CAITLIN O’NEIL Lantern reporter oneil.97@osu.edu When the university switches to a semester system in 2012, all students could be required to meet the same set of general education requirements if administrators agree on a recent proposal.

Under the proposed curriculum, which was released in late January by the university’s committee on general education, all students would be required to take 15 to 18 courses in addition to their major requirements. Students now must take 16 to 21 courses, depending on their major.

If the proposal is passed, students will take only one history class rather than two. There are also now two open option classes, where students can take whatever they want.

With more than a dozen university programs with different course requirements, students are left with a smorgasbord deÿnition of “general education.”

Administrators hope to clarify that deÿnition with the revised plan.

“There’s currently about 13 or 14 different variations of the [general education] curriculum in addition to honors, and what we tried to do was establish a minimum standard that would apply to as many programs as possible,” said Mark Shanda, chair of the University Level Advisory Committee, which drafted the proposal. “We looked very hard at that goal. We’re pretty conÿdent that the majority of programs will be able to build their degree programs around this baseline model.”

But some professors are worried that science classes are getting lost in the shuf° e of the proposal, which requires only two biological and physical science classes, rather than the three required now.

And some say that the sciences are neglected in the stated goals of the proposal, said Myroslava Mudrak, a member of the University Level Advisory

Notable changes in proposed GEC requirements With the switch from quarters to semesters, university administrators are proposing a change in the General Education Curriculum, which would require the same courses of all majors pursuing a Bachelor of Arts.

The committee is collecting feedback from university departments and is reopening discussion on concerns they have received, Shanda said.

Some details of the proposal could be changed, Shanda said, but he is conÿdent the framework will remain the same.

Once the proposal is ÿnalized, it will go to the Arts and Sciences Committee on Curriculum and Instruction. That committee will make a formal recommendation to the Arts and Sciences Senate before the proposal would go to the Council on Academic Affairs, where colleges outside of Arts and Sciences will be asked to respond.

Committee.

“It is nearly impossible not to think that it would be better to have more science,” said Harald Vaessin, professor of molecular genetics and member of the committee. “We live in a world where it’s an integrated part for everybody — it doesn’t matter what we do. Therefore you would want more of it.”

However, Vaessin contends that students will be able to take more science courses in the proposed “open option” courses, which allow students to choose from a variety of classes. And it’s important not to get caught up in counting classes, he said, but university ofÿcials should carefully monitor the content of the courses.

Vaessin also pointed out that it would be difÿcult to ÿnd any professor who thinks his or her ÿeld

Under her married name Kim Joyce, her single, “Head Games,” was released in December and her new album “The Different Sides of Sexy” is now available for download on iTunes.

“I can honestly say that this album is one that can be appreciated by everyone,” Joyce said. “It’s original. It’s not fabricated. It’s life from the average person’s view.”

Even though Joyce is a solo act, she has already been the opening act for big

names such as Brian McKnight and Lil Wayne. Joyce’s vocals have even been compared to R&B greats Lauryn Hill and India Arie.

Growing up as the daughter of a Baptist preacher, religion has been a major inspiration for her music. Joyce developed her soulful style from singing in her church choir in Detroit.

Four-star wide receiver recruit James Louis nearly decided to attend Florida before becoming a Buckeye

director for external relations. “Because we have issues we did an audit to see who is eligible to park in those areas.”

The audit allowed the Athletic Department to do two things: deÿne who is eligible for those parking spots, and if they do not qualify, give them an opportunity to pay up.

In all, 4,605 people qualify for parking in six lots controlled by the Athletic Department during home football games. Spots are reserved for those with season parking permits and include suite holders, club seat holders and donors to OSU athletics.

There is an annual cost of $325 on top of the $5,000 donation, and a portion of the donation is tax deductible.

Those who wish to acquire these spots are required to meet a required donation amount in addition to the price of the parking spot to be able to use them on game days.

Avid tailgaters keep the shadows of Ohio Stadium bright during Ohio State football games.

But all these lucky spots come with a $5,000 price tag, and some fans haven’t been paying up.

Letters recently went out informing more than 400 parkers that they are not eligible to one of these spots next season because they have not paid the required $5,000 donation. An audit exposed these non-payers after ofÿcials realized an “intense interest in the 2010 football season,” according to the letter sent by OSU. “It’s one of those items where we have supply and demand issues, in terms of parking availability on game day,” said Pat Chun, senior associate

An Ohio State professor has gotten the chance to be part of the Winter Olympics, by explaining the science of some of the Games’ popular sports.

Kathy Flores, an OSU associate professor in the College of Engineering, was approached by producers for NBC Learn, the educational arm of NBC News, to explain the science behind hockey, skiing and safety gear in a series of video segments.

The clips are appearing on various NBC subsidiaries during the Olympics.

Flores, with her experience testing sporting equipment, accepted on the condition that the producers would send the necessary equipment.

She and her students conducted tests on the equipment.

The skis sent were not Olympic quality, but the hockey equipment was high quality, she said.

“Once you cut it up and see what it’s made of and how it’s constructed, you are able to make a hypothesis why an athlete chooses a certain ski or stick.”

Flores and her students KATHY FLORES ran the tests in MacQuigg Laboratory’s high bay, where saws, mechanical test frames and optical microscopes were available.

After Flores was comfortable with the test results, NBC’s ÿlming crew came to the high bay in early October, Flores said.

The “Science of Skiing” clip lasts more than ÿve

minutes, but the segment is sometimes cut to 30 seconds. In the clips, which feature Olympic skier and medalist Julia Mancuso, Flores explains how the ÿberglass composition of the skis allows athletes to be both stable and ° exible.

For Olympic skiers, where fractions of a second matter, “having the right ski can make a big difference,” Flores said.

Although she doesn’t have plans for more television segments, Flores said she would be a willing candidate — as long as she had adequate time to prepare.

“I don’t want to say anything dumb,” she said.

Flores has also been invited to contribute to an article on the Winter Olympics in a professional journal.

Ohio State will begin using four waste pulping systems in the new Ohio Union dining facilities.

“The waste pulping systems will help OSU food services do their part for a cleaner, healthier environment, while saving money by lowering operation and maintenance costs, slashing water bills and eliminating the transport of garbage and reducing labor,” said Tim Keegstra, associate director of Ohio State facilities operations.

A waste pulper grinds food waste materials in water to create a slurry, and then extracts the liquid from the solids. The solids are then discharged into a waste container and the liquid is sent back to the pulper to carry more waste materials.

“Where a garbage disposal is only capable of handling food materials, the waste pulper is capable of processing food waste, paper and the majority of biodegradable food containers and cardboard,” Keegstra said.

OSU has partnered with Kurtz Brothers Inc., a local environmental company, to compost the food scraps at the company’s Groveport facility.

It will benefit both parties. OSU dining facilities can get rid of the pulp, while Kurtz Brothers will utilize the raw material in their products.

“This emerging program will allow for the compacted pulp, which would otherwise go to a landfill, to be recovered, processed and reused in topsoil and mulch products. It will also convert the compost’s bio-gas into natural gas,” Keegstra said.

Environmental sustainability programs are still being finalized at OSU. “It’s better late than never. I just think these green programs should have been implemented years before, since we are such a large university. We probably produce a lot of food waste,” said Joel Throckmorton, an environmental and natural resource student. “OSU should have done more before, but it is great that we are doing something now.”

“As a large university we really don’t produce that much food waste.

Plus, food waste is biodegradable; it’s the non biodegradable products that we need to worry about,” Keegstra said. “What is important to our customers becomes important to us. There is a trade-off though … it could cost more, but money is no longer the determining factor.”

Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design is the green-building standard the Ohio Union will uphold, according to the Ohio Union Web site. The new union will feature the waste pulping system estimated to reduce waste by 70 to 80 percent, water-efficient landscaping and a program for recycling used vegetable oil into a bio-diesel used to fuel campus buses.

Recycling and sustainability are not only being enforced at the Ohio Union.

Other campus dining services have converted from using foam products to recycled paper products, and are dispensing recyclable cutlery individually to reduce waste. Biodegradable take-out bags are now offered, and reusable cloth bags are being sold at various locations.

“Traditional dining has gone ‘trayless,’ conserving water and energy and cutting the cost of cleaning chemicals and reducing food waste,” said Steve Sipe, operations director of traditional dining. “Customers can’t carry as much, so they don’t put as much on their plates.”

The experiment of trayless dining has apparently been a success, Keegstra said.

“At first we didn’t realize how big of an effect trayless dining would have, it cut food waste drastically,” Keegstra said.

Keegstra did not have specifics, because dining services does not weigh the amount of food waste. However, according to OSU President POLL E. Gordon Gee’s Council on Sustainability Web site, trayless dining has RESULTS reduced 70 percent of food waste.

Campus dining is working to make productive steps for the campus and for the environment, Sipe said. “We utilize whatever we can utilize.”

Consumers feel better about debt as recession continues, study says tIara NorMaN Lantern reporter norman.136@osu.edu Although the economy is bad, consumers have good feelings about debt, according to a recent Ohio State study.

OSU’s Center for Human Resource Research conducted a telephone survey to measure the average American’s opinions about their debt. The results of the survey show that consumers are beginning to feel decreased levels of stress about the amount of money owed to creditors.

The researchers developed the Consumer Debt Stress Index to gauge participant’s feelings about their finances. The telephone survey is conducted monthly with 673 participants to determine the average stress index score of consumers.

The score has been steadily increasing since the study began in 2006. However, the Consumer Debt Stress Index score peaked in July, and has been decreasing ever since. It dropped from 119.8 to 117.4 in January.

Sherman Hanna, a professor of consumer sciences, said consumers may be experiencing positive feelings because most of them have reduced spending since the recession.

“Since roughly the middle of 2008, American households have been cutting back on credit card debt,” Hanna said. “My guess is that the feelings might be similar to somebody who has ended a drinking or eating binge — perhaps painful at first, but then if you succeed in cutting back, you might feel more positive.”

The average family owed $7,300 in credit card debt in 2007, according to the U.S. Federal Reserve. That same year 48.7 percent of families owed money for home-secured debts, and 46.9 percent owed money for installment debts in the U.S. Lucia Dunn, an OSU professor of economics and one of the researchers involved in the study, said consumer opinions about debt have improved because the country is rebounding from the recession.

“This is because the economy is recovering,” Dunn said.

“Gross Domestic Product has been rising and the labor market is improving.”

The study also analyzed gender differences in feelings about finances. The Consumer Debt Stress Index score decreased at an average rate of 3.6 points for men, compared to only 2.5 points for women in January. Dunn said it is not unusual for women to experience higher levels of stress about debt.

“We don’t completely understand it, but women have always been more worried about debt than men,” Dunn said.

The survey also assessed how financial stress affected each respondent’s personal lives. Participants were asked questions about their family life, job performance and health.

More than 23 percent of respondents said their health was somewhat, quite or very much affected by their debt. Only 20.6 percent of participants said their health was affected by financial stress last year.

“We believe that health is being affected because of the stress that comes from living beyond your means,” Dunn said.

“When you boil it all down, 80 percent of the people that are parking in our parking lots qualify to park,” Chun said. “These are just the 20 percent that we would hope would want to qualify to park in those lots.”

Chun, an OSU alumnus, has been with the Athletic Department for 13 years and sees nothing new or different about this policy.

“It’s a required donation that has been in place for a long time,” he said. “We wanted to adhere to our system that has been in place. This isn’t something new.”

A point system, kept track of by the university development system , calculates points for faculty, staff and donors. People with more points get better spots. Members receive points based on their donations. It is supposed to create a system in which people who give to OSU are rewarded accordingly.

Bill Jones, associate athletic director for external relations, has been with the OSU ticket ofÿce four years and realized when he ÿrst got here that the ofÿce needed to get a handle on parking.

“In the past there was no point system,” Jones said. “But parking is becoming more and more scarce and we have a large number of donors who qualify … we are trying to be fair and equitable.”

After determining how many of the 426 are willing to pay the donation, the point system will then be used to assign spots.

Despite the controversy, no one is going to lose parking if they do not donate. Rather, they will lose their golden spot close to the stadium.

“The big beneÿt is that there are options,” Jones said. “We are not taking it away, just simply giving them an option.”

Echoing what Jones said, Chun added that these

people are not being kicked to the curb on game day.

“If the 426 people that were notiÿed choose not to give, we’ll put them in a parking lot, just not one of the lots that are near the proximity of Ohio Stadium,” Chun said.

Although the Athletic Department is raising public ticket prices by $7 and student tickets by $1 next season, Chun said the donation is more about fairness than money.

“There’s such limited parking. Ultimately, we want a level playing ÿeld where everyone that’s parking in those lots is contributing the same amount or the requisite amounts to the university,” he said.

Joyce from 1A

Career as a Buckeye was most important experience, Joyce says has always been my No. 1 in° uence for everything that I do.”

Joyce received a full scholarship to OSU as a guard and was named the 2006 Big Ten Defensive Player of the Year. During that same year, the women’s basketball team won the Big Ten Championship. Joyce also set the record for most career steals, which she still holds today.

After graduating from OSU in 2006, Joyce spent time as lead singer for the alternative/hip-hop group LaQuest.

She already learned how to play piano in church and then learned guitar from performing with LaQuest.

“I absolutely loved it,” Joyce said. “I don’t think I’m just one genre. I have a straight alternative track called ‘Drive’ on my new album.”

If she was asked in high school what she wanted to do with her life, she never would have mentioned music.

Joyce says she always wanted to be in the WNBA. “The WNBA was always it for me and then I thought, ‘Maybe this isn’t what I want to do,’” Joyce said. “It was hard to start over. There were no coaches recruiting me.

Not too many people go to open mic nights trying to ÿnd talent, but anything is possible.”

Making the transition from basketball to music was difÿcult, but Joyce had learned from her days at OSU never to give up. It was the discipline Joyce learned on the court that she says has helped her to get her music career started.

“Playing here was the most important time of my life,”

Joyce said. “The way I live my life as a woman and how I work in music I derive all from basketball. There is a huge tradition here you carry your whole life.”

So for athletes who aren’t inclined to play professional sports, Joyce is living proof that there is life after college sports.

“I know everyone gets tired of this cliché, but anything is possible,” Joyce said. “The last thing I thought I would be doing was being on stage by myself with a mic in my hand.”

Of course Joyce wants to win a Grammy and tour the world, but those aren’t her main goals. Living comfortably and being able to support her family is important, but Joyce says above anything else her dream is to “get my music out there.”

student voice Black History Month causes even more segregation LANTERN Columnist

TANijA smooT smoot.43@osu.edu

In 1926, Carter G. Woodson, an African-American historian and the son of two slaves, first established “Negro History Week” as an honor to African-American history. As a scholar, Woodson noticed the lack of attention black history and historical figures received in textbooks and took it upon himself to create a specified time in February in which African-Americans and African-American history would be studied. Since then, “Negro History Week” has transformed into Black History Month, and there is no need for a Black History Month.

Black History Month, in many ways, has become yet another way to segregate black Americans from the rest of American history. Growing up, I could always recall learning the same material every single February. Usually the material would focus on universally known facts and historical figures such as Martin Luther King Jr., Harriet Tubman and Rosa Parks.

Rarely did the lessons vary, and they never took place outside the month of February, as if that particular month was the only time students could learn about black history. Outside of February, the curriculum largely ignored black historical figures and facts, implying that black Americans were a “separate yet equal” group outside of America and its history.

Sound familiar? I hope so.

However, that is not to say that Black History Month shouldn’t have been created.

Woodson was onto something. Prior to establishment of Black History Month, influential

African-American historical figures were virtually invisible in textbooks and historical lessons. In the 1920s, years before King began his voyage as a civil rights leader, America, as a whole, was very ignorant of all the contributions and heroic efforts black Americans had made in serving and improving the United States. When Woodson launched “Negro Week,” his primary goal was to educate all Americans and bring forth awareness of AfricanAmerican accomplishments.

More than 80 years later, America has evolved. Instead of isolating and compacting black history into the shortest month of the year, schools should integrate African-American history into the entire curriculum as well as expand the material covered. For example, instead of spending an entire month studying a selected few black civil rights leaders, schools should also incorporate other less famous African-Americans as well, such as Lewis Latimer, Mark Dean and Emmett W. Chappelle, alongside the likes of Thomas Edison, Alexander Graham Bell and Benjamin Franklin all year round. By allowing black history to be detached from the rest of U.S. history, America is doing a disservice to those who fought so hard to integrate and unify all Americans.

As this year’s Black History Month comes to close, I hope that all Americans realize that black history should not be treated as a separate entity, but rather as a part of our country’s past, present and future.

A needed break from sports drama LANTERN Columnist

For the past two weeks, the Olympics Games have taken over NBC-owned stations, and for an avid sports fan like myself, watching has been a breath of fresh air The joy of the opening ceremony was dampened by the tragic death of a Georgian luger, Nodar Kumaritashvili. Continuing on, 82 countries marched in the magnificent ceremony, starting 16 days of exciting action. From mesmerizing shots in curling matches ANDy goTTEsmAN to painful finish-line collapses in gottesman.17@osu.edu cross-country skiing, each day has provided exciting moments.

College and professional sports are becoming increasingly dramafilled each offseason. With coaches defecting to take higher-paying jobs, hostile contract negotiations (has Brett Favre retired yet?), watching Olympic athletes compete for a common goal, a gold medal and the reverence of their country, is very refreshing. Teens can compete equally with 40-year-old veterans, excluding Brett Favre.

Professional athletes in the United States are known for their actions on and off the playing field. Olympians are seldom heard about during the four-year gap, but during these few days they are national heroes and household names.

These Games bring us together as a country. Some cheered Shani Davis on as he raced for his second career Olympic gold in 1,000-meter speed skating. Others got chills when Shaun White threw down the biggest run of his life in the snowboarding half pipe. Some may have been overcome with emotion when Evan Lysacek captured the first men’s figure skating gold for the U.S. since 1988. Except for the Super Bowl, World Series, Stanley Cup and NBA Game 7, every final that has a medal riding on it is better and more thrilling for the fan. The Olympics capture pure joy unlike anything we have, creating a very unique atmosphere.

As the Games wind down this week, we can look forward to U.S. men’s hockey doing their best impression of the 1980 “miracle on ice.” After upsetting Canada Sunday, the team sits in great position to capture the Olympic gold.

The opening ceremony featured a modern revamp of Michael Jackson’s “We Are The World,” with some of the globe’s best performers come together as one. That’s exactly what the Olympics give us.

All you see on either side of the interstate is field after field of what appears to be corn. Imagine my surprise when I was recently in the area and saw what seemed to be a sea of wind machines all around me, none of which were there only a few months ago.

A revolution is underway in America. Thomas Friedman, a threetime Pulitzer Prize winner and New York Times columnist, says in his book “Hot, Flat and Crowded” that “energy technology is going to be the next industrial revolution.” Well known as one of the nation’s leading champions of globalization and free market economies, Friedman is now offering green energy as the best solution to the worldwide economic downturn.

Friedman’s message appears to be about a new green economy, but it’s really more about a new America.

“It’s about recognizing that abandoning the old ways of doing business for the new energy economy is actually good business sense, political sense and humanitarian sense,” he said.

Researchers planning for future energy supplies are working on

several technologies simultaneously, including novel methods to produce electricity, next-generation solar and wind power, and smart grid electric systems that connect everything efficiently. “We need 100,000 people in 100,000 garages trying 100,000 different things — in the hope that five of them break through,” Friedman said.

Recently, President Barack Obama proposed building several nuclear power plants in order to stimulate the economy and create jobs. It’s a good example of how using government

policy and leadership can help unlock the hidden potential to accelerate the growth of technology and industry in this country.

Friedman explains that markets need to remain the mechanism by which renewable energy takes over.

If consumers don’t drive the market, then there will be no revolution.

“Incentives for consumers to switch to renewable energy are essential,” he said. “This is the role that government leadership needs to play.”

Government mandates designating new methods of making energy cheaper to produce and purchase seems like the right thing to do in this economy. Such is the case of the smart grid system currently being developed. The United States Department of Energy Web site explains that the smart grid system is intended to deliver electricity from suppliers to consumers using two-way digital technology to control appliances at consumers’ homes, saving energy.

On the home front, the smart grid provides universal time of use metering that can improve the economy of solar panels significantly for the homeowner.

Arjun Makhijani is an electrical and nuclear engineer who is president of the Institute for Energy and Environmental Research. He thinks that the fastest way to get lots of renewable energy platforms up and running is by covering large tracts of city highways, parking lots and commercial buildings with solar cells.

Another resource we need to tap into is offshore wind machines, akin to the ones I saw in northern Indiana.

“Even if you do not like windmills,” said Makhijani. “It is the price that must be paid in order to make renewables come to market faster.”

Wind machines along our coasts, solar panels scattered across the country, smart grids serving as the connective fiber between everyone and everything; they serve as spokes within a mighty wheel that constantly injects large doses of renewable energy into the community. The problem with this equation is that our current efforts are not only inadequate — they’re hopelessly haphazard and piecemeal. Friedman argues it’ll take a coordinated, top-to-bottom approach, from the White House to corporations to consumers.

Top: usA’s Ryan st. onge makes a landing during the men’s aerials qualification in the 2010 Vancouver olympics in cypress mountain, canada, Feb. 22.

As I write this, Vancouverites are waving the five-ringed flags of the 2010 Winter Olympics, with all the fanfare involved, and good for them. There’s nothing like watching athletes strive for the Olympic ideal of Citius, Altius, Fortius — Swifter, Higher, Stronger — as those ideals relate to sporting endeavors. The challenge of the super G, the grace of paired figure skating and the raw athleticism of crosscountry anything is enough to make us proud, Canadian or not.

It’s all very inspiring, eh?

I believe we should add a fourth Latin attachment to the ideals — Acutulior, or Smarter — for modern Games for intellectual pursuits; call them the “Thinkolympics.” These ‘mind games’ would be a forum where “mentaletes” from all the continents compete for medals in such individual and team sports as hunger-elimination plans, nuclear deterrence, clean water initiatives or micro-finance ideas.

Mentaletes could win their gold, silver and bronze based on their knowledge of current events, world history, world religions and economic factors that affect us all. They could win medals, careers and even endorsements from entrepreneurial governments or private citizens.

Sadly, as I write this, 36 percent of Americans believe our government was involved in the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. Thirty three percent do not believe in global climate change. Many believe a recent urban myth that a directory of cell phone numbers will soon be published! The Cellow-Pages?

I recently heard this actual conversation about the health care debate, from an actual living person: “Of course Congress should pay for it. Otherwise the taxpayers will have to!” You can’t make this stuff up.

Here’s another one: “If English was good enough for Jesus Christ, it’s good enough for us!”

Everybody knows he spoke Christian!

The point, of course, is that we need to accentuate intellectual pursuit more than we do.

When we devote more money to a three-week Olympic spectacle than we allocate for the entire year for the U.S. Department of Education, there are at least opportunities for questions. It cost the Chinese $58.7 billion to host the Beijing Games in 2008; the 2011 budget for U.S. education is $50.3 billion and change.

When I was a kid, this nation was shocked into action when our Russian friends managed to put Sputnik in orbit. It was a little 50-pound orb, not much bigger than a basketball. But the satellite’s presence above our heads in October 1957 was scarier than any Halloween prank. I can still hear it’s ominous beep-beepbeep on the evening newscast.

Sputnik’s launch was a podium event for Russia, a gold medal in the international pursuit of scientific one-upmanship — the Thinkolympics of the ‘50s.

That little silver ball beeping away jolted the U.S. into a race with the Soviets that was more intellectual than physical. We have issues today that are much more urgent than a little silver ball. And we need an Olympic effort to address them.

Get over Tucker Max Letter to the editor michAEL ZELWiN Fourth year, accounting It’s about time that the Ohio State student body get over this whole Tucker Max issue from last year. Throughout my four years, the Ohio Union Activities Board has been doing a great job providing programming to Ohio State students including talent ranging from Rhianna and Jack’s Mannequin to Kid Cudi, Will Farrell, Jon Stewart, and Chris Gardner. Not everyone is going to be appeased by their programming including those “die-hard opponents” that weren’t happy with Tucker Max. OUAB is a very efficient student organization and activities board trying to make as many students on our campus have some of the best memories of their life. I’m not in OUAB, however I can tell you I know many members of the student organization who work hard to get things done.

campus Group works to fix ‘digital divide’ with computer lab Jack Moore Lantern reporter moore.1732@osu.edu On a college campus with wireless Internet in every building, where notebook computers are almost as plentiful as notebooks, Ohio State students might not think of access to technology as a pressing issue.

But there is more to the university area than state-of-the-art facilities and multi-million dollar construction projects.

“The digital divide is very real here,” Catherine Girves, director of the University Area Enrichment Association, said. The digital divide is the gap between those with access to computers and the Internet and those who do not.

The UAEA is a community group that aims to improve the quality of life in the neighborhoods surrounding campus, a 2.78 square-mile area.

The percentage of families in the university district living below the poverty line is 27.3 percent, more than three times that of the average for Franklin County, 8.2 percent, according to the Ohio State’s Center for Urban and Regional Analysis Web site.

The association opened a community computer lab in November to help bridge the digital divide.

The computer lab is tucked away under the peaked roof of the old sanctuary of Summit United Methodist Church. Stained glass still adorns some windows, reflecting blue and red hues onto the rows of 25 computers stationed there.

Girves said they are setting up a tracking system to monitor how many people use the lab, but said there are users every time the lab is open.

Students from nearby Indianola Middle School often make their way to the lab after school.

Residents of the neighborhood find that it is closer to their homes than library branches, and there are fewer lines and less waiting, Girves said.

Christine Annarino, an OSU alumna who is now the volunteer coordinator for the UAEA, estimated that about 60 percent of the people who use the lab do not have consistent Internet access at home.

OSU students have also used the lab, Girves said, “either to give back to the community or because it’s convenient.”

The computers have been refurbished by Free Geek, an organization that shares space at the church with the UAEA. Free Geek receives donated

computers which are rebuilt by volunteers. After volunteering for about 22 hours, participants are eligible to earn a refurbished computer, but many volunteers don’t actually take a computer and just want to volunteer, Girves said.

In the first part of 2009, according to the Free Geek Web site, 200 computers had been donated and 17 had been refurbished and given to volunteers and nonprofit organizations.

The lab computers are loaded with open-source software. While it can be unfamiliar to users at first, Girves said they use it because it is “completely accessible on a financial side.” The software itself is free and does not require costly updates every few years.

While income is a significant factor in the digital divide, Girves said, there are also barriers to access “because of the way people think about themselves and what they think they’re good at.”

“Girls and women often don’t identify as geeks,” she said.

Eva Bradshaw, the director of educational technologies for the Fisher College of Business, agreed.

“It’s not just about the dollars,” she said. “A lot of it is perception. [It’s] the sense that ‘I don’t belong.

That they’re not talking about me when talking about opportunities.’”

Bradshaw heads Gidget, a “pipeline” program that encourages girls to become involved in technology from a young age.

The program works with area grade-school girls, many of whom don’t have access to computers or the Internet at home, including those at nearby Weinland Park Elementary on East Seventh Avenue.

The fourth and fifth-grade girls learn everything from word processing to how to take a computer apart in the after-school program.

Bradshaw mentioned one girl who struggled with keyboarding skills and software, but learned she liked working with her hands while taking a computer apart to learn about its hardware.

“She liked to be in there with the screwdriver takings things apart and seeing how things worked,” Bradshaw said. “Knowing that about yourself can help with career choices.”

Karen Hutzel, an assistant professor of art education at OSU, coordinated a service-learning course that focuses on girls and technology.

In the course, students work with girls from Indianola Middle School twice a week on digital

The OSU students and the girls meet at campus computer labs outfitted with new Mac computers for one day a week and at the community computer lab on the other.

Often the OSU students end up learning just as much from the middle school girls, Hutzel said.

The OSU students learn about “social issues related to technology and learning, and their own sense of privilege with what they have access to,” Hutzel said.

The middle school girls also show them how to be “more fearless in front of a computer.” The younger girls are more willing to grab the mouse and make mistakes, she said.

The contrast between people on either side of the digital divide may seem greater in the university area.

Annarino noted the drastic gap between people with college degrees and those who didn’t complete high school living in the same neighborhood.

But through the UAEA and other organizations, there are ways to “pull those pieces together,” Annarino said.

Bradshaw suggested that tech-savvy OSU students help their neighbors and donate their used laptops to Free Geek or groups like it.

While the area is unique, the UAEA strives to find universal solutions, Girves said.

“Can this be replicated in other neighborhoods?” she said. “Can it be done in Hilltop and Linden? Can it be done in an area without Ohio State University? Can it be done in Detroit? Can it be done in Bangkok?”

zack meisel Sports editor meisel.14@osu.edu Two premier NFL running backs are looking for work. The Philadelphia Eagles released Brian Westbrook Tuesday, one day after the San Diego Chargers cut LaDanian Tomlinson.

Westbrook, 30, Philadelphia’s all-time leader in yards, was the Eagles’ third-round selection out of Villanova in 2002. Tomlinson, 30, set the NFL record with 31 touchdowns during his MVP campaign of 2006. He won the league rushing title in 2006 and 2007, but totaled just 773 yards last year. He was San Diego’s first-round choice in the 2001 draft.

The Tennessee Titans re-signed former Ohio State safety Donnie Nickey to a one-year contract. Nickey, who has played eight years in the NFL, all with Tennessee, recorded 12 sacks on defense and special teams last season. He was a fifth-round draft choice by the Titans in 2002 after winning the National Championship with the Buckeyes.

Former NBA center Jayson Williams was sentenced to five years in prison Tuesday stemming from the fatal shooting of a hired limo driver in 2002. Williams pleaded guilty last month to aggravated assault in the death of Costas Christofi. He will be eligible for parole in 18 months.

Have stick, will travel.

While some of the Columbus Blue Jackets are away from the city playing for their respective national teams in the 2010 Winter Olympics, others are wondering how much longer they will be calling Columbus home.

Forward Raffi Torres is among them. Torres, who is slated to become an unrestricted free agent at season’s end, is a primary candidate to be moved before the March 3 trade deadline.

The Blue Jackets, who currently sit in 14th out of 15 places in the NHL Western Conference, have a near-impossible task ahead of them if they are to claw their way back into the playoff picture.

Anyone who has reached a position of influence with one of the four major American sports leagues has usually done so with the assistance of almost inhuman persistence. One does not attain a spot at the pinnacle of their chosen sport without a neversay-die attitude.

But even the most steadfast and optimistic in the Columbus front office understand that they have dug themselves a nearly insurmountable hole. Most in the organization agree that it will take 15 or 16 wins in the remaining 19 games to salvage a playoff spot.

They sit nine points behind eighth-place Calgary and would need to leap-frog six teams in the process of catching the flames.

So as the trade deadline approaches, teams are already beginning the self-evaluation process of deciding whether they are buyers or sellers.

Columbus almost certainly falls into the latter category.

In addition to Torres, the Blue Jackets have two other upcoming unrestricted free agents – defenseman Milan Jurcina and forward Fredrik Modin.

Modin’s contract contains a no-trade clause and reports are unclear as to whether he or his agent, Don Meehan, will be willing to waive it.

While Modin, who has been injured for a significant portion of the season, may draw some interest as a “dressing room guy,” his two goals and four

The NCAA has determined that the Michigan football program was out of compliance with practice time rules under coach Rich Rodriguez, who incoming athletic director David Brandon declared would remain the school’s coach.

Brandon announced the NCAA’s findings Tuesday, but stated that there were “no surprises,” despite the fact that the report stated that the Michigan athletic department failed to ensure that the program was complying with NCAA regulations.

The university has 90 days to respond to the results and will appear at an NCAA hearing in August.

The NCAA has been investigating allegations that Michigan players exceeded NCAA limits with practice time or other football-related activities.

The allegations came about after the Detroit Free Press reported the claims of a handful of Michigan players who said the players exceeded the limits during practices and workouts in 2008 and 2009.

The university conducted an internal investigation and is looking into self-imposed sanctions.

The internal audit revealed that Rodriguez and his staff failed to file forms that kept logs on the amount of time players spent on football.

Michigan’s report did not find issues of noncompliance. Brandon attributed the dicey situation to a “breakdown of communication.”

Michigan has finished 3-9 and 5-7 in Rodriguez’s two seasons at the helm.

Receiver spurns Gators for Bucks Over the next few weeks, The Lantern will examine the OSU football recruiting class. Today, we take a look at receiver James Louis from Delray Beach, Fla.

erik yost Lantern reporter yost.99@osu.edu The recruitment experience for James Louis was an interesting one.

The heralded 5-foot11-inch, 180-pound wide receiver out of Delray Beach, Fla., may have donned an James louis Ohio State hat on signing day, but seven months earlier, Louis was all set to become a Florida Gator.

“When Louis got the idea that he wasn’t one of their top recruits, he basically turned around and committed to Ohio State right away,” said Steve Helwagen of Bucknuts.com. “It left a lot people wondering if Louis would sign with Ohio State.”

After months of speculation and a last-minute recruitment effort by Florida, Louis, wearing a red shirt to his signing-day press conference, stayed true to his commitment and signed with the Buckeyes.

Louis is a two-time All-State receiver and had 38 catches, 682 yards and 10 touchdowns as a senior for Atlantic High School. He was ranked as the No. 12 receiver and No. 80 overall player in the ESPN 150 recruit rankings.

OSU softball aims to be more than just a one-hit wonder sarah wilcox Lantern reporter wilcox.148@osu.edu For the Ohio State softball team, success is heavily rooted in determination — a determination to prove last year’s Super Regional berth was not a fluke and to show the country OSU can make it to the Women’s College World Series.

“That’s what we’ve been working for since the fall,” senior catcher Sam Marder said. “Just not being a one-year program team. We want to make a statement that we’re Ohio State softball and that we’re a really dominant program. Our main goal is to show the nation who we are and what we can do.

By going to the world series it’s definitely going to help.”

With a number of team goals

in mind for 2010, Coach Linda Kalafatis said beating Michigan is a No. 1 priority, coupled with Big Ten Title contention. Everything else is up to the passion of the players.

“I told the team that the program goals, they’re the same every year. They don’t change,” Kalafatis said. “Now what they want to do beyond that is their mission. That’s what they have to determine.”

And the team is determined to reach beyond last year’s potential.

At the 2009 Super Regionals in Athens, Ga. the Buckeyes lost in a best-of-three series to Georgia. The team’s 47-11 season set the record for second-most wins in program history at OSU. With a majority of the roster returning and the comeback of pitcher Lindsay Bodeker, the

team has matured a lot from the start of last season, Marder said.

“I definitely think that it helps that we’ve been there,” Marder said. “We’ve been to the Super Regionals. We know how it feels to play on ESPN. We know how it feels to be in that spotlight. Last year it was kind of new for everybody … and the team was pretty young. And so I think, since our team is older this year and has been there, we’re a really mature team and we know what it takes to get there.”

The team began preseason ball in Houston, Texas on Feb. 12 against Houston, Baylor, Kansas and Louisville universities. After a rough start in a 1-0 loss to Houston, the team found its rhythm and won four straight to place first in the tournament.

sports Big Ten swimming championships: What to watch for grant Freking Lantern reporter freking.4@osu.edu The No.9 Ohio State men’s swimming and diving team hosts the Big Ten Championships starting Wednesday. The event is four-day marathon with a multitude of races each day, culminating with an award ceremony Saturday evening. Here’s what to watch for…

Home sweet home For the fifth time, McCorkle Aquatic Pavilion will host a Big Ten or NCAA championship meet. Coach Bill Wadley said his squad is thrilled to be able to swim in their home pool.

“They’re excited. They’re not just ready, they’re looking forward to it,” Wadley said. “It’s really sort of a dream come true, to be able to host the Big Ten Championships in your own facility and to have this many upperclassmen all on the team.

We’re looking forward to having a great week and hopefully lots of fun, fast swimming.”

Senior Sam Pelkey said that

for the seniors to be at home for their last Big Ten meet means the world.

“Everybody’s really, really excited about Big Ten’s. It’s exciting to have it here at our pool, especially for the seniors,” said Pelkey, the reigning Big Ten Champion in the 200 breaststroke. “It means a lot to us to have our last Big Ten’s here.”

It’s now or never Swimmers pace themselves all year in anticipation for swimming their best times at the end of the season. It’s not uncommon for a swimmer to shave major time off their previous season-best times.

Senior Sam Pelkey believes the Buckeyes are in good shape for a successful weekend with plenty of fast times.

The team’s looking great, everybody’s looking really good, everybody’s healthy so that’s a really good thing,” Pelkey said.

“We’re looking to have multiple Big Ten champions.”

Winning the mental battle Great golfers believe they can sink the clutch putt. Great

basketball players know they can make free throws in the closing seconds of a tight game. Great swimmers aren’t any different.

“I definitely have confidence that I think I could win. I always go into every race thinking and believing that I can do it,” senior Joel Elber said. “I feel like if I don’t have that belief, if I feel like someone’s better than me, I’m already getting beat.”

Wadley echoes the sentiments of his two-time honorable mention All-American and team captain.

“If you don’t think you can win, then you probably are not going to win,” Wadley said. “You have to at least get up on the blocks and believe you have a chance. Our hope that is our guys get on the blocks and believe they have a chance.”

Realistic expectations Wadley’s squad is a confident and optimistic bunch. However, they are also realists. They know they have a tough hill to climb just to be close to Michigan at the end of the meet.

The Wolverines beat second-place Ohio State by

308 points in last year’s Big Ten Championships.

“I think that we do have shot.

To say that we have a good shot might be overstepping ourselves a little bit,” Pelkey said. “It will take a really phenomenal meet by us and maybe an average meet by them [for OSU to win].

But, I wouldn’t put us out of the hunt by any means, if things go right for us then we definitely have a shot.”

Wadley just wants his squad to take care of what they can control and lets the chips fall where they may.

“I think Michigan and Minnesota are probably the top two teams, hopefully we’re not far behind. Michigan beat everybody last year by 300 points and Minnesota disqualified a relay last year. Otherwise they would’ve been second,” Wadley said. “The plan is to be good, be fast and hope that that lands us near the top.”

Buckeye lacrosse team relying on defense for wins travis rockhold Lantern reporter rockhold.16@osu.edu Offense sells tickets, defense wins championships.

This is the thought shared by many, including Brandon Freeman, senior captain of Ohio State’s men’s lacrosse team.

The Buckeye’s offense has some firepower, but the defense is where the experience is at. On the offensive side of the ball, the Buckeyes have had to replace their two leading scorers from last year.

On the other side, the defense is loaded with talent, including three seniors who were

voted team captains. The defense is lead by Freeman, the goalie. The other two captains are Scott Foreman and Andrew Stimmel.

“Having all three captains on the defensive side puts a lot of pressure on us,” Foreman said. “But that pressure is what we want.”

Foreman and the rest of the defense found this pressure in their opening game of the season but overcame it. In a matchup that pitted two Top 10 teams, the Buckeyes topped No. 9 Villanova 10-8.

Winning close games is what Stimmel said the defense prides itself on. Stimmel added that when the defense comes up with big plays it builds confidence.

Another thing that helps out the defense is that they have all played together for a

while. Stimmel said the defense is able to take chances to make plays. Playing with each other for so long, the others know where their teammates will and can back them up.

This leadership to the lacrosse team is nothing new. Coach Nick Myers said the captains lead the team on and off the field.

“Last year’s team completed just under 400 hours of community service,” Myers said.

“This year’s seniors wanted to go over 500 and to date we are just under 550 hours.”

Freeman credited the past captains to making him a good leader. He said that watching them showed him how to be a better leader.

OSU has one of the toughest schedules in years and for them to succeed the defense will have to be near perfect.

Louis from 1B

Wide receiver

draws comparisons to former Buckeye wideout Santonio Holmes

James louis wr Height:

5’11”

Weight:

178

Yards:

682

Touchdowns: 10 forward,” Helwagen said. “Williams would be a split-end, Louis would be a flanker, and Brown is probably a slot receiver.”

Helwagen and Kevin Noon, managing editor of Buckeyegrove. com, said Louis reminds them of former Buckeye wideout Santonio Holmes, who also hailed from the South Florida area.

“They have similar build, above-average speed and do everything really well,” Helwagen said.

“The one difference is that James Louis is playing a step faster than what Holmes was coming out high school,” Noon said.

Louis, who was also a 2010 Under Armour High School All-American, is regarded as an all-around receiver who can do a lot of everything.

He is said to have good feet and great acceleration, as well as a nice frame to allow him to get stronger and add weight without losing his speed.

“He will be a factor as soon as he is able to reach the field,” Noon said.

Helwagen said that after Devier Posey and Dane Sanzenbacher, there is no certainty on the receiving depth chart, meaning Louis might have a chance to make an impact right away.

“You get beyond those two guys, and it gets completely wide open for who will be the three, four or five receiver.” Helwagen said.

“There are five or six guys that could step in and compete for those spots. It’s going to be tremendous to see in the fall who gets to play and if Louis can show the coaches he can do something in the offense, they’ll use him.”

When asked about the possibility of redshirting Louis next season, Noon said he doubted that would be the case.

“You never know when it comes to a redshirt,” Noon said. “But if I were a betting man, I would say he does not redshirt.”

While OSU may not have been Louis’ first choice, the fact he stayed true to his commitment to the Buckeyes after switching from Florida should be reaffirming for Buckeye fans.

If Louis is able to follow in the footsteps of Santonio Holmes by leaving Florida and finding success in Columbus, then the outlook should be bright for the Buckeyes.

shortstop alicia herron makes contact with the ball. the osu softball team is off to a 6-4 start after a pair of early-season tournaments.

Senior catcher

finds success at the plate during tournament in Houston critical in getting games in and rating percentage index ratings,” Kalafatis said. “Basically what we try to do in the preseason tournaments is to position ourselves against teams we know have done well in our conferences or nationally so that when you get into conference play our RPI is strong. Then we can worry about winning a Big Ten Championship while we’re in conference play.”

Marder had a big weekend in Houston, batting .500 through five games and recording six RBI. She now has 47 career homers after hitting four during the stretch.

Among the returning players from last season, senior Whitney Cooper takes the field playing second base. Having played shortstop most of her life, Cooper made the switch last year to second base and had her best season yet.

“I think last year I was a little nervous, a little excited at the same time. But it was the right move, best move for the team and I really enjoyed it,” Cooper said about the switch. “This year is another year. [I’m] just going to take it one game at a time, but hopefully it’ll be the same.”

With Bodeker’s return to the mound, Kalafatis said despite necessary improvement in hitting, she was happy with OSU’s pitching.

“I was very, very pleased with our defense and very,

very pleased with our pitching.

Maybe even a little surprised with our pitching just because Bodeker hasn’t thrown since last May and her knee has been in such question,” Kalafatis said.

“Sometimes you just don’t know what to expect from the young ones. But I thought they were in good command, the entire team, and they were really the leading group for the weekend.”

After placing second in the Hatter Invitational tournament in Deland, Fla. Feb. 19 through 21, Kalafatis has high expectations for this season and looks forward to the start of conference play March 23.

“If this first weekend was a preview for what they’re going to give us all year,” Kalafatis said, “we’ll definitely be in contention for a postseason spot and maybe one of those top eight.”

As a result, the two-time All American was named Big Ten Player of the Week.

“I was so proud of how our team played. You can’t do that individually — it has to do with what your team does and everything,” Marder said. “I’m just so happy we started off on a really good note … and we ended the weekend really strong. So I’m really excited to see what we do the rest of the year.”

Although records are “really fun to go after,” Marder remains focused on providing for her team. “[In] my senior year I’m just trying to really focus on leaving as good a player as I can possibly be,” she said. “Whether [or] not I break records is not as important as leaving knowing I did everything I could to help the program.”

Ohio State’s baseball team didn’t end the season how it wanted to, but it wasn’t a total failure going to Tallahassee, Fla., for the NCAA Regional.

The Buckeyes lost to Florida State 37-6 in a game the team would like to forget.

Recruiting visits in Tallahassee for the Buckeyes were more successful than the actual baseball playing. Manager Bob Todd was able to snag a right-handed pitcher and an outfielder, both from the same high school.

Outfielder Hunter Mayfield and pitcher Cole Brown both decided to leave Tallahassee to go north to play baseball.

For Brown, the decision to come to OSU to play baseball was a relatively easy one. Brown said Mayfield committed to OSU and then the coaches started pursuing him.

“I came up here on a visit,” Brown said. “I just loved everything about OSU.” Mayfield may have not been the reason for Brown to commit to OSU, but he has been helpful. Brown said that he and Mayfield have been friends since middle school.

Mayfield shared the same feelings, saying that it was nice to know at least one person at the start.

The Buckeyes will be making a series of trips back to Florida for tournaments over the next month and a half, and both are looking forward to those trips.

Unfortunately for Brown, playing time to start off the season will be limited. In his senior year of high school Brown only made two appearances because of an injury to his shoulder.

“I’m doing good. I am back to 100 percent,” Brown said. “Now I just need to get my velocity back.”

Todd spoke on Brown’s injury, saying he is going to bring him along slowly. Giving him the needed rest and rehab now, Todd is hoping he will be able to be used late in the season.

On the other hand, Mayfield said he has been told he might see some playing time early in the season. If he isn’t able to play, Mayfield said he is fine with that. He just wants to do whatever to help the team.

Whether the two see playing time or not, they have one positive thing to look forward to. With all the snow that Columbus received over the past few weeks, both are ready for warmer weather.

Brown said in Florida they get to play outside throughout the year, while here at OSU they have had to stick to practicing inside.

sports A letter to Tiger Woods sPorts Columnist

allyson kraemer kraemer.18@osu.edu

Nice try, Tiger.

That “press release” apology was less than amusing and far from convincing.

Sure, you admit that you are a disappointment, but you are more than a disappointment; you are a disgrace.

You apologized to your fans, co-workers and the millions of children who look up to you, but they do not accept.

Your foundation provided hope and education to millions of children, children who no longer look to you as a role model, but as a failure.

They will no longer cheer for you or support you.

We no longer have to question who you are. The media has exposed the true you.

You have the audacity to blame the media for the explosive controversy concerning your affairs. The media is not at fault, though. You are.

I’m sorry the media is following your children to school and stalking your wife. You should have considered how the ramifications of your actions would affect your family. You exposed your family to the public eye and it is your job to protect them, not the media’s.

You claim that your wife does not deserve blame, but deserves praise. I agree.

By no means are your extramarital affairs her fault, and on the same note she deserves

6B

more than praise. She deserves respect.

Who deemed you worthy of playing by these “different rules”?

You claim that you deserve to enjoy temptations because of money and fame. What you deserve is a one-bedroom apartment just big enough for you to write child support checks from. Your repeated irresponsibility has proven that you have blatant disregard for your wife, children, mother and friends, not to mention your sponsors and loyal fans.

Instead of convincing yourself that the rules do not apply to you, try convincing yourself that one day your children will be old enough to understand this, with the hope that they forgive you.

You put your needs above the needs of your family, and for that they may never forgive you.

The shame you have brought to your family will fade but will never disappear.

Take another good long look at yourself. I hope you see that your lying and cheating has earned you nothing but disgust.

Making amends? We just hope you don’t repeat those mistakes.

You say it is not what you achieve, it’s what you overcome.

You have achieved a lot, but you sure as hell have a lot to overcome.

You are correct. When setting an example, character and decency are what really count.

Your character will forever be tarnished and you have shown you have no decency.

Go back to your Buddhist ways. Stop following every impulse and restrain instead.

An indefinite leave of absence from golf is the understatement of the year. You can’t possibly be considering playing in the Masters in April, let alone at all this year.

It doesn’t matter how great

Trades from 1B

Torres

could bring Jackets most value in a trade

assists in 23 games this season are hardly eye popping. He does, however, have the Stanley Cup he won with the Tampa Bay Lightning in 2004 on his resume.

Jurcina figures to draw even less interest.

So if the Jackets decide to make a move, it will be Torres who will bring the most in return. He has 30 points in this year’s campaign, broken up between 19 goals and 11 assists. He is tied for second on the team in game winners, but those stats only tell part of Torres’ story.

Words like “gritty” and “grinder” are often bandied about in the vernacular of professional hockey, but rarely do they apply so well as they do with Torres. Time and again, Torres has shown a willingness to place himself in front of the net and do the dirty work for his team. He scores the kind of greasy goals that every true hockey fan knows are integral to a teams’ success.

While he may bring back some value to the Jackets in return for his services (most believe he would command a second, or late first-round pick), the intangibles he may impart to a young Jackets team if he were re-signed do not have a price tag.

But there is also a case against hanging on to Torres. Reports indicate that he could stand to make anywhere from $1.5 million to $2.5 million per season next year. For a team whose main priorities are a top flight center and a better blue line, that may be too much to pay.

“It’s been tough not knowing what’s going to happen,” Torres said of his situation.

Blue Jackets fans know exactly how he feels.

Comment on this story at thelantern.com

tiger woods poses after winning a tournament. of a player you are; you have single-handedly destroyed your character and furthermore your career. Do us all a favor and retire from golf all together. You have wasted more skill than any other one person. You bring nothing to the game but shame.

If you want your family, fans and the media to make room in our hearts to believe you, make your apology concrete.

As hard as it may be to express sincere regret in a press conference apology, the true testament to your apology with be followed by your actions.

That is why I’d like to see you remove yourself from the golf course long enough to prove to your wife that you love her and are committed to fixing your family.

Endless therapy is a good start, but spend every waking moment with your family. Show your wife that she is more important than therapy, golf and other women.

The public may one day believe that you are truly sorry, but by no means will we cheer for you again.
