The exhibit’s panels focus on many different aspects of the Nazi persecution of homosexuals through the use of statistics, text, illustrations, and real photographs of documents and people who were affected by the genocide.

the gallery. Alternatively, many of the photographs and information including some not included in the exhibit’s panels can be found on the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum’s website, ushmm.org. Wildeson said that although the exhibit focuses on the Holocaust’s effect on homosexuals, it is important to note that the Nazis persecuted many other groups in

Europe at that time as well, including Jews, Roma, Jehovah’s Witnesses, and individuals with mental or physical handicaps. Still, aside from the Jewish victims, homosexuals were persecuted more than any other group during the Holocaust. The Museum’s online exhibit estimates that more than one million homosexual and transgendered men in Germany were targeted, more than 100,000 men were arrested for their sexuality, about 50,000 men served prison terms as ‘convicted homosexuals’ and between 5,000 and 15,000 homosexual men were sent to concentration camps, “where many

died from starvation, disease, exhaustion, beatings, and murder,” the website states. Wildeson also said that although all LGBT individuals were certainly affected by the genocide in Europe, there is an interesting twist on the story that many people may not know: lesbians were not punished nearly as often as gay men. One of the R][\QÅKI\QWV[ \PM 6IbQ[ ][ML \W \IZOM\ UITM homosexuals was that they “carried a ‘degeneracy’ that threatened the ‘disciplined masculinity’ of Germany,” according to the Nazi Persecution of Homosexuals online exhibit. As for lesbians, Wildeson said that

the Nazis often spared them because despite their sexuality, they were still capable of reproducing. Jonathan Foss, the assistant director for Campus Programs, said that the exhibit was very moving. “The Nazi persecution of anyone, let alone this group of people, is horrendous and eye-opening,” he said. “It’s really impactful.” He encouraged everyone to visit Atwood’s gallery before Feb. 22 “to learn, to gain knowledge, [and] to have a better appreciation of how we need to be inclusive and open to everybody.”

ran the Tri-County Humane Society booth at the fair. At the age of 78, Erickson explained that “age is mental” and “where the mind goes the body follows.” As a farm-raised retired engineer, Erickson devotes four days out of his week to assist the Tri-County Humane Society with daily tasks. “Animals are for anyone so there’s a job for everyone,” Erickson said. “There’s a connection made between you and the animals as well as you and the people who come to the shelter … you can just see their eyes sparkle.” The Tri-County Humane Society allows volunteers as young as 10 to help out within the shelter with an adult supervisor and individuals 14 and up to work with the animals on an individual basis. Jobs are not limited to exercising and grooming the animals. Photographers, animal transporters, and building maintenance and grounds keeping are also available positions. The Central Minnesota Sexual Assault Center (CMSAC) was also in attendance as Joel Notch, a senior psychology major at SCSU, explained what it took to be an advocate. “We’re always looking,” Notch said. “Advocates need to be understanding and undergo 40 hours of training.”

The CMSAC is a 24-hour crisis agency made available to individuals affected by sexual violence.

Volunteers at the CMSAC are required to be 18 or older and undergo a 40-hour training program. Additionally, potential volunteers are required to complete an application, go through a multi-step interview process as well as a background check in order to ensure the

protection of the individuals using CMSAC’s resources. For more information on how to become a CMSAC advocate contact Tamara Hennes-Vix at 320.251.4357. Other volunteering opportunities were of a more religious nature as organizations such as Young Life also reached out for community involvement.

ing high school and middle school students develop and maintain a relationship with Christ, according to the organization. “Young Life is a Christian group,” Myra said. “The kids don’t need to believe to be a part of it and we’ve had kids who have come for years who don’t. Everyone is welcome.” Currently searching for new youth mentors, Myra explained that Young Life is looking for college-aged individuals who “want to form authentic relationships with the kids.” “It’s all about the relationships,” Myra said. “We want someone who can hang out with the kids both at and outside of the meetings.” Young Life meets every Monday at 7:30 p.m. at the “Clubhouse” on 7th Street N. For more information contact Young Life at 320.267.9310. The local Veterans Affairs Health Care System additionally attended the event as Dennis Erie, an SCSU alumnus of 1979, explained what it took to volunteer with the men and women who served the United States. “It takes commitment and duration,” Erie said. “We need people who visit our veterans, transport them, read to them and take them on outings.” In order to learn more about how to become involved within the VA community, contact Dennis Erie at 320.255.6365. <PM JMVMÅ\[ WN ^WT]V\MMZQVO IZM great as potential employers take great consideration in applicants who display community involvement.

generating revenue for SCSU is tuition. “There’s not much else we can do with revenue,” Burlison said. “Enrollment is revenue.” With student enrollment on the decline as of late one of the only things to offset costs is to raise tuition.

The most time was consumed by talk of the new ISELF building and the debt service payment during the construction and once the building is fully operational. Ludwig said there will be additional debt service as the building of ISELF continues. “You pay the debt service as you spend the money,” he said. Ludwig went on to say that while ISELF is being built and there are no operational costs the university will be responsible for paying around half the debt service as they will when it is completed. This year the university will pay around $300,000 in debt service since it is a partial year. By the time the construction of ISELF is complete and functional the payment for debt service will be about $750,000 per year, Ludwig said. Ludwig said the largest project which the university is still paying debt service for up until the groundbreaking on ISELF was the Miller Center.

Julius Continued from Page 1 the study of diatoms -- the most abundant type of algae on the planet. Just by looking at these diatoms, Julius can tell a lot about the body of water it came from. He is able to make statements about what the world was like 100 or even one million years ago. This type of information can be used to create climate records, pollution records, and aid in environmental reconstruction efforts by monitoring changes in the water. Commercial use of diatoms in biofuel, cosmetics and nutraceuticals have made them increasingly popular over time. Julius wasn’t always planning on studying these versatile algae. A general biology major at Butler University in Indianapolis, he knew he wanted nothing to do with the UMLQKIT ÅMTL *MKI][M WN \PQ[ PM JMOIV LMTQJMZI\MTa \ISQVO courses not typically taken by med students, which led PQU \W MVZWTT QV I VWV ^I[K]TIZ XTIV\[ KW]Z[M \W N]TÅTT PQ[ major’s botany requirement. The class sparked an interest, and Julius went on to enroll in classes focused on moss and algae the following summer. One year later he took a class led by Eugene Stoermer, professor at the University of Michigan, and noted diatomist Charles Reimer. The unique part was he was the only student enrolled in the class. “Both of these guys were so famous that the university wouldn’t drop their class,” Julius said. “So I worked with these two world experts for 10 weeks.” Julius pursued the subject even further in 1995 by enrolling at the University of Michigan as Stoermer’s master’s student, and by receiving a Ph.D. from Michigan as well. Now, after a decade of teaching at SCSU, Julius has noticed a shift in the direction of the university. “There’s a desire, we’re not there yet, but there’s a desire to start to have more of a presence in research and have students actively research,” Julius said. “We’re growing and changing from sort of a ‘sleepy world teacher’s college’ into much more of a regional force and it’s a good thing. A very good thing.” An example of the university’s efforts to incorporate more research into the current structure of teaching is the addition of the ISELF building, which, according to Julius,

Krista Wanous wins Miss St. Cloud Staff Report

A beauty queen with a purpose may be the best way to describe Krist Wanous, also known as Miss St. Cloud. Wanous is a senior at SCSU who majors in Art Therapy. Her mission is to provide abused and neglected children the opportunity to experience the healing and therapeutic powers of art. Wanous grew up in a household where her parents suffered from severe depression. Growing up, she felt a sense of loneliness and depression. She says this is the reason she feels it’s important to love and

Personal donations will be accepted through Feb. 3. With the supplies collected at these outlets, Wanous will host Free Arts Day for children from a local shelter. These days, according to the Free Arts Minnesota website, are day-long festivals of the arts. Volunteers supervise booths in a safe space and children move around during the day and work on various art projects. Some of these can include making masks, puppets and T-shirts as well as participating in the dramatic arts. If the project is a success, these children will be able to develop self-esteem and satisfaction in their own abilities by making artwork that describes who they are and why they are important individuals with unique skills and talents. Ultimately, Wanous would like to replicate the Free Arts model of mentoring in the St. Cloud area permanently. “Without a creative outlet, abused children are 60 percent more likely to be involved in criminal behavior, substance abuse, or continue to be involved in the cycle of abuse and abusive relationships. We need to stop the trauma these children are facing every day and give them a sense of hope for their futures,” she said. Wanous says she wants to help these kids feel better and believe in their dreams. “I’m looking forward to competing as the hometown girl for the title of Miss Minnesota International 2012,” she says. The pageant will take place in Ritsche Auditorium on March 10 and 11. Here, Wanous will compete against other local pageant winners from across Minnesota. The winner of the pageant will go on to compete in the Miss International Pageant in Chicago in July. Wanous plans on attending graduate school at Alfred Adler School of Practical Psychology in the fall of 2012 and continue to spread the word about Free Arts and the healing power of creativity.

Cornel West is a graduate of Princeton and has appeared on shows such as The Colbert Report, Real Time with Bill Maher.

Cornel West to speak at SCSU Staff Report Leading intellectual and Princeton University professor Cornel West will be a keynote speaker at the Power in Diversity Conference on Saturday, Jan. 28 in the Ritsche Auditorium. The Power in Diversity Conference’s theme this year is “Change-It Starts With Me!” This has been West’s campaign for many years now. His focus of change usually centers on the issues of race, class and gender inequalities. A common topic for West is Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. He uses many of King’s acts to spread the message he portrayed during the Civil Rights Movement to illustrate his points that are similar in nature. West has made a name for himself in recent years by making numerous appearances on television and radio. He is a regular on the “Bill Maher Show”, frequently speaks on “The Colbert Report”, as well as other appearances on CNN and C-Span.

He is also the co-host of the “Smiley and West” radio program that airs on Public Radio International with Travis Smiley. In his years as a professor, West has published 19 books and was the editor of 13. Of those books, two have been considered highly QVÆ]MV\QIT QV UIVa ways. One of his earlier works, “Race Matters”, centers on the issues of moral authority and racial debates in the United States. The book also focuses on nihilism in the African-American community, saying that the widespread depression can be attributed to many of the problems in the community. “Democracy Matters” is another book that that cites nihilism as one of the biggest problems in America, and that democracy does not work when escapism and apathy are so prevalent in our culture. Along with West, several other keynote speakers will be attending the conference. Actor, poet and playwright Ariel Luckey will also

be speaking on Thursday. Luckey uses many forms of demonstration, such as dance, acting and hip-hop to convey his views on social and political issues. Former NFL lineman Esera Tuaolo will also be speaking alongside West on Saturday. Playing in the NFL for nine years, he played with some players who are considered legends of the game, as well as going to Super Bowl XXXIII with the Atlanta Falcons. Tuaolo is homosexual, a fact he hid during his entire career. He led a double life during this time, which he said deeply affected his mental health and his ability to play. After coming out he received praise from family, teammates and people who were in similar situations. West will begin his lecture at 7:30 p.m. in the Ritsche Auditorium. Student access for the event will be free, otherwise there is a $5 cover charge at the door for general admission to all non-students.

If you’re going to lie, at least make it a good one. This is a basic principle I’ve always had as a kid. Didn’t do my homework? I’d say I left it at home. Didn’t want to hang out with my friends that day? I’d say I had to stay in to do chores. They were always simple, likely excuses - not once did I say anything within the range of “my father stopped me from doing my homework so we could spend time together,â€? an excuse I heard from my classmates in middle school more often than I’d like to admit. Not to say I grew up as a liar, of course, and I’m certainly not one now. In fact, that’s what was so funny about the whole thing; we didn’t lie, yet we knew how to lie better than the people who do. I can still remember standing in the living room with my little brother and my mom when I was young, laughing as she read to us outrageous stories of robberies gone wrong. Each time it came to the end, we’d have our comments, of course: ‘For a guy who robs stores for a living, you’d think he’d think \W K]\ W]\ MaM PWTM[ QV PQ[ UI[S Ă…Z[\ Âź -^MV \W \PQ[ LIa 1 Ă…VL Ua[MTN frequently stumbling upon some of the dumbest stories of criminals and liars.

Of course, anyone who knows how the tattoo process works would (hopeN]TTa SVW_ ZQOP\ I_Ia \PQ[ _I[ I ÆI\ W]\ TQM 1 [I_ I ! IZ\QKTM WV TMUWVLZWX com that put it perfectly: “Um, how do you ‘doze off ’ while getting your face inked? Getting a tattoo isn’t like going to the meditation room at the Four Seasons. It’s loud. There’s drilling. It also hurts. A lot. Lastly, it’s your face.â€? The worst part is that Vlaemink decided to take the lie and go all the way by suing the tattoo artist for the money it would take to get the stars removed. The tattoo artist, who said Vlaemink was awake, aware and pretty enthusiastic about the procedure the entire time, said he would pay for half of the cost it would take to remove the tattoo. As he put it, she might have been lying, but if a customer is unhappy it’s still his job to remedy that. Luckily for the poor artist, Vlaemink eventually stepped forth and revealed herself as a liar (and a pretty bad one at that) after being caught by a hidden camera where she said the only

misunderstanding was a few on her nose. When you think about it, it’s quite funny how that little detail seems to justify the whole thing in her head. 1V UWZM ZMKMV\ VM_[ \PM 0]NĂ…VO\WV Post just posted an article on their website about a man named Michael West who would make Miss Starry Night’s excuse seem completely legit.

After all, it’s pretty unlikely that someone would trip and get strangled by the very carpet they landed on. The ‘what’ factor in West’s story was when his alibi changed from falling to the paranormal. In fact, according \W \PM 0]NĂ…VO\WV 8W[\ ?M[\ IK\]ITTa tried telling the authorities that he didn’t punch his wife, a ghost did. Yep, a ghost. Sounds legit. So please, I implore you, take all of this information to heart. Don’t be one of them. The best conclusion I’d hope for readers to take from this, of course, would be not to lie or commit crimes in \PM Ă…Z[\ XTIKM *]\ QN aW]ÂźZM QV \PM PIJQ\ of lying anyway and can’t be convinced into a more honest (and much easier) way of living, here’s some advice for you: if you’re going to lie anyway, don’t make a complete fool of yourself in the process.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR The Unwelcome Center I returned to my alma mater this past weekend for the winter Celebrate! St. Cloud State Weekend, eager to revisit my college days. Among the things I wanted to do was visit the new Welcome Center on Fifth Avenue. This was not to be. I was brusquely ejected because a “private party� was being held. There were no signs or other indications that the Welcome Center would be anything other than welcoming. After all the bellyaching coming out of the University this past year about alumni not participating in anything, I would think the Welcome Center of all places would be an excellent place to re-introduce alums to the campus community. This apparently is not the case.

Only in Minn. It surprises me that when temperatures outside are as low as they are this morning we don’t get school off or delayed. Today is one of those days that you can throw a glass of boiling water outside and it will freeze before it hits the ground. I feel so bad for those kids in elementary and high school who have to wait outside for their buses this morning, and I feel bad for myself and others who have to wait outside Wick this afternoon and evening for the Husky Shuttle to pick us up. Delaying or closing school just seems the logical thing to do on a day like today, yet there are absolutely no school closings this morning. Only in Minnesota.

Imagine yourself in a room. *a TWWSQVO IZW]VL \PM ZWWU aW]ÂźTT Ă…VL \PM _ITT[ XW[\ML _Q\P countless photographs. In one corner there is a loveseat. The photos wrap the walls of this room like a giant collage. The faces on these photographs are familiar to you; some of them were taken with your best friends at high school, some with your parents, and some by yourself. It is almost creepy to look at these photographs as the people in there are looking right at you. Unlike those cheesy pictures that you have posted on your Facebook album recently, these people don’t seem very friendly. They are staring at you, piercing through your restless body, hitting directly into your inner soul. You tried to look away from these vicious eyes, and there you found an outlet – a dusty glass window built immediately next to the door where you just came in. You can’t see through the dusty, rusty window. But you know the only way to get a gasp of fresh air is to open up that very window. You pause for a second, yet refuse. You retreat into the loveseat, and lay your head down low‌ How many times have we looked into our past and wished that we could have done something better to change our life story, given a chance to replay the scenes? How many times have we said to ourselves, “Sorry, but this time you’ve really failedâ€?? I asked those questions to myself so very often in my little, imperfect life. As you may have already realized, failure is inevitable. Life Q[ LQNĂ…K]T\ AM\ VW WVM _ISM[ ]X MIKP LIa \ZaQVO \W NIQT I\ TQNM 1N none of us aim to fail, what are the purposes of the existence of failures? Failures affect in many aspects of our lives. First, it shakes a person’s accountability and integrity. I know, integrity is a big word. However, I believe we all want to be associated with others as a person who can be counted on, trustworthy, and more likely than not, an honest person. Yet when failure strikes, we become the questioners of our own character. We start to interrogate ourselves to see if we are actually “good enoughâ€? for others. Failures also affect courage. As Paul Hurckman, executive director at Venture Expedition, said, “Courage differs from bravery. Courage comes from within; it is something that we deal _Q\P W]Z[MT^M[ Ă…Z[\ JMNWZM LQ[XTIaQVO [WUM SQVL WN JZI^MZa QV I

circumstance.â€? When we fail, we again question our ability on performing certain tasks. And that courage that was in ourselves begins to fade when we start to believe that, “no, I am not good at doing such and such things.â€? Finally, failures hold up our growth, spiritually and communally. Some people may blame the people around them for their failures. They blame their friends, the government, teachers, XIZMV\[ IVL \PM PQOPMZ XW_MZ NWZ \PMQZ W_V ÆWX[ )[ I ZM[]T\ \PM community is affected, and the failing person is detached from their societal values and spiritual beliefs. But, low and behold, we are all good actors. Every day, we put up our big face and hopeful grins to handle life. My friend, we need to wake up from that loveseat. Even though failure is hatefully inevitable, we need to fail. You heard it right, that is the whole point of its existence. Especially in this phase of our lives, we need to fail. Failures bring opportunities to go further. *MNWZM OWQVO N]Z\PMZ _M VMML \W Ă…Z[\ WXMV ]X \PI\ L][\a _QVdow in our tiny room of shame and disappointment. We all have choices. While you used to just keep all the trash in this growing room of yours, now is the time to set yourself free. Do not suppress what is inside, be it guilt, sadness, or frustrations. We need to let the sunlight shine through. And yes it takes a lot of courage to do so. Nonetheless, being courageous doesn’t mean that you’re perfect. It is a sign of enormous strength because you are stepping up to do something, something risky that you know has no guarantee for success. š;]KKM[[ Q[ VM^MZ Ă…VIT NIQT]ZM Q[ VM^MZ NI\IT 1\ Q[ \PM KW]ZIOM to continue that counts,â€? Hurckman said. Keeping that pretty face isn’t going to help us stay alive for very long. Open up, because the very broken stuff in our lives may be the strongest drive that delivers us from failure land to liberty. So this phase of your life may be the greatest time you’ve had because once you have pushed open that window, you’ll welcome hope and endless possibilities. Friends, we have all baggage. But the element that distinguishes a successful person from those that fail are those who recognize their failures, identify the source of their failures, and take action. This article was inspired by Paul Hurckman, executive director of Venture Expedition, who spoke at the Chi Alpha weekly gathering on Tuesday.

As many of you may have noticed, the University Chronicle _MJ[Q\M _I[ LW_V NWZ PW]Z[ \PQ[ _MMS For once, it wasn’t a source of frustration for us: it was a planned blackout, part of a mass internet protest of anti-piracy legislation that would affect freedom of expression on the Internet. ?PMV _M ÅZ[\ PMIZL WN \PM ?MJ _QLM XZW\M[\ _M _ZM[\TML with whether or not to join.

We eventually decided to participate for one reason: we believe in the role of the press as a servant to its audience. The news media often mistakes neutrality as objectivity, and in this case we felt that neutrality - or inaction - is in fact biased. The (now killed) Stop Online Piracy Act and the Preventing Real Online Threats to Economic Creativity and Theft of Intellectual Property Act, or SOPA and PIPA, were bills allegedly intended to protect against copyright infringement and piracy on the internet. Their wording was so vague that, essentially, they gave the government power to shut down any website with user-submitted content (even a comment on a post) that used copyright material. In other words, YouTube could be shut down when an incriminating video of police brutality is circulating because one of the millions of users quoted a copyrighted work in one of millions of comments. This legislation was a major threat to the way we communicate in this day and age. It was supported by major corporations and media companies and, presumably, those senators paid by corporations. Objectivity, neutrality, fairness and equal time are all arguably the ethics of journalists. At the end of the day, when there’s legislation on the table that threatens the freedom of the people it’s supposed to protect, it’s our duty to spread the word and make sure citizens know the score. This legislation was designed to give the government more power. In this time of civil unrest at home and the world over, the last thing we need is for a country founded on the concept of freedom and government responsibility, a beacon of free speech and a world superpower, to be muzzled by government. How can the U.S., who condemns the internet censorship enforced by China and Iran, pass an act that would effectively enact the same policies? A free press goes both ways, we have protection under the ÅZ[\ IUMVLUMV\ \W [XMIS NZMMTa The way we see it, freedom comes with the charge that the press has to protect the free speech of the people. It may be the Senate’s job to act on behalf of their corporate campaign donors, but it’s the press’ job to protect the people it serves. As long as the Chronicle avoids being owned by a major corporation, we’ll take the stands other newspapers can’t take for that reason. SOPA and PIPA have since been killed, but similar bills are cropping up in Europe and there will surely be a reworded dopXTMOqVOMZ WV \PM ÆWWZ [WWV 3MMX aW]Z MaM[ WXMV NWZ TMOQ[TI\QWV that threatens our right to communicate. An upcoming international agreement called the Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement (ACTA) is another proposal that could potentially threaten the freedom and free speech of people internationally. Without a free press and free speech, there is no democracy.

‘Winnie the Pooh’ is nostalgic, fun for all Chelsea Christman BEAT REPORTER

On the stage of the Stephen Humphrey Theater at St. John’s University, Winnie the Pooh gets stuck in Rabbit’s house after outstaying his welcome. An array of animals, from Kanga to Owl, crowd around and try to pull him out. In tradition with the storylines of author A. A. Milne’s classic “Winnie the Pooh” books, Pooh and his friends undergo many adventures. From Tigger jumping into the tree house and being afraid to come down to Eeyore losing his tail, the performance follows many classic plots. Mary Calantoc, marketing director of Great Theatre, was involved in the entire play process. “The play is visually fantastic. The set is based off of the pop-up book, and it is all hand painted, and the costumes are made from scratch,” Calantoc

said. With a colorful set of the Hundred Acre Woods, the play’s artistic quality is apparent. Rivers, the characters’ houses, and trees splash the background. Actors wear costumes that correspond to their characters, ears, stripes, colored face paint and all. The focus of the play is on Christopher Robin’s letter. The animals rely on Owl to read the boy’s words. Owl interprets Christopher’s letter to mean he has been captured by an evil creature called a “backson”. Pooh and his friends must try to save the boy with clever antics, planting a trap for the creature, yet their plans go awry. “All people in the show are committed to their roles,” Calantoc said. In the cast of 28, the main characters are played by preteens to adults. They are sup-

ported by a collection of younger children, including an animal chorus and a tiny girl, Catelyn Zack, who played a honeypot called “Pooh’s Tummy”. The child followed Pooh around the entire play and said “Yum” during songs about honey. The play features acting talents of multiple cast members, like eighteen year old Maria Reber and her two brothers, Charlie, who plays Roo, and Luke, who plays Rabbit. Reber, who played Piglet, was excited over the debut performance. “It was very exciting. It’s an adrenaline rush to be on stage, and it looked like the audience was having fun,” she said on Jan 20, opening night. A musical with 14 songs, “Winnie the Pooh” has been a success so far. Children and adults laughed during many scenes, and the themes of sharing, caring, friendship, and adventure were

always displayed. Only an hour long, the play appeals to children and adults. One attendee, Abby Brook, attended to support her niece, Alexis Handley, who played the yellow bird narrator. “I thought the play was very cute,” she said. “I brought my two year old nephew, who was entertained the whole time, which is hard.” Brook, a devoted fan of theater, has at\MVLML W^MZ ÅN\a XTIa[ QV her life, and she said the play charms all ages. “People should come to the play because it’s perfect for all ages since it’s a timeless show, and it’s infectious fun,” Calantoc said. After the performance, the cast met their fans and signed autographs. “Winnie the Pooh” merchandise, such as books and Tigger headbands with ears, were sold as well. “The play is truly

fun, and sometimes the adults even have more fun than the kids because it is nostalgic,” Calantoc said of the performance. “Winnie the Pooh” play will be performed until Jan. 29 at the Stephen Humphrey Theater at St. John’s University. Friday showings are at 7 p.m. while Saturday and Sunday showings are at 2 p.m. Tickets for adults are $17, seniors are $14, and students/ children are only $10. The event is sponsored by Dentistry for Children, Charter, and the College of St. Ben’s and St. John’s University. So follow your tummy to the Hundred Acre Wood to join Pooh and his friends in a classic musical celebration. For tickets or more information, please visit greattheatre.org. The next Great Theatre production will be “Pirates of Penzance” starting in March.

Fabulous Armadillos to perform RS Top 25 Stephanie Trottier CONTRIBUTING WRITER

The Fabulous Armadillos, a central Minnesota band long in the spotlight of popularity, will be performing another series at the Pioneer Place starting Monday. This event will showcase the band’s talent by replicating Rolling Stone Magazine’s Top 25 Rock Songs of All Time. This event is one of four that the Fabulous Armadillos have performed each year at the local theater since 2006, according to Carrie Zwack, \PM JW` WNĂ…KM UIVIOMZ I\ Pioneer Place. “I’m always looking forward to them,â€? said Zwack of the Armadillos.

There have been a vast array of themes performed by the Fabulous Armadillos. Some of the themes include a tribute to music from 70s shows, Motown, and Woodstock, according to Dan Barth, co-owner and executive director of the Pioneer Place. Some of the artists the audience can expect to hear covered are The Beatles, Elvis Presley, and Bob Dylan, just to name a few. The rest of the list is available on rollingstone.com. Greg Armstrong, the Famous Armadillos’ keyboard player, said they chose to do this theme because “everybody knows these songs. They’re just the songs that started it all. These are the songs from the ‘60s and

early ‘70s and even some from the ‘90s.â€? The band is running on its sixth season at the Pioneer Place and, according to Armstrong, the Fabulous Armadillos handpick musical guests to perform along with them for each theme. Pioneer Place’s website, XXĂ…^M KWU [Ia[ \PI\ I\ \PM opening show for the band’s fourth season, they were able to bring in Alex Ligertwood, who performs with Santana, as a special guest for the Woodstock show. For the upcoming show, Armstrong would not release the name of the special guest or guests performing at the Rolling Stone’s Top 25 show because they “keep them a surprise,â€? but he did say that they are

“coming all the way from London.â€? The band consists WN Ă…^M KWZM U][QKQIV[" keyboard player Greg Armstrong, guitar player Paul Diethelm, bass player Mike Zeleny, drummer Jay O’Donnell, and vocalist Billy Scherer. In reality, there are up to 13 contributing artists in the band, according to Armstrong. “The guitar player, Paul, went on tour with Jonny Lang, has toured the entire world and has even opened for the Rolling Stones. They’re a very accomplished band,â€? said Barth. Barth also went on to say that the keyboard player, Greg Armstrong, has toured with Bobby Vee and G.B. Leighton.

When asked to pick a favorite from the upcoming set, Armstrong said, “Well, I’m a big Beatles fan, but I can’t really say for sure what my favorite is until _M XTIa Q\ NWZ NW]Z WZ Ă…^M nights.â€? The audience can be sure that this Monday’s performance will be most likely sold-out, a claim assured by Barth. Future themes include “The ‘Dillos Go to Hollywoodâ€? in April, which is a show revolving around some of the most popular Ă…TU IVL \MTM^Q[QWV [PW_ songs, and a show in June called “‘80s Prom Night.â€? According to Zwack, the Pioneer Place has season tickets available for the Fabulous Armadillos’

performances, which cover every show. “We will continue to do what we do,� Armstrong said. “We’ve been doing this and each of us had dreams of being rock stars, but we’re going to keep it a secret to St. Cloud.� The Rolling Stones Top 25 show will begin this Monday, Jan. 23, to Jan. 26 and then will begin again from Jan. 30 to Feb. 2. All performances will take place at Pioneer Place, located at 22 Fifth Avenue South, St. Cloud. The shows will begin at 7:30 p.m. with the doors opening at 6:45 p.m.

‘We Bought a Zoo’ is inspirational but unoriginal Ashmika Patke MOVIE REVIEW PHOTO COURTESY OF GAMINGDEAD.COM

‘Star Wars: The Old Republic’ was released Dec. 20. It is the new mass multiplayer online (MMO) developed by Bioware.

‘Star Wars: The Old Republic’ sells with graphics, replay value Ryan Hanenburg GAME REVIEW

An even longer time ago, in a galaxy far far away‌ Star Wars: The Old Republic is the new mass multi-player online (MMO) on the block. Developed by Bioware, famous for their RPG’s (Knights of the Old Republic, Mass Effect, Dragon Age), and published by megagiant EA. SWTOR is [M\ aMIZ[ JMNWZM \PM ÅZ[\ Star Wars movie in a time of war between the Galactic Republic and the Sith Empire. The setting is set up in a way that is instantly recognizable to fans of Star Wars lore. Though none of the characters directly from the movies are present, their archetypes are prominently featured throughout the world. Graphics: 8/10 SWTOR’s graphics are above the threshold for older games such as World of Warcraft and Guild Wars with no block shaped hands or foam swords. However, they are still below the standards of more modern MMO’s such as Aion and Rift. While this leaves the game playable on older systems it would be nice to have higher settings available for players with more powerful systems. One factor in SWTOR’s favor is \PM Æ]QLQ\a WN IVQUI\QWV# aW] really can’t judge the game from screenshots or even from the videos that are put out by Bioware. The game

looks wonderful in motion in a way that must be seen to be believed. Gameplay: 7/10 Gameplay in SWTOR is extremely reminiscent of WoW as it is also a keyboard shortcut based MMO. Many class abilities have counterparts in Azeroth and the basic system hails from there as well. There is also a bit of “ability lag� which can leave veterans a bit frustrated handling their characters. Bioware’s stated goal of “heroic combat� is still very much alive in SWTOR though. Taking on three people at once is the standard as opposed to other MMO’s one on one battles. Ability animations are visually engaging and combat is just fun in general. Story: 10/10 A fantastic plot is perhaps the main selling point of Bioware games in general, SWTOR particularly. Storylines in MMO’s have never been particularly strong but Bioware has changed the game. The immersion within the story is high and the choices you make feel as though you are deciding the fate of your character. It is very easy to ask yourself “what would my character do� in a way that most players never have in an MMO atmosphere. Each class’ story is different and all of them are appealing in different ways. Replay value: 9/10

Replay value is a different animal when discussing an MMO and should be instead referred to as “longevityâ€?. The key to any MMO’s staying power is endgame content which is raiding, crafting, economy, and group activities. SWTOR is a fairly standard MMORPG in these activities though it should be noted that it has launched with a fair amount more content than other games had at their launch. Something that should be noted is that at the time of this writing Bioware has announced that a new content patch is on its way barely 2 months after the games launch. If Bioware can keep to this kind of release schedule for content then the future for this game is looking bright. Overall SWTOR is an excellent MMO that may not always think outside of the box but is perhaps the best Bioware creation to date. If you’re a Star Wars fan or are just looking for a new MMO Ă…` \PMV aW] _QTT VW\ JM LQ[IXpointed. If you’re looking for a third installment in the Knights of the Old Republic series then you have plenty to look forward to here as well. Who knows? You might even extend your stay in a galaxy far far away beyond the “endâ€? of this game. Overall score: 34/40

“We Bought a Zoo� is a family comedydrama movie based on a “true zoo story� about a recovering family joining together to help a common cause. After an unexpected family tragedy, an average city family decides to relocate their residence to the country to get a fresh start. They get a surprise when they learn their new house is part of a zoo. The dilapidated zoo holds 200 animals from 47 different species around the world. Among the talented animal actors were monkeys, elephants, birds, pigs, zebras, chickens, horses and many more. Benjamin has recently become a widower and is intensely frustrated over his unfortunate situation and being a new single father. Fortunately, he has help from his older brother, Duncan Mee, an accountant played by Thomas Haden Church. Benjamin uses his determination and motivation for refurbishing the zoo to provide a wholesome experience and new life for his children, please his daughter, connect with his son, and distract himself from the absence of his wife and children’s mother. Duncan is bewildered by his younger brother’s abrupt decision to buy a zoo despite being nescient about animals. The family learns to be unpredictable, embrace their wild side and by doing so, they make remarkable things happen. The family is thrown into an immediate rescue situation, and must work together to restore a deteriorated zoo to its former glory to keep the animals’ homes. Ultimately, the zoo isn’t the only thing that is saved: the family is as well. The movie is directed and produced by Cameron Crowe. Moving and humorous, “We Bought a Zoo� is adapted from a memoir by Benjamin Mee. “We Bought a Zoo� was released to theaters nationwide on Dec. 23 and is rated PG for some language and thematic elements. Before the end of 2011, the movie had already grossed $23,399,816. Matt Damon plays the main protagonist, Benjamin Mee, a single father to Dylan, a young troubled teenager; and Rosie, a cheerful, friendly kid. While Rosie is excited about moving to a zoo, Dylan is even more infuriated about the family move and purchase of a country zoo. Scarlett Johansson plays Kelly Foster, the long-time lead zookeeper of Rosemoor Animal Park who doubts the Mees and is excessively

distressed about the zoo’s future. Both actors are exploring new types of roles in this movie, as Damon is more recognizable in IV IK\QWV ÆQKS IVL 2WPIV[[WV PI[ _WV I_IZL[ for roles in romantic comedies in the past. After watching the highly-acclaimed actress in numerous similar romantic movies as the sensual character, it was nice to see view ScarTM\\ 2WPIVV[[WV QV I NIUQTa KWUMLa LZIUI Ă…TU portraying a strong, complicated character with immense depth. Matt Damon is another remarkable example of a Hollywood celebrity who has grown from a young, talented actor into an experienced, well-acclaimed actor while still maintaining a consistent practical personality by raising a conventional family and has even aged well. Elle Fanning plays Lily Miska, Kelly’s young teenage cousin and the zoo’s restaurant waitress. Fanning is making quite a strong name for herself by portraying a bold character. Kelly and Lily are determined to save the zoo and are confused about the Mees’ sudden involvement. The child stars, Colin Ford and Maggie Elizabeth Jones, are charming as Dylan and Rosie Mee. John Michael Higgins plays the main antagonist, Walter Ferris, the serious zoo inspector, who is despised by most.

Exhibit educates on WWII persecution Stephanie Trottier CONTRIBUTING WRITER

The Holocaust was a vast persecution of Jews and those viewed as “undesirables” under Nazi rule during World War II. Besides Jews, multiple groups were targeted under Hitler’s rule. Nazis targeted Jews, Roma, Jehovah’s Witnesses, homosexuals and more, hoping to achieve the perfect Aryan race. In the Atwood gallery, the current exhibit focuses on the persecution of homosexuals. Brought in from the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum, the art and informative displays are available for viewing in Atwood’s gallery until Feb. 23. With the opportunity to host the “Nazi Persecution of Homosexuals” exhibit from the Jewish Community Relations Council of Minnesota and the Dakotas, SCSU took advantage of the chance. Professor Daniel Wildeson, director of the Center of Holocaust and Genocide Education, believes in the

power and impact of the exhibit. “Through learning about the history and the Holocaust’s relevance, students should look for different access points with present day relevance,” Wildeson said. With multiple displays featuring photographs, drawings, and volumes of text explaining the homosexuals’ perils under the Nazi regime, the exhibition is a showcase of history and human suffering. “The Nazis targeted many groups and took extreme measures, using experimentation to eliminate people they deemed genetically inferior, particularly male homosexuals,” Wildeson said. “You ask yourself: ‘What would I have done if I where there?’ or ‘Do I see anything like this happening now?’” Wildeson said, exXTIQVQVO I ZMÆMK\QWV XZWKM[[ for viewers. He explained we have the choice to relate history to our present day, intersecting one’s own life with the exhibit and experi-

ences. Wildeson said the students or any viewers should look for the object of education to develop as storytellers. Students should realize the points they would pick out to tell others about after viewing the exhibit and why they _W]TL [PIZM \PW[M [XMKQÅK highlights. “At what point do you acknowledge and respect the humanity of another person?” Wilbeson asked in regards to the prejudice shown toward homosexuals by the Nazis and even today. Wildeson told stories of young men being attacked or ridiculed simply based on their sexual orientation. He stressed the importance of respecting others and thinking about the consequences of our words as well. “Making comments like ‘that’s so gay’ or ‘that’s so retarded’ has implications, so paying attention to language is important,” Wildeson said. Based on the prestige and importance of the

United States Holocaust Memorial Museum pieces, the gallery is under constant surveillance. Volunteers, from students to alumni, community members, and RSVP (Retired Senior Volunteer Program), have been [\INÅVO \PM OITTMZa Katie Jo Bates, advisor of the SCSU Visual Arts Committee and assistant director for UPB, helped coordinate and set up the artwork. “I think this is a great new type of exhibit in the gallery because it is very different from other works we have shown,” Bates said. Usually, the Atwood gallery features work from one artist, instead of a large exhibit. The exhibit, entitled “Nazi Persecution of Homosexuals,” is a traveling display. “We are the only ones who have the exhibit in Minnesota, so the exhibit is unique,” Bates said. “I think the exhibit is educational, eye-opening, new, and different, and people should know and learn about these issues,”

Bates said. She encouraged everyone to experience the art. Wildeson explained the [QOVQÅKIVKM WN QVKZMI[QVO tolerance, a key factor in relating the art to present day as well. “We can learn to be an upstander, a new term meaning to be willing to stand up for victims, which takes courage, instead of bystanders in situations,” Wilbeson said. The “Nazi Persecution of Homosexuals” exhibit is open and free to absorb and view from Jan. 16 to Feb. 23 in the Atwood Memorial Center Gallery. The work is sponsored by the UPB Visual Arts Committee, the SCSU Center for Holocaust and Genocide Education and the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender Resource Center.

Eli Manning steps into NFL spotlight Alan Gall SPORTS COLUMN

The National Football League has [PW_KI[ML UIVa XZWTQÅK XI[[MZ[ \PQ[ season. But with so many players lighting ]X \PM [KWZMJWIZL IVL ÅTTQVO \PM [\I\ sheets, one quarterback has been left out of the conversation. Eli Manning has found himself at the helm of a successful regular season despite injuries at the running back position and intense scrutiny from the media. His numbers may not exceed the likes of Aaron Rodgers or Drew Brees, but he has led the New York Giants to yet another playoff run and surpassed both by advancing to the NFC Championship Game. Despite Manning’s Super Bowl victory over Tom Brady and the Patriots back in 2008, there are still widespread doubts as to whether he should be considered among the elite quarterbacks of this era. Before the season began, Manning was asked during an ESPN radio interview if he would consider himself in the same class as players like Tom Brady. He answered, “I consider myself in that class.” To put it bluntly, Eli Manning may be the most underrated quarterback playing the game today. The difference between Manning’s performance and that of other elite quarterbacks is the presence of a balanced offense that takes away from his passing opportunities. The Giants have always been a Z]V ÅZ[\ \MIU _PQTM ]VLMZ \PM LQZMKtion of head coach Tom Coughlin. Most game plans have consisted of a heavy dose of running backs Ahmad Bradshaw and Brandon Jacobs to allow for more effective passing opportunities. So understandably, Eli Manning is charged with managing games rather than having to win games with his arm alone. This is not to say that he is not an effective passer by any means. Since PQ[ ÅZ[\ N]TT [MI[WV _Q\P \PM /QIV\[ in 2005, Manning has had a hand in 183 touchdowns and has started every game during that seven year period. He provides a consistent performance

Eli Manning has found himself at the helm of a successful regular season despite injuries at the running back position and intense scrutiny from the media. that threatens opposing defenses with his precise execution. Manning’s success has much to do with the team that has been built around him. The Giants have a great pair of complementary receivers in Victor Cruz and Mario Manningham. During the regular season, they had nine and seven touchdowns respectively. The Giant’s offensive line has also stepped up this year, and has allowed only 28 sacks. But with a shining contribution of 20 interceptions recorded this year, the New York defense has been very good at giving their offense additional opportunities to put points on the board.

A smooth way to squeeze breakfast into your day Molly Willims HEALTH COLUMN

I’m your typical college student when it comes to breakfast: if I have the time, I’ll scare something up. If I don’t, I’ll scarf down a few helpings of WoW at lunchtime. Lately, I’ve been trying to include more fruits, vegetables and lean protein into my diet. I grudgingly accepted that breakfast time might be the optimal time. Then it dawned on me: smoothies. The salad of breakfast. The thing that allows you to throw crap in a blender willy-nilly and come out with something that feels a little like ice cream. First, you’ll need a blender. Depending on the weekly specials, a basic blender costs between $10-20. As a bonus, you can get blenders with removable pitchers that have lids designed for drinking on-the-go. Next, here are some of the basic building blocks for a budget smoothie.

Manning will most likely be inducted to the NFL Hall of Fame at some point in the future. His consistent play and natural skill has given the New York Giants organization a Super Bowl title after a 17 year drought. Manning has done about as much as any single player can do for a franchise. Hopefully fans can soon come to see 31-year-old Eli as something more than a solid fantasy football pick. In time, football fans will recognize his consistent success at the quarterback position and if longevity plays in his favor, football fans may see his likeness in the hallowed halls at Canton.

you can take these little guys in your pocket.

Canned fruit

Though not as nutritious as fresh, canned fruit is much cheaper, just as tasty and still provides some nutrients. I buy pineapple chunks, then pour some juice in the blender while I’m adding the fruit.

Frozen fruit

This is probably the most spendy aspect of my smoothie. With that in mind, I only use a little bit in every smoothie. Mixed berry blends and sliced strawberries are all packed _Q\P ÆI^WZ IVL KWTWZ [W Q\¼[ VW\ VMKM[[IZa \W ][M TWIL[ · R][\ a handful usually does me.

Vegetables

Use these cautiously; I had an unfortunate broccoli incident with a smoothie experiment last week. I tend to sneak a few baby carrots in because they’re sweet and blend in easily ÆI^WZ _Q[M XT][ \PMa OQ^M aW] V]\ZQMV\[ ]VQY]M \W ^MOM\IJTM[ that you may not be getting from fruit.

I use this as a base because it’s packed with protein and has zero fat. Couldn’t be more perfect. I use the kind that’s ÆI^WZML _Q\P PWVMa \W ILL I TQ\\TM [_MM\VM[[ IVL 1 IT_Ia[ buy on it sale.

Another optional piece. If you like a creamier smoothie, use milk instead of fruit juice, or go half-and-half.

Fruit juice

Honey

I tend to stick with orange because it’s the most common and it’s sweet without a lot of added sugar. It forms the perfect sweet-tart base for a fruit smoothie. Frozen juice tends to be cheaper by volume.

Fresh fruit

I’m very picky about my fresh fruit (read: I only get the cheap stuff) for my smoothies. Clementines or mandarin oranges are little, portable and ridiculously cheap, often just a quarter apiece. Plus, if you don’t have time for a smoothie,

Milk

If your smoothie isn’t sweet enough, don’t reach for the []OIZ <Za [WUM VI\]ZIT PWVMa 1\ KWUXTMUMV\[ \PM ÆI^WZ[ QV the fruit.

SCSU, UND hockey teams split weekend Ryan Fitzgerald CONTRIBUTING WRITER

The University of North Dakota left a bad taste in the mouths of SCSU Husky hockey fans as they routed the Huskies 3 - 2 to split the series on Hockey Day Minnesota. What made the taste even worse was a goal waived off at 19:29 of the third period.

Thorson was able to tip it in out of midair at 3:55 of the period. The Huskies never looked back as they seemed to gain momentum and more energy as the crowd help fuel them. “I liked how we got stronger as the game went on,â€? Motzko said. “UND had intensity all game, and we just had to match that.â€? After a little back and forth action with the physicality picking up, defenseman Jarrod Rabey netted the game winner at 9:24, with a blistering wrist shot from the top of the right circle. Taylor Johnson and Hanowski provided the assists on Rabey’s sixth goal of the season. Jared Festler capped the game off as he made a fancy move at center ice, took a few strides, and slid the puck into the empty net earning him his eleventh goal of the season. But the real reason the Huskies were able to come away with a win was because of freshmen goaltender Ryan Faragher, who stopped 41 of 42 shots in the Huskies 3 - 2 win. Thorson could only use one word to describe Faragher’s play, “unreal.â€? UND put pressure on Faragher all VQOP\ J]\ KW]TL VW\ Ă…VL \PM

Friday’s game

SCOTT HILLESHEIM / CONTRIBUTING PHOTOGRAPHER

Husky Shaun Jensen takes on a player from the University of Minnesota-Crookston Friday night.

After getting back on track and picking up two wins last weekend, the SCSU men’s basketball team fed off of that momentum and came charging out of the gates in a 69-57 Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference (NSIC) victory over the University of Minnesota-Crookston Golden Eagles at a festive Halenbeck Hall. The win improves the Huskies overall record to an impressive 14-2 and 10-2 in NSIC play. The Huskies got off to a near-perfect start with a 13-2 scoring run. The run was aided by great defense on one end with the Huskies playing smothering defense highlighted by Theo Rothstein taking a charge. The Huskies also had a balanced scoring attack, having four difNMZMV\ XTIaMZ[ UISM I ÅMTL OWIT L]ZQVO that stretch. The Golden Eagles would not go away silently and were able to trim the

Husky lead to two points with the score at 19-17. However, whenever they would begin a comeback the Huskies were quick to answer. This time Connor Niehaus began the rally with a 3-pointer, followed by junior point guard Shaun Jensen converting a free throw after getting fouled on a made layup.
