A new tool for Ohio State students to use in planning for the semester conversion is not yet being utilized by students. Myswitch.osu.edu, a website created by the Undergraduate Student Government, was made to help students understand how the quarter-to-semester switch will affect them in the aspects of academics, athletics and around campus. The main goal is to help students transition easily during the quarter-tosemester switch beginning Summer Quarter 2012. “I haven’t followed it that much,” said Trey Schafer, a third-year in business. Schafer said there have been countless emails, presentations during orientation and even booths on the Oval to inform people about the conversion, but the switch is not a concern of students right now. Schafer said there is a lot of other stuff that students have going on.

Nick Messenger, USG president, said he was not surprised that many students have not visited the website. “As the year goes on, we will see more students using the website,” Messenger said. “My guess is that we will see more traffic in week five or six.” Messenger spoke to The Lantern about the progress of the website

thus far. He said the website turned out better than he thought because it included information from different departments. Messenger said the website was created by Student Life Information Technology, and the total cost to create it was $3,862.50. The website has tabs that explain how the semester change will affect

many areas such as study abroad, finances and living. There is advice about graduating under both systems, quarter and semester, and what students need to do to ensure a smooth graduation under either system. There is also information about living on- and off-campus both during the conversion and after the switch. Myswitch.osu.edu has received more than 4,000 hits within the first week-and-a-half of classes, Messenger said. Messenger said he understands why students aren’t visiting the site yet. He said students probably won’t focus on the semester switch until it’s time to start scheduling classes again. Brady Klein, a first-year in marketing, said he agreed that it is too early to think about the switch. “Maybe not right now, but people will use it when it is closer to that time,” Klein said. In Summer 2012, the seven-week summer term will be followed by a 14-week autumn 2012 semester, according to the Office of Academic

Interracial marriage between blacks and whites has been on the rise in the U.S. since 1980, according to a study conducted by Ohio State professor of sociology, Zhenchao Qian. Qian hypothesizes that the smaller the barrier between racial ethnic groups, the more likely they are to intermarry. Using about 3 million people from the U.S. Census Bureau, Qian was able to analyze the data and notice changes in race relations over a period of almost 30 years. A white person is still most likely to marry another white person. This is likely due whites being the majority population in many areas, according to Qian’s study. This tendency to marry within one’s racial group is true of almost all other racial groups as well. Aside from American Indians, in which about half marry whites, races are most likely to marry among themselves than among other racial groups. One possible reason for intermarrying different races is population size, according to the study. If there are not many suitable options for marriage within a race, a person might turn to other races to find a partner. Another possible reason for interracial marriage is integration, the study said. “American Indians tend to be more integrated over time, especially those who live in large cities and metropolitan areas. They’re far more integrated than those living on reservations or tribes,” Qian said. The same trend can also be seen with other races. If certain racial or ethnic groups stay in a secluded community as opposed to an integrated city, they’re more likely to intermarry, according to Qian. Socioeconomic status and education also play a role in interracial marriage. “What we found is the more educated a person

is, the more that person is involved in an interracial marriage. This is not only true for minorities but also true for whites,” Qian said. When people are educated about another culture or race, they are less likely to be ignorant and integration becomes easier, according to the study. Sheila Smith, wife of OSU’s athletic director Gene Smith, said their family exemplifies interracial marriage. Gene Smith is black, Sheila Smith is white. “My husband and I work with a group of young African-American males on campus, and we listen to their stories. Yes, ignorance still exists,” Sheila

Smith said in an email. “When you recognize it as ignorance it is easier to rise above it.” Sheila Smith said the best way to combat ethnic ignorance is education, which mirrors the findings of Qian’s study. “Education, as always, is the key to fostering understanding and mutual respect,” Sheila Smith said in an email. Caitlin Po, a fourth-year in biology, said that OSU is a great place for cultural integration. Po’s parents are in an interracial marriage. “I think it is really important for understanding

THAILYR SCRIVNER Lantern reporter scrivner.2@osu.edu Information concerning housing and dining services can now be found on one website, urds.osu.edu instead of two separate sites, housing.osu. edu and food.osu.edu. Although the site is currently live, Cheryl Lyons, associate director for University Residences and Dining Services, said the process for building the new website is still going on. She said they will continue taking feedback from students, parents and staff, and make changes throughout the upcoming months to make the site more accessible and easier to navigate. “I think part of building a brandnew website is knowing that it will continue to grow as time goes on,” Lyons said. URDS, comprised of both housing and dining, is a part of the Office of Student Life. The new website launched the day before classes started and features

more graphics and photographs, as well as the ability to have important announcements and reminders highlighted on the main page. This component was not available in the previous design. Ideas were thrown around for about a year before coding and design started a few months ago, according to Lyons. All campus locations are grouped into a database so that students can click their location and see which dining options are available in that area. The same applies for the learning communities, which can be searched for associations such as Honors and Scholars. Karri Benishek, marketing manager for URDS and the leader on the redesign team, said the last setup of a two-website structure had been in place for at least seven years. Benishek said distinguishing between a current, future or regional student was one feature that was taken off the site due to confusion for students. She said each of these categories gave different information

and it was often hard to connect the statuses with the results. “We really just wanted to streamline copy and categorization so that people can do what they need to faster,” Benishek said. Needs of the site were prioritized with the Student Life Information Technology Department to develop the best results with the three areas within the housing and dining

departments: residence life, workers in residence halls and dining facilities. The department had been consolidated for two years before implementing a redesign of the website. “It really just created a lot of confusion for students,” Benishek said. She said students’ emails sent from either the housing or dining

Open containers on campus There were 38 open container violations on campus on Saturday, Sept. 24, according to OSU Police reports. The Ohio Revised Code 4301.62 regulates where open containers of beer or intoxicating liquor are prohibited, according to the Ohio Department of Commerce’s website. Open containers are prohibited in any public place in Ohio. All of these open container violations occurred on campus during, before and after OSU’s home football game.

Panera Bread under construction on Lane Ave. on Tuesday Sept. 27, 2011.

Panera bakes up new café on Lane and an obvious goal was to target this university area,” Stewart said. The proximity to some classes might sway students to go to Panera. “Since I’m in the business school and it’s right there, it will just be convenient,” said Bradley Patter, a fourth-year in marketing, who currently eats at the south campus location once or twice a week. “I thought it was kind of weird at first (having two locations), but I think it will actually work out.” The amount of free parking available might also prove to be a factor. Panera leased 92 spaces behind the building for customers. “I think they’ll have more parking and stuff if I wasn’t going to walk there,” said Ariana Sanders, a fourth-year in history. “That way you won’t have to use the meters.” Arlington Construction Inc. has been constructing the approximately 8,500-square-foot building for six weeks. The new location is just more than a mile from the current campus location on N. High Street. Stewart thinks the new café will only “initially be of some affect” to the current one. Jeff Berner, assistant manager for the N. High Street location, said he doesn’t feel that his location will suffer in the amount of foot traffic. “I think both stores are going to do quite a bit of business,” Berner said. Stewart agreed, and said the close proximity of the new store could benefit the company. “I think that having two stores will help promote the brand name,” Stewart said. Stewart said he’s excited to start building relationships with student workers.

different people to understand the culture that they come from,” Po said. “One of the best ways that I’ve found (to do this) is through personal relationships.” According to the study, the most substantial increase in interracial marriages was among AfricanAmericans. In 1980, the rate of interracial marriage was 3 percent and it rose to 10.7 percent by 2008, according to the study. The study also said immigration can greatly affect interracial marriage rates. Qian noticed a slight dip in interracial marriages among Asians and whites and also a minute increase in interracial marriages between Hispanics and whites. This is likely due to the influx of Asian and Hispanic immigrants since 1980, according to Qian. People typically like to marry someone with a similar cultural background, Qian suggests the great numbers of immigrants enabled this.

management and sociology at Cornell University, said this study suggests there is a higher racial tolerance. “There wasn’t a great increase in black immigrants into the United States, so the rise in black-white intermarriages really suggests greater racial tolerance and a new openness to marrying outside one’s own race,” Lichter said in a press release. “This suggests a weakening of the racial boundaries.” Despite racial barriers being torn down, there is still a lot of work to be done toward complete tolerance, according to Sheila Smith. “With each generation, it seems that civil rights – human rights – for all people become more embedded in the norm. It’s called progress,” Sheila Smith said in an email. With OSU being such a diverse campus, it is a great way to assimilate other cultures. “College campuses are really a place that there are a lot of opportunities for interracial contact and a way for a better understanding of people’s different races,” Qian said.

student voice $6.3M more than enough dough to feed the family for increasing taxes on those with an income of more than $1 million. During the interview, Fleming said that the taxes won’t create new jobs and wont leave small business owners with enough to reinvest into their businesses. “The amount that I have to reinvest in my business and feed my family is more like $600,000 of that $6.3 million,” he stated. “So by the time I feed my family I have, maybe, $400,000 left over to invest in new locations, upgrade my locations, buy more equipment.” Even taking his word that $6.3 million can go down quickly after paying rent for the store front, paying employee wages, resupplying his Subway chains with food, and his UPS stores with boxes, I’m having a hard time buy what he is selling. According to the Census office, the national average income for an entire

family in 2008 was $61,521. Congressman Fleming is making more than ten times that amount by himself. Additionally, how does one spend $200,000 feeding their family? As a college student living in an apartment, I need about $200 a month for groceries, if that. Assuming a six-person family would spend seven times that amount, when calculated over 12 months, groceries run up a tab of only $16,800. This still leaves $183,200 of money only spent on “feeding his family.” You can get a lot with $183,200. You could buy, for example: six new Macbook Pros; six new iPads; three 60-inch, ultra-thin, Samsung 3D TVs from Bestbuy; one year of out-of-state tuition to Ohio State; an Xbox 360 with Kinect starter bundle; 12 months of Xbox live; two 2012 Sea-Doo jet skis; and a 2012 BMW X6 with more

Due to my professional obligations, I cannot “pick a side” when it comes to politics. If I did, then I would never be able to cover politics again in a supposedly objective manner, the fear being that I would some how paint one party more negatively or another more positively. Sometimes I want to express my opinions on some topics, but I must hold it in. I’m pretty sure, however, that when a congressman says that his $6.3 million income is more like $600,000, and after “feeding his family,” he barely has $400,000 left over, and he believes that this is not much money, I am allowed to say that the aforementioned congressmen has lost touch with reality. On Sept. 20, Congressman John Fleming of Louisiana was on MSNBC talking about President Obama’s plan

CODY COUSINO cousino.20@osu.edu than $30,000 left for taxes and fees. Don’t let this dizzying amount of material goods distract you from the fact that this is left-over money from the

“feed the family” section. There are still $400,000 other dollars that the senator intimates isn’t much money left to reinvest in his businesses. Let’s once again look at how much money that really is. According to glassdoor.com, a website that compiles average salaries and wages, the average “sandwich artist” makes $7.50 an hour. At 40 hours a week for 52 weeks, that comes out to $15,600 a year. That means that the senator could hire six new staffers without even spending $100,000 and can still invest $300,000 in upgrades. Or the senator could take to heart his message that jobs need to be created and invest $390,000 and create 26 brand new jobs. Heck, he would still have $10,000 left over for “feeding the family.”

‘Lion King’ revives reign of 3-D movies LANTERN Columnist

Just a few weeks ago, the death of 3-D was upon us. Films such as “Fright Night,” “Conan the Barbarian” and “Shark Night 3-D” all bombed at the box office, and when given the option audiences always chose to flock to the 2-D screenings. It seemed as if the world had finally had enough of the surcharges, the glasses and dimness that comes with the 3-D technology. Then something strange happened. “The Lion King,” a 17-year-old animated film from Walt Disney Pictures, was re-released with a 3-D conversion. Not only did it make a lot of money; it topped the box office for two straight weeks, beating out such critically lauded new releases as “Drive” and “Moneyball.” Just as the world was preparing for 3-D’s funeral, it came roaring back from the dead. Why the sudden end to 3-D fatigue? Why did audiences choose to leave their homes, pay the surcharges and spend two hours seeing a movie they could have just watched on their couch? It’s because 3-D can actually be really cool when done correctly. Take the film that started this

MATT KRAUS kraus.86@osu.edu whole 3-D trend: James Cameron’s “Avatar.” There are countless problems with this film’s storytelling and characters, but it was so incredibly successful due to its brilliant use of the technology. Cameron was able to create a fully imagined world that literally popped off the screen. He understood that great 3-D is not thrown at the audience, but rather shown to the audience. The downside is that whenever a movie makes a ton of money, Hollywood

tries to replicate it as many times as possible. Of all the films released in 3-D since “Avatar,” very few of them have actually needed the extra dimension. One of the obvious examples is the recent “Fright Night,” which never took advantage of the technology. When you are just dealing with human beings in the real world, there’s nothing that would suggest 3-D is at all necessary. In this situation, it just made the film look uglier. In an ideal world, the release of a 3-D film would be a special cinematic event and not the norm. Right now, most moviegoers tend to groan at the prospect of a 3-D screening. Hollywood needs to make it so that watching a 3-D film is something to get excited about. People went to see “The Lion King” again because the conversion promised that they would see something new and exciting, albeit in a familiar package. A 3-D screening of “Fright Night” promised nothing more than a plain old suburban neighborhood. That isn’t worth the price of admission. 3-D is like cinematic junk food; it is best consumed sparingly. That way, when an audience sits down and puts

Don’t let unpredictable Mother Nature cloud your feelings toward Columbus

It’s not a secret that Ohio and Mother Nature don’t always get along. While our winters are nothing compared to those out west, and we seem to dodge the occasional freak outbursts of tornados and floods (sans the summer earthquake), we have very bipolar weather to deal with. It’s not uncommon for it to be 90 degrees one day, and 60 and storming the next. I’m not concerned with the meteorology as much as I am with how much this bipolar

ball at Columbus Commons. Top your evening off with dime-a-dog night at Huntington Park during a Clippers game, or catch at show one of our many concert venues. We not only have a great football team to rally behind at Ohio State. We also have the Columbus Blue Jackets and the Columbus Crew. There are a myriad of small businesses in the Short North where you can shop, snack and chat with the amiable proprietors. And you haven’t lived until you’ve had a taste of pistachio and honey from Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams. So the next time you want to mutter “I hate Ohio!” because our weather is such a downer, just remember that Columbus has a lot to offer that Mother Nature can’t take away.

on the glasses, it’s a special experience. When it’s shoved down our throats week after week, it just winds up turning an entire nation off. People go to the movies to see something new, and that’s twice as true for 3-D. When they fork over the extra $4, the experience had better be worth every last cent. Anything less than

the next “Avatar,” and it’s going to seem downright sluggish.

Inject yourself with information, ask questions before getting flu vaccine I have gone my entire life without receiving a single vaccination or flu shot. It isn’t because I’m afraid of needles or scared of getting sick. I simply don’t feel right about injecting foreign chemicals into my body. Every year around this time, I am confronted with flu shot ads and when I announce I don’t get vaccines, people look at me like I am crazy. I am happy to say for the last 24 years, I have fought off disease and sickness all on my own. In fact, I just went to my doctor for a physical and he gave me a clean bill of health. He was surprised, however, that I had never received any vaccinations and proceeded to tell me why they were important. I once spoke with a nurse about getting a flu shot and she said she could not believe, with all the information out there, that I would choose to not get one. I have even had someone tell me I am putting them at risk by refusing, while they blow their nose and cover their cough.

I want to be able to respond to these statements, so I have done my research. There are four brands of the killed-virus injection of the flu vaccine: Fluarix, Fluzone, FluLaval and Fluvirin. They are all made through the same process. The flu virus is grown in chicken eggs with embryos inside. The viruses are then removed from the eggs, inactivated and split open using several chemicals. In the final vaccine solution, there is a mix of mercury, egg proteins, formaldehyde and monosodium glutamate. The side effects can be as small as allergic reactions or as serious as Guillain-Barré Syndrome which causes the body’s immune system to attack the nervous system. GuillanBarré can cause temporary weakness, some paralysis that can last several weeks requiring intensive care, or could be potentially fatal. When a side effect of a vaccine could cause me to be paralyzed or die, getting the flu and having a fever for a few days is worth it and avoiding a shot is

weather affects our moods. We can’t help it. If we have to walk to class on another gray, rainy day, we might not all be in the best spirits. The start of the first full week of classes was, you guessed it, a muggy day filled with rain, as was the first full day of classes itself. To those who are new to Columbus — or even for those who are used to our crazy weather — don’t let our unpredictable weather be the basis for your feelings toward this city. As a Columbus native, I’ll always be the first person to tell you why I love this city. Just because our weather might be a bit crazy, doesn’t mean you aren’t in a great place. Even in the rain, our parks — from Jeffrey Mansion in Bexley to Goodale Park in the Short North — are beautiful and meant for you to spend hours at.

Miller showed ‘flashes’ of star potential

4A

season, the Buckeyes are in a much better position to continue winning games with Miller than with Bauserman. OSU’s passing offense has been horrendous so far this season. This cannot be blamed entirely on the two quarterbacks. The team’s best receiver, DeVier Posey, is suspended, leaving the Buckeyes with a lack of playmakers at wideout. The receivers have had many drops, which has made the quarterback’s completion percentages look worse than they actually should be. Given that the passing offense has found no rhythm, Miller’s ability to make plays running with the football is critical to OSU’s offensive success. Against Colorado, Miller actually ran for the exact amount of yards that he passed for, both for 83 yards. Miller’s ability to run helped to move the chains and will continue to do so, even as the Buckeyes go up against tougher defenses entering Big Ten conference play. Miller’s ability to get outside of the pocket and run the football for positive

LANTERN Columnist

After suffering a tough defeat to Miami two Saturdays ago, the Ohio State Buckeyes returned to their winning ways this past Saturday, defeating Colorado 37-17. In his first collegiate start at quarterback, true freshman Braxton Miller, led the Buckeyes’ offense. In the first three games of the season, senior Joe Bauserman was the starting quarterback, but he performed very poorly, completing only half of his pass attempts (30 of 60), highlighted by a dismal game against Miami in which he only completed 2 of 14 pass attempts. Braxton saw playing time against both Akron and Miami, but certainly, it is difficult for a quarterback to establish a rhythm when his offense coming off of the bench. To date, Miller has not been significantly better than Bauserman statistically. Through the Colorado game, Miller has only completed 15 of 29 pass attempts, and although he is 1-0 as a starter, Bauserman won two of his three starts. However, going forward, this

DAN HOPE hope.46@osu.edu yardage, gives the OSU offense an extra dimension, which is desperately needed, given the Buckeyes’ inefficient passing. Not only can Miller’s ability to run drive the offense down the field, it also forces the defense to plan accordingly. As long as Miller shows that he is a serious threat and can run the ball successfully, teams are likely to bring extra defenders to the

line of scrimmage in order to limit his running. In turn, that will make it easier for OSU receivers to get open, and make it easier for Miller to complete passes. In many instances, it is smart to start the experienced quarterback. However, when both quarterbacks are struggling, going with youth, in this case Miller ahead of Bauserman, is the smart choice. Miller is an 18-year-old true freshman, a special athletic talent who came to OSU this year as the #4 quarterback in the high school class of 2011, according to ESPNU. Miller has the talent to be a superstar quarterback, and it did not make sense to continue playing a struggling senior over a young player who should only get better as he gains experience. Miller has struggled thus far this season, and fans should expect him to continue to struggle over the course of the season. However, Miller has shown flashes of his potential as a playmaker, both as a passer and a runner. Opposing defenses will be aware of Miller’s talents,

and play him cautiously, making it easier for the OSU offense to gain rhythm and efficiency. Against Bauserman, opposing defenses know what they are getting, and shut down short passes and running backs, knowing that Bauserman doesn’t threaten to complete deep passes and run out of the pocket. Chances are good that the Buckeyes will lose games this season with Miller as the starting quarterback, and that fans will grow frustrated with Miller’s play at times. However, Miller should also be able to make plays and force defenses to adjust, which can enable the Buckeyes to win some games that they may not have won with Bauserman as the starter.

General Miscellaneous Prayer to St. Jude Most holy apostle, St. Jude, faithful servant and friend of Jesus, the name of the traitor who delivered your beloved Master into the hands of His enemies has caused you to be forgotten by many, but the Church honors and invokes you universally, as the patron of hopeless cases, of things almost despaired of. Pray for me, I am so helpless and alone. Make use I implore you, of that particular privilege given to you, to bring visible and speedy help where help is almost despaired of. Come to my assistance in this great need that I may receive the consolation and help of heaven in all my necessities, tribulations, and sufferings, particularly (Here make your request) and that I may praise God with you and all the elect forever. I promise, O blessed St. Jude, to be ever mindful of this great favor, to always honor you as my special and powerful patron, and to gratefully encourage devotion to you. Amen.

From suspended to steward Junior running back Jordan Hall named game captain following return from suspension Jay Clouse Lantern reporter clouse.86@osu.edu Two weeks removed from serving a two-game suspension, junior running back Jordan Hall has been named a captain for Saturday’s game against Michigan State. Hall, along junior defensive back and sophomore defensive back Corey Brown, was suspended for the games against Toledo and Akron for receiving impermissible benefits in the form of $200 from a former booster at a Cleveland-area charity event. The NCAA reinstated his eligibility before the Sept. 17 game against the Miami Hurricanes. “He’s a big leader in the locker room; he does a great job,” Fickell said. “He’s handled everything that we’ve asked him to handle with class and dignity.” Hall was all smiles when discussing his captain status with the media. “It’s definitely an honor,” Hall said. “It’ll be one of my greatest memories at Ohio State and it’s definitely exciting.” Hall has improved since his return to the field, rushing for 87 yards in an otherwise-offensive disaster against Miami. He followed up that performance with 84 yards and a touchdown against Colorado. Hall also had a 90-yard kickoff return against the Buffaloes to set up a touchdown.

@LanternSports

Fickell said Hall’s competitive nature on offense and special teams sets him apart from other players. “There’s guys with all types of abilities. When you get to college … those abilities becomes closer and closer,” Fickell said. “I think that’s the one thing I would say about Jordan. Yes, he’s very good in the things that he does, but he’s a competitor.” He added, “I’ll tell you right now, if we took him

Keeping Braxton Miller safe in line of duty Pat Brennan Sports editor brennan.164@osu.edu Ohio State football appears to have settled on a quarterback in freshman Braxton Miller. So the question the team now faces is how to protect him. During his first career start for OSU, Miller was sacked three times and dealt several other hits during OSU’s 37-17 Saturday win against Colorado. Miller, who was visibly shaken after some of the hits, didn’t look any worse for the wear as he addressed media after the game. But that could change if he continues to suffer physical punishment. The Buckeyes’ offensive line had their hands full with Colorado, which had blitzed opposing quarterbacks 64 times in its first three games, according to OSU senior center Michael Brewster. The defensive pressure figures to intensify for Brewster and Miller as they prepare for Saturday’s game against Michigan State, which leads the nation in total and pass defense. “We knew (Colorado) was going to give us a lot of different looks,” Brewster said. “We wish it (the offensive line) would have been a little cleaner, but sometimes you’ve got to adjust on the run. If we clean it up, we’ll take some more hits off (Miller).” Brewster added that Miller could help reduce the chance of getting injured, saying, “Maybe he’ll learn how to slide.” The offensive line will have to adjust to its tactics to suit Miller’s style as well. Redshirt sophomore offensive lineman Jack Mewhort said that Miller was unpredictable while practicing leading up to his first career start. “This week in practice (Miller) would be rolling out and you’d just never know,” Mewhort said. “We’ll go back and watch the film and correct some things.” Some of the beating Miller appeared to take on Saturday can be attributed to his 17 rushing attempts. Miller finished the game with 83 rushing yards and averaged 4.9 yards per carry. First-year head coach Luke Fickell said that he didn’t expect Miller to run and scramble as much as he did in the quarterback’s first start. “Probably not … you’ve got some ideas about of what’s going to happen,” Fickell said. “And probably some of those (runs), he made the decision to run a little quicker, maybe.”

Thomas Bradley/ Campus editor Chris Poche/ Design editor

Miller said that he will continue to take advantage of any openings he sees in opposing defenses and won’t shy away from running the ball. “Holes open up,” Miller said. “And if nobody’s open, I’m going to take off, get the yards because that’s what my team needs.” Offensive coordinator and offensive line coach Jim Bollman said that he believes Miller has performed well in three games he’s played this year. On the year, Miller has attempted 29 passes against 30 rushing attempts. Bollman said he’d like to see Miller throw the ball and, like Brewster, slide to avoid contact. “I’ll be just as excited when he sits back there in the pocket and throws one down there like he should too,” Bollman said. With 145 rushing yards on the year, Miller is OSU’s third-leading rusher. Fickell and Bollman might choose to favor Miller’s arm and throwing

ability for the sake of the rest of his body. “How do you totally diminish (Miller’s rushing attempts) — you don’t want to diminish it entirely,” Bollman said. Diminishing Miller’s runs might prove costly against Michigan State, which has allowed the fewest points in the Big Ten in 2011. The Spartans’ six interceptions also lead the conference, which could complicate OSU’s passing game and put Miller at further risk. Bollman said the threat of a mix of rush and pass attempts by Miller is a valuable asset to the team. For now, Buckeye Nation can rest assured knowing that Miller survived his first start, despite the hits he took. “Braxton’s a tough kid,” Mewhort said. “He’ll bounce right back, so that was good to see.” Saturday’s game against the Spartans is set for a 3:30 p.m. kickoff.

Quick Hits: Midweek news, notes from OSU football Pat Brennan Sports editor brennan.164@osu.edu Ohio State football (3-1) is just days away from opening Big Ten play against the Michigan State Spartans (3-1). First-year head coach Luke Fickell discussed freshman quarterback Braxton Miller’s Saturday performance against Colorado at a Tuesday press conference. Fickell might have also issued a veiled challenge to OSU students to ratchet up the noise level for the Buckeyes’ remaining games at Ohio Stadium.

Jordan Hall warms up before OSU’s 24-6 loss to the Miami Hurricanes on Sept. 17.

over on defense, he’d start somewhere on defense too because of the competitor that he is.” Hall said he was appreciative of Fickell’s support. “It feels good because he’s the head coach, he makes all the decisions,” Hall said. “If he feels that way about a player, then you obviously feel good about yourself.” Fickell alluded to the team’s current suspended players, senior wide receiver DeVier Posey, senior offensive tackle Mike Adams, senior running back Dan “Boom” Herron and defensive end Solomon Thomas as potential future captains as well. “We understand that we learn from our mistakes, but we’re not gonna throw guys away,” Fickell said. “That’s kind of the reason we wanted to have game captains the whole season, so that we could make sure we could bring everybody.” Posey, Adams and Herron are set to return next week against Nebraska, and Hall said they have been leaders throughout the season. “They are still full-fledged members of the team,” Hall said. “We look at them as leaders.” Ohio State will face Michigan State this Saturday at 3:30 p.m. at Ohio Stadium.

No more “or” The latest OSU depth chart, released to the media on Tuesday, now shows only freshman Braxton Miller’s name in bold print. Every previous depth chart had both Miller and redshirt senior Joe Bauserman’s names in bold and read: “Joe Bauserman or Braxton Miller.” Miller helped lead the Buckeyes to a 37-17 win against Colorado Saturday. “(Miller) did a good job,” Fickell said. “The number one thing he did was hold onto the football... threw some good balls later in the game.”

Injury update The status of senior defensive lineman Nathan Williams and sophomore wide receiver Corey “Philly” Brown remains uncertain. “Maybe we’ll have a little better idea (of their status) maybe by Wednesday,” Fickell said.

Coach Luke Fickell before OSU’s Sept. 3 game against Akron. Showing the students some love For the second time since the conclusion of the Buckeyes’ 37-17 Saturday win against Colorado, first-year coach Luke Fickell spoke of the OSU student body. “I think the one thing our guys enjoyed as much as I did is having students back on campus,” Fickell said. “Obviously, the way we played is a boost, but it’s nice to have that behind you. Really want to thank them. Hopefully they continue to do the same things and get better each and every week.”

Captaincy carousel Junior running back Jordan Hall, defensive back and special teams player Nate Ebner and defensive back and linebacker Nate Oliver will act as captains for this week’s game against Michigan State. Hall, along with defensive back Travis Howard and defensive back Corey Brown, was suspended for the first two games of the season for accepting $200 in a white envelope from a former university booster at a Cleveland area charity event. In his two games since returning from suspension, Hall has amassed 354 all-purpose yards while also scoring a touchdown against Colorado. Saturday’s game against the Spartans is set for a 3:30 p.m kickoff in Ohio Stadium. The game will be televised regionally by ABC.

Nathan Young, Joseph Milligan, Stephen Christian, Christian McAlhaney and Deon Rexroat of Anberlin are scheduled to perform at Newport Music Hall Friday at 6 p.m.

Anberlin dragging itself out of obscurity KARI FOX Lantern reporter fox.731@osu.edu Nearly a decade after the formation of alternativerock group Anberlin, the band is still eagerly making music and touring around the country promoting their most recent album “Dark Is the Way, Light Is a Place.” Anberlin is accompanying fellow alternative-rock band Switchfoot and will make their seventh stop at Newport Music Hall on Friday. Nathan Young, drummer for Anberlin, summed up his thoughts to The Lantern on the band’s 10-year existence in one word: “Crazy.” “I can’t believe it’s been 10 years, I never thought it would last this long,” Young said. “But I’m glad it did.” Young said the band feels blessed and thankful for its success and each other. “It’s weird, we all still love each other,” he said. “So that’s a good thing.” Young wants an aggressive sound on tour.

“We want to make it sound alive,” Young said. “Our goal is to take the songs and make them more energetic live.” Young said the newest album takes a different direction than previous album, “New Surrender,” and has a clearer vision. “For us personally, this album is a huge step forward,” Young said. “We put more thought into it and it portrays us both as individuals and as a band.” When Anberlin and Switchfoot combined for the tour, Young said the two groups “clicked.” “We all get along and feel close already,” Young said. “So far it’s been great.” Anberlin is scheduled for 22 stops between Sept. 22 and Oct. 22, but that doesn’t mean they aren’t planning to accomplish plenty on this 30-day tour. “The best show we can put on is what we want,” Young said. “To do something different and set ourselves apart from Switchfoot and other bands.” Megan Huck, an Ohio State graduate student studying social work, is a fan of Anberlin’s sound. “I like their style of music,” Huck said. “I tend to find that I thoroughly enjoy about five songs on each

album and play those on repeat until I get sick of them. The newest album isn’t an exception.” Huck said she will not be attending Friday’s concert because she has already attended a few of their shows. While Huck is a fan of Anberlin, she’s not as sure about other students. “I think a lot of students aren’t familiar with them, at least not many people I’ve talked to,” she said. “They don’t seem to be an incredibly mainstream one that everyone has heard of or seen music videos of. However, I do think they put on a good show and won’t disappoint the OSU students who do go.” Michael Kowalczyk, a second-year in pre-pharmacy, said he hadn’t heard of the band so he will not attend the show Young said OSU students that will be in attendance can expect a few things. “A good time, energy, and a lot of fun,” he said. “It usually gets rowdy.” Doors for the show will open at 6 p.m.

Chiddy Bang, the two-man electronica, hip-hop group is bringing a new sound to hip-hop, one city at a time. Chiddy Bang will be performing at 6 p.m. Wednesday at the Lifestyle Communities Pavilion with Lupe Fiasco. Members Chidera “Chiddy” Anamege and Noah “Xaphoon Jones” Beresin began their journey in late 2008. They were freshmen at Drexel University when they said they started on the right note. “I met Noah during my freshman year at Drexel University and we have been kicking it ever since making music,” Anamege said in an email. “That’s when the music blog ‘Pretty Much Amazing’ got wind of us and put five of our songs on their site. Crazy thing is, we never had any major intentions of becoming famous until the wheels started turning and things fell into place on their own.” After college, Chiddy Bang has gone on to make and set records, both in the studio and in the record books. Their first album, “The Swelly Express,” is a mixtape of songs that tells their journey and how they began to make music. “Opposite of Adults,” a track from the album, was an online hit. Dheeraj Duggineni, a third-year in microbiology, was one of those listeners, and after hearing the band, became interested in the hip-hop genre. “My friend actually introduced me to them when they first started,” Duggineni said. “I listened to their first album, ‘The Swelly Express,’ and I really liked it and I try to keep up with their new music when I can.” In April at MTV’s digital music awards, the O Music Awards, Anamege set new records for the longest freestyle rap and for the longest marathon rapping record in an attempt to expand their following and get noticed. Chiddy committed to the task, which entailed performing a rap nonstop for nine hours, 18 minutes and 22 seconds. It landed Anamege in the Guinness World Records.

Chiddy Bang is scheduled to perform at the Lifestyle Communities Pavilion Wednesday at 6 p.m. “Oh yeah … that was pretty dope,” Anamege said in an email. Daniel Jeffries, a third-year in theatre, has heard of Chiddy Bang and uses their story every day as motivation in his own college experiences. “I do know they met in college, which is cool because I feel a lot of aspiring artists feel like school isn’t important,” Jeffries said. “But, if Chiddy Bang can go to college and then go out and do what they love, it gives me more motivation to stay in school.” Abby Williams, a first-year in nutrition, said she is having a difficult time seeing how Chiddy Bang is any different from other electronica hip-hop groups. “I feel that Chiddy Bang falls into the group with the others trying to make it,” Williams said. “A lot

of groups seem to be making the same music and I don’t see what makes them different.” Beresin admits that they still have a long road ahead of them to make a name for themselves. But for Chiddy Bang, they’re just getting started. “We take every experience as a lesson, so we can’t really say there have been any worst moments,” Beresin said in an email. “We’re still fresh, new, and still growing. Lots more to experience, This is only the beginning!”

arts&life VIDEO GAME REVIEW

‘FIFA 12’ scores GOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLL!

A

“FIFA 12” EA Sports

PAT BRENNAN Sports editor brennan.164@osu.edu EA Sports’ 2012 edition of FIFA Soccer, the No. 1 selling sports video game franchise in the world, hit store shelves Tuesday. The anticipation for “FIFA 12” around Ohio State was evidenced by the line of shoppers who stood outside the Gamestop storefront at 1611 High St. awaiting the game’s midnight release. Once you open the case, which features Manchester United’s Wayne Rooney and North American legends Landon Donovan and Rafa Marquez on the cover, yet another refined version of the top footballing video game awaits you. All your favorite players and teams are there, as well as some new features that simulate, and celebrate, the ins-and-outs of the world’s game. The new “Player Impact Engine” imitates the physicality experienced by pro-footballers across the world. Players on your TV screen will react realistically to every collision and every touch on the ball — you’ll sense it immediately. “FIFA 12’s” Career Mode track also has a scouting network feature which allows you to dispatch up to three scouts across the world to search for young talent. With the resulting player information you receive from your scouts, you can choose to retain a player’s services, pass on them or continue scouting them. It’s an interesting, new element of FIFA Soccer for those who like to exhaust the game’s many offerings. For those who just want to claim bragging rights

against your dorm or housemates, the gameplay won’t take much getting used to. There’s also some brand new foot skills to explore and to “wow” your friends with, thanks to the Precision Dribbling feature. Lastly, for those low-scoring grudge matches against skilled opponents, you can utilize the Tactical Defending feature, which allows your backline to shift and move like a true defensive unit. The graphics, including life-like depictions of the world’s great players and stadiums, are again present in the latest installment of this ever-popular game series. “FIFA 12” has taken “the beautiful game” and made it that much more beautiful. Don’t borrow this game, buy it. You won’t be disappointed.

Musicians to make Gallery Hop hoppin’ CAROLINA PEGUERO Lantern reporter peguero.6@osu.edu The Short North Arts District and the Ohio State campus area will celebrate different art forms, open many exhibits, showcase Fashion Week Columbus and introduce new Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams flavors at October’s Gallery Hop. Gallery Hop is organized by the Short North Business Association, for the first Saturday of every month, along North High Street, 5th Avenue and Summit Street. “There is something for everyone, from students to families and young people during the Gallery Hop,” said Courtney Winnen, SNBA membership director. New this month, hoppers will find vocal art to complement the various paintings and sculptures which Gallery Hop normally showcases. Some of the street performers include the children’s orchestra group, Suzuki Music Columbus, and artist KaTanya Ingram. In addition to the celebration of different art forms, fashion will be presented at the Gallery Hop and the Fashion Week Columbus Foundation’s second annual “Peep Show.” The fashion show will have live models displaying Peep Show T-shirts styled by local designers. As many may go for the food, entertainment

and art exhibits, others may go for the new Jeni’s flavors. “Gallery Hop is always a really busy day and night,” said Aaron Beck, Jeni’s communications director. Jeni’s will prepare for Gallery Hop’s large crowd with extended store hours and new flavors such as parmesan and zucchini bread, beet cake with black walnuts and goat cheese with red cherries. “We usually have a line down the street and it’s like a big party all the time,” Beck said. “We don’t close until the last person is served.” Although Gallery Hop doesn’t officially start until 4 p.m., Studios on High Gallery will display and sell watercolor, print and calligraphy designs from inspiring artists throughout the day. Helen Neumann, a watercolor and printmaker at Studios on High Gallery, has been a part of Gallery Hop for the past seven years and said she thinks there is always something new going on to attract a variety of people. “It just fun to see everybody and meet new people,” Neumann said. Faith Goins, a third-year in anthropology, has never gone to the hop, but is interested. “I’ve never been to Gallery Hop but I heard it is a lot fun,” she said. “I would like to go if I ever find the time. I like to look at art, find the meaning of it and realize it’s beauty.” A complete list of stores and boutique hours can be found on shortnorth.org.

arts&life thelantern cdreviews Blink-182’s heart is Debut album from J. all gone in new album Cole rules the world JESSICA SHAMBAUGH Copy chief shambaugh.14@osu.edu The blind, high-school arrogance that brought Blink-182 to fame in songs like “Dammit” and “What’s My Age Again?” is missing on the band’s new album. “Neighborhoods,” the band’s first album in eight years, brings listeners the same Blink sound they’re used to, but without the youthful, high-spirited lyrics, the album falls short. The opening track, “Ghost On The Dance Floor,” proves that drummer Travis Barker’s abilities remain intact after he survived a plane crash in 2008 and suffered third-degree burns on most of his lower body. The track’s intro features Barker pounding out a beat that will have drivers playing along on their steering wheel. “Heart’s All Gone — Interlude” provides a welcome break from the fast tempo of every other song on the album, and sends listeners into a peaceful trance. Sadly, that trance is broken when the intro concludes and “Heart’s All Gone” vocalist Tom DeLonge starts shouting out his slightly goth/emo message. While DeLonge’s vocals are the same angsty-but-smooth quality they were in the old days and during his time with postBlink band Angels and Airwaves,

“Neighborhoods” Blink-182

C+

with lyrics like, “I kind of like the rush you get when you’re standing close to death” from the track “After Midnight,” it’s hard to get the same pumped-up feeling that Blink-182 used to produce. The band spent six years on hiatus. During that time Barker suffered his injuries from the plane crash and DeLonge admitted he spent time addicted to painkillers. Bassist Mark Hoppus produced albums for bands such as Motion City Soundtrack and appeared in +44, a band he formed with Barker, but didn’t do anything remarkable. The hard times experienced during their time apart shines through and makes “Neighborhoods” an anthem to the misunderstood, rebellious teens we all used to be. For Blink-182 fans, the album will provide the same fast-paced, drum-heavy songs Blink has always put out, but overall, the album is lyrically lacking.

VANESSA SPATES Senior Lantern reporter spates.3@osu.edu From the intro to the very last song, J. Cole’s debut album, “Cole World: The Sideline Story,” will strike many listeners with fear and awe. The young Jay-Z mentee comes out with guns blazing, claiming that this is a “real Cole world” and we’re all accessories in it. He is the last of the 2009 hip-hop freshmen to come out with an album and it was definitely worth the wait. “Dollar And A Dream III” and “Can’t Get Enough,” featuring Trey Songz, open the album with superb beats and Cole’s story-telling style of rap. He’s coming for Lil Wayne’s lyrical crown. The intro and interlude are painfully real and raw and offer an insight into his life. The one thing fellow rapper, Big Sean, fails at where J. Cole succeeds is the almost monotone-like way he sings the choruses of some of the songs he doesn’t have someone featured on. “Mr. Nice Watch” featuring Jay-Z shouldn’t be as catchy as it is, but the dubstep and electronica influences are irresistible to the ear. The only songs that don’t work are when Cole seems to be trying

A+

“Cole World: The Sideline Story” J. Cole

too hard at the kind of “luxury” rapping Kanye West excels at. “Cole World” is, ironically, the weakest song in the bunch. However, that is the only low point on the 19-track album, which is a ratio bound for success. The most painful and the strongest song of all is “Lost Ones.” It’s a tearjerker that doesn’t deduct any man points from the budding rapper. “God’s Gift” is another song that touches the soul. Cole told rap-up.com that his fans should expect a different sort of sound because he speaks about topics that have never been included in mainstream hip hop music before. He has succeeded. It’s a “real Cole world” indeed.

Frankmusik’s new effort hits sour note “Do It In The AM” Frankmusik

VANESSA SPATES Senior Lantern reporter antonetz.3@osu.edu England native, electro-pop artist Frankmusik, aka Vincent Frank, has released his second studio album, a follow-up to 2009’s “Complete Me.” In “Do It In The AM,” Frank has basically geared the entire album to establish himself as the next big male pop star in the U.S. In reality, it hails the true ending of male pop in America. There’s nothing appealing anymore about soft, male voices. That’s not to say this album is a complete failure; the title track and “No Champagne” featuring Natalia Kills are powerful songs in voice and production. When he’s collaborating with someone else, the songs liven up, but when it’s just him, you kind of just want it to be over. Frank’s best asset is his ability to mix and remix established tracks. His style of singing brings back memories of an ‘80s dance club. When the songs slow down a little, like on “Wrecking Ball,” the arrangement sounds better. He’s at his worst when he completely relies on Auto-Tune to carry him throughout certain songs, like “Running,” “The Fear Inside” and “No I.D.” Other tracks sound like they

C-

were ripped from an unreleased *NSYNC archive. The lyrical content is on par with a 7-yearold writing a poem in hopes of his mommy putting it on the refrigerator. Although, as he writes his own lyrics, unlike his absent contemporaries, he should get some credit. This is, without a doubt, a party album, but Frank doesn’t quite make it as catchy as LMFAO’s style of party music. It’s a lackluster attempt at trying to stand out. Overall, the production is pretty well done, but the lyrics are tasteless and the sour singing leaves a bad taste in your mouth. Music consumers are allowed to overlook this one.

The Promised Land of Milk and Honey Could it have been? Could the dream still come true?

What are the facts?

Prosperity despite unending attacks. But Israel Can that dream still come true? Of course it can! Israel has accepted virtually all of the “conditions” for reconciliation on which the Palestinians have insisted, with the sole exception of the demand for the “right of return.” That “right” would swamp Israel with hundreds of thousands of Arabs. And it would with one stroke be the end of Israel as the Jewish state. Even for the thorny question of Jerusalem a compromise could be found. But, having been misled by the thuggish Arafat for decades, Arab Palestine needs a wise leader in order to finally make peace with Israel. In view of Israel’s experience in Lebanon and Gaza and because it would be fatally vulnerable if an armed enemy occupied the Judean heights, the state of Palestine would have to be totally demilitarized and controlled (probably by US military) for compliance. It would be a difficult condition to swallow, but it would have to be the price to gain their own country. But the dream could then finally be fulfilled and peace and prosperity could be extended over all of the Promised Land. Milk and Honey could indeed flow.
