met this year on the weekend of Jan. 22 with a total of 48 men and women participating. Each year, the retreat encourages participants to think about their Greek community in a space off-campus. “This is our flagship leadership program for council throughout the year and it keeps evolving as the community evolves,� Justin Shukas, UO director of FSL, said. Shukas said that every year there are small group facilitators who contribute to the retreat. For 2016, the guests were Jaden Brown, performance coach for the International Alpha Tau Omega Headquarters; Cherie Michaud, Greek Alliance Council and PHC advisor for the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and Leslie Schacht Drey, Oregon State University Director of Center of FSL. “One of the biggest takeaways is for the community to get together and figure out how they will utilize each other to move forward in a positive direction,� Shukas said.
Abby Beach, UO Delta Delta Delta president, said it was her first time at the retreat, but she gained a lot of information about leadership to take back to her chapter. “It was one of the best weekends I’ve had,� Beach said. “It was a good weekend to connect with each other and it was a really great opportunity to discuss our ideas and problems to help strengthen the community as a whole.� UO Panhellenic Council President Tori Ganahl said last year’s Greek Leadership Academy weekend was more personalized to each specific person and their leadership style. In each group session at the retreat last year, Ganahl said men and women were grouped so each leadership position was represented in each team. However, Ganahl said this year’s system allowed more time to bond as a group, as each council was a team. “This year was more focused on ‘How can we go back to the Eugene community and share our plans?’ � Ganahl said. “Just as PHC, we gained so much transparency with each other and were so productive in figuring out what ways to grow as a community as a whole rather than individually.� Beach said that what made the retreat fun was spending time with other chapter presidents. “The most influential part was understanding how we’re all agents of change,� Beach said. “We’re the ones in our community that can inspire change and work together.�

he 1993 film Blue depicts director Derek Jarman’s eyesight deteriorating as he undergoes AIDS treatment in a hospital. The movie is a stark shade of blue for 79 minutes with Tilda Swinton narrating. And to Hallie Frost, it’s pure inspiration. “For me it exemplifies the use of film as an expression for the [LGBTQA] community,� said Frost, a University of Oregon cinema studies major and the student-coordinator for this year’s Queer Film Festival, curated by the UO Cultural Forum. She said Blue was the driving force behind organizing the festival’s Friday night film lineup, which revolves around experimental film. This evening, staff at the Wayward Lamb on West Broadway will roll a red carpet down the alley behind their bar, welcoming guests to the festival kickoff. The 24th annual festival starts at 5 p.m. and continues through Sunday. Showings are free and open to all ages; tickets are available for pick up at the UO Ticket Office at McArthur Court. The festival is part of a more comprehensive, yearlong Queer Productions series. The goal is to emulate the same festival experience you might get at Tribeca or Sundance film festivals, said John O’Malley, the Lamb’s event coordinator.

“I have friends in Portland that are jealous that Eugene is getting all this really great content all spring,� he said. The Lamb’s backroom, called The Den, may seem like an atypical venue for a film fest with its bar and dancefloor, but the area can seat 100-plus patrons, said O’Malley. This year’s Queer Film Festival will differ from previous years, said Frost, not only because the venue has changed – it used to take place at the Bijou Metro – but because the festival combines avant-garde films like Blue and the Aussie-drag caper The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert with more mainstream, Oscar-touted features like The Dallas Buyers Club. Short films, international submissions and more mainstream works supplement the festival’s experimental offerings. The festival will feature films from the United States, Italy, Greece and Israel; some will be eight minutes, others two hours. Each night is thematically varied – Thursday night showcases documentaries; Friday is art film night; and Saturday focuses on featurelength movies. Many works screened at the festival are being shown publicly for the first time. It’s easy to see why queer artists would embrace experimental film, Frost said. Like

WEEKEND HIGHLIGHTS Thursday, Feb. 4 ‘Gonna Sip That Sip, Hip That Dip: The Emerging Queer Hip Hop Movement’ (13 minutes) Director: Chasson Gracie (USA) Music documentary The queer hip-hop scene is on the verge of blowing up. Director Chasson Gracie wanted to challenge the assumption that the movement is progressing solely because the U.S. is more open to homosexuality compared to a decade ago. This documentary uncovers other variables that can be attributed to the increased success of gay hip-hop artists and the broader movement as a whole. ‘The Owls’ (11 mins) Director: Natalia Bougadellis (Greece) Drama During the financial crisis in Greece, the oldest son of a lowincome family is now responsible for bringing food to the table and assisting his two unemployed parents.
ULTURAL AND CINEMATIC so much about queer culture, films like Blue are exercises in disrupting and questioning conventions in a culture dominated by norms. Richard Herskowitz, a media curator at Jordan Schnitzer Museum of Art, said these movies deliberately distort cinematic standards, like continuity editing or a three-act structure, and establish new ones. An experimental film’s non-linear or even non-narrative style can be an alienating experience, he said. “But when you open yourself up to it,” Herskowitz said, “they’re more respectful of your ability to collaborate in making meaning, instead of imposing a meaning on the viewer.” One of his favorites is Carolee Schneemann’s Fuses (1967). In the film, Schneemann depicts herself having sex with her boyfriend from their cat’s perspective. She physically distorted the footage by staining, burning and painting on the film itself to evoke the sensual experience of lovemaking. Herskowitz had been used to watching narrative films; Fuses shocked him, but he fell in love. “It was absolute horror, and gradually, I became an addict,” he said. Herskowitz hopes to get other people addicted to experimental queer cinema with the Queer Productions series. The Queer Productions series culminates in April with the opening
of a new Jordan Schnitzer exhibition curated by Zackary Drucker and Rhys Ernst, two famous L.A.-based transgender filmmakers. The pair, both co-producers on Amazon’s TV program Transparent, documented their relationship during their respective gender transitions from 2008 to 2013, when Ernst transitioned from female to male, and Drucker transitioned from male to female. The exhibition depicts everyday moments from Ernst’s and Drucker’s lives through a series of photographs, plus a video titled “She Gone Rogue.” The exhibition’s focus on the gender-queer world is significant as it evaluates the distinction between their public status as artistic icons and their private lives. “Drucker’s visit and her works with Ernst cap off events to help us celebrate queer memory and assess the status quo around trans culture on campus,” said Miller. The vast array of LGBTQA artistic expression being showcased throughout Eugene is part of the blossoming queer scene that these cinephiles hope to celebrate. “Queer is not just the requirement for content; it’s also an aesthetic. The queer community has an intense relationship with expressing their culture and narrative through film,” Frost said. More information and the full schedule for the Queer Film Festival can be found at www.qff.uoregon.edu.
‘The Gospel According to Charlie’ (57 minutes) Director: David Bussan (USA) Documentary Gay outsider artist Charlie Van Ness is prone to carving mythical stories into stone tablets and making penis-shaped sculptures with fiberglass and resin. This documentary is a look into Van Ness’s evolution as an artist, and the demons that drive him to destroy decades’ worth of his works. ‘Wedlocked’ (11 minutes) Animation/Comedy/Drama/Romance Sydney and Cameron are a happily engaged couple looking forward to their wedding day, but there’s one problem: Sydney is still married to Lisa; their home state won’t recognize their wedding, so a divorce is impossible. Set before the Supreme Court ruling in June 2015, this farce takes on the ridiculous laws that govern gay divorce.
Friday, Feb. 5 ‘Blue’ (1993) (79 minutes) Director: Derek Jarman (USA) Biography/Drama As his eyesight slowly depreciates from AIDS treatment, Jarman paints a complex allegory of his condition during his time in the hospital. Tilda Swinton helps narrate, and composer Brian Eno scores Jarman’s introspective, avantgarde work.
Saturday, Feb. 6 ‘The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert’ (1994) (104 minutes) Director: Stephan Elliot (Australia) Drama/Comedy Two drag queens and a transgender woman (played by Hugo Weaving, Guy Pearce and Terence Stamp) drive across Australia in a tour bus named “Priscilla.” The trio encounters various groups and eccentric people along the way. ‘The Dallas Buyer’s Club’ (2013) (117 minutes) Director: Jean-Marc Vallée (USA) Biography/Drama Rodeo bull-rider and hustler Ron Woodruff (played by Matthew McConaughey) discovers that he’s HIV-positive; furious that he can’t afford AZT, the drug commonly used as AIDS medication, he begins a complex scheme to smuggle drugs across the Mexican border to Texas to help other patients. ‘Tangerine’ (2015) (88 minutes) Director: Sean Baker (USA) Drama/Comedy After a transgender sex worker is released from a prison sentence and discovers her boyfriend/pimp has been cheating on her, she sets out to find him and his new lover.

Q&A
⚡ SPORTS Teddy Oitzman & Roberto Lebrija
heading to oregon golf When Teddy Oitzman verbally committed in January 2015 to play golf for Oregon, his work wasn’t done. Oitzman was still trying to convince his friend, Roberto Lebrija, to join him. The two became friends when Lebrija moved from Mexico City to Oitzman’s hometown of Rancho Santa Fe, California. They began playing together at their home course, The Bridges. Lebrija visited and gave his verbal commitment to Oregon six months after Oitzman. Oitzman and Lebrija made their commitments official when Oregon head coach Casey Martin signed the two, as well as Kevin Geniza, to National Letters of Intent last November. The Emerald spoke to Oitzman in a phone interview about his goals for freshman year and his relationship with Lebrija. Emerald: What factored into your decision of coming to Oregon? Teddy Oitzman: It was basically, ‘Am I going to choose Pac-12 or Ivy League golf?’ At Columbia, I got a good vibe there, but it was essentially, ‘Do I want to give playing on the (PGA) Tour a good chance? If I do, go play at a Oregon ...’ That was ultimately my decision. I said to myself, ‘Do I want to be 22 or 23 years old and didn’t get that much better in college? Or go play at Oregon and have a really good chance of playing on tour.’ My goal is to play on tour, and going to Oregon gives me the best chance of doing that. E: Since you’re from Southern California, playing in great conditions year round, was it difficult to commit to a place like Oregon that has bad weather for several months of the year? TO: It kind of sucks playing in rain, but then again I need to get better playing in it. In the PGA Tour, they play in pretty good weather all year. But obviously there’s places, in Europe or wherever, you’re going to play in rain.
If you can break par in Eugene when it’s rainy and windy … I think it will help me a lot. E: How did you and Roberto come to know each other? TO: He moved here [Rancho Santa Fe] the summer going into our sophomore year from Mexico City. We play a course called The Bridges in Rancho Santa Fe. It’s a [small] community. He moved in a pitching-wedge distance away from my house. I started seeing him play at the club when he moved here. We had known each other from national team events, but became really good friends playing golf here every single day. E: Casey Martin mentioned that you and Roberto are buddies and chose to come to Oregon together. How did that happen? TO: Yeah, our sophomore year, Roberto and I told each other we were going to play golf at Stanford together. But neither of us really meshed with [Stanford men’s golf head coach] Conrad Ray. It wasn’t for us ultimately, but we still wanted to go to school together. I committed to Oregon six months before Roberto and I said, ‘Dude, you have to come look at this place … The facilities are great, the home course (Eugene Country Club) is awesome ... Casey’s really good, Van’s really good.’ So he went up to Oregon, visited and decided he was going to go there. E: When you get to U of O, do you have any other short or long-term goals? TO: Yeah, definitely. When I committed, I didn’t think I was going to start my freshman year. I started working with a new swing coach and new chipping coach in the last six months and my game has improved a lot … It’s helped me gain some confidence. So a goal of mine is to start at least a few events in the fall of my freshman year.

Chris Boucher changing the game
Chris Boucher has become a gamechanging post player for the Ducks. (Adam Eberhardt)
and better than his frame
Sunday night, reigning national junior college player of the year Chris Boucher scored a career-high 26 points to go along with 10 rebounds and seven blocks, as then-ranked No. 23 Oregon knocked off Arizona State 91-74 on the road. Not only did Boucher help lead the Ducks to their third sweep of the Arizona schools in program history, he also weaved together his best game at the Division I level with his sixth double-double of the season. Much of that can be attributed to his understanding of the game. Even before conference play started, Boucher knew what his role on this team was going to be and he’s stuck to it ever since. “Rebounding, I knew that I could do a lot of work in there,” Boucher said after the Ducks’ win over Long Beach State. “Scoring is just secondary. My primary role is to take down rebounds and block shots.” Boucher, a junior college transfer who currently ranks in the top three for blocks in the country, is, without a doubt, Oregon’s most valuable new addition. He’s currently on pace to not only break Jordan Bell’s single-season record of 94 blocks set last year, but also Oregon’s program-best 116, set by Blair Rasmussen. On the season, Boucher is averaging 12.2 points, 7.7 rebounds and 3.1 blocks. “Chris is continuing to get better,” Oregon head coach Dana Altman said. “He’s just a unique player. His feet and his balance are really good. He doesn’t get knocked off easy and he’s wiry strong.” The first impressions are consistent with Boucher (6-foot-10, 190 pounds): he’s lanky, skinny, deceivingly skilled and athletic. Like Yahoo! Sports’ Jeff Eisenberg put it in a December article: “Boucher was thin as a sapling, all slender arms and spindly legs,” with a narrow frame that “suggested he might not ever grow big and strong enough to avoid being pushed around near the basket.” But, more like bamboo than a sapling, Boucher is strong, and most importantly, flexible. For a player who grew up playing
soccer and hockey, it’s nothing short of surprising to see him consistently influence the game at a high level, handling much heavier, NBA-bound big men with ease. “Chris is a different animal,” Bell said. “He gets shots I don’t think I could even get.” Already, Boucher has more than held his own against Baylor’s Rico Gathers (6-foot-8, 275 pounds), California’s Ivan Rabb (6-foot-10, 220 pounds), Utah’s Jakob Poeltl (7foot, 248 pounds) and most recently, Arizona’s Kaleb Tarczewski (7-foot, 256 pounds). All are much bigger, physical post players. But Boucher uses his athleticism to his advantage. In those matchups alone, he had 12 combined blocks. “It’s just my mindset of not giving up,” Boucher said. “I know they’re bigger than me and I can’t really do anything about it, so the best thing I can do is just work hard and run the floor: stuff that they can’t do, that I can do.” Few times has this program been fortunate enough to feature a gamechanging post player. And with Boucher, things really are different. “His frame scared me when I saw him a year ago in the summer,” Altman said. “I was excited about how he ran and everything, but in my mind, I’m like ‘too thin.’ But he’s fearless and he’s been a lot of fun to work with. I just hope he can continue to do what he’s been doing because he’s a game changer.” In a few months – Oregon will presumably be NCAA tournament bound – ESPN’s Joe Lunardi recently projected the Ducks as high as a No. 4 seed and picked them to win the Pac12. If this team, which ranks No. 3 in the ESPN’s RPI standings, wants to make a deep run in March, Boucher will have to continue his dominant play. Because when he’s on, this team is at its best. It’s new, coming from junior college,” Boucher said. “I know that I’m at a bigger level now, so everything counts.

National Signing Day: Oregon signs 19 players, Malepeai flips to USC ➡ Justin National Signing Day began as it always does for Oregon. Before 9 a.m. the Ducks had officially signed eight prospects, including versatile four-star athlete Tristen Wallace and three-star linebacker Keith Simms. The Ducks even gained a late commitment from three-star defensive tackle Wayne Kirby. Kirby signed his letter of intent shortly thereafter, according to the Oregon Gridiron Twitter account. In total, Oregon signed 19 players to its 2016 recruiting class and satisfied its most apparent needs, according to head coach Mark Helfrich, which were linebacker and quarterback. The Ducks have signed three quarterbacks since December and will have seven new linebackers on its roster come fall. Helfrich and his staff did receive a surprise early Wednesday morning as well. Vavae Malepeai, a four-star running back who committed last June, flipped his commitment to USC after taking a visit to Los Angeles last weekend. He was the only running back Mark Helfrich and his staff expected to sign. “That’s life in the big city,” Helfrich said. “There’s guys that de-committed and went somewhere else and there’s guys that decommitted and came to us. That happens.” Oregon’s class ranks No. 24 in the nation, according to Scout, No. 28, according to Rivals and No. 27, according to 247 Sports. Keep up with our live coverage from National Signing Day here. Here’s a look at some of Oregon’s latest signings: Keith Simms (OLB) • 6-foot-3, 220 pounds • Three-star recruit from Landon School in Bethesda, Maryland Simms is ranked as the 20th best outside linebacker in the 2016 class, according to Rivals. He ultimately decided on Oregon after hosting Helfrich and defensive coordinator Brady Hoke. Tristen Wallace (ATH) • 6-foot-3, 228 pounds • Four-star recruit from Desoto High School in Desoto, Texas • Wallace flipped his commitment from

Wayne Kirby (DT) • 6-foot-3, 290 pounds • Three-star recruit from Highland High School in Pocatello, Idaho • Kirby picked Oregon over fellow Pac12 finalists Washington State and Utah. He is the only defensive tackle signing for Oregon in 2016. Bryson Young (DE) • 6-foot-4, 220 pounds • Four-star recruit from Buchanan High School in Clovis, California • Despite visiting Oregon on the weekend of its 62-20 loss to Utah, and watching the Ducks fall to Washington State two weeks later, Young committed to Oregon in early October, citing excitement to help improve the unit as a reason why. Samuelu Poutasi (OG) • 6-foot-4, 310 pounds • Three-star recruit from Desert Pines High School in Las Vegas, Nevada • Poutasi’s brother is Tennessee Titans offensive lineman Jeremiah Poutasi. Logan Bathke (OT) • 6-foot-5, 255 pounds • Three-star recruit from Orange Lutheran High School in Orange, California • Chose Oregon last June over Arizona, Arizona State and UCLA, among others. LaMar Winston, Jr. (OLB) • 6-foot-2, 211 pounds • Three-star recruit from Central Catholic High School in Portland, Oregon • The top recruit from the state of Oregon and is the No. 258 recruit nationally, according to 247Sports.

‘Grease: Live!’, #SAGsSoDiverse, OSU bones, Peyton Manning, Iowa caucuses
(Mary Vertulfo)
Raise your hand if you’ve ever been personally victimized by Betty Rizzo. *Raises hand and says,* “And I’m not even mad.â€? First things first, let’s have a moment of silence for two reasons: for Greg Hudgens, who died from cancer moments before Grease: Live! took place on Jan. 31, and for Vanessa Hudgens, who gave the best Betty Rizzo performance I have ever seen, whilst having a heavy heart from her father’s passing. She conveyed all the sass of the OG 1978 Betty and outdid her own High School Musical vocals X 1000. Other classic Disney stars who killed it included Keke Palmer, with her performance of “Freddy My Love,â€? and Joe Jonas and his band the DNCE in the place of Johnny Casino and the Gamblers. FX star Kether Donohue was an incredibly pleasant surprise to see as she played Jan. After I took my cat-lens glasses off and made sure it was her, I remembered why she’s the best part of the show You’re the Worst. Boyz II Men were another unexpected cameo that I was very happy about. Dancing with the Stars sweetheart Julianne Hough played a very safe Sandy, the female-lead, as did Aaron Tveit in his role as Danny Zuko, the ultimate greaser. The singing and dancing were all there, but not much passion or rebellion was conveyed, Ă mon avis. The rest of Hollywood got together on Jan. 30 to judge each other’s latest work in the 22nd Screen Actors Guild Awards. The SAG Awards are unique from other TV and film award shows in that the actors who are a part of the Guild are the ones who decide which of their peers get the awkwardly exposed trophies. In contrast to what has been circulating
about the upcoming Academy Awards, the SAGs were #SoDiverse. Idris Elba even mentioned how diverse the night was after he took home two awards, in addition to other actors of color who won such as Viola Davis, Queen Latifah and the cast of “Orange is the New Black.â€? Also, as mentioned a few weeks back, my predictions are slowly becoming reality as Leonardo DiCaprio is finally being recognized for his strong, mature, substantial‌ acting skills. Speaking of strong, mature and substantial, on Jan. 25, the construction crew that is working on Oregon State University’s football stadium renovation project came across a femur bone, likely from a mammoth. Breaking news: There’s finally been a real victory at OSU’s Reser Stadium! More touchdowns were made when the department of anthropology at the university reported that there are dozens of bones and bone fragments in the relative area. They’re going to keep on keeping on with the digging and excavating in hopes of uncovering more ancient animal remains. This sounds like a big project; I suggest they work into the fall if needed. I mean, it wouldn’t make that much of a difference football-wise. Something that would put a dent in the football world is the potential retirement of Sir Peyton Manning. The Denver Broncos quarterback spent his week fighting allegations made by Al Jazeera back in December about him taking Human Growth Hormone. The
almost-40-year-old, which is 173 in football years, will be playing in Super Bowl 50, but who knows what’s to come after that. Manning has been hinting at a possible end to his legendary NFL career since the HGH claims, and I say go for it. Let’s give some newbies a chance to throw the pigskin around since I’m sure Papa John’s and NationWide will stay on his side. Let’s let the rookies do the football and the veterans do the politics. The incredibly wellequipped, experienced, très ĂŠlĂŠgante and New York Times-endorsed Democratic goddess, Hillary Clinton, won the ever-important Iowa caucuses on Feb. 1 in a battle against Sen. Bernie Sanders. She slid her way onto home base without a grass stain in sight. There has been talk about a coin toss deciding her win, since she did pull in at only 0.3 percent over the Bern-meister, but I believe in fate, and fate was in Hill’s satin-soft hands Sunday night. As for the GOP, Sen. Ted Cruz trumped Trump, while Sen. Marco Rubio is petting his kitty at home and holding his pinky to the corner of his mouth because of how well he did. Rubio’s camp is probably stoked about how popular he was, as bad girl Rihanna would say, “in a hopeless place.â€? Hillz and Rubes in the end - I’m calling it now. b y N e g i n a P i r z a d, @ n e g i n a p e p i n a

jordan schnitzer Opens New Exhibit on photographer
O
n Jan. 23, the Jordan Schnitzer Museum of Art opened a new exhibit, From the Heart: The Photographs of Brian Lanker. It is a look back, almost five years after Lanker’s death, on the stories he told as a photojournalist for publications like Life and Sports Illustrated. “Brian was such a creative storyteller,� said Jordan Schnitzer Communications Director Debbie WilliamsonSmith. “He worked closely with his subjects to produce very personal pieces.� A longtime Eugene resident and former employee of The Register-Guard, Lanker got his start at the Topeka Capital Journal under the tutelage of renowned photographer Rich Clarkson. Lanker won a Pulitzer Prize for feature photography in 1973 for his photo essay on childbirth. His prize-winning photo, “Moment of Life,� is on display at the new exhibit. On display are many of Lanker’s most iconic images. Including photos from the very first Olympic Track & Field Trials Eugene hosted at Hayward Field in 1972 and ’75, connecting then to now as Eugene is set to host the 2016 trials this summer. Attendees may also recognize some of Lanker’s portraits of artists like Willie Nelson and David Bowie.
The exhibit comes in coordination with Black History Month and has photos from Lanker’s book, I Dream a World: Portraits of Black Women Who Changed America, which he coauthored with writer and civil rights activist Maya Angelou The university received the collection as a gift from Lanker’s wife in time to announce the exhibit during the Martin Luther King Jr. Day celebration at the Shedd Institute on Jan. 18. “[The exhibit] is great work showing the powerful black women who shaped civil rights in this country,� said Eric Richardson, president of the Eugene-Springfield Chapter of the NAACP. Like previous exhibits at the Jordan Schnitzer, attendees can use their cell phones to access information about the works, providing an audio tour of the exhibit. There will also be screenings of Lanker’s 1998 documentary They Drew Fire: Combat Artists of WWII accompanying his photography. Admittance to the museum is free for University of Oregon students and children under 12, $5 for adults and $3 for seniors. There is also free general admission on the first Friday of each month. The exhibit runs through April 24.
