For Ohio State’s second year on semesters, Fall Semester means students missing out on extra downtime.

Some universities on semesters such as Bowling Green State University, Otterbein University and the University of Dayton have a fall break, which is an extended weekend during the month of October. OSU does not.

Some OSU students said a fall break would be beneficial in order to help relieve the stress of classes.

“It (would be) a good break after midterms to regroup and de-stress,” said Ryan Lovelace, a third-year in finance.

“After all those midterms, students stress out and they need to take a break from studying. I think it’s good for your mental health not to be worried about school all the time.”

Other students support the idea of a fall break because it would give them an opportunity to visit their families.

“Other students (at other schools) can get the opportunity to go home (on fall

You might not be able to go home until Thanksgiving because the timing is not right. If you have a couple extra days, your parents may make the trip to come and get you.”

Delaney said, though, even without a fall break, students can perform well.

“A fall break would have been nice, but I wasn’t expecting to have it … I think students can get used to it if they plan accordingly and don’t rely on it,” Delaney said. “I stay on top of things and try not to procrastinate. If you spend one of those Dylan Weaver / Lantern photographer

While the Oval can be a paradise for dogs begging for attention, one pet has been hogging the love.

When Michaela Wallace, a secondyear in animal science who aspires to be a large animal veterinarian, and Ryan Bridenstine, a third-year in molecular genetics, decided to get a teacup pig named “Calvin,” they had no idea how popular he would be with fellow students.

Wallace and Bridenstine, who are dating and live together, own Calvin together.

Calvin frequents the Oval, and Bridenstine said almost everyone has the same reaction.

“Mostly girlish screams, like, ‘Oh my God, can I touch your pig?’ Or they stand about 30 feet away and try to sneak a picture, it’s creepy,” Bridenstine said.

Wallace said the attention from the students is great, while Bridenstine said he was not ready for the reactions Calvin was going to bring.

“It’s unexpected,” Bridenstine said. “It brightens OSU’s campus one smile at a time.”

The decision to get a pig was not a difficult one for the couple.

“I grew up with farm animals and always wanted something that could be inside the house, so when I found out there were teacup pigs, I kind of fell in love with them,” Wallace, who grew up on a farm, said. “I also went online and decided that I really wanted one and he (Bridenstine) definitely convinced me to go get him (Calvin), so yep, then we got a potbelly pig.”

Wallace said owning a pig can be high maintenance, but having Calvin is almost like having a cat.

“Well, (Calvin) requires a lot more attention, he definitely is always needing someone there. Even if you’re not paying attention to him, he squeals at you. He is really the same as a cat because he is litter trained, loves to cuddle. He will crawl all over the place, and all over your face when you’re laying down,” she said.

Wallace said the most difficult part of adjusting to life with Calvin was training him to use a new litter box.

“He came litter box trained, but being in a new place, he has had to learn where his litter box was, and he throws a fit sometimes and will pee right in front of the litter box instead of in it,” she said.

A Twitter account, @OSU_Oval_Pig, advertises when students can find Calvin on the Oval.

Eerie author to deliver parting words at graduation Danielle Seamon Asst. arts editor seamon.17@osu.edu Tears from laughter were perhaps the most common reaction to R.L. Stine’s writing when he attended Ohio State. As his career developed, tears from terror might have been more his aim.

From satire at “The Sundial” to a sicker sense of humor in his award-winning “Goosebumps” series, Stine will help students make the “scary” transition from college to career when he addresses graduating students at the 2013 Autumn Commencement Dec. 15 at the Schottenstein Center.

The Bexley native has written more than 300 books for young adults, selling more than 350 million worldwide. He began writing “Goosebumps” books, his most famous children’s fiction series depicting characters in “scary” circumstances, in 1992, about the time many of the Autumn 2013 graduates were born.

Jill Londino, a fourth-year in strategic communication set to graduate in December, grew up reading the “Goosebumps” books and was “a big fan.” “(Stine) is definitely an unexpected choice (for commencement speaker) because, you know, maybe he’s not scholarly, but I think it’s a great pick. Hopefully he maybe reads an excerpt or two from his books,” Londino said.

Before his success in the genre of young adult horror fiction, though, Stine was a bit more “jovial.”

Stine served as editor-in-chief of OSU’s studentmanaged humor magazine, “The Sundial,” and wrote under the penname “Jovial” Bob Stine before graduating with a bachelor’s in English in 1965. Collin Gossel, a third-year in music composition and the current editor-in-chief of “The Sundial,” said it wasn’t uncommon for Stine to generate entire issues by himself.

“He was basically a legend,” Gossel said. “At

He would do pranks and things … to spread ‘The Sundial’ work.”

His most famous prank, Gossel explained, consisted of Stine running for Undergraduate Student Government as a write-in nominee the year he was scheduled to graduate, which makes a person ineligible to run. He received 1,200 write-in votes, according to OSU’s University Libraries blog.

“I decided to run for USG president as a publicity stunt to sell magazines,” Stine said in a 2011 email

to The Lantern. “I was a graduating senior. I knew I couldn’t legitimately run. Mostly, I wanted to see if, as a write-in candidate, I could sabotage the election.

“It gave me confidence that people enjoyed my sense of humor.”

“The Sundial” went on hiatus in the ‘90s, and Gossel credits Stine, who gave students advice and a donation, to help revive the publication. Although “The Sundial” does not print today, it maintains a website overseen by a group of editors and contributors.

Gooeyz, located at 1554 N. High St., announced Nov. 4 it was closing indefinitely.

The cheesiest part of South Campus Gateway might be gone for good.

Gooeyz, a bar and restaurant known for its specialty grilled cheese sandwiches located at 1554 N. High St., announced it was closed indefinitely via Twitter Monday evening.

Its Twitter account, @Gooeyz, tweeted “Gooeyz is now closed. Thank you for your patronage and all of the Cheezy Love!!”

Gooeyz then tweeted “We are evaluating all possibilities and options for Gooeyz so keep an eye out for us!”

Some Ohio State students were surprised at the announcement.

“That’s it? They didn’t give any warning? No that’s very shocking. That’s alarming actually. Very sad. I

would have gone before they closed but I didn’t know,” said Margaret Kennedy, a second-year in business.

Daniel Beckett, a fourth-year in chemistry, said he felt Gooeyz offered something out of the norm in terms of off-campus dining options.

“It kinda sucks, Gooeyz is awesome. I mean, it’s the only place that serves straight up just grilled cheese, so that’s kind of sad,” Beckett said.

Geoff McGinnis, a fourth-year in computer science and engineering, said he liked Gooeyz.

“It’s a shame. Not too many places you can get a good grilled cheese on campus, and you know, it was always a nice place to stop by whenever you were in the Gateway,” McGinnis said.

The announcement came less than two weeks after Charlie Bear: Land of Dance, a dance club located at 1562 N. High St. in the Gateway, confirmed it was moving to 2885 Olentangy River Road.

Charlie Bear general manager Matt Bean said Oct. 25 that the move was to “offer something more than we do now” with a better space. The owners of Charlie

Bear also owned Cadillac Boo’s at the Olentangy River Road location, so the decision was made to close Cadillac Boo’s and replace it with Charlie Bear.

OSU spokeswoman for Administration and Planning Lindsay Komlanc confirmed Oct. 25 Charlie Bear was in discussions with South Campus Gateway — which is owned by the university — about its lease, which was not set to expire until January 2016. Bean did not comment on the Gateway contract.

McGinnis said it could be rent at Gateway that’s driving businesses out.

“Maybe rent’s too expensive in the Gateway?

Maybe the price is driving people out. We’ll have to wait and see,” McGinnis said.

Beckett said the closures might cut down on foot traffic.

“That area’s going to be less crowded now,” he said.

Gooeyz’s owners did not immediately respond to emails requesting comment Monday night.

Gee advocates for Issues 50 & 51 in community meeting Logan Hickman Lantern reporter hickman.201@osu.edu Polls open Tuesday to vote on the proposed $9 million Columbus City Schools levy, and Ohio State President Emeritus E. Gordon Gee is on board despite some opposition throughout the city.

Gee was part of a discussion among local organizations, students and community members about the proposed levy Monday where he called for support of the levy because of its direct impact on OSU as well as the Columbus community.

“We (OSU) are the recipients of high quality public education. If public education is not of high quality, then we cannot continue to thrive in this institution — there is a direct impact,” Gee said.

Gee answered questions from supporters and skeptics among an audience of about 60 people at Gateway Film Center regarding the Columbus Education Plan.

The Columbus Education Plan includes Issue 50 and 51. Issue 50 aims to issue bonds for school construction efforts and to improve technology and includes a property tax levy to expand teacher training, fund childhood education and pay the independent auditor.

The plan also includes Issue 51, which would create a independent auditor position for the Columbus City Schools.

“You cannot have a great university without a great

OSU President Emeritus E. Gordon Gee speaks to students Nov. 4 at the Gateway Film Center about the proposed Columbus City Schools levy. city,” Gee said. “We cannot have a core of a city that is deteriorating in front of us, without all of us being affected.”

Gee said Issue 50, which demands a 24 percent increase on property tax of Columbus residents, is

necessary for a fresh start for the district following a 2012 report from The Columbus Dispatch that uncovered the manipulation of student data by district officials over the course of several years in efforts to improve the district’s grades during the annual assessment by the Ohio Department of Education.

“You cannot change on a dime, unless you have a dime to make that change,” Gee said. “You cannot pivot unless there is an ability to make that pivot with some resources.”

These resources generated by Issue 50 would pay for salaries, school supplies and operating expenses and would also go toward privately run charter schools within CCS. In addition to resources, Gee said “a level of faith and trust” from the Columbus community must be given to the failing district in order to see better results.

“Yes, mistakes were made and we admit that,” Gee said. “This is not simply about money — it’s about a series of fundamental cultural, social and economic corrective actions that I think really do make sense.”

Undergraduate Student Government President Taylor Stepp said he agreed with Gee that the potential passing of the CCS levy is important to OSU. “Ohio State University is an institution that is not just located in the city of Columbus — we are actually part of the lifeblood of the city of Columbus,” said Stepp, a fourth-year in public affairs. “With that being said, students have a stake in this.”

Stepp said he wants to make sure CCS students have the opportunity to attend OSU by ensuring their

standardized testing scores are high enough by means of the resources the levy will bring.

Yaves Ellis, a member of the Create Columbus Commission, which co-hosted the discussion, said the passing of the levy is imperative to the growth of Columbus.

“This is an issue that is about money as well as schools which are two very important topics when it comes to the growth of Columbus as well as the growth of our future,” Ellis said.

Miranda Onnen, a third-year in political science and economics who attended the discussion, said she plans to vote for the levy because of the investment it will have on her degree.

“It’s an investment in Columbus schools. I plan on graduating Ohio State and potentially going to school here after graduation,” Onnen said. “I want my degree from Ohio State to be worth more than it is now.

“By improving Columbus as a city — that’s one of the ways were are going to be able to do that — through the improvement of public schools. More kids from Columbus can come here, which will improve the profile of the school in the nation, which will improve my degree and help me find a job after graduation.”

OSU student beefs up involvement in meat education Dave Dziak Lantern reporter dziak.5@osu.edu One Ohio State student has been selected to educate others about an uncommon topic — beef.

Sierra Jepsen, a second-year in agribusiness and applied economics, was recently named to the 2014 National Beef Ambassador Program.

The National Beef Ambassador Program aims for young people to educate their peers and other consumers about beef and beef production, according to its website.

Jepsen is one of the five winners of the competition to become an ambassador and win $1,000. The others include Rachael Wolters of Tennessee, Emma Morris of California, Tori Summey of Arizona and Justana Von Tate of Texas, according to the NBAP website.

Jepsen said there are five states selected each year, and each state sends representatives to compete. Three women came from Ohio, and Jepsen was the final selection. There were 22 people from the selected five states who competed in September and were judged on criteria including media interviews, consumer promotions and issues response.

Sarah Bohnenkamp, executive director for American National CattleWomen, said the program is about more than just communicating with young people about beef.

“It’s about listening, demonstrating transparency and creating opportunities to connect the dots that drive beef demand,” Bohnenkamp said.

The program is managed by the National CattleWomen’s Beef Association, which is a networking group that keeps members up-to-date about the beef industry, and is partly funded by the Beef Checkoff Program, which collects money per head of cattle.

Brian Roe, the undergraduate director for the agribusiness major, said Jepsen’s involvement with NBAP “helps promote the industry when a time of diets and attitudes are changing.

“There’s only a small proportion of the U.S. that’s in touch with the industry,” he said.

Jepsen said there is some misconception about the beef industry because of this.

“The majority of the United States, as a consumer, we are three generations removed from the farm,” she said. “So they may not understand what we (people working in the beef industry) do on a daily basis.”

Jepsen said the misconceptions about the beef industry include some people’s beliefs about its nutritional value and about its source.

She said, though, beef contains 10 essential vitamins and nutrients, and that the perception that animals are mistreated is false.

“While these animals aren’t pets, they are very much so a part of our lives,” she said. “I know back home at my family farm, the animals eat before we eat.”

Jepsen added she loves the industry and talking to people about beef.

“Beef is pretty much a genetic thing for my family,” she said.

Jepsen, who is originally from Amanda, Ohio, a village in Fairfield County, comes from a family that usually raises about 70 head of cattle at a time.

“The beef industry is my life,” she said. “I now get the chance to give back to that.”

Roe, who also has Jepsen in a class this semester, said her giving back to the community is nothing new.

“Since she’s stepped foot onto this campus, she’s been seen as a leader,” Roe said.

Roe said Jepsen’s selection will also help the College of Food, Agricultural and Environmental Sciences by providing recognition — and proof OSU has a strong agricultural program.

Jepsen’s responsibilities as an ambassador will include blogging once a week, staying active on social media, participating in webinars, planning campus events and traveling across the country to help promote the beef industry.

“It’s about creating memorable experiences where people have the chance to voice their concerns and have open dialogues with someone who is credible and passionate,” Bohnenkamp said. “The myths are abundant, but we feel our ambassadors can help with the work they do.”

BuckeyeLink change allows students to set preferred names Stacie Jackson Lantern reporter jackson.2087@osu.edu Some Ohio State students may soon find themselves answering to a name they’re more accustomed to.

OSU has implemented a new system that allows students to change their legal name to a preferred name via BuckeyeLink, and the preferred name will then show up to advisers, on class rosters and on Carmen.

The system was initiated by the Office of Student Life and the Office of Diversity and Inclusion and developed by the University Registrar and the Office of the Chief Information Officer, according to a message from Vice President of Student Life Javaune Adams-Gaston.

The preferred name system was also a recommendation of the No Place for Hate Task Force as an attempt to achieve “a more open and welcoming campus community,” according to a Student Life Preferred Name frequently asked questions website.

A preferred name is a name that one goes by in day-to-day life.

OSU Student Life spokesman Dave Isaacs said the preferred name system allows students to be called by a name they identify with.

2A

In a variety of ways, it makes people feel more a part of the community and a part of being a Buckeye when they are known on a day-to-day basis by the name they have chosen.

Dave Isaacs OSU Student Life spokesman “In a variety of ways, it makes people feel more a part of the community and a part of being a Buckeye when they are known on a day-to-day basis by the name they have chosen,” Isaacs said.

Isaacs said there are three main groups the preferred name system affects.

The first group is made up of people who do not go by their legal first name.

The second group of people the preferred name system could affect is international students, who sometimes use an American or shortened name for convenience.

“We work very closely with International Affairs, and this is something that will definitely help out international students,” Isaacs said.

The third group of people is transgender students,

who might self-identify with a different name from their legal one.

The preferred name will not show up on transcripts, diplomas or enrollment or degree verifications, according to the frequently asked questions website.

Students can make the change on BuckeyeLink’s self-service page without any documentation or permission required. If no preferred name is selected, however, students’ legal names will remain the default.

Because BuckIDs could be used as a secondary form of identification in a variety of situations, a student’s preferred name will not appear on his or her BuckID. Otherwise, having two IDs with different names could present an issue, the frequently asked questions website said.

Isaacs said there is no limit on how many times a student can change his or her name on BuckeyeLink, but with regards to potential abuse, he said there is a trust system in place.

“I would certainly hope that people would act responsibly,” Isaacs said.

Although the new system is referred to as a policy on the frequently asked questions website, Isaacs said it is more of a procedure.

“It is a procedure that makes the (name) change happen,” Isaacs said.

Sudzy Steyn, a third-year in strategic communication, said the service is important for developing a relationship with professors.

“What people call you makes up a part of your identity and it makes your relationship with the professor more personal when they already know what you like to be called from the start,” Steyn said.

Steyn’s legal first name is Alastair, but he has gone by “Sudzy” ever since his father started calling him that as a nickname when he was a baby.

Steyn said he plans on using the system and changing his preferred name to Sudzy.

Guifei Fang, a third-year in accounting and an international student from China, said it would be easier for teachers to call him by his American name, Frank.

“It could be useful (to change my name). If I have time, then I will change it to Frank,” Fang said.

Jerica Stewart, a third-year in communication, said the system could be helpful but it’s not necessary.

“I don’t think it is that important to have because teachers usually ask students if they would rather go by a different name than what is on the roster when they take attendance for the first time,” Stewart said.

Isaacs said the preferred name system is not costing the university anything.

continuations weekends studying instead of going out, you can get your work done.”

Brad Myers, the university registrar, said the Council on Enrollment and Student Progress, which is in charge of creating and changing the OSU academic calendar, has discussed whether a fall break should be implemented at OSU. “Last fall, one of the things that I and many others heard frequently from students and from faculty was that the term felt really long,” Myers said.

“Part of it was just a transition. Instead of being in a 10-week-plus-finals term, you are now in a 14-weekplus-finals term … I think beyond that, folks typically felt there was a long period of time between Labor Day and Veterans Day, so October kind of dragged.”

Myers said creating the academic calendar involves balancing many interests, including the number of instructional days during each semester and the structure of Welcome Week.

“There is no perfect calendar,” Myers said. “In other words, there are always some trade-offs. We made the decision that we did not want any less than 70 instructional days (and) we agreed to protect some sense of Welcome Week.”

Myers said with residence hall move-in over the weekend and classes having often started on Wednesdays under the quarter system, the Wednesday start day was maintained to preserve Welcome Week.

Myers added that the council must also consider ending the semester with enough time for Autumn Commencement to run smoothly.

“It was a matter of kind of counting days, ending in early December such that there was still good enough processing time to be able to process the final academic checkout for students that were graduating,” Myers said. “Exams end early in that week and we are having commencement the following Sunday.”

The university approved the first five years of the academic calendar when it decided to switch to semesters, Myers said.

“It is already tentatively set … if we were going to change the calendar, we would need to start those discussions so that we would give a lot of notice to the people that were involved in the calendar to be able to know that we are going to change,” Myers said.

Even if that discussion started this semester, the decision of the university might not be enforceable until Fall 2015, Myers said.

He added that changes to the 2014 calendar are not necessarily off the table, but become less likely as the 2014-15 school year approaches.

Myers said OSU has looked at the academic calendars of other colleges when considering the idea of a fall break.

“I can report that we have tried to do a little benchmarking,” Myers said. “A lot of our peer institutions do in fact have a fall break, and it is typically a long weekend in October to try to provide a little bit of a break.”

Ty Anderson, a third-year in speech and hearing science, said upperclassmen are still getting used to semesters.

“It still feels like we are adjusting from quarters even though I was only on quarters for a year,” Anderson said. “The break would break up the long semester.”

Anderson said he hasn’t been able to make it home to Napoleon, Ohio, since before the semester began.

“I have not been home since July. If we had more long weekends, it would give me a better excuse to go home and give me more time to go home because it is a long drive,” Anderson said. “As far as negatives, I don’t see why we shouldn’t have one. I think everyone by then could use a break since the only day off we’ve had is Labor Day.” Anderson said more than 10 weeks into the semester, some students are getting tired.

“Semesters feel long,” Anderson said. “With the fall break, it would be nice to have a couple days off to do nothing. I feel like I have been on the go since August with constant assignments.”

Anderson also said professors could benefit from a fall break.

“One of my instructors just today was telling me about how he doesn’t even call the weekends ‘the weekend,’” Anderson said. “He calls them ‘pre-weeks’ because all he does on the weekend is prepare for next week’s class. I think it would be nice if they had a break and time to get their stuff together.”

Jenna Dolan, a second-year in marketing, though, said a fall break is not necessary.

“I don’t think we need a fall break,” Dolan said.

“We have a little break coming up in November with Veterans Day. I would rather get my stuff done and go into winter break earlier.”

Dolan added that the types of classes a student is enrolled in can influence the need for a break.

“It depends on your course load,” Dolan said. “If you have a lot on your plate you probably need a fall break more than other students.”

Myers said the council would seek student input if a change to the calendar was considered.

“If we were going to change the structure of the calendar, we would go to all the student government groups,” Myers said. “We would provide an opportunity for students to be able to provide input informally somehow. In other words, I think that it would be pretty openly acknowledged that we would want to hear from students.”

Calvin is a 5-month-old teacup potbelly pig that often hangs out on the Oval.

Pig from 1A Wallace and Bridenstine created the Twitter page for Calvin so students who wanted to keep tabs on Calvin could. The tweets range from what Calvin is eating to when he is going to the vet to when he will be headed to the Oval next, as well as a variety of pictures of him.

Mary Matusz, a first-year in international studies, said she went to the Oval one day just because she had heard he was going to be there.

“He’s so adorable. My roommate follows him on Twitter and she called me and was like, ‘I don’t know what you are doing with your life right now, but you need to see the Oval Pig,’” Matusz said.

Wallace said having Calvin around helps relieve stress.

“He just makes you feel better,” she said. “I know I have a bio exam tonight, but we have a pig. My life is OK.” Having a pet in college can be difficult for some students but Bridenstine said they make sure Calvin is comfortable when he and Wallace are away.

Author from 1A Although Gossel is not graduating this semester, he said Stine is a “great” choice to speak at commencement.

“He contributed a lot to our university and he’s making a good name for us in the world. A lot of us grew up with R.L. Stine, and now we are seeing him as we are going into our adult lives, too,” Gossel said.

Stine continues to write new additions to the “Goosebumps” series while releasing additional projects, including his autobiography, “It Came from Ohio,” and TV series “The Haunting Hour,” which is in its third season and won an Emmy Award for Best Children’s Series.

Preston Witt, a third-year master’s of fine arts student in English, called Stine “an inspiration for reading and writing” and said it is “pretty awesome” Stine will be speaking at commencement.

sleeping bag in there and a tea jug we fill up with hot water so he has something to cuddle against,” Bridenstine said.

Calvin is 5 months old and weighs about 7 pounds, and is expected to weigh about 40 pounds when fully grown in approximately three years.

“(Stine) has definitely paved the way for things like ‘Twilight’ and ‘Hunger Games,’” Witt said.

“He made this strange, middle-brow between humor and horror. He got you interested in not only one story, but a series, something you invested in time and time again.”

Stine might address many of his former readers when he returns to OSU in December, but there will be some graduates, like Zach Critser, who believed Stine’s books to be “too scary” when they were younger.

“I didn’t read (‘Goosebumps’) because they scared the crap out of me. I skipped straight to ‘The Hardy Boys’ instead,” Critser, a fifth-year in operations management and logistics management, said. “I think (Stine’s speech) will be pretty good. I know he’s from the area and he went to OSU. He’s a pretty creative guy, so I imagine he’ll think of something pretty good to say.”

The Lantern has an interview scheduled with Stine later this week.

Dr. Dog to ‘awaken moment’ at C-Bus show Breanna Soroka Senior Lantern reporter soroka.15@osu.edu If you think you’re familiar with the music of Dr. Dog, you’re in for a surprise at one of the band’s live performances.

“What we seek to create in a live show is more than just the presentation of songs, but the awakening of the moment,” said Scott McMicken, lead guitarist and vocalist of Dr. Dog. “Our live shows are not so much about delivering with faithful execution the song we’ve recorded and released, but creating a unique moment that you have to be there to experience.”

Dr. Dog — which includes McMicken, bassist and vocalist Toby Leaman, keyboardist Zach Miller, drummer Eric Slick, rhythm guitarist Frank McElroy and multi-instrumentalist Dimitri Manos — is scheduled to appear at Newport Music Hall Thursday, with doors opening at 7 p.m.

Part of the band’s ability to create this special moment with its audience is partly because of the members’ growth as performers in the past few years, McMicken said.

“In the last couple of years, the barrier between the live show world and the open-ended variety world of recording has started to dissolve a little bit,” McMicken said. “As a band, we’re starting to be able to express that variety that we’ve so naturally been able to do in the recording process, now in our live shows.”

This variety in both recording and performance makes it hard to pin a specific genre on the band, McMicken said.

“Not to be intentionally elusive or anything, but I see us as a band that’s kind of hard to describe,” McMicken said. “The notion of cultivating a really singular identity in our sound was not really that fulfilling of a goal for us.”

Instead, the members of Dr. Dog focus on songwriting in order to keep growing and to keep the music flowing, McMicken said.

“The main idea is the songwriting, creating a world in your imagination around that song you wrote,” McMicken said. “And the band has always been a vehicle to test out those explorations and those experiments in songwriting.”

Dr. Dog is slated to perform at Newport Music Hall Nov. 7.

Despite any musical experiments the band tests out, one thing is certain: Columbus is a frequent stopping point for Dr. Dog, McMicken said.

“Columbus has been pretty much a mainstay on every major tour we’ve done, whether it be opening or headlining,” McMicken said. “That’s because we’ve always had a great reception here — it’s one of those towns that has been supportive of the band going all the way back to the early days.”

Marissa Luther, marketing director for PromoWest Productions, said there’s a reason the band keeps coming back to the Columbus area.

“We love having the band, they have a great audience and they have a great live show,” Luther said. “We try to get them as much as we can.”

Meredith Richards, a third-year in respiratory

therapy, said Dr. Dog’s fan base in Columbus is actually how she came to know of the band.

“I didn’t really know who they were until I met some people from Columbus that are fans of them, and they’ve been to a bunch of their concerts,” Richards said. “I actually thought about going, but I’m still not sure if I will.”

The members of Dr. Dog are ready to bring their live show to Columbus once again and share their live experience with the fans, McMicken said.

“I can report that we’re all feeling super happy with the live set we have,” McMicken said. “We’re really excited to get out and play for our fans and see what they think about everything. It’s a nice time for the band.”

Dr. Dog tickets are available for $20 in advance and $22 the day of the show.

If the name “Kanye West” isn’t enough to convince you to go see a show, perhaps it’s best to rewind back to 2008, when West released his “808s & Heartbreak,” arguably one of the best albums across any genre of the 2000s, and definitely one of the best electronicinfused rap albums ever. Or let’s reflect on West’s over-the-top antics that have landed him in the media’s spotlight — including but not limited to his recent gaudy proposal to Kim Kardashian and his Twitter fight with Jimmy Kimmel.

What do these things have to do with seeing the rapper live? Not only is he talented (and never shy to remind everyone about it), his extreme lifestyle and actions are sure to translate into a powerhouse concert performance. This show will be one to remember, because that’s just West’s style.

The Yeezus Tour is set to stop in Columbus Friday at 8 p.m., with Kendrick Lamar also on the bill to perform. Tickets are available starting at $41.10 after fees on Ticketmaster, but students who entered and were selected in the D-Tix lottery at the Ohio Union can purchase tickets for $40. Additional D-Tix could open up in the event that not all lottery winners claim their tickets.

MGMT — Nov. 14 at Lifestyle Communities Pavilion If psychedelic electronic music is more your scene, consider waiting for MGMT to parade into town. Sometimes described as “bizarre,” this band is known for its mystical, electronic-driven music that has created a steady following since its formation in 2002.

Familiar to the concert festival scene, MGMT knows how to translate its psychedelic sound into visual appeal with colorful light shows and displays.

The band’s music is infectious and just inspires genuine joy for the listener, which can be the ideal draw of a concert in often-dreary November. Fans and newcomers alike will likely fall in love with MGMT at this indoor LC show.

Doors for the concert are scheduled to open at 7 p.m., with Kuroma set to kick off the show. Tickets are available for $32.50 in advance through Ticketmaster and $35 on the day of the show.

Manchester Orchestra — Nov. 17 at Newport Music Hall One of the best, truly talented indie rock bands to come through Columbus this fall is Atlanta-bred Manchester Orchestra. This band has been around for a little less than a decade, in which time they have released several EPs and three studio albums. The band’s name is a nod to the English city of Manchester, which is rich in musical history. Following in the footsteps of Manchester-born bands like The Smiths and Joy Division, Manchester Orchestra is a band composed of raw talent.

This show will draw a more mellow than wild crowd, but this is to the listener’s advantage. Go to this show ready to soak in the sounds of Manchester Orchestra and really connect to the music, crooned

to the audience through the voice of lead vocalist and rhythm guitarist Andy Hull.

Doors for the show are slated to open at 6 p.m., with The Front Bottoms and O’Brother scheduled to open the show. Tickets are available for $16.50 in advance through Ticketmaster or $20 on the day of the show.

Kevin Devine & The Goddamn Band — Nov. 19 at The Basement In a complete spur-of-the-moment decision, I attended a Kevin Devine show a few years ago at the Akron Musica. With just a few notes out of Devine’s mouth, it was clear that his last name is a fitting, happy coincidence: His voice is truly divine. His often-acoustic performances highlight his voice, which is a rare example of someone who sounds better live than on recording.

For this reason, Devine’s Columbus show is a must-see. Nothing does the singer justice like seeing him perform live. A show at The Basement is likely to be a more reserved performance than one at sister venue the LC, but it’s the perfect situation for an honest vocalist, which is what you find with singersongwriter Devine.

The doors at The Basement are set to open at 6:30 p.m., with Now, Now, Harrison Hudson and Van Dale as the opening acts. Tickets are available for $12.50 in advance through Ticketmaster, or $15 the day of the show.

Other shows to check out: Macklemore and Ryan Lewis (11/6), Sleigh Bells (11/9), Timeflies and Chiddy Bang (11/12), Matt Nathanson (11/13), Justin Timberlake (11/16) and Selena Gomez (11/23).

Timberlake’s concert is currently sold out, so you might have to do some digging to hear his flawless vocals and gaze upon his inspired dance moves.

Guide to College Fashion Grunge up your wardrobe to fit changing weather feel, button the flannel up and loop a neutral belt around your waist. To go more in the way of the hipster, throw on a loose-fitting, snarky tee under an open flannel paired with leggings and worn-in oxford flats.

Breanna Soroka Senior Lantern reporter soroka.15@osu.edu As the weather grows gloomier and the sky becomes a palette of dirty grays, don’t let your style fall into the terrifying territory of sweatpants tucked into UGG boots because you let your glum mood dictate your fashion choices. Instead, transform the melancholy chill of November into outfits that scream stylish and grungy without being too taxing on your morning routine.

Read on to find out how to channel your inner Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love in no time at all.

The more beat up, the better If you have a favorite pair of boots that are scuffed up and falling apart, don’t throw them away just yet. The best part about a grungy style is being able to wear clothes and accessories that wouldn’t be wearable otherwise.

Ripped jeans, tattered tights and combat boots with holes are all fair game and add an effortlessly cool aura to the overall look. The more destroyed elements you combine, the grittier your outfit will appear.

Flannel is always OK Whether it’s tied around your waist or draped over your shoulders, a button-up flannel shirt is quintessentially grunge. Show your personality with the colors showcased in the plaid pattern — a black and white checked print will give off more of an aloof, mod vibe, while red tones will warm up the style. The way you wear the shirt can also showcase your personal style so you don’t look like a carbon copy of anyone else. For a more high-fashion

Band tees, band tees, band tees Did your parents save their concert tees from when they were younger?

Repurpose these vintage treasures in your own wardrobe as layering pieces under destroyed denim jackets, military-style trenches and the ever-present flannel shirts (see above section). This piece can easily be the highlight of the outfit, so why not use it to showcase something you love? Instead of going to Hot Topic and buying the grungiest looking shirt of a band you’ve never heard of, go to your favorite band’s online merchandise shop and go crazy.

Tees, tanks and even cropped tops are all great choices because of their ability to be layered.

Roll right out of bed The best part of a grunge-based style is that you’re allowed to look disheveled; looking too prim and proper throws the whole look out of balance. So toss that hair up into a messy bun, or let your natural waves flow free. Smudge your eyeliner to your heart’s content and don’t worry about all that foundation, blush and lipstick. Don’t doll yourself up, and instead go with a mostly natural look. The key here is feeling comfortable with yourself — the ability to pull off a really gritty, grungy style is all in your confidence.

So on those days that you really can’t be bothered to dress up for the day ahead, trick everyone into thinking you did. Ironically, looking like you and your clothes are falling apart is one of the most put-together, fashionable looks out there. Just ask Kate Moss.

Jake CiMPerMan For The Lantern cimperman.1@osu.edu I knew it was finally time for me to step out of the shadows. I can no longer hide my past — I am the original Jimmy Kimmel feud target.

Admittedly, half my waking hours are spent pretending it’s 1977, and the other half are spent avoiding pop culture and celebrity gossip — but even I heard about Kanye West’s Twitter tirade directed at late-night talk show host Kimmel.

Kimmel’s exposure has exploded. This isn’t to say he was some anonymous television host before, but he was definitely the most viral last month. He was riding the coattails of Kanye West’s meltdown straight to the top of the latenight host power rankings (which don’t exist, but probably should). Now here I am, riding Kimmel’s coattails back into the nucleus of fame, fortune and anything else that can be exploited by a 17-year-old feud between a kindergartner and a self-deprecating sports radio host.

Admittedly, my recollection of the rivalry with Kimmel is pretty fuzzy. Thankfully, VCR tapes can be converted into YouTube video, and although our eyes seem terribly uncomfortable looking at anything less than 1080p, I can almost guarantee they will function properly after watching.

The video was shot during Kimmel’s stint at KROQ-FM in Los Angeles. Known as “The Sports Guy,” he opens the video saying the general manager of the Los Angeles Kings needs Kimmel’s help on the team. To train for his hockey debut, Kimmel plays goalie as I try to score.

My only true memory was being absolutely duped by the folks at KROQ, Kimmel’s radio station. To my recollection, I was asked if I wanted to shoot on the goalie of the Los Angeles Kings on their home ice, Great Western Forum.

The answer was obvious. However, even at 6 years old, it didn’t take long for me to realize this man with below-average balance and an unimpressive physique was simply masquerading as a professional athlete.

There is only one way I can demonstrate my frustration (and subsequent tantrum). Imagine you are given tickets to see The Rolling Stones, yet when the lights come on, the main act is

talk show host Jimmy kimmel was recently involved in a feud with rapper kanye West. revealed to be a mullet-clad divorced 40-yearold who serenades you to his very own unique version of “Wild Horses.”

I’ve struggled considerably over the past 17 years to come to terms with all the hurtful things Jimmy Kimmel said to me on that day. Being the most obvious that comes to mind, he said, “Go tell your mommy about that one” when he blocked my goal. More importantly, I’ve received zero recognition for my contribution as an actor.

Did I assist in catapulting Kimmel from sports radio personality to his role as a late-night host on a show that had 2.5 million viewers during the last week of October? There may be no hard evidence that suggests this is true, but then again, Kimmel continues to frequently feature child actors in his most popular skits, such as his most recent, where kids acted out an interview between Kanye and BBC Radio 1.

It’s a recipe for success, or tantrums, if you’re the “biggest rock star of them all,” Kanye West. That being said, my silence has grown too burdensome, and now I am seeking reparations to be paid, or simply some credit where credit is due.

Elliott: Offense has ‘great players all over’ daniel rogers Asst. sports editor rogers.746@osu.edu There is a famous saying in football, “Defense wins championships.”

This season, though, the Ohio State football team might have to rely on its offense if it wants an opportunity to play for the national championship.

Currently, the Buckeyes are ranked fourth in the BCS standings with just three games left to play in the regular season. OSU’s schedule is not doing it any favors, as no ranked opponents are scheduled for the rest of the year.

So to impress the voters in hopes of jumping a team or two in the BCS rankings, OSU needs to not only win, but look good doing it.

In their previous two games, against Penn State Oct. 26 and against Purdue Saturday, the Buckeyes’ average margin of victory was 52.5 points.

Freshman running back Dontre Wilson said the big wins were statements to the rest of the football world that OSU can play with anybody.

“People (are) down on us all the time. We’re undefeated, we’re blowing teams out,” Wilson said after the Buckeyes’ 56-0 win against Purdue. “Everybody (is) saying we don’t play much competition, but we’re still proving we can play good teams and blow other teams out.”

Junior linebacker Ryan Shazier said blowing teams out is important, but as long as the Buckeyes get the win, the final score doesn’t matter.

“I feel like it’s really important of us to dominate opponents, but still I feel like a win is a win. You do your job and show everybody that you’re doing your job,” Shazier said. “You really don’t have to blow people out.

They understand that you know what you’re doing and you have the players and the coaching staff to do what you gotta do then, that’s all that matters.”

Although OSU’s recent wins have been by large margins, it was a different case when Big Ten play started. In the first three conference games against Wisconsin, Northwestern and Iowa, OSU only won by an average of nine points a game.

The difference, junior wide receiver Evan Spencer said, is the offense’s ability to execute.

“We’re doing well, we’re executing really well. When we can execute like that and come out of the blocks like that it’s going to be a good day for us,” Spencer said.

Senior running back Carlos Hyde said it’s not that

“I don’t think it’s me as much as it is the other guys,” Heuerman said. “Like I’ve said before, having a running back like Carlos Hyde and a quarterback like Braxton Miller and some of our offensive weapons — Dontre Wilson, (junior wide receiver) Devin (Smith) and Evan (Spencer), ‘Philly’ Brown — the defenses, they’ve gotta respect all of them … Having all those guys being so productive, it puts me in a position where I can make my block easier sometimes. It makes my route easier.”

Freshman running back Ezekiel Elliott, who tallied 60 total yards and a touchdown Saturday, said playing against OSU has a “pick your poison” feel to it.

“We just have great players all over the field so it’s like pick your poison, we can move the ball around.

Anyone who touches it can score,” Elliott said.

Although against the Boilermakers it was junior cornerback Doran Grant who kicked off the scoring with a 33-yard pick-six, the OSU offense might need to put up big numbers to impress voters as the season wears on.

The Buckeyes have the week off but are set to continue their push for a spot in the BCS National Championship game when they take on Illinois Nov. 16 in Champaign, Ill.

Kelly Roderick / For The Lantern

Sophomore guard Amedeo Della Valle (33) watches his shot during an exhibition game against Walsh Nov. 3 at the Schottenstein Center. OSU won, 93-63.

At times during the 2012-13 Ohio State basketball season, Amedeo Della Valle wasn’t sure if being in Columbus — more than 4,400 miles from his hometown of Alba, Italy — was for him.

“I’m here by myself,” Della Valle said at OSU Media Day Oct. 10. “I don’t have family with me, so it’s not the easiest thing to do.”

The sophomore sharpshooter spent the summer back home, earning Most Valuable Player honors during the U20 European Championship after averaging 13.0 points, 3.7 rebounds and 1.4 steals per game while playing with his Italian team. Della Valle said although his lack of playing time last season was tough, he decided to come back because of assurances from the coaching staff and the relationship he has with his teammates, who he calls his “best friends.”

“Coach (Thad) Matta’s a great coach, not just as a coach, as a person (too), and coach (Chris) Jent was here too, so sometimes when I wasn’t playing, I used to talk to them and be like, ‘What am I doing wrong?’”

Della Valle said at Media Day. “They would tell me, ‘It’s not just about being ready today. We know what kind of player you can be, so just work hard on your game.’”

Jent has since joined the Sacramento Kings of the NBA, but Della Valle continued to work hard in the

offseason. It paid off, as he logged 21 minutes in OSU’s 93-63 exhibition victory over Walsh Sunday, totaling 13 points.

“I like his confidence. Amedeo is a young man who cares about the welfare of the team,” Matta said after the win. “He wants to do everything he can do to help this team win; I put that in higher regard than a lot of things that happen.”

The 6-foot-5-inch 190pound sophomore has never been shy about taking his shot when it is there, hoisting 26 3-pointers last season while only averaging 7.2 minutes per game. Spending the majority of his time toward the end of the bench during his freshman year was because of one simple thing.

“Definitely defense,” Della Valle said at Media Day. “Definitely wasn’t surprised that defense was something I had to work on, because I’ve never been a great defender my whole life. You just look at your teammates and what they do, and how they do it, and you just try to see yourself doing that.”

His defense might have improved, but the Buckeyes could need Della Valle’s help offensively more than they think as they try to replace 2012-13 Big Ten leading scorer Deshaun Thomas, who left following the 2012 season for the NBA. Junior forward LaQuinton Ross said he thinks Della Valle can certainly be that guy because of how he’s always been able to score.

Even without game, could be deciding weekend for OSU football As we head into the 11th week of the college football season, the No. 4-ranked Ohio State football team is facing what is perhaps the most important weekend of its season — despite the Daniel Rogers fact that the rogers.746@osu.edu Buckeyes aren’t even playing.

Next weekend, OSU will aim to get healthy and stay refreshed for the home stretch of the season with just three regular season games remaining.

But although making sure players like sophomore right tackle Taylor Decker and junior linebacker Curtis Grant are fully healthy is vital to the Buckeyes’ success for the rest of the year, that isn’t what makes this weekend so important.

In week 11, there are two top-10 matchups, and another game that might be arguably more intriguing.

the offense has taken the next step but that it is finally playing up to its expectations.

“I expect this from the offensive group: just come out and be explosive all day,” Hyde said. “Just come out and put up points and put up yards and that’s what I expect from us.”

Hyde is the Buckeyes leading rusher on the season, tallying 701 yards and seven touchdowns on the ground this year.

In their second season under coach Urban Meyer, the Buckeyes are averaging 48.2 points per game, up 11 points from the undefeated 2012 season.

Meyer said his offense is “pretty close” to living up to the standards he set before the season.

“The offensive line is blocking people, there were a bunch of targets. (Junior tight end Jeff Heuerman) had a great day today … Push the fast rewind button to one year ago facing the same team. Who are you going to throw the ball to? We don’t know,” Meyer said. “Now you got five, six targets that you actually want to see the ball in their hands, and they’ve earned that right.”

Heuerman, who almost doubled his season total of receiving yards against the Boilermakers with a five catch, 116-yard performance, credits his career day to the number of weapons OSU has on offense.

sports Brazil deaths cause concern for World Cup, Olympics Sports Columnist

Note to readers: this story contains graphic and violent imagery.

Brazil is home to the most successful national soccer team in history. As the only team to Tim Moody play in every moody.182@osu.edu FIFA World Cup, the Brazilians have won five titles, one ahead of Gli Azzurri from Italy.

The country has fielded some of the greatest names in the sport’s storied history: from arguably the greatest player ever, Pelé, whose real name is Edson Arantes do Nascimento, to the likes of Roberto Carlos and Roberto Rivelino. Today, the squad features the phenomenon that is Barcelona forward Neymar da Silva Santos Júnior, as well as stars like Chelsea midfielder Oscar dos Santos Emboaba Júnior and Paris Saint-Germain defender Thiago Silva.

The history is there; the talent is there. Brazil is my favorite to win the 2014 World Cup on home soil, but in what world is it acceptable to host one

Della Valle from 6A “I would say Amedeo has probably been one of the most consistent guys since he’s been here as far as scoring the ball,” Ross said at Media Day. “What he did overseas this year with his Italian League was incredible … I think he’s one of the best scorers.”

Della Valle made three of the Buckeyes’ four 3-pointers in Sunday’s win, something Matta said he was pleased with, even though shooting from the behind the arc might not be what the team is looking for a lot this year.

“Obviously shooting the ball is very, very important to us in terms of percentage and that sort of thing,” Matta said. “Fortunately for us, (Amedeo) knocked down some threes. But we didn’t attempt a lot of them, which is good.”

“I feel like that’s not the plan, or something we are focused on. I think we are focused on running the right play, and taking the right shots,” Della Valle said Sunday. “You don’t want to take a forced three — I

of the largest international affairs in a city rampant with near-warfare between police forces and drug lords?

In recent years, numerous stories have come out of Brazil about gruesome murder and corruption. Some might say these issues have nothing to do with soccer, and will not affect the tournament itself.

The thing is, the sport has begun to play a central part in these crimes.

Back in July, 20-year-old referee Otávio Jordão da Silva stabbed Josenir dos Santos Abreu, a 30-year-old Brazilian soccer player, during a match. The player died on the way to the hospital, but the violence goes doesn’t end there. In retaliation, fans came onto the field and stoned Silva to death, before beheading him on the pitch.

Two dead because of a game — no good reasons.

Fast forward to Oct. 29 in Rio de Janeiro. The wife of former Brazilian soccer player João Rodrigo Silva Santos made the most horrifying discovery imaginable.

Santos had not returned home from work the night before and his wife found his rucksack outside their front door. In the bag was Santos’ severed head.

The first crime, the double murder on a soccer pitch, was a direct result of the sport. The death of Santos might not have any direct ties to his time as a soccer player, but the point is that the violence in Rio de Janeiro is out of hand.

I never would have heard of these crimes had they

mean the threes that I shot, I was open, so I had to take those shots.”

At Media Day, Matta said replacing Thomas is going to be a team effort this season. That was clear in the win against Walsh, as Della Valle was one of five players who scored in double figures.

“I don’t think we necessarily need somebody that shoots 20 shots per game or averages 30 points,” Della Valle said. “But I feel like we have enough scorers, enough players to make plays.”

Della Valle believes he is one of those players, and said he is excited to be on the court more this winter after a “fun” first year as a Buckeye.

“I’m lucky,” Della Valle said at Media Day. “It was definitely fun, and it was definitely a good freshman year. It helped me a lot. I feel like if I would have played more, I would have never realized what I need to work on more, and I would have never been motivated like I was last year to push myself.”

The Buckeyes are scheduled to open their regular season Saturday at the Schottenstein Center against Morgan State at noon.

The thing is, the sport has begun to play a central part in these crimes.

I would love an opportunity to attend a World Cup, especially in a place which such a rich history in the sport. That said, I would not even consider an all expenses paid trip to the 2014 tournament.

The risk is high, and the reward cannot compare.

FIFA has made some questionable decisions in

OSU from 6A Oklahoma visited Waco, Texas, in 2011, but that was when the Bears had eventual Heisman Trophy winner Robert Griffin III to lead the way.

The Crimson Tide, who have already beaten two ranked teams this year, have also struggled in recent years against their opponent this weekend. Since 2003, Alabama is 4-7 against LSU, including going 1-4 in BryantDenny Stadium, where this year’s game will be played.

Although the Tide have won the previous two matchups with the Tigers, including a 21-0 victory in the 2012 BCS National Championship Game, it remains to be seen if they can rise above their struggles against LSU. Then there’s Oregon.

In 2012, the then-No. 2 Ducks were 10-0 in early November and looked to be on their way to a shot at the national championship.

However, Stanford had different plans, with the

recent years, like rewarding the 2022 World Cup to Qatar, but there is no decision more absurd than allowing this event to take place in Rio de Janeiro.

Rio de Janeiro is also set to host the 2016 Summer Olympics.

While these stories are horrifying, I truly fear for the stories that will likely come out about crimes during the tournament. From locals in Rio, to those traveling in from around the world, how can one not fear for his or her life?

It is always said November is the most important month in college football, with many teams facing the meat of their conference schedule. Last season alone, three of the teams that were ranked in the top five in the BCS standings entering week 11 lost, including both Alabama and Oregon.

This weekend is vital to the Buckeyes national title aspirations. OSU has been doing its part by winning all of its games so far, but unless something can happen in the next couple of weekends, the Buckeyes will be on the outside looking in for the national championship.

So if a few top teams fall this weekend, the Buckeyes could come out big winners ­— even on a weekend in which they don’t play.
