A new proposal will extend consumer protections outlined in President Barack Obama’s health care law to students purchasing health insurance plans through their college or university, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services announced in a conference call Wednesday. Steve Larsen, director for the Center for Consumer Information and Insurance Oversight at the department, said the proposed regulations would prevent university and college insurers from: • denying coverage based on pre-existing conditions to students age 19 or under • placing lifetime limits on health care • dropping coverage due to an error in paperwork • using less than 80 percent of revenues generated by premiums on health care “One of the most vulnerable groups of Americans in our old health insurance system is young adults,” Larsen said.

Aaron Smith, co-founder and executive director of Young Invincibles, an advocacy group for young adults, said the proposals represent a “major victory” for young people. “This win happened because young people spoke up,” Smith said. Larsen said the regulations, Steven bloom if finalized by the department, would not take effect until the beginning of the 2012-13 academic year. “We wanted to get it out now to give the universities a heads up as to what’s coming,” Larsen said. Steven Bloom, director of government relations at the American Council on Education, said some insurers have already raised premiums, even though the proposals would not go into effect until next year. “We hope this isn’t a trend,” Bloom said. At Ohio State, about 15,000 students are enrolled in the comprehensive health insurance plan, and

about 4,000 enroll in the supplemental plan in addition to the insurance they already have, said Diane Plumly, director of Student Health Insurance. According to the Student Health Insurance website, the annual premiums for the comprehensive plan and the supplemental plan are $1,629 and $187, respectively, for domestic students for the

aaron Smith

2010-11 school year. Plumly said the student insurance program operates on about $32 million a year. “That is used to cover costs of providing health care to students, claims and administrative costs,” Plumly said. The proposed regulations will not have much of an effect on OSU’s plans, Plumly said. “We offer a pretty comparable plan,” she said.

Caution tape, boarded windows and smoke-blackened apartments welcomed students returning to their Campus View Village Apartments on Ohio State’s Newark campus after Tuesday night’s fire. Chase Collier, an undecided first-year at the Newark branch, said the fire consumed two apartments. Collier’s apartment and the one above his were significantly damaged after a cooking accident in Collier’s apartment. Newark Fire Department Assistant Chief Bill Spurgeon said a stove was the cause of the fire. Collier, who was driving back from a snowboarding trip, said he received calls from concerned friends asking if he was OK. He said he was confused until someone told him about the fire. “We had to go to the gym for three or four hours,” Collier said. “After that, the Red Cross paid for our hotel.” Besides the free hotel stay, the American Red Cross of Licking County provided $110 to each student to purchase essentials, Collier said. Barbara Collier, Chase’s grandmother, visited after the fire and called her grandson’s apartment a “total loss.” In all, the ﬁre moved 40 students from their apartments. Of those 40 students, 26 stayed in a hotel for the night. Ben Stevens, a first-year in fashion retail, said he lost almost everything in his apartment. “I heard a huge bang,” Stevens said. “The fire (was) up to the ceiling and burned a hole in the ﬂoor.”

burnt debris, including a chair and a refrigerator, is piled near a side entrance to the Campus View Village apartments on Ohio State’s newark campus Wednesday afternoon after OSU workers began cleanup following a fire tuesday evening. Stevens said everyone in the complex evacuated before firefighters arrived. Everything in his apartment was either wet or blackened by smoke, Stevens said. “It was like walking through fog,” Stevens said. Stevens’ footwear situation reﬂected his lack of belongings. After being interviewed, he skidded through

the icy, below-freezing apartment parking lot in pink Croc sandals and socks en route to his car. Spurgeon estimated the fire caused $50,000 in damages, calling the damage “significant.” The complex is partially uninhabitable and fire officials are unsure when the damaged apartments will be livable again, Spurgeon said. The two-building apartment complex

houses students attending OSU’s Newark campus and the Central Ohio Technical College. Collier said his apartment and the one above it are uninhabitable. He said the damage will displace a total of 14 students for a while. Despite the fire, Collier said he attended classes on Wednesday. But not before visiting Wal-Mart to buy a notebook and pencils.

Students and employees of local hospitals and universities can no longer look forward to riding Central Ohio Transit Authority’s Health-Education Line, a new line originally planned for September. The Ohio Department of Transportation decided Tuesday to rescind $10 million that was previously set aside for the New Service Starts program. Nine programs, including COTA’s Health-Education Line, have been cut from the budget, said David Rose, public information officer for ODOT. COTA spokesperson Beth Berkemer said COTA cannot move forward with the Health-Education Line as planned. “We are disappointed. Whenever it comes to losing the opportunity to provide additional service, we’re always going to be disappointed,” Berkemer said. “We wish that we could provide this service still, but at this point we just can’t.” The Health-Education Line was going to be a 9.6-mile route that connected local universities and hospitals to one another. The line would have connected OhioHealth at Riverside Methodist Hospital, the OSU Medical

campus Eater pursues dream, stomachs childhood trent barter Lantern reporter barter.1@osu.edu Pacing back and forth, listening to 50 Cent on his iPod, stretching his arms and legs like a sprinter before an Olympic event, Scott Bickel prepared himself for an eating challenge Saturday in The Lantern newsroom. Bickel, 20, from North Royalton, Ohio, just south of Cleveland, has been competitively eating since last August, when he walked into 82nd Street Grill and Pub in North Royalton and devoured a 4-pound burger in seven minutes. His inspiration comes from watching last year’s Coney Island Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest on July 4. Ever since, he has been pursuing a championship for the city of Cleveland. “It’s weird, competitive eating sounds so stupid, but I look at the bigger picture, bringing a championship to the city and just bringing some excitement to the town,” Bickel said. Saturday was not one of Bickel’s better days as he put down “only” 37 chicken tenderloins from Raising Cane’s, roughly 5 pounds of food, in 30 minutes. To anyone else, 37 chicken tenders might seem like a lot, but not compared to his past feats. “It took so long to chew; when I hit the first one I knew it was going to be a long 30 minutes,” Bickel said. Some of his feats include consuming the entire “2 for $20” menu at Applebee’s (roughly 13 pounds of food and more than 23,000 calories), eating 5 pounds of beef and mashed potatoes in six minutes at Beef ‘O’ Brady’s, and conquering the 5-pound grilled cheese Melt Challenge at Melt Bar and Grilled in 18 minutes. It took “Man v. Food’s” Adam Richman nearly an hour to accomplish the 13-cheese sandwich. Bickel’s next competition is scheduled for Feb. 19 at Hang Over Easy, where he will attempt to eat a 12-egg omelet totaling 7-and-a-half pounds, according to Hang Over Easy. Bickel did not always have the desire to be a competitive eater. Bickel played four sports in high school, taught himself how to play the piano, how to do card tricks and wrote a published book by the age of 19. The book, titled “The White Picket Fence,” tells a story of a couple that falls in love at an early age and is reunited years later. According to Amazon, the book is 114 pages, sells for $17.99 and targets an audience ages nine to 14. The book, which he finished in a 52

Bickel will be at Hang Over Easy on Feb. 19 to attempt to put down a 12-egg, 7.5-pound omelet. days, draws from some of his own experiences. Bickel said the book is “loosely based on his own life.” Bickel, born to drug-addicted, abusive parents, has undergone rough times. From age 2 to age 5 he went from one foster home to the next, being separated from his older brother and two sisters. Finally, when Scott was 5, Norman and Patricia Bickel adopted him into their family. “They were everything you could ask for, for parents. They really took me in, took care of me, loved me,” Scott said. The tough times did not end there, as Scott was medically discharged from the U.S. Marines Corps because of back problems after graduating atop his class.

“It’s something I saw myself doing for 20 years,” Scott said. Shortly after being discharged, Scott started his goal of becoming one of the world’s best competitive eaters. “The first month I’d say I probably did at least 100 hours between doctors, physicians, my own research and my own experimenting,” Scott said. When Scott first began his training regimen, his parents were a bit worried. “We were concerned about his health or choke (sic), anything a parent would normally be concerned with,” Norman said. Worry quickly turned into support. “He wants to accomplish something; I’m certainly

not going to hold him back from something he sets his heart on,” Patricia said. The Bickels said Scott showed signs of his future in competitive eating as a child. “Oh yeah, he used to eat a lot as a kid,” Patricia said. For Scott, it’s not just about stuffing his face full of food. “A lot of these eaters are so fat, so obese, and they’re sending the wrong message,” Scott said. “Man, if you’re going to do this to your body, do it the right way.” Scott is referring to his own training routine that includes training for six days a week, running five to 10 miles every day, working out and chugging as much water infused with Gatorade powder as possible. The water helps stretch out his stomach and he typically chugs about three gallons a day and as many as five gallons a day in the days leading up to a big event. He only eats grapes and carrots, and drinks water in the few days before an event. The atmosphere around Bickel’s events are “pretty charged,” Gemmel said. Scott bounces up and down like a mad man, listens to Linkin Park, Eminem and even Christian rap on his iPod. Bickel asks his parents not to come to his events and tries to tune out the crowd around him. “I never know what people are saying or screaming. I try not to even look at the crowd,” Bickel said. Not everyone initially had his back, but now he has many supporters. “He just started pursuing his dream and he’s been going with it and he’s definitely gone a long way and I’m proud of him,” said Orest Danylewycz, a first-year in chemical engineering went to high school with Bickel. The doubters still fuel Bickel. “Whenever you’re doing something, you’re always going to have people that love you and hate you,” Bickel said. “I’ve never let that stuff bother me my whole life, it just motivates me more.”

COTA from 1A

Other Ohio transit authorities had money rescinded Center, Columbus State Community College, Columbus College of Art and Design, Grant Medical Center, Franklin University and Nationwide Children’s Hospital. Included in the original plan, COTA was going to purchase four new buses and hire roughly 20 new drivers. “We hope to revisit this in the future because it is a really great and unique opportunity to have this service out there,” Berkemer said. “At this point in time we cannot move forward with it, without that funding support.” Berkemer said she did not know when they might revisit the possibility of adding the Health-Education Line. “I have no idea when we would be able to consider this, and at this point in time, it’s really going to come down to funding and when we are able to find funds that we can allocate to this project.” Last fall, former Gov. Ted Strickland pledged $50 million a year to public-transit agencies for the next three years. Rose said for the 2011 ﬁscal year,

Healthcare from 1A

Professor says proposal could raise health care premiums “The goals of the HHS are consistent with our goals.” OSU does not deny coverage based on pre-existing conditions, Plumly said. But the plan does have a lifetime cap of $500,000, and annual limits on physical therapy, chiropractic services, prescription drug coverage and some preventative services. Under the proposals, annual limits on care will be phased out and all preventive care must be free. Also in the proposal is a regulation preventing insurers from using less than 80 percent of revenue generated from premiums directly on health care costs. Plumly said that percentage, called a medical loss ratio (MLR), at OSU is “close to that.” “Some years it’s more, some years it’s less,” Plumly said. “I would say the average is just below.” Eric Seiber is an assistant professor of health services and management policy in OSU’s College of Public Health. He said the measure is likely to raise premiums nationally. “Anything that increases health care coverage increases premiums,” Seiber said. “It’s a trade-off between access versus costs.” Seiber said premiums will increase because insurers kept them “artificially low” by dropping coverage for a few people when one person needed health care.

however, ODOT decided to use only $40 million of the $50 million pledged. Rose said the New Service Starts program was budgeted to be $10 million of the $50 million, and the entire program had been cut. “Just the $10 million is currently being rescinded. None of the new services have started,” Rose said. Rose also said that in the following two years, ODOT will only use $20 million annually, instead of the $50 million pledged. The $20 million a year, although less than promised, is a 41 percent increase from the 2009 budget. The three-year budget has now been reduced from $150 million to $80 million. Rose said the $10 million that was rescinded had not yet been awarded. COTA was originally awarded about $3.2 million through the New Service Starts program. Other organizations that had their program money rescinded include the Greater Cleveland Regional Transit Authority, the Southwest Ohio Regional Transit Authority, the city of Lancaster, the Portage Area Regional Transportation Authority, the Western Reserve Transit Authority, the Greater Dayton Regional Transit Authority, the Community Action Agency of Columbiana County and the Butler County Regional Transit Authority.

But the effect at OSU will not be significant, Seiber said, because the increase in costs for the insurers will be spread out among more than 15,000 students. “There’s such a big pool of students,” Seiber said. “It’s probably going to affect us the least out of almost any university.” The Lantern reported on March 30 that OSU’s tuition and fees increased by $741 from autumn 2009 to autumn 2010. “If this is going to increase expenses by $1.5 million, it will raise premiums $100 (for the year),” Seiber said. “Compared to tuition, that’s not much.” Kristin Hogan, a third-year in human resources, has a supplemental plan and said she would be willing to pay $50 more per year in order to extend benefits to more people. “If it’s going to help people, I’m all for it,” Hogan said. “Health care in America sucks right now, and we need to start somewhere.” On Jan. 19, the new republican-led House of Representatives voted to repeal the health care law along party lines, 245-189. The Senate, where democrats hold a slim majority, struck down the repeal, 51-47. Ohio Rep. Steve Stivers and Sen. Rob Portman, both first-term republicans, voted for the repeal measure. Sen. Sherrod Brown voted against it, joining fellow democrats and one independent. House majority leader Eric Cantor, R-Va., told reporters on Tuesday he expects the House to vote next week on a measure prohibiting government money from being used to carry out the law.

Suspected credit card misuse lands student organization’s adviser on ice KYLe KnOX Lantern reporter knox.154@osu.edu An Ohio State faculty member is on paid administrative leave after allegations that he misused a student organization credit card. Brett Mayo, adviser of Students for Recycling, is accused of charging personal expenses to an emergency credit card. Mayo said in an e-mail that he was asked not to discuss the issue, and declined comment.

According to a Jan. 6 OSU police report, Joanna Podrasky, president of Students for Recycling, reported $2,900.55 missing. No charges have been filed. Because of the pending investigation, Podrasky declined comment on the issue, and an OSU police search warrant was not available. Mayo is also the associate director of Energy Management and Sustainability for the OSU Office of Student Life. Molly Calhoun, assistant vice president for Student Life,

said Mayo has been an OSU employee since 1999, and has been on paid administrative leave since Jan. 7. Mayo, a drummer for local band The Toll, was featured in a Lantern article about the Newport Music Hall in 2001. The band participated in “Andyman-a-thon,” a memorial concert for the late local radio personality, at the Lifestyle Communities Pavilion on Nov. 24.

Marsalis

Jazz musician Delfeayo Marsalis combined the works of jazz musician Duke Ellington and William Shakespeare for his production “Sweet Thunder: Duke and Shak.” Jessica Shambaugh Lantern reporter shambaugh.14@osu.edu Delfeayo Marsalis is scheduled to perform his take on Shakespeare through the music of Duke Ellington, “Sweet Thunder: Duke and Shak,” with his band on Saturday at the Southern Theatre. Marsalis, a New Orleans native, is a jazz musician and composer best known for his trombone playing. After composing and recording four albums of his own, Marsalis turned to Ellington’s work as a jazz pianist and bandleader to demonstrate his audio interpretation of Shakespeare. Marsalis said he chose to mix the works of these two because he “couldn’t think of a better pair.” “What I found is there are a number of similarities between Ellington and Shakespeare,” Marsalis said. “For example, obviously their level of genius and creativity. Neither was university-trained, but their works somehow perplexed all the university’s wit.” He described this performance as music with “theatrical drama.” “We’re taking the best of Ellington and the best of Shakespeare and we’re combining them to tell a great and compelling story,” Marsalis said. “We’re taking two artists who seem very different and we’re just showing that they’re actually the same.” Marsalis said the actors will portray the key characters of Shakespeare, such as Puck, Othello and Cleopatra; these actors will serve as a “prologue for the music.” He said the characters will dance styles that incorporate tango and swing. Graeme Boone, a professor in Ohio State’s School of Music, said that combinations like this aren’t at all unusual. “If you think about rap as part of a grand interlocking set of poetic traditions through oral performance, that goes back to subculture going all the way back to Africa and Europe,” he said. “I mean, why can’t that culture take advantage of whatever materials are at hand? Why not Shakespeare?” Boone also said there was a man named Brother Blue in Massachusetts who had been rapping Shakespeare from the mid-1980s until his death in 2009. Marsalis was raised with music as a constant

12 ‘The Room:’ so bad that its fans can’t help but love it continued as Trombone on 7A

Kelsey Givens Lantern reporter givens.64@osu.edu Movies like “The Rocky Horror Picture Show” garner audience participation and mass followings thanks to their fantastic plots. “The Room” has received the same response at The Drexel Theatre and nationwide, but for a different reason. “It’s the best worst movie you’ll ever see,” said Michael Rousselet, a contributor to 5-Second Films, a website that produces 5-second films every week day. He would know — he was the spark that began the cult-like following that surrounds the movie. Thomas Davis, an assistant English professor, agrees with Rousselet. “It’s like watching a car wreck; you can’t stop watching,” Davis said. The film, as described on the official movie website, theroommovie. com, is an “electrifying American black comedy about love, passion, betrayal and lies,” and poses the question: “Can you ever really trust anyone?” The film is about a man named Johnny, played by the movie’s director and producer Tommy Wiseau, who is set to wed his fiancée Lisa, played by Juliette Danielle. It turns out that Lisa is a manipulative woman who will stop at nothing to get what she wants, including Johnny’s best friend Mark, played by Greg Sestero. The movie follows these characters as their relationships disintegrate, and Johnny falls victim to the level of trust and devotion he places in each of his relationships with the other characters. Full of gratuitous sex scenes and salutations, the movie was originally advertised as an “electrifying drama with the passion of Tennessee Williams,” Rousselet said. “It’s bad without being ironic,” Davis said. “It believes in its own sincerity.” Rousselet said, “From the trailer I thought it was kind of self aware and dry in humor, making fun of melodramas, kind of like ‘The Royal Tenenbaums,’ weird but funny. When I saw the actual movie, I didn’t know what to think, I just started laughing.” “It makes no sense cinematically,” Davis said. “It’s the worst movie on every conceivable level.” That kind of reaction is what caused Rousselet to call a few other friends, before the movie had even finished, to come and see the next showing of “The Room.” “I saw it four times in three days,” Rousselet said.

Throughout those viewings, Rousselet and his friends began trying to figure out how to “Rocky Horror” the show. “On YouTube we have a posting explaining in detail everything that goes on during the show,” said Guy Alexander, manager at Drexel Theatre. “They’re called ‘The Room Explained: Part One’ and ‘The Room Explained: Part Two.’” Both are narrated by Nathan Zoebl, the employee who runs the program at The Drexel. The behaviors displayed at a showing are similar in fashion to those of “Rocky Horror.” One of the more well-known actions is the throwing of plastic spoons at the screen when an unexplained framed picture of a spoon appears in the background. “I pointed out the spoon in the picture frame,” Rousselet said. “We’re not sure who first brought the spoons, but we’ve narrowed it down to three people. I wish I could take credit for it, but I have to give credit where credit is due.” Other behaviors seen during the movie include the passing of a football between audience members whenever the male characters have bonding time on screen or the wearing of a red dress similar to the one Johnny gives Lisa at the beginning of the movie. Viewers are encouraged to yell along with the most notorious lines from the movie, the most famous of which is: “You are tearing me apart Lisa!” “I wasn’t aware of all the pageantry the first time I went to see it in the theater,” Davis said. “But there seemed to have been plenty of plastic spoons to go around.” “My friends and I came up with nearly half of all the comments said during the movie,” Rousselet said. “But I can still see it and see new things the audience is evolving.” Rousselet said he first saw the movie in an empty theater in 2003, but by the end of its regular run in theaters, he had nearly 100 people going to the showings. “Tickets sales went up when we started going,” he said. The film was produced on a $6 million budget, according to IMBD. com. But Davis said Wiseau has kept quiet on how he got the money. “That is unheard of,” Rousselet said, “It’s all interiors and a green screen.” Davis said part of what drove costs up is that the movie was shot in two types of film at the same time. “It was shot in both 35mm and HD film,” Rousselet said. “In theory it could have been in 3-D because it was shot with two cameras side-byside.” The mysterious actor and director, Wiseau, is another part of the draw people have to this film.

“I think part of his intrigue is his complete mystery,” Rousselet said. “Who could direct a movie like this? The mystery is bigger than the man himself.” Davis agrees that Wiseau makes the movie more appealing. “He is what he seems to be,” Davis said. “But I’m waiting for the moment he comes out of his accent and tells people he pulled the greatest trick in the history of cinema.” Both Rousselet and Davis recommend going to see the movie without expecting too much of it. Or, as Davis said, “Watch interviews with Tommy Wiseau. That will give you a good sense of what to expect.” “The Room” plays once a month at The Drexel, and will be shown next on Sunday at midnight.

arts&life ‘Precious’ producer speaks on film and music careers Larry Bauman Lantern Reporter bauman.7@osu.edu Lisa Cortes, executive producer of the film “Precious,” spoke at the United Black World Month kick-off event Tuesday night at the Ohio Union Performance Hall. Cortes spoke about her career in the music and film industries and the theme of social justice in films. “Yeah, I’ve had cocktails with Mariah (Carey), and I’ve hung out with Run DMC, and fell off a camel in India,” she said. “But the one thing that is a constant there, that is real, that is true, is what’s in my heart and my mind. That’s what I spend my career dedicating myself to transforming those passions into active art.” Cortes started her music career with Def Jam Records in the ‘80s. She went on to become a vice president with Mercury/PolyGram Records and was later given her own label, Loose Cannon. Cortes said she “hit the glass ceiling” in the music business in the late ‘90s and decided to travel abroad and go on what she describes as a “vision quest.” It was in an Indian movie theater that she had an “epiphany” to go into the film industry. “In the (movie), I didn’t need to know what they were talking about (on the screen), because the images told me everything,” she said. “They told me about people’s desires; they told me about their struggles; they told me about the heart and possibility in ways that a song can’t, because you’re limited by language.” Upon Cortes’ return to the United States, she attended the New York Film Academy. After graduating, she went into film production with Lee Daniels Entertainment, where she worked on the films “Monster’s Ball,” “The Woodsman” and “Shadowboxer.”

New Orleans musician brings Bard to 21st century presence in his life. His father was a pianist and his brothers, Wynton and Branford, are also established jazz musicians. Marsalis said his mother was a music supporter as well. “My mother was a big fan of having access to information, so music became part of that information and part of how we grew up,” Marsalis said. He said when he was young he and his brothers went to his father’s gigs and got to hang out with the band and hear “grown-up stories.” With such a heavy music influence, Marsalis said he always knew he wanted to be a musician. “I had a pretty good idea that it would always involve music in some capacity,” Marsalis said. “But you know, not when I was 5 or 6. We were not exactly like the Jacksons. My dad didn’t lock

“Precious,” Cortes’ best-known film, is based on the novel “Push” by author Sapphire. “I had read the book when it first came out in 1995. I was on the C-train going home in Brooklyn, and this iconic red and black cover seemed to be staring at me from everybody on the train that was reading this book,” she said. “I was not in the film business at that time, but I said if I ever make a movie, I want to do this movie for that little bit of Precious that is in me, that is in you.” Cortes said the depth of Precious’ character drew her attention. “What Sapphire did with the novel was give voice to the pathos and the humor and the hopefulness of Precious. Because that’s something that’s important to me, is the hopefulness of the story,” Cortes said. Cortes told The Lantern there’s one point she hopes students take away from her speech.Investing in the power of ‘yes,’” Cortes said. “Invest in the power of possibilities and to really have a dedication and passion for your dream. I have achieved the things I wanted because as Emily Dickinson says, ‘I’ve dwelled in possibility.’ I’ve found creative solutions and I have not embraced the word ‘no.’” Jamila Caldwell, a second-year in family sciences and education, said she was looking for what Cortes was doing next. “What mainly brought me out was to hear about her journey and what inspired her to make the movie ‘Precious’ and how she got to where she is in life and where she expects to go from here with future productions,” Caldwell said. Jessica Jackson, a fifth-year in strategic communication, was satisfied with the speech. “I am really inspired by black women that are making moves in the world and the United States. And the movie that she produced (Precious) was so powerful, that I just wanted to hear her words and her perspective on being a filmmaker,” Jackson said. “I figured she’d have a lot of wise things to say and she didn’t disappoint me at all.”

us in the closet and say ‘You have to practice so you can become musicians.’ He led by example.” Marsalis said his musical family was not uncommon for the area, but rather a “New Orleans thing.” This is something Kenyatta Beasley, an assistant professor in the School of Music, understands. Ellington Beasley is a New Orleans native and a jazz musician who knows the Marsalis family. A previous high school student of Marsalis’ father, Beasley said he met Delfeayo through that connection about 20 years ago. He describes Delfeayo’s music as traditional. “It’s more like traditional jazz, along the lines of Miles Davis or Duke Ellington,” Beasley said. “He’s definitely a traditionalist, there’s nothing really modern about it. But what makes it special is that

it’s traditional in its own way. It’s doing it’s own thing and it’s from New Orleans.” Beasley recommends students attend the show this weekend because of the rare opportunity it presents to hear genuine New Orleans jazz. “It’s one of the rare times that we can get one of the great musicians from New Orleans that stay authentic to that tradition in Columbus, Ohio,” Beasley said. Fans of Marsalis’ previous work should expect a completely new experience when listening to this new project, Marsalis said. He said all of his work until this has been completely his own, so to change that was a new approach. “This is quite different, to try to adapt someone else’s music and then of course someone as prolific as Duke Ellington is pretty different,” Marsalis said. After establishing himself as a jazz composer, Marsalis offered advice to students trying to get into performing. “I would say without question, study and be creative,” Marsalis said.

arts&life Comedy troupe recreates your first date, awkwardly

thelantern book Club recommends...

The cast of FFN has also improvised several types of scenes, from dramatic scenes, to doing an entire play backwards with the last scene first, Kessler said. “We like experimenting with different formats because it gives our audience a fresh take on improv with each show in our season,” he said. Although nothing is rehearsed for the show, the actors have known each other for several years and are aware of each other’s preferences, Smith said. “Since we’ve been working together for so long, we all have a knack for knowing each others’ strengths and weaknesses and have a lot of trust,” Smith said. “Trust is by far the most important part of improv acting.” Kessler said improv was his first love. “It’s the essence of performing without a net,” he said. “There’s no script to rely on, or stage directions to get back to if things start to go off course, but because of that freedom, there’s no greater high than hitting one out of the park.”

Delirium

Rather than taking your valentine to the traditional romantic dinner and a movie, “Love in The Time of Comedy” offers the chance mix it up and laugh with your partner at a long-form style improv show centered around awkward first dates. The show will be performed at MadLab on North Third Street through Sunday. Full Frontal Nudity, a local sketch comedy group, is putting together a new kind of love story with the performance. A group of eight actors gather information from two couples in the audience and act out how they met, with a twist decided on by the audience. “Like any form of improv comedy, it’s all completely made up on the spot,” said Nikki Smith, an FFN actor. “We don’t rehearse any of it ahead of time.” After the group acts out the first couple’s relationship, there is a short film about other couples and their relationships. The actors then perform the second couple’s relationship. “Odds are what we do is not at all how their relationship went, but that’s what makes it so funny,” Smith said. Every show is different, as every couple met a different way. Some of the actors play pets or inanimate objects. It all depends on the couple’s story. “We never know what we’re going to get, so we have to be ready for anything,” Smith said. “We’re really at the mercy of our audience.” Since 2006, FFN has done many long-form formats: love-related formats, a detective format and a science fiction format, said Josh Kessler, an FFN actor.

The American borders have been sealed and the U.S. government has supreme control over society. In this dystopian society love is considered a disease. Citizens have been led to believe that love is the root of all evil and are forced to receive a comingof-age lobotomy that removes their capability to love. Lena, an 18-year-old, has seen firsthand the damage love can do. Her mother, who the procedure failed to work on, commits suicide. Lena has been taught that love will make people go mad, but against what she’s learned, she finds beauty in love stories like “Romeo and Juliet.” The summer before she is to go through the love “cure,” she even starts falling in love. In Lauren Oliver’s second novel, Lena starts to question what her country is built upon.

OSU AD: No more talk about tourney expansion zack meisel Editor-in-chief meisel.14@osu.edu In about five weeks, those who take part in March Madness office pools will become acquainted with the new 68-team NCAA Tournament bracket. For now, they won’t have to worry about squeezing a 96-team field onto their 8.5-by-11-inch sheet of paper. The NCAA Division I men’s basketball selection committee will not discuss further expansion of the sport’s prized postseason tournament, said Ohio State athletic director Gene Smith.

“I don’t anticipate we’ll be discussing that at all,” Smith told The Lantern last week. “We went to 68 after a thorough vetting with the membership. We got feedback from conferences.” Smith is chair of the committee for the 2010–11 academic year. He has been a committee member for four years. Smith said the group will meet in

Buckeyes hold tight grip on No. 1 seed, but 3 remaining top seeds up for grabs chris biderman Senior Lantern reporter biderman.1@osu.edu While it’s clear the Ohio State men’s basketball team (24-0, 11-0 Big Ten) is a front-runner for the NCAA Tournament’s top seed, there’s still much debate about who will get the three remaining No. 1 spots. The Big East, arguably the nation’s deepest and most competitive conference, has seven teams ranked No. 16 or better in the Associated Press’ Top 25 poll. According to CBS Sports’ Jerry Palm, six of those teams are still in the running for a No. 1 seed in the big dance. “You got three spots up for grabs and nine teams that could grab it still,” Palm told The Lantern. “Maybe more than nine, because you probably got half a dozen in the Big East alone.” Fourth-ranked Pittsburgh (22-2), No. 8 Notre Dame (19-4), No. 9 Villanova (19-4), No. 10 Connecticut (18-4), No. 11 Georgetown (18-5) and No. 12 Syracuse (20-4) can all win their way to the top of a regional bracket, Palm said. “You got half a dozen teams that are capable of playing at that level and making the kind of run that it would take,” Palm said. “In my bracket, I have six Big East teams in the top 13.” Pittsburgh’s road to a No. 1 seed got a little harder after its leading scorer Ashton Gibbs injured his left knee in Saturday’s win against Cincinnati. The 6-foot-2 junior guard is averaging 16.3 points per game while shooting 46.3 percent from 3-point range. He’s expected to miss up to two weeks. However, Gibbs’ absence didn’t stop the Panthers from beating West Virginia on the road in their “Backyard Brawl” rivalry game, 71-66, on Monday. Big 12 teams Kansas (23-1) and Texas (20-3) hold the No. 2 and No. 3 ranks, respectively. Palm said while Kansas is the least accomplished team in the top four, it still deserves its ranking. Texas has already beaten Kansas in their only scheduled meeting of the season Jan. 22, though they may meet again in the conference tournament. If they do, it’s possible that a No. 1 tournament seed will be on the line, along with a Big 12 Championship. Fifth-ranked Duke also remains in the running for a top seed, and has a favorable schedule ahead. The Blue Devils don’t play another ranked team

Senior guard Jon Diebler dribbles the ball during Ohio State’s 62-53 victory against Michigan on Feb. 3. until North Carolina on March 5, their last game of the regular season. Palm said he doesn’t believe OSU will finish its regular season undefeated, but it would take a string of losses to cost the team a No. 1 seed. He pointed to Saturday’s road game at No. 13 Wisconsin (17-5, 7-3 Big Ten) and the Feb. 20 contest at No. 14 Purdue (19-5, 8-3 Big Ten) as the toughest games remaining on the Buckeyes’ schedule. OSU coach Thad Matta has never won a game at Wisconsin’s Kohl Center during his tenure at OSU, while Wisconsin coach Bo Ryan is 75-6 there in Big Ten play since he took over for the Badgers. But the Buckeyes have given their best performances against good

oppositions, most notably against Florida, Minnesota, Illinois and Purdue. Matta’s players have said all season that they don’t feel the pressure associated with their No. 1 ranking. “To be honest I don’t think we really feel pressure at all because we don’t really talk about it as a team,” senior guard Jon Diebler said. “I think the coaches have done a great job at having that next-game mentality and focusing on the next game at hand.” Fifth-year senior forward David Lighty agreed. “When you start looking too far ahead, that’s when you lose sight of what’s in front of you,” he said, “and you end up losing.”

inten grou tional ndin g A Super (lousy) Bowl Super Bowl XLV was supposed to be bigger and better than ever, a testament to the state of Texas’ ego and Cowboys owner Jerry Jones’ colossal coliseum. But in the end, the biggest game in America was Super-substandard. The week started off with a curious statement from NFL commissioner Roger Goodell regarding embattled Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger. Goodell offered the following to Sports Illustrated’s Peter King: “Not one, not a single player, went to his defense. It wasn’t personal in a sense, but all kinds of stories like, ‘He won’t sign my jersey.’” The commissioner illustrated the lack of support Roethlisberger apparently had while the NFL was investigating him for misconduct. But why did the NFL’s czar throw Big Ben under the bus during Super Bowl week? Not exactly public relations 101, to be sure. If that wasn’t bad enough, the coldest weather Dallas had seen in two decades certainly was. The city was an icy metropolis on Tuesday and then was hit with six inches of snow Friday. Ken Hoffman of The Houston Chronicle wrote that the road conditions were so poor, “several times I saw my life flash before my eyes.” But the worst was yet to come. On Friday, ice and snow fell from the Cowboys Stadium roof, injuring six NFL-hired private contractors. To Jones, it probably felt like the sky was falling at this point. Not quite yet. Upon their arrival to the Super Bowl, 1,250 fans were told that their temporary seats were unsafe — 850 ended up sitting elsewhere in the stadium, while the other 400 had to watch the game on TV inside the stadium, according to an NFL statement. The screwed-over 400 got triple refunds and tickets to next year’s Super Bowl. “Triple reimbursement” translated to between $2,400 and $2,700 for those fans. However, the average Super Bowl ticket could’ve been resold for $3,559 on StubHub.

“You had more NCAA Division I basketball teams, but you had a smaller percentage compared to other sports that were being able to be eligible for postseason play,” Kellogg said. “So from that standpoint I said, ‘Well maybe it makes some sense. I mean, if we only have 18 or 19 percent of our teams playing in the NCAA Tournament, and the other sports that have championships have 25 percent, maybe 30 percent of their teams, then why not consider expanding the tournament to be, from a percentage standpoint, more equal?’” UConn athletic director Jeff Hathaway will chair the committee during the 2011–12 academic year. Attempts to reach Hathaway did not immediately receive responses. NCAA President Mark Emmert discussed the 68-team field and prospects of further tournament expansion when he met with local media before the OSU-Purdue football game Oct. 23. “I am excited about where we wound up right now,” Emmert said. “I think the three-team expansion is going to work well. I think we need to get into this and get through a number of cycles before we talk about whether we do anything else, but I think we wound up in a very good spot.” Jimmy Oldham and Chris Biderman

Indianapolis from Feb. 15–18, then again from March 8 until the conclusion of the tournament. The NCAA expanded the tournament from 65 to 68 teams last April after agreeing to a 14-year, $10.8 billion contract with CBS and Turner Sports to showcase every game of the three-week spectacle. Initial discussions centered on increasing the field to 96 teams by collapsing the 32-team National Invitational Tournament field into the NCAA Tournament domain. Those talks were tabled when the contract was signed. Smith says they’ll remain sidelined for the time being. “Obviously, we discussed that with potential partners and we ended up with Turner and CBS,” Smith said. “So I think we’ve vetted it pretty well and I do not anticipate in the near future that we’ll be discussing that again.” Merging the NIT and NCAA Tournament appears to be a sensible eventuality, said former Buckeye Clark Kellogg, a college basketball analyst for CBS. “The 96 teams, because of the NIT being owned by the NCAA, and the NCAA tournament being run by the NCAA, that was a number that got thrown around because it made sense that they would just marry those two entities,” said Kellogg, who has provided color commentary for CBS’s coverage of the last two NCAA Championship games. In an interview with The Lantern in late August, Kellogg initially opposed the proposal of a 96-team bracket because of the never-ending argument from teams on the outside looking in. “Where would you draw the line? Because if you’re trying to make sure that every worthy team gets in, or deserving team gets in, how do you determine what number that is?” Kellogg said. “There’s 68 now, but there’s always going to be the 69th and 70th team. If you go to 72, there’s a 73rd and 74th team. So my initial position was leave it as it is or let everybody in. Figure out a way to make it more like a high school tournament. And that obviously wasn’t something on the table.” College basketball expert Jerry Palm of CBS Sports said he doesn’t see any advantages to a 96-team field. “There are no advantages. In (Division I), it’s way too freakin’ big,” Palm said. “There is no chance whatsoever that that’s a good thing. You’re basically doing away with the NIT; you’re adding 32 teams to the field that have no business being in this tournament who have no chance of any success whatsoever. It’s ridiculous.” Palm isn’t content with the 68-team format, either. “I think it’s still four too many. The last few years we’ve had teams in the tournament … who should really be in the NIT,” Palm said. “Now we’re going to have three more of those teams. I think when you lower the standard even this little bit … this is why we have the NIT. I think 68 is too big. I know why they went to 68, they wanted to balance the regions so I understand that. “I don’t really have a big complaint about it, but to me the better way to balance the regions would go back to 64, but nobody ever goes backwards.” There are 347 Division I college basketball teams. Increasing the number of tournament participants from 65 to 68 teams increases the percentage of participants from 18.8 percent to 19.7 percent. Opening up the field to 96 teams would boost the percentage of participants to 27.7 percent.

receivers nearly handed the game to the Steelers, dropping so many passes that Braylon “Stone Hands” Edwards looked like Jerry Rice. In FOX’s mind, the game was a huge success. The network said Monday that 162.9 million people watched at least six minutes of the Super Bowl, a new record for total viewership of any program in U.S. history and 9.5 million more than the record set by last year’s Super Bowl. Everything’s bigger in Texas, even mediocrity.

LIBRA Sept. 23–Oct. 22 Today is a 7 -- It’s a very busy day. You’re extremely sensitive to light and sound (which could be a good thing). Get grounded before making a big decision.

ARIES March 21 – April 19 Today is a 7 -- All work and no play sounds boring. Remember to take time to follow your passions. Better yet, play at work and work at play, for some big game. TAURUS April 20 – May 20 Today is a 9 -- You’re on top of the world, and others want what you have. Stop and think, when necessary. It’s a great time to socialize and to rediscover your artistic expression.

sports Forward friendship frozen on ice brYan kOrecz Lantern reporter korecz.1@osu.edu A little more than four years ago when the two were freshmen, they sat next to each other in the locker room. Then, they played on the same line during games. Now, they’re in all the same classes. Senior forwards John Albert and Sergio Somma have developed a unique friendship while playing on the Ohio State men’s hockey team, which allows them to joke around but be serious when it’s time to take care of business. They seem to have a certain comfort level with each other, which was evident the moment they were asked to say something about the other. “His feet smell terrible; it’s pretty bad actually,” Albert said of Somma, with a chuckle. “I think over the years I’ve gotten used to it.” Albert had a few more fun facts about his buddy. “He really cares about his sticks,” Albert said. “If there’s a little dent on his stick … he always puts it in my face.” Somma wasn’t shy about sharing some tidbits about Albert either. “He eats funny,” Somma said. “He like dips his head down and shoves food in his mouth … and he, like, doesn’t move his head.” While the two aren’t afraid to point out the other’s faults and embarrassing habits, they also have a certain respect for each other. They don’t hesitate to talk about how much they like being teammates and how their friendship helps out on the ice. “(John is) a real great skater, a real dynamic player,” Somma said. “Somebody you enjoy being around off the ice, you’re probably going to click better with on the ice. … It happens to be like that with me and John.” Albert said he enjoys playing with Somma and their friendship makes it easy to be teammates. “I have a great time playing with him,” Albert said. “It’s great. He’s a great player; he’s feisty on the ice.” OSU coach Mark Osiecki said he knows he has to keep Somma and Albert on the same line because they make each other play better. “We’re trying to keep those two together,” Osiecki said. “They feed off each other.” Somma and Albert said they enjoy being on the same team now, but wonder what it would be like to play on different teams at the next level — the NHL. Albert has been drafted by the Atlanta Thrashers and Somma could receive offers after this season. Albert gave the impression that Somma is a player he wouldn’t want to face. “As an opponent,” Albert said, “I think it’d be a struggle to play against him.” Somma thought differently of facing Albert. “It would be funny,” Somma said. “Just give him a smile and a whack, and then you keep playing.”

senior forward sergio somma challenges michigan state freshman forward Greg Wolfe during Ohio state’s 4-2 victory on friday. NHL fantasies aside, both players said they are concentrated on this season with the Buckeyes. Albert said the off-ice friendship makes it easier for the two to give each other constructive criticism on the ice. “He’s always there to pick me up,” Albert said, “and I think it’s vice versa.” Throughout the four years they’ve played together and been friends, Albert said, he wonders what Somma really thinks of him. “At least I hope he likes me,” Albert said with a smile. Somma reassured that they’re friends, saying even if he didn’t like Albert, he’d still act like it. “Everyone thinks I do,” Somma said, “so I guess I’m doing a pretty good job acting like it.”

With a powerful group of veteran leaders and a super sophomore class, the Ohio State men’s lacrosse team looks to start its season with a victory tonight against Detroit (0-1). OSU coach Nick Myers said the Buckeyes’ leadership comes from a group of 14 seniors — four of whom are captains — and junior captain Brock Sorensen. “You have got to look to those seniors for leadership first and foremost,” he said. “They have really stepped out and taken charge of this team and made it clear that it’s an effort every day that we pay attention to detail.” Two of the Buckeye captains, midfielders Scott Lathrop and Jarred Bowman, agreed. “There is going to be adversity throughout the year,” Bowman said. “As long as we stay together and really focus on having each other’s backs and being there for everybody, we will be fine.” Although the leadership comes from the senior class, a large part of the scoring for OSU comes from a duo of sophomores. At attack, Logan Schuss and Jeff Tundo return to the Buckeyes after being the top two scorers for the team during their freshman seasons. Schuss finished the 2010 campaign with a team-high 56 points with 31 goals for the Buckeyes, and Tundo added 35 points with 20 goals.

Although those two attackers are only sophomores, Myers said he holds them to the same standards as he does the team’s veterans. “A lot of those sophomores that play for us, we’re treating those guys like veterans,” Myers said. “We want them to play like veterans as second-year guys, and that’s a big strength for us.” A challenge for the Buckeyes this season will be the difficulty of their non-conference schedule, which includes No. 1 Virginia, No. 2 North Carolina and No. 10 Notre Dame. “We probably have the toughest non-conference schedule we’ve ever faced,” Myers said. “We understand it’s going to be one game at a time.” On Saturday, OSU had two scrimmages — one against defending National Champion No. 5 Duke and another against Division III power Salisbury. But the Buckeyes are anxious to get on the field for a regular season game. “We have been practicing against each other for a month now as well as all of fall,” Lathrop said. “We got some scrimmage time last week but it’s not the same as a regular game. I think everyone is just real excited to play another team in a real-game situation.” Last year, the Buckeyes went 7-8 and finished No. 33. Their last meeting with Detroit was Feb. 27, 2010. Behind a team-high six points from Schuss, OSU came away with a 16-7 victory. The Titans fell to No. 17 Delaware, 13-5, in their season opener Saturday. OSU kicks off its regular season at 7 p.m. tonight at Woody Hayes Athletic Center.
