About 40 protesters banging drums, shaking noisemakers and shouting chants rattled the walls outside Ohio State President E. Gordon Gee’s ofÿce Monday, but it’s not clear if the message they brought will resonate with the university administration. Nine protesters, including seven OSU students, were arrested during a sit-in outside Gee’s ofÿce in Bricker Hall. All nine protesters posted bail of $254 each and were released by 1:45 p.m. Tuesday. Ryan Marchese, a fourth-year in international studies, was one of those arrested. He is president of the group that organized the demonstration, United Students Against Sweatshops. He said he and the other protesters were separated and kept overnight at a Franklin County correctional facility on Jackson Pike. All nine were charged with criminal trespassing and one was also charged with resisting arrest after OSU police told the group to leave. Seven of those arrested were OSU students:

Marchese; Natalie Yoon, a second-year in international studies and USAS secretary; Carolynne Grace Jones, a student in public affairs; Casey Ellen Slive, a student in geography and international studies; Terasia Bradford, a student in French and globalization studies; Isaac Paul Miller, a student in exploration; Hutchinson Srisoontorn Persons, a student in philosophy. OSU police said the other two protesters arrested are not OSU students: Adrian Evangelos
Bradley Jusdanis, 21, of Columbus and Christopher Ian Wells, 28, of Stone Mountain, Ga. The nine were a small contingent of an estimated 100 protesters that USAS organized who gathered between Sullivant Hall and the Wexner Center for the Arts at about 2 p.m. Monday. After that rally, about 40 protesters entered Bricker Hall and crowded the area just outside Gee’s ofÿce in an effort to force Gee to address the group’s accusations against OSU contractor Sodexo, Inc. USAS has accused Sodexo of violating workers’ rights to unionize and of various other forms of worker mistreatment, including sexism and racism. “Sodexo is aware of what happened at OSU yesterday,” Sodexo spokesperson Jennifer Hart told The Lantern Tuesday. “Our position is that we believe this was provoked as part of an ongoing corporate campaign that the Service Employee International Union has launched against Sodexo.” The labor union and USAS have made similar claims about Sodexo. Hart said she is frustrated because the groups repeatedly make the same accusations.

As the trial run of extending William Oxley Thompson Memorial Library’s hours during Spring Quarter wraps up, it’s still unclear if the extended hours will continue next year. University ofÿcials said they will discuss the changes and it’s unlikely that a decision will be made before summer. In previous quarters, Thompson closed at midnight Sunday through Thursday, and stayed open until 2 a.m. during ÿnals week only. This spring, library ofÿcials agreed to keep the 2 a.m. closing time for the entire quarter, except for Friday and Saturday nights, when the library closes at 10 p.m. Joseph Alutto, executive vice president and provost of the Ofÿce of Academic Affairs, said ofÿcials will make a decision once they receive the director’s assessment of the temporary extension. “We will not begin to make an assessment until the quarter is over,” said Carol Diedrichs, director of university libraries. “At that time, we will pull together all of the data that we have gathered regarding usage and cost.” The Lantern reported in February that the experiment would cost an estimated $50,000 per quarter. If the hours remained permanent, this would mean it would cost the university an additional $150,000 per year. Library ofÿcials agreed to try to keep the library open longer at the urging of the Undergraduate Student Government last quarter. Kelly Kaltenbach, a fourth-year in psychology, said the extended hours come in handy during

Summer brings studies for OSU, COSI CAITLIN HILL Lantern reporter hill.855@osu.edu The warmer months in Columbus are often designated for picnics, swimsuits, baseball games and outdoor activities. This summer, however, a group of exercise science students are taking their activities indoors to COSI in a collaborative research attempt to examine and explain human body performance. A group of at least 10 Ohio State students will engage in several different research projects at the Performance Lab in the Labs in Life section of COSI. The lab, which opened in fall 2009 and consists of three glass-enclosed research areas and one glass-enclosed conference room, is fully viewable to the public and open to public participation. “Because of our unique location at COSI we are able to carry out research and utilize the public while sharing our research with the public,” said Carmen Swain, program director in sport and exercise sciences at OSU and director of the Human Performance Lab. The collaboration, which grew out of an effort from the upper administration at OSU and COSI to bring research into the community, began after ofÿcials on both sides reviewed surveys and questionnaires that showed a community disinterest in research, Swain said. Two studies scheduled for this summer will examine how promotion of physical ÿtness in men and women participants can reduce the likelihood of cancer. Chrissy Knopp, a third-year in exercise science education, and Erica Toivonen, a second-year in exercise science education, are receiving a Pelotonia research scholarship of $12,000 each for their work in the lab. They plan to test 300 participants ages 18 to 65 who are moderate to highrisk cancer subjects. “Reduce the Risk” plans to recruit 150 male volunteers who have a link within two generations to renal, colon or lung cancer and “One Goal” plans to recruit 150 women volunteers who have links to breast, uterine or colon cancer, as these cancers are highly correlated with physical inactivity in the respective sexes, Knopp said. Researchers will call on COSI visitors who are watching the research to volunteer. During the study, Knopp and Toivonen plan to test the participants’ ° exibility, resting heart rate, blood pressure, aerobic output and, with the help of the BOD

POD, an instrument that measures lean body mass and fat mass via air displacement, they will test each individual’s total body composition. Researchers said they hope the study will make participants more aware of their physical health and promote lifestyle changes that will reduce their risk for cancer. “We want to see after we test them if their intent to exercise increases. It is important in this population because these cancers are really highly correlated with physical inactivity. There is about a 25 percent decrease in getting breast cancer if you are physically active, which is huge,” Knopp said.

campus OSU names senior VP for administration JESSE O’NEILL Lantern reporter oneill.134@osu.edu Ofÿcials say an extra layer of administration and planning will soon be eliminated. Jay Kasey was named the new senior vice president for administration and planning at Ohio State, said Shelly Hoffman of OSU media relations. Kasey will be replacing Jeff Kaplan starting June 1. The Lantern reported April 27 that Kaplan was named senior vice president for university development, president of The Ohio State University Foundation and special assistant to the president after the death of Andrew A. Sorensen, who formerly held that position. Hoffman said Kasey will earn a yearly salary of about $409,000 in his new position. Kasey has been chief operating ofÿcer of the

COSI officials pleased with OSU collaboration efforts Elan Lieber, a third-year in exercise science education and researcher, also used COSI participants and the BOD POD for his similar study titled “Body Awareness: Improves Boys Intent to be Physically Active.” Lieber found that in boys ages 6-19, the intent to exercise increased from 66 percent to 90 percent after reviewing their individual test scores regarding physical activity. Lieber won ÿrst place in the Health Professions Clinical category at the Denman Undergraduate Research Forum on May 11 for his work on this study. “The most rewarding apsect of my research at COSI is the ability to have a positive impact on the community, whether it is from testing over 300 boys in my own research study and educating them on their ÿtness levels or giving a demo to 50-plus COSI visitors,” Lieber said in an email. “I’m sharing the knowledge I have learned in my studies at OSU to help them lead a healthier lifestyle.” All researchers at the lab conduct their own research and write their own proposals and manuscripts with the intent of getting their studies published or presenting them at national forums. “A unique aspect of this undergraduate research is they are not just taking a little part in some funded study that has already been started,” Swain said. Other research scheduled for this summer

And my relationship with Jay D. Kasey the Medical Center will help me work with leaders of the campus to get goals accomplished.” Kaplan said he recommended Kasey for the job of senior vice president for administration and planning to President E. Gordon Gee. “We’ve worked with him closely with the Medical

Some of these projects are still pending the approval of OSU’s Department of Education and Human Ecology. All of the scheduled studies are intended to have large-scale participation with 300-500 subjects, a participant base that might be hard to achieve in a traditional lab in a university setting, Swain said. “I know in my department, it is always a concern. Are you able to get your sample size? How are you going to recruit subjects? It’s always tough, but we have had no problem getting our sample size here,” Swain said. COSI ofÿcials are also pleased with OSU’s research presence in Labs in Life. “We are delighted to be working with Ohio State. Labs in Life shows science in action, and promotes outreach to the community while helping OSU recruit for their studies,” said Jaclyn Reynolds, public relations and social media manager for COSI. Swain said she believes the success of the collaboration in Labs in Life is due to the quality of undergraduate researchers and research in the Performance Lab. “Undergrads have unique perspectives that maybe faculty don’t have and being in a children’s science museum has been a really great place to have youth and good ideas,” Swain said. “That has really worked out here.”

Everyone saw he could bring a lot of talent to the job.” Kasey will be responsible for the facilities and space planning of the entire university as well as overseeing Facilities Operations and Development, Physical Planning and Real Estate, Public Safety, Transportation and Parking and UniPrint. Kaplan said the appointment of Kasey as senior vice president for administration and planning will eliminate an extra layer of administration they have to go through. In his new position, Kasey will do the Medical Center planning and administer university projects. Gee said in a May 23 press release that Kasey “will help Ohio State to become the national model for the physical integration of large, comprehensive universities.” Kasey received his undergraduate degree in

OSU contract with Sodexo runs through June 30, 2013 “No matter what we do to try to refute them, we don’t seem to be getting the same kind of traction,” Hart said. “By spreading unfounded allegations about how we run our business and how we treat our approximately 380,000 employees in 80 countries, this campaign is fueling protests that are based on an entirely inaccurate portrayal of Sodexo.” Marchese said SEIU was not involved in this event and that the union did not provide any ÿnancial or any other form of support. SEIU did not immediately respond for comment Tuesday evening. Still, Hart contends that Sodexo is a responsible business that respects and appreciates its employees. “We are proud of our 20-year partnership with Ohio State and are grateful to all of our employees who make it possible for Sodexo to provide great experiences with our customers and communities everyday,” Hart said. “Sodexo is very clear that we respect our employees’ right to vote for or against unionization in a federally-supervised, secret-ballot

USG will push to keep Thompson’s extended hours midterms and ÿnals, but she normally leaves at midnight because she doesn’t like to walk home late. “It sucks when you have to leave (at closing) and are still studying,” Kaltenbach said. Laura Knight, a second-year in biology, said walking home late doesn’t worry her. She said she relies heavily on Thompson Library for late-night studying as many as ÿve times per week. “I really hope they make it permanent,” she said.

USAS will remain steadfast in its efforts to oust Sodexo from the OSU campus, but there are no immediate plans for another protest, Marchese said. Last week, Western Washington University cut its ties with Sodexo. “Right now we have to focus on fundraisers. We have court tomorrow (Wednesday) morning to ÿnd out how much we have to pay in terms of ÿnes and court costs. That’s going to be keeping us busy,“ Marchese said. “But we are absolutely going to be putting pressure on our administration and showing them that students won’t be silenced until the contract with Sodexo is cut.” In an email to The Lantern, OSU spokesman Jim Lynch indicated the university is not planning on breaking its contract with Sodexo any time soon. “The university’s contract with Sodexo does not expire until June 30, 2013,” Lynch said. “Ohio State will continue to closely monitor the developing negotiations between SEIU and Sodexo.”
and vice president of USG, will continue advocating for what USG has worked to accomplish with the extended hours. “Ohio State students really appreciate having the newly renovated library and want to keep using it later at night,” Messenger said. “We really need to see how many students use the late night hours during exam week and in Fall Quarter before the university makes any decisions about closing it.” There are no permanent signs on the doors of Thompson indicating the revised hours, but signs about the changes are posted inside. DeDonato said a key aspect of USG’s success is marketing and getting the word out. “In order to keep the Thompson Library open until 2 a.m., we must continue to use the library between 12 a.m. and 2 a.m.,” DeDonato said. “Students must let others know about this recent change.” Sarah Pfledderer contributed to this story.

Who will become al-Qaida’s next leader? JAIME ORTEGA-SIMO For The Lantern ortega-simo.1@osu.edu After Osama bin Laden’s death, questions rose among
Wednesday May 25, 2011
experts about who would be the most likely candidate to ÿll his spot as leader of al-Qaida. “First and foremost al-Qaida has to choose a new leader; whoever succeeds bin Laden faces a formidable challenge.
Filling bin Laden’s shoes is by no means easy,” James M. Dorsey, a former foreign correspondent for the Wall Street Journal and professor at the University of Singapore, said in a May 4 email. After bin Laden’s death, Egyptian Saif al-Adel, who holds a spot on the FBI’s Most Wanted Terrorists list, became the interim leader of al-Qaida, but Dorsey stressed that his leadership is only temporary. “He’s an obvious choice given his military background. It’s too early to judge his longevity. Al-Qaida is focused on more existential issues at this moment,” Dorsey said. “Having said that, he’s highly respected and viewed as intelligent in addition to being an English speaker.” Peter Mansoor, chair of Military History at OSU, said in a May 5 email that Egyptian Ayman al-Zawahiri, who also holds a spot on the FBI’s Most Wanted Terrorists list, is without a doubt the candidate to replace bin Laden’s leadership in command. “Making al-Qaida palatable and acceptable to Arabs who have opted in mass demonstrations against violence and jihad
involves changes to the group’s ideology and strategy that may be beyond what (he) is capable of,” Mansoor said. Dorsey said in an email that al-Zahawiri is not the only candidate capable of ÿlling bin Laden’s shoes. “Al-Zawahiri is the leading contender but there (are) others,” Dorsey said. “Bin Laden wanted al-Qaida to become a broadbased (Islamic) movement and to do so, he did not appoint a successor, but furthered the careers of several younger militants.” Dorsey said another candidate to take over the spot of new chief of al-Qaida is Ayman al-Awlaki because large crowds of young Islamic radicals worldwide follow him throughout the “Internet in Europe and the United States.” “Awlaki is a charismatic Yemeni-American Islamic scholar who has been a successful recruiter for al-Qaida’s afÿliate in Yemen, al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP),” Dorsey said. Dorsey also named two other potential candidates he thought could be in charge of leading al-Qaida’s new operations. The
ÿrst is temporary leader al-Adel, a member of al-Qaida’s military committee, and the second is Abu Yahya al-Libi, a Libyan who gained battle experience with the Libyan Islamic Fighting Group (LIFG). Jonathan Schanzer, vice president of research for the Foundation Defense of Democracies, said bin Laden’s death makes al-Zawahiri the automatic candidate as new leader of al-Qaida. “With bin Laden’s death, al-Zawahiri automatically stepped up the ladder,” Schanzer said. Whether he can run the operations like bin Laden is a completely different story, he said. Schanzer said unlike al-Zawahiri, al-Alwaki has more prestige among jihadist groups. “Al-Alwaki is the most enterprising of all the leaders of al-Qaida,” Schanzer said. “Al-Zawahiri is part of the old guard, whereas al-Awlaki is part of a new guard or newer generation.” Schanzer said al-Awlaki is known for his involvement in terrorist acts and is wanted by the
U.S. authorities for his involvement in the Sept. 11 attacks. “He is a proliÿc person and made a number of attacks to build himself a voice globally,” Schanzer said. Stefano Casertano, professor of international studies at Potsdam University in Germany, said al-Awlaki is very dangerous. “As a former imam, he is capable of providing the organization with the spiritual leadership that died with bin Laden,” Casertano said in a May 9 email. “Nevertheless, it shall still be proven how much (al-Awaki) belongs to the actual organization of al-Qaida.” Casertano said al-Zawahiri has the talents to become a spiritual leader and ÿnancial leader as bin Laden once was. Al-Zawahiri is the logistical planner of al-Qaida, Casertano said, and the urgent issue now is keeping up with the funding. “The organization does not seem very permeable at allowing new people on the stop spots,” Casertano said. “Al-Qaida is not a U.S. corporation, open and meritocratic: it is a conservative and dogmatic gang.”

student voice To the educators: Thanks for nothing By now, I’m lucky if I remember every teacher and counselor’s name, let alone what they claim to have taught us students. I have attended two high schools and three colleges, so I’ve probably undergone this routine more than the typical student. Then again, I know from experience that these useless “ABC’s” dominate the school system. ---------OGT: The Ohio Graduation AMY MITTINGER Test was implemented in 2005 in mittinger.1@osu.edu Ohio to test students’ proficiency in five core subjects during their sophomore year of high school. If students did not pass every subject the first time, they could retake the needed section(s) until their senior year. They must pass all five subjects in order to receive their diploma, and would be “held back” until this was achieved. A reform bill was passed in 2009 by the Ohio legislature to eliminate this test and assess students differently, but will take several years to take effect. ACT/SAT: These two college entrance exams still prevail as determinants of students’ intelligence, and placement into college. GPA: This one number plays a role in admission into a specific college major, and sometimes the whole college. GEC: The General Education Curriculum is a set of courses outside a student’s major in college, designed to expose them to a variety of different topics. GEC requirements are slightly different among majors, and especially among OSU’s colleges. So students who change their
LANTERN Columnist
Welcome to Spring Quarter in great O-H-I-O. Did you enjoy another rousing year of meaningless memorization? If you’ve forgotten history dates or science terms from lectures already, here’s an idea: Just Google it. Whether we forget a fact in two days or two years, we can refresh our minds with the click of a button — assuming we need the information anyway. There is a bigger task at hand now. We must get involved with our community and loved ones — and more importantly, find a job. I worked my first full-time job last summer, and just in the nick of time. I needed a wake-up call before I graduate this spring. And boy, did I get one. I was a secretary at a nursing facility in my hometown. I was bombarded with questions about medical records and codes of conduct in the business setting, among others. I was initially stunned by my ignorance to issues that others face daily. Thankfully, my knowledge did improve while working. But it’s still not up to par. Why, you ask? Because I’ve fallen behind after jumping through hoops in high school and college, which diverted me from a true education. I did achieve my full potential throughout elementary and middle school. I have smart, compassionate teachers to thank for learning essential components of each core subject. From grammar rules to basic math functions, both during and after school hours, each teacher made his or her mark — so much that I keep in touch with most of them today, and it’s clear that their passion for learning hasn’t dwindled. But the downturn began in high school, and it’s taken a nosedive in college. I’ve lost track of the amount of hours I’ve heard educators rant about high school test scores (OGT), college entrance exams (ACT/SAT) and core class requirements (GEC).
majors find that they wasted time taking GEC classes that no longer pertain to their major, while new GECs are added to the list. --------------Of course certain benchmarks are needed to measure students’ intelligence. Yet they consume educators’ minds about their salaries and reputations, more than students’ minds about their own success. What happened to helping students become informed citizens during high school, or begin the fast track to a career in college? Instead, they are left arguing with admissions counselors about entrylevel requirements, and with professors about test scores — the dispute of which will go down the tube when they finally land a career. For me, most of this has gone down the tube already. But whether I forget lecture material in two days, or my classmate forgets it in two years, it’s only a matter of time before we all erase the pointless ABC’s of school from our memories. I know plenty of my classmates share my frustration, and have suffered worse consequences than me. Some will begin a fifth year in college after failing and repeating classes designed for Einstein. Others have been blatantly denied admission to the major of their dreams. I hope to make a mark on society, more than the high school OGT and ACT/SATs, and college GEC’s, and even GPA’s, have made a mark on me. But for now, I’ll focus my positive attention on graduating this spring — one year earlier than the rest of my high school classmates of ’08, or fellow ’08 graduates I’ve met here. No fault of my classmates, clearly. But to the educators, not so fast. This isn’t the first time I’ve ranted about the poor education system, and it may not be the last. So pardon me for being sour, but it’s about time this phrase comes back to you, because for once, YOU failed.
Opining on the ongoing Israel-Palestine conflict Hope a better resolution than hate Letter to the editor Last Thursday, President Obama addressed the nation and the world to express his views on recent events in the Middle East. He touched upon the momentous and overdue demands for freedom and democracy currently displacing brutal regimes around the region. Making special mention of the Arab-Israeli conflict, President Obama timed his pronouncement of American foreign policy to coincide with Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu’s visit to Washington this week. Regardless of which side one chooses to support or not support, President Obama made it clear that the current situation in the region cannot continue. However, with the current of change sweeping the region, now more than ever is the time to “cast off the burdens of the past” and move forward to a better future. That being said, Israel is here to stay, and as President Obama reiterated “efforts to delegitimize Israel will end in failure.” Unfortunately, that does not mean that there will not be such an effort. Last week and at other points during the year, multiple attempts were made on this campus to achieve just that. Claiming to commemorate the Nakba (“catastrophe” in Arabic, and Palestinian term for Israel’s establishment), the members of the Committee for Justice in Palestine (CJP) held events that spread a hateful and hurtful message aimed at delegitimizing Israel’s right to exist. During their Nakba week events, CJP and the speakers they host consistently demonized the Jewish state, its citizens, its soldiers, and by default — Jews. For example, a recent display on the Oval in which CJP members dressed up as Israeli soldiers depicted them wearing large Stars of David. The fictitious Jewish soldiers carried fake firearms and pretended to shoot at “school children” and passersby. Not only does this not depict reality and exploit legitimate Palestinian suffering, but it also creates a clearly slanderous image of all Israelis and Jews. CJP events consistently deny the fact that Israel is a thriving democracy, which offers full rights and representation to every citizen regardless of race, ethnicity, gender, sexuality or religion. More than anything, this message does not promote peace. It is impossible to ignore the suffering and emotions tied to both sides of this conflict. However, demonizing and dehumanizing the other side will never bring about a peaceful and tolerant solution in the region or on our campus. President Obama recalled the story of an Israeli father whose son was killed by Palestinian terrorists. Rather than channel his grief towards hate, he founded an organization that brought together Israeli and Palestinian families who lost children to conflict. “My answer to them is I shall not hate, but let us hope,” he said, “for tomorrow”. If Israeli and Palestinian parents, who have experienced the unthinkable throughout this conflict, can come together to understand and respect one another, why can’t we?

‘Apocalypse’ continues, but no one cares Letter to the editor “The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents.” This is a quote by the late, great horror writer H.P. Lovecraft which unfortunately holds true to this day. So many atrocities in the world go unreported and ignored, perhaps the worst of all being the Israeli occupation of Palestine. Thousands of innocent people have been slaughtered by one of the most advanced militaries of our time, but Palestine has been left to fend for itself. The few brave humanitarians that try to help are stopped by the Israeli blockade. Terrorists within Palestine only add fuel to the fire, as their idiotic attacks give Israel a right to claim this is all for self-defense. But bring up any stat sheet, and let me know how many of these terrorists have been killed compared to innocent civilians in the Gaza strip. And yet, our lives go on in blissful ignorance. It is up to us, as the civilized, democratic world, to take action and stop these massacres. As I type this, my fellow classmates are out playing Humans
vs. Zombies with their pretend guns and bullets, while Palestinian civilians take part in a very real war they have been forced into by commandoes armed to the teeth. Parties are broken up with tear gas because a bunch of inept drunks throw beer cans at police cars. The Lantern proceeds to devote numerous articles to this, as hospitals, schools, and places of worship are hammered into the ground by rockets. The average college student looks forward to the weekend so they can get wasted, while the average Palestinian is grateful for every day they survive. We complain about homework and finals when we don’t know how damn good we have it. We are able to go to school without worrying about a bomb dropping on our head. Think about that the next time you complain about it being too rainy to go to class. This is allowed to happen because we are LETTING it happen. Every time you buy a product with the bar code starting with the number 729 (The “Made In Israel” code), you could be funding a bullet that will find its home in the brain of a child. I beg
you all, please, please, don’t stand idly by while this happens. Find a charity, volunteer or at the very least, spread the word. You may be asking yourself, “Why? Why is this all happening?” Or, even worse— “why should I care?” To answer your question, this is happening because we are allowing it to happen. The end of the world must be right around the corner if we are so willing to let these heinous crimes against humanity go unchecked. As for the second question, well, don’t expect the world to suddenly come to an end. It’s been happening for a long time due to attitudes like that. The apocalypse is all around us, and no one cares.

FRIDAY Baseball: Big Ten Tournament TBA @ Columbus, Ohio (Huntington Park)
Buckeye baseball team collects 6 Big Ten honors TODD AVERY Lantern reporter avery.82@osu.edu First baseman and pitcher Josh Dezse was named Big Ten freshman of the year for Ohio State baseball (25-25, 13-11 Big Ten) Tuesday. Four other Buckeyes also earned Big Ten honors. Dezse led OSU with a .341 batting average and 42 RBIs and also went 4-1 on the mound with a team-high ÿve saves. He is the 10th Buckeye to win Big Ten freshman of the year. Dezse was also named to the All-Big Ten second-team with senior pitcher Drew Rucinski, who led the team as a starter with a 5-3 record and was third in the Big Ten with a 2.88 ERA. It was Rucinski’s ÿrst conference honor outside of academics. Dezse, center ÿelder Tim Wetzel and pitcher Greg Greve made the All-Big Ten freshman team. Wetzel hit .274 and scored 31 runs while Greve ÿnished the year 3-2 with a 4.74 ERA. Rounding out the awards was senior reliever Theron Minium, who was named one of 10 sportsmanship award honorees. OSU will begin the Big Ten Tournament as the No. 4 seed when they play No. 5 Minnesota at 12:05 today at Huntington Park in Columbus.
TODD AVERY Lantern reporter avery.82@osu.edu With the Big Ten Tournament starting today for Ohio State baseball (25-25, 13-11 Big Ten), the Buckeyes will give the ball to senior pitcher Drew Rucinski. Rucinski has been OSU’s No. 1 starter this season, posting a 5-3 record and ÿnishing third in the Big Ten with a 2.88 ERA. He was recently named to the All-Big Ten second-team along with ÿrst baseman Josh Dezse. The Buckeyes enter the tournament as the No. 4 seed and take on No. 5 seed Minnesota. If the Buckeyes are to win game one and avoid the losers’ bracket, they will need another strong outing from Rucinski. Coach Greg Beals said Rucinski has been an ace for OSU, and that’s what it needs him to be against Minnesota. “We just need Drew to be Drew,” Beals said. “He’s had one bad start all year long … so we just want him to go out and be himself and execute his pitch quality like he’s done all year long.” OSU won two of three games against the Gophers last weekend in the conference series ÿnale. The game they lost was the one Rucinski started. Rucinski threw eight innings, giving up only three earned runs on three hits. Fellow senior and co-captain outÿelder Brian DeLucia said Rucinski has pitched well in series openers. “I’m actually excited to see what he’s going to do against Minnesota again,” DeLucia said. “He knows all the hitters and the hitters know him, so it’s going to be a battle.” The Big Ten Tournament’s automatic NCAA Tournament bid could be OSU’s ticket to the postseason, and Rucinski said he believes the team can win the conference. “If we throw the ball well, our offense does its job and the defense plays well, we always got a shot to win it,” Rucinski said. “Hopefully we stay hot and keep doing it.” As for the pressure Rucinski faces going into the game, he said nothing changes with the way he prepares for a start. “Every start’s a big one, I feel like,” Rucinski said. “You want to give your team the best shot you possibly can. You go out there, throw strikes, don’t give anything away free, make them earn it, and let the defense work behind you.”

Senior pitcher Drew Rucinski earned 2nd-team All-Big Ten honors after finishing the regular season with a 2.88 ERA and 5-3 record. The relievers, such as redshirt junior reliever Andrew Armstrong, said they have faith their starter can get the job done. “It will get us off to a good start if he does well,” Armstrong said. “If he pitches long enough and pitches enough innings for us then it will keep our bullpen ready for the next couple of days as well.” If the bullpen isn’t overworked in the ÿrst game, it will be fresher later on. “The longer your starters can go, the better your bullpen is,” said pitching coach Mike Stafford. “If your starters don’t go that long — four innings, ÿve innings — you got to have four more innings with your bullpen. The longer
your starters go in the game, the stronger your bullpen becomes.” Stafford said Rucinski could pitch again later in the tournament. “His arm comes back pretty quick,” Stafford said. “Being a senior, being a Friday guy and preparing him for this moment, we feel like we’ve managed him enough where he can come back in three days and throw pretty well.” Senior inÿelder Tyler Engle summed up his team’s trust in Rucinski. “He’s our anchor and we’re all conÿdent in him,” Engle said. “Let’s hope he’s conÿdent in himself like he usually is. If he comes out and throws his game, we will be tough to beat.”
Senior leader pushes youth, never stops short ALEX KOPILOW Senior Lantern reporter kopilow.1@osu.edu With the Ohio State baseball team coming into the 2011 season with a new coaching staff and six ÿrst-time starters in the lineup, it’s imperative that there be senior leadership. Although senior shortstop Tyler Engle came into the year with the most games played for the team, he, like most of his teammates, struggled out of the gate. Engle has played in 190 games for OSU, starting 186. He made his ÿrst appearance as a Buckeye in the third game of the season against Seton Hall in 2008. He played his ÿrst game as the shortstop two games later, and took over as the starting shortstop that same year, March 9 against Connecticut. Through 18 games this year, OSU had an 8-10 record and was heading into Big Ten play with a weekend series against Northwestern. Engle went 1-for-3 as the Buckeyes had just defeated Xavier, 4-1, in OSU’s home opener. To that point, Engle was batting .214 and had racked up nine errors — both uncharacteristic numbers for the four-year starter. Before this season, Engle was a .252 career hitter and was coming off his best defensive season with just 10 errors. About the time of the Xavier game, Engle said he re-evaluated his season and decided it was time to step up his game as he had done many times for the Scarlet and Gray. He said he knew his days as a Buckeye were numbered. “It kind of hit me that I was having a rough year, and it’s about to end,” Engle said. “I only had so many days left to play as a Buckeye and play ball.” Coach Greg Beals agreed.

“They can see the light at the end of the tunnel, and they’re trying to push that light further and further away,” Beals said. “They want to play as long as they can, and they’re just playing with great determination.” As Big Ten play began, Engle became a threat with his bat at the bottom of the lineup. He had the second-highest batting average on the team and the highest among Big Ten shortstops this year, .353 against conference opponents. “My approach is different at the plate,” he said. “I like to be more patient than I used to be. I was scared of striking out, and now they’re a part of the game.” Beals said Engle and senior third baseman Matt Streng’s second half of the season made an impact on the team’s young lineup. During that time, Engle raised his batting average to .275, which is tied for fourth on the team. “We need that leadership,” Beals said. “We need those seniors to pull the younger guys that don’t have that experience yet. If you look back four weeks in the season, it has been a huge boost to us.” Engle’s performance in Big Ten games is one of many reasons the Buckeyes were able to get back into the conference tournament a year after they barely missed playing in it. Engle said last year was disappointing and that, although several people counted out OSU early in the season, he is thankful to the coaching staff for keeping the team focused enough to play until the end. “We have a lot of young guys playing, and as a team we have never really thought that way,” Engle said. “The coaches would not allow us to get that way. They deserve a lot of credit for getting our minds right.” The Buckeyes begin the Big Ten Tournament at 12:05 p.m. today against

Amid the biggest scandal in the football program’s history, there is a silver lining for the Ohio State athletic department. A record 523 scholar-athletes were honored Monday night for academic achievements, including 40 from the “corrupt” football program. Cornerback Chimdi Chekwa, who was drafted by the Oakland Raiders on April 30, was one of ÿve male ÿnalists for the Big Ten Medal of Honor for his success as an honors student in accounting and his on-ÿeld play. OSU football also was honored by the NCAA on May 17, receiving public-recognition awards for the team’s academic progress rate from 2006–10. These awards are given to teams in the top 10 percent in each sport. OSU football was one of 14 BCS schools that received this award. Northwestern was the only other Big Ten school to earn it. Four other sports at OSU — baseball, men’s gymnastics and men’s and women’s tennis also were awarded for their academic progress rates. For all the trouble the athletic department and football program are in, the coaches of each team have obviously set high academic standards for their players. Absent from the list of BCS schools honored are football powerhouse schools from the SEC. The only SEC school honored was Vanderbilt, far from a contender in the conference. OSU’s multiyear APR is 985, 15 points short of a perfect 1,000 and 36 points higher than the average of all Football Bowl Subdivision schools. That the football team has attended a BCS bowl each of the past ÿve seasons and that its players have exceeded 90 percent of FBS schools in the classroom, is unbelievable — despite the controversy surrounding the program. Since 2006, the lowest score coach Jim Tressel and his football team received in the single-year APR is 984, which is still in the top 10 percent of all FBS schools. In the same amount of time, Alabama coach Nick Saban has achieved a single-year APR of more than 980 just once. In 2007-08 he recorded a score of 936. Tressel has been both a winner at OSU and a mentor beyond football. When evaluating The Vest’s job status and his body of work, it is important to remember he has made sure his players lived up to their title of student-athlete.

Senior shortstop Tyler Engle led the Buckeyes back to the Big Ten Tournament race, and his .275 batting average is tied for 4th on the team. Minnesota, and, for most of the team, it will be the ÿrst time playing postseason ball at the Division I level. It will be Engle’s sixth conference tournament game. Engle hails from the small town of Beverly, Ohio, about two hours southeast of Columbus. Playing at a big university such as OSU was a big deal for his hometown. When he signed with the
Scarlet and Gray four years ago, it was front-page news in The Marietta Times. He said there would be a big Beverly crowd in the stands at Huntington Park and that he is happy his friends and family will be there. “It’s just a great atmosphere,” Engle said.

After 25 years on air and about 4,560 episodes, “The Oprah Winfrey Show” is coming to an end. Fans, celebrities, previous show guests and friends and family of Oprah Winfrey filled Chicago’s United Center Tuesday for the taping of the “The Oprah Winfrey Show” finale which will air today. Celebrities and viewers paid tribute to Oprah during the two-part event, “Surprise, Oprah! A Farewell Spectacular,” last Monday and Tuesday. Some of Winfrey’s most notable guests for the episodes, included Tom Hanks, Diane Sawyer, Tom Cruise, Madonna, Halle Berry and one of Winfrey’s all-time favorite guests, Jacqui Saburido. Saburido was a young woman from Venezuela who traveled to Texas in 1999 to study English and survived being hit by a drunk driver. In an online farewell video, Winfrey said Saburido’s story encompassed everything her show has stood for the past 25 years. Frank Willson, director of operations at 10TV, said Winfrey has provided great programming for years. “We’re sad to see her go, but we’re enthused with the show we’ll be putting in its place,” he said.
Beginning on Sept. 12, the medical talk show “The Dr. Oz Show” will be taking the 4 p.m. daily time slot on 10TV. Stephen Coan, a second-year in economics, said he thinks it would be interesting to see how the audience changes as Winfrey’s show is replaced. “He’s (Dr. Oz) a medical guy,” Coan said. “It’ll be interesting to see how much that would drop off. It’s more specific than what Oprah did.” Winfrey’s youngest former guests and viewers paid tribute to her impact on their lives. Members of the U.S. military also filmed messages of thanks. Women from around the world sent in videos sharing what Winfrey’s work meant to them, and fans were encouraged to sign “Oprah’s Farewell Season Guest Book” on her website. Musicians such as Josh Groban, Beyonce and Rascal Flatts made special performances. Celebrity guests shared stories and personal tales of their times with Winfrey. The loss of Oprah might have some impact on ratings for the WBNS station, Willson said. “Change is difficult,” Willson said. “Whenever there is a change in the market, it takes a long time for a viewer to follow that change. We are going to use every property in our company to make sure that we can promote the fact that ‘Dr. Oz’ is moving over to Channel 10.”
While a loss of ratings could result in loss of revenue, Willson said it was impossible to predict if they would lose money at this point. Ann Fisher, host and executive producer of “All Sides with Ann Fisher” on WOSU 89.7 FM, said she never had a chance to watch the show but she thinks ratings will definitely go down. “I don’t think anyone can replace her,” Fisher said. “Unless they hire me, of course.” While Willson said 10TV was disappointed in the show ending, it was not surprised. He said he thinks Winfrey will continue to be relevant. “She is still far and away the No. 1 program at 4 (p.m.),” Willson said. “She has the ability of getting any A-list star or leader or whatever. If she wants them on the show, they will be on the show. I think she will continue to be relevant for years.” Now that her daytime talk show is over, Winfrey is pursuing her own television network called OWN, which stands for the Oprah Winfrey Network. Lamma Johnson, a first-year in English, said she thinks Winfrey’s new station may affect others when it comes to ratings. “Ratings might also go down once she gets her own network and people are tuning into that instead of other stations,” Johnson said.

Sitting on a park bench in Denver, clutching an iced coffee with squawking birds surrounding him, drummer Jason Sechrist was preparing to head to Ohio. Sechrist is a member of the band, Portugal. The Man, which will be performing tonight at 8 p.m. at Outland Live in downtown Columbus. The band’s sixth full-length album, “In The Mountain In The Cloud,” will be released on July 19. This is the first album produced with Atlantic Records and was recorded across the nation in cities such as New York, Los Angeles, San Diego, Seattle and El Paso, Texas. “There are different inspirations from weather and atmosphere and different vibes from the country. We had a lot of Southern California, we had the heat of Texas, we had the rain of Seattle, and even in Portland, we finished some tracks in our basement,” Sehcrist said. “The recording … feels like a bit of all of the country.”
He said the band members are big fans of the rock band Pink Floyd and their influence is evident in Portugal. The Man’s progressive indie-rock music. The synthesized sound elements enhance their music, which is similar to the sound of bands like Minus the Bear and Kay Kay and His Weathered Underground. The album’s first single, “Got It All (This Can’t Be Living Now),” is available for download on iTunes. This single and the closing track, “Sleep Forever,” are on the band’s YouTube page, along with 30-second previews of four other tracks. Originally starting in Wasilla, Alaska, Portugal. The Man is now based in Portland, Oregon, but has been touring across Europe and North America over the past five years, performing more than 800 shows. The lighting, mood and even performance mistakes make up their show, highlighting the art angles of stage production and vocal effects, Sechrist said. “We want the experience to go beyond just playing the album from start to finish … as long as you come out with a smile on your face,” he said. The band has made multiple appearances
at major music festivals such as Lollapalooza and Bonnaroo, where they’ll be playing again this summer. Most recently, Portugal. The Man performed at the South By Southwest conference held in Austin, Texas. Sechrist said music festivals are an opportunity to showcase the group’s music to a broader audience. “That’s the cool thing about festivals, they’re like a celebration sampling platter,” he said. Sechrist said Portugal. The Man had been on a few smaller indie labels in the past, but its deal with Atlantic Records is the group’s first time signing with a major label. Fans of indie bands occasionally fear their favorite group “selling out,” but Sechrist said most bands deal with it. “There’s not much you can do about it. You can stay true to your roots by not letting go of the things you do live,” he said. Sechrist said Portugal. The Man spent a lot of time in Ohio while touring during their first couple years, and the state is a hotter spot of support.

arts&life lantern cd reviews Though not peppy, Gaga’s album born to succeed
Vanessa Spates Senior Lantern reporter spates.3@osu.edu Calling Lady Gaga’s second studio album, “Born This Way,” a pop album is a bit of a stretch. Listeners will hear techno fused with a mariachi band, Goth rock mashed with funky beats, electric guitar over smooth jazz and so much bass that it shakes the room if loud enough. Gaga promised something different for her fans and she provided it. The album is a roller coaster ride of throbbing dance beats and chilling instrumentals. It kicks off with “Marry the Night,” which opens with haunting organ-like keys and ends with the anthemic “The Edge of Glory.” Some songs can be preachy and others extremely juvenile, but the album as a whole flows together in a cohesive stream. The high points of the album include, “Americano,” “Scheiße,” and “Bloody Mary.” They’re definitely stark contrasts to each other, but powerful in their own ways. From preaching about illegal immigration to women’s empowerment to creating your own fantasy world, these songs present a small peek into the very strange mind of the woman who calls herself “Mother Monster.” The weakest songs are easily
Indie pop group’s go fosters hipster qualities Grace Ellis Lantern reporter ellis.489@osu.edu
“Born T his Way” L ady Gaga
“Born This Way,” “Hair,” and “Fashion of His Love.” In her attempt to get her various points across, Gaga comes off too literal and mildly foolish. Some songs sound like they were written by Paula Abdul and others feel like they were ripped from a Tori Amos-Madonna mashup. The biggest issue with a majority of the tracks on the album is that they’re not fit for radio play.This album is Gaga’s manifesto and she shows that through the tough topics in the album. She even attempts three different languages besides English to show how much she cares. She experiments so much with her vocals that it ensures that every song sounds different than the one before it. If someone prefers peppy, party songs about getting drunk and dancing in a club they might want to look elsewhere. This album is a different kind of poison.
In the band’s full-length first album, Foster the People came to dance like the hipsters they are. Formed in 2009, Foster the People has been on the fringes of the indie-pop scene. “Torches” is the band’s first grab at the spotlight, and their effort is impressive. If indie-pop music were a dessert buffet, “Torches” would be an apple pie: classic, sweet, not too fancy but easily enjoyed by most. It’s not really original, but people will eat it up. It’s not heavy music. It floats, it bounces and it makes you want to move. By definition, it’s exuberant summer pop. Fans of MGMT and Hot Chip will find it easy to slide into the electronic-influenced pop beats, and the band’s subtle paired harmonies are reminiscent of Passion Pit at its finest. The album’s lead single, “Pumped Up Kicks,” is a lighthearted jam with an addicting hook and a chorus you can whistle on your way to class. That being said, like most of the songs on the album, the lyrics are intelligent and unexpected, while the song is about a homicidal teenager.

The juxtaposition the song establishes is striking and a little startling, but the bouncing melody and the dark lyrics play well together. Lead vocalist Mark Foster exercises great vocal control, swinging from ethereal to punky with relative ease but his Achilles’ heel is his falsetto. The album’s biggest weakness is clearly its repetition. The individual songs are great for the most part, but after multiple listens, all of the tracks blend together. Already settled comfortably into international charts, Foster the People’s “Torches” could be among the biggest indie successes of summer. The album’s brilliant opening track, “Helena Beat” is free on iTunes this week, and Spinner. com is streaming the entire album for free this week.
King Creosote album almost mines diamonds “Diamond Mine” King Creosote & Jon Hopkins
Grace Ellis Lantern reporter ellis,489@osu.edu The album opens with ambient noise. The chatter and clamor of a Scottish café runs over of a melancholy and haunting piano melody. It’s an unusual beginning, but then again, it’s an unusual album. “Diamond Mine” by King Creosote and Jon Hopkins is the product of seven years of arranging music, singing and recording the slew of noises that weave the album together. The resulting album is a touching, delicate ode to Scottish living that meanders, albeit in the best way possible. Listening to the album feels like pulling on a pair of well-worn boots: It takes a second or two to get into it, but once you’re comfortable, it feels cozy. The album is the sort of piece to play on a quiet night with a good book or a good friend. The album ebbs and flows with irregular peaks; the best parts often aren’t full songs, but portions of songs here and there. One of the cuts, “Bats in the Attic,” was recorded in an abnormal way: They recorded the guitar part and then played it back through a mobile phone to degrade the quality, according to an interview with DrownedInSound.com.
Because there is so much background noise, the tracks aren’t linear. There are often several minutes of sounds between the actual songs. “John Taylor’s Month Away,” for example, takes a fourth of the song to wind down after the vocals are finished. This can be annoying at times, but there isn’t really a break in the action. The entire album runs seamlessly in a way that listeners aren’t necessarily used to. Creosote’s strong Scottish accent is a treat to listen to, although there are moments where he’s simply incomprehensible, When the lyrics can be understood the poetry is beautiful. “Diamond Mine” is worth listening to, if only to prove to your friends that “Born This Way” wasn’t the only new release this week.
Website allows Columbus social media users to connect Sara Bradley Lantern reporter bradley.249@osu.edu Social media sites have become a main form of communication. Cbusr is localizing that. Cbusr co-founder Matt Martindale saw opportunity in Columbus as well. When he came up with the idea for Cbusr, he was a Columbus newcomer who was having trouble making connections with people who he felt were similar to him. He knew there had to be a solution. Cbusr offers an online database for people living in the area. The difference between Cbusr and other social media websites is that it encourages users to do less communicating online and more in person. “We believe being a gateway to offline interactions is the better solution,” Martindale said in an email. “At the end of the day, it’s in our human nature to desire face-to-face experiences with other people.”
Some residents saw the potential for such a website. “I moved to Ohio seven-and-a-half years ago from New York,” said Rick Gethin, Internet entrepreneur and Cbusr user. “I noticed there are very vibrant social and small business scenes, as well as an abundance of tech knowledge here.” George Adams, a fifth-year in biology, said in an email that Cbusr exceeded his expectations. “I was expecting to see a site where people communicate to each other online,” Adams said. “Instead, it’s meant to keep people off the site and meet in person. The only online communication is compliments.” Members can browse the site by neighborhood, activity, new members and tags. Professions vary from students, designers and bloggers to magicians, artists and more. Members’ profiles are identified using handles similar to those used on Twitter. Like everything else on the site, the handles transition to real life. At Cbusr events meant to encourage mingling,
members wear their handles on their name tags. Events are held monthly and vary by location in an effort to not only expand peoples’ social circles but also to introduce them to new areas of Columbus. Currently, members can arrange to meet people outside of events, but must do so on their own. Some users aren’t completely fond of the site. “I feel like some people who are joining it, are using it as a dating site,” said Bobby Roberts, a local accountant and freelance writer and Cbusr member.
Adams, however, said Cbusr is a breath of fresh air. “I think if it weren’t for Cbusr’s simplicity, this site would not have that uniqueness about it. I don’t go on the site often, but regularly I’ll hop on to see who’s new, who wants to meet me, and the new events that are scheduled,” Adams said in an email. Chelsea Castle contributed to this story.
Portugal from 1B
Band’s single was out for nine months before a radio station in Portland picked it up “We’re big fans of Ohio … I think college towns usually vibe really well in that area,” he said. The song “All Your Light (Times Like These)” from the new album is one of Sechrist’s favorites to play. “Sometimes you’ll like an album version of something that you’ve done, but sometimes you’ll end up falling in love with a live version of a different tune entirely,” he said. “That might be because of an improv jam session … or something cool that kind of alters the song.” Synthesizer and drum intros are a couple types of changes the band makes to their live performances. Sechrist said the group has considerably altered songs like “Shade” and “My Mind” from 2007 album, “Church Mouth,” for their live shows. But this isn’t the case for every song. “You don’t want to butcher or hack up every song with weird instrumentation all the time. Sometimes we’ll just play a song as it is, more slow as it goes on the record,” he said. Kenji Berg, a fourth-year in operations management, said he has been listening to Portugal. The Man since 2007, and the band’s live alterations are what make the performances amazing. “When they do their transitions between songs, they’ll usually incorporate little mini jam sessions, maybe two or three minutes long,” Berg said. However, the transitions are natural and don’t interrupt the flow of the music, Berg said while casually throwing in expletives about exactly how amazing the band’s performances are. Berg said he has listened to the sample clips from “In The Mountain In The Cloud” on the band’s website. He said he thinks the music sounds like
2B
a combination between two of the bands previous albums, “The Satanic Satanist” and “American Ghetto.” “Seems to me like … they’re still sticking to their core sound and the familiar Portugal. The Man that I know,” he said. Portugal. The Man’s current single, “People Say,” from the 2009 album, ”The Satanic Satanist,” was recorded in Boston, but was out for about nine months until a radio station in Portland picked it up, Sechrist said. Berg said he’s heard the song on the radio in Columbus a few times, but he can’t believe the band doesn’t have more recognition Berg said he thinks the group’s deal with Atlantic Records will help promote the music, but he also hopes the band will stay in control of the creative process. When asked if he had any expectations for Wednesday’s show, Berg said he had only one: “getting his mind blown,” he said. “It’s one of the best live shows I’ve been to,” he said. “You can tell that they know each other really well and have a really good connection.” Mikayla Polacsek, a second-year in nursing, said she first heard of Portugal. The Man from a friend last spring. “I’m into indie music, so I had heard similar sounds, but I still really like them and thought they were a lot of fun,” she said. Polacsek said she thought there was potential for the charismatic band’s music to change after signing with Atlantic Records, but doubts there will be any dramatic differences.

Portugal. T he Man is scheduled to perform today at 8 p.m. at Outland L ive. Since Outland Live is a small venue, Polacsek said she thinks the concert will be more intimate. “Any seat in the house is pretty much going to be a good one,” she said. “I’m just going to have fun and listen to a band that I really enjoy.” Doors will open at 7 p.m. at Outland Live, located at 95 Liberty St.
