Terps running back arrested Wes Brown charged after July 3 police incident investigating Balt. shooting

By The Diamondback staff Terrapins football running back Wes Brown was arrested and charged with second-degree assault, theft less than $1,000 and unlawful interception of oral communications on July 3, according to University Police spokesman Sgt. Aaron Davis.

Brown was wanted for questioning by Baltimore police in a nonfatal shooting, according to a probable cause statement filed in Prince George’s County District Court. In the statement, Baltimore police said Brown’s vehicle was involved in the shooting.

Brown, 19, agreed to meet police in College Park on July 3 but later said he would not go

betting on the farm Married university alumni couple gives quarter-million dollars to Campus Farm for renovation

By Erin Serpico For The Diamondback The Iagers spent many days together on the Campus Farm as students, and now, more than 50 years later, they feel it’s their turn to give back and preserve their cherished farm.

C h a r l i e I a g e r, a 1 9 6 5 alumnus, and his wife, Judy Iager, a 1966 alumna, recently contributed $250,000 to the Campus Farm revitalization effort, the farm’s first renovation in nearly 50 years. The targeted $6 million project,

led by the agricultural college, will replace a parking area in the farm’s center with a covered livestock pen for student and visitor observation and add classroom and viewing areas in a teaching pavilion.

“We wanted to make sure that we’d give all the help we can to keep agriculture on campus,” Judy Iager said.

Both from Howard County, the couple attended high school together, dated and eventually carried that relationship into their years at this university.

Charlie Iager, then a dairy

production major, often spent his time roaming the farmland and managing the cattle. Judy Iager, then a business education major and former city girl, acquired a love for farm animals after moving to Howard County, and she enjoyed spending time on the Campus Farm with her future husband.

In the late ’40s and early ’50s, Charlie Iager knew he wanted to attend this university after being involved with the state’s 4-H program, visiting the campus with his father for boxing matches in Ritchie

Coliseum and attending the Orange Bowl. The then-larger Campus Farm was just a familiar added bonus.

“I figured I was going to the University of Maryland because it was where I felt at home and comfortable,” he said.

Charlie Iager kept busy as a member of the Alpha Gamma Rho fraternity, the dairy judging team and the livestock judging team. But on the weekends, he went home See farm, Page 2

Researchers at this university have developed a rechargeable battery made from wood as a more environmentally friendly way to power an entire power plant with a device smaller than a fingernail.

The engineering and materials science team created the nano-sized battery, which is about 1,000 times thinner than a piece of paper, out of wood, tin and sodium, according to materials science doctoral candidate

Jiayu Wan, who co-authored the study. Although other sodium-ion batteries exist, Wan said this one is particularly successful because of its performance and long life.

The battery works for 400 cycles, or 2,000 hours of usage time. However, it was not developed for the at-home consumer — rather, Wan said the battery will be used for machinery that requires large amounts of energy, such as power plants, factories and generators.

Wan hopes these wooden batteries can give large-scale machines a greener power source.

Typical rechargeable batteries are often composed of lithium. However, sodium is more abundant and ecofriendly than lithium, Wan said, making the battery cheaper overall and safer for the planet.

Although the battery is safer for the environment compared to traditional lithium-ion batteries, Wan wrote in an email that lithium is stronger than sodium and lithium-ion batteries can last longer and go through more charges, which are challenges the research

BROWN From PAGE 1 After police told Brown he did not need a parent to accompany him, he allegedly shoved a detective and ran.

Police then chased Brown through the South Hill area.

Officers arrested him near the staircase between Commons 3 and Montgomery Hall.

Brown also faces charges for theft and unlawful interception of oral communications, Davis said.

Prior to his meeting with police, Brown allegedly approached two students in front of the 7-Eleven on Knox Road and asked to borrow a cell phone to record police so they couldn’t frame him, according to the statement.

After arresting Brown, one detective found the phone with a voice recorder app activated, according to the statement.

During questioning, Brown reportedly admitted to fleeing, shoving the officer and recording his interaction with police, according to the report. He faces a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison for second-degree assault, 18 months for theft less than $1,000 and five years for unlawful interception of oral communications.

The athletic department also released a statement about Brown’s arrest on July 5.

“We are extremely concerned that one of our student-athletes, Wes Brown, was arrested Wednesday evening,” the statement read.

“This is a matter that we take very seriously. We have been in contact with the local authorities and will continue to cooperate throughout the entire process.

“The University of Maryland has suspended Brown, and he is not permitted to participate in any athleticrelated activities. Since this is a pending investigation, we will refrain from having any further comment at this time.”

Court records indicate Brown was released from police custody July 5 on bail, pending a July 31 preliminary hearing in Prince George’s County.

Brown was a former fours ta r re c r u i t o u t o f G o o d Counsel, where he was a teammate of wide receiver Stefon Di g gs. He ran ke d s e c o n d o n t h e Te r p s i n rushing as a freshman with 382 yards on 90 attempts. He scored two touchdowns in eight games, as injuries forced him to miss the season’s final four games.

Brown sat out spring practice following surgery to repair a torn labrum in his shoulder, but he was still listed on the Terps’ depth chart as a co-starter at running back along with Brandon Ross and Albert Reid. newsumdbk@gmail.com

get the battery working,” Wan said.

The electricity is produced when sodium ions create a chemical reaction with the tin.

The battery’s process works much like the way trees store nutrients from soil in their wood fibers, Wan said. Ions in the battery are transferred from electrolytes to the wood, where they are stored.

The environmentally friendly possibilities spawned by the battery have excited scientists and students alike, among them sophomore chemical engineering major Anthony Vu. “It’s hard to find lithium, especially compared to sodium, which is everywhere, even in our bodies,” he said. “Not to mention current batteries are really toxic.”

While the battery has impressed many, some said it has a long way to go in terms of power and number of charges, if the battery is to stack up against its lithium counterparts.

“I’m not sure if this could compete with a lithium-ion battery, since lithium can store more energy,”said Sam Van Horn, a sophomore mechanical engineering major.

“I’m not positive if it could dominate the market, but it definitely has the potential.”

team plans to address as they continue to improve their sodium battery. An average lithium-ion battery lasts about 500 cycles, Wan said.

The team still plans to work on enhancing the battery’s capacity, Wan said; while the current battery can be recharged about 400 times, the researchers hope to nearly double its life, increasing the number of charges to 700 or 800.

The yellow pine used in the battery improves its longevity when compared to other sodium-based batteries, Wan said, which means fewer wasted batteries. As the battery is charged repeatedly, the soft wood becomes increasingly wrinkled. These wrinkles release stress on the wood and allow sodium ions to more easily move through the material, he said.

The idea for the battery emerged when the researchers attempted to find a soft material that could withstand a lot of charges. They knew wood was softer than metal and its pores would allow for a freer flow of sodium ions.

farm From PAGE 1 to wake up early and work on his family’s farm, Maple Lawn Farms. This farm was created in 1839 on 108 acres of land, and it has been passed down from generation to generation, eventually accumulating 1,000 acres.

It wasn’t always easy for a farm boy to leave the campus every weekend to go home and work, Judy Iager said, so keeping up with schoolwork and activities was sometimes a challenge. But there was always an outlet for relaxation and comfort.

“He felt comfortable down there because of the animals,” she said. Even in times of stress, coming to the farm was a “home away from home type of thing.”

With the Iagers’ contribution, along with the

plans of Cheng-i Wei, agricultural college dean, to match the amount donated for the project, the revitalization efforts are well underway, said Crystal Caldwell, the farm’s coordinator. The project has raised about 18 percent of its target of $6 million.

Plans to revitalize the farm started in 2011, after the animal and avian sciences department finished its annual external review, said Brian Magness, director and development officer for the agricultural college.

The Campus Farm was the “jewel of the department,” Cadwell said, adding that renovations would “make the farm a better place for teaching.”

Magness called the farm a touchstone for the Iagers, who hope to see continued success for the agricultural program.

The couple started a scholarship fund in 2007 for students in the animal and avian sciences department. Their long-term

family involvement in the state’s 4-H program has also led to Charlie Iager’s appointment as chairman of the program’s board of directors and the start of its Maryland 4-H scholarship.

Reminiscing about the days when the university was solely an agricultural college and their frequent participation in Ag Day — now known as Maryland Day — the Iagers recalled their excitement at exploring and participating in university events. And with the growing enrollment of agriculture students, the couple sees an even greater need to help preserve and improve the program they always believed in.

“Our hope is that [the agriculture program] will keep on going and it will be a nice home away from home for the students,” Judy Iager said.

“Things will just keep getting better and better.” newsumdbk@gmail.com

domain From PAGE 1 “If your average consumer understands the cost with the lifestyle the Domain presents, then they agree with the price,” said Domain community director Tommy Skordas. He said he has not seen price to be a deterrent.

So far, undergraduate students, graduate students, professors and people commuting to other jobs in Baltimore or Washington have signed leases, Kovalsky said.

Kovalsky said Domain’s selling point is its commitment to service,and that’s why the units are well worth the money.

“We are always hoping to get more units filled, but right now we are feeling confident in the number we have full,” said Nick Duckwall, development sales director. “We realize it is hard for people to make

a commitment with the construction still going on.”

But senior behavioral and community health major Jamie Lee said most college students don’t have that kind of money.

“My parents pay $801 a month for me to live in Commons, and there is no way they would ever pay over $1,000, no matter what amenities are available,” Lee said.

Students might choose Domain if its prices were similar to other housing options, he said.

Other nearby options offer luxury at lower prices, such as Mazza Grandmarc, which charges rent starting at $995 per person for a two-bedroom apartment.

While utilities are included in these prices, the Domain website doesn’t specify whether utilities are included there.

“I love living at the Varsity; it is like living in a hotel,” said Bari Turkheimer, a sophomore psychology major. “Its location is

3

better than the Domain’s because it is on Route 1, but it’s also just a bridge away from classes.”

And the price is as much a deterrent for graduate students as it is for undergraduates, said doctoral candidate Bonnie Brett.

“I don’t think any graduate student that doesn’t have another outside source of money could afford to live at the Domain,” Brett said. She said she and her colleagues live in offcampus houses to save money.

Construction won’t completely finish until March 2014, but Duckwall said he is already optimistic about Domain’s next few move-in dates, scheduled for July 30 and August 24.

“We look to be a staple in the community in terms of fitting in with the university, fitting in with the city of College Park,” Skordas said. newsumdbk@gmail.com

wine From PAGE 1 The regions that will not suffer as severe an impact are in Germany and Washington, because they are at more northern latitudes, Chile and Argentina, because they are at higher altitudes, and New Zealand, because it is surrounded by water.

Oregon’s Willamette Valley is becoming warmer and drier due to climate change, said Harry Peterson-Nedry, founder of Chehalem Wines, which is located in the valley.

“It’s all positive in the short term,” said Peterson-Nedry, who serves on the board of directors of the Willamette Valley Wineries Association.

In the Willamette Valley, the vineyards are on hillsides, Peterson-Nedry said.

“Six hundred feet is no longer a maximum elevation where you can plant grapes and have them ripen,” he said.

Hillside areas previously too cool for planting might now be just the right temperature, he said.

“Research over the last 20 to 30 years has gotten to the point where we can start providing climate services,” Busalacchi said.

He added his research on the effect of climate change o n v i t i c u l t u re i s a go o d example of what climate services are about.

“It’s not just sufficient for the climate scientist to tell the end users what they want, but you need to engage in a dialogue,” he said. “You really want to be developing products and services that would be useful and needed by the end user. Now, we’re providing guidance as to

optimal growing conditions in the future.”

Busalacchi is also the director of Vino Veritas, LLC, a company that provides wine education, wine program consulting and weather and climate forecasting services to vineyards around the world.

Though he does not currently use climate services for his vineyards, Peterson-Nedry said he is interested in looking into what they could offer. “ I t h i n k t h a t’s a go o d consulting relationship that people need,” he said. “It is necessary to adapt in all areas.

“There’sdefinitelyanawareness [of climate change],” PetersonNedry said. “The next step should be adopting some general principles and recommendations for how to address and adapt to climate change.” newsumdbk@gmail.com

Millennials want To smoke or not to smoke? their privacy, too STAFF EDITORIAL

CAROLINE CARLSON A week ago, on Independence Day, protesters in cities across the United States rallied against what they saw as the federal government’s infringement of Fourth Amendment rights.

Holding signs saying, “Read my lips, not my emails,” among others, protesters demonstrated how serious government surveillance really is — using a holiday meant to celebrate America to criticize its government.

With the recent revelation of the National Security Agency’s tracking of Internet traffic and phone communications, it’s not extremely far-fetched to associate our government’s actions with Orwellian tactics.

Although some may fear the agency’s actions will allow the U.S. to become a surveillance state, I wouldn’t hesitate to say that we’ve already become one.

Even outside of the NSA and its PRISM program — a data tool that collects intelligence passed through American servers — some of the FBI’s most powerful tools include national security letters that force private companies to disclose personal data (along with gag orders to prevent recipients of these disclosure letters from making the disclosures publicly known). FBI stingray devices have been utilized to provide the federal government specific locations of your phone, while some federal officials gain judicial permission to use these devices by disguising them as older, less intrusive technologies.

Stances of conservatives and liberals on surveillance seem very mixed. Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) and Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) both seem to be on the pro-surveillance bandwagon, while people like Glenn Beck and Bill Maher have spoken against it.

However, the one demographic that is growing in opposition has been Generation Y. Only 43 percent of 18- to 29-year-olds — the lowest of any age group — approved of the government’s collection of telephone and Internet data, while 55 percent disapproved, according to a June Pew Research Center

poll. Surveillance programs have even hurt President Obama’s approval rating, which plummeted 17 percent among voters 30 years old or younger — likely in light of the NSA scandal.

A growing base of young voters opposed to intense data collection and surveillance shows not only that we value our privacy, but also that the tide is turning when it comes to civil liberties — and young people may be the ultimate bastion of voters preventing further surveillance in the U.S. and protecting the Fourth Amendment.

The argument that this extent of government intrusion into your personal life is necessary for national security interests is not just overstated but untrue.

For instance, the NSA only needs to determine, with at least 51 percent likelihood, that target data running through American servers is “foreign” in order to investigate it. Given that a huge amount of foreign traffic runs through Facebook and Google on a daily basis, chances are they may be looking into American data.

Young voters should care more because they will be hit the hardest.

Since we’re a generation raised on technology, we’re obviously more likely to use services like Facebook and Gmail than our parents are. This means our government can not only collect simple information about us, but also metadata — the information generated from your use of technology, like Facebook check-ins, Google searches and email subjects. These data don’t just provide content, but ultimately provide context into who you are as a person.

Although polls show young people are the most likely demographic to oppose the NSA’s actions, they’re also the least likely to be aware of them.

Even though many young people are aware of the intrusive tactics our government has used, I’d encourage more to take control of their futures by paying attention to what’s going on around them. After all, we may be the last ones standing in the fight for privacy.

I

n most of the United States, at the age of 18, each individual is afforded the right to buy and smoke tobacco products. Although smoking has been established as an unhealthy, harmful habit, it is legal. Yet institutions such as the University System of Maryland, including this university, have worked to implement restrictions on smokers in efforts to establish a healthier environment on state campuses.

After mandating that university system institutions have a smoking ban in place by July 1, it seems officials are hoping to see less smoking around the campus. But this hope may not come to fruition.

The policy prohibits lit tobacco products — including cigarettes, cigars, hookahs and pipes — as well as smoking in universityowned vehicles and the sale of tobacco products on the campus.

At this university, only four locations on the campus will be designated for smokers: the south side of Ellicott Hall, the south side of McKeldin Library, near the entrance to the Stadium Drive parking garage and to the left of the main Comcast Center south side staircase.

The idea itself is promising. If a rule could lead college students to quit smoking, decreasing the potential health risks the habit poses, that would be great. But the problem is that a rule alone won’t change things, and there may not be much else officials can do to stop students from choosing to smoke. Smokers may just have to face the consequences of the habit, and the university’s governing

bodies won’t be able to do anything to stop it with their current plans.

See, when news came out about the systemwide ban, smokers and nonsmokers alike were worried a b o u t wh o wo u l d e n fo rce t h e ban. For now, we can conclusively say nobody will be enforcing the smoking ban.

Linda Clement, vice president for student affairs, said officials from this university do not have plans to implement any fines or penalties for students smoking outside of the designated areas — it will be up to individual community members to step up to the task.

OUR VIEW

Officials responsible for the smoking ban policies need to decide how to enforce the new rules, or risk losing control of the situation altogether.

Looking at the past, what are the chances of that kind of enforcement actually happening? Slim. Just after the University Senate passed a policy that mandated smokers stand 25 feet from any campus building, it became clear nobody was enforcing this rule. It’s unclear how exactly the administration expects a ban that covers most of the campus, save four specific spots, to be sustained.

Even senate members don’t want to get police involved and hand tickets to every student, because they know too many students would get tickets. They know from

past experience that students just aren’t going to listen. Yet without any police or actual enforcement of the policy, how can they expect it to be properly implemented?

It seems officials have set themselves up with a double-edged sword. On the one hand, they could continue with the current plan, which is to trust individuals to enforce the rule, thus rendering it irrelevant because many will choose not to listen to it. On the other hand, they could get the police involved in enforcing the ban. Yet even several senate committee members admitted the difficulty of figuring out how far the university can go in regulating the lives of students and staff.

Amanda Long, the University Health Center’s coordinator of campus alcohol programs, said this past spring that the policy helps student health by cutting down nonsmokers’ exposure to secondhand smoke. So if officials were so worried about secondhand smoke, why would they designate these smoking areas? Couldn’t that policy, in fact, create more secondhand smoke for nonsmokers who live close to those areas or have to walk through them to get to class or sporting events?

The bottom line is that the senate and university President Wallace Loh need to figure out exactly what their plan is. If they want the rules to take effect, they need to take steps to enforce them. If this is not the case, and officials don’t agree with the system mandate, that is a whole different conversation. But right now, the rules are muddled and the people making them should commit one way or the other.

GUEST COLUMN

An irreplaceable program

W

e are disappointed and shocked

by Anand Gupta’s harsh and inaccurate column “The frivolous telecom program” in the June 27 issue of The Diamondback on the master’s program in telecommunications offered in the engineering school’s electrical and computer engineering department.

We are disappointed the author has falsely characterized the bright and hardworking graduate students in this program as “substandard” while basing his opinions on second- and third-hand sources. Historically, The Diamondback has published sound, respectable journalism, so we were very surprised to see this column published.

Let us provide Gupta and The Diamondback’s readership with a brief history of the program’s evolution. The telecom program has been operating for more than 15 years and has grown in the past two years due to demand for highly educated and specially trained graduate students in the areas of networking, cybersecurity and other important fields. Gupta should speak to his friends in these fields to understand the dynamics of this economic sector.

Regarding the salaries of telecom program graduates, Gupta dismissively values them at just more than the median of what our undergraduates earn. However, the fact is that each year, our telecom students are consistently recruited by well-known, respected companies such as Cisco, Qualcomm, Hughes Network Systems and many others. When our faculty and staff visited Hughes Network Systems a few weeks ago, the executives we met made laudatory comments regarding the high quality of our telecom graduates. We believe the opinions of executives at such companies should be valued more than hearsay shared by a few doctoral students Gupta spoke with before forming his opinion of a program he has not enrolled in or experienced.

During the past two years, we have been dedicated to making improve-

ments to the telecom program. We hired a new full-time instructor, and efforts are underway to recruit another fulltime instructor in the area of networks for the coming academic year. Our plans to expand the program include adding specializations in areas such as radio frequency processing and embedded computing. We have renovated telecom facilities, and plans are underway for renovating a networking lab.

As we make these improvements, our program is becoming even more elite and will progressively grow based on expected enrollment, which will increase our size and reputation. Our students’ success in the industry has prompted major telecommunications companies such as Juniper Networks to invite this university’s telecom program to be part of their Academic Alliance program.

The students in our telecom program come from all over the world. They make an extraordinary effort and commitment in coming to the United States, working hard to better themselves and their families and contributing to the greatness of our country. We are very proud of them, as you should be, because our country was built on the driven energies of immigrants from all over the world.

We appreciate your concern that we should have quality programs on the campus. Our telecom staff is pleased to speak with anyone regarding concerns about or interest in this program. We also insist that our high-quality university should be served by thoughtful, objective columns in this newspaper that are based on factual evidence, not hearsay. Your column, sad to say, does not meet this standard that we expect from The Diamondback.

Summer: A time to reflect ROBERT COBB It’s summer, did ya hear? Everyone’s down by the pool. Or chilling at the beach, or going on hikes or finding a shady spot to read. Everyone’s got a job or internship, but somehow we take it less seriously in the heat than during the “real” part of the year. This might be the only time of the year when we actually have free time.

There is a big difference between urgency and importance — one we often confuse in the hustle and bustle between September and May. When we face deadlines, everything feels like a priority, because it all has to be done immediately. These things are urgent, but they are not necessarily important.

Missing the deadline on a paper or inadequately preparing for a test, though immediately painful to your course grade, are not important. Deciding on a major and a career, becoming passionate about a subject or a cause (or lots of them), and building lasting relationships with people and organizations are things that matter,

in a looking-back-at-your-life way.

In the summer, your groups and clubs aren’t meeting. If you have classes, it’s usually only one at a time.

You have space to breathe, to relax.

Those urgent-but-not-important responsibilities mostly vanish. You have time to work on the importantbut-not-urgent things, such as relationships, values and identity.

So, who are you?

People change. The more conscious we are of who we are and how we are changing, the more we can control the process.

Of course, there are obstacles. In the summertime, it’s mostly the attractive distractions we’ve looked forward to during the school year.

For some people, thinking about the future invites massive anxiety or unpleasant feelings, and others might not know enough about the world or their own interests to make any concrete plans.

Taking time to think deeply and productively about yourself and your future is good. How do you like to spend your time? What sorts of people help you feel productive and positive and happy about yourself?

What kind of life do you want to live?

There are all kinds of tools to aid introspection. Reading, walking,

journaling, drawing, cooking, even cheesy personality tests — everyone finds his or her own tools to effectively frame reflection.

You don’t need to buy into my platitudes, but I’d encourage you not to listen to those who tell you not to think or cave to your own inclinations to shut down mental activity for a few months. Honestly, there could be a real difference in your life experience from taking an hour out of the six you were going to spend on Netflix to consider who you are.

Becoming yourself is fun.

So amid all the swimming and tanning and partying you absolutely ought to do this summer, make some time to think about the things that are important yet never urgent. Let your zoned-out mind wander around the questions without deadlines, questions about values and identity.

No one is going to grade you for the person you become or force you to be better than you are.

September through May, our vision is clouded by work and stress — let’s put on our July introspectacles and figure us out.

HOROSCOPE STELLA WILDER

he coming week is likely to see many individuals shifting gears rather dramatically about issues that meant one thing yesterday and something else entirely now. This will have the anticipated result that enthusiasm, energy, inspiration and vision will all be on the increase, providing the potential for greater reward from almost every activity. This can be an exciting week at the workplace, where some find that it is virtually impossible to stop the wheels from turning. New accomplishments can lead to a great deal of recognition and personal reward almost immediately. A sense of personal power is on the rise for almost everyone at this time.

Special care should be taken this week whenever one chooses to repeat a past success -- mere repetition may be impossible at this time, and carelessness may result when one tries too quickly to do what has been done a great many times before. One must try to avoid that kind of behavior this week!

CANCER (June 21-July 7) -- You may find that something that was only “ho-hum” to you in the recent past is now virtually irresistible. (July 8-July 22) -- It may be nearly impossible to reverse certain trends, so why not jump on the bandwagon and enjoy yourself?

LEO (July 23-Aug. 7) -- That which looked good to you last week is almost certain to look even better to you now.

An old comrade comes to you with an answer to your prayers. (Aug. 8-Aug. 22) -- You’re likely to feel a great deal of desire for something or someone that you’ve hardly noticed in the past.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 7) -- You may have cause to count your money again and again -- and to ask yourself where it may have gone. It’s time to economize. (Sept. 8-Sept. 22) -- Your methods may come under some scrutiny from someone who has you in his sights.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 7) -- Your

life and that of someone who shares with you certain ambitions are likely to be indivisible throughout much of the week. (Oct. 8-Oct. 22) -- You may have no choice but to follow a loved one into a situation that you know will be dangerous -- but rewarding.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 7) -- You may find yourself waiting for the last pieces of a puzzle to fall into place. Be patient; you can’t force the issue! (Nov. 8-Nov. 21) -- You will have to plant yourself firmly on the ground even as your dreams lift you skyward.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 7) -- You are tempted to get in touch with someone who you feel can lift you out of your current rut, but there are dangers involved. (Dec. 8-Dec. 21) -- You’re ready to take a chance, but what you see before you gives you pause. You can be brave!

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 6) -- The first time you’re likely to get it right, but the second time may take some doing as you adjust to changing circumstances. (Jan. 7-Jan. 19) -- You’ll hear from someone who may well change everything with the simplest of statements.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 3) -- You won’t have to spend a great deal of time explaining yourself as others are quick to grasp what you’re reaching for. (Feb. 4-Feb. 18) -- You may “see the light” at some point this week, giving rise to suspicions that you’ve

cheated somehow -- but you haven’t.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 5) -- You’ll have cause to praise someone who only recently was in your doghouse.

He or she understands how to get on your good side, surely! (March 6-March 20) -- Personal expression is likely to take a far more creative, even artistic, form.

ARIES (March 21-April 4) -- You may have trouble convincing a teammate that you’re all on the right track, and making intended progress. Use facts and figures. (April 5-April 19) -Now is the time for you to join forces with someone who seems to know how to make headway despite certain obstacles.

TAURUS (April 20-May 5) -- You have a surprise up your sleeve for a loved one who is returning home -literally or figuratively. Things are on an upswing. (May 6-May 20) -- Your opinions are widely sought at this time, but you’ll want to wait to share them until you are asked -- usually.

GEMINI (May 21-June 6) -- There’s no need for you to wait any longer to claim what is yours by rights. You can be stronger by week’s end, and ready for something new. (June 7-June 20) -You know that someone has his or her eye on you, so you may want to ramp it up in order to impress.

ESSAY | NASHVILLE: NOT JUST FOR COUNTRY FANS

THE NEW NASHVILLE

The capital of the country music industry is rapidly moving into the 21st century and building a new, young and hip fanbase

By Beena Raghavendran Senior staff writer Last week, when I donned my chestnut cowboy boots and stepped onto the streets of Nashville, Tenn., I was a bit wary of what I’d see.

Disclaimer: I don’t like country music. I’ve never liked it, even after giving it a fair shot in high school.

I decided I didn’t like the twang, the artists or the way the music seemed to describe the Midwest, where I grew up, as “America’s heartland,” or a trouble-free life full of beer and sunsets.

Yet I was pleasantly surprised with what I found in Nashville.

It seemed different from what country culture warned me about. Sure, there were honkytonks, neon signs and thousands in cowboy boots crowding the streets in a celebration of “America’s birthday.” But the majority of Nashville — what I saw, at least — has a young vibe to it, full of hipster-y cafes, restaurants and momand-pop eateries. Not exactly “Achy Breaky Heart” material.

It turns out Nashville has been booming in publicity and popularity over the years. Young people can’t get enough of the place

nicknamed “Nashvegas.” Older people are filled with pride to call it home. GQ redubbed it “Nowville.”

Rolling Stone in 2011 named it Best Music Scene. TripAdvisor, based on spikes in traveler reviews, proclaimed Nashville the top U.S. destination on the rise in 2012.

And with the spike in acclaim, it’s no surprise Music City is seeing a jump in popularity.

A 2012 study from The NPD Group, which specializes in market information, showed that about 28 percent of America ranked country music as its favorite genre — about 1 percent higher than those who ranked classic rock as their top genre. About 19 percent of those surveyed cited Top 40 as their favorite genre, and about 16 percent chose alternative or indie music.

On broadcast radio, the numbers of longtime and new country music listeners surpass those for news and talk radio stations, according to the Pew Research Center’s Project for Excellence in Journalism 2012 State of the News Media report.

The dominance of country music was undoubtedly helped by the Grammy nominations show held there in December — its first

event outside Los Angeles — and the strong performance of ABC’s show Nashville, which features a fictional plot of country stars’ rivalries. Opponents of today’s country bash Taylor Swift’s poppy beats and long for the purity of Johnny Cash. Supporters, however, laud the appeal of country music to both young and old as a result of its universal themes.

Sitting among thousands on the edge of the Cumberland River at the Music City July 4th: Let Freedom Sing! concert after a day of heavy rain, I felt the pride of country enthusiasts around me as they sang along to headliner The Band Perry’s song “If I Die Young,” and the band’s rendition of “Amazing Grace.” The trip to Nashville didn’t convert me to a worshipper of country nation.

I won’t be heading to a Garth Brooks or Kenny Chesney concert any time soon.

But something clicked; I understood a piece of the country puzzle I hadn’t before. Country music sings about a love for home.

It embodies both patriotism and a passion for life.

So I, too, sang along. diversionsdbk@gmail.com

NOTEBOOK From PAGE 8 wasn’t his only lengthy streak of the season either. From May 12 to June 21, the Dunkirk native didn’t allow a single run in 19.2 scoreless innings.

Cecil’s dominance on the mound has translated to career bests in practically every pitching category. As of Wednesday, Cecil had a 1.81 ERA and a 0.87 WHIP, and batters were hitting only .157 against, well below his career averages of 4.52, 1.37 and .266, respectively. He also has a record of 3-0 with five holds.

Cecil has been used primarily as a left-handed setup man for the Blue Jays, making his AllStar selection notable because it’s difficult for mid-game relievers to receive such honors.

Yet only five months ago, Cecil wasn’t sure if he would make the Blue Jays opening day roster. After the 2010 season, when he won a careerhigh 15 games, Cecil’s velocity began to drop below 90 mph.

That dip in velocity led to two years of mediocrity and multiple stints in the minors.

Looking for some way to jump-start his once promising career, Cecil trained with weighted balls, following

a program teammate Steve Delabar used to return to baseball after two years away.

The shoulder-strengthening regimen appears to have worked: The former Terp closer is again averaging more than 90 mph on his fastball, according to Brooksbaseball.net.

Cecil joins Milton and outfielder Charlie Keller as the only former Terps to make an All-Star team. Keller made the game five times in the 1940s for the New York Yankees and is the lone Terp to participate in multiple Mid-Summer Classics.

For Cecil, the focus now is building on a performance that seemed unlikely entering 2013.

“I’m sure glad to be representing the Blue Jays and our bullpen down in New York City,” Cecil told MLB.com’s Gregor Chisholm after his selection. “Hopefully I can represent them well.”

REED RETURNS Former Terps left-hander Jimmy Reed pitched in Maryland for the first time as a professional last night in Aberdeen, one week after earning his first professional win for the State College Spikes, Single-A short-season affiliate of the St. Louis Cardinals.

TORONTO BLUE JAYS LEFT-HANDER BRETT CECIL is the first former Terp to be named to the MLB All-Star Game since left-hander Eric Milton in 2001. photo courtesy of toronto blue jays Reed earned the loss in State College’s 1-2 loss at the Aberdeen Ironbirds last night, throwing four innings, allowing two runs on five hits and zero walks while striking out three.

A key starter for the Terps for the second half of the 2012 season and all of 2013, Reed earned his first professional win July 3, as State College beat Williamsport, 3-1. Reed entered the game in relief in the fifth inning and threw four shutout innings, allowing three hits and striking out five.

On the season, Reed has

made four appearances (two starts) and given up just two earned runs over 13 innings.

The left-hander has struck out 12 batters and walked only one.

The Cardinals drafted Reed in the sixth round of last month’s MLB First-Year Player Draft with the 185th overall pick. He was the Terps’ ace in 2013, going 6-4 with a 2.33 ERA in 13 starts. He struck out 74 in 88.2 innings and pitched two complete games, including a five-hit shutout at Duke on April 26. sportsdbk@gmail.com

played in only six games.

He ended preseason camp listed as the starter, but a hamstring injury sidelined him through the Terps’ first three games. He played the next games at West Virginia and against Wake Forest before missing the three contests after that.

In the final four games of the season, though, Ross emerged. He rushed for 337 yards on 60 carries, including a 21-carry, 141-yard performance in the season finale at North Carolina.

“He’s a pretty good back, so I’m just working on going out there and competing with him,” Reid said after the spring game. “We [are] still teammates, so we push each other in practice. We want to get each other better every practice.”

Reid’s season followed a vastly different trajectory.

The starter in the season opener against William & Mary, Reid appeared in 11 of the Terps’ 12 games. But after rushing 12 times for 29 yards in the 7-6 win over the Tribe, Reid never topped either of those marks. His

I n t h e s p r i n g ga m e , though, Reid gashed the second-team defense up the middle while also bouncing outside for significant gains.

“Al’s a hard worker,” Ross said in April. “He’s always working hard. When Al sees the holes and he hits it, he’s a dangerous runner. Albert’s getting better every single day. He’s been running hard every single day. That’s [really something] I can take from him.”

Redshirt freshman Joe Riddle also projects to figure into the Terps’ running game. He ran for a touchdown in one of the Terps’ spring scrimmages and rushed for 13 yards on three carries in the spring game.

The Terps were last in the ACC in total offense last year, 10th in rushing offense and they turned in a dismal minus-2-yard outing on 29 carries in a win at Virginia last season. Ross said the Terps’ running game “could be something special,” but for the Terps to reach the potential he sees, they’ll have to forge ahead without Brown.

“I’m definitely seeing flashes of greatness,” Ross said after the 13-13 spring game tie. “Our O-line, especially depth, everyone’s maturing. A lot of us is coming back. We’re young. We’re maturing. The key is to just keep getting better.” sportsdbk@gmail.com

Ex-Terp Cecil an All-Star Reed wins his first professional game for State College

By Phillip Suitts and Daniel Gallen Senior staff writers Eight years after Brett Cecil arrived on this university’s campus, the former Terrapins left-hander received one of the highest honors in professional baseball.

Cecil became only the third former Terp — and the first in more than a decade — to make the Major League Baseball All-Star Game when the rosters were announced Saturday.

Cecil, a 27-year-old reliever for the Toronto Blue Jays, wasn’t even enrolled at DeMatha Catholic High School when former Terps lefthander Eric Milton played in the 2001 game.

After a career as a Terps reliever, Cecil transitioned into a starting role with the Blue Jays, but he garnered the first accolade of his MLB career in his first full season in his old role, a pinnacle in a career that includes winning a team-high 15 games in 2010 and failing to make the opening day roster last season.

Cecil has already achieved some career highlights this year, including setting a Blue Jays record by retiring 40 straight batters without allowing a hit, a streak that coincided with the Blue Jays’ 11 straight wins. That See NOTEBOOK, Page 7

Rushing load falls on Ross’, Reid’s shoulders after strong spring practice, Brown’s suspension

By Daniel Gallen Senior staff writer Wes Brown exited spring practice listed as a co-starter at running back with Brandon Ross and Albert Reid on the Terrapins football team’s depth chart. A three-way battle was expected through late summer, with each having the potential to win the battle or still see significant playing time even if they didn’t win the job.

But Brown’s suspension from this university after his July 3 arrest thins the race to two. And for a sometimes-maligned running game in 2012, Ross and Reid both bring the potential to thrive in the Terps offense, as each showed promising flashes through last fall and this spring.

Both Ross and Reid starred in the spring game while Brown sat out as he rehabbed after surgery to repair a torn labrum and the ground game dominated. Ross, working with the first-team offense against the first-team defense, rushed for 122 yards — 100 in the first half — on 19 carries.

His longest carry was 19 yards against a defense that coach Randy Edsall limited in the game.

Reid, on the second-team offense against the second-team defense, totaled 115 of his 135 yards in the second half and carried the ball 23 times for the game, including for a long of 39 yards.

“It was good to see them,” Edsall said April 12. “That’s what we saw from Brandon and Albert all spring long in terms of how they run

the ball. The one thing we have to be able to do is run the ball effectively because when we do that, that’ll open up the passing game. …

They ran the way they’ve been running pretty much all spring.”

With Brown and his 382 yards in eight games seemingly removed from the Terps offense, the running game again falls to the duo that shone in the spring game. But despite their spring performances, both Ross and Reid have areas to shore up.

Ross, a redshirt sophomore, led the Terps in yards (390), yards per carry (4.6), yards per game (65) and long (71) last season, but he See RUSHING, Page 7
