Administration, faculty reach resolution over cuts Agreement includes severance pay, reappointment of five individuals By Eric Lagatta Campus Editor

active in community Alicia’s Voice gives up headquarters, to help educate women who are victims of domestic violence By Danae King Editor-in-Chief

Victims of domestic violence in Wood County will no longer be able to go to Main Street in Bowling Green and pick up supplies or get a rent check. Instead, they’ll have to meet someone from Alicia’s Voice in town or in Perrysburg for assistance. The non-profit organization, which works to raise awareness about domestic violence and provide resources to victims, has been at 344 S. Main St. for three years. Rather than pay $5,400 for a year’s rent on the organization’s building, the board members decided to use it to help victims of domestic violence, said Kathy Newlove, founder and education chairperson. “It’s not changing anything,” Newlove said. “[Women] can still get a hold of us the same way they have been.” Once the lease is up, the organization will still exist, but its supplies will be stored in the basement of the Perrysburg Municipal Court, where one of the board members works. The organization was considering giving up its headquarters last year, but when word got out, the community offered support to keep it in Bowling Green for another year, Newlove said. Newlove said the organization had the money to stay open this year,

University officials and the Faculty Association may have clashed in the wake of 40 faculty cuts this past semester, but recently they’ve been able to come together to reach some sort of consensus. This week, both parties announced a resolution resolving disputes about the faculty cuts the administration announced in November. The agreement addresses the 30 non-tenure track faculty on one-year contracts who were notified their contracts would not be renewed, as well as the 10 faculty members on terminal contracts. “We agreed that we need to move forward together,” said Bill Balzer, vice president for Faculty Affairs and Strategic Initiatives. “We’re happy we’ve been able to reach this agreement.” Part of the agreement provides severance pay to 18 individuals with four or more years at the University. Individual severance pay is between $8,680 and $26,410 at a rate of one month per every two years of service, Balzer said. The amount is based on years with the University and salary. The University will pay a total of approximately

Winterfest to take place this weekend Festival to spotlight ice sculpting, live music, raise money for high school softball team By Kathryne Rubright Reporter

Ice sculpting demonstrations and live music are a few of the events students can check out at Winterfest this weekend. Some of the most exciting parts are the ice sculptures and the carriage rides, said Wendy Stram, a cochair of the Winterfest planning committee. “We have a lot of tried and true events,” Stram said. There are also new events, like the Snowflakes on Display art exhibition and the Children’s Penguin Costume Party.

Artists to display work in downtown windows

Snowflakes on Display showcases local talent during Winterfest By Marissa Stambol Reporter

During the month of February, local artists will display their work in the shop windows of downtown as a part of the exhibition Snowflakes on Display. This is the first year for the exhibition, which will be a feature of the BG Arts Council’s annual Winterfest, said Jamie Sands, event coordinator. Snowflakes on Display is a free event for both artists and guests and gives the public a look into the talents Bowling Green artists have to offer.

There will be an indoor portion of the exhibit at Myles Baker Street during Winterfest, Feb. 14-16, while the storefront displays can be seen throughout the whole month, Sands said. The largest displays will be in the windows of the Library, Serenity Salon and Spa, Main Street Photo, Main Street Antiques and Aardvark Printing, she said. “Bowling Green [has] a lot of very talented artists and it’s always a great thing to be able to highlight their talents and their efforts especially when it’s ... all throughout downtown,“ Sands said.

$300,000 in severance, said University Spokesperson Dave Kielmeyer. Sansanee Longbrake, instructor in the School of Teaching and Learning, said the severance pay many faculty will receive is “the least the University could do,” but it’s not the best option for faculty no longer employed. “Severance or not, it’s not a job,” Longbrake said. “That’s only a certain amount of money that doesn’t guarantee us anything.” Longbrake is one of the 30 non-tenure-track faculty members who will not return in fall. Longbrake has been at the University for nine years, which made it unexpected for her to find out her time at the University is coming to a close. To her, it doesn’t make sense. “One word I can use to sum it up is ‘disappointment,’” Longbrake said. “It was out of left field. It’s just upsetting.” The resolution also reappoints five individuals on terminal contracts for next academic year. This was the result of these faculty members filing successful seniority challenges to their non-reappointment. But while five of them will return, an additional five non-tenure-track faculty with one to three years of service will be cut as a way to “offset” the returning terminal faculty, Balzer said. Those notifications will be made by April 1, as stipulated in the Collective Bargaining Agreement.

WINTER From Page 1 Other events include live music, the Frostbite Fun Run, a dodgeball tournament, a chili and soup cookoff and a pancake breakfast benefitting the Bowling Green High School girls’ softball team. Students can participate without leaving campus by going to the public skate at the Ice Arena. However, Barbara Ruland, director of Downtown BG, said Winterfest is a chance for the downtown area to showcase what it has to offer.

“We’ve done the best that we can to make the best of a bad situation.”

QUICK FACTS ABOUT THE RESOLUTION

Both parties avoid grievance, opt for informal resolution After the administration announced the faculty non-renewals in November, a legal team went to work to see if the action was in compliance with the CBA. The Faculty Association determined there was a class action grievance violation to the contract, said Jim Evans, Faculty Association contract and grievance officer.

“That’s a very large number for one such situation,” Evans said, referring to 40 faculty getting cut at once. “To get such a large group all at once was something that called attention to itself.” The initial step of the new grievance procedure is to attempt an informal resolution of the disagreement. “We realized we could work together to come to some mutually acceptable solution,” said Evans, professor in the Geology Department. “We kept pursuing through some ups and downs.” Balzer also said it was a positive sign that the two parties could find common ground without resorting to the arduous grievance process, which could have left all sides unsatisfied, he said. “We started seeing there might be some opportunity for more conversation,” Balzer said. While an agreement was reached, Evans and Jackson were not completely satisfied, as the same number of faculty will ultimately still lose their jobs. “It’s not like we’re thrilled to death this happened because we’re sad for this loss,” Evans said. The resolution also requires that both sides consult one another prior to future similar actions “so that we’re not continually blind-sided,” Jackson said. As for Longbrake, she will begin looking for another job either teaching or counseling, but she said she will not be looking for one at the University. “I don’t know if it’s in my

best interest,” she said. After Longbrake has spent the past nine years at the University, she has developed connections with her students and colleagues. “I look back and absolutely I have very fond memories of working here,” Longbrake said. One of her main roles at the University was to coordinate and teach the largest class for the education program, the intro class. The course enrolls about 300 students a semester. “It’s really one of the best courses you can teach,” Longbrake said. “It’s a little sad to think I won’t have that opportunity anymore.”

“Anything that brings people downtown that may not have been here before is good,” Ruland said. Ruland said once people see what the downtown area has to offer, they usually come back. Businesses try to take advantage of this. “People look for ways the event fits their business,” Ruland said. For some restaurants, this is by participating in the Sandwich Stroll hosted by the Bowling Green Arts Council. “They each have chosen a sandwich they want to feature,” said Beth Jensen, a Winterfest planning com-

mittee representative from the BGAC. For $10, attendees will get five tickets allowing them to get a “generous portion” of whichever sandwiches are featured at the restaurants they go to, Jensen said. There are 10 restaurants to choose from. The event, new to Winterfest last year, is a fundraiser for the BGAC. “It was a great bargain,” said Ruland, who participated this past year. “You can eat for two days on your $10.” Stram said the first Winterfest was created in 2009 “surrounding the fact

that it was the 25th anniversary of Scott Hamilton’s gold medal.” Hamilton grew up in Bowling Green and attended the University. He won a gold medal in figure skating at the 1984 Winter Olympics. Winterfest is also meant to be a cure for the winter doldrums, Ruland said. Winterfest will be Feb. 14-16. “Not too many places do a three day event,” Stram said. Stram said that with all the events and activities available, “[there’s] no excuse not to get out of the house.”

David Jackson | Faculty Association President Another two individuals who were originally cut will return next year to jobs that opened at the University and Firelands in November. “We’ve done the best that we can to make the best of a bad situation,” said Faculty Association President David Jackson, an associate professor in the Political Science Department. “We’re optimistic that we can continue in the spirit of cooperation.” That cooperation will include both parties continuing to focus on recruiting and retaining students, particularly during the President’s Day event on Monday. “Faculty have always worked hard to recruit and maintain students,” Jackson said. “We’re more than happy to encourage faculty to keep up the good work.”

• Five faculty members on one-year terminal contracts will retain their jobs through seniority. • This means five additional non-tenure-track faculty will be cut to offset. Those will be announced April 1. • Two non-tenure track faculty who were originally cut will be reappointed to another job at the University that opened in November. • All cut faculty will receive a benefits package.

• 18 faculty with four or more years of service will receive severance pay between $8,680 or $26,410. The amount is based on years with the University and salary. • The University will pay out a total of approximately $300,000 in severance.

Disney brings first LGBT couple on show Viewers speak out with various opinions By Christina Stanley Pulse Reporter

FEB

14

After Russian President Vladimir Putin’s recent crackdown on homosexual “propaganda” and the start of the Olympics in Sochi on Feb. 7 there has been an influx of LGBTQ commentary in the media. Though most frequently coverage has been focused on reactions and protests against Putin’s agenda, the newest commentary on gay rights for Americans has been much closer to home. Disney has recently introduced the company’s first gay couple onto the children’s television show, “Good Luck, Charlie.” The two moms, Cheryl and Susan, were first introduced to the show on Jan. 26 when they made an appearance while bringing their daughter Taylor over for a play date with the show’s main character Charlie. Though the appearance was quick and the overall plot line was focused around Charlie’s older sister Teddy and her preparations for college, many conservative groups have already spoken out against the episode. One Million Moms, a conservative group mainly for mothers, strives to “protest the attempt to desensitize America and push filth into our living rooms.” The group condemned the episode, launching an email campaign urging care.com to stop sponsoring the Disney Channel. One Million Moms has had luck with this strategy in the past urging sponsors to pull funding for shows such as NBC’s “Save Me” and ABC’s “666 Park Avenue” consequently playing part in the shows’ eventual cancelations. Director of Service Learning Jane Rosser, who has been involved in several LGBT service groups such as an LGBT support group, has a different view on the matter. Rosser said the media has a large part to play for young children growing up in a largely diversified country and that the ability of children to see their families and personalities represented in the media is imperative. “I would applaud Disney,” Rosser said. “I don’t think that everything is perfect about Disney, but they are responding to the community they serve. Media has begun to embrace showing the LGBT community and certain kinds of families. Individuals who don’t want their children to watch that show, control the TV remote.” While some are shocked or horrified at Disney’s actions, others are more supportive. Freshman and public health major Sarah Borovicka said she didn’t think the couple’s introduction should be such a big deal. “A lot of people in my family are gay or bisexual so I guess I’m just used to it,” Borovicka said. Though the choice to debut the couple is controversial, the decision has also garnered support from people of all standings. Miley Cyrus

Computer software business creates mobile apps for organizations Agile software factory provides students with professional experience By Geoff Burns Pulse Editor

After six years as a business, the Agile Software Factory continues to not only help the community and the University, but also help students gain professional experience in their field of work. Associate professor in the department of Computer Science Joe Chao started the business in 2008 and has made apps such as Campus Maps and Campus Calendar to name a few for the University as well as a disability app to help those with brain disorders to get things done in a day. The company also creates apps for other professors and has even made a company app for the Cocoon Shelter, Behavioral Connections of Wood County and the Office of Service-Learning. Chao said the business started as a class project that grew kept growing. “I have five student employees and they get paid to do something they like,” Chao said. “It’s been

“It gives me experience that I can relate to my class work and something I can put on my resume.” Andrew Horner | Junior really successful and is a great hands-on learning experience.” The Agile Software Factory offers part-time employment, joining students in software development classes to create programs and prepares students for further education in the field. Junior Andrew Horner started working for Chao in 2012 and said he gets to do what he wants with the job, which is software development. “I was really excited because this was my first job related to computer science,” Horner said. “It gives me experience that I can relate to my classwork and something I can put on my resume.” Although the business gives

students professional experience in the field, it is competitive for someone to land a position for Chao. There are many people who apply for the position but only five are hired because of costs to keep the Agile Software Factory going. Senior Chris Bailey originally worked at Wal-Mart until hired by Chao. He said he finally got the chance to earn money doing something useful. “It’s really the first person that Dr. Chao finds that is qualified to work there,” Bailey said. “He’s been in the market and now he’s a professor so he knows how the software development works and he can pass on the knowledge we need.” Chao is in the process of trying to get the Agile Software Factory to grow and to “find a way to make it a business and not a hobby.” Chao has had job recruiters visit the University to search for students who could possible work for them one day. “With experience from my class, they can fit right in,” Chao said.

“The lego movie” Movie | Grade: A By Seth Weber Web Editor

I must preface this review by saying I was obsessed with Lego as a child; Lego is an essential part of my being. I had thousands upon thousands of Lego bricks and obsessively watched stop-motion animation videos using Lego online. I’ve waited for a Hollywood Lego film for years and now that it’s out, I can confidently say it does not disappoint. “The Lego Movie” could have been a cynical cash-in; a 90-minute commercial. However, it’s obvious the creators put a lot of work and love into this film that brings it to life. The animation in this film is jaw-dropping. Somewhat disappointingly, it isn’t stop motion, but one couldn’t tell at a glance. The animation does a wonder-

ful job of capturing the spirit of stop-motion videos that have come before it and truly makes it feel like Lego came to life. Every frame is full of life and action, which makes it impossible to catch everything in one viewing. Great writing supports the animation, bringing fun jokes and characters. “The Lego Movie” is thoroughly goofy and is sure to make the most cynical crack a smile. The cast is great and is made up of actors including Will Ferrell, Morgan Freeman and Will Arnett. The film pulls from countless intellectual properties such as “Star Wars” and “DC.” Will Arnett’s portrayal at Batman is great and pokes a lot of fun at his gruff, serious character in the

Math, physics can be more fun than you think greg burleson Columnist

People who do not believe math and physics can be fun astound me. A few years back, I was watching an old western movie with my brother. Just about every character was being thrown through saloon windows at a disturbing rate; however, this seems surprisingly common for this genre. Suddenly, my brother announced that if he had to go back in time, he would choose to go to the “wild west” and be a window maker because he would seemingly have a neverending demand for saloon windows. Being forced to answer the same question, I would certainly go to ancient Rome and be a military engineer. A thousand years after Rome, Leonardo DaVinci would take the same profession and if it is good enough for him, it is good enough for me. Among my works, I would beat Charles Darwin to the punch, introduce linear perspective, and “invent” the trebuchet. Implementation is the point that math and physics get fun. For those who do not know, a trebuchet is a powerful siege weapon designed to raze any structure to the ground. It operates using a

simple lever on a fulcrum in a similar fashion as a seesaw. A heavy counterweight produces tremendous velocity and a heavy projectile is slung great distances. The applications for a trebuchet in the Roman world would be somewhat limited based upon the relative absence of large fortifications on scale with medieval Europe; however, applications would not be non-existent. For an example of how a trebuchet works, let’s say a group wanted to attempt to lay siege, to pick an arbitrary location, on McFall, Mo. This is how they would do it: After collecting the necessary resources, they would set out to build the ideal trebuchet. An elevated fulcrum is driven through a long beam. The counterweight portion consists of a heavy weight of roughly 100 times the weight of the projectile while the opposing end of the fulcrum is between three and 3.75 times longer than the counterweight portion. A sturdy frame is required to combat mounting centrifugal forces which would tear the trebuchet apart. A productive fulcrum for a large trebuchet would be eight feet in the air and the beam’s support would be perpendicular to the base. An eight foot base would create right triangles with sides of eight and four feet long. A necessary support would need to be included at 45 degree angles. With side

4

A being eight feet and side B being four, the hypotenuse of the triangle, the support beam, would need to be just under nine feet. The counterweight is manually raised in the air, upon the fulcrum, to create potential energy. Upon the releasing of a trigger, gravity pulls the counterweight down and pivots the long arm, with the projectile held within a sling, in to the air. A pin keeps the sling from releasing until a desired degree of release is achieved— with 45 degrees generally being considered an optimum degree. With a sling properly attached to the long arm of the lever, an arm totaling in length of about 20 feet, a sufficient counterweight and assuming a lack of any non-restrictive weather conditions, this trebuchet would be capable of firing an 8-14 pound bowling ball over 300 feet in a parabolic arc. This is sufficient to cover the distance from the Student Union to McFall, Missouri’s namesake building— McFall Hall. Neither I nor the University’s administration, housed in McFall Hall, can condone using a trebuchet to raze either of these locations. I merely wish to demonstrate what is possible and that math, physics and history can work together to create something that is a lot of fun.

Past massacre leaves mark on history Phil Schurrer COLUMNIST

Take a northbound walk along the 2100 block of Clark St. on Chicago’s nearnorth side. On your right are rows of two and three-story apartments and condos, some more than 100 years old. On your left, more rows of small businesses, condos and apartments of the same vintage adjoin one other. You also notice a parking lot on your left, surrounded by a high wrought-iron fence, adjoining a modern nursing home. All along the street, the structures in good repair, the grass cut and trees trimmed. Pause and try to picture this spot 85 years ago today. On that cold and snowy Thursday morning at around 10:30, two men wearing Chicago police uniforms emerged from a 1927 Cadillac police sedan and entered the building that once occupied the site of today’s parking lot. Two other men in civilian clothes remained in the car. The building at 2122 North Clark St. bore the name “S-M-C Cartage Co.” A front window, topped by a small awning, had been painted black on the inside. Upon entering, the policemen found seven men in the garage area and ordered them against the wall, palms

on the bricks and their backs facing the officers. Presently, the two other men in topcoats entered the garage from the car. Unbuttoning their overcoats, each produced a Thompson machine gun. What followed was pure slaughter. It became known as the St. Valentine’s Day Massacre. Prior to Feb. 14, 1929, gangland killings on Chicago streets were hardly novel. But public revulsion against gangland killings began building after the St. Valentine’s Day Massacre. The pendulum of public opinion had begun to change course. The turn of public opinion is not new. We’ve seen this phenomenon on many occasions. Prohibition itself began in the Midwest and garnered enough public support to enable ratification of the Eighteenth Amendment to the Constitution. Thirteen years later, partly due to the lawlessness that Prohibition had spawned, as well as the impact of the Great Depression, it was repealed. Some of its most vocal supporters had become its most vigorous critics. The pendulum had swung back. Not so long ago, drunken driving was regarded as tolerable so long as one wasn’t caught or caused an accident. Smoking in buildings was regarded as generally acceptable. Public opinion has since radically shifted

regarding both behaviors; the pendulum has dramatically changed course. Renewable energy was all the rage, especially in Europe. But with the high energy prices that renewable energy commands [some German energy prices from renewable sources have tripled], rethinking the entire renewable energy model has begun to occur. The pendulum has begun to swing back to a more economical approach toward the cost and use of energy. The Catholic Church has been regarded by some as authoritarian and rigid, possibly due to the perception of the personalities of some popes. Pope Francis has altered this view somewhat, due to his engaging personality and his concern for the poor. Although Church doctrine won’t change, Francis’ personality has caused the pendulum of opinion to reverse course somewhat. Thomas Jefferson is reported to have stated, “In matters of principle, stand like a rock. In matters of style, swim with the current.” The change in public opinion is, in many cases not only healthy, but also necessary. Equal attention needs to be paid to both standing firm for principles and knowing when the shift of public opinion is occurring. On many issues, the pendulum will reverse yet again.

Blind support of troops leads to unjust wars, discourages dissent Ian Zulick COLUMNIST When I examine the discourse surrounding our involvement in foreign conflicts, I’m often left wondering when people really stopped thinking for themselves. I wrote about this topic to a point last year when I talked about the idolatry of the military in our society and at the time, I secretly feared that I had gone too far in writing what I wrote. But I fear I didn’t go far enough. The following statement will offend many readers; an offense that is regrettable, but one for which I refuse to apologize: I do

“Do you support the troops? Answering ‘No’ in our society seems tantamount to treason these days.” not support the troops. This does not mean I wish them ill, this does not mean I am not in favor of helping them in any way we can once they return and this certainly doesn’t mean I don’t sympathize with the loved ones of fallen soldiers, but my conscience as the citizen of a supposedly freedomloving nation can no longer abide by the conflict in which they are taking part.

While I do not resent any singular soldiers or members of the military, supporting them in their every endeavor, no matter how flagrantly justified or unjustified becomes a litmus test for every American citizen when they are asked “Do you support the troops?” Answering “No” in our society seems tantamount to treason these days, but I’m willing to bet I’m far from the only one who feels this way. Many say, “I support the troops, but I don’t support the war.” While this is an admirable and certainly wellmeaning distinction, I think it is ultimately a misguided one. How can we support the troops if we don’t support what they’re doing? How can we call every single soldier a hero

when some of them end up committing war crimes? This does not make their choice more or less admirable than any other, but I refuse to be made to feel guilty for not supporting them in an unjust war that I did not ask them to fight. My point is this: The military has been an all-volunteer force for some time now and not since Vietnam have young Americans been forced to either go fight a war they may not believe in or duck the draft and be called a coward and a traitor. I understand that many of that era, including the veterans in my family felt they had no choice in the matter, but today this is not the case. We all have choices in life, and no one forced these young men and women to take up arms,

nor were they coerced; they did so of their own volition. I’ve heard many people contend that they’re defending our freedoms. I also think this is untrue. How do the deaths of young Americans in the Middle East make you and me freer? If anything, the threat of terrorism has led many Americans to turn a blind eye to constitutional blights such as the Patriot Act and the continued use of Guantanamo Bay — a threat whose members are all the more enraged and emboldened by our continued presence in their countries. In other words, the war they are fighting to protects our freedoms, yet the threat of the enemy they are fighting is used to justify taking our freedoms and civil liberties away? This is a blatant

paradox. We the people must not support the troops or the government in any unjustified conflicts, for if we do, we are consenting to the oppression of other people as well as resigning ourselves to the herd conformity of nationalism. Next time you see military members lauded at sporting events or in commercials, think what you are really supporting by saying “I support the troops,” because if the powers that be see that we will support any war, what then will stop them from doing as they wish if we the people are too scared or ashamed to voice dissent?

Miller said. “It’s an excellent tool for keeping up with rapidly evolving slang; the more we use it, the less it’ll tip into the lude, off-color stuff.” There w ill almost always be a gap in communication between new and old generations, as older generations have their own slang terms.

expressed her approval of Disney’s decision on Twitter saying, “I commend Disney for making this step into the light of this generation.” Cyrus has been very involved with the Disney Channel in the past when playing the character of a country superstar named Hannah Montana on the network from 2006 to 2011. “Good Luck, Charlie” has been airing on Disney since 2010 and is currently in its fourth and final season. Though the same-sex couple Cheryl and Susan will most likely not be making another appearance before the series finale, this is still a very big step for Disney, which has never before introduced a gay couple onto any of their programs.

This decision is very influential coming from one of the biggest companies worldwide which, according to “Forbes Magazine,” employs an estimated 166,000 people and earns just under $43 billion yearly. Sociolog y Professor Wendy Manning who has done research on the LGBT community said Disney’s decision to put this in the show serves as an important element of today’s culture. “It is a reality of the landscape of American families which are not normally portrayed in popular media,” Manning said. “[It] reflects the changing nature and diversity of the U.S.” American’s may continue to see this nature changing if Disney decides to integrate more characters of all sexualities into their programming.

M.A.C. CENTER ‘MAGIC’

Kent State’s game winning shot ruins senior Cameron Black’s homecoming, Orr still chasing 200 wins By Cameron Teague Robinson Sports Editor

Wednesday night was Bowling Green senior Cameron Black’s final trip home to the M.A.C. Center at Kent State University where he attended his first basketball camps and grew up watching even people from the Kent coaching staff play. The 6’10” 258-pound center did not let the emotions of this game get the best of him as he had the best game of his career. Black finished with 18 points, nine rebounds, three assists and three blocks. “I just wanted to come out, give my best effort and make everyone proud,” Black said. “I wanted to play my hardest. Whether I scored or not I just wanted to keep playing.” No block seemed more important than the block he had on Kent guard Kris Brewer as he attempted the game-tying jumper with four seconds left. Black blocked the shot out of bounds and what came next could only happen in what the Kent players called the “magic” of the M.A.C. Center. “They drove to the right and I kind of baited Jehvon’s man into a layup and got the block,” Black said. “The last possession was just a lack of communication from the guys on the floor.” In the huddle, before the inbounds play, Kent coach Rob Senderoff called play C.The play was meant to get the ball to their guard Devareaux Manley. Manley had made four of 11 shots before the play but he knew he would make this shot, he said. “I knew I was going to make it,” Manley said. “I’m just glad coach called my number and I could respond the right way and make the shot.” Manley caught the ball in the left corner and with one shot, he ruined what looked to be a homecoming celebration for Black. He nailed the corner three to give the Golden Flashes the 62-61 win. “It’s tough because we are right there with a chance to win,” Black said. “It’s been like that a lot of games this year, it’s tough.” That one point win was the largest lead for the Golden Flashes the entire game as they held one-point leads three times throughout the game. The Falcons have stressed starting fast and they did exactly that this game jumping out to a 13-0 lead. They followed that 13-0 run by turning the ball over four times in the next five possessions, allowing Kent to cut the score to 15-8. Both teams ended the game with 19 turnovers. “It was a great start, probably one of our best of the year,” Black said. “We just did not stay focused during that stretch to keep that kind of lead.” They were led by Derek Jackson, who scored 25 points on 8-11 shooting and 5-7 from behind the three point arc. “We knew he was a capable scorer,” BG head coach Louis Orr said. “He was probably the most deadly of all their guards tonight.” This makes it two games in a row lost on game-winners for the Falcons. They will look to turn their luck around Saturday when they travel to Muncie, Ind., for a match against Ball State University. “We have to be resilient, we gotta bounce back,” Orr said. “When you persevere and you keep getting up you can grow from it. It is painful when you go through it because we are this close but I’m hoping our guys will draw closer together and keep fighting.”

The BG hockey team will face the Alaska-Anchorage Seawolves this weekend in an important WCHA road series.

The BG women’s basketball team will go on the road to Eastern Michigan on Saturday, Feb. 15 nearly a week after their last game. BG enters Saturday’s matchup at 20-3 overall and 10-1 in conference play. The Falcons are coming off of a bye week, following their win over Miami last Sunday. Head coach Jennifer Roos said that this bye week “could not have come at a better time.” “[The day] allows them to rest a little bit, catch up on some homework and also to have some aching bones and bruises heal up a little bit more, but we were excited this bye week happened when it did,” Roos said. They will play Eastern Michigan for the second time this season. Roos said once they reach the point in the conference slate where they start facing teams for the second time around, the Falcons must add new things here and there. In order to catch familiar opposing teams off guard in the second matchup, the Falcons must incorporate new plays from time to time customized for each opponent. Although both teams are already familiarized with one another, Roos said that the second time around has a different feel to it. “Anytime you play an opponent for the second time around in con-

ference season, it always has a different feel to it even though you are familiar with the opponent’s players, their offensive sets and their defensive strategy,” Roos said. Eastern Michigan enters Saturday’s matchup with a 14-8 overall record and is 4-7 in MAC play. The Eagles have conference wins at home to Kent State and Western Michigan and road wins over Ohio and Kent State. EMU lost at home to Ball State, Akron and Miami and at Northern Illinois, Buffalo, BG and Central Michigan. The Falcons lead the overall series with Eastern Michigan 49-14. BG has won the last 12 meetings, including a 71-57 win over the Eagles earlier this season on Jan. 23 at the Stroh Center. The teams only faced off one time last season where the Falcons won 61-47 in Ypsilanti. The Eagles welcomed back five letterwinners, including three starters, from the 2012-13 season. Last year’s squad finished 8-22 overall and 6-10 in the MAC. Eastern Michigan is top 10 in the nation in both turnover margin and in steals. They also rank 30 in the nation in scoring offense, averaging 78.4 points per game The Falcons will return to the Stroh Center on Wednesday Feb. 19 to face off with conference foe Central Michigan, who handed BG their only conference loss so far this year.

Falcons look to improve on bars By Grant Crawford Reporter

The BG gymnastics team posted its best score in almost a decade last weekend with a 195.550 against 19th-ranked Central Michigan. The Falcons will take the stage again in College Park, Md. this weekend to face both Maryland and Yale in a three-team meet. The Falcons have reached the halfway point of the season with 5-4 overall with a 3-1 record in Mid-American Conference, and a third place standing in the MAC behind Central Michigan and Kent State. “I tell them if they can go 24 for 24 routines solid that is a 196 for us,” said head coach Kerrie Turner. “They know it so it is trying to get them to put it together more than

Track and Field travels to Michigan for GVSU Big Meet this Friday Falcons have 19 players in MAC top 20 list By Jamar Dunson Reporter

The Bowling Green Falcons’ track and field team will be heading to Arrendale, Mich. for the GVSU Big Meet this Friday. This is the second of two very important matches for the team as this will be their last regular meet of the season. It will determine where the Falcons will be positioned going into the Mid-American Conference Indoor championship event. Like the Akron invitational, this will also be a two-day event. Coming off their last event, the Falcons are heading into Friday with a lot of momentum. Players such as Lindsay Kaatz, Brooke Pleger, Dena Gates and Krystin Reiser managed to set new personal best records. They followed suit the following day by setting more personal bests and winning two events. All of attention now lies on the Grand Valley event. “Good, the practices have been good, the team is giving their all,” said head coach Lou Snelling. “They’re doing everything they can for Friday and Saturday.” For Snelling, the team’s main points to focus on are aiming for more automatic qualifying marks and performing well in the team’s primary events. “We all came together this week as a team and the biggest things to work on are the jumps, hurdles and throws, the primary events,” he said. “If we qualify for more automarks, our team will be in a much better position come next week for the MAC championship.” He feels good for these events, particularly the weight throw, where he feels Brooke Pleger will flourish and continue her great comeback

year. “She feels great; she broke her personal record, so that’s fantastic,” Snelling said. He also added that despite not being in many events this year, she’s still ranked on the list. “She hasn’t been in as many events so she’s still getting back into things ... but she ranks fourth in the conference in weight throwing.” One of the other good points on the team is freshman Lindsay Kaatz, who won the mile run at the Akron event. She is currently the third best runner behind Meredith and Durbin but look for her to make an impact at the GVSU. Senior Jeanette Pettigrew is also having an improved season. After being sidelined with a hamstring injury last year, she has rebounded and is having a pretty good season, topping it off with coming second in the preliminaries and third in the finals. Snelling said that he hopes she does well in this event to have a good ending in the regular season. “She’s been doing this for a long time, she’s very experienced and we’re hoping for big things at the event,” he said. The main thing the Falcons, according to Snelling, are looking forward to are getting more automatic qualifying marks and getting more of their players onto the top 20 list. “Our goals are to move up on the conference list, we have about 19 in the top 20 list, so we need just to get on the list to make sure we qualify,” he said. “We also need to hit automarks because they have the biggest impact in the championship. As for performance, we really want to take a big step from last year.” The GVSU Big Meet starts this Friday, Feb. 14 in Allendale, Mich. and is an allday event.

in the 2011-2012 season and top their score from last week. “I think, looking at the scores coming into the meet, we’re favored, we’re ahead of them in the rankings and we have had a higher team score so a lot of our expectations are just building on what we just did the 195.550, and trying to top that every week,” said Turner. With the help of a tough schedule, the Falcons are more than prepared to face a 4-3 Maryland team and a 1-3 Yale team as they continue to get better as the season goes on. “I think going against harder teams it is really good for us to see where the competition is for regionals,” said Amanda Lievendag. “We have to get in the top 36 in the country to qualify so

and I think it is really good for our RQS because when we are against better teams our scores tend to be a lot better.” For two of the Falcons, Katrina Carpenter and Lievendag, they will be in familiar territory as they head back to their home state in Maryland for this week’s competition. “It’s gonna be fun. I am really excited to go back and get to see a lot of people from home so I will have a lot of family there and it will be a really good experience,” said Lievendag. BG looks to remain in the top 36 this weekend to remain in contention for a NCAA regional championship spot. The meet will be Saturday Feb. 15 at 2 p.m. in the Comcast Center.

It’s not like it use to be, not as romantic.” Sophomore Breann Thornberry is maybe part of what Proctor was describing, because even though she has a boyfriend, they don’t make a big deal about Valentine’s Day. “We celebrate it but we don’t go all out,” Breann said. “I ask

him not to spend a lot of money on me. He shows he loves me everyday so we don’t need one special day for it.” Valentine’s Day to Breann seems to be more of a “Hallmark holiday.” “It seems silly,” she said. “It’s just a big holiday about chocolate.” Associate Professor in Popular Culture Jeff Brown said Valentine’s Day comes from our culture’s beliefs. “Some of our fundamental beliefs are things like capitalism

and monogamy,” Brown said. “Having a true love is one of those, whenever you watch a romantic comedy they always have meeting ‘the one’ and living happily ever after.” Brown said getting cards and candy for a significant other has to do with the rituals and marketing around the holiday. “It’s a way to demonstrate your love and to celebrate a relationship publicly,” he said. Proctor also thinks that Valentine’s Day is used for marketing and businesses. “It was created for commercial use like getting candy or going out to eat,” he said. “It’s always a good thing to have somebody to be close with but that could be a number of different people, not just a significant other.”

Planning a Romantic Dinner? Think Downtown BG Flowers, E a Great Option By: STEVON DUEY

These are some dining options that range from budget-friendly to the just plain spoiled in Bowling Green.

College students are often operating on a budget. Sometimes it seems daunting to try and organize and pay for a great night with your significant other and still be able to afford food for the next two weeks. A way to save some cash and still impress is to order a heart-shaped pizza. Students can plan a night in by watching a romantic movie and ordering delivery from Campus Pollyeye’s. If you can resist the stuffed breadsticks, opt for a heart-shaped pizza from Pollyeye’s that tells a special someone your love burns for them as hot as the feeling when you know you should wait to take the first bite, but you do anyway. Pollyeye’s will do heart-shaped pizzas by request. You can call and place an order for a large pizza from Pollyeye’s at (419) 352-9638.

FEWER BILLS

for Valentine’s Day

F

By Stevon Duey lowers can be one of the most romantic gifts significant others can give. The small gesture means a lot to many people but what a lot of people many not realize is the meaning behind what you’re giving. The tradition of assigning meaning to flowers came about during the Elizabethan era. Expressions of outward emotions were restricted by society during the time and flowers became a way to communicate specific thoughts and feelings based on the color and beauty of the flowers being given. The red rose is the most iconic flower that conveys love and romance. A bouquet of red roses is the most popular Valentine’s Day gift ordered from many florists. Carnations are another popular choice as a gift on

Valentine’s Day. Carnations are a perfect way to convey admiration and love without coming on too strong. Many people opt to give carnations as a budget-friendly alternative to roses since they also carry strong meaning. And the underdog for Valentine’s Day is the tulip. Many people opt to give carnations and roses because they are the most conventional, but the tulip is also a beautiful flower that comes in many colors. The red tulip conveys the message of true love. Gene Klotz, fourthgeneration owner of Klotz Floral Design and Garden prefers tulips to standard roses. Klotz Floral Design and Garden is gearing up for the busiest week of the year for florists across the world. Klotz estimates 300 delivery orders for Valentine’s Day in Bowling Green on top of the constant pickup

and walk-in orders they also receive. Klotz’s thrives as one of only two florists in Bowling Green so customers should be sure to place their orders early. Klotz will continue to take orders for delivery and pickup for Valentine’s Day through the holiday. He warns that customers should place their orders sooner than later. Unpredictable weather conditions may stall flower shipments and flower deliveries. Klotz offers a special of a dozen roses for $39.99 and is the place to go in Bowling Green for both exceptional quality and service. Customers can order pre-made arrangements or build their own bouquets and vases by visiting the Klotz Floral Design and Garden website at www. klotzfloral.com or by calling at (419) 353-8381.

The board reorganized in September, said Linda Schwartz, co-chair of Alicia’s Voice. “[What we’re] focusing on now is education,” Schwartz said. “We’re hoping to serve them more but in a different capacity.” Alicia’s Voice is now hoping to offer victims a longer-term solution, she said. “We’re trying to empower them to make good choices,” Schwartz said. One way the organization is hoping to do that is by hosting a women’s empowerment group that will meet once a month and discuss traits of an abuser and how to stay out of an abusive relationship. “A lot of the women

We’ll keep doing this and hopefully something will click.” Alicia’s Voice can also provide money for car payments, deposits on apartments, gas cards, bus tickets, money to go to job training programs and more. Immediately after a woman leaves her abuser, the organization offers supplies “everybody needs that you can’t buy with food stamps,” Newlove said. Amy Urbanowicz, 31, of Millbury, Ohio, has benefitted from the supplies Alicia’s Voice offers. After her abusive husband left, Alicia’s Voice supplied her and her family with common household items like toothpaste and toilet paper. In August, he constantly called her and wouldn’t leave her alone. Ten complaints of telephone harassment were reported against
