A light into the past By Andy Ouriel Senior Reporter
Forty-nine candles represented the 12 million Holocaust victims during a candlelight ceremony at the Union Oval Tuesday night. Students were observing April 11’s Yom Hashoah, translated to National Day of Remembrance from the Hebrew language. Students lit candles, prayed and read a list of 5,000 names of those who died in concentration camps from 1939-45. Ashley Berman, vice president of religion and education for Hillel, said students need to be aware of the tragedies affecting the world’s history and try to prevent genocide from occurring today. “I think that as Americans and as University students, sometimes we forget that things like this are possible and it’s very, very important to never forget the Holocaust,” she said. Freshman Morgan Levin said the event reminded her of when she observed the day at her Jewish center in Akron. With messages of “light a candle” and “read a name” written on the ground, Levin said events like these help interest people in history. “I want to get it out there [that the Holocaust] happened and it’s something we don’t want to happen again,” Levin said. FreshmanSophieGoldenberg was one of several mourners reading the names on a list provided by the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum. With her Star of David necklace visible, Goldenberg was reminded of how tragic the killing of both Jews and non-Jews was during the Nazi regime in Germany. She said she appreciates the University and Hillel hosting the event to make the entire campus aware of one of the world’s most tragic events. “Everyone’s reading sepaANDREA FEHL | THE BG NEWS rately to show how overwhelming the amount of people that LIGHT: Freshman Morgan Levin blows out a candle in remembrance of the 12 million Holocaust victims during a candlelight vigil in the Union died was,” Goldenberg said.

HONOR: Lieutenant Colonel Robert V. Huckleberry enjoys cake while mingling with well-wishers at his retirement celebration on Tuesday. Huckleberry has worked at the University’s Aerospace division for 26 years.
University Air Force ROTC honors retirement of Lieutenant Colonel By Max Filby Reporter
The Air Force ROTC program honored retiring Lieutenant Colonel Robert V. Huckleberry Tuesday at 5:30 p.m. at the conclusion of their leadership lab. Huckleberry has been a commander in the Aerospace division at the University for 26 years, said Colonel Cheryl Schramm. “Over the past 27 years, Lt. Col. Huckleberry and his family have made sacrifices for us,” Schramm said, “and after he is relieved he will be entering the community.” Captain David Chilson who has worked with Huckleberry at the University spoke about Huckleberry’s influence on students and faculty from the day he started at the University. “I remember how Lt. Col. Huckleberry’s smile and attitude radiated when he first arrived here, as it still does today,” Chilson said. “He is a leader, mentor and a role model to us all.” The ceremony began as Huckleberry’s wife, Susan, and daughters, Michelle and Lauren, were escorted to their seats by ROTC students. Chilson and Huckleberry followed behind his family where they were seated at the front of the room. Schramm opened the ceremony with the pledge of allegiance and then reviewed Huckleberry’s involvement in the Air Force. Huckleberry began in the Air Force in 1983 and will be
officially relieved in October of this year. Huckleberry was among the most elite people in aerospace, Chilson said during a speech at the ceremony. The ceremony continued as Schramm and Chilson awarded Huckleberry with a certificate of his official retirement come October, signed by President Barack Obama. Huckleberry was also given a portrait of Memorial Hall where the University’s ROTC offices are located. Susan Huckleberry was also awarded a certificate for her contributions and commitment to her husband’s involvement in the Air Force, Schramm said. Huckleberry then surprised his wife and daughters with bouquets of flowers before he took the floor to speak. In his speech, Huckleberry acknowledged his colleagues and all of the students in the leadership lab. “I promise when you leave here you will all be prepared,” Huckleberry said to the students. “The best thing you can learn to do is to be the expert in your field.” The ceremony concluded with a social gathering in the back of the room where the students and faculty enjoyed cake while reminiscing about experiences with Huckleberry. “He was really helpful and kindhearted,” said freshman David Harless. “He was always willing to put us before himself.”

It’s a waste of time.’� The College Republicans were contacted for comment, but did not respond to phone calls. Last fall, Zickar said the College Democrats marched in front of Rep. Bob Latta’s (R) office for the passing of the health care reform. A Tea Party protest also occurred in the Union oval April 17. But while political and social

McVey, a member of a volunteer group that helps police and firefighters, stopped to see if a couple who had pulled to the side of the road needed help, according to the report. After a man at the scene refused to respond, McVey went back to his car, retrieved a .40-caliber handgun and placed it in his holster so that it was visible, the report said. He walked back to the car, where the man was talking to the woman through her window, the report said.

their money situation.� Others, like junior Zac Falls, said the location of the University doesn’t expose students to enough national problems. “Why would we make someone else’s issues our problem?� Falls said. “Students aren’t going to go out of their way to protest something that doesn’t concern them, especially because we’re in Bowling Green, Ohio,
“I asked if there had been a wreck or what had happened. He swore at me and came towards me,� the report quotes McVey as saying. McVey said he stepped back, called a dispatcher on the radio, explained the situation and was told he could go. Shortly after McVey left the scene, sheriff’s deputies pulled him over at gunpoint until the situation could be sorted out, the report said. McVey was not arrested but was lectured on the proper way to handle a gun in a car, according to the report. Rogers said Tuesday it was the deputies’ choice not to arrest him. not Washington D.C.� On the November 2010 ballot, students will be able to voice their opinions on a nondiscrimination ordinance that would include sexual orientation and veteran status within housing and employment. Conservatives have instated a referendum to over-turn the city’s bill to make the ordinance illegal. “If the referendum passes, it would still be legal in Bowling Green to discriminate on those categories,� Zickar said. “Students should show a concern for this issue, particularly because of rental concerns and sexual preference. The notion of being a college student is standing up for your beliefs regardless of repercussions.�

Sorority offers cultural bonds, family atmosphere

By Angela Green Reporter
When junior Jadie Maldonado first came to the University, she was not sure she wanted to be a part of Greek life. Maldonado was the only person from her high school to come to the University, and she wanted a group of friends separate from her boyfriend’s. Then she saw members of the sorority Sigma Lambda Gamma at a Latino Student Union event. “There was something about them that I really liked,� Maldonado said. “They seemed down to earth and funny. I wanted to be a part of what they were doing.� Maldonado is now the chapter’s president of the Latinabased multicultural sorority. There are only nine members in the University’s chapter, and next year only four will be left. Maldonado said the sorority is not like others. “We’re different, fun, loud and outgoing,� she said. “We’re just a group of women that love being together. The girls that become members are girls who never saw themselves in a sorority.� Senior Maria Rivera said she joined partly because of the Hispanic aspect; she wanted to be surrounded by people who knew about her culture. “I’m willing to learn about them if they’re willing to learn about me,� Rivera said. Because there are so few members, the women in the sorority get to know each other well. “We’re a family,� Rivera said. “We act like family, eat like family, argue like family. I feel like I have no other friends now. I’m always with one of my sisters.� Most of the family time takes place at the sorority’s house, 703 East Reed St., between Lots 7 and 8.

STUDY: President of Sigma Lamda Gamma junior Jadie Maldonado plans out her week in her sorority’s living room on Tuesday afternoon.
Of the 92 chapters nationwide, the University’s chapter is the only to have its own house. “We’re the only ones that made a big fuss about it and Greek Affairs gave us what we wanted,� Maldonado said. Only the president and one other member live in the house. “We like it here,� Maldonado said. “It’s not like the other big, fancy houses and it’s not like the dorms. It’s really comfortable to just hang out and do homework and it’s close enough to campus.� She said the University gave members the option to live in Founders during construction of the new residence hall, but they will tolerate the construction to stay in the house. Sophomore Amanda Eberhardt, the newest member of the sorority, was initiated on April 17. She said she loves the house. “I go there a lot,� she said. “It’s a refuge and our chill-out spot. I’m so proud of the house. It has a lot of history, but it’s home.� Because there are so few in the sorority, members are looking to recruit. Maldonado said they do not hold a formal recruitment. If

someone is interested they go through an interview and eightweek new-member-education process. She said any female can join as long as she meets the requirements, which include maintaining a 2.75 GPA and knowing all the active members. She also must believe in the sorority’s principles, which are academics, community service, cultural awareness, social interaction and morals and ethics. For community service, members volunteer for the Office of Multicultural Affairs and do different events with the Latino Student Union. Members also hold their own events, hosting panels, ice cream socials, cook outs and an annual pink-out volleyball game in conjunction with the athletic department for breast cancer awareness. Eberhardt said there is a mix between business and fun. “The business aspect is running the chapter and planning the big events and community service,� she said. “It’s business with a lot of hard work, but at the end of the day you’re laughing.�

Feminists are not necessarily all bra-burning, man-hating hippies KATE NOFTSINGER COLUMNIST
And now I’d like to talk a little bit about the F-word. For whatever reason, people are still unsure about feminism. It’s frightening. It’s too controversial. It’s unattractive. It’s too hard to spell. But what is it in particular that makes everyone so uncomfortable? I’m convinced it is fear of the unknown. Only a feminist can accurately define feminism. Seriously. If you can articulate it, you’re probably all about it. And this isn’t because we’re some exclusive group with a special handshake that only shares the secret once we’re certain you’re one of us. The answer is right there in the dictionary. It’s mostly common sense stuff and pretty hard to argue with. This is why I assume if you’ve taken the time to be informed, you’ve probably already crossed over into feminist territory. I just can’t see how any logical person could possibly be opposed to the political, social and economic equality of women. If you’re unsure, try these opinions on for size and see how comfortable you would be expressing them in public: Women should not vote. Girls should not play sports. Ladies should not have paying jobs. Pretty ridiculous, right? Twice this year, the BG News has prompted students in the People on the Street question to articulate their interpretation of feminism. On Wednesday, Jan. 20, the “people” were asked, “What does feminism mean to you?” Their answers deserve to be revisited.
“Bake sale.” This, I take full responsibility for, so I will explain. As a member of the Organization for Women’s Issues, I have participated in two bake sales this year. While pushing baked goods in the name of feminism seems contradictory, it happens to be very lucrative. Which is why it happened twice. And for the record, I made the lemon squares. “Things that girls do and believe in.” Um, sure. Except men can be feminists, too. Men should care about women’s issues. If women made the same amount of money as men, they could pay for their own drinks. “Women’s rights.” Absolutely. “An excuse to go braless.” Not so much. We revised the dress code and decided this is no longer necessary. And who needs an excuse? “Women who want to have more independence and equality.” Exactly. I couldn’t have said it better myself. Then, on Thursday, March 25, the “people” let their voices be heard again. This time they were asked, “What is the first thing that comes to mind when you hear the word feminism?” I’m not sure if it was because of the way it was phrased or the alignment of the stars that day, but this question somehow provoked even better answers. Here is the second batch of responses. “Radical.” That depends. If feminism is the radical notion that women are people, then yes. “Hippie.” No way. Get your stereotypes straight. Feminists are militant and aggressive. That’s why we all wear combat boots. You can hear the revolution coming because we march in unison. It’s pretty impressive. “Bake sale in front of the Union.” Yeah. That’s OWN again. And we appreciate your business. “Empowered.” Of course.
And last, but certainly not least, my very favorite reaction to the feminist word association game, worthy of a drum roll followed by a gong. It’s both typical and predictable, the one we’ve all been waiting for… “Bitch.” Ah, but you are correct, sir, and let me tell you why. A bitch is a difficult woman. According to Margaret Cho, one of my favorite bitches, a bitch is assertive, unapologetic, demanding, intimidating, intelligent, fiercely protective and in control. That’s why one of the best feminist magazines around is called Bitch. Who’s usually a bitch? The chick that’s not interested in you. The girl that got a higher grade than you. The woman manager that tells you what to do. And don’t forget the female journalist that calls you out. That’s right, Matt Ralston. We’re all a bunch of bitches. The word has been reclaimed. It functions more like a compliment. Thanks for recognizing feminists are women who dare to be dominant. We don’t shy away from confrontation. We’ll get in your face. And we don’t back down. Also, I couldn’t help notice your freshman class standing next to your glistening pearl of wisdom. Good. You’ve still got plenty of time to take a women’s studies class. It’ll be a great environment to use your empowerment rhetoric and I’m certain you’ll find yourself surrounded by bitches who share your very progressive perspective. So, I guess this was more about the B-word than the Fword. Oh well. I guess sometimes bitches lie. Respond to Kate at thenews@bgnews.com
Government and religion don’t mix By Patrick Levy, The Daily Cougar (University of Houston) The College News Network
Judeo-Christian values have affected America’s foundation; a large percentage of the American population has adopted a belief in God. Yet, the concepts of religious freedom and the separation of church and state remain hotly contested issues. U.S. District Judge Barbara Crabb of Madison, Wis., ruled April 15 that the National Day of Prayer was unconstitutional, given the fact that it explicitly calls for engagement in some type of religious activity.
President Barack Obama said he planned to appeal the decision through the Justice Department. The issue here isn’t someone taking a position fundamentally against religion, but that the church should remain separate from the state in America. The district court was justified in its decision that a national holiday advocating religious activity was unlawful. Those who say such a concept is absent within the Constitution need only look to the First Amendment, which says, “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free
exercise thereof.” Conservatives who are advocates of the National Day of Prayer should abandon such a hypocritical stance. Despite calling for limited government in certain aspects, religion is the one thing in which they continue to support government involvement. Having a National Day of Prayer only makes people who aren’t believers feel like outsiders; any time the government takes a position on a religious issue should be cause for alarm. When the government begins to promote one particular religion, however, it only opens the door further to the slippery slope of legislating morality.

Polls may actually influence public opinion, not reflect it By Samuel Lustgarten, The Rocky Mountain Collegian (Colorado State) The College News Network
Reading over my comments from earlier columns, it’s clear that there’s a dependency on polls to explain this country’s vast opinion. The polls have infiltrated America’s voting minds. Instead of truly grasping concepts, an illiterate voting body has formed — and no, I’m not insulting Tea Partiers. Truly conceptualizing politics is difficult. Pollsters have stepped in to fill the void. They’re doctoring public opinion. The average American has little time or interest for politics. Inherently, that naiveté leads to a reliance on polls. The brilliance of the plutocracy is in controlling the masses. We’re pawns for our employers –– a full-time job traps the worker in 40-plus hour weeks. Come home, and whatever leftover energy you have quickly evaporates. The “extra” time is spent caring for kids, cleaning, bills and other stuff. Meanwhile, a quick glance at your local paper or online bombards you with senseless numbers, like they represent your opinion. A poll number shouldn’t influence you or make you vote one way or another. The dead peasant laborer knows what help they need and what would benefit their family most. The travesty is that families aren’t voting for what they need. The trust in polls and politicians is leading to a stratified schema that is leading to a dichotomous –– yes or no –– country. Fortunately, there is a gray area. The world doesn’t operate in black and whites, and it’s illusory to believe otherwise. The exploitation of citizens by pollsters must be examined. Right-wing conservative pollster
Frank Luntz is famous for fashioning loaded poll questions. In fact, Republicans often credit Luntz for his ability to persuade average people not to vote for their needs. A hypothetical question: “Is Obama’s government mandated health insurance a step toward socialism?” Poll after poll showed respondents that were terrified and overwhelmingly said yes. Unfortunately, the preceding question along with many others has an inherent bias. Those questions incite a worry –– the government mandate. Try separating the individual changes present in our current health bill. “Do you believe preexisting conditions should prevent Americans from receiving health insurance?” No. “Do you think Americans should pay exorbitant out-ofpocket expenses?” No. “Do you (students) want to renounce your parents’ coverage before 26?” No. “Do you want to be discriminated against because you’re a woman?” No. “Would you like an annual cap or lifetime coverage
limit to the amount of treatment you can receive?” No. All of the former questions were solved with the passing of the health bill. Nonetheless, propagandist polling is continuous. You’ll read things like, “Should illegal immigrants qualify for coverage under Obama’s health plan?” No. “Do you want to have a choice of health coverage?” Yes. “Should health care cost more under Obama’s plan?” No. Then, the ultimate conclusion is that those polled aren’t really reading and don’t know enough about the bill in the first place to make these judgments. And why should they? They aren’t doing this for a living and have better things to worry about –– like putting food on the table. How many are polled? What’s their education level? These questions are never divulged for the confidentiality and sanctity of the partisan message. ONLINE: Read the rest of this article online at bgnews.com

DOD, Senate at loggerheads on Fort Hood case
AP Source: No tax hit for covering 20-yr-olds
Senate panel focuses on mine safety problems
McCain: Arizona had to crack down on immigration
WASHINGTON — The Pentagon said it will provide some but not all of the materials a Senate committee wants on last year’s Fort Hood shooting rampage, setting up a potential legal showdown with Congress. The Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee had demanded that the Pentagon share specific documents and witnesses about the deadly incident by Tuesday morning. Senators have said they want to be sure the Pentagon is working to prevent another such incident. An unusual Senate subpoena asked for material the Pentagon claims would jeopardize prosecution of the suspect, Major Nidal Hasan. Committee spokeswoman Leslie Phillips said that “as far as we’re concerned they have not complied with the subpoena.” She said the panel is considering its next step. Anne Flaherty and Anne Gearan (AP)
WASHINGTON — The Obama administration is removing a roadblock for employers hesitating about immediately extending health care benefits to employees’ kids in their twenties. A senior administration official told The Associated Press that the Treasury Department will issue a clarification Tuesday reassuring employers that neither they nor their workers will face a tax hit if companies extend benefits immediately. The new health care law allows young adults to stay on their parents’ coverage until they turn 26 — one of the most anticipated benefits. But some employers may not offer the benefit until next year. By addressing employers’ tax concern, the administration is nudging them to move now. Ricardo Alonso-Zaldivar (AP)
WASHINGTON — Senators are focusing on how they can improve mine safety laws as they hold their first hearing on this month’s mining disaster in West Virginia. The hearing Tuesday in the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee will examine provisions in the law through which mine operators can challenge safety violations and delay penalties. Massey Energy Chief Executive Don Blankenship won’t be at the hearing to discuss the accident at the Upper Big Branch mine his company owns. An explosion at the mine April 5 killed 29 workers. The hearing will not focus on the specific cause of the blast. Senators also will consider how to improve safety compliance in other industries. Sam Hananel (AP)
WASHINGTON (AP) — Sen. John McCain said Arizona had to pass a tough immigration law because the Obama administration has failed to “secure our borders.” The Arizona Republican called the situation in his state “the worst I’ve ever seen,” saying ineffective border enforcement has resulted in drugs pouring into the southwestern United States from Mexico. McCain told CBS’s “The Early Show” that over a million pounds of marijuana were intercepted on the border at Tucson just in the last year. He said he has talked to law enforcement officials and believes the new law can be implemented “without racial profiling.” Under the law set to take effect in late July or August, it would be a crime to be in the United States illegally.
Unemployment rate challenges Obama’s economic narrative WASHINGTON (AP) — Even as he touts his efforts to put more Americans to work, President Barack Obama faces a public increasingly skeptical of his ability to bring jobs back to Main Street. During stops in Iowa, Illinois and Missouri, Obama will try to convince voters that his economic policies are working, despite an unemployment rate that’s expected to remain at painfully high levels for months if not years. Those voters - many of them crucial independents - will be key to Obama’s re-election prospects in 2012. And his fellow Democrats, facing a tough political climate in the November, need their support even sooner. “The bottom line is that the Democrats are almost certain to be campaigning in economic circumstances that will not be politically favorable,”
said William Galston, a former domestic policy aide in Bill Clinton’s White House and now a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution. The latest economic forecasts do show signs of progress: The nation added jobs at the fastest pace in three years last month; the manufacturing industry is growing at a steady pace; and new claims for jobless benefits have declined. But the unemployment rate - it may be the most recognizable economic indicator - has held steady at 9.7 percent for the past three months, and 15 million Americans remain out of work. By the White House’s own estimates, as well as those of many independent economists, that rate isn’t expected to fluctuate more than a few tenths of a percent through the end of 2010. The president’s home state of Illinois, where he’ll travel
“The bottom line is that the Democrats are almost certain to be campaigning in economic circumstances that will not be politically favorable.” William Galston | Former domestic policy aide Wednesday, has one of the nation’s highest unemployment rates, 11.5 percent. That’s a far different reality than what the administration predicted last year, when Obama rallied support for the $787 billion economic stimulus package. At the time, the White House said the massive infusion of taxpayer funds would keep the unemployment rate from topping 8 percent, though the administration later revised those estimates, saying the recession proved to be worse than it expected. Though the administra-
tion wasn’t alone in underestimating the impact of the downturn - many independent economists had similar initial forecasts - Republicans see an opening to attack the administration’s handling of the economic crisis. “The unemployment rate is a far cry from where President Obama and the Democrats said it would be,” said Ken Spain, communications director for the National Republican Congressional Committee. “We’re constantly going to remind voters that they promised.”

Former top diplomats write letter defending foreign affairs budget Letter stresses that an increase in the budget will support US ideas of global leadership, safety By Matthew Lee The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — One issue that unites all secretaries of state of either party is maintaining a strong U.S. profile in world affairs. All eight living secretaries of state have reaffirmed this, signing a joint letter urging Congress not to slash President Barack Obama’s proposed $58.5 billion foreign affairs budget. They called the request critical to America’s security and global presence. The letter was sent to the Hill after the Senate Budget Committee stripped $4 billion from the spending plan last week. The former top diplomats from Democratic and Republican administrations dating to 1973 argued that full
funding of the spending plan is essential. “Increasing the investment in our civilian international capabilities will keep America safer by, among other things, addressing the root causes of terrorism and extremism, supporting key allies, and demonstrating America’s proud tradition of global leadership,” they wrote. “We urge you to support the funding level proposed by President Barack Obama for the International Affairs Budget and to oppose any effort to cut that request,” the letter said. “This is one area where Democrats and Republicans can agree and should come together to help ensure a more secure and prosperous future for our nation.”

Man sought after death of ‘Cathouse’ star arrested
125 mph winds in Nevada hamper travel, cut power
Malcolm X assassin is freed on parole in NYC
California city tries to shut down pot-on-wheels
Jurors deliberate six hours in Palin e-mail case
TULSA, Okla. (AP) — A man sought since several bodies were found inside a burned house in Oklahoma City — including a prostitute featured in the HBO reality series “Cathouse� — has been arrested. Tulsa police said 32-year-old Denny Edward Phillips was shot three times Monday when he pointed a gun at officers. Authorities said he had been an early person of interest in the Oklahoma City deaths and was also wanted in the burglary of a Tulsa police detective’s home. The Oklahoma County prosecutor says Phillips has been sought since four people, including two pregnant women, were found dead Nov. 9 inside the burned home. The victims included Brooke Phillips, a prostitute at the Moonlite BunnyRanch in Nevada who was featured in the HBO show. It was not immediately clear when Phillips might appear in court or if he had an attorney.
RENO, Nev. (AP) — Winds gusting in excess of 100 mph have downed power lines in northern Nevada, causing power outages for thousands of residents in Reno and wreaking havoc with travel. The California Highway Patrol closed a stretch of westbound Interstate 80 north of Lake Tahoe Tuesday morning after wind flipped a truck on its side. The National Weather Service says winds topped the 125 mph mark at the Mount Rose Ski Resort between Reno and Tahoe. About 2,500 people are without power in the Reno area. Sustained winds of 63 mph were recorded at Reno-Tahoe International Airport, where several flights have been canceled or delayed. A gust of 107 mph was recorded just south of town on U.S. Highway 395.
NEW YORK — The only man to admit shooting Malcolm X has been freed on parole, 45 years after he helped assassinate the civil rights leader in New York City. State Department of Correctional Services spokeswoman Linda Foglia said Thomas Hagan was freed Tuesday. He had spent two days a week at a Manhattan prison under a workrelease program. The 69-year-old Hagan was the last man still serving time in the 1965 killing. He and two others were convicted of murder. Hagan said he was one of three gunmen who shot Malcolm X at Harlem’s Audubon Ballroom. But he says the two men who were convicted with him were not involved. They maintained their innocence and were paroled in the 1980s. Jennifer Peltz (AP)
NORCO, Calif. (AP) — A rolling marijuana dispensary has hit a bump in the road in California’s Riverside County. The city of Norco wants to shut down the Lakeview Collective-onWheels, a motor home that has been selling $10 pot cookies and other items outside a clinic. Co-owner Stewart Hauptman said most clients are elderly people with pot prescriptions. Authorities contend he has attracted young stoners since opening seven months ago. A 1996 voter initiative legalized marijuana for medical use in California, but court battles are being fought about whether cities can ban distribution. Norco bars marijuana dispensaries, and Hauptman has been cited several times. His mobile dispensary is closed pending a June 1 court hearing — but he’s still making home deliveries.
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — A federal jury has deliberated six hours without reaching a verdict in the case against a former University of Tennessee student charged with hacking into Sarah Palin’s e-mail. The jury of eight men and six women started deliberating in Knoxville Tuesday morning, then adjourned for the day around 4:45 p.m. EDT in the case against 22-yearold David Kernell. They will return Wednesday. He is charged with identity theft, wire fraud, aiding and abetting computer fraud and obstruction of justice. Kernell faces up to 50 years in prison if convicted of all charges. He is accused of hacking into the then-Alaska governor’s e-mail while she was the Republican vice presidential candidate in 2008. Palin and her daughter Bristol testified. Bill Poovey (AP)
Rhode Island man admits killing parents, burying bodies PROVIDENCE, R.I. — A Rhode Island man has pleaded guilty to bludgeoning his parents and putting the bodies in their backyard cesspool. The plea Tuesday from James Soares (SORZ) Jr. came as jury selection was scheduled to begin in his murder trial in Providence. Soares was arrested on July 27, 2008, after the bodies of his parents were removed from the in-ground cesspool of their home in Warren. They had been reported missing two weeks earlier after failing to show up for a family gettogether. Prosecutors say Soares and his girlfriend used the couple’s credit cards to go on a shopping spree. He faces consecutive life sentences. Judge Francis Darigan scheduled sentencing for July 23. Eric Tucker (AP)

The Oklahoma Senate’s override votes on both measures were 36-12, the minimum support of three-quarters of the 48-member Senate that was required. Henry had vetoed similar legislation in 2008, and was also overridden by lawmakers.

When Paige Berger steps into the batter’s box today against Notre Dame, she could very well be stepping into the BG record books. A freshman on the softball team, Berger is sitting on 11 home runs and is tied with current assistant coach Hayley Wiemer for most home runs hit in a single season by a Falcon. Berger, a native of Rootstown, Ohio, didn’t enter her first season with many expectations, but as soon as she stepped onto the field, the rest was history. “I didn’t really know what my role on the team
was, but as soon as we got to go and start playing, coach [Shannon Salsburg] really helped me find what I was supposed to do as a member of this team,” Berger said. And what she does is produce. Berger has played and started in all of the team’s 30 games thus far and leads the Falcons in nearly every offensive category, including batting average (.351), slugging percentage (.851), on-base percentage (.455), RBIs (25) and total bases (63). She is tied for first on the team in runs scored (17) and is second in hits (26), doubles (4) and walks (14). Although she is a freshman, her numbers
“It’s great, she helps us out a lot, especially with hitting. She helps me whenever I need it.” Paige Berger | Infielder don’t come as a shock to Salsburg, who had been waiting for Berger for the past two years to get into a Falcon uniform. “A kid like Paige is special. I’ve watched her hit home runs since she was 12,” Salsburg said. “When

The List With Paige Berger on the brink of breaking the school record for most home runs in a single season, we take a look at her top home run performances of the season. 1. Feb. 19: In a loss to Georgia, Berger went 1-for-2 at the plate, including her first home run as a Falcon. 2. Feb. 20: One day after hitting her first homer of her collegiate career, Berger smashed two more in a losing effort against Winthrop. 3. April 11: Playing in her first series of the battle of I-75, Berger connected with a home run in her second game against Toledo as BG won 9-1. 4. April 16: The Falcons had just four hits against Western Michigan in a 3-1 loss, with Berger supplying BG’s lone run. 5. April 23: In a doubleheader at Ball State, Berger hit a home run in each game.

SWING: Jon Berti takes a cut in a game earlier this season. Berti was named the MAC East Player of the Week.
BASEBALL From Page 7 Division player of the week, Jon Berti has been swinging a hot bat for the Falcons. Last week, he was 11-22, hitting two of his three homers, while driving in eight runs and scoring 11. He also stole four bases. While the Falcons are 8-1 since their meeting with Cleveland State, the Vikings are going in
the opposite direction, going 1-8 since the teams last met. They have allowed 75 runs in those nine games, while scoring only 40 runs. Overall on the season, they are 9-28, with a 4-8 mark at home. While only hitting .263 as a team, they do have several dangerous hitters. Tyler Wy nn a nd Bob Suitca both have eight homers on the year and are hitting over .300.
Kyle Schaffer leads the team with a .357 average, while contributing six home runs. Their pitching has struggled, with a 8.61 team earned-run average. They also walk nearly as many hitters as they strike out. The only pitcher on the staff with an ERA under 6.75 is ace Anthony Sambula, who the Falcons will likely not face today. First pitch is scheduled for 4 p.m.

You have a voice. Even if the administration doesn’t want to hear it. Here’s the funny thing about unionization. The BGSU administration could have offered an alternative. What if they had solicited our opinions, rather than mocking our efforts? What if they had made an effort on their own to address compensation and shared governance concerns? The hundreds of faculty members who support the BGSU Faculty Association have earned the right to call an election on collective bargaining. Congratulations, colleagues—our time is almost here.

OUT: Paige Berger prepares to receive the ball at first base in a game against Central Michigan earlier this season.
BERGER From Page 7 she was little she was hitting them against the big girls. She’s just a natural hitter and she understands how to lift the ball and luckily people keep pitching to her.” If Berger keeps this up, however, it won’t be long until pitchers start to be more careful with her — much like they were with Wiemer, who ended her college career first on BG’s all-time walks list with 121. Now a coach, Wiemer is watching a record she set unfold before her eyes, and she couldn’t be more happy for Berger as she vows to break it. “Records are made to be broken, so I know it’s going to happen soon. As long as they keep throwing to her it’s going to happen,” Wiemer said. “I had my time and it’s her time. She’s earned it and she’s worked hard for it.”
“A kid like Paige is special. I’ve watched her hit home runs since she was 12. When she was little she was hitting them against the big girls.” Shannon Salsburg | BG coach As for Berger, who is experiencing her first season with Wiemer, she is grateful for the time she gets to spend with the former star softball player. “It’s great, she helps us out a lot, especially with hitting,” Berger said. “She helps me whenever I need it.” With 12 regular season games remaining, Berger is well ahead of the pace to break the singleseason home run record and set and even higher mark. However, the freshman isn’t worried about the record. In fact, she didn’t even know what the record was and said she wasn’t expecting to break it. “I really wasn’t expecting to,”
Berger said. “I didn’t even know what the actual record was. I don’t really talk about it too much. If it happens it happens, if it doesn’t it doesn’t.” W hile Berger may not talk about the record, that doesn’t mean the rest of her team doesn’t “We’ve actually just been giving Hayley a hard time about it,” Salsburg said with a laugh. “[Berger] knows it, but she also understands that her job is to hit long fly balls, so it doesn’t stress her out to have that out there. That’s just another fun thing that I think she will absolutely accomplish by the end of the year.”
