Buckeyes abound with H-backs for Saturday DANIEL ROGERS Asst. sports editor rogers.746@osu.edu After the injury to then-senior running back Jordan Hall before the 2012 season, Ohio State was in crisis mode.

The assumed starting H-back, a hybrid wide receiver running back player in coach Urban Meyer’s offense, was out and no one knew who was going to step up and take over.

Fast forward one year, and OSU has turned that problem around in a big way.

Now, instead of waiting for an unknown player to step up, the Buckeyes have H-back players to spare.

Hall, who started at running back against Buffalo, said Meyer understands he has a multitude of choices and that could hinder a defense’s ability to get ready for the OSU squad.

“I was going to play a different position,” Hall said. “Coach Meyer knows that he has a bunch of people that can play running back or H position, so I think it’s just going to be harder for a defense to prepare for that.”

Hall, senior wide receiver Chris Fields, freshman wide receiver Jalin Marshall and freshmen running backs Dontre Wilson and Ezekiel Elliott have all been touted as potential H-backs for OSU by Meyer.

Fields started at H-back against Buffalo and Meyer said he earned the right to start by showing a significant improvement from last season. “(He’s) one of the most improved players on our team. He’s involved in special teams. But we kind of have a rule around here that you can’t play unless you’re involved in special teams and he’s really done a nice job,” Meyer said.

Fields had three catches for 53 yards and two touchdowns in the opener, compared to four catches for 55 yards and a touchdown total in 2012.

Redshirt-senior quarterback Kenny Guiton, who

threw Fields one of his touchdowns, lives with the wide receiver and has seen his growth as a player since he arrived on campus.

“There’s something up with me and him (Fields).

That’s my roommate, and that’s a guy I came in with. Since day one we’ve been clicking. Throwing touchdowns (to) him is fun man, it’s cool,” Guiton said.

Meyer said Fields’ improvement has come mostly from his work ethic in practice.

“Chris Fields wasn’t in the Top 50 for playing a game last year, and he’s really the same talent,” Meyer said. “He’s just playing his tail off and doing a lot of things for us, and he’s doing it all right, too.”

Named a starter at wide receiver during spring practice, Fields wanted to make sure he didn’t lose that position to a younger player.

“My mindset was ‘since I’m up there, I want to stay up there’ and have a mentality every day

‘Zero Waste’ at the ‘Shoe

The Ohio Stadium ‘Zero Waste’ initiative was highlighted for its sustainability efforts.

DANIEL BENDTSEN Lantern reporter bendtsen.1@osu.edu Though drinking and tailgating may often be associated with a gameday afternoon, the risks associated with consuming alcohol can affect Ohio State fans both physically and legally.

Heavy drinking in parking lots, however, is also something University Police Deputy Chief Richard Morman said can lead to bigger problems later in Ohio Stadium if left unpunished.

Last year, when the police had few financial resources for games and therefore fewer officers, Morman said he noticed an increase in problems before and after games.

University Police received an increase in complaints from the public last year “not so much about open containers, but about public urination in parking garages.

Problems like kids who were beaten up just for wearing Michigan shirts,

and of course, all that stuff is fueled by alcohol,” Morman said.

Although University Police doesn’t release the number of officers it dispatches as a matter of policy, Morman said returning resources means more officers on the ground this year. He thinks this has already had an effect in preventing major incidences.

Fourteen alcohol-related citations were also given, mostly for open container violations in parking lots, Morman said.

He said officers are given the discretion of whether to issue

citations. Often, they simply tell tailgaters to dump out beers and remind them they were violating the law, he said.

Matt Gusching, a third-year in business and psychology, said drinking should be more tolerated.

“It’s a college campus, and honestly, I don’t blame the people with open containers,” Gusching said. “I feel like gamedays and open containers come hand-in-hand. It’s one of those things that’s kind of unlucky to get caught for.”

Kaitlyn Schuette, a third-year in psychology, acknowledged the problems drinking can cause but also

agreed police should be conservative in their enforcement.

“I think in extreme cases they should be looking for it, but if not, they all know well enough around here that it’s going to go on,” Schuette said. “I think in extreme cases they should (penalize for open container violations).

If not (extreme), they should just let it slide.”

Schuette also said pre-game drinking likely contributed to the high numbers of heat exhaustion at the game. As temperatures sweltered up to 87 degrees, the Red Cross treated about 160 people at the game, the majority of which had heat-related issues, according to The Columbus Dispatch.

“I think if you’re out there drinking, you’re obviously going to have to have a better chance of getting heat exhaustion than if you weren’t,” Schuette said. “So if you’re hydrated on water, it probably wouldn’t (have) happened.”

Red Cross and OSU Emergency Management officials were unavailable for comment Thursday afternoon.

The field of Ohio Stadium is set to be covered in Ohio State legacy come halftime of Saturday’s game.

This year marks the 40th anniversary of women first joining the Ohio State Marching Band, and alumni from the band are set to join their successors on the field Saturday to perform the iconic Script Ohio formation — times four.

Shelley Graf, the first female drum major not only at OSU but in the entire Big 10, took the assistant drum major position in 1980 and the main role in 1981. She is set to lead the west-side Script Ohio with one of the original five women in the OSU Marching Band, Jan Duga, dotting the “I”, Graf said.

“When I think back, I never thought I’d ever do something like this. It’s such a thrill to be a part of the band,” Graf said. “They’re a very special group of people, that’s for sure.”

Graf has marched with the alumni since she graduated in 1983.

“I’m just proud to be a part of the band,” Graf said.

The band formed in 1878 as a drum corps with a drum major conducting the band. In the early 1920s,

G. Edwin Essington, the drum major from 1920 to 1922, led the transition from traditional military band to the one focused on showmanship known today with baton twirling and charismatic enthusiasm, according to the blog.

David Pettit, a fourth-year in piano performance

and head drum major, is ready to continue Essington’s legacy with the same people who helped build it over the years.

“I always think about the people who came before me when I’m getting ready,” Pettit said.

Pettit served as assistant drum major last year.

campus OSU students run app-creating company Justin Cline Lantern reporter cline.322@osu.edu With millions of apps at the tip of any smartphone owners’ fingertips, it’s hard not to begin thinking of ideas to fit situations where apps don’t currently exist. Two Ohio State students have made it their mission to make those ideas downloadable and profitable.

Computer science student Joshua Tucker and mechanical engineering student Keith Shields, both fourth-years, developed the website Applits for the less tech-savvy. Applits is a competition-based website where people can submit their original ideas for apps. Each month a new application is chosen by user voting to go into production.

Shields said the site has already gained traction.

“We get people from all over the world coming and telling us what app idea they like best,” Shields said. “Then we go and develop the most popular idea.”

Each winner gets his or her share once the app hits the market, Shields said.

“You don’t lift a finger. We make the product for you, market it and release it,” he said. “You sit back and make 15 percent.”

Submitting your ideas is free and requires nothing more than signing up and an idea.

Shields and Tucker wanted to draw in large crowds by making the pre-production stage free and competitive.

Shields said the apps, once created, typically sell for somewhere between free and $1.99, though “some of the apps have upgrades for additional money.”

The most recent cycle of Applits’ competition finished this past weekend with voting.

The winner of August’s challenge was an app called StudySpot, which aims to help students find the best local study areas based on amenities, ambiance and location.

Shields said the app still won’t be out for a while though.

“Each individual app can take six, seven or eight months to develop,” Shields said. He

added that developing a typical app costs about $10,000 to $30,000.

Meanwhile, the new round of submissions has started for the month of September, and voting will commence at the beginning of the fourth week.

The company is still in its infantile stages at about 14 months old, but seven apps have already made their way onto the market — two of Applits’ most popular downloads are SwitchABrew and Better Half.

SwitchABrew allows users to mask their drinking pictures by placing photos over top of their alcoholic beverages, Tucker said, while Better Half helps you plan a date.

The winning apps range in utility and function. David Brevner of Vancouver won with an idea pitch for a language tutoring app.

“It will teach you new words as you read a book or webpage online,” said Brevner in an email. “It will bring language learning to what interests you, thus making it more engaging.”

His app is currently nearing its betatesting phase, and the first version will teach its users Spanish, Brevner said.

Brevner said the Applits team is bound for success.

Man pulled from Mirror Lake remains in critical condition more than 2 weeks after incident Liz Young Campus editor young.1693@osu.edu The man who was pulled out of Mirror Lake Aug. 18 remained in critical condition at the Wexner Medical Center in the Intensive Care Unit Thursday afternoon, according to Wexner Medical Center spokeswoman Sherri Kirk.

Tushar Shriram Kabre, age 28, was rescued from the lake after a 911 call reporting a “person in distress in Mirror Lake” was received at approximately 5 p.m., and other bystanders approached the Ohio State Public Safety Mobile Command Unit that was in the area to get additional help.

The female OSU student who made the call declined to comment on the situation.

Police officers and Student Safety officers jumped into Mirror Lake to pull Kabre from the water and bystanders reported paramedics performed CPR and chest resuscitations for several minutes without any apparent reaction from him.

OSU Administration and Planning spokeswoman Lindsay Komlanc said in an email Kabre “received a masters of science in chemistry degree in Autumn 2011” and that he is not currently enrolled at the university.

OSU Ph.D. candidate Krishna Patel, an acquaintance of Kabre’s from the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, told The Lantern Aug. 19 Kabre was a student from India and he didn’t know of any relatives of Kabre’s in the area.

Attempts to locate relatives of Kabre were unsuccessful.

Ohio Stadium ‘Zero Waste’ initiative named one of the nation’s strongest Alexa Carson Lantern reporter carson.239@osu.edu For perhaps the first time, trash talking might not be a bad thing.

Ohio State’s Ohio Stadium “Zero Waste” initiative, estimated to cost $38,000 this year, was highlighted for its sustainability efforts in the Natural Resources Defense Council’s 2013 report.

“Ohio State has one of the strongest zero-waste programs at any sports venue in the country,” said the report’s author Alice Henly, a research fellow for the NRDC. The Zero Waste initiative is a recycling program that has been in place at the stadium since fall 2011. Zero waste means at least 90 percent of waste is diverted from landfills by being recycled or composted. The program reached its highest rate of diverted waste, 98.2 percent, during the 2012 game against Illinois.

According to Corey Hawkey, sustainability coordinator of the Energy Services and Sustainability Office and head of the Zero Waste program, stadium waste is diverted by working with vendors and suppliers to produce less waste, switching to recyclable or compostable products, educating fans and providing only compost and recycling bins in the stadium. But it is not only the Sustainability Office doing the work.

“This is not a (one-man) show. It’s a culmination of many different steps and many, many different people from our food vendors to the Department of Athletics,” Hawkey said. “I’m just proud of everyone and the work they’ve done.”

The funding of such a large program was also not the work of a single department. According to the NRDC report, the program was started up with funding from OSU’s President and Provost’s Council on Sustainability, Energy Services and Sustainability and the Athletic Department, and has since attracted other outside sponsors to deter costs.

“We designed the program to make sure that no costs would be put as a burden on students or the fans,” Hawkey said.

Hawkey said the program’s estimated cost of $38,000 this year does not including material management costs. The Zero Waste program brings in $37,500 annually from sponsors Rumpke and the Solid Waste Authority of Central Ohio, a contribution that started in 2012, according to the NRDC report.

Don Patko, the associate athletics director of Facilities Management at OSU, said material management costs have decreased because of the decrease in the amount of garbage. He estimated the cost, which accounts for the entire year and not just the season, was $45,000 for 2010 and will be roughly $25,000 to $35,000 this year. He also said there is no change in operating costs in the stadium.

Patko said it “feels pretty good” to have the initiative recognized nationally.

“We’re humble, yet we’re proud. What (Zero Waste) has done for us has highlighted all the good work of the people involved,” Patko said.

The NRDC report, entitled “Collegiate Game Changers: How Campus Sport is Going Green” was published last month. The report focuses on “green success stories,” Henly said, and provides

a comprehensive look at different environmental programs college athletic facilities are implementing.

“This is the first time we’ve ever collected all these stories together and helped prove that sports greening has many positive impacts for campuses around the country,” Henly said. She said these programs save resources, create a healthier environment, build a stronger brand and appeal to the community. “Sports greening” refers to both professional and collegiate sports venues making an effort to commit to greener, more environmentally friendly practices, according to the NRDC website.

Although the report said more than 216 college sports departments have installed recycling infrastructures in their facilities, OSU was one of 10 colleges highlighted in a detailed case study in the report. Henly said OSU stands out for many reasons.

“They are unique in how quickly they have had great success and their commitment to ongoing success moving forward,” Henley said.

Henly said the point of the report is not just to recognize schools like OSU for a job well done, but to teach other schools how to implement similar recycling programs. This is something the Zero Waste team has also been trying to do through symposiums with other schools about what it’s learned, Patko said.

“We are willing to share what we and how we do it — there are no secrets here,” said Patko. “We just want to keep promoting that effort.”

As for the future of the program, Hawkey said it plans to continue working to reduce costs and wastes at the stadium on gameday, but he hopes one day to expand the program to other parts of campus.

“It’s not just about recycling and composting at a football game — it’s so much bigger than that,” Hawkey said. “We’re using campus as a test step.

We’re testing the ideas of tomorrow on our campus.”

Some students suggested the Zero Waste team should also work on better promoting the initiative to students and fans. Yiyang Lin, a second-year in actuarial sciences, said although she attended games last year, she never noticed the program.

“I think there should be more advertising, because it is a good activity,” Lin said. “We should let students know we’re going green.”

However, some students, like Vincent Cheng, a second-year in business, noticed the program and appreciated the efforts to promote recycling.

“I used to come to games as a kid and there were tons and tons of extra trash everywhere, so it was really gross,” Cheng said. “It’s cleaned up the stadium, and I think it’s really helpful, too.”

OSU student honored with a national ag comm position Kathleen Martini Lantern reporter martini.35@osu.edu One Ohio State student is being recognized nationally for her love of getting involved and her passion for manure.

Ellen Gilliland, a fourth-year in agricultural communication, is the new first vice president for the Agricultural Communicators of Tomorrow, which aims to create networking opportunities for students and professionals, according to an ACT press release.

Gilliland’s love of agriculture started early – she grew up on what she calls a “very small, cute” farm raising hogs in McCutchenville, Ohio.

“I entered a hog show ring at the age of 3 and I’ve been showing hogs ever since,” Gilliland said. “It’s always just been a part of me.”

Gilliland competed in FFA, formerly known as Future Farmers of America, events throughout high school and served as a state officer her senior year.

Wanting to continue her involvement in agriculture, Gilliland went

to her first ACT meeting as a first-year. Still a competing member of FFA, she decided to use the meeting as an opportunity to have a fresh audience hear the piece she was preparing for the national competition.

The topic? Manure.

“I’m sure their first impression of me was like, ‘Who is this girl? What a freak. She’s literally talking about poop right now,’” Gilliland said with a laugh.

Conversation topic aside, Gilliland said she knew she found a home with ACT. “But my first impression of ACT was ‘Wow, these people like what I like. These people do things that I like to do. This is me. This is my fit,’” she said.

ACT was the first of 11 student organizations she is involved with.

“It’s not a priority, that whole sleep thing,” Gilliland said.

Gilliland has served as fundraising chair and president of OSU’s chapter of ACT, and she is the acting vice president of the club in addition to her place on the national executive board.

The purpose of ACT is to join students and professionals in the agricultural communications industry, said Texas A&M student Jennifer

Enocksen, second vice president of ACT national. The organization aims to help students gain internship and job opportunities.

“I met Ellen this year when she was elected and so was I,” Enocksen said. “She is definitely a really, really cool person.”

OSU’s chapter of ACT is one of the larger chapters nationally, and it has won Chapter of the Year six out of the past seven years, Gilliland said.

Stacie Seger, a third-year in agricultural communication and president of OSU ACT, said the club is delighted with Gilliland’s achievements.

“She’s the one that went above and beyond last year as president,” Seger said. “We couldn’t be happier or more proud with what she’s done.”

Although she does not yet know what she wants to do after graduation, Gilliland has the future of ACT in mind as well.

“My big word right now is succession,” Gilliland said. “I want people to be able to step up and keep what I’ve done going.”

continuations that I was going to get better, I wasn’t going to let anybody take my spot,” Fields said.

Fields said he really changed how he went about things when Meyer told him he could be a starter.

“Had a change of how I live my life and how I focus on things,” Fields said. “When he said I’d be able to be a starter this year, (I decided) I’m taking full advantage of it.”

The other player who received significant playing time as the H-back in week one was Wilson, who averaged more than seven yards a touch on offense but also fumbled midway through the second quarter.

Meyer said Monday that Wilson has some explosiveness that can help the offense, but he needs to be careful with the ball or he may lose playing time.

“Dontre was good, other than I think he laid on the ground. That was terrible and he won’t play much if that happens again,” Meyer said. “I did think he showed some of the explosiveness that he has.

We would like to get No. 15 (Elliott) a couple more carries.”

Band from 1A As a fourth-year, he said he knows many of the recent alumni.

“A lot of these alumni, especially the alumni drum majors that are coming back, are a lot of my good friends now, my teachers and my coaches,” Pettit said, “so it’s really a lot of fun for me to be able to be on the field with them and perform together.”

John Banghoff, a third-year in atmospheric science and a current E-flat cornet player, said he looks forward to watching all the alumni marching down the ramp at the stadium.

App from 2A generation of business owners,” he said. “They have the formula in place.”

Shields and Tucker share his optimism, hoping to become the names associated with app ideas.

“Right now there’s nothing really exactly like Applits. It’s pretty unique and our goal is to keep building that up in popularity,” he said.

The apps are typically developed for iPhone first, Tucker said.

The students’ interest in the app industry and their entrepreneurial mindset led to the conception of Applits, Tucker said.

The two students took a semester off classes last year to develop the idea and establish overseas connections. That was important because the website handles several hundred idea submissions per month and the development of the winning app following voting, Shields said, adding that Applits’

A lot of focus was given to Wilson during camp because of his speed, and that showed on his kickoff return for 51 yards that set up a rushing touchdown for Hall.

Running backs coach Stan Drayton said Monday Wilson only has one gear — ­ fast.

“I’ve never seen him slow down. No, everything is a hundred miles an hour,” Drayton said.

Elliott only recorded one carry for two yards, but Drayton thought he and Wilson impressed against Buffalo.

“Both of those two kids passed the test. Got to find a way to get them more involved,” Drayton said.

“But we are extremely excited about the God-given talent that they present to this offense, there’s no doubt about that.”

The Buckeyes have Fields starting at H-back against San Diego State with Wilson and Marshall behind him on the depth chart.

OSU (1-0) will take on San Diego State (0-1) at 3:30 p.m. at Ohio Stadium Saturday.

“It’s definitely a much different atmosphere,” Banghoff said. “There’s a lot more focus on the tradition of the band and realizing how many people have come before us.”

The sea of red-shirted alumni taking the ramp to the field Saturday will be a testament to the tradition of the OSU Marching Band, Graf said.

“You look forward to seeing over 700 alumni band members at reunion,” Graf said. “It’s a great day to have everyone in the stadium one more time.”

design team is based in Paraguay to keep costs down. Applits also works with nine teams of application developers in India, each of which focus on a specific project.

Managing Applits takes a lot of time, Tucker said, so the duo shares responsibility. Shields functions as the chief executive officer with his experience in graphics and community management, while Tucker, the chief financial officer, balances the books and keeps track of the budget.

Shields said now that the business’ infrastructure is stable, Applits should begin seeing profits from the apps it has developed soon, although currently its been focusing on earning its initial $70,000 investment back. Paid development projects, which allows those with app ideas to bypass the competition and simply pay for their app to be made, have supplemented revenue for the time being, and Applits can also create submissions that don’t win the contest for a fee.

Whether or not you’re a fan of toys, collecting or nostalgic items, Steve Presser guarantees you won’t regret visiting his retro Short North toy store.

“If you come to our store, 98 percent of the people are smiling,” said Presser, the founder of Big Fun Toy Store. “The (other) 2 percent either have some kind of medical issue that causes them to be in pain that day, or they just don’t get it. But the feeling is usually happiness. It’s kind of like an ice cream store without the ice cream.”

The store, which opened its doors May 31, is located at 672 N. High St. ­­— there are two locations in Cleveland as well — and specializes in a treasure trove of nostalgic toys, including but not limited to G.I. Joes, Nintendo Game Boys, Pokémon figures, Slinkys, Care Bears, My Little Ponies, lunch boxes, Silly String and whoopee cushions.

“What’s nice about our store is nostalgia never goes out of style,” Presser said. “So we’re always getting a constant flow of items to sell and a constant flow of customers looking to buy stuff from their childhood.”

The 55-year-old owner of Big Fun, which was named one of the “20 Coolest Stores in America” by Playboy magazine in 2009, decided to open his first throwback toy store after visiting Chicago toy store Goodies, now named Uncle Fun. “It literally changed my life. When I walked in there the first time, I had to sit down. The owner of the store said to me, ‘Do you feel OK?’ I said, ‘I feel too OK,’” Presser said. “As a collector, it was overwhelming and literally everything in my body fired — all the dendrites, somatic cells — it was wild. It’s hard to explain.

Remember the first time you watched ‘Wizard of Oz’ when it went from black and white to color? That feeling was overwhelming for a lot of kids — that’s how I felt.”

From then on, he was hooked, opening his first Big Fun in Cleveland in 1990.

Although this isn’t Columbus’ first Big Fun, as a campus-located Big Fun was operated for three years in the early ‘90s (where Urban Outfitters currently resides,) it was Presser’s friend and colleague Jason Williams’ idea to give a Columbus location another try. However, upon being approached by Williams, Presser had his own, distinct area in mind for the new store.

“As soon as (Jason) said Columbus, I said ‘It’s gotta be…’ and simultaneously we said, ‘the Short North,’” Presser said. “We love the Short North area. There’s a tremendous vibrancy to the neighborhood, and the community really embraces small independent businesses, which has been our mantra. We fit in very nicely because we’re different.”

And it doesn’t hurt the store is close to Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams, Presser explained — 123 steps to be exact, he counted.

Where Big Fun stands out from other Short North stores, though, is in its stock, Presser said.

“We offer toys and novelties and gifts that are different than most. And I think the community likes that we buy old toys because it’s very unusual,” he said. “Not many stores buy old toys and we specialize in buying toys from the ‘50s, ‘60s, ‘70s, ‘80s and ‘90s. So we’ve had a great response from the community.”

For Williams, co-owner of the Columbus location, being around these nostalgic items is what drew him in.

“I grew up with comics and superheroes and wrestlers, and I’m also from a family of hoarders and collectors, so I always like being surrounded by stuff,” Williams said. “And that’s the sort of motto of Big Fun, the accumulation of fun stuff.”

Through his experience, he’s observed customers who agree with him, even those who can’t physically see the “fun stuff.”

“There were few customers once that were blind being escorted by a sighted person at a Big Fun Cleveland Shop, and they described it as sticking your hand inside the change drawer, but it’s full of toys and full of all sorts of knick-knacks and fun stuff. So yeah, it’s like sticking your body inside a store that’s crazy and fun.”

This accumulation of fun stuff isn’t the store’s only mantra. Big Fun, which was named a “Fun Thing to do For $10 or Less” by ThisWeek Community News in July, prides itself on being somewhat thrifty and reasonable for college students.

“Our store’s motto is always big fun, yet affordable, and the motto really rings true because I was a college kid once and I, like everybody else, wanted to buy toys and gifts for friends,” Presser said. “And you can get by without buying really over-expensive gifts and that goes a long way for college kids.”

Some students said they’d be interested in checking Big Fun out.

“If I were at Jeni’s, I’d probably stop by and reminisce,” said Linda Sandvik, a third-year in nutrition.

James Voss, a third-year graduate student in computer science agreed, and said if he visited the store, he would “look for Slinkys and old board games.”

One’s reason for stopping by Big Fun aside, Presser holds that each guest who steps foot in his store won’t be disappointed.

“We make people happy. We put smiles on (people’s) faces,” he said. “They come to Big Fun and they come shopping and they leave smiling and that’s a neat thing to do.”

Good thing Bill Nye the Science Guy knows inertia is a property of matter — he’ll need it on the dance floor.

“Bill Nye the Science Guy,” from the ‘90s educational TV program of the same name, was announced Wednesday as one of the 12 contestants on “Dancing with the Stars,” premiering Sept. 16 on ABC. Already having danced his way into the hearts of children, especially on afternoons when it was video days in science class, Nye strives to do more than self-promoting which, if I may say, is a refreshing change.

“In order for us to carry out our mission to get the world — our world — excited about and supportive of space exploration, we need to engage people everywhere,” Nye said of joining the show on his blog Thursday. “As unusual as this may seem, I believe we can broaden awareness of the (Planetary) Society and thereby humankind’s exploration of the Cosmos one ballroom dance at a time.”

Nye visited Ohio State’s campus in

May 2012 and was eminent on “world missions” then as well.

“We are living at this extraordinary time where we can, dare I say it, change the world,” Nye said to students. “I want you to all be part of a more closely-knit human community, and I want you to be part of the future.”

The Emmy Award-winning science educator, who has also appeared on the Weather Channel, CNN and has acted in TV shows such as “Numb3rs” and “Stargate: Atlantis,” is paired with newcomer dancing pro Tyne Stecklein.

The announcement was made on “Good Morning America” by “DWTS” hosts Tom Bergeron and Brooke Burke.

Competing against Nye in “DWTS” season 17 is “Saved by the Bell” star Elizabeth Berkley Lauren, “High School Musical” star Corbin Bleu, “Pretty Little Liars” star Brant Daughterty, comedian Bill Engvall, “The Mary Tyler Moore Show” star Valerie Harper, former NFL star Keyshawn Johnson, singersongwriter Christina Milian, TV personalities Jack Osbourne and Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi, “The King of Queens” star Leah Remini and “Glee” star Amber Riley.

Nye said due to his competitiveness, he’s in it to win it.

“I’ll be fighting decades of bad posture, which may prove my undoing,” Nye wrote in a blog post.

Keep an eye out for the man who made learning science fun for us as kids.

Old Bag of Nails Pub a delectable, worthy visit Kim Dailey Lantern reporter dailey.176@osu.edu Grabbing a pint at the pub becomes a little more authentic at this joint, only five miles away from central campus.

The Old Bag of Nails Pub, located across the street from the Upper Arlington Library at 2102 Tremont Center, offers its guests its famous pub food recipes, such as soups, burgers, sandwiches and British-style fish and chips.

Of course, what pub wouldn’t be complete without a variety of beers and other alcoholic beverages? From red and white wines to imports and ciders, Old Bag offers a variety of choices, as well as draft beers on rotation, to wet the whistles of its patrons.

As I entered the restaurant, I felt as if I had entered one of the pubs I had visited on a previous vacation in England. It was dimly lit, accompanied by music from the ‘60s and ‘70s, decorated in photos of people from the 1920s and barflies were seated at one of the two bars in the restaurant. Walking to my table with my server, I kept reminding myself it was not five o’clock somewhere and that a $2.29 soda would have to suffice.

My server set out the regular menu, a drinks menu and an Oktoberfest Celebration menu featuring German-oriented foods ranging from $7 to $11.

The highest priced menu items were the 12-ounce New York strip at about $18 with some fish dinners ranging from about $13 to $15. However, the rest of the menu was reasonably priced with burgers and sandwiches ranging from roughly $8 to $9, all-you-can-eat soup and salad at about $7.50 and appetizers ranging from $6 to $10.

I ordered the $7 goetta sliders, off the Oktoberfest menu, and chips, which took around 10 minutes to be delivered. The sliders were made of ground beef, steel oats and spices, topped with red onions and served with a side of ketchup and honey mustard.

Courtesy of Kim Dailey

The Old Bag of Nails Pub is located at 2102 Tremont Center in Upper Arlington.

The sliders were interesting at first; the texture was sort of like meatloaf, but I found myself thoroughly enjoying them once I dipped them in the ketchup to give the meal extra flavor. Due to the nature of the meat, I ended up opting to use a fork, since most of it fell off the bun. The honey mustard had a bit of a kick to it, which although was tasty, I had to give it a pass.

The staff at Old Bag was very friendly and welcoming. As I sat waiting for my meal to be delivered, I watched the bar, feeling as if I was watching an episode of “Cheers.” The bartender interacted with the patrons at the bar, calling them by their first names, bantering back and forth with them and knew their drinks before they even had the chance to order them.

My server was very polite and attentive.

He made several trips to my table, asking me how my food was and refilling my drink once it became half empty.

The Old Bag of Nails Pub is a friendly joint where you can enjoy delicious pub food at a reasonable price.

Commentary

Johnson ideal for mysterious role of Anastasia Danielle Seamon Asst. arts editor seamon.17@osu.edu Turning 20 years old did not prevent me from approaching “Fifty Shades of Grey” like a 13-yearold girl.

In order to finally introduce myself to Anastasia Steele, the main character I had heard so much about, I waited until my mom went for her daily run, stole the first book of the trilogy from her nightstand, sat on the couch and thumbed through the pages to find the famous passages that detailed the dominant-submissive relationship of Ms. Steele and Christian Grey. I had about 40 minutes before my mom returned home, so I quickly skimmed the story and anxiously hid the book underneath the couch upon my mom’s entrance.

The reason I skipped the story and went straight for the sex scenes, though, started out as a genuine fascination of how literature can be written to stir the passion of women worldwide. However, it culminated into a captivation of Steele’s character as she searches for sexual satisfaction.

Pain through pleasure is not the only contradiction in E.L. James’ “Fifty Shades of Grey” series.

Steele’s character is a conflicting one, and it is epitomized in her shy yet uninhibited antics as she participates in sexual activities that go from risque to “Oh my God, no way.”

And now, Steele must translate to the silver screen and her unknown face will be played by equally unknown actress Dakota Johnson.

With more than 16 million copies of the series

sold in the U.S., audiences (or perhaps more accurately, women) had reasonable expectations for casting, and anticipation for the announcement has built since the first shade of grey was even printed. For whatever reason, a good portion of the population wanted a well-known, somewhat-established actress to be tied up and flogged. Public backlash for Steele’s casting has come in fair and expected amounts, given big names from Emilia Clarke (“Game of Thrones”) to Scarlett Johansson (2012’s “The Avengers”) were speculated possibilities for the role.

Because the character is one of pop culture fame and the envy of females worldwide, the role of Anastasia Steele is one that could either make or break an actress’ career. It is a huge responsibility to get caught in these handcuffs, and for ScarJo to pout through pleasurable pain while simultaneously wearing spandex in production of “The Avengers” sequel can sort of downplay the seriousness that many readers take this role.

The fact that the audience cannot recall many of Johnson’s past roles sort of maintains an element mystery in Anastasia’s character. Instead of seeing Khaleesi of “Game of Thrones” being forced into compromising positions, we plainly see Anastasia ­— completely unassociated.

It is no doubt Johnson’s career will achieve merit following her role, and rightly so. Whether the rest of her acting career is plagued by this “sexually submissive slave” categorization is ultimately up to Hollywood, but achieving the proper portrait of Steele’s timid confidence in the 2014 movie will be to the delight of female fans.

This is no time for Johnson to anxiously hide under her couch.

5 things to watch for: OSU v. San Diego State Eric seger and daniel rogers Sports editor and Asst. sports editor seger.25@osu.edu and rogers.746@osu.edu 1. The Return of Bradley Roby Even though OSU coach Urban Meyer would not say whether Roby will start against San Diego State, it is hard to believe the redshirt junior cornerback wouldn’t see significant playing time. The presence of the preseason All-American and Jim Thorpe Award semifinalist is much-needed for a secondary that will also see the return of another starter in redshirt-senior safety C.J. Barnett. Roby’s ability to take the opponent’s best receiver out of the game is something the Buckeyes will need once Big Ten play starts in three weeks. It will be interesting to see how much Meyer plays him.

2. Can Jordan Hall repeat his performance from last week? How does redshirt-junior Rod Smith figure into the equation?

Last week Hall got the start at running back for the Buckeyes, and instead of just filling in while OSU waited for the return of suspended running backs redshirtjunior Rod Smith and senior Carlos Hyde, he put up a career-high 159 yards and two touchdowns. Now, with the return of Smith, the pressure will be on Hall to repeat his performance from last week, or risk losing his spot.

SDSU allowed 172 yards rushing last week against Eastern Illinois, so the opportunity could be there for Hall to impress again.

3. Will OSU’s front seven be able to contain SDSU running back Adam Muema?

SDSU’s junior running back Adam Muema left the Aztecs’ 40-19 loss midway through the first half because of an ankle injury but is expected to be full-go against OSU Saturday. Muema will still be a focus of the Buckeye defense Saturday, as he finished with 1,458 yards last season to go along with 16 touchdowns.

Against Buffalo, the Buckeyes only allowed 73 rushing yards, but the Bulls did not have a back of the quality of Muema. Junior linebacker Ryan Shazier and company will have to slow Muema if the Buckeyes hope to continue their 13-game unbeaten streak.

5. Will the Buckeyes get complacent?

After SDSU, the Buckeyes are scheduled to face California, a member of a BCS conference in the Pac-12. Although the Mountain West Conference has earned some respect over the past few years, it still does not consistently compare to the Big Ten, Pac-12 or other members of the BCS. With that in mind, the Buckeyes need to focus on the task at hand and not look ahead to next week’s clash with the Golden Bears.

If OSU does not keep focused, the Aztecs could come out of the gate quickly and grab an early lead. The game could become more complicated for the Buckeyes if they have to play from behind, so they need to keep their minds on the game at hand.

OSU men’s soccer ready for Tulsa Classic Eran Hami Lantern reporter hami.2@osu.edu The men’s soccer team takes confidence with it as the team heads to the University of Tulsa Classic this weekend.

“We’ve got a little bit more (confidence) in ourselves now,” coach John Bluem said.

The Buckeyes split their first two games of the season, falling to University of North Carolina Wilmington, 2-1, in double overtime and beating Northern Illinois, 2-0. They look ahead to their next opponents in the Tulsa Classic but also take away experiences from their first matches.

“Very tough loss … a lot of adversity against us that first night,” Bluem said. “The most positive thing is the way we responded and came back with such a really good effort on Sunday.”

Captain and senior defender Sage Gardner agreed with his coach.

“Sunday helped us gain a little bit of momentum, just confidence,” Gardner said.

Gardner has slowly progressed into helping out the attack while still playing defense. This past weekend, he tallied the lone goal against UNC

Wilmington. Gardner said he enjoys the way OSU plays offense.

“I like it a lot — it’s definitely the more glamorous part of the sport,” Gardner said. “I think it

makes it more of a complete game for me. It helps me improve on areas I need help on.”

Junior goalkeeper Alex Ivanov takes a little bit of extra confidence into the Classic after being named Big Ten Defensive Player of the Week. He had seven saves against UNC Wilmington and recorded six against Northern Illinois, including two penalty kick saves. The shutout against NIU was the first of his career.

“Confident,” Ivanov said. “We’re ready to go, chemistry is building and we’ve been having some good training sessions.”

Tulsa comes in with a 1-1 record and is ranked No. 22 by the National Soccer Coaches Association of America. The Golden Hurricanes lost their first game against then-No. 6 Creighton and won their second game against Drake. Eight starters return from Tulsa’s 2012 team, which went 14-6-1 and advanced to the Sweet Sixteen of the NCAA Tournament, including preseason third-team All-American, sophomore forward Cristian Mata.

Kickoff against Tulsa is set for Friday at 8:30 p.m.

4. Did the Buckeyes learn their lesson after suffering cramps last week?

Several key members for OSU, including starting junior quarterback Braxton Miller, left last week’s win over Buffalo at different points in the game due to cramping. With temperatures likely to be in the mid-80s again Saturday, hydration both before and during the game will be important. Meyer called the cramping “a concern” following the win, so seeing if the issue was addressed will be a storyline to watch.

The No. 23 Ohio State women’s volleyball team is on a winning streak, but its skills are set to be put to the test against higher-ranked squads.

OSU is scheduled to travel to Tallahassee, Fla. this weekend for its second early season tournament in the Sheraton Seminole Invitational. The 3-0 Buckeyes, fresh off a Wednesday victory against Polish professional team Dabrowa, will take on No. 16 Western Kentucky at 11 a.m. Friday before matching up against the tournament host, No. 15 Florida State, at 7 p.m. The Buckeyes will finish off the tournament against unranked Florida Gulf Coast Saturday at noon.

Coach Geoff Carlston said all of the teams play good volleyball, but Western Kentucky and Florida State will be especially challenging.

“They’re two very good teams,” Carlston said.

“Western Kentucky just beat (then No. 16 Purdue) and Florida State had a great weekend as well.”

The Florida State Seminoles fell to No. 18 Illinois but knocked off then No. 17 Kentucky and unranked Long Beach State.

Carlston said it will be a challenge to play two tough opponents back-to-back, but that his team has been in similar situations before.

“That’s what we just did (at the NIU Invitational), we went five (against Green Bay) and then four hours later we played (Northern Illinois) and went five with them,” he said.

Carlston also said both teams play a different brand of volleyball, adding that FSU is a “big, physical team.”

Sophomore middle blocker Andrea Kacsits said she is looking forward to playing a tough schedule and recognizes it as an opportunity to make a statement.

“I think it will be really fun to play higher-ranked teams,” Kacsits said. “Then potentially to beat higherranked teams.”

Junior setter Taylor Sherwin said she is looking forward to the opportunity as well.

“It’s (going to be) a fun experience for us because we are considered a young team this year,” Sherwin said. “I feel like our team has so much to offer, and everyone will be seeing that this weekend.”

While she is excited, Kacsits said this year’s squad will have to find its own brand of volleyball.

“I expect to see really scrappy defense,” she said.

“I think this year we’re going to play a lot of really ugly volleyball, but it’s going to be really fun volleyball.”

Even with an undefeated record, senior libero Davionna DiSalvatore said there is room for improvement at the service line.

“We struggled a little bit on our serving (at the NIU Invitational),” DiSalvatore said. “I think we need to be more consistent.”

Even though there are areas that still need work, Carlston said he is happy to play teams ranked ahead of his own.

“I’d much rather play teams ranked ahead of us,” Carlston said. “This is a good test for our team to be able to play such quality teams this weekend.”

The Buckeyes, who are in the midst of a stretch of seven matches in 10 days, will return to Columbus Sept. 13 for the Sports Imports DC Koehl Classic.

OSU is set to play Indiana University, Purdue University at Indianapolis Sept. 13, and versus Southeast Missouri and Xavier Sept. 14.

sports Women’s field hockey set for 2013 Buckeye Classic Michelle ritter Lantern reporter ritter.1449@osu.edu After splitting a pair of road matches to start the season, losing 4-1 to Temple and beating New Hampshire 3-2, the Ohio State field hockey team returns home to host Missouri State.

Coach Anne Wilkinson and the players were pleased with the team’s win, but wanted to focus on areas they could improve.

Freshman midfielder and co-Big Ten Player of the Week Paige Hamilton said they have been focusing more on fitness in practice this week.

“We are focusing on using our speed and strength against our opponents,” Hamilton said. “It was a really big team win and exciting for us, so I think we are going to use our fitness and what we have been working on throughout the week against Missouri State.”

Wilkinson said the team has been working on the its ability to execute during the games.

“We just want to be able to play fast. Start to play a lot faster on both sides of the ball, counter attack, as well as get back on defense,” Wilkinson said. “So a lot of our focus has been to really kick up the tempo.”

Wilkinson said she was impressed with how well the whole team

handled the pressure of a shootout. She said the team’s communication has improved and they have been working on the different angles of teamwork.

“Last week, we were just trying to connect them more on the field with the stick and ball and passing, and I think this week, they did a lot more verbal communication,” Wilkinson said.

Junior goalkeeper and co-Big Ten Player of the Week for the Buckeyes, Sarah Lemieux, said it is important for the players to talk and listen to each other to help her as goalkeeper.

“They obviously have to listen because we do a lot of communication through the back. There has to be a lot of support,” Lemieux said. “Being able to call each other on and off the ball is huge.”

Senior midfielder and co-captain Nora Murer said the focus for Friday will come from executing what they have learned in practice and previous games. She explained areas they needed to work on included corner penalty shots and attacking the ball.

“I think for Friday, it’s just really important to begin and pull the team together, work on one string and have everyone on the same page,” Murer said.

The match, which is part of the 2013 Buckeye Classic, is set for 3 p.m. Friday at Buckeye Varsity Field.

The Buckeyes will close out the classic at noon Sunday against

Bucknell.

Urban Meyer joins Twitter, promotes Buckeyes Joel Thomas Lantern reporter thomas.2437@osu.edu

Screenshot from Twitter

Urban Meyer’s first tweet sent Aug. 27.

Ohio State football coach Urban Meyer has officially joined the Twitterverse.

On Aug. 27 he sent out his first official tweet: “My good friend Bob Stoops talked me into this Twitter stuff - lets see how it goes. 3 more days till game time!”

That first tweet from Meyer was accompanied with a picture showing a countdown leading up to the OSU’s season opener against Buffalo. Bob Stoops, the head coach at Oklahoma, was the one who convinced him to join Twitter, according to Meyer. Stoops has been on Twitter since September 2012.

In less than an hour, Meyer had more than 10,000 followers, and as of late Thursday, he had more than 38,600. The first person he followed was his Heisman hopeful quarterback and active tweeter, junior Braxton Miller.

Meyer never really voiced any opinion about Twitter before actually creating one. According to documents obtained by The Lantern the university is spending $360,500 to monitor student athletes on social media.

Meyer’s presence on Twitter, as well as numerous

players and coaches, makes it seem that the Buckeyes are a Twitter-friendly team. However, this is not the case for a few other college football programs.

Florida State, another perennial national powerhouse, banned players from using Twitter in July 2012 after several Seminole players tweeted objectionable material many people found offensive. FSU coach Jimbo Fisher made the decision to ban the social networking site from his team. He has since also banned Facebook and Instagram.

Possible negatives to the Twitter bans are a loss of potential recruits, upset players, disgruntled fans, etc. The positives are a more focused team and a lack of distractions, according to the coaches that have banned social media. Nebraska coach Bo Pelini has expressed his disgust with Twitter.

“To me, there’s nothing good that can ever come from Twitter … The only thing that is going to happen through Twitter is bad, in any regards.” Pelini said to the Lincoln Journal Star.

The majority of Meyer’s tweets are promoting the Buckeyes and OSU. His Twitter profile picture is of him and his family.
