A change to of the date of the annual Mirror Lake jump didn’t prevent about 30,000 people from visiting the lake between 9 p.m. and 3 a.m. Tuesday night, according to OSU Police. Muddy sidewalks, abandoned flip-flops, towels hanging from branches and the faint odor of the Columbus Police Department’s horses lingered around the lake Wednesday morning, but they weren’t the only remnants of the festivities. For some students, the night will be imprinted on their police records as well as their memories. OSU Police received 12 calls for service during the jump Tuesday night and made six arrests. The calls were down from 25 last year, and police made one more arrest on Mirror Lake jump night 2009. The Columbus Police Department was not available for comment, but a Columbus Dispatch video showed police restraining a man using an aerosol spray can as a flamethrower. The OSU Medical Center’s emergency department saw 14 people between 10 p.m. Tuesday and 1 a.m. Wednesday. The emergency medical squad came to treat people at Mirror Lake 26 times for various injuries and transported nine people to the hospital. “Typically, we usually run around 30 extra patients,” said Jason Walsh, an OSU medical center

ALEXA ODOM Lantern reporter odom.33@osu.edu Airport workers said Thanksgiving weekend, traditionally one of the most traveled of the year, was uneventful in Columbus. But passengers gave mixed reviews about new and highly criticized security measures that include more invasive pat-downs and full-body scanners. “It’s basically being molested,” said Naomi David, a second-year in international business who flew from Columbus to Chicago on Wednesday. “They literally pat down every part of you, from your arms to your butt.” Complaints like David’s have been reported across the country, but officials at the Transportation Security Administration said they don’t plan to change the new measures. In a conference call last week, John Pistole, the TSA administrator, said the

organization had received about 2,000 complaints regarding the new technology. “Some of those complaints were, ‘I don’t like that’ or ‘I was uncomfortable,’” Pistole said. “We believe we’ve addressed it as best we can, making sure the screener doesn’t see the person.” Other students traveling for the holidays said that even with the additional security measures, lines were quick. “It didn’t take that long to get in and out of security,” said Joe Langley, a third-year in history. It “took about five to seven minutes to get my boarding pass and go through security.” Cheri Tolle, security manager at Port Columbus International Airport, said the new measures didn’t spark protests or disruptions. “It was pretty much business as usual,” she said. “Totally uneventful.” Tolle said she expects the same for the December holiday season.

“We don’t anticipate any problems,” Tolle said. “All our new changes will stand.” Langley said security workers patted him down because he forgot to throw away a tube of toothpaste in his bag before going through the scanner. “I didn’t really mind the pat-down,” he said. “It wasn’t that bad.” The TSA implemented the new security measures after a failed bombing attempt aboard a plane in Detroit on Christmas Day last year. In that case, a Nigerian man allegedly hid explosives in his underwear but failed to detonate them. The full-body scanners take a slightly blurred image of a person’s body to detect weapons. Passengers can opt out of the scanners but will then face a thorough pat-down. David said many people opted out of the scanners when she traveled, which slowed down the

Bucks beat Blue for 7 straight ZACK MEISEL Sports editor meisel.14@osu.edu Rivalries are often defined by the competition and intrigue created when the teams play. For one of college football’s most storied rivalries, Ohio State–Michigan has been lacking in the competition department for quite some time. The Buckeyes sported jerseys dating back to 1942 during Saturday’s meeting with Michigan, but the game’s result continued a tradition established in the last decade. The No. 6 Buckeyes rolled to their seventh consecutive win over their rival, beating the Wolverines 37-7 and clinching a share of their sixth straight Big Ten title in front of 105,491 fans at Ohio Stadium. As part of the Nike Pro Combat series, OSU wore custom-designed uniforms to honor the 1942 national championship team. The 2010 Buckeyes (11-1, 7-1) likely won’t be a part of any title game but moved a step closer toward a BCS bowl invite with their ninth win in the last 10 games against Michigan (7-5, 3-5). “It’s always the same feeling,” linebacker Ross Homan said. “Every time we beat Michigan, it’s always a great feeling and a success.” It took the Buckeye offense a quarter to warm up on a chilly Columbus afternoon. After a scoreless first frame, OSU exploded for 24 points in the second quarter. Devin Barclay opened the scoring with a 33-yard field goal to cap a 10-play, 74-yard OSU drive. “They put in some schemes that we hadn’t seen before, and it took us a little while to adjust to them,” senior offensive lineman Bryant Browning said. “I thought as the game went on, our offense was more effective.” An 18-yard punt placed the

Michigan beats OSU again in annual Blood Battle

Ohio State might have won the battle on the football field, but Michigan won the battle for blood. The final tally for the American Red Cross’ annual Blood Battle between the rival schools shows that Michigan edged out OSU by donating 2,513 units of blood, compared with 2,405 from OSU. A unit is about a pint of blood. The win is Michigan’s third consecutive victory in the blood battle. OSU won the battle for five straight years from 2003 to 2007 before the Wolverines began their streak. Nevertheless, both campuses should be proud, said Rodney Wilson, spokesman for the American Red Cross Central Ohio Blood Services Region. “The fact that more than 2,400 people at Ohio State donated blood in a couple weeks is amazing,” he said. “We’re always amazed each year how generous the OSU community is in supporting all year round.” The average daily need for blood in the central Ohio region is 650 units, Wilson said. There are

Amanda Opaskar, president of the American Red Cross Club at the University of Michigan, was excited to learn of the school’s victory. “We were thrilled that Michigan won, but we always know it is close,” she said. The blood donated this year at Michigan constitutes the largest single blood collection in southeastern Michigan, she said. “We lost the football game, but at least we can win the Blood Battle,” she said. Doire Perot, the blood services chair for the American Red Cross Club at OSU and a secondyear in business, said that although she expected to win this year, Michigan always comes out strong. “I’m hopeful that next year we can come out and win it,” Perot said. “We’re really proud of our campus, and looking forward to getting that trophy back next year.”

Drug shown to sharply cut risk of HIV infection THOMAS H. MAUGH II Los Angeles Times MCT

LOS ANGELES — In a finding that is being widely hailed as the first major prevention breakthrough in the AIDS era, researchers have shown that taking a single daily pill containing two HIV drugs can reduce risk of contracting the virus by an average of 44 percent — and by more than 70 percent if the subjects take most of their pills. The study involved nearly 2,500 high-risk gay men, but experts hope that the results will be applicable to other populations considered at risk for contracting the virus. Several studies are already underway to determine if that is the case. The findings, reported online Tuesday in the New England Journal of Medicine, come only a few months after an African study showed that a microbicidal gel can help protect women from contracting the virus and a little more than a year after a vaccine trial suggested that it may eventually be possible to raise antibodies against the virus.

“To see all these prevention strategies come together, we can begin to see an end to the epidemic,” said A. Cornelius Baker of the Presidential Advisory Council on HIV/AIDS. “The National AIDS Strategy introduced by the president in July called for reducing the U.S. epidemic by 25 percent. … If we can prove this works and get this strategy into the communities, we can reach that goal much quicker than we had anticipated and move even further to more goals.” Dr. Anthony S. Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, which was the major sponsor of the study, cautioned, however, that “No single prevention strategy is going to be effective for everyone, and it is important to note that the new findings pertain only to … men who have sex with men.” Experts agreed, however, that there is no reason to think that it would not be successful in other groups, although it must be tested. The new strategy is called pre-exposure prophylaxis, and that is an approach that has been used successfully in certain other diseases. Malaria or tuberculosis drugs, for example, are frequently

prescribed to people entering areas with high transmission rates. Antiretroviral drugs are also used to prevent transmission of HIV from mothers to infants during and after birth and in an effort to prevent infection after accidental exposure in hospitals and laboratories. The new study, called iPrEx, was conducted by an international team headed by Dr. Robert M. Grant of the Gladstone Institute of Virology and Immunology at the University of California San Francisco and Dr. Javier R. Lama of Investigaciones Medicas en Salud in Lima, Peru. They enrolled 2,499 men and transgender women who have sex with men at 11 sites in six countries. Half were given a daily dose of Truvada, a pill containing the AIDS drugs emtricitabine and tenofovir, and half a placebo. Truvada was chosen because it is effective, has few side effects and is already used by more than 1.5 million people worldwide. Subjects were followed for an average of 14 months, and given counseling about using condoms and safe sex practices. The researchers observed 36 HIV infections in

the group taking Truvada, compared to 64 in the control group taking placebo, a reduction of 43.8 percent. The reduction in risk, however, was very sensitive to how regularly the subjects took the medication. For those who took it on more than 50 percent of the days, as determined by pill counts and other measures, the risk fell by 50.2 percent. For those who took it 90 percent or more of the days, the risk fell by 72.8 percent. Side effects of the drug were mild, and included nausea in the first month, small increases in serum creatinine and unintentional weight loss. The subjects will be followed for another 18 months to monitor for long-term effects. In a separate study now under way, the drug is being tested in women. In separate arms of that study, researchers are also testing tenofovir only and a gel containing tenofovir.

Jump from 1A

At least two students jumped on Thanksgiving night emergency room manager. “We actually have to staff up for it every year.” Walsh said three extra nurses were on duty at the OSU emergency room. He said medical workers see a lot of intoxicated patients on Mirror Lake jump night, but alcohol poisoning is uncommon. Most patients are treated for hypothermia or minor injuries. Hospital workers typically warm the patients up, give them fluids and send them on their way, Walsh said. Richard Morman, deputy chief of OSU Police, said that at the peak of the evening, as many as 15,000 people were in the area surrounding Mirror Lake. “There seemed to be a lot more spectators than in years past,” Morman said. “It’s quite the phenomenon, though.” Student Safety Services had to escort at least five of those people back to their residence halls, Morman said. Student Life team members assisted students as well. Most students found the way back to their residence halls to warm up with free hot chocolate and other food. Mack Hall on South Campus offered free hot dogs to students, and there were 1,200 donuts up for grabs in the lobby of Blackburn House on North Campus. Residence hall workers took measures to keep out visitors who don’t live in their buildings. “Since we’re the closest hall to the lake, we had a lot of folks from Morrison, Canfield and Siebert trying to come through because it was quicker,” said Dakota Butch, resident manager of Mack Hall and a fourth-year in English. Butch said housekeeping workers in Mack locked some of the bathrooms to contain the mess, laid down plastic in the bathrooms, put cardboard in the elevator and left towels for office assistants to hand out. “There were water stations outside most of the halls where people got hosed off if they were too muddy,” Butch said. “The biggest problem was a few people coming in who had had way too much alcohol.” A group of graduate and undergraduate earth science students are researching the jump’s effect on Mirror Lake. “A lot of people say they always hear about the supposed urine content,” said Justin Von Bargen, a fifth-year in geological sciences. “I just told people to keep their head above the water and they should be fine.” Von Bargen leads a group that took water samples from three sites around Mirror Lake at noon Tuesday, several times throughout the jump and at 8 a.m. Wednesday. The group tested for a change in

was out for much of second half one interception. Posey hauled in five catches for 81 yards. Turnovers hindered Michigan’s first-half productivity. The Wolverines twice turned the ball over on downs and also lost a pair of fumbles. “We took advantage of their turnovers,” Pryor said. “Normally if you win the turnover margin, you have a good chance of winning.” Despite outgaining the Buckeyes in the first half, with 258 yards compared with OSU’s 229, Michigan trailed 24-7 at halftime. Quarterback Denard Robinson, widely considered the Heisman trophy favorite throughout the first half of the season, rushed for 105 yards before intermission. However, coach Rich Rodriguez said at halftime that the sophomore dislocated a couple of fingers on his non-throwing hand. Robinson sat out Michigan’s final drive of the first half and much of the second half. “It wouldn’t have been much of a problem,

many of the water’s properties, including temperature, and nitrogen and ammonia levels. An increase in nitrogen and ammonia levels in the lake could indicate two things: sediment on the bottom of the lake being stirred up or an increase in urine levels in the water, said Brandon McAdams, a first-year master’s student in hydrogeology. A combination of both could also lead to a rise in the levels. The majority of the group’s research is still in progress. The results so far have shown a spike in nitrogen and ammonia at 12:30 a.m. on the east side, the shallow end where most people jump in the lake. The nitrogen and ammonia levels are too high to be from stirred-up bottom sediments alone and suggest additional input, such as drunk people peeing, Von Bargen said. Results from 2009 show that the change in nitrogen concentration could indicate an addition of almost 140 liters of urine in the lake. Urine wasn’t the only thing jumpers left in the water. Paul Walsh, Facilities and Operations Development zone leader for most of South Campus, including the Mirror Lake area, said groundskeepers have to rake flip-flops out of Mirror Lake. “Groundskeepers pick up trash and items of clothing that were left,” Walsh said. The groundskeepers came in at 3 a.m. Wednesday to clean up the mess students made, even though their shift doesn’t normally start until 7 a.m. To prepare, Walsh said groundskeepers put up signs warning students about jumping into Mirror Lake, and they removed the lake’s fountain, which stays out through winter. An area east of the lake will be resodded. The groundskeepers’ clean-up efforts were not in vein, as far fewer students returned Thursday night. Between about 10:30 and 11:30 p.m. on Thanksgiving, only two students did not heed warnings from OSU officials that they could be charged with criminal trespassing if they entered Mirror Lake on Thursday. The students, strangers to each other, jumped into Mirror Lake at about 11:15 p.m. Thursday. “I’m not willing to break tradition just because of a holiday,” said Chad Shields, a sixth-year in construction systems management. As he was preparing to take the chilly plunge on the rainy Thanksgiving night, Alex Slivinski, a thirdyear in actuarial science and economics, arrived at the lake with two friends and decided to join the jump. It appeared that no police were monitoring the lake, and the two students’ 30-second swim went uninterrupted. Chief Paul Denton said in an e-mail that OSU Police received no calls or reports of people in the lake Thursday. “Officers checked the lake and buildings in proximity randomly throughout the day,” Denton said in the e-mail. “No one was reported as being observed in the lake while doing so.” Collin Binkley contributed to this story.

but he likes to grip it with that hand and he couldn’t get any feeling back,” Rodriguez said. “He tried to go back in the second half but he just couldn’t do it. It’s unfortunate because he was playing well today.” Sophomore Tate Forcier, whom the Buckeyes picked off four times in Ann Arbor, Mich., in last year’s matchup, took over. He threw an interception on the first play after halftime. The Buckeye running game struggled before the break. Dan “Boom” Herron totaled minus-1 yards on five first-half carries. His fortunes changed in the third quarter. Herron scored from 32 yards out on OSU’s opening drive of the second half, making it his 11th straight game with a touchdown. “It was a strange game offensively where we kind of led with the pass in the first half and all of a sudden we got a couple turnovers and we are looking more at leading with the run the second half,” coach Jim Tressel said. “It wasn’t like all of a sudden a snowstorm came in or something. It was just that’s not what we needed to do, and we always talk about we do what the team needs, and first half we needed to throw it.” Michigan punter Will Hagerup didn’t travel

to Columbus after being suspended for what the team called “a violation of team rules.” After backup punter Seth Broekhuizen pinned the Buckeyes at their own 2-yard line, Herron thundered down the sideline to the end zone. A holding call against receiver Dane Sanzenbacher near the end of the run turned a 98-yard touchdown into an 89-yard pickup. Herron’s rush tied the school record for longest play from scrimmage. Gene Fekete gained 89 yards on a carry against Pittsburgh in 1942. “I didn’t think it was a penalty but I don’t make the calls,” Sanzenbacher said. “I wouldn’t change what I did if I could do the play again, if that makes it any better. Sorry to ‘Boom’ to steal his touchdown. I was just trying to help clear the way for him to get into the end zone.” Herron finished with 22 carries for 175 yards, the third time he has topped the century mark in the last four contests. The game resembled the last trip the Wolverines made to the Horseshoe, when they fell 42-7 in Rich Rodriguez’s first season in 2008.

student voice Gee not politically correct, but accurate OSU president’s commentary on college football stirred the pot last week, but his candid perspective is welcome LANTERN Columnist

Ohio State president E. Gordon Gee added some extra gravy to Thanksgiving dinner conversation. He spoke Wednesday about the college football bowl season, arguing that TCU and Boise State, at the time ranked No. 3 and No. 4, respectively, did not deserve to play for the national championship. His reasoning mostly revolved around the teams’ weak schedules. Gee also said teams that play in the Southeastern and Big Ten conferBRAD MILLER ences face “murderer’s row every miller.4410@osu.edu week.” That drew criticism from just about everybody. Boise State president Bob Kustra referred to the “murderer’s row” comment as the “biggest exaggeration I think we’ve heard this year in college football” in an interview with the Associated Press. TCU athletic director Chris Del Conte told press that Gee made his argument using “erroneous information” and is doing a poor job of “standing for fairness, equity and truth.” Perhaps Gee should have loosened his bow tie a notch when talking about his own conference, but everything he said about Boise State and TCU was accurate. Those teams do not face tough competition. Neither team plays in a competitive conference and neither faced a very stiff non-conference schedule. Of course, we will no longer have to worry about Boise State playing for a national title. The Broncos lost to No. 19 Nevada on Friday night. Nevertheless, the public outrage about Gee’s comments is yet another example of people bowing down to political correctness, which encourages old, rich, white guys to forever act just like old, rich, white guys. I feel as though talking about Boise State or TCU is like playing a game in which the participants must do their best to avoid the truth. It is like we are expected to keep a secret and not mention the teams’ flaccid schedules. We are supposed to blindly accept their excuses that they “beat the teams put in front of them every single week.” Regardless of whether these teams purposely avoid stiff competition or if big schools refuse to play them, we must look at what’s in front of us. If we are to put so much emphasis on having the best teams playing for the national championship, then I don’t see how Boise State or TCU could be selected. When it comes to determining these things, schedules matter. Gee’s most ill-advised statement had nothing to do with Boise State or TCU. When speaking of Big Ten teams, he said, “We do not play the Little Sisters of the Poor.” Well, no, but OSU did play such lightweight equivalents as Marshall,

Letter to the editor ROBERT WHEELERSBURG OSU graduate, class of 1980 Professor of anthropology Elizabethtown College wheelersburg@etown.edu Editor, As a 1980 OSU graduate I am a huge Buckeye football fan. I want to thank OSU President E. Gordon Gee, however, for reminding me what is really important in life three days before The Game — it’s not the game, it’s not how many days since we beat Michigan, it’s not the Rose Bowl. What is really important in life is serving humanity, like the mission of the Sisters of the Poor.

“He claims that in the SEC, Big Ten and Big 12 it’s murderer’s row every week and there’s absolutely little substance to that claim ... for Gee to stand up and talk about murderer’s row every week is just the height of folly. It’s ridiculous. I think he’s going to set off a firestorm he probably has no interest in creating.”

Bob Kustra Boise State president, in an interview with The Idaho Statesman, in response to Gee’s comments.

Ohio, Eastern Michigan, Indiana, Purdue and Minnesota. The toughest team OSU played this season was Wisconsin, who beat the Buckeyes by two touchdowns. But then again, Gee never said the Buckeyes deserved to play for a national title. It’s no surprise that Gee’s comments inspired animosity from tight

sphincters all across the country. People are free to react however they please, but I for one enjoy speech that stirs the pot. As for Gee, I’m sure it won’t be long before he makes an apologetic commercial in which he asks the question, “What should I do?”

Back off, gov’t, I can choose my drink One thing that I find exasperating is the government’s tendency to get involved in every aspect of the lives of American citizens. Whether it is in people’s bedrooms, their wallets or women’s uteri, you can count on the government being there. Most recently, the government has entered a new room of our house: the pantry. Statewide bans of alcoholic energy drinks have spread faster than the Democrats lost control of the House of Representatives a few weeks ago, and it is unacceptable. Four Loko, a popular alcoholic energy drink, garnered national scrutiny following the hospitalization of nine students at Central Washington University after they consumed large quantities of the beverage. But looking at the situation as a whole, I would say that only having nine students hospitalized out of the thousands who drink Four Loko should be considered a success. The government obviously does not agree.

Gee’s comments prompt reader to donate to Sisters of the Poor, ask others to help

Well, I don’t know enough about the Xs and Os of college football. I do know, having been both a Southeastern Conference president and a Big Ten president, that it’s like murderer’s row every week for these schools. We do not play the Little Sisters of the Poor. We play very fine schools on any given day. So I think until a university runs through that gauntlet that there’s some reason to believe that they not be the best teams to (be) in the big ballgame.”

DYLAN TUSSEL tussel.2@osu.edu It doesn’t matter if the drink is “dangerous.” That does not justify forcing the manufacturer to either strip the drink of its caffeine or cease production altogether. Frankly, I don’t think college students go out and get drunk to stay safe in the first place. They want to have fun. They know the dangers of consuming alcohol and energy drinks, and they choose to do it anyway. On the container of every drink, there are nutrition facts, a list of ingredients and the

alcohol content. That information is sufficient for the consumer to be able to make an informed decision whether to drink the beverage, and how much. There are people who think it’s cool to drink large amounts of this type of drink, and why rain on their parade? Let them be “cool,” and let them deal with the subsequent hospital visit. I don’t care because it doesn’t affect me, but governmental bans on certain products will. I don’t drink Four Loko, and I have no desire to. But I’m just waiting for the day that someone has a heart attack from drinking too much coffee — my favorite drink — and the government decides to enforce a “decaf-only” policy on coffee sales. If the government can snap its fingers and ban a type of drink like this, what other restrictions can it impose on us? Can you imagine a life free from asinine governmental constraints? I can’t either. That’s probably because it’s nowhere near the lives we live in the U.S. In an ideal country, the

government would allow us to do as we please, insofar as it does not harm other people. We could drink whatever we want, spend our money however we want and even relax with a little herbal refreshment, if you know what I mean. Yes, the government’s recent actions banned only alcoholic energy drinks, but this is only a taste of what the government can do. Recent polls have shown that nearly 80 percent of Americans don’t trust the government, and I’ll be the first to say I fall into that group. But the way our government is set up, we can only use our votes to choose between the lesser of two evils, i.e., Democrats and Republicans. So the way I see it, the people don’t have as much of a say in the affairs of this democracy as we think we do. For now, all we can do is keep our eyes open for governmental oppressions and complain about them loudly. And if you get a chance, go out and buy a caffeinated Four Loko because before too long, they’ll be gone.

Stress is dangerous, but research shows how to cope LANTERN Columnist

Stressed to death? With Autumn Quarter finals edging up and the end in sight, I always have wondered what stress is capable of doing to us. I found the answer in a National Geographic special on the work of Stanford University professor and MacArthur Genius grantee Dr. Robert Sapolsky. His longitudinal study on stress concluded that it can be lethal to our minds, bodies and spirits. There are those of us here as students at Ohio State who work three jobs, with kids, or taking care of a parent or grandparent. There are others of us who are first generation college students or pay our own way through school. There are those of us who are catching colds and fighting the flu. Others combine sleep

PATRICIA CUNNINGHAM cunningham.212@osu.edu deprivation with all of the above. I recently looked to Sapolsky’s work to see if I could garner an understanding of the science behind the burden of stress. The answer is more than alarming. Stress is complicated.

Stress can shrink our brains, kill brain cells, clog our arteries and shorten the telomeres — regions of repetitive DNA at the end of a chromosome that protect the end of the chromosome from deterioration.

In Sapolsky’s work, he has found that stress can shrink our brains, kill brain cells, clog our arteries and shorten the telomeres — regions of repetitive DNA at the end of a chromosome that protect the end of the chromosome from deterioration. Basically, a telomere is like the plastic end of the shoelace that keeps the lace from fraying.

What’s the big deal about that? Shortening of the telomeres results in premature aging in all aspects (skin, organ and tissue, brain function, just to name a few), which means this shortening also puts your body closer to dying. Stress is, in fact, a killer. How can we manage stress better and not let it compromise our livelihood? Sapolsky’s work

also provided a framework for combating stress. There are three main categories of stress coping I pulled from his research: community, personal practices and jettisoning stressors. Community refers to the need to establish groups that are supportive and conducive to your wellness. Perhaps that is your movie night with your homies, retail therapy with the ladies or, for me, an all-women book club. Community — being in a supportive space — helps to repair the damage stress causes. With respect to personal practices, the professor meant that we should incorporate practices that reduce stress. Practices proven to do that include getting adequate sleep. Meditation and prayer have

appeared repetitively in several studies as good ways to reduce stress. Another method is moderate exercise. Too much exercise, or obsessing about it, can be stressful. (I like riding my bike to work and class, and the bar.) Last, getting rid of stressors like poor relationships and unhealthful habits that bring you down is the other category that can be helpful. Regularly purging and cleaning your living space can give you peace of mind. All of these together can bring balance to our lives and revive our bodies, minds and souls. Remember as you gain more stress in your life, put things in place to reduce the impact of stress so your life is as long as it can be.

campus N. Korea’s artillery, rhetoric keep tensions high BARBARA DEMICK Los Angeles Times MCT BEIJING — The distant rumble of artillery practice in North Korea sent shell-shocked residents of Yeonpyeong Island scurrying to their bomb shelters Friday as a U.S. aircraft carrier cruised toward the region for military exercises this weekend. Although the explosions turned out to be training exercises inside North Korea, the reaction underscored the high anxiety levels after an artillery attack Tuesday killed four South Koreans on the island. The North Korean propaganda machine also kept up its unnerving stream of threats Friday, warning it would unleash “a shower of dreadful fire and blow up the bulwark of the enemies.” The Chinese are also unhappy about the imminent arrival of the George Washington, which is to participate in U.S. and South Korean war games that begin Sunday and are designed to deter North Korea from further attacks. Chinese Foreign Minister Yang Jiechi spoke by telephone Friday with his South Korean counterpart, Kim Sung-hwan, to express China’s “principled position” — as South Korea’s Yonhap news agency put it — about naval exercises in the Yellow Sea. The George Washington was supposed to participate in joint naval exercises in the Yellow Sea over the summer, but China launched such a strenuous campaign against the presence of the nuclear-powered carrier that the war games were moved farther away. Those exercises followed a March torpedo attack on a South Korean ship that left 46 sailors dead, for which China refused to hold North Korea accountable. This time, the Chinese reaction has been more subdued. On Thursday, Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao simply warned against any “provocative military behavior” on the Korean peninsula, without specifying whose behavior he referred to. Months ago, the U.S. had announced its intention to conduct the upcoming exercises in the Yellow Sea, despite objections from China. But the maneuvers had not been formally scheduled earlier this week when the North Korean artillery barrage occurred. A U.S. military official said the U.S. had not held off on setting the date for the exercises because China had voiced objections. Nor, he said, did the U.S. delay the maneuvers to give China the opportunity to pressure North Korea. “This was not an anvil that was held over China’s head,” the officer said, speaking on the condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the matter. China’s state-controlled press has been curiously silent about the participation of the George Washington in the naval exercises, although some hard-liners have been speaking out against it. “Sending in an aircraft carrier is only going to make everybody in the neighborhood nervous and is not going to help the United States to achieve their goals. Nothing good can come out of it,” said Xu Guangyu, a retired military officer who is now an analyst with the China Arms Control and Disarmament Association. Others were more cautious, a reflection of the debate among

A day after North Korea’s artillery attack on Yeonpyeong Island, South Korea, on Nov. 24., South Korea found the burned bodies of two islanders killed in a North Korean artillery attack, marking the first civilian deaths in the incident and dramatically escalating the tensions in the region’s latest crisis. Chinese scholars about the continuing misbehavior of its often-wayward ally, North Korea. Zhang Liangui, a professor at the Party School of the Chinese Communist Party Central Committee and one of the most prominent Korea scholars in China, said in response to a question about the deployment of the carrier: “We have to admit, there are many problems that can’t be solved unless the United States is involved.” Beijing has come under much criticism abroad for failing to rein in North Korea’s Kim Jong Il, who made an unprecedented two trips this year to China, where he received a red-carpet welcome at the highest levels.

Burnham aims for witty humor “I never know what to do when I’m home. I play piano. I work. I eat. But once in a while, I will be stuck in the tar pits of boredom. Like I am now. So why not write?” comedian Bo Burnham said. He got his start in comedy back in 2008 when a few videos he posted on YouTube went viral. He writes quirky songs about love, math, irony and sometimes Helen Keller. His wit combined with his allusions to historical events led to him being the youngest comedian to have his own special on Comedy Central. He is now on the Bo Burnham and (No) Friends Tour, which will come to Capitol Theatre on Dec. 5. He took time to discuss his own start in comedy and views on the industry.

Did you always want to be a comedian, or was this purely accidental? How did YouTube play a role in it? The online thing was accidental, but I did always want to be a comedian. It’s just weird that this was how I became one.

How did your parents react to the Catholic/ abortion clinic jokes? My parents are actually pretty progressive. I went to a Catholic school, but they’re not really Catholic. They’re cool with it. I try to get away from all that intensive stuff anyway. Not because I don’t like offensive stuff, but I think they’re cheap and easy and I didn’t want to be making easy jokes. Just shocking people into laughter, that’s an easy thing to do. But my parents have always been very supportive of me.

How much of your personal life do you insert in your jokes? How much of what you say do you actually believe? I would say zero to 5 percent … at least on the surface; some comedians just stand up and talk How do you come up with your material? How about their life and their wife and their kid, and I do you get inspired for your material? thought it would be fun to do sorta silly, sarcastic, It’s very rarely based on real life. Some comedibackhanded, ridiculous things. So I try to never go Screening ofansSteven Spielberg’s are very right-brained; they see stuff and it after personal experience. There are some moments inspires them. But I’m very left brain; I sit down and of poignancy that I actually believe, but for the most “Jaws” part they’re just jokes, and I sacrifice reality for that. 2 pm @ Wexner Center Film/Video Theater

Author writes of vampires and sex on OSU’s campus R obyn Czy sz Lantern reporter czysz.1@osu.edu For Glenn Collin, author of the vampire-themed book “The Sons of Apollyon,” writing a book was the ultimate goal. He achieved that goal 20 years after starting it. The book takes place in and around the Columbus area, with the final scenes taking place in the ‘Shoe, and a killing scene in Mirror Lake. “I love Columbus,” Colin said. “And I wrote about what I know.” This however, is not the average vampire book. “It’s an adult story,” Colin said. “There are several sexy scenes.” In the first scene of the book, a prostitute gets killed, and Colin described it as “pretty racy.” Colin said this vampire story is “180 degrees from what everyone knows about vampires.”

He started writing the book 20 years ago when his wife, Betsy Colin, gave him the idea. “I’d always been a fan of vampires, and she gave me the idea to put my own spin on a vampire story,” Colin said. Unfortunately, the manuscript was misplaced, and Betsy didn’t find it until after the family moved to a new home last year. Glenn said he spent about nine months updating and finishing the story. Once the book was finished, he found a website, offthebookshelf. com, where he uploaded the book. The website lets people read the rough copy of books and give feedback. Glenn’s family and friends helped edit the book. The book was officially released over the summer, and Glenn said it has only sold about 50 copies. He said it is close to breaking even, however. Glenn’s daughter, Brittany Colin, a third-year in psychology at Ohio State, helped edit the book and make the transitions smoother.

“I can’t believe my dad wrote a sex book,” said Brittany, who is also an aspiring author. “I’m jealous but very proud of my dad.” His real reason, however, for writing the book is not to make money. He wants to raise awareness about the disorder Transverse Myelitis. Betsy was diagnosed with Transverse Myelitis, which is a neurological disorder where a person’s autoimmune system attacks the spinal cord. Glenn said he wants to donate a percentage of the profits to the Transverse Myelitis Association because there is no known cause or cure. “I want to shed some light on it,” Glenn said. Both of his daughters, Merissa and Brittany, are on the cover of the book. Still, he doesn’t consider himself a writer yet. “There are many talented writers out there,” he said, “but only a small percentage makes it.”

We turn to Wii to lose weight instead of real exercise

6A

AR TS Columnist

Obesity is out of fashion. America has finally caught on that the correlation between obesity and Type 2 diabetes is high. Accordingly, influential figures and organizations are backing programs to counteract childhood obesity. First lady Michelle Obama is backing the “Let’s Move!” program, and the NFL sponsors the “Play 60” plan to encourage kids to exercise. The video game industry, which has traditionally profited from keeping its customers on the couch, has found ways to deal with the trend by creating motionsensing devices that require the player to move to beat the game. Nintendo was far ahead of the curve with the Wii, but Xbox and PlayStation responded soon enough with the Kinect and Move, respectively. These devices weren’t invented for the sake of exercise, but sports games are among the most popular titles, so it’s just as well. Problem solved, right? Maybe. If you consider Jets coach Rex Ryan to be in shape. Movement-oriented games are better for a gamer’s health than “Super Mario World,” but video game companies are a long way from replacing traditional exercise. One of the main culprits is the

R yan Book book.15@osu.edu wildly successful “Wii Fit” title. The game begins by giving a fitness test that generates the fitness “age” of the player. According to the game’s website, the number is generated by taking the player’s BMI and balance into account (balance is measured by a test administered by the game). The idea is that, over time, your character (and you) will decrease in fitness age by playing the game. A cross-country runner by nature, I was unpleasantly surprised when “Wii Fit” declared me to be a 32-year-old (I was 21 at the time). After crying myself to sleep that night, I realized the game

was leading me on. I can run 12 miles. My 8-year-old cousin can’t. “Wii Fit” said my cousin was the fitness equivalent of Mark Spitz. The issue is that video games such as “Wii Fit” and similar sports titles are being touted as more relevant to good health than they truly are. Again, these games are much better for a player’s health than their predecessors but they are misleading consumers and in the process, distracting them from the reallife health benefits of exercise. It’s easy for a misinformed parent to make an ill-informed decision. Parents naturally want what’s best for their children but they’ve got time management issues as well. They see products like “Wii Fit” and assume that it’s a suitable replacement for actual exercise. They push worries about their children’s well-being to the backseat because they assume Nintendo has it covered. Part of the problem is that Americans assume that anything that involves burning calories qualifies as exercise. During high school, a classmate earnestly told me that his workout regiment consisted of “making out” because he had read that kissing burned 17 calories every 15 minutes. Sad, but true.

Hula hooping is one of the activities offered on the game ‘Wii Fit.’ This and other sportsoriented games are among Nintendo’s best-selling titles for the system. Many also assume that motionsensing video game exercise is on par with real exercise because they put just as much effort into it. For example, when people play Wii tennis, they tend to swing just as hard as they would on an actual tennis court (often resulting in broken bones and televisions). But Rafael Nadal isn’t in great shape because he can hit a tennis ball 130 mph. He’s in shape because he has to

chase the ball all over the court, a step that Wii dumbs down. I’ll say it one last time, just for effect: Gaming systems like the Wii and Xbox Kinect aren’t bad for you. They make great training wheels for someone who isn’t used to regular exercise. But at some point, you need to take off the training wheels and go for an actual bike ride.


arts&life Comedian from 6A

(Minchin). Tim in a musical sense, and Steve’s comedy.

lists Steve Martin among favorites

How do you think your comedy has grown over the years? How do you feel about the change? I’m definitely happy with the way it’s changed. When I was younger, I was a little dirty kid who was writing songs. “Ooh I’m so young and I’m saying these things, how funny is that?” And it worked, but it was a bit of a gimmick, a bit of a novelty. I think I’ve changed the act by becoming a little less tacky musically and by finding my own voice in poetry and standup. I think my act has changed for the better. I think it’s become less cheap and more original and more like me rather than the comedians I was trying to be like. Like Stephen Lynch or something.

Young comic write jokes. For me, it’s a lot more systematic. It’s not like seeing something and being inspired by it or an idea. It’s usually sitting down and writing words and breaking down words. It’s much more mathematical than the way most comedians write. A lot of your jokes are really smart and complicated, so most people will have to Google some things to understand them. Does that affect how you write at all? Have you ever had to try to dumb something down? No, because usually if it’s formulated like that, it’s maybe 50 jokes in two minutes, so even if people understood five, it’s fine. I mean, I would probably only get 10 of those if I listened to those once, and that’s fine because that’s enough jokes to get for one listening. I do that just so that it’s fun to listen to them multiple times and figure out different jokes. I don’t ever want my show to be some impossible cryptic puzzle that no one can decipher, but I like putting those little complicated things, like little nuances that you won’t find until you’ve listened to it a few times. What, if anything, do you hope to achieve with your comedy? I’m definitely not trying to change the world or specific issues. I don’t want to be a preacher or anything, but I do think that I want to maybe just challenge things. I think, hopefully, by making smart, cool comedy, I can inspire younger kids to be smart and cool rather than try to emulate the stupid stuff in entertainment. Not everyone wants to be the cast of “Jersey Shore.” If they watch my act, they might want to do something different. It’s not just about making people laugh. It’s more like I want to make something that’s cool and maybe be to younger kids what all the older comics that I look up to were for me.

‘i want to just challenge things,’ Burnham said in his interview. ‘i think by making smart, cool comedy, i can inspire kids to be smart and cool rather than try to emulate the stupid stuff in entertainment.”

Excluding (George) Carlin, who is your absolute favorite comedian? Steve Martin. A lot of people my age know Steve Martin as the “Cheaper by the Dozen” guy, but he was one of the greatest comedians ever, and he is definitely the one that if I look at my act now, I think I’m most trying to emulate. The person that has the biggest influence on my act is him. Him or Tim

What’s being on tour like? Do you get to go out and actually see the cities you visit? More now. I did a tour last year and I was on a plane the whole time, but now that I’m on a bus, I have more time. What do you think about the fame? Do you get recognized now? I would never consider myself famous. I do these shows and people come to my shows and that’s cool, but in real life there is no difference. I go to the movies and everything. There is no fame! I really don’t like all that stuff. It just seems weird. Any advice for comics that are new to the business? Yeah. Well, I have no advice on how to become successful because I just got really lucky, but as far as becoming a good comic, I would say you need to research comedy as much as you can, watch as much comedy as you can, find out your favorite comics, and then find out why your favorite comics are funny or how they’re funny. What specifically are they doing that’s so funny? And when you understand how comedy works, it can help you write much better. Because there is no comedy school. Architects go to school for it, every other job you go to school, even actors go to acting school. There is nothing really like that for comedy, and I wouldn’t really recommend comedy classes because you would really have to teach yourself by researching. I would say research then write as much as you can. That’s how I did it anyway. What new things are you working on right now?

I’m working on a new hour of comedy and this tour. I’m also working on a pilot with MTV that might happen soon. What do you think goes through people’s minds who get offended at jokes? Where do you stand on “getting offended?” I can’t speak for anybody else, but I think there are so many bigger issues in the world than a joke. But I don’t ever get angry at a person who might have gotten offended. It’s their right to feel that way. I never try to offend people. The only thing I try to challenge are ideas that I think are wrong, like thinking that God doesn’t like gay people. I don’t want to offend people just for the sake of offending them. I think it’s good to offend people to get them to change their minds. Do you think comedians can get “inspirations” from other comedians, or is it just stealing jokes? I think every comedian gets inspired by other comedians, just like every musician is inspired by past musicians. I get inspired by comedians who are contemporary, like people whom I work with. I get inspired by them all the time. Joke stealing I think is very overused. I mean, in the age of Internet, everyone is pretty sure that if you steal a joke, everyone’s going to find out. I believe in parallel thought. I think it’s very important to be influenced by the thoughts of other comedians. So I’m sure you’ve been asked who your favorite comedians are before, but who are your least favorite comedians? (not counting Dane Cook and Carlos Mencia) The Dane Cook hate train is kinda ridiculous because Dane Cook introduced an entire generation to new comedians, and the reason that all of us comedians, that all of our albums are even selling, is because of Dane Cook. He is definitely not as bad as people paint him. What are the odds that everyone’s least favorite comedian is the most successful comedian? You know what I mean? That has to be jealousy. My least favorite comedian’s probably some hacky road comic performing at a s----- club every night. I try not to hate on successful comedians. Don’t judge lest ye be judged.

think they’re emphasizing what a big game this is, and we’re not taking it lightly.” The 2010 team doesn’t know what it feels like to lose to Michigan. “It’s obviously a goal you have coming in, and you never want to be on the losing side of this rivalry,” Dane Sanzenbacher said. “I’m proud to say I’m leaving here never losing to them.”

Ohio State defender Lauren Beachy’s first collegiate goal was a historic one for the Buckeyes. Beachy connected on a penalty shot in the 21st minute of play for a game-winning shot that sent the OSU women’s soccer team to its first Final Four appearance in program history after a 2-0 victory against Georgetown at Jesse Owens Memorial Stadium. “I knew that it was my role to step up and do what I had to do,” Beachy said. “I knew it was my time.” Tiffany Cameron tacked on an insurance goal in the 53rd minute of play when she sprinted down the left side of the field and floated a long ball over Georgetown goalkeeper Jackie DesJardin. Forwards Lauren Granberg and Paige Maxwell both assisted on the goal, which was Cameron’s seventh of the season.

Big Ten aims for another win over ACC

‘Little guys’ more worthy than Gee suggests Perhaps Gordon Gee should loosen his bow tie. Ohio State’s president told the Associated Press on Wednesday that Boise State and TCU, the prettiest of college football’s ugly stepsisters, were undeserving of a berth in the BCS Championship Game. Boise State’s overtime meltdown against Nevada on Friday night made Gee’s point half-moot. The Broncos’ first regular season loss since 2007 subtracted them from the national title equation. “I don’t know enough about the X’s and O’s of college football,” Gee told the AP. “I do know, having been both a Southeastern Conference president and a Big Ten president, that it’s like murderer’s row every week for these schools. We do not play the Little Sisters of the Poor. We play very fine schools on any given day. “So I think until a university runs through that gauntlet that there’s some reason to believe that they not be the best teams to (be) in the big ball game.” Every school schedules cupcake opponents. Gee can’t hide the fact that the Buckeyes hosted Marshall (5-7) and Eastern Michigan (2-10). Even No. 1 Auburn beat up on Arkansas State (4-8) and LouisianaMonroe (5-7) and No. 2 Oregon shellacked New Mexico (1-11) and Portland State (2-9). Teams can’t survive by heaving rocks at goliaths every Saturday. They need a few weeks of the season to regroup and get healthy by hosting an inferior opponent. That’s one of the few beauties the BCS system creates: Every week of the season is a playoff, with one slip-up capable of marring an entire season. Gee

Lavender, Prahalis fuel OSU to victory

Buckeyes face Notre Dame on Friday “Georgetown was a tough team to prepare for,” OSU coach Lori Walker said. “They didn’t get here by accident. It was amazing to kind of watch as that second goal went in, you could see kind of a change.” The No. 3-seeded Buckeyes held on to their 2-0 lead for the final 37 minutes of action by dominating the ball throughout the second half, out-shooting the No. 4-seeded Hoyas 17-8. OSU goalkeeper Katie Baumgardner and the Buckeye defense recorded their third NCAA Tournament shutout. “Our defense comes to play every game,” Beachy said. “It’s a team concept. There’s not one of us who is an all-star. We all work together and we know each other’s strengths and weaknesses.” The Buckeyes will head to Cary, N.C., to play Notre Dame on Friday, with the winner advancing to the national championship game against the winner of Stanford and Boston College. Walker, who won a national championship as North Carolina’s starting goalkeeper in 1989, will focus on preparing her team to play on the biggest stage in collegiate women’s soccer. “I’m not going to lie. I mean, to go back to Cary and to be the first Tar Heel alum to make the Final Four is pretty special,” Walker said. “We’re going to do exactly what we’ve been doing. It really is just about being in the moment, and all we’ve got to do is be one goal better than the team we play on Friday night.”

Behind a pair of double-doubles from its star players, the No. 7 OSU women’s basketball team (5-0) overcame a slow start to defeat UNC-Wilmington 88-69 on Sunday at the Schottenstein Center. Center Jantel Lavender scored 25 points to go with 11 rebounds, and point guard Samantha Prahalis scored 21 points and recorded 11 assists in her second game back from serving a three-game suspension for committing a secondary violation in the offseason. The Buckeyes struggled to establish a rhythm in the first half, committing seven turnovers and missing five of their first eight free-throw attempts. OSU coach Jim Foster said his team is still adjusting to Prahalis’ presence in the line-up. “Without a doubt it’s a work in progress,” Foster said. “In the first half we forced some issues. … There’s no bad teams this time of year, let alone — that’s a good team.” UNC-Wilmington led the Buckeyes 17-16 with nine minutes remaining in the first half before a Prahalis floater regained the lead for OSU. Amber Stokes then added to the OSU lead with a jump shot and stole the ensuing inbounds pass, finding Prahalis for another floater, which extended the Buckeyes’ lead to 22-17. Paced by 12 first-half points from guard Brittany Johnson, the Buckeyes failed to push their lead to more than eight points, as UNC-Wilmington cut the Buckeye advantage to 37-32 at the end of the half following a 3-point shot by Abria Trice. Johnson finished the game with 17 points. “Brittany did a very good job at the offensive end,” Foster said. “On this team, if you run, you’re going to get pretty good shots.” The Buckeyes had a difficult time

putting away the Seahawks in the second half, as back-to-back 3-point shots from Alisha Andrews and Jessica Freeman cut the Buckeyes’ lead to 57-54 with less than 11 minutes remaining in the game. “When you win a lot of games, you’re targeted by your opponents,” Foster said. “We’re the big game on a lot of teams’ schedules.” The Buckeyes extended their lead to 11 points on a 3-point shot from Prahalis, but the Seahawks answered back again on the next play when Brittany Blackwell was fouled on a lay-up. She made the subsequent free throw. The Seahawks, however, couldn’t find an answer for Lavender in the second half. With less than seven minutes remaining, she scored on six consecutive possessions, pushing the OSU lead to 80-65. “We started running the floor really well, reversing the ball and making the extra pass,” Lavender said. “It was just, basically, attention to detail, running the plays right and reversing the ball.” Lavender’s basket with 6:02 remaining in the second half moved her past former OSU center Jessica Davenport for the school’s record for career field goals. “I’ve been fortunate to coach some very, very talented post players here,” Foster said. “Jantel got that running start as a freshman here and she hasn’t stopped since, so it was just a matter of time until that was going to happen.” The Buckeyes will next face Virginia on Thursday in the Big Ten-ACC challenge, when they’ll play their lone game of the season at St. John Arena before taking on No. 11 Oklahoma on Sunday at the Schottenstein Center. “I like the challenge. I like the fact that we’re playing a lot of different teams with a lot of different looks,” Lavender said. “It’s basically preparing us for anything that we could potentially face in the NCAA Tournament.”

sports Men’s hockey team lets potential sweep slip away kenny smiTH Lantern reporter smith.5323@osu.edu With a 2-1 lead after two periods, the Ohio State men’s ice hockey team (5-7-1, 2-5-1-1 CCHA) seemed poised to “sweep” a two-game series with the No. 14-ranked University of Alaska-Fairbanks (8-5-3, 5-4-3-2 CCHA) Saturday at Nationwide Arena. But the Buckeyes quickly lost control of the game and gave up four third-period goals, including three in the final 5:30 of play, as Alaska skated to a 5-2 win. “It was a good team effort tonight,” Alaska coach Dallas Ferguson said. “We were missing a couple of guys but we feel like we have good depth at our positions. The guys did what they had to do to be successful.” OSU senior forward John Albert gave OSU a 1-0 lead with his wrap-around goal just 2:16 into the first period. Freshman

forward Alex Lippincott gave the Buckeyes a 2-0 lead in the second period, and OSU appeared to be in control of the game. Momentum quickly shifted to Alaska when OSU junior forward Danny Dries received a major penalty for hitting an Alaska player from behind. The Buckeyes had to play a man down for five minutes. Alaska scored on the power play, the start of a 5-0 run. After the goal, OSU senior defenseman Corey Toy had to sit two minutes for a slashing penalty, giving Alaska a 5-3 man advantage. “The difference in the game was the five-minute major and the two-minute minor in the first 40 minutes,” OSU coach Mark Osiecki said. “The penalties killed us. We wasted so much energy killing the penalties that it wore on us the rest of the game.” Despite the disappointing loss, OSU did not leave the series empty-handed. In the first game of the series Friday, the teams skated to a 3-3 tie, and OSU won in a shootout. OSU trailed 3-2 into the final minute of the game, but with just 10 seconds

Challenge from 1B

ACC won 10 of the first 11 ACC/Big Ten Challenges face off against Florida State for the second consecutive year. OSU will try to equal last year’s 77-64 win at 7:30 p.m. in Tallahassee, Fla. The Buckeyes enter the matchup a perfect 5-0. The challenge’s only first-time meeting comes Tuesday when Georgia Tech travels to Northwestern. The Wildcats are led by junior John Shurna, who is averaging 22.7 points and five rebounds a game this season. The Yellow Jackets are struggling at 4-2 after losing Derrick Favors, the third pick in the 2010 NBA draft. Traditional Big Ten bottom-feeder Iowa (4-14 in conference last season) travels to play Wake Forest at 7 p.m. Both teams enter the matchup at 3-3 and neither is in the top 80 teams in the country in scoring. The last road game for the Big Ten on Tuesday sees Michigan (3-2) travel to Clemson (5-1) for a 9 p.m. game. The Wolverines have lost their last two games to Syracuse and the University of Texas-El Paso. Michigan is struggling after losing its top two scorers, Manny Harris and DeShawn Sims.

remaining, Dries scored for the Buckeyes to force overtime. Neither team scored in the five-minute overtime period, so the teams went into a shootout. OSU goalie Cal Heeter stopped all three of Alaska’s shootout attempts as Dries scored for OSU, giving the Buckeyes a 1-0 shootout victory. The game is considered a tie in the NCAA standings, but the shootout win benefits OSU in the conference standings. The Buckeyes will now turn their attention to Michigan as OSU starts a two-game series with the Wolverines on Friday. Michigan is second in the conference, but Albert said OSU will be up to the challenge if the Buckeyes play as a unit. “We have to play as a team. We can’t play as individuals,” he said. “If we do that, I hope we can get two wins next weekend.”

Five games will close out the challenge on Wednesday, including the premier inter-conference matchup of No. 1 Duke and No. 2 Michigan State at Cameron Indoor Stadium. The 9:30 p.m. tip-off is the final game of the challenge. Both teams made Final Four appearances last season, with Duke winning the National Championship. The Blue Devils return just two starters, Kyle Singler and Nolan Smith, from their title run. The only other game with a ranked participant Wednesday is No. 8 Purdue at Virginia Tech. Both teams are led by seniors. Boilermaker E’Twaun Moore and Hokie Malcolm Delaney are averaging 19.6 and 20.8 points per game, respectively. Indiana will travel with a perfect 6-0 record to Boston College Wednesday at 7:15 p.m. The Hoosiers bring sophomore Christian Watford and his 17.5 points a game to Boston with second-year coach Tom Crean. Boston College will be facing its second Big Ten opponent this season, having lost 65-55 to Wisconsin on Nov. 26. The Badgers will face a 4-1 North Carolina State team in Raleigh, N.C., at 7:15 p.m. Wisconsin finished last season with a loss to No. 12-seeded Cornell in the NCAA Tournament. The Wolfpack are led by freshman Lorenzo Brown and sophomore Scott Wood and their 12.6 and 11.6 points per game, respectively. Penn State will host Maryland in the final Big Ten home game of the challenge at 9:15 p.m. Wednesday. The game will be the last ACC/Big Ten Challenge for Nittany Lions senior point guard Taylor Battle, who is averaging more than 18 points per game. Maryland boasts a 5-2 record, with losses to then-No. 4 Pittsburgh and No. 16 Illinois.

coach Jim Tressel reaches to embrace senior linebacker brian rolle before saturday’s game against michigan at ohio stadium.

Seniors earn another Big Ten title, pair of gold pants moll y gra y Managing editor gray.557@osu.edu Four Big Ten titles. Four bowl game appearances. Four pairs of gold pants. And that’s just for some of the Ohio State senior players. Others, such as linebacker Ross Homan, have grabbed those accolades five times. “The most important one is never losing to Michigan as a Buckeye,” Homan said after the Buckeyes’ 37-7 win over the Wolverines on Saturday. “It’s incredible. And to have five rings, Big Ten championships, is just another accolade that I’m so blessed to be with these seniors … it’s a dream come true.” Homan said that before the game he was nervous because he didn’t want to be a part of the senior class that turned around the rivalry — OSU went into the game with six straight wins against Michigan. “But I’ve never lost to Michigan in my career. It’s pretty crazy,” he said, no longer nervous after helping to improve OSU’s run to 7-0 in “The Game” with eight tackles and a forced fumble.

Vintage Jewelry for Valentines

Coach Jim Tressel, who greeted all 24 seniors on the field before the game in recognition of their last game in Ohio Stadium, seemed equally proud of the group’s accomplishments. “They’re just first-class. They do things the way they are supposed to do them,” Tressel said. “They’re unselfish. They don’t care if they have the spotlight and all they want to do is help Ohio State.” But he warned that all of the rings and gold pants won’t do anything for the team come bowl season. “What our guys enjoy, and what our staff enjoys … is the journey,” Tressel said. “It’s the thrill of the challenge, and it’s hard to do.” A crucial member of the team in accomplishing this year’s goals is senior captain Cameron Heyward. “It’s just been a fun ride,” Heyward said. “I can truly say that I’ve enjoyed my four years to the fullest. I’ve just been blessed in so many different ways, but I’m looking forward to the future.” For Heyward and crew, there certainly are a few more goals to achieve. If the Buckeyes win a bowl game, the 2010 seniors will tie last year’s seniors as the winningest class in OSU history. “It would be crazy to get … that and to match us with those guys,” Homan said. “But we’re looking forward to see where we are headed and looking forward to the next challenge.”

sports Big day from ‘Boom’ boosts Buckeyes Herron tops 100-yard mark for third time in four games after huge second half

Junior Daniel “Boom” Herron marked his place in Ohio State history Saturday when he tied for the longest play from scrimmage on record. The play started as a 98-yard touchdown run from OSU’s own 2-yard line, but after a holding call, Herron’s run was capped at 89 yards. The third-quarter run tied a 1942 run by Gene Fekete against Pittsburgh. The run also set up a field goal to put the Buckeyes up 34-7 on the way to a 37-7 win over Michigan. Fans in Ohio Stadium didn’t approve of the holding call against receiver Dane Sanzenbacher during the play and booed as replays showed what they thought was a fair play. Herron took the call in stride. “It wasn’t really disheartening. It made a big play for us,” Herron said. “Anytime you can get out from (the 2-yard line), it’s good. Dane had a great block and we got the win, so that’s all that matters now.” After only one rushing yard in the first quarter for OSU, Herron’s 89-yard dash, paired with sophomore Jordan Hall’s 85-yard kickoff-return touchdown, made for a surprising turnaround in the second and third quarters of the game.

“It was an emotional game for everyone,” coach Jim Tressel said. “It was a strange game offensively.” Tressel led with the run after making some adjustments to the offensive line and rushing corps. “They were definitely stacking the box so we had to do something a little different,” Herron said. Starting a drive at the 2-yard line is also something that a team doesn’t hope to plan for, but Herron was undeterred by the difficult ball position. “Honestly, I told (sophomore) Zach Boren, ‘Man, I’m about to break this right now,’” Herron said. “I was patient with the offensive line … and I just had to make the safety miss, and it was gone from there.” Herron’s breakaway run came only a few minutes after he had a 32-yard touchdown. Not only did Herron score in his 11th straight game and grab a school record, he also broke the 1,000-yards mark for the season. With 175 yards against the Wolverines, Herron brought his season total to 1,068 yards. “It definitely was a dream come true,” Herron said. Reaching 1,000 yards “was one of my goals this year, and I’m very grateful for coach Tressel giving me the opportunity and with the offensive line doing a great job this year.” Senior left guard Justin Boren said having a running back go for 1,000 in a season is just what they want to see as a line. Boren wasn’t the only Buckeye impressed. “When I think about Herron’s 175 (yards), you can’t do it without him,” quarterback Terrelle Pryor said.

Gloves were part of custom-designed uniforms redemption for long. The referee gave Posey a 15-yard penalty for excessive celebration. The call wasn’t explained until later, when offensive lineman Mike Adams brought his hands together and flashed the stands a “Block O” and received the same penalty, which the referee described as “showing a sign to the crowd.” “They didn’t want any hand gestures to the crowd, just celebrating with your teammates,” Sanzenbacher said. “We should have learned

the first time they called us on it, but we didn’t.” During both subsequent kickoffs, the Buckeyes had to kick from their own 15-yard line instead of their 30-yard line. The gloves were a part of the Nike Pro Combat uniforms designed to honor the 1942 national championship Buckeye squad. Nike designed uniforms with a similar concept for several other teams and has used the gloves to send signals before, including when Alabama’s gloves displayed an “A” during last year’s BCS National Championship Game. “I think it’s safe to say that we will never wear gloves with anything on it again,” Sanzenbacher said.

OSU clinched share of Big Ten title Tressel’s only loss to Michigan in 10 tries. “If we were sitting here eight out of 10, we would have been unhappy. I promise you that,” Tressel said. Michigan still leads the series 57-44-6. Buckeyes clinch a share of the Big Ten Championship Winning the Big Ten title has been OSU’s goal all season. The Buckeyes now share the conference crown with Wisconsin and Michigan State, all finishing conference play at 7-1.

Can the rivalry exist if Michigan isn’t competitive? The Buckeyes held Michigan on Saturday to its lowest offensive output all season: seven points. But to the Buckeyes, it was all about preparing for “The Game” and the rivalry. The consensus was that the importance of “The Game” outweighs Michigan’s ability to compete, or lack thereof. “Michigan is among the elite programs, and will be, and you know their record will reflect that,” Tressel said. “Michigan will be back.”

Michigan coach Rich Rodriguez faces uncertain future With his job security already in limbo, the OSU blowout might have put the nail in the coffin for Rodriguez. In his three-year tenure at Michigan, Rodriguez has accrued a 15-21 record. In his 0-3 mark against OSU, the Wolverines have been outscored 100-24. “I worry about my future every day,” Rodriguez said. “It’s been a lot slower (coming) than I wanted, a lot slower than our fans wanted. I don’t blame them for that. But I’m not deterred by it.” This year, however, is the first

knows that all too well after a loss at Wisconsin knocked the Buckeyes from the top spot in the polls in mid-October. With no room for error, teams can’t afford to schedule a series of championship contenders. Finishing a battle-tested 8-4 doesn’t mean anything in college football. In basketball, where the regular season attracts as much attention as a 4 a.m. infomercial, a daunting non-conference slate helps prepare a team for the true test of the season, the NCAA Tournament. Some would argue that Boise State played a more competitive non-conference slate than OSU. The Broncos beat Virginia Tech (10-2) and Oregon State (5-6). Where Gee’s argument loses steam is with his suggestion of a “murderer’s row.” OSU’s best victory this season is at Iowa against a fiveloss Hawkeyes team that lost Saturday to lowly Minnesota (3-9). And the Buckeyes were lucky to escape Iowa City with a win. OSU feasted on Indiana (5-7), Purdue (4-8) and Minnesota. Would those bottom feeders hold their own on Boise’s blue turf? Only three Big Ten teams, including the Buckeyes, hold conference records better than .500. That isn’t indicative of the gauntlet Gee suggests. Utah was ranked No. 5 in the BCS standings when it hosted TCU on Nov. 6. The Horned Frogs won, 47-7. No, the rest of TCU’s schedule isn’t representative of the tests a national championship team should face between September and December. However, that’s partially the doing of the BCS. We leave it up to the voters to determine the most worthy candidates for the title game. Clearly, Oregon and Auburn are the most deserving teams and should they both win on Saturday, we’ll see the Ducks and Tigers play for the crystal football Jan. 10. Aside from those two schools, though, there aren’t any obvious favorites. That’s where the BCS system leaves us hanging. Every year during these autumn months, we prattle on about whether the “little guys” deserve the same opportunities that teams from BCS conferences are afforded. We’ll never have a definitive answer until an unheralded team such as TCU or Boise State gets a chance, and even then, arguments will persist. In a typical year with a handful of heavyweights vying for entry into the BCS Championship Game, the Broncos and Horned Frogs should end up where they belong: at best, a BCS bowl game against a formidable opponent. But in a year with only two teams from major conferences carrying unblemished records, it might be time to let TCU in and see what happens, should one of the undefeateds falter. Every team controls its own destiny — except for schools like Boise State and TCU, who are at the mercy of the BCS conferences. Even Gee should be able to see that through his little, round glasses.

“We’re not good enough to be the outright Big Ten champions and automatic bid to the Rose Bowl and all those things you shoot for,” Tressel said. “But we’re pretty fair, and I believe we’re a top-10 football team.” Had the Buckeyes beaten Wisconsin, they would have been outright Big Ten champions. “We wanted to win it outright, but still winning it, you can’t complain about that,” Stoneburner said. Captains Ross Homan and Bryant Browning are among 17 of the 24 seniors who have earned five Big Ten championship rings and five pairs of gold pants (earned after beating Michigan). “First and foremost, it’s important to never lose to Michigan as a Buckeye, which
