thelantern Ohio Congressional Archives ‘close to capacity’

sports

Lauren haLLoW Senior Lantern reporter hallow.1@osu.edu As the largest university in the country, it makes sense Ohio State would have a lot of books. But it might have too many. The Lantern reported last week that the university depositories are running out of room, leading workers to recycle old books or throw them away. The Ohio Congressional Archives, a part of the Library Book Depository and University Archives Building on West Campus, is running out of room as well. “If you know someone with $8 million, let me

know,” said archivist Jeff Thomas, alluding to the cost of a new addition to the archives. Spread throughout roughly three aisles — 32-feettall by 170-feet-long — are the congressional papers from four former Ohio lawmakers: ex-Ambassador Milton Wolf, former Reps. Ralph Regula and Deborah Pryce, and former Sen. John Glenn. Thomas said although the Ohio Congressional Archives is looking for new material, it is close to full capacity. There is room for maybe “the next three or four years,” he said, before the collection runs out of space. The collection began when Glenn was getting ready to leave office in the late 1990s. When someone who worked in the National Archives at the Library of Congress recommended he donate his

Senate papers to OSU, Glenn contacted E. Gordon Gee, who was in his first run as president of OSU and was “all for it.” “We gave (OSU) a massive amount of stuff,” Glenn said in a telephone interview with The Lantern. “When I was growing up as a young teenager in the Great Depression, you just didn’t throw things away. It became a lifelong habit.” Glenn’s materials, which Thomas said are filed away in about 600 boxes, were donated in 1999 and became the John Glenn Collection. That was also the year the John Glenn Institute, now known as the John Glenn School of Public Affairs, was created. OSU eventually decided to expand the collection to create the Ohio Congressional Archives, soliciting

Sign-spinners from all over the globe will take their talent to Los Angeles from Feb. 14 to 20 for a signspinning competition, and an Ohio State student-spinner might join them. The spinners, often seen on street corners and outside businesses, get paid to attract as many eyes as possible to the human-sized, arrow-shaped banner advertisements they toss in the air. Their stunts are often accompanied by breakdance-style improvisation. Matt Gardner, a third-year in food and science technology, said he and his fellow sign-spinners constantly compete to come up with the best tricks. He works for the campus advertising branch of AArrow Ads, a San Diego-based company that trains spinners in “guerilla marketing,” according to the company’s website. If he is nominated as the best trickster in the campus group, he gets to compete in LA. Known as a “spinstructor,” Gardner has worked for the

Students: Union rooms tough to book juSTin conLeY Lantern reporter conley.325@osu.edu Less than seven months after the grand opening of the new Ohio Union, student organizations have complained that it can take months to reserve many of the building’s rooms. Officials disagree and say some students just don’t understand the reservation process. Many of the complaints are directed toward Union staff members who field reservation requests. “It takes them like eight days to fill a request,” said Eric Richards, a third-year in mechanical engineering and a leader of Engineers without Borders. “If we want to get an e-mail out three days before a meeting to make sure that people can plan ahead for it, we’ve got to request (a room) like two weeks in advance.” He said his organization often needs to schedule meetings on the ﬂy, since it doesn’t always have time to in advance. Jenn Cartmille, president of the Public Relations Student Society of America at OSU, said she has waited even longer than Richards. “They don’t get back to you to confirm the room until three weeks prior to the event, which causes problems because we are counting on it,” she said. Cartmille said she requested a space in the Union in August for an event held Tuesday. She received the confirmation in mid-October. Officials dispute allegations of long waits for confirmation, but Union Director Tracy Stuck said the five full-time staff members who handle event requests have their hands full, with about 58 requests a day. “There’s a lot of events coming in and out of this space,” she said. “Typically they’ve told me the longest (confirmations have taken) is a week.” Stuck said most students can start booking rooms for meetings a quarter in advance, and big events are often booked a year or more in advance. If students request space online, they are essentially stepping into a digital line behind other

If their request is granted, students receive a confirmation letter within a week and are required to drop off or fax the confirmation, Stuck said. Students can also request rooms at the front desk of the Union, where they have the benefit of knowing if another student organization is trying to book the same room at the same time, she added.

Some complaints probably come from students who don’t understand the reservation process and that they have to return a signed copy of the confirmation letter, Stuck said. But other complaints might stem from the fact that students simply have less space on campus

campus OSU to let other schools test Facebook Deals jamie morgan Lantern reporter morgan.693@osu.edu Ohio State was not included in the first released version of Facebook Deals, an application introduced Nov. 3 that allows local businesses and organizations to offer deals to their visitors. In fact, only a handful of universities have made a push to be a part of the online application. Accessed through a mobile phone, users check into a location with a yellow icon on Facebook Places, claim the corresponding deal and show the screen to a cashier to redeem it, according to Facebook’s website. Four types of discounts can be offered at this time: individual deals, friend deals for a group, loyalty deals for frequent guests and charity deals ensuring the organization donates to a cause upon checking in. According to Facebook’s blog introducing the Deals application, mobile users might have access to other offers in upcoming weeks, including two entrees for the price of one from Chipotle, $1 donated to Ronald McDonald House Charities at McDonald’s and Conservation International at Starbucks, and discounts at several clothing stores. The application, however, is available only to a limited number of Facebook Places in the U.S. Andy Lempart, strategic communications manager for Cal Athletics, University of California’s

athletic department, said only three universities are included because of their ticketing company’s ties to Facebook. The universities are the University of California at Berkeley, the University of Nebraska and Texas Tech University. Lempart said the schools’ ticketing company, Paciolan, started making a push to ramp up its services in August. When the ticket company offered UC Berkeley the opportunity to engage in Facebook Deals, Cal Athletics decided to get involved. “We didn’t want to do anything based around tickets because we could always do a ticket giveaway,” he said. “We really wanted to do something interactive for fans and something no one has ever done before.” Students at UC Berkeley will have the opportunity to claim a spot in the human tunnel formed at football games. “The cool thing about the Facebook Deals platform is that no money is exchanged, and it’s pretty dynamic, too,” he said. “We are just really excited to get this promotion off the ground and engage students.” He said a test drive this weekend will allow the first 50 people to check in at the merchandise stand to receive two free tickets to the men’s basketball game Tuesday. Ethan Rowley, Nebraska Athletics’ assistant director of Athletic Marketing, said Facebook chose schools that offered the most intriguing deals. “We knew Facebook was looking for something that would be interesting and a little bit different

because they have so many retail things,” he said. “We wanted to come up with something that would add to the fan football experience.” Instead of providing free tickets, he said the first 250 fans to check in on the university’s Facebook after halftime at this Saturday’s football game can bring one guest to meet Tommie Frazier, a Huskers quarterback from the 1990s, and receive a free slice of pizza and drink. According to the Texas Tech Athletics website, the first 100 people to check in on the Places application at its football game Saturday received two free tickets to the Nov. 20 game and a coach Tommy Tuberville poster. OSU Undergraduate Student Government President Micah Kamrass said that although he is interested in offering OSU students similar perks, he hopes to evaluate their effectiveness at other universities first. “I just recently became aware of it and want to look to see if it’s helpful at these other universities,” Kamrass said. “It is definitely something I hope we would examine, and I think we should look into anything that would be helpful to students, but right now it is too early to know any specifics.” Ted Hattemer, director of New Media for University Marketing Communications, agreed that the university is open to participation. “We are not opposed to it at all, but we were just unaware of it until now,” he said. Chelsea Castle, a second-year in journalism and co-president of the Social Media Society, said she

thinks OSU’s participation will encourage student involvement on campus. “I think the university definitely should use it because any promotion through social media can be beneficial,” Castle said. “I’m pretty sure almost all 50,000-some OSU students are on Facebook, and it would be really good to help students be more aware of how to use it to their own advantage and also good to promote the university’s spirit and overall activity.” She said she thinks OSU could promote business in the dining services or provide an academic incentive, such as discounts on textbooks purchased early in the quarter. Hattemer said he could imagine food services and businesses in the Union engaging students with the application. Although Foursquare, a similar social media website allowing businesses to offer specials to users, contacted OSU about involvement, Hattemer said it is not a top priority now because it is not catching on with students. “I think they would use this more than Foursquare because in comparison, there just aren’t enough people on there on campus to put in all the effort,” Hattemer said. “Everyone is on Facebook, so the potential for it to work is much greater just because of the sheer numbers.”

Two scientists researching new branch in Tree of Life jami jurich Senior Lantern reporter jurich.4@osu.edu The Tree of Life is about to sprout a new branch. Two Ohio State scientists will lead research for the next branch in the National Science Foundation’s Assembling the Tree of Life project. Daniel Janies, an associate professor in the College of Medicine, and Bill Ausich, a professor of earth sciences, will lead a team of researchers from 11 institutions in studying the echinoderms branch of the Tree of Life, Ausich said. OSU received nearly $1 million in federal money for the project. The branch will be just one part of the larger Assembling the Tree of Life project. Timothy Collins, a program director in the systematic biology and biodiversity inventories cluster at the

National Science Foundation, said the project is important because it studies how different life-forms are related. “I think on one level, you might argue that there is nothing that is more fundamental about life than how it’s related,” Collins said. The project provides important insight because it links all animal, plant and microbial life, Bill Ausich Janies said. “The idea is to connect all those in a tree-like structure, like a family tree,” Janies said. The echinoderms, which are Janies and Ausich’s focus, include five living classes of animals

— starfish, sea urchins, brittle stars, sea cucumbers and crinoids, commonly known as sea lilies. Ausich said the branch also includes 16 extinct classes of echinoderms. Janies and Ausich said the echinoderms branch is especially important because it links the vertebrates, creatures with spinal columns, with the invertebrates, life-forms Daniel J anies without spinal columns. “Today it is essential to understand all aspects of biology within a group’s evolutionary history,” Ausich said in an e-mail. “This work will provide this important perspective for echinoderms and for the link between us and invertebrates.”

Janies, Ausich and other scientists hope their work will show important links between the echinoderms branch and the tree as a whole. They also said this branch could offer biomedical applications in the future. “Echinoderms are amazing creatures that have remarkable abilities to regenerate lost limbs, have unique types of ligamentary tissues, and have a uniquely constructed skeleton,” Ausich said. “The former two items are of interest to the medical field.” Although his project is important to the Tree of Life, Janies said getting money from the National Science Foundation was not easy. “It took a couple of tries,” Janies said. Despite the initial setbacks, the foundation eventually selected the proposal to receive money. The project, which will cost almost $3 million, will

In “Ohio Staters alumni celebrate 75 years,” published Monday, Nov. 8, The Lantern reported that the ceremony recognized the group’s first female president, Maureen Malone Dargusch, who was elected in 1973. Maureen Malone Dargusch (now Maureen Malone Ingram) was the first woman in Ohio Staters and joined in 1973. Jenni Leking (now Jenni Roer) was the first president, elected in 1976. The Lantern reported that the group recognized Brud Cleaveland, the oldest living member of Ohio Staters. However, Cleaveland is not the oldest living Stater. He was the oldest Stater attending the reunion.

other former Congress members from Ohio to donate their materials as well. In 2005, Wolf, former ambassador to Austria and Glenn’s campaign-finance director in his 1984 presidential campaign, donated his papers. Pryce, former representative to Ohio’s 15th District, and Regula, former representative of the 16th District, followed suit, donating their materials in 2008. The donations include everything from the politicians’ period in office, including their voting record, speeches, press releases and documents from legislation they tried to pass. The extraordinary amount of material is a lot to take care of, Thomas said. The dimly lit 1,200 cubicfoot rooms the collections are located in, called “modules,” have no piping system — therefore no moisture — and must be kept at 60 degrees Fahrenheit year-round. Thomas said it costs about $80,000 a year to run the Congressional Archives. Former lawmakers have the option to restrict their material for a certain number of years for privacy reasons, Thomas said, and have no obligation to donate their papers. “They can throw them away, if they so desire,” Thomas said. “I don’t really think for the most part that happens … but that’s totally possible, and it’s their right.” Thomas said most of Congress realizes the importance of donating their legislative material,

especially after Congress passed a joint resolution in 2008 strongly encouraging its members to pass on papers to a book depository after they leave office. Thomas said officials have “had conversations” with other former members of the Ohio Legislature, including former Rep. David Hobson and former Sen. Mike DeWine (recently voted Ohio’s new attorney general), but plans fell through. Hobson donated his materials to his alma mater, Wright State University, and DeWine donated his papers to his alma mater, Miami University. Thomas said Sen. George V. Voinovich, who will be succeeded next year by Rob Portman, plans to donate his material to Ohio University, his alma mater, which houses the Voinovich School of Leadership and Public Affairs. Calls to Rep. Mary Jo Kilroy, who succeeded Pryce but lost to Steve Stivers on Nov. 2, were not returned. For now, Thomas and Glenn encourage researchers to use the material for their studies. Anyone can use the archives, but Thomas said most requests come from people involved in political science. Thomas estimated that archive officials get about 90 requests per year through walk-ins, calls and e-mails. Because of the amount of material, Thomas encourages those interested in research to call ahead. Glenn said he thinks the material will go to good use. “If the researchers can help … current public officials in how they set up their own offices, then (the archives are) for a good purpose,” Glenn said. Wolf passed away in 2005, and Regula and Pryce could not be reached for comment.

“They have put together a project that has been chosen as ‘outstanding science,’” Collins said. Janies and Ausich are in charge of coordinating the other 13 scientists involved in the project, Janies said. In addition to their research, Janies and Ausich wrote the first draft of the proposal and will also be involved in outreach, Ausich said. But their main focus will be research. They will study fossils that are more than 500 million years old, as well as living species. Janies is interested in starfish and the

evolution of the larvae. Ausich will look at the evolution of the crinoids. Despite their specializations, Janies and Ausich will focus on the big picture. “We’re looking to find out how these five living classes are related,” Janies said, “and find out how they hook to the broader tree of life.”

Once the new Union opened, however, the university reduced the buildings available for reservations from all instructional buildings on campus to five. According to the Union website, the only classrooms that can be reserved are in the Central Classrooms Building and Lazenby, Pomerene, Hitchcock and Independence halls. Despite complaints from some students, not everyone has trouble reserving space in the Union. “Now that I understand who to contact in the Union, it is very easy to book rooms,”

said Laura Christobek, chief of staff for the Undergraduate Student Government. “I would suggest making an appointment with the event coordinators or walking into the administrative offices in the Union to work through any problems.” To avoid confusion and frustration, start early, Christobek said. “It is difficult to find spaces if you don’t plan ahead,” she said.

Olaniyi Gaiusbayode, a student at Bradford School in the Northeast Side and another member of the campus team, started with AArrow Ads close to the same time as Gardner. “Every time at practice, he shows me a couple new tricks and helps me get comfortable as a sign-spinner,” Gaiusbayode said. Gardner was originally interested in the job as a way to make money while in school, Gardner said. The starting salary is $10 an hour and can double overtime, he said. To keep track of the spinning

moves, Gardner and the other spinners consult the “Tricktionary,” a book of moves. Some included in the book are the basic 360-degree spin or the behind-the-back spin, he said. The signs are lined with leather to make spinning safer, but bruises, especially at the beginning, are inevitable, Gardner said, pointing to evidence on his forearm. There is an insurance policy for each spinner to deal with all types of “spin-juries.” Woods said the goal behind the spinning is to interact with passersby and make a positive impression. “Point, smile and wave,” are basic steps, he added. Gardner’s experiences with AArrow Ads could help him start his own business in the future,

he said. Likewise, his experience as a team leader and manager helped him learn how to cut out the weakest link and make the team stronger. “This is good experience no matter what I decide to do in the future,” he said.

student voice Honor them now, save questions for later On a holiday not marked by overwhelming consumerism, honor our veterans and stave off criticism of the military LANTERN Columnist

Generally speaking, I am not a huge fan of holidays. I find that most of them are just ways to get Americans to spend money on things that we don’t really need. Halloween, Independence Day, St. Patrick’s Day, Valentine’s Day, Sweetest Day, even Thanksgiving and Christmas and Easter to some extent, are all just ways to separate me from my hard-earned cash. Granted, all those holidays have roots in history and tradition DOROTHY POWELL (except Sweetest Day, the point of powell.447@osu.edu which I’m still not clear on after four years in Ohio), and I’m not knocking that. But it seems that America is so much more focused on the tangible, consumerist aspects of these holidays than on their history or religious significance. There is one holiday that has managed to escape this quagmire. Veterans Day, which — for those of you living under a rock — is tomorrow, comes with few companies clamoring for you to buy their junk. In fact, most people will pass the holiday by, grateful to have an extra day to sleep in or get work done, or to be able to go out and get drunk. There are no fancy ads, no special colors, no candy. Just one quiet day off of work or school, for most people. Although I love that Veterans Day has no commercial ties, it saddens me that it passes so quietly, without much fanfare. If any holiday deserves fanfare, it’s Veterans Day. What other holiday (besides maybe Memorial Day — Veterans Day’s springtime cousin) is dedicated solely to remembering those who have fought to preserve the values that this country holds so dear? I understand that America’s military history is a somewhat touchy subject, especially the past couple decades of it. There are plenty of well-founded questions and doubts about whether all of our military actions have been honorable in the past. I think these are valid questions and I personally find myself asking them on a regular basis. But Veterans Day is not the day to get bogged down in deciding whether you agree with all of the wars and battles our country has gotten itself into. Veterans Day is not about the military. Veterans Day is about our veterans. In this country, in our generation, we are lucky enough not to have to serve in the armed forces. Those who serve do so willingly. Because of that, most of us do not feel the impact that military service has on both the members of the military and their families. For this, you should be grateful. You should be thankful that there are men and women who are willing to put their lives on hold for a few years, or for a lifetime, so that you don’t have to. These men and women put their lives on the line to better the world and protect our country. If that is not a noble goal, I’m not sure what is. This Veterans Day, take some time to think about all the good our veterans have done. From freeing prisoners in concentration camps after World War II, to aiding victims of the 2004 tsunami in the Indian Ocean, to building schools in Iraq, our service men and women have done worlds of good. That is not to say the military has been nothing but beneficial, but rather to remind you to look at the good our veterans have done. Friday morning you can question. Thursday, take one day to think of and thank our troops for all they have done for us. They deserve our thanks.

Banning Four Loko wouldn’t change a thing on campus LANTERN Columnist

It’s been called many names, but the ones that stick out are “blackout in a can” and “liquid cocaine.” The state of Michigan just banned it. Schools in New Jersey and Washington are eliminating it from their campuses. Northeastern University warned its students about the dangers of the drink after an 18-yearold freshman was found by the police, heavily intoxicated. Is Ohio the next state in line? Four Loko comes in an eerie and tantalizing neon-colored 23.5 ounce can. The biggest temptation is the price. It’s no secret that many college students like to get as drunk as possible on the least amount of money. Four Loko provides that service with a little extra punch. Police officers all over the country are becoming familiar

VANESSA SPATES spates.3@osu.edu with the symptoms and are on the lookout for people under its influence. I’m getting the feeling that people are forgetting that this is alcohol, not crystal meth. There have been statistics that connect higher crime rates to the beverage, which you could find

for any substance if you looked hard enough. People do stupid things when they’re under the influence of anything. We students aren’t stupid. We know that we shouldn’t mix caffeine and alcohol. Obviously we’re young so we believe we’re invincible. We know the dangerous effects of a “wide-awake drunk,” but it’s ultimately our own choice. Four Loko is nothing more than a scapegoat for the media and for law enforcement everywhere. They need a crusade, and this is it. Some states will ban the drink, like they’ve done with Everclear and absinthe, and other states won’t because it wouldn’t make that much of a difference. If the problem is underage kids getting their hands on it, that indicates an issue completely

unrelated to Four Loko. If the problem is the dangerous mix of caffeine, taurine, guarana and alcohol, then maybe Red Bull and alcoholic mixed drinks should get banned as well. My point is, people will find ways to get incredibly blackout drunk and stupid. Banning one drink won’t solve that problem. If states get rid of Four Loko, another drink just like it will pop up in its place in a couple years. Sparks came before it and Spykes before that. It’s a neverending cycle. I ask, what happened to freedom of drink? If you ban one alcoholic beverage, ban them all. Otherwise, leave them alone. Let people choose how they want to spend their evenings, whether it’s dancing on a bar or passed out on a toilet.

Being kind requires more than Midwestern niceties LANTERN Columnist

World Kindness Day is Saturday. I estimate that five other people knew that until now, and you became the sixth as you sit in class, reading this and hoping your professor does not show up so you can have two hours to finish homework that is due for the next class. What does one do for World Kindness Day? What is kindness? Many of us are caught up in that Midwest manner of being “nice,” not kind. Nice is an American idea overall and one that is overwhelmPATRICIA CUNNINGHAM ingly owned by us “fly-over” states. cunningham.212@osu.edu The question, “How are you?” does not exist in many other languages. One of my best gal pals from Korea says the custom was

difficult for her to adapt to when she came to study at Ohio State. In her language, people ask real questions, not questions that just pick at the surface and that people are not interested in at all. There is a chasm between being “nice” and actually being “kind.” Kindness is complex, it requires practice and it is selfless. Kindness means thinking of people and their feelings, even when they are not present. Kindness can simply be actions of civility, whether that behavior is to a friend or stranger. There is power and sensitivity to speaking truth when it is necessary to do so. Nice is not making fun of an outsider in your group. Kindness is finding events to invite that person to so they feel included. Kindness is sending a thank-you note or a thinking-of-you card. Nice is getting something off the registry that is about equal or less than the dinner you will get at someone’s wedding. The recent focus on bullying has many people talking about the need for us to “play nice in the sandbox” and “tolerate” each other. What poor word choice, I say. The bullies could certainly learn to be nicer, but everyone in the situation could learn to be kinder. Another kid

trying to be inclusive and supportive could have made a difference in bullying victims’ lives. Kindness is not easy but it can be so important. We have all experienced kindness — when a bad day or a terrible moment turns around because of someone’s thoughtfulness — the time a friend picks you up after you know you bombed an exam to enjoy margaritas at Mad Mex, reminding you there are still two more exams. And because of that, you stop someone from bashing a guy in your sociology class for smelling. When others encourage us, we are more likely to encourage or be kind to someone else. I encourage everyone to think about that this weekend and to come up with ways to reach out to others. As we practice being kind, we can change people’s lives. You can mature to a place in your life where you know when something is wrong and you are going to speak up about it regardless of backlash. Being kind over time develops character and perseverance. When there is an occasion for you to be kind, I hope you have the wherewithal to speak for someone else because at some point in your life, you are going to want someone to speak for you.

GO BUCKEYES!

SHOW YOUR PRIDE WITH THESE WINNING TITLES FROM TRIUMPH BOOKS

Horoscopes by Nancy Black and Stephanie Clements, ©2010 Tribune Media Services Inc. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY The balance of private to social time in your life changes this year. An older partner or associate has intense suggestions. Listen for the high priority items, and let others manage the rest. Remind them that it’s just a game. It’s more fun if you play.

VIRGO Aug. 23 – Sept. 22 Today is a 7 -- Your self-esteem lies in the balance while you wrestle with an associate’s question. The group needs to address the situation, to discover workable choices.

To get the advantage, check the day’s rating: 10 is the easiest day, 0 the most challenging.

LIBRA Sept. 23–Oct. 22 Today is a 6 -- Questions arise in your work that only you can answer. Don’t depend on others. Use your own imagination to cast light directly on the problem.

ARIES March 21 – April 19 Today is a 6 -- You could obsess over the details of your partner’s situation, or instead redirect that energy toward your own to-do list. This gets more accomplished. TAURUS April 20 – May 20 Today is a 7 -- Sticking to a practical plan presents problems. Others in the group just want to play. Bribe them if you must, to get the job done. Promise entertainment later. GEMINI May 21 – June 21 Today is a 7 -- You’re nearing the finish line. All the pieces are there before you, and all you need is to put them together and add a glamorous final touch. CANCER June 22 – July 22 Today is a 6 -- Someone in your household is overthinking today’s schedule. You may need to just get started before figuring out the finishing touches. LEO July 23 – Aug. 22 Today is a 6 -- Don’t let your impulsive ideas carry you off task. Instead, harness that imagination to make ordinary processes more fun. Best results show when you focus wit and energy.

SCORPIO Oct. 23 – Nov. 21 Today is a 6 -- Internal dialogue provides you a different point of logic. Harmony is the goal, and assertive energy is required to achieve it. Imagine freedom. SAGITTARIUS Nov. 22 – Dec. 21 Today is a 7 -- An older associate takes some of your work, so that you can spend time with family. Use the time to regroup and rethink a long-term decision. Change is good. CAPRICORN Dec. 22 – Jan. 19 Today is a 5 -- You may feel anxious about career goals. Pay attention to the mood. You discover that the worry isn’t yours. Help someone else to lighten it. AQUARIUS Jan. 20 – Feb. 18 Today is a 6 -- Thoughts race as you evaluate new data. You didn’t anticipate an important development that could change everything. Assess well before taking action. PISCES Feb. 19 – March 20 Today is a 6 -- You may recall a dream about something extremely old. Ancient objects or symbols may reflect the need to research and understand your roots.

Time off has not been advantageous for Ohio State in the past. The Buckeyes have dropped three of their last four contests following a bye week, but coach Jim Tressel said he thinks the week off could pay dividends this time around when OSU hosts Penn State on Saturday. “I thought we used our time

wisely,” Tressel said. “Hopefully we will be back on the ÿeld with a lot of enthusiasm and pep in our step. We did work out on Sunday for about an hour and guys seemed to be refreshed.” As the Buckeyes prepare for the home stretch of the season, Tressel said it’s also important to recover emotionally. “I think if there’s anything that you can accomplish during an open week, it’s perhaps to ÿll your emotional gas tank back up,” he said. “We’re going to need every ounce of emotion we can get as Penn State comes in.” Injury report Plagued by injury this season,

Joe Paterno has been roaming the sidelines as a member of the Penn State coaching staff for the past 61 seasons, 45 of which he has been head coach. This Saturday, Paterno leads his Nittany Lions into Ohio Stadium for an important Big Ten matchup with Ohio State. However, the game will be more signiÿcant than what the

upcoming

results mean for the Big Ten standings. Penn State enters the game just one week after Paterno recorded his 400th win as head coach. Last Saturday, PSU trailed Northwestern 21-0 in the ÿrst half. After scoring a late ÿrst-half touchdown to cut Northwestern’s lead to 21-7, PSU scored 28 points in the second half for a 35-21 victory. After the game, Paterno didn’t get an ice-cold Gatorade shower. Instead, teammates hoisted Paterno atop their

I love what I do. Not a day goes by that I’m not satisÿed with my career choice. Do I worry incessantly about my job prospects after graduation? Sure. Am I concerned that I might not make enough money to support a family one day? Absolutely. But at least I know I’ll be at peace with myself. I know I won’t be crunching numbers in an ofÿce cubicle or burying my nose in a law school library. Not only would I be miserable doing anything else, I wouldn’t come close to being even decent at anything but sports writing. I do it for the love of the game. When I become a full-time professional, I’ll be the same way. This is why I’ve always been more appreciative of college athletics than professional sports. Professional sports have become a marketing vacuum, sucking the life out of stadiums and turning what used to be thrilling sporting environments into colossal corporate coliseums. How depressing is it that NBA arenas have to elicit fans to chant “defense” or rely on a sideshow clown public-address announcer to ÿre up a crowd? The most important part of an NBA club might not be its All-Star shooting guard or legendary coach, but rather its marketing department. The pro sports experience doesn’t cut it. I’ve been to tons of OSU football games and tons of Bengals games. As far as exhilarating occasions go, it’s no contest. In professional sports, there’s FedEx Field, Nationwide Arena and the Staples Center. In the realm of collegiate athletics, stadiums have nicknames: The Pit, The Horseshoe and Death Valley. Everything that lacks in a professional sports environment, a college one has. Maybe it’s the presence of the school band. Maybe it’s the palpable tension in the air. Or maybe it’s the

sports Tressel from 6A

Paterno from 6A

Paterno passed ‘Bear’ Bryant for most wins in 2001 against OSU shoulders and held a ceremony celebrating his 400th victory. “It was a surprise. To be honest with you, I didn’t expect it,” Paterno said in his post-game press conference. “What can you say? I’ve been very, very fortunate. It was a great experience and a great evening for us.” Paterno is the only Football Bowl Subdivision (formerly Division I) coach to win 400 games. It is a record that might never be broken. “I don’t know if it’s possible. I mean, Joe is special in terms of his longevity, his persistence and the way he handles people, the way he handles the football team,” PSU assistant coach Dick Anderson said after the game. “They say records are made to be broken, right? But who knows? That’s a tough one.” On Oct. 27, 2001, Paterno became the all-time leader for coaching wins, surpassing former Alabama coach Paul “Bear” Bryant, with 324 wins, after PSU beat OSU 29-27 in Jim Tressel’s ÿrst season with the Buckeyes. Tressel was pleased Paterno won the 400th game against Northwestern last weekend instead of playing for the monumental victory this weekend against the Buckeyes. “I was the guy who let him beat ‘Bear’ Bryant. I sure wouldn’t want that double play,” Tressel said, jokingly, in his weekly press conference Tuesday. This week, PSU does not expect a letdown after Paterno’s landmark victory. After the Northwestern game, Paterno was already looking ahead to the OSU game. “We’ve got three more games. We’ve got a big one coming up this weekend (against Ohio State),” he said. “Now that the celebration is over, let’s go beat Ohio State.” PSU players hoped to carry the momentum of the special victory into the OSU game. “We are deÿnitely going to try to go to Columbus with the attitude we had the second half” of the Northwestern game, junior defensive tackle Devon Still said. “We are going to try to shock the world and beat Ohio State.” OSU will kick off its game against Penn State at 3:30 p.m. Saturday.

Ohio State is 26-4 in November games under Jim Tressel the banged-up Buckeyes got the chance to rest and heal during their break. After suffering a foot injury in the team’s lone loss at Wisconsin, captain Ross Homan has been making strides toward full health, Tressel said. “The key will be how does he do two days in a row to see if there’s any issues,” Tressel said. “But based upon after Sunday, I would say no doubt” he’ll be ready. Tressel said he expects both Homan and fellow linebacker Dorian Bell to play Saturday. Revived running games A key to each squad’s success of late has been a resurgence from the running back position. For the Buckeyes, junior Dan “Boom” Herron eclipsed the 100-yard mark on the ground for the ÿrst time in his OSU career against Minnesota on Oct. 30. “I think ‘Boom’ has raised us through his play,” Tressel said. “I think his play has been excellent, and if he’ll play like he did this last month and like he did last November, we have a chance this November because I think he is a difference-maker.” The Nittany Lions’ leading running back, Evan Royster, has regained form from his FirstTeam All-Big Ten selection a year ago. Achieving 100-yard performances in each of the last two games, Royster is now PSU’s all-time leading rusher, with 3,652 yards. “Evan Royster is a guy that now has hit it into gear,” Tressel said. “I think at the beginning of the year, he probably wasn’t himself, and as the year has gone on, just like most tough backs do, he got himself back to where he’d like to be.” Featuring two of the

conference’s elite rushers, dominance on the ground could be the key to victory on Saturday. “We’ve never been bashful about saying if you do well with the run game, you’ve got a chance to win,” Tressel said. Penn State quarterback duo The Nittany Lions will come to the Horseshoe with two quarterbacks who have thrown for at least 500 yards and ÿve touchdowns: redshirt sophomore Matt McGloin and freshman Rob Bolden. Tressel said the Buckeyes expect to see both under center. “They’ve now played two quarterbacks, and I would expect that we may, perhaps, see both of them. That’s the way we would prepare,” he said. Despite having to prepare for two signal-callers, Tressel said the duo’s styles don’t differ much. Mr. November The Buckeyes are 26-4 under Tressel in November, including 14-1 since 2005. Tressel said his team knows the importance of improvement in the last month of the season. “I think they’ve done a pretty good job of believing you have to keep working to get better, and if you keep working to get better, you probably will,” he said. “Then it gives you a chance in November.” Tressel said his players understand the importance of the team’s ÿnal three games. “When I saw these schedules about four or ÿve years ago when they said, ‘You’re going to have Penn State to start your November for a few years,’ I thought, ‘Oh,’” he said. “Not to mention you’re going to have Iowa and Michigan right after them, that’s going to put a challenge on any November record anyone would ever have. “I think our guys believe that this is a very important time.”

sports No. 2 Buckeyes open Big Ten Tournament against Wisconsin CHRIS BIDERMAN Lantern reporter biderman.1@osu.edu The No. 2-seeded Ohio State men’s soccer team begins its postseason run Thursday, taking on seventh-seeded Wisconsin in the Big Ten Tournament at Penn State. The Badgers (4-12-2, 1-4-1) earned the lowest seed in the tournament after not winning a conference game until they beat Penn State 1-0 on Saturday. The Buckeyes (10-5-2, 4-2-0) defeated Wisconsin on Oct. 31, 1-0. But coach John Bluem won’t underestimate Wisconsin and hopes his team has the same attitude heading into Thursday’s match. “It’s always tough when you play a team for the second time, especially when it’s this close,” Bluem said. “They probably felt pretty comfortable about what they were able to accomplish in the game. They will not be a pushover, for sure. For them, the Big Ten tournament is their only salvation.” OSU clinched the No. 2 seed in the tournament after downing the conference champion Indiana Hoosiers in an emotional game on senior day, 1-0. Senior Sam Scales said the team hopes to parlay Sunday’s performance into momentum for Thursday. “You always build off every game, and to have an emotional win like that on senior day is the best way to send us off to the tournament,” Scales said. “It’s the competitiveness the team brings — the spirit, the passion — it’s awesome. It’s a great group of guys.” The format of the tournament represents a new challenge for the contending teams. The championship game will be Sunday after games Thursday and Friday. The only exception is top-seeded Indiana, who has a bye in the ÿrst round. The Hoosiers play Friday against the winner of the game between No. 4 Penn State and No. 5 Northwestern. “That’s going to be hard. Some of our players who have been a little nicked and injured are returning to health, so we have a full complement of players, especially defensively. We’ll give it our best shot. It’s going to be a hard road,” Bluem said. If OSU had lost Sunday, it would have garnered the No. 3 seed — meaning they would have played Michigan State to open the tournament. Bluem said the Spartans would have been tough as well, but the team just wanted the best seed possible. The game against Wisconsin kicks off at 12:30 p.m. Thursday. If OSU prevails, it will take on the winner of the game between No. 3 Michigan and No. 6 Michigan State at 1 p.m. Friday.

Game from 6A

College sports emphasize a sense of belonging that professional sports do not cheerleaders. It’s different in the best possible way. Too often, professional athletes play for self rather than soul. One is more inclined to hear, “Throw me the damn ball” instead of marveling at a player’s Rudy-esque grit. This isn’t to say professional athletes don’t try, don’t have pride and simply don’t care just because they’re paid. In most cases, that’s ° at-out wrong. But the college athlete is a special type of person. Balancing textbooks, playbooks and dealing with reporters’ notebooks week in and week out isn’t an easy task. There are times when I feel completely overwhelmed just by my writing endeavors. I can’t imagine what it’s like for a physically demanding prospect tossed into the hat. Perhaps the purest way to etch the difference is a simple human emotion: a sense of belonging. College athletics give you a sense of pride. They give us alma maters, both in song and on a resume. There’s a sense of innocence. The overwhelming majority of college athletes won’t go pro in the sports they compete in. I’m sure the scholarship money is nice. But so many play just for the thrill of competition. They do it for the love of the game.

The Wexner Center for the Arts officially kicked off its “Six Solos” exhibition Tuesday. The exhibit displays the work of six international artists and their signature media. “One of our chief objectives is to present the most radical, the most inventive and the most awe of-the-moment contemporary art in the world to the campus community,” said Christopher Bedford, chief curator of exhibitions. The individual exhibitions went on display Tuesday at the Wexner Center and will stay until Feb. 13. Five installations will be featured inside the Wexner, as well as one outside the building. Artists were given their own separate spaces for their exhibits. Tim Fulton, media coordinator for the Wexner Center, said the installations are not connected by a common theme in any way.

‘Jersey Boys’ coming to Columbus danielle hartman Assistant arts editor hartman.271@osu.edu “Jersey Boys,” a Broadway musical, will stop at the Ohio Theatre next summer for three weeks as a part of a national tour. But theater enthusiasts will have to wait nearly two seasons to see the play, which features 1960s rock ‘n’ roll group The Four Seasons. The Tony Award-winning, documentary-style musical will stop in Columbus Aug. 17 to Sept. 4. Its stay is expected to generate $4.2 million in ticket sales said Bill Conner, president of the Columbus Association for the Performing Arts. “We are very, very proud to host this stellar production,” Conner said during the musical’s Columbus launch party Monday night. “It helps make Columbus a little bigger.” Tickets don’t go on sale until March 24, but two of the show’s stars were in Columbus Monday to discuss the musical. “You can’t say that (‘Jersey Boys’) is a little bit better than the other shows I’ve been in,” said Joseph Leo Bwarie, who plays the role of Four Season’s Frankie Valli. “It’s not a little bit better — it’s like a whole different universe. It’s the best thing I’ve ever been in; I don’t know if I’ll ever be in anything better.” Bwarie, who started his acting career at age 8 on NBC’s “Highway to Heaven,” has also

Book Club suggests… “Full Dark, No Stars” by Stephen King

Stephen King is back with a new book, this time in the form of four short stories. “Full Dark, No Stars,” continues King’s theme of gruesome fiction. The book is filled with murder, rape, affairs and a deal with the devil. And as usual, King doesn’t hold back on the excruciating and bloody details. In one story, titled “1922,” a Nebraska farmer is outraged when his wife proposes they sell the family farm and move to the city. The farmer is so upset with the idea that he murders his wife to prevent her from selling the farm. He hides the massacre well, but

Different media makes each exhibit unique The artists cover a broad range of media in their pieces, along with a wide range of material, such as diode lights, stainless steel and glass. Artist Erwin Redl’s work, “Fetch,” features 100 LED sticks. “Fetch” is featured outside the Wexner Center, where students and faculty will be able to view the installation on their walks through the building’s “grid.” “The light display is supposed to serve as a beacon to summon the city of Columbus and the student body to the Wexner Center,” Bedford said. If anyone has eaten at the Wexner’s new cafe, Taste of Belgium, then they’ve seen Megan Geckler’s “Spread the ashes of the colors,” in which bright, multi-colored flagging tape strips are secured to the walls and hanging from the ceiling. Boston-based artist Tobias Putrih, in collaboration with MOS (an architecture group led by Michael Meredith and Hilary Sample), created a sculpture out of steel and aluminum to act as a wedge between film and its viewers. Visitors to “Majestic” can consume the hybrid piece in three ways: as a sculpture, video or both. Mexican-American artist Gustavo Gudoy filled an entire trapezoidshaped room with a plywood structure integrated with fluorescent light bulbs. Godoy will allow visitors to climb onto and participate in his all-white piece, “Fast-formal Object: Flayed White,” by appointment. “We don’t want it to be a free-for-all, although in a certain way I think that’s the artist’s dream and intention, but we do need to police the interactivity just a little bit more to make it safe for the public,” Bedford said. For British painter Katy Moran, this will be the first time her work is presented individually in an American museum. Sculptor Joel Morrison uses an inflated latex glove to depict scale against a massive stainless steel rat trap. “Six Solos” is part of the Wexner Center’s 21st anniversary celebration.

Broadway musical

has won four Tonys and one Grammy played roles in “Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement” and “Valentine’s Day.” “The show I was in before this one was ‘Lion King,’” said John Gardiner, an actor who plays 15 roles in the play. “I remember being onstage for the opening of (the ‘Lion King’) and thinking, ‘Wow, nothing could match the electricity of that crowd.’ But then I got in ‘Jersey Boys.’” The musical has won four Tony Awards, was named the Best New Musical by London’s Laurence Olivier Awards and has won a Grammy Award for Best Show Album. It premiered on Broadway in 2005 and began its first national tour in 2006. Dino Tripodis, a DJ on Columbus’ 94.7 FM, emceed the event and talked extensively with Bwarie about his role.

the events that stem from his wife’s death ruin the farm he killed to save. King, who is better known for producing hefty novels, also released the collection of short stories, “Just After Sunset,” which was published in 2008. “Full Dark, No Stars,” is a continuation of his short and grotesque stories.

Bwarie said he attended “Frankie Camp,” a workshop in New York where prospective “Jersey Boys” actors practice singing Valli’s signature high notes. “My voice hurts so much at the end of the night,” Bwarie said. He sings 27 of the 34 songs featured in the show. “Jersey Boys’” visit to Columbus will be the second Ohio trip the cast has made. Bwarie and Gardiner preformed in Cincinnati in 2008 — the loudest crowd they have experienced on the tour, they said. Gardiner, who attended the University of Cincinnati, challenged Columbus to rival Cincinnati’s energy. Bwarie said Ohioans should have plenty to cheer about. “Ohio pops up in the musical quite a bit because (The Four Seasons) played there a lot,” he said. Conner said a total of 60,000 tickets will be released for “Jersey Boys’” three-week stay in Columbus. The musical is now running in Philadelphia.

btw New ‘Call of Duty’ title improves on previous formula christiAn PeregrinA Lantern reporter peregrina.1@osu.edu The “Call of Duty” series is known by gamers to continually raise the bar for the first-person shooting genre. After the portrayal of D-Day on the beaches of Normandy in “Call of Duty 2” and the momentous multiplayer mode of “Call of Duty: Modern Warfare,” “Call of Duty: Black Ops” has done it again. “Black Ops” is the seventh installment in the war genre published by Activision but the third developed by Treyarch, the creators of “Call of Duty 3” and “Call of Duty: World at War.” “Black Ops” is not a true sequel to “Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2,” but the developers kept the core formula while making plenty of ambitious changes. Players resume the role of Alex Mason, an operative for the CIA. The story begins with Mason strapped to a chair in an interrogation room. The campaign manages to cover a lengthy

timeline because of Mason’s flashbacks, from an assassination attempt on Fidel Castro during the Bay of Pigs Invasion in 1961 to intelligence-gathering in Vietnam in 1968 and beyond. Throughout the story, there are missions where other gamers play as characters to help tell Mason’s tale from different perspectives. There is not a dull moment in the campaign. The player is constantly engaged in danger behind enemy lines. From a rooftop romp in the heart of Hong Kong to a prison break motorcycle getaway in Russia, players will be entertained. The mission scenarios are packed with surprises that parallel the twists in the plot. Dialogue is plentiful and the characters are surprisingly deep. As opposed to simply being briefed before and after missions, exchanges between characters mid-mission keep the story interesting, all while something is exploding or collapsing in the background. Considering that the storyline is abundantly embellished, encounters with real-life characters

Overall:

The online multiplayer mode is why this game is so popular. The leveling aspect of the “Modern Warfare” series remains intact, but a currency system has been added to purchase accessories, clothes and weapons. This time around, Treyarch has emphasized its focus on socialization and customization in the multiplayer mode — and it has done a good job spicing it up. Player emblems are now fully customizable, and there are a slew of additions to customization — face paint and colored weapon reticules, to name a few. The “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” approach could have been used when developing “Black Ops” for sales purposes, but the developers went out of their comfort zone to create a memorable video game. The thousands of players exchanging live rounds online solidify that testament.

Israel and the United States Is Israel an asset or a burden to our country? The United States is without question Israel’s most important ally. Also, without question, Israel is the staunchest and most reliable friend of the United States. But there are some who believe and vigorously advocate that Israel is a burden to the United States and that, were it not for Israel, peace would prevail in the Middle East.

btw lantern cD reviews Kid Cudi can’t beat hype “man on the moon ii” Kid cudi

ZAchAriAh JOnes Senior Lantern reporter jones.2992@osu.edu Cleveland’s Kid Cudi did not live up to the hype that surrounded his sophomore album “Man on the Moon II: The Legend of Mr. Rager.” It comes off like more of a recovering drug-addict’s sob story than a legend of any kind. In fact, the featured artists on the album overshadow Cudi. The guests include Kanye West, Chip Tha Ripper and Mary J. Blige. The album does take a more introspective look at Cudi’s life than many of the misogynistic and money-hungry hip-hop artists of today, but it is more appropriately described by Cudi as a “clusterf--- of darkness and evil” during the album’s first track, “Scott Mescudi vs. The World,” which features Cee-Lo Green. Cudi pleaded guilty to possession of cocaine in June and has since admitted to having a problem with the drug, which he used in the past to get through interviews and performances. He said recently that he has stopped using the drug, however, this album seems to suggest that he might have created better music under the influence. The first official single from the album, “Erase Me,” is a cheesy confessional about missing a girl. The song attempts

to match the mood of Cudi’s earlier work, such as “Pursuit of Happiness,” but comes off like a crappy pop-rock song with Kanye’s verse as the sole redeeming quality. Cudi has never been the conventional rapper, often utilizing spacey beats and intriguing guitar riffs, but this album seems to be more of an emo-rocker’s confessional than a banger hip-hop album. Kanye and Chip spit the best rhymes on the album, while Cudi utters lines such as “I am the maniac, I am the ghoul, I’m in the shadows in the corner of my room,” in “MANIAC,” which is unimpressive at best. The production of the album remains solid as is the case with much of Cudi’s work, featuring bright spots such as the beats on songs like “Marijuana” and “The End.” Ultimately, the constant vulnerability of Cudi makes the album as a whole seem like more of a plea for pity than any sort of hot new hip-hop.

Cee-Lo hits his hi point “lady Killer” cee-lo green

ryAn BOOK Arts editor book.15@osu.edu It goes without saying that Gnarls Barkley vocalist Cee-Lo Green knows how to keep things interesting, based on that group alone. Therefore, it’s not a surprise that Green’s new solo album, “Lady Killer,” is not a run-of-the-mill soul album. Aside from Green’s vocals, the album is about as musically Motown as any album out there. Green is backed by a near-orchestra, as was the case in much of ‘70s soul music. String arrangements, saxophones and accompanying vocals add to the mood. Again, it’s Green who separates the old from the new. Green’s voice would have made him a soul star during its heyday, but his mind is rooted in the present. His mindset is obvious in the first single off the album, the hit “F--- You!” The title explains the attitude aimed at a former crush. The hook, which features the title repeated several times, wouldn’t be a hit if it was postured as a hip-hop song. The background vocals, echoing humorous lines like “ain’t that some s---,” take the

obscene lyrics and transplant them in the ‘70s. Green is less obscene during the rest of the album, and his humor is less direct, but the musician still jests. The “Lady Killer” theme that opens and closes the record plays off a James Bond theme, featuring Green discussing his status as a “lady killer” followed by a dramatic movietheme arrangement. Green adds subtle humor within the lyrics, such as his line, “I want you to generally and sincerely want me too” in the song “I Want You.” Green rounds off the album with a fun cover of Band of Horse’s “No One’s Gonna Love You,” one of the few songs that rides off the album’s soul train tracks. Green said that on his last album, he was “the soul machine,” but he is far from a robot. He’s a new breed.

Jones gets modern remix “Q: soul Bossa nostra” Quincy Jones

ryAn BOOK Arts editor book.15@osu.edu Quincy Jones is a name lost on much of the college-aged population. It’s an irony considering his considerable influence on many of today’s most popular music acts. Those he influenced have not forgotten, however, and joined with the 77-year-old composer and musician to create a tribute album to his work. “Q: Soul Bossa Nostra” (a reference to Jones’ 1962 album “Soul Bossa Nova”) features popular modern artists performing classic Jones tracks with a more modern feel. The first single is a remake of Jones’ “Strawberry Letter 23” performed by R&B star Akon. Although the instrumentation for the track is largely new, featuring an updated programmed drum beat and other modern programming tricks, Jones is still present playing the piano. Jones contributes to every track on the record. The song features a bass line that underhandedly hails to the song’s origins. The remakes differ in their degrees of divergence from the original tracks. “Betcha Wouldn’t Hurt Me” featuring Mary J. Blige and “You Put a Move on My Heart” featuring Jennifer Hudson don’t strive too far from the rudiments that Jones built his career on. The covers aren’t

the same as the songs they’re based on, but they aren’t exactly updated. The most fun songs on the album are those that are total overhauls of the originals. Listening to Ludacris handle “Soul Bossa Nostra” and Snoop Dogg take on “Get The Funk Out Of My Face” make the listener smile. The album appropriately peaks on its last track, a multi-rapper interpretation of the “Sanford and Sons” theme song. T.I., B.o.B and others turn the previously instrumental television theme into a hip-hop party. The hip-hop adaptations make for the best listens, but some of the less remixed tracks on the album are less interesting in comparison to Jones’ original works. Either way, if attaching a modern star’s name to the song gets Jones’ name out there, it can’t be that bad of an idea.
