LIFE
One more round for Jon Waters A federal judge has decided to hear part of Jonathan Waters’ case against Ohio State University. U.S. District Court Judge James Graham ruled that Waters has legal basis to sue the university for “reverse sexual discrimination," according to The Lantern. Other complaints by Waters were discarded, such as the complaint that OSU didn’t give him due process when he was fired. This means that Waters’ claims against President Drake and provost Steinmetz are no longer relevant. Waters sued for a minimum of $1 million in compensatory damages in addition to the punitive damages, attorney fees and reinstatement that he’s seeking. While OSU attempted to dismiss the entire lawsuit, Waters’ lawyer is looking forward to the trial. Waters’ only remaining claim is that the university fired him because he is a man, and the university said they’re eager to provide the factual support that says otherwise.
Largest college has the largest deficit The College of Arts and Sciences, OSU’s biggest college, is facing a $10 million budget deficit, The Lantern reported. More than 2,000 faculty and staff are a part of the college, and many of them are fearful for its outcome. In addition to budget challenges, the college is facing more retirements than usual at the end of the academic year. Because of the deficit, it’s uncertain whether or not the positions of the retirees will be filled. Columbus Business First reported that the deficit stems from declining revenue. Students are taking fewer classes and there is a freeze on tuition, both of which are hurting the college’s budget. Last year was the second straight year that OSU trustees froze tuition for undergraduates. Now, state government officials are deciding whether or not to grant increases for the next school year. 8

An open letter to Ohio State and the people I'm leaving behind By @CAITLINESSIG a
G
raduating college is the end of an era, and I think that’s what makes it seem so unbearable. As the class of 2015 starts painting our caps, turning in final papers and saying our last goodbyes, there’s that lingering feeling that everything is about to change. I don’t mind change, in fact I think big life changes are exciting. But through the past four years up until now, no matter what big changes I made, I always had the safety net of college and my friends to come back to, and now I’m losing that. College is the best time of your life to try new things, make more friends than you can count and really mold yourself into the kind of person you want to be. And coming to the end of it just feels like a movie that cuts to the ending too soon, leaving so much unfinished business and lingering questions. I think that’s what I find so terrifying. No matter what, once May 10 hits, whatever was never done will never be done. Whatever choices I could have
made or things I could have done differently, I’m never going to be able to explore those options. And that’s why it’s so important to do everything you can to leave no stone unturned, no friendship unexplored, and no sentiments unspoken. It’s kind of cruel, but some of the best friends I’ve made in college are ones I’ve met within the last year and a half.
It would’ve been so easy to just stick to what and who I knew and to not bother meeting new people, but my life would suffer insurmountably because of it.
My best advice is to never stop meeting people and being open to new friendships. Never judge someone before you know them, and never decide someone is too old or too young to possibly relate to you. I’m 22 and a lot of my friends are 19 or barely 20. While that makes going to bars a little tough, having younger friends is like leaving a little legacy behind when you graduate. I feel so lucky to know

I might have impacted their time at Ohio State, and their lives might take a different course over the next few years because of something I said or did. Coming to Ohio State was the best decision I could have made. I took forever to commit to a school because I was completely lost about my future four years ago, but not much has changed there. While I still don’t have a perfectly defined direction, Ohio State has helped me get a little closer every day. I’m not sure there will ever be a way to express the gratitude I feel toward this university and the people I’ve been lucky enough to meet, but I’d like to try. Thank you, Ohio State, for everything. I am thankful for the Oval, which teases me when it’s warm and I have to walk to class and stands stunningly beautiful when it’s covered in freshly fallen snow. I’m thankful for Lincoln Tower, which I hated for its remoteness four years ago, but without which I wouldn’t have met some of my SEE UWEEKLY.COM FOR THE REST OF THIS STORY.

the power of power naps By @smikati_osu a
R
emember when we were kids and had an hour of naptime every single day? Remember when we used to get upset about that luxurious hour of naptime? I now look back on my complaints with regret – I would do anything to get my naptime back. The best part of any day is naptime. Without my naps, I become a cranky zombie wrapped in caution tape – and college only makes it worse. But what are the repercussions of our precious naps, and how can we do it right? Aneesa Das, assistant clinical professor and physician at the Ohio State Wexner Medical Center, said a good night’s sleep should always be preferred to naps. But, desperate times call for desperate measures, and Das says the best way to cope with
sleep deprivation is through 20 minutes naps – or power naps. “A nap for 20 minutes or less can wake you up, refresh you and get you over a hump,” she said. “But the key is if they’re not a replacement for sleep. It’s a temporary fix.” Das says to stay away from any naps that last longer than 20 minutes because of its effect on your sleep schedule, and your mood. “If you take a nap for more than 20 minutes, you wake up with that hung-over feeling,” she said. “You get in deeper phases of sleep. If you sleep less, you’re more likely to just rest your body for a little bit and perk up.” Sallee Ann Ruibal, a second-year in journalism and English, is a true fan of the power nap, which she said she always wakes up from feeling refreshed and focused. “If I nap for two hours, I feel unproductive to

society,” she said. “I wake up and I’m like, ‘I could’ve used that time to write my presentation instead of sleeping.’” On the other hand, Amanda Vaughn, a second-year in strategic communication, prefers longer, two-hour naps. “I won’t wake up after 20 minutes, I’ll just keep sleeping,” she said. Napping is what helps many students get through the day, but its benefits extend beyond because of its counter-effect on sleep deprivation. Research has shown that power naps boost creativity, refresh nappers and even improve their memory. Das explained its benefits through the impacts of sleep deprivation. “Sleep deprivation can increase our risk for certain mood disorders like anxiety or depression,” she said. “(It) affects our immune function, and it SEE UWEEKLY.COM FOR THE REST OF THIS STORY.

ll it takes is one moment to change the course of your life. I had that moment in one of Professor Kraft’s classes—I realized my passion for writing was more of a hobby, rather than a way to make my livelihood. It was her passion, experience and knowledge for journalism that showed me I lacked that enthusiasm. It’s also those reasons why she continues to inspire students today.
Professor Kraft, who’s been with OSU since 2004, utilizes the most up-to-date technology to teach and does so in real time. She champions her students and encourages forming a connection with their professors early on. Her advice to those graduating should be taken to heart, remembered and put into practice. What courses do you teach? I teach four courses each semester, and they usually include Media Writing and Editing, Magazine Writing, Enterprise Reporting in Diverse Communities and Media Law & Ethics. Other classes I teach include: our Lantern Practicum, News Design and Writing for Media. How long have you been teaching at OSU? I started as an adjunct just teaching magazine writing in Autumn 2004 and came on full time in Autumn 2010. Where is your hometown? Capitola, California. Why did you come to Columbus/choose OSU to teach? I was working as a magazine editor when I received a one-line email: “Would you like to teach full time?” I had been considering going back to school for a PhD to do just that, so I immediately

We are here to teach you the skills you will need to be successful in your future career, and learning and applying those skills transcend any grade. 2. Connect with your faculty early and often. We are here to teach, but we also want to get to know you and work with you throughout the semester. Having your first one-on-one meeting be a grade dispute does not benefit anyone. 3.

how to Stay out of that post-grad slump
G
raduating without a job already lined up can feel pretty daunting, but before you head straight into binge-watching half of Netflix or going on a perpetual summer vacation there are some things you can do to be a bit more productive with your free time and make sure not to become a townie with a college degree. First, it’s in my opinion that a break after graduation would do you good, but give yourself a deadline. A week of couch surfing, and then you start right into the job market. Some people might not need this, some people might need more, but it could probably do you good. Give you time to relax before jumping into the stressful job search. What’s important about this time is to give yourself a schedule. Keep yourself in that “routine” mindset that you’ll need to be in once you start a job. Pick a certain day every week to go to the coffee shop and stick to your routine. Wake up early and at the same time every day like you would during the workweek. Treat finding a job like your job. Schedule a time every day to devote to applying for jobs, research-
I
ing your field and companies, and tweaking your resume and LinkedIn profile. It might even help to give yourself a mental goal to meet in terms of how much you wish to accomplish in this time. Your job search is not the only important thing you can focus on during this time. Your social life is actually still an important factor. However, it would be best for you to surround yourself with successful people. It might be annoying seeing your friends who have jobs and are being successful, but their positivity and drive will have a much better effect on you than jobless slackers who have given into never finding a job or just partying. Additionally, it would help to find a productive hobby. Start a blog, professionalize your social media, or learn to paint. A hobby that produces something adds to helping you feel successful during this time, which is important. Once you get an interview, you want to seem positive and confident, not desperate and unfocused.

stages of coping without a job
t’s almost May. You don’t have a job lined up after graduation. What does this mean?: -At first, you’ll be shocked. How could you not have a job? How could you LET yourself not have a job lined up by now? -This will inevitably lead to denial. Ignore the issue for awhile. Focus too much energy waiting on that call. Even the day before graduation, there’s still hope. -You start to think you’d do anything to get a job. You will kiss the CEO’s feet. You’ll actually focus on the final in that class you’re already passing if karma will get you a job. Anything. -It’s around this time you’ll start to feel guilty that you didn’t try harder to get a job in the first place. Maybe you shouldn’t have gone out one or two of those nights. Everyone’s telling you it’s okay, not everyone has a job. None of it really makes you feel better. - It just makes you angry.

HOW do you still not have a job? And how come you’re even expected to have a job already?
You just got done with 16 straight years of academics haven’t these people heard of a break! -This is typically where all that anger peaks and then you drop. You dive into your vice of choice, giving into a future of living with your parents under a mountain of student loan debt. No one will ever hire you. It was four years wasted. You should have been an engineer. -Don’t worry. Finally, you will get up off the couch. You will realize you have 6 months before you have to pay your student loans. Things are looking up (as in looking up jobs cause you might feel better, but you still don’t have a job).

Now, four years have passed and everything is different. Those same friends have now found jobs, and they’ll soon be moving to different cities all across the world. Many are now engaged, or married, and some of them might even have children. Many of your professors will soon forget you, and your parents have long been adjusted to not having you around. Indeed, four years worth of changes have piled up, and you likely never took the time to notice that things were any different. And then there’s you. If you’re anything like me, you’re feeling very much the same in spite of all these changes. Indeed, despite all that’s happened in the past four years, you’re feeling just as naïve, just as inexperienced, and just as unsure as that 18 year-old version of yourself that crossed the Lane Avenue Bridge for the very first time four years ago. Here you are, about to receive the diploma that symbolizes your four long years of hard work. Four years of new experiences. Four years of new knowledge. And yet you probably feel no more deserving, no more experienced, and no more knowledgeable than you did at the start. At least, I hope that’s how you’re feeling. Because that very well describes my own situation. I’ve enjoyed my past four years at Ohio State more than any other time in my life. But even so, I’ve spent a fair amount of time waiting for this moment—waiting to graduate. I always thought that I’d put on that cap and gown and instantly feel as though I’d grown up. That my life would fall into place, and that I’d know what I wanted to do and where I wanted to be. And now, as I’m staring down the finish line, I realize that I know none of those things. Society lays out this plan for us. It says that we must finish high school, finish college, and then it guarantees that, perhaps magically, things will fall into place. But life is hardly so linear, and it is rarely ever certain. A year ago, that uncertainty was crippling. A month ago, daunting. But today, I can say with honesty that I am thrilled by that lack of direction. From this point forward, life is an open book. A path that has yet to be paved. We will have each have a college degree that can never be taken away from us, and what we do with those degrees is truly up to us. Yes, there’s student debt. There’s the reality of making decisions and being expected to follow through with them. There will be more than a fair share of goodbyes to be said, and there is plenty more learning to be done. But all-in-all, I’m feeling fine, and you should too. ‘Cause we’re graduating, bitches. Our time has finally come.

hosts with the most OSU Softball to host B1G tourney in May By @_JBloomfield a
T
he 2015 Big Ten Softball Tournament will be hosted by Ohio State from May 7-9 at Buckeye Field. The Buckeyes will look to repeat a strong performance in last season’s tournament where they lost in the semifinals as the seven seed. The last time OSU hosted the Big Ten Tournament was in 2007 and the Buckeyes won the championship. Head coach Kelly Kovach Schoenly is excited to have the support of the home crowd. “Our fan base has been fantastic this year,” Schoenly said. “We really cater to the young softball players in our area. I believe the fan base will experience some extremely competitive softball. The conference is very strong this year and I expect some epic battles out there.” This year’s squad is optimistic that they can make another deep run in the tournament behind their leaders Caitlin Conrad and Maddy McIntyre. Conrad, a senior who will graduate with a degree in community leadership within the College of 16
UWEEKLY • April 15, 2015
Food, Agricultural and Environmental Sciences, will play her final games in the Big Ten at home. “I think I can speak for the whole team when I say we are all excited that we are hosting the Big ten tournament this year,” Conrad said. “There is nothing like playing on our own field.” Conrad is a member of Kovach’s “Cannon Crew,” a nickname given to the special group of outfielders who take pride in their ability to throw out opposing base runners. Conrad is also among the team leaders in nearly all offensive statistical categories and homered twice in last year’s tournament. McIntyre, a redshirt junior, is in her fourth year with the program as well after sitting out last year due to injury. She has had a long road back from injury, but is playing at the top of her game for the Buckeyes at the right time. “Our trainers and strength coach created a program off the field to strengthen other aspects of my game,” McIntyre said. “Understanding that my uweekly.com
throwing thumb would be permanently fused took me a while to wrap my head around. My coaches really stressed to only worry about the things that I can control and to trust the process for the rest.” McIntyre, like Conrad, is among the team leaders in offensive categories, including the team lead in home runs. Schoenly has referred to the two players as the “Mickey Mantle and Roger Maris of softball” as they chase each other in the home run race. She added what the two bring to the team. “The combination of these two players and what they add to our program is huge,” Schoenly said. “Commitment, fire, skill, competitiveness. It’s all there.” Watch out for these Buckeyes and the rest of the softball team as they make their late push at a conference title in Columbus. “I really believe we can surprise some people this year and I know we are all looking forward to it,” McIntyre said.

buck stops here A look at the Buckeyes in the NFL Draft By @_JBloomfield a
A
fter weeks of coverage, rumors and mock drafts, the NFL draft is finally here. While it’s always an exciting event as an NFL fan, the draft also offers another opportunity for bragging rights for college football fans. For Ohio State fans and students, it’s another chance to cheer on and congratulate a few players who were a part of the team that just brought the school a national championship. Since the draft coverage has expanded to three days in 2010, OSU has had three players selected on day one, the first round. The three players include two from last year in Bradley Roby and Ryan Shazier, as well as Cameron Heyward back in 2011. This season, it seems unlikely that a Buckeye will be selected on day one. Wide receiver Devin Smith, however, has an outside chance if someone reaches on the deep threat. Smith’s stock has been rising throughout the draft process, but it’s likely he’ll go in round two. Smith’s big-play ability should translate into the NFL. Day two figures to be a big day for the Buckeyes in the 2015 NFL Draft. In addition to Smith, three other prospects could see their name called on Friday night. Defensive tackle Michael Bennett is likely to go in the second round. He has seen his stock fall somewhat due to injuries limiting his participation at the NFL combine. Bennett’s a highly intelligent and motivated player with a high motor and quickness in the trenches. Cornerback Doran Grant and tight end Jeff Heuerman could see their names at the end of day two or the start of day three. Grant, a cousin of Smith, is a bit of a developmental project that has the size and physicality needed at the next level, but may be lacking in his footwork. Heuerman is similar in that he has the size but may lack some of the big-play ability at the position. He is a top-three prospect at SEE UWEEKLY.COM FOR THE REST OF THIS STORY.

the king of options Jesse King relishes pro options following OSU career By @M_McGreevy a
J
esse King can’t find a better word than “bittersweet” to describe his feelings about leaving the Ohio State men’s lacrosse team. On one hand, the senior captain will miss leading the Buckeyes. On the other, he’s got some good things to look forward to. King is set to begin his professional career when the OSU season concludes in May – now the only question is where. Despite being drafted by the Rochester Rattlers in the 2015 MLL Collegiate Draft, King is not set on his post-school plans. The Victoria, British Columbia native has three options: play in Rochester, return home to play for the Victoria Shamrocks in the Western Lacrosse Association or try to do both. “The goal is to play as much as I can,” King said. “If I can play lacrosse for a few years … that would be ideal for me.” Over the past two seasons, King has played for the Shamrocks during OSU’s offseason – notching
88 points in 25 games for the Senior A box lacrosse team in British Columbia. “There’s so much pride behind playing there because it’s my hometown,” King said of Victoria. If he returns this year, King will have a chance to do two things he’s never done before: hoist the Mann Cup (what King refers to as the “Stanley Cup for lacrosse”) and earn money. The collegiate season forced him to leave the 2013 and 2014 Mann Cup and his status as an NCAA athlete has prohibited him from signing a professional contract with the Shamrocks during the past couple years. There’s a possibility King can play for the Rattlers and Shamrocks this summer, but the need to earn money on the side has complicated plans. For now, King is focused on the season at hand, as the Buckeyes are headed toward the inaugural Big Ten Championship starting April 30 in College Park, Md. photo by david heasley/uw

Clear skies and line drives Clippers end week with four-game sweep By @GEOFFHAMMERSLEY a
I
f you thought April showers were just a myth, think again. Last week, the Columbus Clippers dealt with a frustrating rain on Saturday night — a rain that would be on-and-off and linger throughout the day. Said rain forced the Clippers to move their Saturday match with the Louisville Bats to a doubleheader on Sunday. The doubleheader showcased the Clippers’ strength at the plate. A 7-1 victory in the first game followed up with a 4-2 win in the second completed the four-game series sweep of the Bats.
Back to the start
Nick Swisher suited up in a Clippers uniform over the weekend. Swisher, who is rehabbing from an injury, lined a shot to right field in the second game of the doubleheader — doing his part to help the Clippers reach nine total hits. In all, Swisher went 2 for 4 with a run.
They like the long ball and they cannot lie
While the Louisville Bats symbolize the animal, the Clippers brought the bat of the wooden variety.
Two home runs were hit at Huntington Park in the second game of the doubleheader on Sunday. Jesus Aguilar rocketed a shot in the first inning, while Michael Martinez blasted a shot in the fourth inning. ……….. Let’s take a look at what next week’s action has in store for the Clippers, as well as the promotions at good ole Huntington Park. The upcoming schedule (assuming rain doesn’t rudely interrupt) • Wednesday & Thursday: at Rochester (6:35 p.m. start Wednesday; 11:05 a.m. start Thursday) • Friday - Sunday: at Syracuse (7:05 p.m. start Friday; 1:05 p.m. start Saturday and Sunday) • Tuesday: vs. Charlotte (6:35 p.m. start)
Promotions
When the Clippers return to Huntington Park on Tuesday, they will be running the “City Barbeque 4 for $5 Night.” You get four delicious City Barbeque ribs for $5 at the City Barbeque stand in right field.

Did you know? Once upon a time, former New York Yankee greats Derek Jeter, Andy Pettitte, Jorge Posada and Mariana Rivera all wore the Columbus Clippers uniform at some point in their minor league careers. Known as “The Core Four,” the quartet was instrumental in bringing five World Series rings to the Bronx.

tracking the truth
Are all those fitness gadgets worth it?
A
merica is slowly being overrun with fitness trackers: Fitbits, Jawbones, Apple Health and Vivofits, just to name a few. They promise an easy solution to living a healthy life: Just wear this device and you’ll suddenly be privy to a vast wealth of data about yourself. It sounds pretty great, but do they actually work? Do they actually help change peoples’ habits and lifestyle? No. I don’t think they do. As they currently stand, fitness trackers only gather data about what you’re currently doing; i.e. not sleeping enough and not moving enough. Most of these trackers will alert you when you hit some arbitrary number of steps (basically a glorified pedometer) and inform you about how restless you slept last night. But what these trackers are missing is this, real-time suggestions on how to actually improve your health. Picture this: You wake up groggy, achy and sticky like you were sweating in your sleep. You check your iPhone and your fitness tracker tells you that you slept like shit. Okay, great. You’re smart; you deduce that your room was too hot, so you resolve to turn down the temperature/use a fan tonight. But wouldn’t it be awesome if instead of you having to do that work, your tracker alerted you to the temperature in your bedroom the night 20

before and suggested that you turn it down because the ideal sleeping temperature is between 67-69 degrees for most people? Yes, that would be awesome. Because it would actually be relevant to your life, and inspire you to make real changes to better yourself. Here’s another idea: Your fitness tracker pings when you walk into Kroger saying “since you’re already here, why not grab some veggies?” Or say you ride the bus everyday and your fitness tracker pings you to suggest that you get off a stop early and walk the rest of the way. Fitness trackers allow for all of us to collect massive amounts of data about ourselves, and the current technology even allows for significant improvements to be made in our consumers interact with the product. However, until Apples, Jawbones and Fitbits of the world get their act together to create more than a glorified pedometer, fitness trackers will continue to be purchased January 1 and 50 percent end up in the nightstand by January 15.

hances are you're in the middle of cramming for finals and suffering from a lack of sleep, exercise and proper nutrition – all that Red Bull and junk food is the best study fuel, after all. But once you knock your tests out of the park, it's time to get back to normal: it's time for a detox. This detox is only 48 hours and by the end of that time, you should be feeling energized, rested and definitely not bloated. Mornings – Start your morning off with a hot cup of black coffee or tea. The caffeine not only wakes your body, it actually increases blood flow and ramps up your metabolism. Also for breakfast, blend a spinach (or kale) strawberry pineapple smoothie. Use one cup of spinach and a half-cup each of frozen (no sugar added) strawberries and frozen pineapple. Add about ½ cup of unsweetened almond milk or water, and blend until smooth. If you want, you can also add a scoop of your favorite protein powder. Afternoons – By lunch you should drink at least 30oz of plain water to help flush the junk out of your body. For lunch enjoy another cup of coffee or tea, as well as 2 cups hot reduced sodium chicken broth. You’ll also enjoy a plain sweet potato topped with spinach and feta cheese. If you’re craving protein feel free to eat 4oz deli turkey breast. Dinners – By dinner make sure you’ve consumed another 60 oz of water. This seems like a lot, but it works out to just under three 24oz water bottles. For dinner sauté one, 4-5oz-tilapia filet seasoned with salt, pepper, and lemon. For sides, roast one cup asparagus or broccoli at 425 for 12 minutes, as well as cooking another plain sweet potato or roasting carrots at 425 for 50 minutes. Before bed – Put away all electronics about 30 minutes before going to sleep. Stretch for at least 15 minutes, and either 1) read a book or 2) journal for another 15 minutes. Then close your door, turn off all your lights, and go to bed. After this simple, 2-day cleanse, you’ll feel rejuvenated from the inside-out.

Columbus theatres ready audiences to assemble for 'Avengers' sequel By ANNALISA HARTLAUB
T
he first “Avengers” movie set box office records, grossing a whopping $207 million its opening weekend and ending with $1.5 billion worldwide. “Age of Ultron” is expected by many to be the biggest film of the summer, and a few local theaters shared what they’re doing and expecting in preparation for the film’s release Thursday. UWeekly: Are you doing anything special for the premiere? Johnny DiLoretto, Gateway Film Center: Absolutely! We're going all-out for the premiere of “The Avengers: Age of Ultron.” On Thursday, beginning at 6 p.m.we start our “Avengers Geek Sneak” pre-release party.

Comic Town comic book shop will be there giving out free comic books, we'll have great food and drink specials, and we're most excited about our custom-created program of Avengers-themed onscreen entertainment. We're the only theater in Columbus that does anything remotely like that.

with beers that people have never had before, (which is) our way to celebrate Craft Beer Week. No other way than a beer tasting from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m., with “Avengers” at 4 p.m. Then on Monday, we are tasting Sierra Nevada Bigfoot Ale prior to the showing of “Avengers,” with some prizes, cake and costumes. UW: What kind of turnout are you expecting? JD: This is going to be the biggest movie of the year so we're expecting nothing less than a monstrous turnout; hundreds of excited Marvel movie fans and wall-to-wall excitement that night. This is the sequel to one of the biggest, most beloved movies in Hollywood history. We can't wait. This is what being a movie fan is all about – this kind of breathless excitement for blockbuster spectacle. LM: This is anticipated to be the biggest movie of the year – so we are expecting an enormous turnout. We’ve seen some footage and it looks great. EB: It should be our best movie of the year, probably sellouts. UW: Any special accommodations for the premiere? JD: We will have “Avengers” on four screens with as many showtimes as possible so that we can accommodate demand. We'll have no shortage of showtimes so that you'll be able to see it practically uweekly.com
whenever you want. And we expect the most rabid fans to be coming back to see this one again and again. LM: (We’re) cooking up loads of convenient showtimes and planning to show the film on multiple screens. EB: We’ve got plenty of showtimes available. Jeff Stang, manager of The Laughing Ogre comic book shop in Clintonville, talked about what opening weekend will be like from the comic book side of things. UW: Will you see an increase in sales? JS: Yes, we definitely will. Everyone’s been looking forward to this for so long and Free Comic Book Day is also that weekend. [Ed. note: An exclusive “Avengers” comic will be available for Free Comic Book Day.] UW: What will Free Comic Book Day be like? JS: All the big publishers will be putting out books so we’ll have a lot of free comics at the shop. Also, Marvel and DC will be promoting their new books and we’ll get a taste of what’ll be out in the rest of 2015 and 2016. UW: Are you excited for the new movie? How you feel about the last one? JS: I’m so excited. How could you not love the last one? I think Joss Whedon will definitely knock it out of the park again.

South Oval turns into a 'passion pit' By JACK LYNCH
P
assion Pit kicked off the North American wing of its current world tour to a warm Buckeye welcome at OUAB’s Big Free Concert on the South Oval Saturday. Students turned out en masse to hear the band’s exuberant, heavily synthesized brand of pop, led by lead singer Michael Angelakos, whose borderline eunuch voice climbed into the stratosphere with ease. The tour is in support of the band’s new album, “Kindred,” which was released April 21. While some new tracks were featured live, including the recent single “Lifted Up (1985),” the band also played a wide selection of old favorites, like “The Reeling” and “Little Secrets.” “The concert last night was a lot of fun for me,” said longtime fan Sean Gleeson, a second-year in business. “I thought all the members killed it and I love the way they reworked ‘Smile Upon Me’ from their first EP with new synths and crazy vocal sampling.” But in spite of the high-energy performance on stage, there were certain pitfalls associated with the free show, including a muddy mix that covered up some of Passion Pit’s signature bright synthesizers. “I’m grateful we have the opportunity to see cool bands for free, but I feel like a lot of people go just to say they went,” said Annie Thrower, a second-year in political science. “(There were) too many tall frat boys standing in front of us.” It’s true that there were awkward moments in the crowd at Saturday’s performance, most of which having to do with inebriated dudes attempting to force their way to the front, but there were also moments of genuine connection between the musicians and the crowd, especially during tracks SEE UWEEKLY.COM FOR THE REST OF THIS STORY.

he Liner Notes started out as the offhand idea of bassist Chris Bolognese: start a cover band, but perform a different album in its entirety every month instead of having a rigid style or genre. “I think the musicianship in this band is really excellent,” Bolognese said. “I threw out the idea over Facebook and cherry-picked the people who I knew had the chops to do it.” After performing killer renditions of David Bowie’s classic “Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders From Mars” and Neil Young’s “After The Gold Rush,” The Liner Notes have their eyes set on Radiohead’s monolithic “OK Computer,” an album that revolutionized alternative and indie rock. “I think it’s hard to overestimate the influence of ‘OK Computer’ on indie rock and alt rock in general,” guitarist Drew Stedman said. “You hear its sounds and textures even on poppier, more radio-friendly indie rock.” With tracks like the dark piano ballad “Karma Police” and the progressive epic “Paranoid Android,” “OK Computer” seems like an ambitious choice to learn in its entirety, even for a group of experienced musicians. Fortunately, The Liner Notes are confident for their upcoming performance. “It’s pretty much like a replica,” said drummer Jesse Cooper. “We’re trying to get it as close as we can for sure. We’re all trying to be as true to the album as we can, because as a fan that’s how you want to hear it.” “OK Computer” is a nostalgic record for The Liner Notes, who have strong memories associated with standout tracks. Guitarist Rob Bradley fondly recalled a radio DJ referring to “Paranoid Android” as “possibly the greatest song ever recorded” the first time he heard it played. To see what could possibly be the greatest cover show ever performed, check out The Liner Notes at King Avenue Five May 2 with special guests Playing To Vapors and Paper Waves.
What would OSU's version of The Avengers look like? By BRYAN FRAKER
“
Avengers: Age of Ultron” is coming out Friday and it’s certainly going to be a huge hit. The first one was a commercial and critical success so there’s no reason to think this movie would be any different. This trend of superhero movies isn’t going to slow down at all since every film is a money maker. So to fully capitalize on that, Ohio State should create their own Avengers-esque group of superheroes that students and alumni could really get into. There are plenty of possible choices for an Ohio State superhero group. First thing is a proper name. My vote is The Buckeye Brigade. It has alliteration, informs people that this group is based out of Columbus, and it is very campy. We can make T-shirts, hats and everything else. Hooray money! Who will we make the leader of The Buckeye Brigade? Urban Meyer, of course. He’s the most popular person after the national championship win, he’s got Robert Downey Jr. looks, and the man can do no wrong. Now we need to get a hot chick. Enter Chrissy Teigen. She’s married to John Legend and he’s a big Ohio State fan. Chrissy’s got the looks and a great personality that will be perfect for The Buckeye Brigade. Naturally we’ll have her topless at various times so that’s cool. So now we have a leader and a hot chick. Where’s the muscle? That will be filled by a steroid-fueled Brutus Buckeye. We’ll take the basic mascot get-up but make him super muscular. He can run through walls, throw cars at bad guys and kick ass. A final member of the team will be an actual student. No superpowers or anything. We just raffle off a chance to be involved with the other three people. I’m getting my tickets right now for The Buckeye Brigade. Sounds pretty sweet.

TECH
a job in tech post-graduation? no prob.
G
raduation time can be stressful for a bevy of reasons, with maybe none more so than having to find a well-paying job right out of the gate. Luckily, it appears that with the nation’s successful job growth over the last few years, the availability of tech industry jobs is also growing. The job market is strong these days for companies looking for anyone with technical, engineering and computer skills. In fact, according to a “USA Today” analysis of workforce projections, there are 1.8 million new high-skill jobs expected to be created by 2017, about a 6% increase from 2013. These jobs include computer engineers, data analysts, physician assistants, software developers and petroleum engineers, to name a few. They all require the standard four-year bachelor degree and will be responsible for 27% of all new jobs over the next few years. In particular, there is an immediate demand for younger applicants for most of these new jobs, which has been the subject of a lot of controversy lately. It’s well known that youth reigns in the tech industry—Silicon Valley especially—but there are some who feel that job ads are becoming increasingly ageist.
According to “Fortune Magazine,” “Apple, Facebook, Yahoo, Dropbox and video game maker Electronic Arts all recently listed openings with ‘new grad’ in the title. Some companies say that recent college graduates will also be considered and then go on to specify which graduating classes—2011 or 2012, for instance—are acceptable.” Ever since Facebook settled an age discrimination case with the California Fair Employment and Housing Department in 2013 regarding a job posting for an attorney, many have been careful in their job posting practices. Routine job requirements like “four years’ legal experience” will fly with no problem but for Facebook it was the phrase “class of 2007 or 2008 preferred” that posed trouble. Controversy aside, the influx of opportunities available for newly minted college graduates is decidedly good news. “U.S. News & World Report” recently posted a list of the current top 11 tech jobs available: 1) Software Developer, median salary – $90,060, unemployment rate – 2.8 percent 2) Computer Systems Analyst, median salary – $79,680, unemployment rate – 3.6 percent 3) Web Developer, median salary – $62,500,
unemployment rate – 4.2 percent 4) Information Security Analyst, median salary – $86,170, unemployment rate – 0.9 percent 5) Database Administrator, median salary – $77,080, unemployment rate – 3.6 percent 6) Civil Engineer, median salary – $79,340, unemployment rate – 3.4 percent 7) Mechanical Engineer, median salary – $80,580, unemployment rate – 3.1 percent 8) IT Manager, median salary – $120,950, unemployment rate – 3.2 percent 9) Computer Programmer, median salary – $74,280, unemployment rate – 4.5 percent 10) Computer Systems Administrator, median salary – $72,560, unemployment rate – 3.9 percent 11)Computer Support Specialist, median salary – $59,090, unemployment rate – 6.6 percent For a good idea of what’s available for you, check with OSU’s career services. It’s a great tool for anyone looking for a job right away and an invaluable (and free) resource that you will miss once you are out of school.

aredevil renewed for second season
Following its successful launch on Apr. 10, Netflix and Marvel have announced that their latest hit, “Daredevil,” starring “Boardwalk Empire” vet Charlie Cox, will indeed be getting a second season. While at first blush the news may not be all that surprising given the abundance of superhero movies and TV shows, the interesting aspect of this second season pickup is how it’s going to alter Marvel’s Netflix plans moving forward. Initially, Marvel and Netflix had teamed up to bring four separate series to the streaming service: “Daredevil,” “AKA Jessica Jones,” “Luke Cage” and “Iron Fist.” Each of these shows was set to get a single season, debuting one year apart, ultimately culminating in a team-up show called “The Defenders,” a street-level version of Marvel’s Avengers. Now, with the news of its show’s overwhelming success, Marvel will be forced to alter its plans on the fly and it will be interesting to see how the next few series’ narratives will have to fit into the originally planned timeline with a second season of “Daredevil” coming before “The Defenders.” It should be noted that the second season of
“Daredevil,” which returns in 2016, will be switching showrunners, from Steven DeKnight to Doug Petrie and Marco Ramirez.
Aziz Ansari’s new Netflix series
Treat yo’ self! Aziz Ansari and Netflix are teaming up once again but this time instead of another standup special, Ansari and “Parks and Recreation” writer-producer Alan Yang are creating a new comedy series for the on demand powerhouse. Ten episodes of the still untitled, half-hour comedy show have already been ordered but there has yet to be a release date set. However, it would be a safe bet to expect this series sometime in 2016 at the earliest. Another exciting name tied this announcement is another “Parks and Rec” vet. Michael Schur is set to executive produce the series and for any fan of “The Office” or “Parks and Rec” this comes as great news, as Schur has been in charge of some of the funniest TV shows of the past decade. The series is currently being filmed in New York City and joining Ansari in the cast are comedy vets H. Jon Benjamin, Eric Wareheim, Noel Wells and Kelvin Yu.

H
ailing from northern Ohio, first-year Elisa Khawam brings fashion individuality that speaks to both modern and vintage eras. A health science major, her love for alternative music greatly inspires her outfits—her favorite influences include The Black Keys, Modest Mouse, Jimi Hendrix and Janis Joplin. She enjoys bringing a bit of style diversity to OSU, and isn’t afraid to go outside of the box. Her fashion confidence and her helpful style advice teaches us all about the importance of originality and staying true to who we are.
FLANNEL $15 THE GAP
SHIRT $5 URBAN OUTFITTERS
How would you describe your style? When I’m not wearing t-shirts and shorts and dressing like a boy basically, I’m wearing more alternative clothing. I’m always wearing jeans and leggings and random shirts— people tell me a lot that I look homeless. But I like it! I have six flannels and I just interchange them everyday. And then when I go out with friends, you know you’re supposed to get dressed up. But my friends get mad at me because I always wear something ridiculous or weird or not nice or girly enough. What inspires your fashion? The music I listen to inspires my style pretty heavily. I listen to pretty alternative music sometimes. I have a lot of friends back home who have influenced me, too. Like, my best friend is just like me and she started dressing this way when we were in elementary school—she’s always been kind of weird. So, those are the things that influence me. Are there days where you explore other styles? Yeah, sometimes I find myself dressing sort of preppy and I’m like, “What am I doing?” I have preppy clothing so I don’t have any problems with it, but it’s not me. Other days I’ll dress sporty. It just depends, but I never feel myself until I dress like I’m dressed today. How does your style affect you personally? My fashion reflects what type of person I am. I’m laid back and I convey that with the way that I dress. I don’t want to dress uptight, cause I’m easygoing. When I’m super dressed up I feel weird and self-conscious.
JEANS $20 T.J. MAXX
What’s your process in putting an outfit together? I usually go with my gut really fast and I give myself five minutes to figure out an outfit. So really, I never think about it. I just kind of go in and put it all together. Half of the time, it doesn’t look right, but I do it anyway! What do you think makes your style significant? I guess it’s because I don’t try to dress like everyone else. I even sometimes try to go further and dress differently than the ‘alternative’ look. When I see something that everyone’s wearing, then I don’t want it as much. My fashion doesn’t follow the big trends.

@Platinumandpenniless This girl is the epitome of her name: she is blonde and has no money. Shooting photos of her OOTD in NJ, she shows that everyone can look good and not pay a fortune. Most of the stuff she photographs comes from fast fashion favorites like Forever 21 and Topshop. The way she puts her grungy-chic outfits together makes all her followers a little envious. @StyleOnTarget After perusing through this girl’s Insta for a few minutes, I came dangerously close to giving Target all of my money. Her fashion is classic and understated. As college students living on a shoestring, it’s nice to find a great style that’s easy to replicate. Each outfit she features has at least one item from Target, reminding all of us that Target is way more than a grocery store. @Kaitlinkkeegan A cute-as-a-button style blogger, this girl not only looks fashionable but leads a fashionable life (bouncing back and forth from NYC to Mumbai). Her posts put preppy and comfortable into one stylish combination. But what I love most about the way she ’grams is that she always mentions when things are on sale, almost out of stock, if they run big/small, etc. She’s always lookin’ out for her followers!

DIY RING CONES Never lose your favorite rings again By SARA WILSON a @_SARA_ISABEL_
I
misplace my rings all the time. After a long day of wearing them, I find that I often set them down in random places, subsequently forgetting their location. Especially with tiny midi rings at the finger fashion forefront, I feel like I’m constantly losing rings now. Luckily, I found an easy way to keep track of them: you can stick them on wooden cones you find at craft stores. And if you take a few easy DIY steps, they’ll look super cute sitting in your room. The solid wooden cones are ultra cheap; you can get a ton of these little guys for a few bucks. While you’re there, pick up some paint and paint tape. You will use the paint to paint the base and give them a bit more decorative look, and you’ll wrap the tape around for a straight line at the base. They are so cute, and perfect to slide your rings on at the end of the day. Never lose your rings again!

All you need is chocolate Le Chocoholique will make your night out sweeter

o you ever think the Saturday night bar and party scene gets a bit monotonous? Good thing you live in Columbus; there are loads of fun options you are missing out on. The Short North is the Arts District of Columbus. Not only are there fantastic galleries, there are also countless culinary destinations in the Short North, and Le Chocoholique is one of them. Le Chocoholique started in 2010 in hopes of bringing beautiful and delicious chocolates to the people of Columbus. Le Chocoholique owner, Monica Barr, and her son, Justin Barr, work together to make the shop a success. Justin is a self-taught chocolatier constantly inventing new chocolate creations. From caramels, to fruits, to nuts, to spirits and more, there are chocolates for everyone to enjoy. The shop’s chocolates are locally inspired and often made with local ingredients. Any Ohio State student that visits the shop must try the Buckeye made with smooth milk chocolate, creamy peanut butter and a hint of sea salt. Le Chocoholique is a unique night out, but not 32

only for the chocolate. The shop features the artwork of many local artists. Currently, the works of Columbus Academy art teacher Andy Rahe are on display. “This show in particular is about how I see myself making connections, and I hope people feel a connection to it through seeing it. My true hope is that it brings a shared experience between me, as the maker, and you, as the viewer. Hopefully people find things they like about it, and if not, I know they will like the chocolate and drinks.” Rahe loves having his work in an environment like Le Chocoholique. “I like showing in a good local business with great products too. Wine, chocolate and art. What’s not to love?” Plan a unique night out with friends, chocolate and art at Le Chocoholique. The shop is located in the Short North at 601 N. High St.

ou probably pass food trucks daily serving pizza, tacos, gyros and more. But where are all the dessert trucks? Sweet! The Mobile Cupcakery is making its way around the streets of Columbus to satisfy the sweet tooths of the city’s residents. Sweet! is an entirely mobile, non-storefront bakery serving exclusively cupcakes. Sweet! The Mobile Cupcakery offers five signature cupcake. These standard options include the “Billy Idol,” the Buckeye, the Tri-C, red velvet and carrot cake. The “Billy Idol” is a standard white wedding cupcake topped with vanilla buttercream frosting and a hint of almond. The Buckeye cupcake is made with dark chocolate fudge cake and plenty of peanut butter buttercream frosting. The Tri-C cupcake is for the chocolate lovers. It comes
with a chocolate cupcake base, chocolate buttercream frosting and chocolate sprinkles. The red velvet cupcake is a classic take on red velvet with cream cheese frosting. Finally, the carrot cake cupcake might not taste like it, but it’s made gluten-free. Sweet! also offers seasonal cupcakes. Some of these options include a pumpkin spice cupcake, a raspberry lemonade cupcake and a salted caramel apple cupcake. Sweet! also does catering for events like weddings, birthdays, graduations, corporate events and more.

ultimate cinco de drinko recipe
last call, seniors Make the most of your crawl
S
enior Crawls, a time in which graduating students reminisce their four years of drinking on campus by bar-hopping with the masses, equipped with paraphernalia, most notably a t-shirt, announcing to bystanders that this is their last rite of passage. Inevitably, the seniors get far too drunk to travel home by simply walking, hence the use of “crawl.” And since the crawl is always on the last day of exams, you already are geared to let off an immense amount of steam. While other institutions may have their own version of senior crawls, Ohio State’s crawl is dubbed a tradition as monumental as the Mirror Lake jump or attending a football game in the obnoxiously entertaining student section. Plus, the more than 4,000 likes on the OSU Senior Crawl Facebook page is nothing to scoff at. So, are you thinking about joining in on the fun? Here are a few friendly, helpful tips to make the most out of the last thing on your Buckeye bucket list. FREE T-SHIRTS. A major perk and also a free memento! Double win! You can get your t-shirts ahead of time at Pursuit, 1572 N High St, on Sunday, May 3rd. Invest in multi-colored Sharpies. Think of that shirt as a throwback to your middle school year34

book, where everyone wrote really deep things like, “stay cool!” as if you wouldn’t see them again in 3 months. This time though, your acquaintances are off to greener pastures. You can figure out what chicken scratch, incoherent message belongs to who the next day. Add OSU Senior Crawl To Snapchat. Barcadi is the official drink sponsor of the event and, as promised, OSU Senior Crawl is giving away free bottles of Bacardi through the app to some lucky graduates. Use the free booze to pre-game! Know Your Route. This year’s bar participants include Blue Danube, Out R Inn, Ugly Tuna, Ethyl & Tank, Chumley’s, BW3s and more. Spread out across campus, there are plenty of opportunities to crawl to your next destination. A full list of sponsors can be found at www. osuseniorcrawl.com And finally… EXPECT AWESOME DRINK DEALS! Drink Bacardi to your heart (or liver’s) content. If you want to venture old stomping grounds that aren’t sponsoring the event, no big deal because it’s also Cinco De Mayo. Pretty sure you’ll be covered.

F
act: Americans will care far more about Cinco De Mayo than Mexico’s locals, but who cares? It’s an excuse to down some bomb ass margaritas, tacos and guac. I give you, the Frosty Mexican Bulldog Margarita ... Ingredients: 5 Cups Ice 1 Cup Tequila ½ Cup Grand Marnier 1 Cup simple syrup 5 Limes 1 Orange 6 Coronas 1/3 Cup Coarse Salt 1. Roll the limes and orange gently on the counter. Doing so will yield more juice. 2. Juice limes and orange in a measuring cup. Add 1 cup tequila, ½ cup Marnier and simple syrup. 3. Salt the rim of your glasses by using your finger to swipe lime juce, then dip it into a shallow bowl of coarse salt. 4. Add cup of ice to blender and enough margarita mixture that it doesn’t cover the ice. Blend. Add more ice and mix until desired thickness. 5. Pour frozen margarita into rimmed glasses. 6. Open a Corona and pour it upside down in the glasses, submerging it into the margarita. 7. Serve and enjoy!

On the growl: lineage brewing
G
ood news: a brand spankin’ new spot opened for craft beer lovers in Clintonville. The space, filled with plenty of natural light is a far cry from its past as a car/pet wash. The garage door and urban vibe nestles perfectly into Clintonville’s atmosphere. Owned and operated by two local couples, Lineage is a force to be reckoned with in the craft beer scene. What is on tap is also available in a growler, varying in price based on the beer. The growler itself is $6 and a fill will cost you anywhere from $1214. Not bad! So, what’s on tap for this new joint? Try the popular “Mike Drop,” a coconut porter with hints of coffee undertones, perfect for pairing with one (or two!) of Lineage’s unique brunch specials. Mike Drop is $14 to fill. If you have a taste for history, give Arm Buster a try. An American oatmeal stout, it is named after an influential Clintonville local, Mathias Armbruster. The roasty, chocolatey stout pairs well with bacon. Notable mentions include the rye pale ale and Shoot-the-Chutes cream ale. Don’t be fooled by the relatively small selection. The beers are so outstanding that Lineage already has some faithful, loyal customers coming out of the woodwork.

FROM RUBY WITH LOVE
I
When I think about you I touch myself
swear when I hear some of my friends stories it makes me feel a whole lot better about my dating history. A friend of mine recently told me a pretty hilarious story about one of his exes. I mean we’ve all had crazy ones, but this just made me laugh. Apparently she punched him in the face, and then a week later left a note on his car saying that she wanted to marry him. I mean like went all Rocky on him and literally punched him in the face. Because that’s normal, wait, what? So, let’s start with why. She went all psycho and started throwing right hooks because she found porn on his computer. Crazy right? First of all he is a twenty something dude, and I can’t imagine pulling the history on any guys computer and not finding at least one porn site. I’m pretty sure my brother has a file of nudes not only on his computer but his phone too. That’s beside the point, but just about everyone watches porn at one point or another. By everyone I literally mean everyone, guys are not the only ones who watch it. Let me just say there is absolutely nothing wrong with that. My poor friend’s girl claimed that it was cheating for him to watch porn. Cheating? Hardly. Cheating can happen one of two ways. Emotionally or physically, and by physically I don’t mean lubing up and watching girls have fake orgasms and have some dude finish on their stomach. I mean touching yourself is probably the furthest thing from cheating. If you want to sit and rub one out, go for it. If that isn’t bad enough the whole marriage proposal on the hood of the car is straight out of a romance novel. I mean who wouldn’t want to get decked in the face then want to spend the rest of
their life with that person? Sounds like a winning marriage if you ask me. The best part of him telling me this story is that she apparently liked to watch porn too. Sooooo, why not compromise and watch it together? Watching porn together could probably be the best way to spice things up in the bedroom. You never know what you could learn. Having sex is better than what they show in the videos, but there are some pretty interesting positions that you could always try. If nothing else it would definitely put you in the mood for a little afternoon delight, or morning delight, or whenever. If your partner tries to pull the whole cheating card for you wanting to watch porn, just remind them that when you touch yourself that most of the time you are thinking about them. Even if that’s not always true, it at least makes them feel better. Hell there is even a song that says: “I don’t want anybody else, when I think about you I touch myself.” Granted that song came out before most of us were born, but you get the idea. Watching porn is definitely not something to be ashamed of, or apologize for. Most of the people that you will date will either assume that you do, or just not ask. You’re not cheating, and maybe you and your other half don’t get to have no pants dance parties as often as you would like. How do you think the majority of long distance relationships work? If you don’t want the other person to find it, you’re your computer locked, or delete the history when it’s necessary. Don’t make it weird. Love, Ruby
