Cuts to University Summer months see more crime still unknown IS SUMMER MORE DANGEROUS? Trey Labat Staff Writer
Taylor Schoen Staff Writer
As the state budget for the new fiscal year unrolls, it’s still largely unclear how the cuts will affect the University. Tommy Smith, University budget and planning director, said the numbers are still being worked out and a final plan on how the cuts will take toll won’t be known for certain until around August. However, he said a new development occurred around
midnight on Wednesday morning. A tuition swap with the Louisiana Community and Technical College System resulted in a $1.4 million from the University after recalibrating the numbers from the swap, according to Smith. He also said $10 million was allocated to the LSU System, but of that money, $1 million will be going to Pennington Biomedical Research Center. “So there’s $9 million that was allocated to the System

INTERNATIONAL Brazilian protesters, police clash near soccer match over corruption penalties BELO HORIZONTE, Brazil (AP) — Brazilian protesters and police clashed Wednesday near a stadium hosting a Confederations Cup soccer match, as thousands of demonstrators trying to march on the site were met by tear gas and rubber bullets. Brazil’s senate voted to increase penalties for those found guilty of corruption, responding to a key demand made by protesters across the country. According to police Capt. Flavio Almeida, the use of force began when protesters tried to break through the outer barrier of police. Snowden mystery deepens: All eyes on Russian airport for clues MOSCOW (AP) — Moscow’s main airport swarmed with journalists from around the globe Wednesday, but the man they were looking for, National Security Agency leaker Edward Snowden, was nowhere to be seen. The mystery of his whereabouts only deepened a day after President Vladimir Putin said that Snowden was in the transit area of Sheremetyevo Airport. There were scenes of duty-free shopping, snoozing travelers and tourists sipping coffee, but no trace of America’s most famous fugitive.

Sentence lifted for feminists’ topless Tunisian courthouse protest TUNIS, Tunisia (AP) — A Tunisian court suspended prison sentences Wednesday for three European feminist activists who were jailed after a topless courthouse protest last month, their lawyer said. The lawyer, Bahri Souhaib, said the women were to be freed immediately and would leave Tunisia as soon as possible. The members of the Ukrainian feminist group Femen —two French, one German — maintained during the trial that there was nothing sexual or offensive about their protest.

Texas gov. calls second special session on abortion following filibuster
Energy efficiency incentive program stalled for adjustments
AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Gov. Rick Perry called a second special session of the Texas Legislature on Wednesday to pass widespread abortion restrictions across the state, after the first attempt by Republicans died overnight following a marathon onewoman filibuster. Perry ordered lawmakers to meet again July 1 to act on the abortion proposals, as well as bills that would boost highway funding and deal with juvenile justice. The sweeping abortion rules would close nearly all the state’s abortion clinics and impose widespread restrictions. Pro football player Hernandez charged with murder after argument
(AP) — The state’s utility regulatory agency is reviving a planned statewide energy efficiency program, but is delaying implementation to work on modifications. The Louisiana Public Service Commission has gone back and forth on the program, approving it in December, then shelving it in February. Wednesday’s vote restarts conversation about the program. The program would offer incentives to people to make their homes and businesses more energy-efficient, with incentive costs passed along to all utility customers.
ATTLEBORO, Mass. (AP) — New England Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez was arrested Wednesday and charged with murder in the shooting death of a friend prosecutors say had angered the NFL player at a nightclub a few days earlier by talking to the wrong people. Hernandez, 23, was taken from his North Attleboro home in handcuffs just over a week after Boston semi-pro football player Odin Lloyd’s bullet-riddled body was found in an industrial park a mile away.

Supreme Court ruling on Voting Rights Act worries minorities in Ala. COLUMBIANA, Ala. (AP) — Much has changed in Shelby County since Congress passed the 1965 Voting Rights Act to protect minority rights at the polls, but much hasn’t. The county — which successfully challenged one of the law’s key provisions before the U.S. Supreme Court — has grown exponentially in the past five decades, yet its racial balance has remained roughly constant with whites constituting an overwhelming majority of the population.
Amtrak train collides with van, kills driver; passengers unharmed CADE (AP) — An Amtrak train collided with a van on Wednesday and killed the woman driving the vehicle, which had stopped on the tracks at a railroad crossing near Lafayette, officials said. Amtrak spokesman Marc Magliari said none of the 125 passengers aboard the train were injured in the crash. Magliari said a crew member apparently suffered a knee injury while getting off the train after the collision.

Twoheaded turtle hatches The Associated Press SAN ANTONIO (AP) — A two-headed turtle hatched at the San Antonio Zoo, and officials have named her Thelma and Louise. The female Texas cooter arrived June 18 and will go on display Thursday at the zoo's Friedrich Aquarium. Zoo spokeswoman Debbie Rios-Vanskike said the turtle appears healthy and is able to swim and walk. She says experts at the zoo don't foresee any health issues for Thelma and Louise, named for the female duo in the 1991 Oscar-winning road movie of the same name.

Staff Writer
The Louisiana Board of Regents revealed a new website and discussed a social media platform Wednesday afternoon in the Claiborne Building in downtown Baton Rouge. Three members from the board, Lance Neal, Louise Flavin and Jared Avery, dominated the meeting with a presentation that drew out the group’s plans for the future, which included a new approach to social media through an updated website. Neal noted how the board intends to change the current website to have a more fluid layout. “What we want to do is implement something that will give us something a little more up-to-date [compared to the old Board of Regents website] that will have some moving pieces and parts, and we have the ability to update it more,” Neal said. The board’s new website, regents.la.gov, includes a banner that can be updated on a regular basis, as well as categorized banners for easy scrolling for anyone who interacts with it. Social media has also been integrated into the new website, as a new Facebook page and Youtube page are being added. Press releases, presentations and a multimedia center are all available to use. One area of the site Neal emphasized is the data publications section, which lays out “enrollment information, graduation rates, completions and academic programs that are approved.” Another goal of the board is to help researchers and communicators use new strategies to better

relay their messages to both the media and the general public. “My goal is to help researchers specifically break down their message,” Flavin said. “They’re known for using very technical jargon that is kind of hard for the average person to understand. This way, they’ll be able to break some of those barriers between researchers and the public.” Flavin went on to show a three-minute video that helped explain several of the talking points of the board, and the video will be available on the Board of Regents website at a later date. Avery later took his turn at the podium, stating that the current generation of Americans is looking toward college education at record numbers. Because of this, he noted that several steps need to be taken to help these future students achieve success in higher education. “First, it implies that a significant proportion of students … have the ability and also the
willingness to pursue a degree in higher education,” Avery said. “Secondly, it implies an even greater amount of resources are needed to help these students develop plans to have success in college. Thirdly, it implies that even greater attention must be given toward helping students complete certificates of degrees while going to college.” With this, the new “Geaux to College” campaign will help students connect to officials and find resources. Other aspects of the website include a student financial resource page and information provided by the U.S. Department of Education. Students can use the site to retrieve information regarding different Louisiana universities, and parents and guardians can also use the site for their own benefits.

Gay marriage decision greeted with mixed reactions Kevin McGill The Associated Press
NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Legally married to her longtime partner in Canada in 2007, Kelly Bryson is talking about a second wedding — in the U.S. this time — after Wednesday’s Supreme Court ruling striking down a law denying federal beneďŹ ts to married gay couples. “My plan is for us to get married — I think New York does not have a residency requirement — to get married there and I absolutely think that the federal beneďŹ ts will follow,â€? said Bryson. The FBI agent in New Orleans spoke hours after the high court Wednesday struck down a major portion of the federal Defense of Marriage Act while clearing the way for the resumption of gay marriages in California. Same-sex marriage and civil unions remain illegal in Louisiana. And the full implications of the
decision were not entirely clear for people living outside the 13 states where gay marriage is recognized. “Outside of these states, federal marriage beneďŹ ts become more complicated, as many commonly thought-of federal beneďŹ ts, such as jointly ďŹ ling on federal income taxes, are tied to a married couple’s place of residence,â€? the National Conference of State Legislatures said in a news release. Still, Bryson was cheered by the Supreme Court action and expects beneďŹ ts she has as a federal employee will be extended to her partner, Erica Knott, and their sons, ages 6 and 7, once they are married in the U.S. John Hill, spokesman for Forum For Equality, which supports rights for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people, said the group began discussions with attorneys Wednesday on what the law means in Louisiana and whether any federal rights denied in the state might someday be fodder for a new
challenge to Louisiana’s gay marriage ban. In contrast, the decision brought swift, sharp criticism from U.S. Rep. Steve Scalise, who, as a state legislator, sponsored the amendment banning same-sex marriages and civil unions. “It is a sad day when the same court that upheld Obamacare decides to reverse course on thousands of years of tradition and a strong bipartisan coalition in Congress by striking down the Defense of Marriage Act,� said Scalise, RJefferson. “This Supreme Court ruling marks a low point in judicial activism where unelected judges turned against traditional marriage which has been a hallmark of American society since our nation’s founding.� Louisiana Family Forum, a conservative Christian organization, was pleased that neither decision by the court established a constitutional right to same-sex marriage, saying it “refused to
completely undermine traditional marriage throughout all 50 states, including Louisiana.â€? “However,â€? the group’s statement added, “it is disturbing and perplexing that the court has ruled that the federal government has no right to afďŹ rm natural marriage.â€? SarahJane Brady, executive director of Forum For Equality, acknowledged that the decision doesn’t legalize gay marriage in Louisiana. Still, she called the action “a massive victory.â€? “I actually think I let out a holler when I saw it,â€? Brady said. Gay rights organizations, including Forum For Equality, planned a celebration Wednesday evening in the French Quarter. “While this is a joyous day for many married couples and families, Louisiana remains one of 37 states that still treat lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) citizens and their children as unequal and second-class,â€? the group said in a news release.
The amendment Scalise sponsored as a member of the Louisiana Legislature, before he was elected to Congress, was passed by 78 percent of those voting in a 2004 election. Hill believes attitudes that prevailed then are changing, even in conservative Louisiana. He points to a Public Policy Polling survey conducted Feb. 8-12. The automated telephone poll of 603 Louisiana voters showed that, while 59 percent said same-sex marriage should not be allowed, 25 percent said it should, and another 29 percent said same-sex civil unions should be allowed. The poll, which PPP said was not paid for by any campaign or political group, had a margin for error of plus or minus 4 percentage points.

LGBT
Baton Rouge residents celebrate ruling Taylor Schoen Staff Writer
Proponents of LGBT equality have waited decades for the historic Supreme Court ruling made yesterday: The federal government will recognize gay marriages as legitimate. Although Louisiana is not a state where gay marriage is legal, Baton Rouge residents still celebrated the monumental step forward for marriage equality. The Metropolitan Community Church, a church that welcomes LGBT people as well as people of all faiths, held a small celebration in honor of SCOTUS striking down section 3 of the Defense of Marriage Act and Proposition 8. Reverend Keith Mozingo, a pastor of MCC, shared some of the church’s history involving gay
marriage and unions over the years. He said this December will mark MCC’s 30th year in Baton Rouge. “Today was a great win, but there’s more work to be done,â€? Mozingo said. “I’m thankful for the 13 states and Washington, D.C. ... I have friends in a lot of those states that are married legally now and will get the ... 1138 beneďŹ ts that they deserve.â€? Matthew Patterson, Capital City Alliance education and advocacy committee chair and political coordinator of Equality Louisiana, spoke about the political effects of the Supreme Court ruling and what Louisiana can do to progress equality. “I see ‌ 25, 26 people counting me in this room. So if nine people just changed the law the entire country has to follow, what are we going to do?â€? Patterson asked. “We have a lot more numbers than that. So this is clearly not the end, we have many
more battles to ďŹ ght.â€? Tom Merrill, chairman of Baton Rouge Pride and University Agriculture Center communications professor, weighed in on the ruling, noting that Louisiana still has a long way to go. “It’s still a great thing for every one of us,â€? Merrill said. “It’s a good thing for the state. It’s still a great thing for our country ... baby steps get us there.â€? Patrick Cain, lay delegate of MCC and University medical school professor, said the Supreme Court’s wording in their decisions on DOMA and Prop. 8 sets the stage for LGBT people in conservative states to challenge their state’s deďŹ nition of a legal marriage. He said this process will likely pave the way for red states to legalize gay marriage. “Let other people know that the person that they work with, live next
to, is an LGBT person.� Cain advised. “And if you liked me yesterday and didn’t know, then there’s no reason once you do know it should be any different.� Contact Taylor Schoen at tschoen@lsureveille.com

RECRUITS
Tigers poised to have the best recruiting class in years TREY LABAT • Staff Writer
LSU football has become a pipeline of NFL talent, and every year the Tigers lose a few players to the pros. The fan reaction is always the same: “What will we do now that ‘Star Player X’ is gone?” Since coach Les Miles has been here, the Tigers have simply reloaded with the high school ranks. This year LSU lost juniors Barkevious Mingo, Sam Montgomery and Bennie Logan, and seniors Lavar Edwards, Josh Downs and Chancey Aghayere, all of whom made up most of the defensive line rotation. So, the Tigers reached out to the 2013 recruiting class and brought in eight defensive linemen — all of whom were four-star prospects or higher — to fill those six holes. Judging by the class of prospects emanating from Louisiana alone, LSU should be poised for its strongest recruiting class in years. Depending on the recruiting site, Louisiana has as many as five five-star prospects this year, compared to last year when Tre’Davious White — who is now a member of the Tigers — was the only topranked recruit. Of the ESPN 150, 12 reside in Louisiana, and LSU has already secured the commitments of three of them. The star in this year’s class is five-star running back Leonard Fournette, the highest-ranked recruit in the land according to both ESPN and 247.com. Coming in at 6-foot-1 and 232 pounds, Fournette’s blend of size and speed have teams around the nation seeing him as the best running back prospect since Trent Richardson. Fournette recently led his school, St. Augustine

Take one trip out to any high school in the middle of nowhere in “The Pelican State,” and you’ll understand why football is more than just a game around these parts. Football is life in Louisiana, if not the entire South, so it’s clear why the majority of top recruits arise from below the MasonDixon line. The sports-centric environment as a whole is a breeding ground for talent. There’s no denying it: Louisiana football players are developed by their surroundings. Since 2006, LSU has recruited 108 players from Louisiana and 193 prospects from the South. There’s a reason why such talent exists in the bayous. I had the pleasure of covering a Friday-night spectacle in Loranger, a town roughly an hour outside of Baton Rouge, to watch the lightningfast LSU 2013 recruit Jeryl Brazil display his talents between the lines. Upon arrival in Loranger, one would immediately notice the lack of people parading the streets. Every townsperson was seemingly in one place, as they crowded around the high school football stadium. The crowd stood huddled four rows deep, and that’s excluding the TALENT, see page 7
Patriots rushed to pass judgment on Hernandez THE SMARTEST MORAN JAMES MORAN Contributing Writer I guess the phrase “innocent until proven guilty” doesn’t hold a lot of weight in Foxborough, Mass. Massachusetts State Police arrested Aaron Hernandez on Wednesday morning, and then the Patriots’ star tight end was no longer a Patriot. The Patriots unconditionally released the embattled 23-yearold less than two hours after news broke of the arrest. At the time of his release, police had not even announced any charges against Hernandez. Police later announced that Hernandez is being charged with
murder, but when he was arrested, no one outside of the authorities was aware of that. Patriots owner Robert Kraft decided trials are overrated and became the judge, the jury and the executioner all rolled into one. The Patriots moved quickly because they were fed up with the media circus surrounding the investigation. The news media has lived on Hernandez’s front lawn for more than a week, giving aroundthe-clock updates on every rumor that surfaced. If that negative attention wasn’t enough, the organization probably didn’t like when Hernandez lived out a classic scene from “Goodfellas” by driving into work with a police helicopter following him. The chopper hovered over the practice facility as Hernandez was immediately sent home.
Not a surprising reaction. I never imagined the people who brought us Spygate would really want a police helicopter floating over their heads all day. The coverage has been so constant and negative that talk about Tim Tebow’s first few days at the Patriots’ camp has been limited. I honestly didn’t think that was possible. The Patriots are a proud organization, and they simply got tired of seeing their brand attached to this story. If you’re Kraft, seeing your team’s logo on the side of the screen next to Hernandez’s face on every ESPN update must get old fast. Kraft’s irritation may explain why Hernandez was handed his walking papers before he had his HERNANDEZ, see page 7

day, or even a day in court. I do believe the Patriots should be applauded for not going easy on Hernandez simply because he is a great player. A lot of organizations will overlook a star player’s legal troubles in order to keep them on the field. Michael Vick, Adam “Pacman” Jones and Dez Bryant all had legal troubles and kept their jobs longer than Hernandez. The natural response to this argument is that Hernandez is being charged with murder, which is far more serious than dog or bar fighting. But former Ravens linebacker Ray Lewis was charged with murder in 2000, and his team stuck with him all the way through his second Super Bowl victory this past February. The Patriots’s decision is understandable, but they could have waited to see how this plays out, or at least to find out what Hernandez is accused of doing before releasing him for doing it. I’m not saying that he doesn’t deserve to be released if these serious allegations turn out to be true. It’s just that in this country, you are presumed innocent until you are found guilty, right?

of New Orleans, to a championship in a seven-on-seven tournament sponsored by the New Orleans Saints. LSU sports a distinct advantage when it comes to Fournette, as running back coach Frank Wilson is an alumnus of St. Aug and knows the Fournette family well. Wilson was also recently named National Recruiter of the Year by recruiting website rivals.com. During Miles’ reign, LSU has dominated recruiting in Louisiana. Since 2006, 108 of LSU’s recruits have hailed from Louisiana, the most of any state, with Texas being a distant second at 25. “People who say it’s easy to keep kids in Louisiana at home at LSU just don’t know,” Wilson told Rivals after receiving his award. “Sure there are some kids that just want to play for LSU and that’s their dream, but nowadays temptation to get out of state and play for some other great programs is always there. And it’s our job to fend them off as best we can.” LSU’s 2014 recruiting class looks like it could be a strong one even without the Louisiana talent, though. LSU has secured the commitments of five highly ranked out-of-state recruits — safety Ed Paris, athlete Devin Voorhies, outside linebacker Shareef Rhaheed, corner back Chris Hardeman and most recently defensive

end Deondre Clark. In an interview with The Daily Reveille in March, Hardeman’s coach Jordy Jordan explained why LSU has become such a great landing spot for topranked high school players. “LSU takes its athletes and lets them be athletes,” Jordan said. “I think [Hardeman] will thrive in the system at LSU. He helps improve the people all around him, and he’s big on LSU. He talks about it. I know he’s all LSU right now.”

early arrivals who found seats in the stands. What followed was what can only be described as a light show followed by the blasting of hype music. No one could convince me that there was somewhere better to be or anything better to do that night. It was a metaphorical rock concert, and the people of Loranger were the screaming fans. If that’s not a reason for a young athlete to want to play football, then I’m not sure what is. Football players are drawn to the hype, and the people of Louisiana know how to provide it. Parents regularly take their children to Death Valley on Saturday nights in the fall, and the Purple and Gold begins running through young veins before they leave the stadium. What’s better than a roaring crowd of
93,000 people to motivate a child to one day strap on the pads? People can’t get that kind of experience in the northern half of the country. It’s a Southern mentality. The lack of other decent professional teams in Louisiana also plays into account. How many kids are honestly growing up wanting to play for the New Orleans Pelicans? Any Zephyrs hopefuls out there? Kids grow up wanting to be a Tiger first and that’s how it’s probably going to be for a long, long time. Lawrence Barreca is a 20-year-old mass communication junior from Slidell.

TAYLOR SCHOEN • Staff Writer As the heat bounces off the pavement and the humidity grows stronger everyday, it can be a challenge to stay cool in Baton Rouge. Local snoball stands are helping residents stave off the sweltering weather. Here are my five favorite stands in the campus area.
1. Sno-Man Snoballs 9534 Burbank Drive
1
Sno-Man’s Cream
Sno-Man is one of the most wellrevered stands in Baton Rouge. I ordered the signature “Sno-Man’s Cream” stuffed snoball. The treat was a pretty cyan hue and tasted like a petit four or cake icing. The flavor was good on its own, maybe a little too sweet for my tastes, but the vanilla soft serve that it was stuffed with is what propelled it to the top of the list. Sno-Man also offers other unique features like a few food side items and a variety of toppings.
2. Zydeco Sneaux 300 Lee Drive
2
Blackberry
Zydeco Sneaux is a new stand, located the parking lot of the Tiger Express gas station. While the stand may not be much to look at, the snoballs were a pleasant surprise. Zydeco Sneaux is innovative when it comes to their craft. An employee informed me they actually cook the syrup used in the snoballs, which gives them a better and less artificial flavor. They also offer a flavor of the week special, which gives customers 50 cents off whatever size in that flavor. This week’s flavor was blackberry. The difference in the quality of syrup was quite notable and gave the dessert a fresher quality than other snoballs. SNOBALL, see page 11

Morimoto not for the faint of heart THE BREWMASTER CONNOR TARTER Columnist The Rogue Morimoto Imperial Pilsner is a fabulous candidate for representing my idea of what a pilsner should be. It would easily be my go-to for introducing a first time pilsner drinker to that type of beer. Rogue appeals to the artist in me. All of their signature beers are bottled in well-designed packages, the Morimoto being no exception. Rather than a glass pint that sports a colorful coating, as seen on Rogue’s Double Chocolate Stout and their Voodoo Doughnut series, this beer is bottled in a sturdy ceramic pint with a stopper on top, which I
find to be a nice touch. The name, Morimoto, immediately calls into mind some oriental themes, which are echoed in the artwork depicted on the bottle. Red and yellow brush strokes provide a backdrop for some oriental lettering. Popping the cap off, a pleasant cold fog pours out of the neck, inviting me to take a whiff before I’ve even poured the beer. Sure enough, the aroma is flowery and malty, warning me of the strong hop and malt flavors that reside within. Upon pouring, a beautiful, fluffy white head rises out of the glass, about three inches tall. The floral aroma is much more pronounced now, nearly filling the whole room. PILSNER, see page 11

India.Arie, “Songversation”
TELEVISION
Motown Records
India.Arie’s fifth studio album, “Songversation,” made its debut this week. India returns from a four-year hiatus with more of the same, but that may not be a bad thing in her case. The songstress continues to show off her velvety voice and lyrics about love, peace, and positivity. An interesting track on the album is India’s cover of “Strange Fruit.” The song, made famous in the 1930’s by singer Billie Holiday, was used as a poetic tool to expose American racism. India’s rendition is a mix of modern synthesizers and loud drums that still manages to keep in line with the jazzy feel of Holiday’s version. “Songversation” is a great album to listen to while lounging around this summer. Songs like “Thy Will Be Done,” a collaboration with reggae artist Gramps Morgan, and “Nothing That I Love More” should be added to every summer playlist. AGGI ASHAGRE

Wale, “The Gifted”
Atlantic Records
In a summer full of disappointing rap albums, there was reason to be concerned that Wale’s “The Gifted” would follow that trend. It wasn’t clear whether his music would be overly influenced by Rick Ross or if he’d lose touch with what made him so great in the past. Fear not — “The Gifted” is classic Wale with a good mix of introspective songs like “LoveHate Thing” and “Vanity,” as well as a throwback to his D.C. roots with “Clappers,” a song over a go-go beat featuring Nicki Minaj and Juicy J. Most of the songs are deep, and Wale’s verses get better the more times they’re listened to. It’s a perfect album to put on and chill out to on a hot summer afternoon or night. If all of that isn’t enough for you, Jerry Seinfeld is featured on the outro in the greatest tease ever recorded.

“Catfish,” Season 2 premiere
MTV
MTV aired the season two premiere of “Catfish” on Tuesday night. The reality show investigates suspicious relationships held over the Internet. Show hosts Nev and Max attempt to bring both parties together while usually discovering the other person isn’t who they seem. The episode centers on Cassie, a Miami resident who works at local radio station. After her father’s death, she drinks, parties and engages in promiscuous behavior. A handsome rapper, “Steve,” comes to her rescue, and they form a relationship for more than two years through phone calls and text messages. She also asked him to marry her. The show gives an interesting twist that most viewers won’t see coming. The laughable drama and Cassie’s confession about phone sex on national TV made this episode hilarious and worth watching.

‘Bingeing’ preferred for TV Aggi Ashagre Contributing Writer
The thought of moderation isn’t one that exists to this generation of television viewers. Instead, there’s binge watching. Binge-watching is the act of watching a season or a whole series of a single television show in a span of only a few days or weeks. Digital video recorders and streaming services such as Netflix, HBO Go and Hulu have made it easier for avid television watchers to view years’ worth of virtually any series in only a few sittings. Gone are the days of “appointment viewing.” Viewers are no longer forced to sit through commercials and watch their favorite shows on whatever day and time the network chooses. Alternatively, the viewer is now in control. A new wave of shows that are being created just for binge watching allow viewers to continue to
Paramount Pictures
“World War Z” was essentially what every zombie-related film has turned into: a lot of action, a not-so-great plot and plenty of explosions. In this CGI-filled “end of days” thriller, Brad Pitt takes on the role of Gerry Lane, an ex-U.N. crisis specialist who is thrown back into the fire when a “zombie” outbreak engulfs the world. Lane, who survives a number of seemingly impossible situations, is considered one of the primary operatives for eventually finding a cure to the apocalypse. Fans of the book will see connections, but anyone expecting a retelling of the 2006 narrative will be disappointed. Most action scenes were CGI, and though it produced a decent effect, it also took away from any realism the movie was striving for. Overall, “World War Z” is a decent action flick, but there was certainly potential for a better product. LAWRENCE BARRECA

Ellery James Roberts, “Kerou’s Lament”
Self-released
One of 2011’s best (and oddest) debut albums was WU LYF’s “Go Tell Fire to the Mountain.” It was solid entry into the anthemic indie-rock category, but mystery shrouded the group, whose name actually stands for “World Unite Lucifer Youth Foundation.” A scary name for a seriously talented band proved a bad omen, as lead singer Ellery James Roberts left the group in 2012 with a “don’t let the door hit you on the way out” online farewell to his bandmates. Roberts finally gives the band’s fans a taste of his solo progress with “Kerou’s Lament.” It sounds familiar quickly with Roberts’ signature gritty, booming vocals. Looking past his voice, though, shows that Roberts still has much to offer apart from WU LYF. “Kerou’s Lament” starts on a high and ends even higher. It manages to pull off what sometimes failed on “Go Tell Fire to the Mountain.” It’s as promising as it is moving. BRIAN SIBILLE

EDITOR’S PICK: “Monsters University”
Disney / Pixar
Pixar can do prequels too. The animation giant’s latest film, “Monsters University,” explores the past of Mike Wazowski (Billy Crystal) and James P. “Sulley” Sullivan (John Goodman) as they try to make it through college. Surprisingly, the two start off as rivals in the school’s scare program. While the characters might be meant for a young audience, much of the humor is appropriate for college-aged students, with references to everything from terrifying deans to the greek community. Pixar’s animation is spectacular as always — especially in the short film, “The Blue Umbrella,” which appears before the film. Where the movie falls short is something that plagues most film continuations: it’s simply not as good as the original “Monsters, Inc.” TAYLOR BALKOM

practice that control. Netflix has spearheaded the movement by producing original programming like “House of Cards,” “Hemlock Grove” and the revival of “Arrested Development.” Instead of releasing multiple series by episode, like traditional television, Netflix releases one full season at a time. This enables viewers to watch at their leisure, whether that means one episode in a week or thirteen episodes in a day. After watching six seasons of the CW show “Supernatural” in just three weeks, Rheagan Chambers, biological engineering junior, says she definitely prefers binge watching to traditional appointment viewing. “I prefer watching shows all in one sitting,” Chambers said. “Waiting for the next week is torture, especially with cliffhanger endings.” Now the question is: Since viewers can now control over what
they watch and when and where they watch it, what will happen to television viewing of the past? Earlier this year, Nielsen, a company that studies consumer trends, reported the U.S. has over five million “zero TV” households so far in 2013. The updated number is up from just over 2 million zero-TV households in 2007. These consumers have completely tuned out traditional television and are instead turning to their internetconnected devices to view all of their video content. These alternate sources for video content are avenues that lead consumers toward binge-watching habits. As alternatives to television continue to become conveniently available to the public, only time will tell if traditional viewing will one day become completely obsolete.

Lois Lane provides strong female role model LIZZY ON THE LOOSE Elizabeth garcia Columnist In her performance in the new Superman flick “Man of Steel,” actress Amy Adams took audiences back to a classic Lois Lane, who is a go-getter and far from a damsel in distress. But this new movie and past media portrayals of Lane bare the question, why is she so popular in a crowd of male superheroes? It’s simple. Lane is more than a plot device for Superman, and for the most part, she has escaped the sexism prevalent within the comic book industry. While I commend DC Comics for their inclusion of such a strong female character in one of their most popular books, it is discouraging that this is one of the only examples of a strong female protagonist in the comic book industry. Every since her debut in “Action Comics #1” in 1938, Lane has played an intricate part in the development of Superman’s story, which is not common among other comics. In the current continuum, Lois Lane is an army brat, PulitzerPrize-winning journalist who has had a 75-year relationship with Clark Kent (a.k.a. Superman). Lane’s character was designed

Check out what readers had to say in our comment section: In response to Robert Klare’s column, “Smoking ban on campus misguided, unfounded,” readers wrote: “The current antismoking crusade is much like previous crusades. It is a moralizing, social-engineering, eradication/ prohibition crusade decided upon in the 1970s by a small, self-installed clique of [medically-oriented] fanatics operating under the auspices of the World Health Organization (see the Godber Blueprint http://www.rampantantismoking.com ). This little, unelected group decided for everyone that tobacco-use should
as the female counterpart to Superman and his alter ego Kent. Her appearance and personality were based on various people including Joanne Carter, a model hired by Siegel and Shuster; Torchy Blane, a female reporter from 1930s films; and Nellie Bly, one of the first female reporters. “Her origins are from strength, and that’s the one thing that runs through the character. They’ll put her in peril, but she always still has some level of strength,” said novelist and comic book writer Brad Meltzer. Lane is more than just Superman’s squeeze as she has held her own over the past 75 years. She balances the Man of Steel and brings him down to size. If Superman is a god, who better to cut him down than an investigative journalist? She is more than just a girlfriend in the DC Universe. Lane is unlike female comic book characters of her time — even today — because she takes a leadership role both in her community and in her relationship with Kent. There aren’t any female character in DC or Marvel universes who embody this better than Lane, and — more importantly — there isn’t any other female character that has avoided being a plot device like Lane. “Whether or not she was
romantically involved with Clark Kent or Superman, Lois would still be in that story. That’s why I think women like her as a character, why they spark to her, because she has a reason to be there,” said Grace Randolph, creator and host of Beyond The Trailer and Think About The Ink at Midtown Comics in New York City, in an interview with USA Today. Lane is a dynamic character women can look up to. She embodies the best in humanity and proves even those without powers can make a difference. She isn’t a damsel in distress but instead a serious investigative reporter who can keep with the times. This and her city girl appeal are what keep audiences interested, and she’s the “one” for Superman because she connects with him so intimately that it brings him closest to humanity. “He was a little too much this perfect Boy Scout, and although Lois was feisty and strong she was still always the one being rescued. Not to say that she doesn’t get rescued in our movie, but she rescues him right back, in so many other ways, She saves him,” said “Man of Steel” producer Deborah Snyder in a recent interview. Actor Henry Cavill, the new Superman in “Man of Steel,” spoke about his idea of what Lane was to Kent.
be eradicated from the world. These fanatics were speaking of secondhand smoke “danger” years before the first study on SHS, together with advocating indoor and OUTDOOR smoking bans: Secondhand smoke “danger” is a concoction to advance the social-engineering agenda, i.e., inflammatory propaganda. The zealots’ goal this time is not to ban the sale of tobacco but to ban smoking in essentially all the places that people smoke. Up until recently the social-engineering intent has been masqueraded as protecting nonsmokers from secondhand smoke “danger”. But even this fraud is no longer viable in that bans are now being instituted for large outdoor areas such as parks, beaches, campuses where there is no demonstrable “health” issue for nonsmokers. “America has been a “leader” in this antismoking insanity which other countries are following suit. The problem with Americans is that they are clueless to even their own recent history.
They have a terrible history with this sort of “health” fanaticism/ zealotry/extremism. Antismoking is not new. It has a long, sordid, 400+ year history, much of it predating even the semblance of a scientific basis or the more recent concoction of secondhand smoke “danger”. Antismoking crusades typically run on inflammatory propaganda, i.e., lies, in order to get law-makers to institute bans. Statistics and causal attribution galore are conjured. “The current antismoking rhetoric has all been heard before. All it produces is irrational fear and hatred, discord, enmity, animosity, social division, and bigotry. It’s unfortunate that Americans are clueless as to even their recent history.

Unfortunately, the propaganda did its destructive job in the short term, producing mass hysteria or a bigotry bandwagon. When supported by the State, zealots seriously mess with people’s minds on a mass scale. “….the population has become willing to criminalize the behavior of a full quarter of our population.” Yep. That’s what happens when fanatics/zealots/ extremists are allowed to dominate proceedings, and fully supported/funded by government and vested financial interests such as pharmaceutical companies peddling essentially useless “nicotine replacement” wares. It’s social engineering that most Americans would have found repugnant not all too long ago. That there are such bans shows how far the masses have been

In light of Obama’s recent remarks, do the benefits of religion-specific schools outweigh the costs? Yes, they are a foundation of American tradition. No, they prohibit diversity and create division. THE GEG STAND MIKE GEGENHEIMER Columnist This country is founded upon the great belief that we, as Americans, are allotted freedoms to do with our life as we please. The American dream is an idea that allows people to forge their own paths in this society and make of it what they will. Our unified belief in this dream is what makes us great, but our freedom of differences is what makes us the greatest. Among the many freedoms Americans experience, two at the core of this dream are the freedoms to practice whatever religion you see fit and to have the capabilities to seek an education. The idea of a parochial school in America is almost as old as the idea of education in America. In fact, the first parochial school in the New World came 170 years prior to the Founding Fathers ever stepping foot in Independence Hall when a group of Franciscan missionaries started a school in St. Augustine, Fla. There is a division in this country drawn by the separation of religion and in the school system, but unlike the divides of racial segregation, the choice to decide which religion to practice is one that makes us who we are, and there is no better place to learn those pious doctrines than in a school setting. If I wish for my child to receive a Catholic education, there’s a school for that. If I wish for my child to receive a Jewish education, there’s a school for that. Islamic, Buddhist, Methodist, Baptist, there’s a school for that. Even if I want my child to learn no religion in school, there are independent private schools and, of course, public education offers a learning environment outside of religious bounds, providing contact with people of all religions and beliefs. The idea is that we have a choice in our education and that’s good — that is America. Last week, President Barack Obama gave a speech to children in Northern Ireland where the divides between Catholics and Protestants have long been violent. Many children in Northern Ireland are sent to those schools to keep them with their own kind but, more importantly, away from the others. This has the familiar ring of “white-only” schools in the Jim Crow South. I’m not going to be silly enough to pretend there aren’t people in America who are hostile to those who don’t believe the same thing they do, but the positive people who only seek a better education in the form they want it in far outweigh the dissenters. Even in Louisiana, religious education is at the heart of our state’s history.
The all-girls Ursuline Academy in New Orleans is the oldest Catholic high school in the country, having been founded in 1727. The Archdiocese of New Orleans lays claim to 22 Catholic high schools and numerous elementary schools, many of which boast some of the highest test scores in the state. This does not include the myriad of Catholic schools in other areas of Louisiana as well. Parochial education around the country is a proud tradition for families of all denominations with generations of lineage attending the same school. Religious schools should not be looked at as a separatist act that divides this country, but as a joyous celebration of the many freedoms we enjoy as Americans. It is in this advanced religious learning that Americans can exercise their freedoms to choose what religion they want to practice. Abolishing parochial schools in America is to take away two of the founding principles of this country. Going to a parochial school — or in many cases not going to a parochial school — is one of the most American decisions that we as citizens can make.

MABRY, MABRY NOT KATE MABRY Columnist Long gone are the days of the knuckleknocking nuns, and yet, many students in Louisiana — regardless of their traditions or values — have attended a Catholic school at some point in their lives. The conversation on religious-specific schools was renewed when President Barack Obama spoke in Northern Ireland last week about the religious division between Catholics and Protestants. While many religious publications twisted Obama’s words, his underlying message of tolerance transported me back to my time at Catholic schools. So where does division come to play in the equation at home? The economic division arose when families with money were able to escape the failing public schools, which led them straight into the havens of private schools. During the 2009-2010 fiscal year, 61.5 percent of students in Jefferson Parish public schools graduated, according to Nola.com. While that percentage increased by 8.9 percent during the 2011-2012 school year, these improvements remain a stark contrast in comparison to the graduation rate — and college acceptance rate — at private schools, which are both estimated at nearly 100 percent. As the city’s middle class families — who were the backbone of the public school system — left the public schools, the schools lost community support as well as diversity as children attended various schools around the city as opposed to the singular local public school. Schools are often a common denominator in communities, but if residents do not support
the local school, much of that cohesion is lost. But when personally faced with an inadequate public school in my district, I chose to attend a private high school in 2004. As a non-Catholic, however, I learned that my choices were actually limited. The Crescent City’s secular private schools tend to be prohibitively expensive and are almost never an option for the average middle class family. So I had two options: return to the public school system or enroll in a Catholic school. Jesuit High School, a Catholic all-boys school, compiled an online list of the names and tuition costs of several prestigious private and Catholic high schools in the area. For the 2012-2013 year, the cost for tuition and fees at secular private schools included Isidore Newman at $20,808, Louise S. McGehee School at $18,930 and Metairie Park Country Day at $18,365. In comparison, Jesuit’s tuition totaled $7,700, which is similar to the cost of the area’s other Catholic high schools. But before you begin praising the Catholic schools, let me stop you there. In 2009, only 39 percent of residents within the Archdiocese of New Orleans were practicing Catholics, according to catholichierarchy.org. In the search for a valuable – yet affordable – education, many non-Catholic students in New Orleans are forced to surrender their values in order to receive proper schooling. I was one of those, and for five years, I sat through lectures that secretly made me uneasy. When learning about heresies, teachers often called on me to tell the class about my faith – which was then fervently denounced. However, the necessity of Catholic schools may soon be over. In 2010, the Times-Picayune reported that New Orleans Catholic schools received a 5 percent decrease in enrollment between 2007 and 2010, and a similar trend was being experienced throughout the nation, including the archdioceses of New York and Baltimore, Md. The introduction of magnet and charter schools may be one reason for the decrease in enrollment on a local level. In 2011, Newsweek ranked Orleans Parish’s Benjamin Franklin High School as the nation’s 27th best public high school. Additionally, Jefferson Parish’s Haynes Academy for Advanced Studies was ranked as the state’s second best and the nation’s 137th best public school, according to U.S. News and World Report. As adequate public schooling becomes available, non-Catholics — possibly even a substantial percentage of Catholics as well — will likely embrace these magnet and charter schools over the traditional Catholic schools. I applaud the headway these magnet schools have begun to make. And when the majority of children from the community attend the same school, it will bring racial, economic and religious diversity to the classroom.

Office that they’re going to allocate to the campuses — the LSU system campuses, and we don’t know what that distribution’s going to be yet,” Smith said. To balance out the expected cuts, annual fees for resident students will be raised by 10 percent and non-resident fees will be raised by 15 percent for the Fall 2013 semester. Smith said the building use fee, which is $48 per full-time student and covers acquisition, maintenance and operation of buildings on campus, will be a new fee introduced next semester. The 2012-13 year saw a midyear budget cut of roughly $3.5 million, which was alleviated largely by money from increased enrollment. Smith said they’re hoping enrollment will continue to increase to produce a similar situation if the University faces another midyear budget cut. He said savings will also come from tightening of scholarships and GRAD Act, which will result in savings of about $1 million. Smith also said the system hopes to raise University faculty and staff member’s pay. “One of the highest priorities is to try — since it’s been four years without a pay increase, they would like to do something for faculty and staff,” Smith said. As of right now, the LSU System is still waiting on the Board of Regents to finalize the cuts before any action can be taken.

page 15 He also said hot summers are typically more violent than cooler ones. Of the 342 homicides in the Baton Rouge area since 2008, 52 percent of them occurred during the five month span between May and September. LSU Police Department spokesman Capt. Cory Lalonde said during his law enforcement career he’s experienced the summer spike in crime at every stop in his career. But the University campus is an exception to this trend.
“During the summer we can implement proactive measures to deter crime,” Lalonde said. “With less people on campus, we get less calls, so we can patrol more actively instead of reacting to calls.”
