Wisconsin running back Montee Ball needs two touchdowns to make history in Madison Saturday.

Along with thousands of Ohio State graduates, a cheetah, a spotted leopard, a sloth and a “big reptile” might be in attendance at Autumn Commencement.

Jack Hanna, often called America’s favorite zookeeper, is scheduled to speak at Ohio State University’s Autumn Commencement in December.

“It’s an honor, obviously, to speak to one of the finest universities in the country,” Hanna told The Lantern.

Hanna said he plans to speak about how he lives his dream.

“There is no reason why everyone I talk to can’t live theirs,” he said.

Hanna said he will speak to graduates about his background and how he was able to get to where he is today.

“I dreamed to be a zoo keeper,” Hanna said. To be successful “you work hard in life and you love what you do.”

Hanna said he will share lessons his father taught him about “hard work and enthusiasm,” and talk about his humble upbringing in Tennessee before attending Muskingum College in New Concord, Ohio.

Paul Denton University Police Chief

The Saturday report follows two reported rapes in Park-Stradley Hall that have occurred within the past month.

Despite the recent reports, Denton said, “we don’t think it’s an ongoing problem to the campus community.”

Because it isn’t considered an ongoing problem on campus, there have been no warnings or announcements sent out through the OSU alert system.

OSU Office of Student Life spokesman Dave Isaacs said last week that reports of rape or sexual misconduct are taken very seriously at OSU. “There are procedures in place under the university Code of Student Conduct to address complaints. Ohio State fully complies with federal law under Title IX to ensure that the proper authorities are notified,” Isaacs said in an email.

Sexual assaults are the most difficult crimes we could get called on.

A female student reported a rape from the Neil Avenue building on Ohio State’s campus last weekend.

The incident is still under investigation, and Chief Paul Denton of OSU Police could not say when the assault took place or if the victim knew the suspect.

The Neil Building, located at 1578 Neil Ave. on the corner of W. 10th Ave, is a residence hall which also houses the dining location MarketPlace.

Neil Building hall directors were not available for comment.

Denton said although the rape was reported Saturday, the report was delayed and did not take place then.

“Sexual assaults are the most difficult crimes we could get called on,” Denton said.

Since each case is different, Denton said that it is hard to generalize how these types of cases are handled. He said protocol “depends on how (police officers) get the call.”

University Police receives notification of rape crimes from a variety of sources, from a hospital calling about a victim who has checked in to a call from the victims themselves. So notification could come days or months after the incident actually occurred.

Danielle Berndt, a second-year in special education who was studying in MarketPlace Wednesday, said when she lived in the dorms she made sure to lock her doors at night.

“I made sure I knew my friends and my friend’s friends,” Berndt said.

Denton also said the University Police offers Rape Aggression Defense (R.A.D.) training. These courses on self-defense are free to women who register to attend, according to the University Police website, and consists of five sessions.

Some students said it’s important to take basic safety measures to protect themselves from crime.

Jacob Bresciani, a first-year in biology who was studying in MarketPlace Wednesday, said it would be best to stay in a group when walking at night.

Denton said it’s important that students go out with a friend they trust so they can watch out for each other and get home safely.

‘Wildly successful’ Buckeye Roadtrip to offer more trips MICHAEL BURWELL Lantern reporter burwell.37@osu.edu The Buckeye Roadtrip program has been deemed “wildly successful” by Undergraduate Student Government president Taylor Stepp.

The program, launched this semester, aims to give students an easy, inexpensive way to travel to some of the state’s biggest cities.

For the first set of trips over Veterans Day weekend, three Ohio State-owned charter buses took students to Cincinnati, Cleveland and Toledo. Stepp said 133 students went on the trips to the cities, but there were many more on the wait list.

Buckeye Roadtrip is beyond the “pilot stage” and has full commitment from USG to expand the program. The next set of trips will be over Thanksgiving weekend.

“You need to have a time period where you can effectively test so many different variables, and we thought we would be cheating the growth of the program if we did not make it free first, to see what the marketability of it was,” Stepp said. “The first trip showed us that obviously it’s extremely successful.”

Changes made to the second trip include the addition of another bus to Cleveland, with buses now going to both the East and West side of the city. The Cleveland buses will hold 56 passengers each, and

osU student aiesha White has been working in Washington D.C., as part of an internship through the John Glenn school of Public affairs. During her time in the nation’s capital, White worked with the Us Department of Education in the Developing Hispanic-serving Institutions Program.

OSU student fulfills dream, interns at the White House BECCa MarrIE Lantern reporter marrie.6@osu.edu After an Ohio State student fulfilled her dream of interning in the nation’s capital, she dreamed up another goal.

The Washington Academic Internship Program, offered through The John Glenn School of Public Affairs, provides OSU students with the opportunity to study and work in Washington D.C. The interns remain fully registered students during their time out of town and earn class

credit for their internship. The students also participate in a research seminar and take a course on policy and public service.

Aiesha White, a senior in international studies, felt her resume gave her an edge over other applicants. She was an intern for three years at Procter and Gamble and is a former vice president of the John Glenn Civic Leadership Council, a student organization that encourages civic engagement among college students.

White said she was always attracted to public policy, particularly as it relates to education.

“It is the key to getting the nation and country to a better place,” White said.

White applied for the program last summer because she wanted to experience public policy firsthand on a more broader level than just a local one. While in Washington, D.C., White interned at the U.S. Department of Education in the Developing Hispanic-Serving Institutions Program, or HSI. The HSI Program is a nationwide program that provides grants to assist universities to expand and improve educational opportunities for Hispanic students.

After researching colleges and available grants, White presented her

Some students reluctant to venture to Hollywood Casino saraH NIEKaMP Lantern reporter niekamp.37@osu.edu Students looking to make a quick buck and achieve a gambling high have had an easier route since the Hollywood Casino in Columbus opened its doors last month.

The casino, open 24 hours a day, seven days a week, opened for business Oct. 8, and generated $18.3 million in revenue in October.

However, some people said the casino isn’t the only one winning big money.

Ben DeBacco, who graduated from Ohio State last spring, has been to the casino three times since it opened. DeBacco said he’s won money all three times.

“I can’t imagine going as a student because it doesn’t fit the college lifestyle,” DeBacco said. “Now that I have more money, though, I like to go. It’s very expensive. I can’t imagine risking 100 bucks in five minutes if I was in college.”

However, DeBacco said he could see how casinos would be appealing to college students, located only about 20 minutes away from OSU’s campus at 200 Georgesville Road.

“It’s exciting for any age group,” DeBacco said. “There is a ton of diversity and people there from literally every social class.”

Dave Cameruca, a fourth-year in public affairs, said his favorite part was the sports bar.

“The casino is no different than any other non-Vegas casino,” Cameruca said. “The sports bar is really cool. It was the best part.”

Hanna was named director of the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium in 1978. He began his media career in 1983 with an appearance on “Good Morning America.� In 1992, Hanna transferred from director to his current position as director emeritus at the Columbus Zoo. Hanna has hosted multiple television shows, beginning with “Jack Hanna’s Animal Adventures� in 1993. “Jack Hanna’s Into the Wild� was awarded an Emmy for Outstanding Children’s Series in 2008 and 2012. Hanna’s current and newest series, “Jack Hanna’s Wild Countdown,� began running in September 2011.

Media appearances and his work in entertainment help his efforts to spread wildlife conservation, Hanna said. “I spread conservation in a way that people understand, and in a fun way,� he said.

Hanna’s passionate work at the Columbus Zoo is “legendary,� said OSU President E. Gordon Gee in a press release. “His dedication to conservation, education and public outreach has inspired generations of people, and made a real difference in our collective appreciation of wildlife,� Gee said.

the Toledo and Cincinnati buses will each hold 47 passengers. All buses will have a Wi-Fi connection available.

Stepp said the cost for the Thanksgiving trip, which will come from the USG’s portion of the student activity fee, will be $4,495. The cost is about $500 more than the first trip due to the addition of a second bus to Cleveland.

Buses will leave for the Thanksgiving weekend trip Nov. 21 at 10 a.m. and depart for OSU Nov. 25 at 4 p.m. As of Wednesday morning, Stepp said there were 122 people signed up for the trip.

Despite the popularity of the program so far, there were concerns about when students should be brought back to OSU. “We weren’t sure if we should do it on Friday or Saturday because of the Michigan game, but I just made the call that we should probably do it on Sunday because that would just be easiest and more in line with the long-term goals of the program,� Stepp said.

Plans for expanding Buckeye Roadtrip have been discussed as well. Stepp said USG is looking at some “crazy possibilities� such as bringing students to attractions and different cities, even out of state.

Some students who went on the first trip were satisfied with how things went. Breana Higgins, a second-year in international studies, took the USG-sponsored bus trip to Toledo over Veterans Day weekend and was excited to visit her family.

About 2,800 students will receive degrees at Autumn Commencement, which begins at 2 p.m. on Dec. 16,in the Schottenstein Center.

Hanna was chosen to speak at commencement after being nominated by students, said Amy Murray, OSU’s assistant director of Media and Public Relations.

Students were asked to suggest commencement speakers through an online suggestion form, Murray said.

Brandon Mason, a fifth-year in mechanical engineering, will be graduating in December, and said he is excited to see what Hanna will say at commencement. “I’m curious to see what he’s going to say,�

Mason said. “It adds a different spin on it than something you would expect, just because he’s not a politician or something.�

Mason said he thinks Hanna will be more engaging than some of the past speakers because of his experience in media and the entertainment industry. “I’m not going to discredit him just because he works with animals all the time,� Mason said.

Hanna said he will bring animals with him to commencement to show people what he does. “I’ll bring a buckeye too,� Hanna said.

“I thought it was really cool because I don’t normally get to go home, so I thought it was a really great opportunity for me,� Higgins said. “It was a really nice bus ride too.�

Higgins plans to take the bus home again for Thanksgiving weekend.

Other students said they enjoyed the convenience of the Buckeye Roadtrip program as well. “It’s really convenient just because it’s free and easy,� said Melissa Brooks, a second-year in industrial and systems engineering. “All you have to do is go online and sign up, and you can take as much stuff as you would normally (to) go home. I think it’s nice the fact that it’s free and it’s a lot easier for my parents.�

Brooks also said she would use Buckeye Roadtrip for future trips home, even if there was a cost associated. “I probably would just because I think it would be a little bit cheaper than having my parents drive back and forth, and it’s also more convenient,�

Brooks said. “I probably wouldn’t use it as much, but just for the occasional trip home.�

Although the program is still in its early stages, Stepp said he is excited for what the future may hold. “This could be a monumental project that sets Ohio State apart from many institutions,� Stepp said. “We’re (USG) very close with a lot of our other Big Ten colleagues, and they’re marveled that we can do something like this.�

Two OSU professors honored for aiding visually impaired kenneth johnson Lantern reporter johnson.4280@osu.edu Nolan Crabb was born blind, but he considers himself lucky.

He had parents who cared for him, even though they knew nothing about raising a blind child. And he realized that there are other people who aren’t as fortunate. “When I worked in Missouri for the state, I provided training to people who lost their vision, most were older people whose eyes have gone bad. I saw in those people a tremendous amount of courage,�

Crabb said. “They weren’t willing to pound on the pillow and say, ‘Why me? why me?’ they wanted to move forward even though they had no idea how to do that or where to turn for help.�

This realization motivated Crabb to get involved with the Americans with Disabilities Act. Now an assistant technology director with the Ohio State ADA Coordinators office, Crabb was given the American Council of the Blind of Ohio’s Ambassador Award at the ACBO convention on Oct. 27

Casino from 2A The different games have also attracted OSU students.

The casino, owned by Penn National Gaming, offers a wide variety of games and machines for customers, including more than 3,000 slot machines, blackjack, poker, crabs and roulette tables.

Cameruca said his favorite game is blackjack. “Even though I know the odds are awful, it’s still my favorite,� Cameruca said. “I still feel like I have some control.�

Other students feel like gambling while in college is an easy way to lose all of their money.

Eric Spoltman, a fourth-year in financial services, said he wouldn’t go to the casino until he graduates this December. “It seems too risky,� Spoltman said. “Every time you go you end up spending at least $100.�

While gambling, students should remember to make sure they don’t spend all of their money and should check their financial standings before going. “Students need to know their limits and recognize their limits,� said Bryan Ashton, the financial wellness coordinator at the Student Wellness Center. “Be aware of what you can set aside and what you can spend.�

Only customers 21 years old and older are permitted to go to the casino.

Ashton said students need to recognize that gambling is a want and not a need. “It is entertainment and can be a good source of entertainment if you do it responsibly,� Ashton said.

With the casino so close to OSU’s campus, it’s a possibility that some students will develop gambling problems.

About 75 percent of college students have gambled

“It came as a great surprise -- I had no idea this would happen. It’s one of those things that you get but you always felt you could’ve done more or worked harder, so it’s a humbling thing to be recognized in that way,� Crabb said.

Another OSU employee was honored by the ACBO for his work with the blind and visually impaired community.

OSU’s ADA coordinator, L. Scott Lissner, was given the ACBO’s Employer of the Year Award last month, given for excellence in hiring and accommodating employees who are blind or visually impaired, according to a department press release.

Lissner said he got into his line of work with ADA to promote social justice, as well as equity issues among people with disabilities in the workforce. “Most things in life is what we do and not how we do it,� Lissner said. “I think it fits with respecting individuals for who they are and doing the right thing by them.�

Lissner said he came to OSU 13 years ago when the university created a position to uphold disability policy and compliance for students and faculty.

Crabb said he came to OSU through an advertised newsletter that

in the past year, but only six percent develop a gambling problem, said National Center for Responsible Gaming spokeswoman Amy Kugler.

If students do develop a problem, or think that they have, Kugler said they can take online questionnaires. She also suggested they go see a campus health professional.

circulated to people working in the field of blind and visually impaired technology, and it appealed to him. Crabb said he hadn’t been to OSU more than a day when he realized this was an amazing place to be. “There’s a magic about this place where good things happen, and people generally want to do the right thing for the right reason. I saw the job as a challenge, but I was fortunate to work with incredibly capable people and very enlightened people,� Crabb said.

Lissner said this year has made him proudest since the award has given him the chance to reflect on the work he’s done at OSU. He said his toughest moments have been seeing people dissatisfied when they are displeased with the accommodations he’s made for them. “They’re both outstanding gentlemen ‌ both do exceptional work and this honor is well-deserved,â€? said Jan Bosold, an administrative assistant in the ADA Coordinator’s Office.

Crabb said he hopes to continue to work with people on campus to ensure that anyone with any type of disability can have an equal shot at the very best they can achieve at OSU. But Lissner said he hopes that one day his job becomes invisible and that access for people with disabilities is more seamless in society.

Intern from 2A findings to the HSI and then added her own feedback. “It was definitely the highlight of the internship,� White said. “It’s very rare that staff members can go as in-depth as I did, and it’s nice to be able to provide them with that important information to give perspective on how to help schools.�

For White, one of the research discoveries that stood out most was the large number of schools she noticed were trying to be more innovative with the Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) approach. “Schools are trying hard to utilize new ideas and learning,� White said. “They are making really strong efforts to improve, and that was really exciting to find out.�

White said the experience she gained last summer has encouraged her to continue working in educational policy, and it’s led her to a new dream — to lead a non-profit group geared toward education reform.

White said she has benefited from the experience and believes other students, regardless of major, would too. “I would definitely tell anyone to do this (internship),� White said. “It’s a great experience, no matter what you’re studying. You’re in Washington, D.C., one of most influential cities in (the) entire world. It’s a life-changing experience.�

White is currently an intern with the National Economic Council at the White House and will return to OSU next semester.

OSU is scheduled to play in the Basketball Hall of Fame Tip-Off Classic Saturday and Sunday in Uncasville, Conn. The No. 4-ranked Buckeyes (1-0) take on Rhode Island (0-2) Saturday, and depending on the outcome of the game, will play the winner of the Seton Hall (2-0) – Washington (1-1) contest Sunday.

It’s only November, but OSU coach Thad Matta said playing two games in two days will help prepare OSU for March.

“It’s more of a Big Ten tournament, NCAA Tournament type feel,” Matta said. “I think doing this early, the two games in two days, will tell us quite a bit about our team. You play the first day, win or lose, you’ve got to go back and prepare for your next opponent.”

Coming off a Final Four appearance and a third consecutive Big Ten regular season championship , the Buckeyes are still trying to figure out what type of team they are. After this weekend, they should be further along in that process.

after an offseason of bickering about recruiting practices and, more recently, talking up their rivalry, the hour for the Ohio state and Wisconsin football programs to cast the superlatives aside and consummate their dislike arrives on saturday.

The no. 6-ranked Buckeyes (10-0, 6-0 Big Ten) will travel to Madison, Wis., for their final road game of the year against the unranked Wisconsin Badgers (7-3, 4-2 Big Ten) saturday at Camp randall stadium.

On-field developments alone are enough to stoke the flames of this rivalry as Wisconsin upset then no. 1-ranked Osu during the 2010 season, handing the Buckeyes’ their only loss during a season that would later be vacated due to nCaa

“Most of the time when you’re playing on the road, you have to find different ways to win. You have to do extra stuff,” said junior guard Lenzelle Smith, Jr. “It’s actually a little harder to win out on the road. That’s what helps us build more as a team.”

Smith Jr., who scored 18 points in OSU’s 82-60 season-opening win against Albany Nov. 11, said the Buckeyes are in the beginning stage of coming together as a cohesive unit.

They still have plenty to work on and get better at, but OSU’s main concern right now might be rebounding.

OSU seems to have its scoring down with Smith Jr., junior forward Deshaun Thomas and junior guard Aaron Craft all dropping more than 18 points in the victory against Albany.

On the other end of the floor, redshirt senior forward Evan Ravenel said OSU has the potential to be the “best defensive team in the country.”

Rebounding wise, there is still a lot to be done.

OSU had even rebounding margins against Albany and Walsh University, its NCAA Division II exhibitiongame opponent.

“We got to find a way to rebound the ball. We can’t just depend on one person to grab 10 to 15

OSU hoops to face tournament-like test

sunday

Men’s Basketball v. Washington/Seton Hall 4:30pm @ Uncasville, Conn.

The Wisconsin Badgers have a chance Saturday to hand Ohio State football its first defeat of the season, but a win isn’t the only thing senior running back Montee Ball will be chasing this weekend.

Ball has 77 career rushing and receiving touchdowns, one shy of the NCAA record for most touchdowns scored, set by Travis Prentice of Miami (Ohio) from 1996-1999 . Ball will have a chance to tie and break that record when the Badgers host the Buckeyes at 3:30 p.m. Saturday at Camp Randall Stadium in Madison, Wis. “It’s just going to be extra special for me to do it at home if it happens,” Ball said. “It’s kind of the ideal picture for anybody to break a record like that on your home turf, in front of your fans.”

Ball recognizes, however, that the Buckeyes won’t make it easy for him.

“I’m definitely expecting for Ohio State to stop me, because no one wants that record put up against them,” Ball said.

OSU senior linebacker Zach Boren said the defense will have to play a “perfect game” to stop Ball’s record-breaking pursuit.

“If we’re not, he’ll be able to make big

plays and make long runs,” Boren said.

“We respect how good of a player he is but … we’re not going to treat him or this game like it’s anything different than what we’re normally doing.”

For the Buckeyes’ defense, however, stopping Ball is not just about delaying his chance at history: it’s about getting to 11-0.

“Their strength is their run game and their power game, and that’s what they do best,” said senior defensive end John Simon. “Their quarterback’s still a very good quarterback … he’s definitely a threat to us too, but if we can stop that run, that’ll be big for us.”

That quarterback is Curt Phillips is a redshirt senior for the Badgers but started the first game of his career last Saturday against Indiana. Phillips only threw seven passes in that game, completing four for 41 yards and a touchdown . The rushing offense, however, gained 564 yards — the most by any team in the nation this season in a single game. Ball led the way with 198 yards and three touchdowns on 27 carries.

“The way I’m looking at it is we’re facing a team that’s playing their best football,” said OSU coach Urban Meyer.

“They just ran for 500-something yards against a team that gave us a hard time.”

Look out for the Wisconsin offense — it threw 62 points on the scoreboard against indiana on saturday. Badgers running backs senior Montee Ball and junior James White combined for 359 rushing yards and five touchdowns in the 62-14 win.

The Buckeyes’ offense clearly favors the run, but it’s far from a one-trick unit. Osu running backs have logged 2,561 yards and 34 touchdowns and the receivers have reeled in almost 1,900 yards and 16 touchdowns. The backs and receivers’ combined 50 touchdowns (that’s the most touchdowns by any Big Ten team this season) make the Osu offense the no. 2 total offense in the conference.

Osu sophomore quarterback Braxton Miller is responsible for 27 of the touchdowns, which is four scores short of the single-season Osu record held by former quarterback Troy smith. smith was responsible for 31 scores during his heisman-winning campaign in 2006.

violations. in 2011, Osu upended the Badgers on a late-game score to defeat the eventual Leaders division and Big Ten Championship Game winners.

More fuel for this rivalry’s fire came via a spat between Osu first-year coach urban Meyer and Wisconsin coach Bret Bielema regarding recruiting tactics, a matter the coaches settled with help from the Big Ten. as if the teams needed extra incentive, Wisconsin has clinched the Leaders division’s berth to the Big Ten title game while a win locks up an outright divisional title for the Buckeyes, who miss out on the championship game due to their postseason bowl ban. One team will have divisional bragging rights and one coach will get the last laugh in what looks to be an old-fashioned, smash-mouth, late-season Big Ten tilt.

Defense The Buckeyes’ defense has improved during the course of the season, but the Badgers’ defense has been consistent throughout.

With 27 touchdowns allowed and more than 309 yards per game, Wisconsin boasts the no. 3 total defense in the Big Ten. The Badgers have allowed 16 points or less in seven of 10 contests this season. after allowing 38 and 49 points in consecutive weeks to nebraska (Oct. 6) and indiana (Oct. 13), respectively, Osu hasn’t allowed more than 23 points in its last three games.

That’s considerable progress. Buckeyes senior fullback-turned-linebacker Zach Boren has helped stabilize the defense when he made the position switch in time for the game against the hoosiers. redshirt senior linebacker etienne sabino has missed Osu’s previous four games due to injury but will start at Camp randall on saturday. sabino’s return to the lineup comes just in time for the Buckeyes’ meeting with Ball, who is averaging more than 122 yards per game on the ground.

Special Teams as has been the case throughout Osu’s entire season, the Buckeyes better hope saturday’s game doesn’t come down to a last-second field goal as their kicker, junior drew Basil, is mostly untested. Basil has connected on 4-of-6 tries and his season-long kick was from 35 yards in the team’s Oct. 13 win at indiana. Basil has only attempted one kick longer than 35 yards— a 50-yarder in the Oct. 20 game against Purdue.

Through no fault of his own, Basil remains an unknown commodity for the Buckeyes.

By contrast, Wisconsin redshirt sophomore Kyle French has been clubbing the ball through the uprights from all over the field. French has made 10-of-13 attempts during the current campaign and boasts a season-long 46-yard kick.

Wisconsin senior running back Montee Ball (28) runs the ball against Michigan State during an Oct. 27 game at Camp Randall Stadium in Madison, Wis. Wisconsin lost in overtime, 16-13.

Montee from 6A The Buckeyes ran for a seasonhigh 353 yards against Indiana on Oct. 13, and won the game 52-49 , but the Badgersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; rushing performance led them to a 62-14 victory against the Hoosiers in their last game .

Ball said he and his fellow running backs go into every game with the mentality that they need to lead the Badgers to victory. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t establish the run game, if the run gameâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not going well, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s kind of hard to win a football game,â&#x20AC;?

Ball said.

It hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been all about the rushing offense for the 7-3 Badgers this season , however. The Badgers rank in the top 15 nationally in both total defense and scoring defense .

Meyer said Wisconsinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s defense is one of the best theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll face this season. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They have big guys up front.

Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re strong. They play hard. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re well-coached in fundamental football,â&#x20AC;? said offensive line coach Ed Warinner. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Those big guys try to chew up the gaps, I think their linebackers are really

good, and so by having big people chewing up the gaps inside, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re trying to protect their linebackers and let them make plays.â&#x20AC;?

Much of Saturdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s focus will likely be on Ball, however, as he is on the verge of potentially breaking a record.

Wisconsin coach Bret Bielema said NFL scouts have also been focusing on Ball, who has 1,226 rushing yards and 16 touchdowns this season. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had several (NFL scouts) comment to me this year they thought heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the first back to go in this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s draft,â&#x20AC;? Bielema said during his Monday press conference. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Many make the statement without a doubt.â&#x20AC;?

Meyer also believes Ball will be playing on Sundays next season. â&#x20AC;&#x153;His strengths are great vision, and heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;Ś really a fast player,â&#x20AC;? Meyer said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He pulls away from his angles, and his toughness, you can give him the ball a bunch of times, and he just keeps getting stronger. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be a very good NFL back.â&#x20AC;?

rebounds. We have to gang-rebound, because thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just the team we are,â&#x20AC;? Ravenel said.

OSU lost one of the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best rebounders from last season in former forward Jared Sullinger, who now plays for the Boston Celtics.

Sullinger averaged almost 10 rebounds per game in his two seasons with the Buckeyes.

Ravenel, along with sophomore centers Amir Williams and Trey McDonald, is trying to fill in for a former two-time All-American in Sullinger.

In order for the Buckeyes to be successful on the glass, they need to be hungrier, Ravenel said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Nobody wants to go against an overly-aggressive guy for 40 minutes in a basketball game,â&#x20AC;? he said.

While OSU is yet to face a Big Ten-caliber team after one regular season game, an exhibition game, and a canceled Carrier Classic contest against Marquette, the team should face some bigger teams this weekend.

Rhode Islandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s leading rebounders are 6-foot-7 senior Nikola Malesevic and 6-foot-8 freshman Mike Aaman. Washington, which suffered a 63-62 Tuesday loss to the same Albany team that OSU handled easily, has several lengthy forwards that could give the Buckeyes trouble. Seton Hall has five players on its roster 6-foot-9 or taller.

Matta said he is looking forward to the challenges this weekend will pose for his Buckeyes.

But more than anything, the OSU coach said he is excited to get out on the road and actually play a game after the Buckeyesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; season opener scheduled aboard an aircraft carrier was canceled due to condensation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got the travel part down. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got all the way to tip-off â&#x20AC;&#x201D; warm-ups, everything on an away court. Now weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve just got to play a game,â&#x20AC;? Matta said.

OSU and Rhode Island are set to tip off 5 p.m. Saturday night on ESPN3 at Mohegan Sun Arena. With a win, OSU would advance to Sundayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s championship game, which is scheduled for 4:30 p.m.

sports Ohio State Athlete of the Week: Volleyball outside hitter Mari Hole

OSU senior linebacker Zach Boren (44) pursues Illinois junior quarterback Nathan Scheelhaase (2) during a Nov. 3 game at Ohio Stadium. The Buckeyes won, 52-22.

Sabino set to return to lineup, start at Wisconsin grant gannon Lantern reporter gannon.78@osu.edu While his name is not present on Ohio State footballâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s official depth chart this week, a familiar face is slated to make his return against Wisconsin on Saturday.

Buckeyes coach Urban Meyer said redshirt senior linebacker Etienne Sabino will strap on his pads when OSU makes the trip to Madison, Wis. to play Wisconsin this Saturday, after missing the last four games because of a broken right fibula. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Yeah, I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t tell you what percent (health) heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s at, but heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in the starting lineup for the game,â&#x20AC;? Meyer said.

Sabino, who suffered the fracture during the Oct. 6 Nebraska game, needed surgery to fix the damage.

In six games before the injury, Sabino recorded 37 total tackles, two sacks, one interception and one forced fumble.

Even though he has been out since the first quarter of the contest against the Cornhuskers, missing the last four games, he is tied for the seventh-most total tackles on the team.

Senior defensive end John Simon said Sabinoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s play in practice hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t changed since the injury. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He looks great, you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t even tell there was ever an injury,â&#x20AC;? Simon said.

When Sabino went out, the defenseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s productivity decreased, specifically in scoring defense.

In the first six games of the season, OSUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s defense gave up an average of 20.5 points per game. Since Sabinoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s injury, however, it has allowed an average of 29 points per game, including the 49 points Indiana scored in Sabinoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first contest out on Oct. 13.

Although the first four games were against non-conference opponents perceived to be inferior to Big Ten opponents, the loss of the Miami, Fla., native forced the Buckeyes to pull senior Zach Boren, who once started at fullback, to help fill the void Sabinoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s absence left.

During an Oct. 15 press conference, Meyer called Borenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s switch from offense to defense â&#x20AC;&#x153;temporarily permanent.â&#x20AC;?

Evem with Sabinoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s return, the change is looking more permanent now that Boren was also announced a starter for the upcoming game. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The three that broke the starting lineup today, on Monday, is (sophomore Ryan) Shazier, Zach Boren and Sabino,â&#x20AC;? Meyer said Monday.

As a starting linebacker, Boren has collected 29 tackles and 1.5 tackles for loss.

Against Indiana, Boren was the leading tackler for the Buckeye defense. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been a stabling force for our defense,â&#x20AC;? Meyer said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;One of the most undervalued characteristics of a football team is leadership, and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what No. 44 (Boren) gives you.â&#x20AC;?

For the first time this season, Boren, Sabino and Shazier will play together on defense. Boren said he is excited to play with Sabino, but the three are trying to get used to playing as a unit. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I definitely think Ryanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s and my play has elevated because of what Sabino brings to the table,â&#x20AC;? Boren said.

Junior defensive tackle Johnathan Hankins said he believes Sabino brings the same leadership intangible. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one of our key guys that is at the linebacker position.

Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the leader of the defense, so itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s good to have him back,â&#x20AC;?

Hankins said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I feel like he is going to be at full force and he is going to be ready.â&#x20AC;?

With 40 kills, 42.5 points and 25 digs in nine sets during Big Ten play last week, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no surprise that womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s volleyball senior outside hitter Mari Hole was named Big Ten Player of the Week and Sports Imports/AVCA Division I National Player of the Week.

Both honors are firsts for the Oslo, Norway, native this season, but this marks the second time in her career she has won the Big Ten player of the Week award.

Hole said she was hoping to receive the award again but was surprised to receive both awards in the same week. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t see any of them coming, I know I had been doing good a few weekends in a row now,â&#x20AC;? Hole said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is nice to be recognized for that but at the same time, I know I wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have gotten either without my team.â&#x20AC;?

Hole led the Buckeyes to two Big Ten victories last week, defeating Northwestern Wednesday and Illinois Saturday.

The senior outside hitter led the team in points scored in both games , and she attributed her scoring to working on different shots. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have learned to get comfortable with using a lot of different shots and in this league, you need to have a lot of different shots to be successful,â&#x20AC;? Hole said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have worked a lot on it during the season.â&#x20AC;?

Hole had 21 kills against Illinois, making it the seventh time this season she had 20 or more kills in a match. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What has helped me get that many kills is the fact that I tend to swing very aggressively on a lot of different balls,â&#x20AC;? Hole said.

Hole is ranked fourth in the league for number of kills per set with 4.13 and fourth in the league for points with 4.60 per set.

The Buckeyes will continue Big Ten play this weekend against Purdue and Indiana, and Hole said she knows they can win if they remember what they have worked on. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We worked on a lot of stuff this week, on what we want to do better for this upcoming week, so I hope we pull through on that,â&#x20AC;? Hole said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I know we are a strong enough team to get the win, we need to keep working and improving.â&#x20AC;?

Hole and the No. 15 Buckeyes are scheduled to travel to West Lafayette, Ind., Friday to battle Purdue at 7 p.m., and to Bloomington, Ind. to play Indiana on Saturday at 7 p.m.

Friday

Sink your teeth into it all you want, but the end is nigh for the “Twilight” series.

“The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 2,” scheduled to release Friday, is the fifth and final film of the fantasy series about an awkward teenager and her shimmery vampire boyfriend.

Hollywood kept the saga alive by turning Stephenie Meyer’s four-book series into a fivemovie franchise, which seemed to satisfy diehard fans (or Twi-Hards) and the film industry alike.

According to Box Office Mojo, the blockbuster movies have grossed more than $1 billion in the U.S. and $2.5 billion internationally, spawning a global phenomenon with a loyal, rabid fanbase.

Daniel Collins, an Ohio State associate professor of Slavic linguistics who teaches a course titled “Vampires, Monstrosity, and Evil: From Slavic Myth to ‘Twilight,’” credits the success of the “Twilight” franchise to its focus on a specific target audience.

“I think it holds a real niche. The ‘Twilight’ series represents the needs of a very strong market group of young women … and deals with the transition from becoming a girl to a young woman and then to a mother. So it matches the needs of its clientele,” Collins said.

Tanya Erzen, a former professor in the Department of Comparative Studies at OSU and the author of “Fanpire: The ‘Twilight’ Saga and the Women Who Love It,” agreed that the series is appealing on multiple levels.

“The fanbase is so diverse — it has older women, college-aged women, teenagers, tweens. It’s a story that appeals to a lot of people,” Erzen said. “It started off as something very small that got passed on and kind of burgeoned into this massive phenomenon that’s global and multi-generational.”

Erzen said she expects the void left behind by “Twilight’s” end to be filled by similar vampirethemed stories.

“I think what’s left of ‘Twilight’ is paranormal young adult and romance fiction,” Erzen said,

pointing to “Fifty Shades of Grey,” a book series that originated as a “Twilight” fan fiction story.

“You have this huge demographic of people who have buying power and want these kinds of stories.”

“Twilight’s” influence has already stretched into television, paving the way for shows such as the CW’s “Vampire Diaries” and HBO’s “True Blood.” Collins said he expects these kind of productions will continue to be made to quench fans’ thirsts.

“I think people will be looking for something to replace (‘Twilight’). It goes in cycles, where the given message gets tired and then it becomes the subject of parody,” Collins said, mentioning as an example the 2010 film “Vampires Suck,” a parody of “Twilight.”

“But the failure of the parody of ‘Twilight’ suggests the message is still strong,” Collins said. “So I think we’ll see other film and book adaptations for a while that have the glamour of vampires.”

Some in the film industry certainly hope this is the case, as many have been able to cash in on the saga’s success. Gateway Film Center, for example, will screen all five “Twilight” films consecutively Thursday, starting at noon and leading up to the premiere of “Breaking Dawn – Part 2.” Tickets for the 12-hour marathon cost $25 in advance and $35 at the door.

“Historically, it’s been a continually successful franchise,” said Patrick Locy, sales and marketing manager at Gateway. “We’re expecting a pretty big crowd and we’re excited for a big premiere.”

Kathryn Krulc, a third-year in special education, said she plans on seeing “Breaking Dawn – Part 2,” but she wants to wait until after opening weekend to avoid the crowds.

“As much as I love ‘Twilight,’ I’d rather go when it’s a little less crowded so I can actually enjoy the movie instead of hearing the screaming girls — who may be a little too obsessed — behind me talking about how hot Taylor Lautner is or fighting over whether they are Team Edward or Team Jacob,” Krulc said.

Although Twi-Hards have garnered a reputation for being fiercely loyal fans, Erzen said an

‘The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 2’ is scheduled to hit theaters Nov. 16. important aspect of the “Twilight” phenomenon is the way it has created community. It has spawned a number of different ways for fans to connect with each other, including online fan fiction, “Twilight” conventions and visits to Forks, Wash., where the story is set.

With the series winding down, though, Erzen said the “Twilight” community is fading as well.

“Over time, it’s become more commercialized and more focused on the movies. Because of that, it will die down and you can already see that in the conventions, which have scaled back, and the businesses that have closed in Forks because there are fewer people coming through there,” Erzen said.

But fans shouldn’t ditch their fake vampire teeth or werewolf mask just yet. Collins said he thinks “Breaking Dawn – Part 2” might not necessarily be the last we see of Bella and the Cullen clan.

“I wouldn’t be surprised if Stephenie Meyer comes back. There’s room for prequels for stories that could be developed,” Collins said.

“This series has a great deal of vitality.”

A story about a girl who falls in love with a vampire. This sounds like a reasonable plot for a film at first thought. But take away any fearsome element a vampire film might possess, add obnoxious characters and throw in a dysfunctional relationship based on zero mutual interest, and you’re left with a dreadful take on vampire fiction whose popularity is far from justifiable.

Now brush past the thousands of “fan girls” and obsessive admirers, and you’ll see that for every film hit sensation, there’s at least a handful of people who just as equally loathe and criticize its popularity. With the release of “The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 2” Friday, I am again reminded why I am one of them.

Coming from someone who has never touched a novel from this series or made any attempt to see one of the films, some might feel as though my judgment of “Twilight” could be

close-minded or just plain irrelevant. However, having friends who make it a priority to attend each midnight showing and having done my research, I know more about the content of each book than most “Twilight” haters do.

I’ll spare you my arguments about how the books consist of dreadful writing and give women a bad reputation, and I’ll refrain from pointing out some of the disturbing qualities in the story.

Instead, I’ll focus my banter on one argument in particular, the most important one, which comes from the point of view of a horror film fanatic.

As far as scary movies go, over the years there have been a few consistent factors that we could rely on – Michael Myers seems to never die, aiming for a zombie’s head usually does the job, your dreams aren’t safe territory when Freddy Krueger takes over and vampires are blood-sucking, yet badass monsters.

It appears that in this current age, what was once a horrific, spine-chilling fictional character has transformed into a whiny, sparkling highschooler with this monstrosity of “Twilight.”

Let’s rewind to 1897, when Bram Stoker’s

vision of the creatures we know as vampires were created with his novel “Dracula.”

Now, let’s compare “Dracula,” and many of these mythical predators thereafter, to Stephenie Meyer’s 2005 version of Edward Cullen.

Vampires, such as Dracula, hunt their prey, ripping them apart limb from limb, sucking their blood. Edward marries his. Vampires are extremely sensitive to sunlight and burst into flames after exposure to it. Edward sparkles under the sun.

Vampires are known as the undead, therefore should not be able to impregnate a human. Edward somehow has a daughter with his wife, Bella.

Generally speaking, vampires were created as horrific blood-sucking monsters meant to instill fear in the viewers, however, thanks to Meyer, we have an awkward, emo vampire who gives the impression of being loving and melodramatic rather than terrifying and savage.

Aside from achieving success it does not deserve, which I could’ve looked past, the “Twilight” series has done the inexpressible act of ruining vampirism, quite possibly beyond repair.

[ a+e ] FILM REVIEW

Salles film exudes exhausting monotony ‘On The Road’ ZACH LOW Lantern reporter low.65@osu.edu Walter Salles’ adaptation of Jack Kerouac’s “On The Road” fails to connect on any meaningful level.

The film version of what had long been considered to be an unfilmable novel had a lot working against it. Kerouac’s 1957 novel became one of the defining pieces of literature of the Beat Generation, and is now considered a classic of modern prose.

However, its sprawling, erratic style never necessarily lent itself to cinematic interpretation.

Francis Ford Coppola, the film’s executive producer, tried in earnest to get an adaptation in front of cameras for decades and failed. Finally, Brazilian director Salles (“Central Station,” “The Motorcycle Diaries”) was hired, and the film went forward.

Perhaps the lesson to be learned here is that if the director of “The Godfather” can’t figure out how to make a movie work, it might be best to just let it go.

The Wexner Center for the Arts held an advance screening of the film Tuesday in its Film/Video Theater.

As far as the story goes, there isn’t much: in late-’40s New York City, Kerouac-surrogate Sal Paradise (Sam Riley) meets the charming Dean Moriarty (Garrett Hedlund) and his young wife, Marylou (Kristen Stewart), and the trio spends the next few years on road trip adventures that take them across the United States and beyond.

Well-shot, but meandering and too long at 137 minutes, “On The Road” never settles into a comfortable groove. Theoretically attempting to capture the loose, often drug-induced style of

‘On The Road’ is scheduled to hit theaters Dec. 21.

Beat writing, Salles seems totally silence-adverse, instead filling almost every second with noise: the bop of jazz, the roar of a car engine, the idle chatter between the actors. Anyone who’s ever spent more than an hour or two in a car knows that the monotony of the road can be exhausting. The film feels like that.

Along the way, the crew encounters characters of varying levels of importance. Kirsten Dunst makes an impression as Camille, Dean’s second wife with whom he has young children. Unfortunately, short of a nice scene with Sal in a smoky bar, she isn’t given much to do other than act upset with Dean.

Viggo Mortensen shows up as Old Bull Lee, a character written to resemble “Naked Lunch” writer

William S. Burroughs. With Amy Adams as his wife, Jane, the pair does good work in one of the few short sequences when the film actually allows itself to stop and catch its breath. It’s all over much too soon, and when the car pulls away from their New Orleans home, I almost wished the camera had stayed there instead of continuing with the three leads.

Hedlund sounds like “Brokeback Mountain”-era Heath Ledger doing a Jack Nicholson impression, and looks like a male model in his role of Dean.

Yes, he is charismatic, but it’s mostly because the film (and Sal’s incessant narration) tells us he is, rather than anything he specifically does.

Meanwhile, in his role of Sal, Riley looks like he could be Bill Hader’s little brother, and sounds like

the “Saturday Night Live” actor doing his impression of what a Beat writer should sound like.

And Stewart, in the role of Marylou, is once again trying to shed her franchise skin and do “serious” work (which I guess means smoking weed and taking your clothes off). Done up in period-appropriate attire, she’s certainly eye-catching on a busy screen, but often just seems lost.

This is partially the film’s fault for making her character’s object of affection so uninteresting that we never quite believe why she’d put up with what Dean puts her through. But for all her fame, Stewart’s versatility as an actress still seems to have never progressed past a quick shake of the head or dart of the eyes to convey, well, just about everything.

Chalk it up to bad luck that “On The Road” is being released within such close proximity to Paul Thomas Anderson’s “The Master.” The two films are, essentially, concerned with a complicated relationship between two men navigating a post-war America. Anderson’s film, however, is richly layered, and is invested in the psychology of that relationship. Salles (who is no Anderson, and indeed, no Coppola) barely scratches the surface of why Sal and Dean care for each other so deeply, something that if we’re going to be stuck in a car with them for two-plus hours, we might want to know.

Ultimately, much like its lead actress, “On The Road” is often pleasant to look at, but painfully dull.

The novel might not have proven unfilmable, but this version would have been better left unfilmed.

“On The Road” is scheduled to be released in U.S. theaters Dec. 21.

Movie theaters turn into place of ‘Paradise’ for Coldplay fans EVAN SPEYER Senior Lantern reporter speyer.10@osu.edu “Coldplay Live 2012” hit the big screen in 57 countries Tuesday for one night only. Gateway Film Center was among the theaters screening the film, turning Columbus Coldplay fans into cinema concertgoers.

The film is comprised of 16 songs,

2B

some of which include current hits “Charlie Brown” and “Paradise” and older fan favorites such as “Yellow” and “Fix You.” The concert portion of the film occasionally took brief intermissions, as each of the band’s four members talked about the featured “Mylo Xyloto Tour,” which singer Chris Martin called Coldplay’s best tour ever.

The film also showcased Coldplay’s desire to involve its

audience in the show, whether it be through Martin changing lyrics to a song for a reaction from the crowd, or the band playing an acoustic set in the stands among the fans. Most visibly evident were the wristbands, called “Xylobands,” which were distributed to concertgoers prior to each live show in the tour. The wristbands lit up in concert with the songs, illuminating the crowd in a rainbow fashion.

“It’s about getting everyone

involved,” said bassist Guy Berryman during his individual segment in the film. “I think the wristband idea is just a progression of that thought, that everyone can be part of the show.”

While watching the documentary of a tour that prided itself on incorporating the crowd, the Gateway Film Center’s audience of about 30 participated in different ways.

â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Coldplay Live 2012â&#x20AC;&#x2122; is scheduled to release on DVD and CD Nov. 19.

Coldplay from 2B Some quietly sang along with Martin, while others simply enjoyed the cinematography of the film. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It lacked the hype of a real live concert,â&#x20AC;? said David Sinclair, a first-year in exploration. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But it was still really exciting. I loved all of the different camera angles. It showed something that you might not see at an actual concert.â&#x20AC;?

Sinclair also pointed out that the $15 ticket to the film was far more palatable than a ticket to an actual Coldplay concert.

According to Ticketmaster, tickets for Coldplayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Dec. 30 concert in Brooklyn, N.Y., range from around $100 to more than $700.

Some said they were still willing to shell out the big bucks to see Coldplay live, such as Chris Hong, a second-year graduate student in medicine who attended Tuesdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s screening.

Hong saw the band perform in Boston in July and said he enjoyed reliving some of his favorite moments from that concert while watching the band on screen. He also said he valued the personal interviews from each band member. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was cool to get that perspective, because you wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t otherwise think about it,â&#x20AC;? Hong said.

The â&#x20AC;&#x153;Live 2012â&#x20AC;? DVD, along with an accompanying live CD of the same name, are scheduled to be released Monday.

Hundreds of old VHS tapes sit in thrift stores, waiting for a second chance at redemption and popularity. Those old exercise videos, home movies and even corporate training videos wait and hope that Nick Prueher and Joe Pickett will come discover them and bring their contents back into the spotlight.

Prueher and Pickett, who have contributed to the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Late Show with David Lettermanâ&#x20AC;? and The Onion, respectively, archive these videos and present segments from their favorites to audiences at live comedy shows, known as Found Footage Festivals.

The Found Footage Festival is scheduled to come to Columbus 9:30 p.m. Saturday at the Drexel Theatre.

The video that started the pairâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s collection was a McDonaldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s training video for janitors titled â&#x20AC;&#x153;Inside and Outside Custodial Dutiesâ&#x20AC;? that Prueher picked up while working at a local Wisconsin McDonaldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in high school in 1991. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was so insultingly dumb and ridiculous that I just had to bring it home and show it to Joe,â&#x20AC;? he said.

The video was an instant hit with the duo and close friends, so Prueher and Pickett began searching for more lost pieces of comedy gold in the form of old training videos, home movies and DVDs. The collection continued to grow to the point that in 2004 the duo had enough video clips to take the comedy show public. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We were surprised that it really caught on and people enjoyed it. The only nerve-racking thing was that it seemed like an inside joke and we didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know if the jokes would strike a chord with other people,â&#x20AC;?

Prueher said.

The two found that when on the hunt for these comedic bits, sometimes the best way to get videos is by getting a job solely to snag the training videos while on the clock. Pickett and Prueher heard rumors of an infamous training video for the video store Suncoast Videos, currently named FYE, in which the characters in the training video imitated the two main characters Garth and Wayne from the movie â&#x20AC;&#x153;Wayneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s World.â&#x20AC;?

Pickett applied for the job, got hired, worked a shift there, brought home the training video and took it back into the store the next morning. Part of the irony was that Pickett also grabbed an anti-shoplifting video to take home and share with friends, Prueher said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You have to get creative when you are hunting for these videos and sometimes that means applying

Courtesy of Found Footage Fest

Nick Prueher and Joe Pickettâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Found Footage Festival is slated to come to Drexel Theatre Nov. 17. for a job in order to get your hands on that piece of gold,â&#x20AC;? Prueher said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sometimes the best ones are worth going through some crazy links to find them.â&#x20AC;?

To keep this sense of challenge alive, Pickett and Prueher stick to searching for their clips only from physical media such as VHS and DVD, despite the creation and popularity of YouTube. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It feels like cheating to us to use other videos people found and posted online because we didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t find it,â&#x20AC;? Prueher said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And for us, part of the charm of this is doing the actual hunting throughout the thrift store.â&#x20AC;?

Prueher said the digging through hundreds of tapes before finding one gem and then becoming obsessed with that tape helps the pair appreciate its discoveries even more.

Some Ohio State students enjoy the idea of bringing VHS and other physical media back into the comedy scene as well.

Berez Jack Harris, a fourth-year in psychology, said he would go see the show. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That sounds like a really cool idea and they would have an infinite amount of resources to pull

jokes from,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It widens the material base to include clips from the pre-Internet era and I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pretty cool and hipster-ish to use old mediums for new comedy.â&#x20AC;?

Some students, however, donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seem to find the idea of this type of comedy amusing.

Jared Painter, a graduate student in education, said he thinks itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an idea that is yet to be proven. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think it lacks originality. Anyone can poke fun at something in a movie,â&#x20AC;? Painter said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one of those â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s see it once for free before we buy itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; ideas.â&#x20AC;?

The duo sells copies of live shows on DVD and often finds clips of itself on YouTube posted by other people. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be upset about them showing our clips without our permission because we are doing the exact same thing. It is an honor among thieves to keep the circle of video-sharing comedy moving,â&#x20AC;?

Prueher said.

Tickets for the show are $10 and can be purchased at the Drexel box office, located at 2254 E. Main St.

[ a +e ] Columbus’ Own

In an attempt to shine light on local music, The Lantern’s “Columbus’ Own” is a weekly series that will profile a new Columbus band every week.

Square writes songs with no shame, without stage fame hailey kim Lantern reporter kim.3712@osu.edu “Yes, there is a song about poop,” Kara Square said about her tendency to write songs about anything.

For the singer-songwriter, anything can be used in a song as long as it’s funny to her — and some of those funny things include organ donation, coconuts, cats, fake texting and even poop.

“I had a thought that there should be more songs about everything,” Square said.

From there, she challenged herself to write about anything with no shame.

“I decided to write about whatever comes in my head,” Square said. “Anything that seems fun to write about, I just wrote about it.”

Square said fun drove her to work on her latest project as well, a ukulele folk album titled “Love Songs For Everyone But Especially Uke,” which is slated to release toward the end of January.

“I love the sounds of (the) ukulele,” Square said.

“It is fun and joyful.”

Square also said while she enjoys writing songs for the ukulele, she initially wrote songs to be played with her guitar. She began playing guitar and writing songs when she was 15. She picked up the ukulele after carpal tunnel surgeries on both of her hands, which weakened her hands, made it more difficult to play guitar.

“I found out (playing the) ukulele doesn’t hurt because of its small neck and nylon strings,” Square said. “That really made me into it.”

Square said even though her upcoming album’s title sounds like it would be songs about her love for ukulele, it’s actually about her love for her partner, Katie Miller, with whom Square has been in a relationship for 12 years. But she said she didn’t intend to make it for Miller.

“I just accidently wrote a love song and it seemed fun to write more,” Square said. “Also, I noticed that I don’t have many love songs and I felt that I should write more. I’m really happy to write about it.”

She added the album isn’t about “being lesbian and their ridiculous love story.”

“Love is universal and I truly feel that way,” Square said.

Thursday November 15, 2012

As she finishes up with the album, she said she’s already thinking of ideas for her next one -- and she’s thinking of making it about cats, like her own cat, Murmur.

Square said that while she writes songs on a slew of topics, she tries to write every song with honesty.

“I just feel that it is such an important thing in art.

Sometimes it could sound raw but it’s something that I value a lot — honesty,” she said. “I would hope people could feel that in my music.”

She said she hopes the honesty allows people to connect to her songs easily, and her song “Fexting” is a good example of this.

“You know (how) people walk around with phones and pretend to type a message? I call it fexting, and I’ve done it,” Square said. “People told me that they could connect with that song, not just because it’s funny but (because) they’ve done it.”

Some Ohio State students said they also have “fexted” as well.

Megan Carl, a second-year in health professions exploration, is one of them and said she can appreciate music about relatable topics like fexting.

“I think those silly topics are smart,” Carl said.

“Being honest in your music can show the audience who you really are without trying to fake or disguise something.”

Square said the thought that she is able to connect with her listeners thrills her.

“Feeling that connection is the best,” Square said. “That’s definitely my goal.”

That is the same reason she enjoys playing folk music, which has an “intimate songwriting style,” she said.

Square plays more than folk though.

“I consider myself as a folk singer but I do any kind of music,” she said. “It’s so fun.”

And even though Square said she’ll write about anything, she won’t do anything — and that includes her being unwilling to perform in front of an audience.

This, she said, is due in part to her commitment to the songwriting process rather than her performance. The other part of it is due to stage jitters.

“I used to be nervous before I go up to stage, so I drank. I was 21 years old, so it was OK. But then, I learned that I couldn’t remember my own words if I’m drunk and then it got less fun,” Square said. “I’m not saying that I won’t go play out anymore (ever), but I don’t want to go right now.”

Kara Square’s ukulele folk album ‘Love Songs For Everyone But Especially Uke’ is scheduled to release January 2013.

In addition to her own music commitments, Square also belongs to the Buckeye Ukulele Society and musical duet Team Smile and Nod with Rich Ratvasky.

Square said when she and Ratvasky started working together it was like “a scene from a film.”

“I was working in a little café. He was a regular customer, and I made his sandwich. We started to talk about music and then we exchanged CDs,” Square said. “He secretly remixed one of my songs and then I loved it. This is how we got together and organized a band.”

Team Smile and Nod has released albums “Mourning Time” and “Look Both Ways Before You Die” in 2011 and 2008, respectively, and the group is in the midst of producing its third album.

Even though it is a small band made up of parttime musicians, Team Smile and Nod is getting a reputation online. Last year its song “Happy” was picked as one of the winning tracks of the annual Free! Music! Contest sponsored by Musikpiraten e.V. This year, “Just Drive,” which is slated to be on the band’s upcoming album, was picked.

Ratvasky said he and Square work hard and love making music.

“We meet once a week pretty religiously,” Ratvasky said. “We both get excited about creating something that didn’t exist before.”

He said Square inspires him.

“She’s trustworthy, very creative and kind,” Ratvasky said. “She never stops, she’s constantly working on something and I admire that.”
