'My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2'

is unoriginal, but funny My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2 starts as the type of movie you don’t want to sit through. You stay because you paid for your tickets, and then it all ends up being worth it. The chemistry gets better, the jokes get funnier and the dialogue becomes realistic and relatable.

The film features the same characters as the original: Toula Portokalos, her now-husband Ian, her parents Gus and Maria, her aunt Voula and the rest of Toula’s big, Greek family. Like the first movie, half the charm of the film is the giant Portokalos family. They’re overbearing in the most loving and hilarious way, and their interactions between each other and the non-Greek world are filled with humor.

The first 20 minutes or so of My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2 are cute, but some of the chemistry between actors is so uncomfortable that it’s hard to watch. Several of the jokes are perfect until someone adds a line that ruins them. The daughter of main characters Ian and Toula, Paris, also seems unrealistic and unlikable.

Gus Portokalos (Michael Constantine) and Aunt Voula (Andrea Martin) make the film comedic, especially for viewers who may see some of their own

family in the characters. Gus is the older dad who’s trying to keep up with 21st-century technology while informing everyone about the importance of his heritage. Aunt Voula is the relative who tells people more information than they want to hear and always has an opinion about everything. Still, these characters are caring, genuine and hilarious.

This is nothing new, though. If you watched the first film, you already know these characters are funny and you already know the overwhelming dynamic of the Portokalos family. My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2 isn’t anything surprising. It’s the first film all over again, perhaps with a bit more cheesy material and less originality.It’s the perfect movie for when you don’t want to think too much and just want to watch something that will put you in a good mood.

If you’ve seen My Big Fat Greek Wedding and it made you laugh, then the sequel is a must see.

The plot of the first film was sweet, but its real success was from how funny it was. The plot of the sequel isn’t that strong or creative. However, the humor is still there. by anna lieberman, @annalieberman

hile some students may have elected to spend spring break sipping Mai Tais by a swimming pool, 10 adventurous University of Oregon students took 10 days off to travel down one of the most popular bike touring routes on the west coast – the Oregon Coast scenic bike route.

The cyclists loaded their bikes with camping gear and supplies before heading off during finals week on Wednesday, March 16.

They returned a half later on Sunday, March 27, just in time to start spring term.

The trip began from the UO Outdoor Program’s bike barn (at East 18th Avenue and University Street) and then ran down the scenic Smith River Road to Coos Bay, Oregon. From there, the group made its way down the coastline to San Francisco, where they crossed The Emerald is published by Emerald Media Group, Inc., the independent nonprofit media company at the University of Oregon.

During the tour, cyclists were treated to many stunning sights, from the towering trees of the Redwood forests to the expansive Pacific Ocean at the California coastline. A great sense of accomplishment washed over the entire group as they reached the end of the Golden Gate Bridge and concluded their 700 mile adventure. “The highlight of the trip for me was biking through the Redwoods,� said UO student Katie Nock. “True bliss is riding down the hills through Redwood National Park and then stopping to eat a chocolate chip cookie at the bottom.�

The cyclists also met their fair share of challenges along the way, as they had to contend with numerous flat tires, unpredictable

One clever solution involved several cyclists slipping their socked feet into plastic bags to stay a little dryer on days when the rain refused to let up.

Thanks to Warmshowers.org, a website devoted to helping wayfaring cyclists, the UO group was also able to get in contact with several gracious hosts who provided places to shower, wash clothes and rest after a long day on the road. “The worst and best days of my life both happened on this ten-day journey,� said UO student Megan Brehm. “Coming out of it I feel crazy for making the decision to go on this trip, but I’m satisfied for having done it.�

Student and UO Bike Program employee Halley Anderson organized the trip to share her love of bike touring with others. She used the program’s resources to start networking and found several interested cyclists. Once she had a cohort assembled, they began to train for the trip by spending their weekends biking around Eugene and the surrounding area.

Each participant either rented a bike from the UO Outdoor Program or had their own bike inspected by one of the program’s mechanics to make sure it would be in acceptable condition for the trip.

Anderson was pleased with how the trip went and hopes that this will be the first of many tours she will initiate during her time as a student at UO. “I’d say it was a raging success,� said Anderson. “Everyone fell in love with living on their bikes.�

WOW Hall offers volunteer opportunities in exchange for tickets ➥ meerah

powell, @meerah powell

As a college student, checking out your town’s music scene is a necessity, but regularly shelling out the cash for concert tickets to see your favorite bands can be near impossible. Luckily, WOW Hall, a music venue on 8th Avenue and Lincoln Street, offers an alternative option — volunteering in order to get free entry to shows. Along with seeing free music, WOW Hall also offers the opportunity to get more involved in the Eugene community.

Initially a building for the Woodmen of the World fraternal organization in the late 1800s, the iconic white cement structure has been a part of Eugene’s history for a long time. As a music venue, WOW Hall is going into its 41st year of existence and has had a large impact on Eugene’s music scene over the decades.

The venue has been host to a variety of acts, from bands like Dinosaur Jr. and Yo La Tengo to artists like Macklemore and Tyler the Creator. Along with providing a space for bands large and small to perform, WOW Hall also pushes for Eugene residents to get more

involved in the active arts and culture scene.

According to volunteer coordinator Laura Farrelly, WOW Hall has over a few hundred active volunteers, but is always looking for more. “We couldn’t survive without volunteers, I mean, we just couldn’t,� said Farrelly of the non-profit venue. Unlike other venues in town who have paid security and staff, WOW Hall relies entirely on its volunteers to take tickets, check IDs and act as security for the venue.

Volunteers also have the option to train in controlling the lights, monitors and sound for shows.

WOW Hall offers volunteer opportunities outside of working at concerts, such as helping with spring cleaning and landscaping or even writing for WOW Hall Notes, the venue’s monthly newsletter.

Along with being a resume builder or a requirement for a class project, which Farrelly says brings a lot of college-aged volunteers to the venue, WOW Hall’s volunteer program

has more long-lasting effects on both a personal and communal level. “There’s so many skills that college students can pick up, especially if they’re new to town,� said Farrelly. “I know for a fact that it has helped volunteers who might be a little shy to come into their own and meet like-minded folks who are into the same kind of music and art they are. “Another perk is just getting access to all this amazing, diverse art,� said Farrelly, “I think that’s pretty essential and important.�

For Farrelly, WOW Hall stresses the necessity of community as well as being a safe space for everyone to enjoy live music. “It’s an all-ages venue, so we have families volunteering sometimes, so it’s sort of like a family affair in that sense,� said Farrelly.

WOW Hall’s next volunteer orientation is on Tuesday, March 29 at 7 p.m. at 291 W. 8th Ave. The orientation takes about one hour and trainings occur monthly. Information about volunteer opportunities is available on the WOW Hall’s website.

Historic

federal climate case

kicks off in

Eugene ➥ troy

shinn, @troyshinn

Climate activists gathered in front of the Federal District Courthouse in Eugene on March 9 to attend and support the hearing of a landmark environmental law suit. Twenty one young plaintiffs are suing the United States government and the Obama Administration for not fully acting to stop pollution from carbon emissions.

The case, Juliana et al v. United States, is being called the first of its kind. The plaintiffs are all under the age of 21, and some are even as young as elementary school age. They allege that the U.S. government, knowing for decades about adverse effects of fossil fuels on the planet’s climate, did not do enough to protect future generations’ right to a clean and sustainable environment.

This is the first case in history to bring a constitutional argument into environmental law claims.

Big oil and manufacturing companies have joined in on this case as intervening defendants under newly-formed trade associations, arguing with the government against the plaintiffs’ case.

Environmental scientists from all over are voicing their opinions, including University of Oregon professor of environmental science Ronald Mitchell. “The lawsuit makes a compelling legal case for why we should protect the climate,� said Mitchell. “It’s shifting from a, ‘What’s in my best interest?’ perspective to a, ‘What’s the right thing to do for future generations?’ perspective.�

The plaintiffs say that burning carbon fuels violates the Public Trust Doctrine, a law which states that natural resources must be used in the public’s best interest. In Oregon and other states, this is the same kind of law that puts environmental regulations on businesses in order to prevent things like drought and deforestation.

Professor Mary Wood, who teaches environmental law at UO did a lot of her early work with public trust arguments like these.

Wood says that the constitutional claims are unique to this case, but a case a few years ago made similar public trust arguments. That case was brought before the district court in Washington D.C. and was dismissed before going to trial.

The defendants want this case dismissed as well, citing a Supreme Court decision that says that the public trust is a state issue and not up to federal courts. This is the same arguments that got the case in D.C. dismissed back in 2012.

Supporters of the lawsuit say this is an incorrect reading of the Supreme Court decision, and that the judiciary should set a new precedent for how climate issues are handled. “The defendants’ motion is saying that it isn’t the courts’ job to intervene in this kind of policy,� Wood said, “and this is exactly the point here. The plaintiffs are saying that the other branches of government should have done something a long time ago, now it’s up to the courts to force them to take action.�

If the case is dismissed, the plaintiffs can move into an appeals process to try and get the case reviewed at another level. If it goes to trial, it would be the first case of its kind to do so. Even if the Oregon case is thrown out, the plaintiffs have filed similar suits in all 50 states, so this legal argument will not be going away any time soon.

According to Wood, these claims are only gaining momentum. “When you look at the stakes involved, there is no bigger case in the world,� Wood said. “This case affects everybody.�

Divest UO continues fight for divestment and freedom of speech The group is organizing a press conference on March 30 to announce its 9-to-5 sit-in protest and present its argument to keep its big red “Off Fossil Fuels� banner in front of Johnson Hall. “We are not backing down!� the group’s Facebook reads.

Administration banned the group from having its banner leaning against a bush in front of the building. The administration justified its decision with “no signs are permitted on windows, walls, doors, pillars or other structural elements of the EMU� and all other buildings on campus, according to members of Divest UO and its Facebook page.

UO student Annie Lalita, who will be attending the press conference, said the university is violating students’ First Amendment rights. “It is ridiculous because this is an indirect means of taking away free speech and public opinion,� she said. “Students should fight for it because those signs didn’t do anyone any harm.�

Divest UO has fought for divestment for years. Last year alone, the group passed an ASUO ballot with 73 percent of students voting for divestment and got University Senate to pass a divest resolution. It also led two rallies on Global Divestment Day and Earth Week. This year, the group has led one rally in February following a four-week sit-in protest.

However, both the UO Foundation and UO President Michael Schill continued to refuse to divest, the RegisterGuard reported.

Senate to vote on new senate president as Kevin Dobyns graduates Senate President, Safe Ride director of finance and Program Finance Committee member Kevin Dobyns has finished his bachelor’s degree in business administration at the University of Oregon. Upon his graduation, Dobyns, who has the held senate president seat since summer 2015, leaves the senate president seat open.

Current senators can self-nominate themselves as the new senate president, who will hold office until May 25.

The senate body will vote on the new senate president within the first two weeks of spring term, senator Andrew Dunn said.

ASUO collaborates with UO Cultural Forum to extend Spring Street Faire through Saturday The biannual faire, which is the ASUO’s biggest fundraiser, will last four days this spring, ASUO Events Coordinator Katty Kaunang said. Starting May 4, students can stroll through more than 50 vendors of local food, arts and crafts and non profit programs on East 13th Street.

During the fall 2015 street faire, the ASUO collaborated with Falling Sky Brewery to bring a beer garden to the EMU Amphitheater the last day of the faire.

This Spring, Kaunang said the ASUO has teamed up with UO Cultural Forum to bring the Willamette Valley Music Festival, featuring local bands and performers on Saturday, May 7.

The show will start at 1 p.m. and last until midnight. by tran nguyen, @tranngngn

Hacked printers

produce anti-Semitic flyers on campus

The University of Oregon is investigating a hacking after it was part of a national incident that printed out anti-Semitic flyers to different universities, including Oregon State University, on March 25.

Five total printouts were reported, UO spokesman Tobin Klinger said. Klinger said the information security departments have worked with affected printers to block those unauthorized print jobs since then.

UO Chief Information Security Officer Will Laney said the notifications about the incident started to pour in Thursday, March 24 at noon from the College of Arts and Sciences, and then from athletics departments.

By March 28, Laney said his department received 22 notifications on the incident. “Racist printouts in printers,� one of the messages from an affected department read.

The flyers were received through network printer ports that were open to the Internet.

It is reported that the same IP address has sent the racist fliers across the nation, Laney said.

There are several solutions to prevent the hack, Laney said.

One is to block the IP address that is responsible for the hack.

Another is to change the default passwords in the printers.

The message on these flyers was addressed to “white men� with a link to a neo-Nazi website.

A pair of swastikas were also displayed on the page.

UOPD was notified to open an investigation to see if any university-affiliated individuals were being targeted.

A 30-year-old hacker, Andrew Auern­heimer (also known as

Weev), claimed credit for the national hack the same day, the Washington Times reported.

Auernheimer, who has been vocal about his racist beliefs on the Internet, was report­edly charged with fed­eral crimes for obtain­ing the per­sonal data of more than 100,000 iPad own­ers from AT&T’s pub­licly acces­si­ble web­site in 2014, according to the Ars Technica.

Back in July, UO was victimized with another printing hack by a hacker called “Le Pink.�

The hacker put the targeted printers out of commission and wasted some paper and toner by printing ink-heavy images featuring the Muslim declaration of faith, the Shahada. Those printers were fixed quickly, and given “new, secure passwords.�

Laney said the university is looking into changes with the way printers operate. A project is underway to install multifunction devices for printers, scanners and copiers to increase security. “While we are relieved that the flier does not appear to have been generated inside the university, it is an important reminder that we can not and will not tolerate an act designed to make any member of our campus community feel unwelcome or threatened,� Klinger said in a statement.

The anti-Semitic fliers also appeared at a number of institutions including Princeton, Brown, University of Southern California and University of Rhode Island as they prepared for Holocaust Remembrance Week. by jennifer fleck, @jenniferfleck &tran nguyen, @tranngngn

Spring Appetizer Salad (1 serving) This light appetizer is a satisfying introduction to any meal. It’s simple to make, but the cooked artichoke hearts add a little special flavor to it. Some ingredients can get expensive, so it can be served as a light meal by itself.

Ingredients: 1 artichoke A large handful of spinach 1 ½ tbsp. of pine nuts 2 tbsp. of olive oil 1 tbsp. of parmesan cheese

Directions: 1. Boil water in a large pot, then cook artichoke for about 40 minutes, turning halfway through.

2. Drain water and refrigerate until cool.

3. Slice the heart of the artichoke into small cubes.

4. Pour spinach, pine nuts and Âź cup of artichoke hearts into a bowl, then toss.

5. Drizzle olive oil over, then toss again.

Sprinkle parmesan cheese, then toss again.

With the Lane County Farmers’ Market only a few EmX bus stops away from campus, fresh and local foods aren’t far from students. Some of the freshest produce to look for at markets and stores this spring are asparagus, peas, artichoke, spinach, rhubarb and strawberries.

Besides the farmers’ market, there are other food vendors that specialize in fresh, organic ingredients. The Kiva Grocery Store, located on W. 11th Avenue, is a locally owned grocery store that sells products from over 250 food suppliers in the eugene area. Sundance Natural Foods on E. 24th Avenue is also unique to Eugene, and receives lots of its produce from local farmers.

The following recipes use the fruits and vegetables mentioned above to bring the freshest meals to the table. Some also feature wine and beer ingredients that are best cooked in the spring months and also compliment each dish.

These recipes can be served as a full meal if desired: an appetizer, a rich or light entrĂŠe option and a dessert.

Rich Cream Gnocchi (3-4 servings) This gnocchi plate is heavy and filling and best served in small quantities with other dishes. Although most beers can be used in this dish, Eugene’s Ninkasi Brewing Company produces a Believer Double Red Ale that would work well with this dish. Red ale is considered in season during spring, and the company’s website mentions that this beer goes well with cheeses.

Ingredients: 3 oz. of cream cheese 1/3 cup red ale 3 tbsp. butter Âź cup of parmesan cheese 1 cup of shredded mild cheddar cheese 1 tbsp. of bread crumbs (plus more for garnish) 3 cups of gnocchi a pinch of salt a generous sprinkle of sugar

Directions: 1. Place a small pot of water on medium heat. Complete steps 2-5 while it boils.

2. Pour red ale into a pot and bring to a boil.

3. Add cream cheese, butter, parmesan cheese, cheddar cheese, salt and sugar.

4. Stir until melted.

5. Stir in breadcrumbs, then let simmer on low heat, stirring occasionally while gnocchi cook.

6. When the first pot boils, add gnocchi. Drain when they rise to the top of the pot (about 3 minutes).

7. Pour gnocchi into cheese mixture and stir everything together, then garnish with bread crumbs. pa g e 8

Light Pea and Asparagus Risotto (about 2 servings) If you’re looking for something a bit lighter that’s also healthy, this risotto made from cauliflower rice is a flavorful option. It’s common to cook with dry wines, so a pinot grigio is a good option.

Ingredients: 24 oz. of cauliflower ~25 asparagus 1 cup of peas ¼ cup of pinot grigio 2 tbsp. butter ½ tsp. onion powder a generous sprinkle of salt 2 tbsp. of olive oil 2 tbsp. of parmesan cheese

Directions: 1. Grate the flower parts of the cauliflower. They should roughly resemble white rice when finished. Set aside.

2. Cut the tips of the asparagus, then steam them using a steamer over a pot of boiling water, covered, for about 5 minutes.

Boil another pot of water, and cook peas in it for about 5 minutes while asparagus is cooking.

3. Drain peas and remove asparagus from heat. Set aside.

4. Pour butter, olive oil, salt and onion powder on a pan. Let get hot on medium heat.

5. Add cauliflower rice, peas, asparagus and pinot grigio.

6. Cook for about 5 minutes, then stir in parmesan cheese.

Sweet Crepes with Strawberry Rhubarb and/or Chocolate Filling (Serves about 5) This recipe features some of the best of spring: strawberry and rhubarb. It seems fancy, but as long as you cook the crepe batter carefully, it’s fairly simple.

Crepe Batter Ingredients: 3/4 cup of milk 1 egg 2 tbsp. of melted butter (plus more for greasing pan) 3/4 cups of flour 1 tsp. vanilla 2 tbsp. brown sugar ¼ tsp. of salt Strawberry Rhubarb Filling Ingredients: 1/2 cup of frozen rhubarb 1 cup of strawberries 1 tsp. lemon juice 3/4 cup brown sugar Chocolate Filling Ingredients: 1/4 cup of heavy cream 1 tsp. of sugar 1 4.4 oz. bar of milk chocolate For garnish: Powdered sugar

Directions: 1. Crush the rhubarb in a blender until smooth, but not completely liquid.

2. Slice the strawberries into small pieces.

3. Pour strawberries, blended rhubarb, 3/4 cup of brown sugar and lemon juice in a pot.

4. Mix on medium heat until brown sugar melts into mixture. Drain out about ½ the liquid, then set aside.

5. Beat heavy cream using mixer until peaks form. Add 1 tsp. sugar, then mix in.

6. Melt chocolate in microwave for 50 seconds, then pour into the cream mixture.

7. Mix together, then set aside.

8. Blend all crepe batter ingredients in a blender.

9. Melt a small spoonful of extra butter over a medium sized pan on medium low heat.

10. Pour about ¼ of batter over the whole pan and quickly tilt the pan to cover it evenly with the crepe mixture. Twist a spatula in circular motions over crepe to spread evenly. Cook about 1 1/2 minutes, then flip over. Cook another 30 seconds then place on plate.

11. Repeat with remaining batter, adding a small spoonful of butter to pan each time.

12. Heat each filling for 10 seconds in the microwave, stir, then fill each crepe with a few spoonfuls of the strawberry rhubarb or chocolate filling. Fold crepes over.

13. Sprinkle with powdered sugar.

⚡ SPORTS NEW NBA DRAFT RULES

could affect duck decisions ➡ Justin

Wise, @JustinFWise

Following Oregon’s 80-68 loss to Oklahoma in the Elite Eight Saturday, graduate transfer Dylan Ennis told reporters he hoped the success this team experienced would create momentum heading into next year’s campaign.

But in this era of college basketball, in which it seems the majority of freshmen and sophomores with NBA potential leave for the pros as soon as the opportunity presents itself, momentum is difficult to build.

Oregon will lose seniors Elgin Cook and Dwayne Benjamin. But a core of the group that won a Pac-12 regular season and tournament championship – Tyler Dorsey (freshman), Chris Boucher (junior) and Dillon Brooks (sophomore) – have six years of eligibility left combined. Which means that their decisions over the next month will be extremely consequential for next year’s outlook.

None have given any direct indication about what their respective futures will look like, but a new NBA Draft rule implemented in January may give them reason to at least test the professional waters.

The rule allows for underclassmen to go through the entire pre-draft process and

still be eligible to return to school. A player like Dorsey, so long as he didn’t sign with an agent, could participate in the 2016 NBA Draft combine, appear in one private team workout and receive a thorough assessment about his professional prospects.

He’d then have up to 10 days after the combine to decide on withdrawing his name from the draft — whereas in 2015, players had to withdraw their names just a week after the Final Four, which ends in early April.

It’s been called a rule that will help student-athletes, and coaches such as North Carolina’s Roy Williams have stated their support. Kentucky head coach John Calipari even shined a spotlight on the new bill, after announcing that all of his players eligible for the draft, including walk-ons, would declare.

The option for a player with pro potential to declare isn’t just possible, but completely rational now. So, despite the fact that Brooks may not even be rated as one of the 100 best draft prospects, according to ESPN draft analyst Chad Ford, the Ducks’ top scorer could still decide to partake in the process.

The same obviously holds true for Dorsey, who is considered Oregon’s best pro prospect,

and Boucher, whose versatility has garnered plenty of intrigue. If neither is invited to the pre-draft combine, they can then withdraw their names. And if they are invited, they can partake in the process and gather as much material as possible about their potential, before making an informed decision.

It appears that all of the Ducks’ underclassmen would benefit largely from another year at the college level. Oregon head coach Dana Altman certainly wants them back.

But this new rule makes declaring for the draft all the more appealing.

Q&A

Oregon women’s soccer seeks to improve discipline on the defensive side.

(Adam Eberhardt)

new goalkeeper and defense coach On Feb. 22, the women’s soccer program announced the hiring of its new goalkeeper and defense coach, Katie Hultin.

Hultin was previously the goalkeeper coach for the University of Illinois, where she helped the team’s defense become one of the top in the conference. Before that, the Washington State graduate served as the goalkeeper coach for Seattle University. The Emerald sat down with Hultin to discuss her thoughts on coaching and the Oregon team.

After your stint at Illinois, that Illini team dramatically improved, specifically their defense. What did you teach that helped them improve so much?

I think a big part of it was, before I got there, the goalkeeper was just a freshman. It’s hard to be a freshman goalie; there’s a big learning curve there. I got a lot of one-on-one time with that particular goalkeeper my first spring there and just helped her understand the game a little bit more and cleaned up her technical side of the game.

Do you see any comparison with your Illinois team and Oregon?

I think the similarities lie in the conference. The Big Ten and the Pac-12 are two power conferences, so they’re both great teams as far as the goalkeeping is concerned. Again, big learning curve when you’re only a freshman. Experience is really one of the biggest things that helps a goalkeeper get better and better, so after a season of some solid experience, I would expect that, with some good work this spring and a good preseason and fall there will be some big improvements there as well.

Have you watched this Duck team play?

I watched a little bit this fall and watched some film recently. Not too much, but I’m looking forward to watching them this spring, for sure.

In the limited time you have seen them, what do you think it might take for them to get over that hump and make a run in the Pac-12?

I think goalscoring is a big piece of it, and also keeping the ball out of the back of the net. I know they’ve been focused on the defensive side of the game as of late, so I would expect that to lead to them being relatively disciplined this spring, defensively.

Now it’s just about building the attack a little bit more.

What do you hope to add to this team as you join the defensive side?

Obviously to limit the amount of scoring opportunities that our opponents get. I think discipline is a big part of it, and understanding the game, reading the game and being able to let the back line sort of run the pace of the game. So a lot of it is going to be education and discipline, I think.

What challenges do you see in coaching this team? Is there anything that you have pinpointed that may be difficult to accomplish?

No, I haven’t pinpointed anything yet. I think every team has their strengths and every team has their areas of opportunity. Over the course of time I think those things will stand out. A big part of coaching is problem solving, so we’ll definitely find some things to tackle and work to get better. b y G u s M o r r i s , @ J u s tG u s M o r r i s

oregon baseball pitchers ➡ Kenny

J a c o b y, @ K e n n y J a c o b y

When Manager George Horton’s addressed the media at practice on March 16, Oregon men’s basketball was about to begin its historic Elite Eight run in the NCAA Tournament. The baseball team, meanwhile, had just been swept in three games by Mississippi State.

Horton broke the ice in his press conference: “You guys just want to talk about our basketball team, right?”

Now that basketball season is over, the focus shifts to the baseball field, where the season thus far has been less than magical. One month ago, Perfect Game ranked Oregon No. 7 in the nation after it swept San Diego State and took three of four against Illinois State. Since, the Ducks (11-9, 2-4 Pac-12) have lost eight of their last 13 games and fallen out of the Top 25.

“We’ve been a little bit of rut,” sophomore Kyle Kasser said. “... Even on this tough skid, everyone is just staying with the process and doing what we do, trying not to do too much, and keeping a positive mindset.”

Oregon’s hitters have struggled mightily. The Ducks sit dead last in the Pac-12 conference in batting average (.211), slugging percentage (.319), hits (6.95) and strikeouts per game (7.90).

They rank second-to-last in on-base percentage (.320).

Conversely, Oregon’s pitchers have excelled. The Ducks boast the conference’s second-lowest opposing batting average (.218) and third-lowest ERA (3.12). They have recorded the most strikeouts per game (9.00) and allowed the second-fewest hits (7.00) and thirdfewest runs per game (3.95).

Unfortunately, no “golden mean” exists between the two extremes; a team cannot have too much offense or quality pitching. The offense is dragging the team down. Oregon cannot make a deep postseason run with its hitters in the doldrums.

“It’d be accurate to say we’re searching for a little spark,” Horton said. “We’re setting the table really well. Coach [Mark Wasikowski] is running the offense well.

We’re putting ourselves in position to have productive innings; we’re just not eating at the table.”

“We’ve had some opportunities. We just haven’t broke it open, so to speak.”

The hitters whom Horton figured would be most reliable have thus far shown to be the opposite. The second through fifth hitters in the batting order to start the season — A.J. Balta, Jakob Goldfarb, Phil Craig-St. Louis and Steven Packard, all of whom are veterans — have combined to hit just .181. Freshmen Matt Kroon and Travis Moniot, who were drafted into the MLB out of high school, together have hit just .148.

Two unlikelier candidates have carried more of the offensive burden of late. Since getting his second start of the season on March 19, Kasser strung together fourstraight multi-hit games and now leads the team with a .435 batting average.

Freshman Jake Bennett is close behind with a .400 batting average. Both have started the past four games. Kasser is hitting in the two-hole, and Bennett has moved up to third in the batting order from sixth.

“Not that [Goldfarb] or [Craig-St. Louis] have a lack of mentality, but what we were looking for was freshness and competitiveness,” Horton said when he benched them in favor Kasser and Bennett on March 19. “... Their strokes are not, right now, in line for that. They want to do it and they battle, but unfortunately right now they don’t have the mechanisms, the tools, to do that.”

Oregon’s pitchers will continue to keep the team competitive in games, but the hitters will need to start contributing more substantially for the Ducks to make good on their guarantee of making the College World Series for the first time under Horton.

the value of stock know-how to the college student Many college students tend to know that the stock market is a central part of the economic system, and acknowledge that it is important to understand, but haven’t taken the time to really learn how it works.

To fully understand the importance of the stock market, one first needs to understand what it does.

In the most basic sense, the stock market, which is made up of many different exchanges including the New York Stock Exchange and NASDAQ, gives companies capital from investors purchasing a piece of the company or what the market calls “stock.�

By owning a piece of the company, that investor is now a shareholder and has the potential to make money off of the stock as the company’s value increases. Richard Fisher, a financial advisor with D.A. Davidson & Co., understands the importance of knowing fundamentals of the stock market. “People should have a knowledge of mutual funds, and a basic knowledge of stocks,� Fisher said.

But where can one go about gaining this knowledge? Fisher recommends reading through websites such as Yahoo Finance, Investor’s Business Daily, Wall Street Journal and Forbes Magazine.

One thing he highlighted was Yahoo Finance, a website that allows anyone to thoroughly research and gather information about the market and the backgrounds of companies and their stocks.

With the Internet providing easy access to information, students have no excuse when it comes to not being educated about the stock market. “It used to be that you had to go to the library and look at the financial statements that were released a quarter before – by the company,�

Fisher said. “Now it’s at your fingertips in Yahoo Finance.�

While the information is readily available, the stock market and its inner workings can be intimidating. If you are looking to learn the basics of the market, but you like your information short and sweet, check out TradeHero Academy on YouTube.

This video series offers a starting point for anyone to learn basic terminology, how to know the difference between stocks and bonds and even how to look at the cycle of the market.

Not only is it important to understand the basic principles of the stock market because it is one of the most crucial parts of our economy,

one should realize that you can invest in just about anything you can think of. Supporting and investing in certain companies can directly affect your future.

Fisher pointed out some companies that are doing big things and specifically discussed biotechnology companies, claiming that they “are extending our lifespans.�

While that is a big statement, he has a point.

If no one chooses to invest in companies and give them capital, much of the technological developments that have been made would never have happened. Without resources, a company is nothing more than a name.

The stock market is an important piece of the international economy, but it’s also so much more than that. It is an entity used to support innovation. College students need to give themselves the building blocks to understand how that system works.

Microdosing Brings back to

cultural relevance

A new group of silicon valley techies, professionals and others around the world are starting to experiment with small doses of LSD in hopes of improving their creativity and focus at work, along with alleviating issues of anxiety and depression. They are calling this idea microdosing.

By using about one-tenth of a recreational dose, the user experiences a slight mental change, what James Fadiman, a leading figure in psychedelic research and author of the The Psychedelic Explorer’s Guide, calls “subperceptual.�

LSD was first synthesized back in 1938 and secretly studied by the CIA in the ‘50s, before peaking in popularity during the ‘60s. Ken Kesey and the Merry Pranksters frequently dropped acid, traversing the country in their psychedelicthemed bus. As the wild ‘60s came to a close, the U.S. federal government made LSD possession illegal and the FDA-approved studies drew to a close in the forthcoming decades.

Ever since, LSD has made occasional appearances in the news, such as when MLB pitcher Dock Ellis threw a no-hitter under the influence of the drug, or when Steve Jobs reported it was one of the “two or three most important things� he had done in his life.

It wasn’t until recently that a new trend in LSD use has appeared. Rolling Stone, Forbes and the Huffington Post all ran stories in the past year discussing the new trend of taking microdoses of the substance.

People are beginning self-experimentation, using these microdoses in hopes of improving their lives. Fadiman receives anecdotal reports from people who have tried microdosing under his protocol, which involves the user dosing every three days. He says that he has received reports from people ranging from a Brazilian jiu jitsu practitioner to a warehouse manufacturer, all raving about the positive effects of their new routine.

Baynard Woods, author of a Vox article on microdosing, says microdosing helped him knock his Internet addiction, at least temporarily. Woods explained that he doesn’t think microdosing increased his willpower, he simply, “didn’t feel a desire to go online� and the “habitual cycle got broken.�

It’s not clear how many people really are on board with this new fad, since LSD in all dosages, including microdoses, is illegal, and people are reluctant to admit to using psychedelics. But people are beginning to realize the propaganda that has spread surrounding hallucinogenic drugs is greatly exaggerated.

As attitudes towards marijuana have rapidly changed in the U.S. over the past decade, people’s views on psychedelics are starting to follow suit. These substances might have great potential in treating trauma and addictions and aiding with positive transformational experiences if used in the right setting.

Drugs such as LSD have been around and studied for much longer than the pharmaceutical drugs that are reaching the market. Because of the outdated beliefs that are in place, we somehow feel OK dosing 5-yearolds with amphetamines (Adderall), but refuse to examine another substance because of its illegality or negative associations.

Fadiman said, “Microdosing is the safest known way to use psychedelics.�

He also suggests that microdosing LSD is a reasonable alternative to Adderall or antidepressants that have addictive properties and a lot of side effects for many people.

Not all people are so convinced quite yet. “It [microdosing] strikes me as a media phenomena,� Woods said. He went on to say that the reason these sort of drugs got banned in the first place was because of grandiose claims from people who see psychedelics as a great evil.

The media frenzy surrounding microdosing may be blowing the movement out of proportion, but the important thing is that people are beginning to become aware of the potential good this substance could bring.

Despite being in its infancy, formal research surrounding microdosing LSD is beginning in Europe and Australia.

People should have the right to choose what to put into their own bodies, not the government. It’s clear the drug war was a failure on all ends, resulting in racial discrimination and unfair punishments for drug use. We are moving into an age where people are beginning to see the discrepancies between what doctors, pharmaceutical companies and the government are claiming and the truth.

The new LSD microdosing trend is just the beginning of a much bigger movement towards drug reforms and a more open approach to substances that were once thought of as destructive.
