SGA appoints executive postions BY TRAVIS CRUM STAFF WRITER

West Virginia University Student Government Association appointed 20 executives at its Wednesday meeting after 30 minutes of deliberation. Members of the Board of Governors discussed appointments to new positions, such as director of the arts, director of diversity and City Council liaison. Candidates were given an opportunity to state goals if given

an executive position, and some cited previous SGA involvement or talked about work with other student organizations. Some governors questioned Tasha Frazie, a candidate for SGA elections chair, and her ability to maintain the position for her actions during campaigning. “I was a little disappointed in Miss Frazie’s actions during the campaign,” said Gov. Jason Bailey. “I just want to know when she handles things like this, that

she does it in the capacity of an official elections chair.” Frazie had previously removed SGA campaigners from Towers where he served as a resident assistant, said SGA Vice President Ron Cheng after the meeting. “Many people think that was unfair, but she was realistically just doing her job – maybe too well,” he said. Cheng defended Frazie during the discussion by saying she will act as a “bulldog,” being ag-

gressive and holding everyone accountable during election time. Frazie, a former member of the PIRATE Party, defended against the allegations by saying her first priority was to the residents of her hall and doing her job. The need for the additional executive positions was brought up by former SGA Outreach Director Erin Graziani. Graziani

Danielle Steele, junior crimonology major, sprays WVU police oﬃcer Bobby Maldonado with a mock pepper spray substance during the ‘Mace A Criminal Expertly’ event outside the Mountainlair Wednesday afternoon. MACE was sponsored by WVU Women Against Rape and was held in recognition of Sexual Assault Awareness Month. Female students were shown how to properly use pepper spray and could, practice, on a WVU police oﬃcer.

Students learn to use pepper spray eﬀectively BY JOSH COOPER STAFF WRITER

Students sprayed West Virginia University Police Officers in the face with deactivated pepper spray Wednesday as part of WVU’s Women Against Rape’s recognition of Sexual Assault Awareness Month. The event “Mace a Criminal Expertly” was held Wednesday outside the Mountainlair. Passersby were invited to participate in the demonstration. “I’ve had mace for about three years, but I never knew how to properly use it,” said Tasha Frazie, vice president of WAR. “This demonstration clarified its use. It is impor-

tant to understand how to effectively use it in case the situation ever arises.” University Police Department Officer Bobby Maldonado volunteered to be sprayed by approximately 25 participants. Each sprayed him two or three times. Maldonado believes pepper spray is an effective tool in preventing violent crimes such as rape. “I’ve been hit with it three times,” Maldonado said. “It’s probably the worst pain I’ve felt in my life.” Lt. Brian Hoxter of the UPD provided information on the use

Blair Lord stood in the middle of the Mountainlair at West Virginia University Wednesday, reading a seemingly endless list of names aloud, complete with their age and year of death. She read the names of infants, the elderly and a other ages in between. Some had only a known last name, others were obviously grouped into families. All died in locations across Europe. But all the individuals whose names were being read had one thing in common: They died in the Holocaust.

Lord, president of WVU Hillel, was the last of around 50 people who, for 24 hours straight, read names of those who perished in the Holocaust. Only a fraction of the 6 million victims of the Holocaust were covered in those 24 hours, from noon Tuesday to noon Wednesday. “If we were to do this every year, it would take 400 years to read the names of all the people who died,” Lord said. Those who organized and participated in the event feel it is important to remember the impact the genocide has had throughout history – and not only the

4th B&E dean Osborn candidate visits campus BY TRAVIS CRUM STAFF WRITER

The fourth of seven candidates for the position of dean of the College of Business & Economics, Jack Osborn, visited West Virginia University Wednesday. Osborn spoke to 26 members of the B&E community in a session aimed at staff concerns. Increasing student placement abroad and strengthening the curriculum topped the list of changes Osborn would implement as dean. “We need to build on what you already have – you don’t need a big strategic planning meeting,” Osborn said. “We just need to create opportunities for undergraduate and graduate students to have a true international experience by involving them with major corporations globally.” Creating a degree program in international business is something WVU is lacking, Osborn said. Other schools have an edge on international business because they already have developed programs, he said. Gary Insch, associate professor of management, said he

Whether you are of European ancestry, Asian ancestry, New World Ancestry and regardless of your race, there is a chance that one of your ancestors was a survivor of genocide,” said Neal Newfield, an associate professor in the Division of Social Work, whose remarks closed the program. Newfield also noted Jews were not the only group affected by the Holocaust. Poles, Soviets, homosexuals, Jehovah’s Wit-

nesses and people with disabilities, among other political and religious opponents of the Nazi regime, were also killed. Lord said it is especially important to promote the diversity of those affected by the Holocaust at WVU, where there is a relatively small Jewish community. “Though we’re not tiny, I think we’re a dedicated community,” she said, noting the various Jewish organizations within the University and Morgantown came together for this project. “Unity is strength for the

liked Osborn’s ideas because B&E administration tried to organize an international business program in the past, but it never came about. Insch was on the International Programs Committee three years ago. “I’m very excited about his global perspective,” Insch said. “He has a nice cross-section of understanding what academia is about, not just the business side.” Osborn discussed giving faculty incentives to modifying their curriculum and pursing scholarships such as the Fulbright Scholar Program, which sends 800 faculty and professionals abroad each year, according to its Web site.

Eberly College dean candidate addresses student questions BY DEVON UNGER STAFF WRITER

Robert Jones, the second candidate for West Virginia University’s Eberly College of Arts & Sciences dean position to visit campus, answered questions from a small group of students Wednesday. Jones held an open forum at WVU, where he addressed questions regarding the role of a dean, acquiring funds, graduate studies and diversity. “If you boil down what a dean does, and what they need to do and do well, there really are three tasks,” he said. “You hire very good people, and this includes graduate students as well as staff and faculty, then you create an environment in which they can be successful and be supported, and the third thing is you have to raise funds and bring in new resources to the college.” He gained experience in the

School of Forestry at Auburn University from 1995 to 2002, after which he went to Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University to head the Department of Biological Sciences. If chosen, this would be the first time he has held the position of dean in his career. He addressed the increasing difficulty in obtaining adequate funds and the increased reliance on tuition rather than state funding. He said the three primary ways to obtain funding outside of the state include: tuition, endowments, and donations and grants. He hopes to work extensively with the latter two of these because setting tuition rates are outside of his control. “Many people believe, recruiting dollars is the number one job of a dean,” he said. Promoting diversity would be a priority if he were to get the job, Jones said. He was responsible for

creating a diversity committee at Virginia Tech made up of faculty, staff and students to promote diversity within his department. He said the committee used sensitivity exercises and testimonials of harassment and discrimination to encourage a more diverse atmosphere. Virginia Tech also used the committee to reach out to underrepresented demographics for insight into issues and problems so they could be addressed. Part of his plan for promoting diversity is to encourage diverse pools of candidates for jobs. “I subscribe to the inclusive excellence philosophy: that you build a pool of excellent quality people that is diverse,” Jones said. “We’ve been fortunate in our department, there have been 17 open positions that turned over while I was department head, and about half of them were filled by women. We’ve hired four Hispanic faculty mem-

Temporary blindness is also an effect. “Mace doesn’t come with great directions on its use,” Hoxter said. “That’s something we’re trying to change in the near future.” A decent amount of women at WVU carry the spray, Hoxter said. Approximately 5 percent

of the population has an immunity to pepper spray’s effects, he added. WAR has held similar events such as Drop-A-Cop. Women were invited to tackle police officers to demonstrate effective self-defense techniques. WAR will be in the Mountainlair next Wednesday handing out pamphlets on the WVU PROTECT program, a selfdefense class for women.

Manchin orders inspections for 200 coal mines CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) — Gov. Joe Manchin on Wednesday ordered the immediate inspection of all underground coal mines in West Virginia after an explosion last week killed 29 miners and injured two. Manchin also asked for the state’s more than 200 underground coal mines to cease production Friday to mourn the victims of the nation’s worst coal mining disaster in 40 years. “I don’t know any better way to

honor the miners we’ve lost and the families who are grieving so much,” Manchin said. Manchin wants the miners to show up for work, but to help check on safety instead of producing coal. “If they don’t go to work, they’re not honoring our fallen heroes,” Manchin said. “I don’t think there will be a mine or a miner that won’t honor those fallen heroes.” Massey Energy Co., which owns the Upper Big Branch mine

where the blast occurred, said a work stoppage was an appropriate way to honor the miners killed. “Massey will use this as an opportunity to reflect on the events of April 5th and will focus our attention on safety and training,” the statement said. If the rest of the industry complies with Manchin’s request, about 1 million tons of coal will not be mined, based on 2008 production data. At roughly $60 a ton, the stoppage could cost about $60 million in lost production. It wasn’t clear whether other companies would cease production along with Richmond, Va.based Massey, one of the nation’s top coal producers. A call to the West Virginia Coal Association was not immediately returned. The governor’s executive order tells state regulators to start checking mines that have repeatedly had combustion risks over the last year.

BRIAN KUPPELWEISER ER

SPORTS WRITER

Nobody asked me, but ... Throughout the month of April, there has been a lot (and will be a lot) taking place within the world of sports. Tiger Woods’ return to golf, the Pittsburgh Steelers’ off-the-field issues, the NFL Draft and so much more are all included. All of these events have garnered speculation from many and have been the source of much opinion. I feel the need to join in. Nobody asked me, but here are a few brief thoughts on some of these issues. What is going on with the Pittsburgh Steelers? I am a diehard Steelers fan, and even I am completely embarrassed with their off-field conduct. In the past couple of years, integral parts of the Steelers’ Super Bowl teams have found themselves in the limelight as they have faced criminal charges including Ben Roethlisberger twice, Santonio Holmes multiple times, Jeff Reed twice along with linebacker James Harrison. Maybe the old saying is true that where you find winners, you can find the authorities. Who in their right mind picked Tiger Woods not to make the cut in this past weekend’s Masters? Woods is too good to not compete for a major title. Had it not been for a few bad swings in Sunday’s final round, Tiger would have won the tournament, and what a scene it would have been. The NHL playoffs have started, and let it be known the league has the best postseason of the four major sports. It can turn you into a hockey fan immediately with its momentum swings, big hits and timely goals. It will be everything the Olympic gold medal game between the United States and Canada was, and more. Speaking of which, my pick for the Stanley Cup finals is Pittsburgh vs. the Chicago Blackhawks. I’m not sure who my early favorite for that matchup would be yet, but it would one hell of series. Former Florida quarterback and Heisman Trophy winner Tim Tebow will be a productive player in the NFL. A player with the physical attributes as well as understanding of the game that Tebow has can succeed in the league with less than the necessary talent at the quarterback position. Put Tebow in the right situation, along with veteran players willing to teach, and there you have it. Former Mountaineer quarterback Jarrett Brown, on the other hand, will not be a hit in the NFL. Brown impressed during his pro day and measured out well at the NFL combine, but the cards are stacked against him. Accuracy and quick decision making are the key to success in the NFL, and Brown is lacking in both of those categories. The early departure of Devin Ebanks to the NBA will hurt the West Virginia men’s basketball team next season but not to the extent that most think. Of course, WVU will need to find a go-to scorer with the graduation of Da’Sean Butler in order to make another illustrious run. Kevin Jones can be that go-to player if he makes the progression he did last offseason. The maturation of Deniz Kilicli, Dan Jennings, Casey Mitchell and

Stewart ‘not pleased’ Coach expected team to be at higher level BY GREG CAREY SPORTS WRITER

After watching his team practice for the sixth time this spring, West Virginia head coach Bill Stewart wasn’t the slightest bit pleased with the progression – or lack thereof – he has seen. “I saw too many busted reps out there, and the assignments weren’t as crisp as I thought they should be,” Stewart said. “You get a couple of guys that get hurt and put on a red or green jersey, and suddenly leadership starts spiraling down.” With nearly half of spring practice finished, Stewart has a number of concerns. But a lack of focus and execution on the part of numerous players is not something the thirdyear head coach thought would be problematic this far into spring. “When you’re a senior going into your sixth practice, you need to know your formation and plays. I’m very frustrated right now with where some of our so-called players are,” Stewart said. The coach also voiced his displeasure over several offensive players not lining up in the right spots or running the correct routes. He expressed a need for players to be more accountable for their mistakes. “Some of these guys have to learn the offense. The coach can’t be out there on the field yelling ‘run a post, run a hitch,’” Stewart said. “You’ve got to take it upon yourself to learn, and do what you’re supposed to do.” While Stewart didn’t have much praise for West Virginia’s offense, he was particularly unhappy with the Mountaineers’ defense for practicing in a lethargic manner throughout Wednesday’s session. “I was very displeased with our JON HUDAK/THE DAILY ATHENAEUM

Team to honor fallen miners Mountaineers will wear ‘29’ decal on helmet next season BY BRIAN GAWTHROP SPORTS EDITOR

West Virginia football head coach Bill Stewart announced Wednesday his team’s plan to honor the 29 West Virginia coal miners killed in the Upper Big Branch Mine explosion in Montcoal April 5. The Mountaineers will wear a white decal with the No. 29 symbolizing the fallen miners on the backs of their helmets beginning at the team’s annual Gold-Blue Game April 30. The sticker will remain for the entire 2010 football season. “These 29 miners deserve our respect. It is in honor of the tragic incident down in Raleigh County,” Stewart said. “This is a way we can honor what these guys stood for. They were true West Virginians who were working to support their families. “That blue-collar work ethic is what our program is all about.” Stewart gave a seven-year-old boy whose father was killed in the accident a WVU football jersey signed by senior football players Wednesday. “We are going to dedicate the 2010 season to the miners in Raleigh County,” he said after Wednesday’s practice session. Stewart is no stranger to coal mining accidents. The third-year head coach lost his uncle, Buss Williams, in a mining accident in 1961. The coach stood alongside West Virginia University President James P. Clements Monday at a wreath-hanging ceremony at the West Virginia state capitol, in Charleston, to honor those killed in the worst United States coal mining accident since 1970. The two were joined by junior slot receiver Jock Sanders, senior defensive lineman Chris Neild and senior linebacker J.T. Thomas, as well as former linebacker and Moorefield, W.Va., resident Reed Williams. All were invited by West Virginia Governor Joe Manchin.

Basketball assistant Hahn discusses leadership skills with class BY GREG CAREY SPORTS WRITER

Billy Hahn has spent more than his fair share of his life trying to be a leader. Having been an assistant head coach or head coach in college basketball for 32 of the last 34 years, the West Virginia basketball assistant coach knows all about the qualities associated with a leader. H a h n shared his thoughts on what constitutes a strong leader Wednesday afternoon in professor Karen Hahn Blaney’s organizational management class. During a span of 45 minutes, Hahn came up with a list of qualities that he believes all good leaders possess, which included: motivation, honesty, patience, knowledge, trust, ambition, experience and the ability to set examples. “There are so many different kinds of leadership and leaders, but a leader needs to get his or her followers to reach the goal,” Hahn said. Hahn went in-depth to discuss how West Virginia men’s basketball head coach Bob Huggins and the rest of the coaching staff were “extremely” close to guiding the Mountaineers to

their goal of a national championship this season. Hahn referred to Huggins as the “most honest and up front leader” he has ever been around, and someone who is also “a very matter-of-fact guy.” “Coach Huggins has an unbelievable way of demanding kids to do the right thing every single day,” Hahn said. “I’ve never seen a guy so relentless.” According to Hahn, Huggins is a superior leader because of an ability to direct people in different ways. “The way he changes his ways of leading is phenomenal,” Hahn said. While Huggins is demanding, Hahn sees him as someone who can lead in a tough or passive manner. The passive side showed in West Virginia’s national semifinal loss to Duke, when Huggins came on the court for several minutes to console injured star Da’Sean Butler. “That was one side of leadership nobody had ever seen from coach Huggins,” Hahn said. Many people can lead when all is well in a positive situation, but a true leader must also have an ability to guide others throughout the toughest of times, he said. Hahn knows this as well as anybody, because his wife Kathi was diagnosed with ovarian cancer more than two years

ago. While Hahn was distraught over the news, he refused to let his wife give in and did all he could to help her beat the disease. “Everybody has problems. It’s how you handle those problems,” he said. Hahn made sure his wife handled the situation as best she could. But when she was able to overcome ovarian cancer, the doctors made another dreadful

discovery. This time Kathi had been diagnosed with leukemia. The doctors told Hahn ovarian cancer would be a “walk in the park” compared to leukemia, which they described as a “barroom brawl.” Hahn, along with his 32-yearold son Matt and 26-year-old daughter Ashley, did all he could to keep Kathi in good spirits. She is currently feeling much better, which Hahn attributes to the leadership of doctors and his

family. Kathi feels well enough that she’ll be able to dance in Ashley’s wedding May 29, Hahn said. The situation with his wife helped put a lot of things in perspective for Hahn, who left the class with a clear-cut message. “Go through life like there’s no one promising tomorrow,” Hahn said. “Live in the moment, and appreciate what you have.” gregory.carey@mail.wvu.edu

weren’t. In response to the blast, West Virginia Gov. Joe Manchin has called for all of the states’ mines to cease production Friday. The “Day of Honor and Mourning” will allow mine owners and operators to reevaluate safety procedures in the wake of Upper Big Branch. “No other family should experience the loss that the UBB families are experiencing,” Manchin said in a release. Manchin also issued an executive order requiring immedi-

ate action to identify and fix any conditions in underground coal mines that create similar combustible conditions as those experienced in Montcoal, W.Va. “Mine health and safety laws are in place to protect our coal miners, but it’s clear that a breakdown occurred and we lost 29 miners who should be with us today,” Manchin said. Such a request is fine, so long as the day is actually spent reviewing safety procedures and reevaluating conditions at mining operations.

But as we’ve learned through the tense, agonizing days at Montcoal, mines with endless violations can contest safety conditions and citations for years at a time before making any progress whatsoever. Upper Big Branch had seen fines even on the day explosion relating to previous issues not being rectified. Without more stern, governmental pressure and oversight, it is likely we will continue to see such tragedies occur, destroying families and communities.

The full extent of what happened is not yet known, as investigators are still piecing the puzzle together. The bodies of the miners have only recently been retrieved and their funerals beginning. A full investigation at mining operations should also be conducted as soon as the full investigation of Upper Big Branch concludes. Until then, we will continue to grieve. A candlelight vigil will be held April 20. As reported in today’s Daily

Athenaeum, West Virginia University will honor the fallen miners during the annual Gold-Blue Game April 30. The Mountaineers will wear a white decal with the No. 29, representing the fallen. “These 29 miners deserve our respect,” Stewart said in a release. “This is a way we can honor what these guys stood for. They were true West Virginians who were working to support their families.” daperspectives@mail.wvu.edu

Years later, Rich Rod is still a headache for University RYAN TEGEDER

COLUMNIST

Let’s flash back to 2007. Our former head football coach Rich Rodriguez has just given his infamous “We’re not done yet” speech, and fans are gearing up for the Fiesta Bowl. Then a bomb is dropped on our University as Rodriguez announces he will leave before the season is over to coach for the University of Michigan. Anger spread throughout West Virginia University and Morgantown as Rodriguez fled the state to coach Michigan, leaving us high and dry. I have always been against schools stealing away coaches before the season is over, but this one really stung. A year after he turned down Alabama and promised to remain a Mountaineer, he fled to another shade of gold and blue. It appears now, though, that the departure of Rodriguez may have been the best thing that could have happened to us. The man may have led us to several big bowl victories, but the way he goes about his business taints the entire process. In February, the NCAA officially leveled charges against

Rodriguez that between January 2008 and September 2009, he had committed five major rules violations regarding the amount of time practices were being held. Apparently, Rodriguez exceeded the limit on the amount of organized team activities that could be held, as well as encouraging the student-athletes to focus more on football than academics. Like so many coaches do, Rodriguez forgot that the word student comes first in studentathletes. Now, this would be fine if we could just sit back and bask in the trouble Rodriguez has gotten himself into. Unfortunately, he has found a way to scorn us all over again by dragging us into the investigation. University administrators confirmed Tuesday that NCAA officials had paid a visit to the University. They did so in order to conduct an investigation to see if any NCAA rules had been violated during Rodriguez’s tenure as WVU’s football head coach. Obviously, there are concerns that Rodriguez has been breaking rules for years, which led them to WVU. When will this man stop torturing us? Isn’t it bad enough that he followed his checkbook

for a team full of players that didn’t even want him? I am all for justice, but the NCAA already has Rodriguez to a number of violations at the University of Michigan. We do not need the bad press. It is unlikely WVU will actually be punished. The stigma that our football program somehow cheated is not something the University wants looming over its head. One of the biggest reasons Rodriguez cited for leaving WVU is the Athletic Department would not give him complete control over the football program, which was part of what Michigan offered. Looking at all that has happened since his departure, it seems our administrators were wise not to completely hand him the reigns to WVU football. It took him two years to draw in the first real investigation Michigan has ever had into rules violations for its football team. Imagine what he would have done to WVU in the years he was here if he had been granted complete control of all aspects of the program. Rodriguez may have come back to sting us one more time, but leaving for MichiAP gan is probably the most fortunate “loss” this school has ever In this file photo, former West Virginia University head football coach Rich Rodriguez is introduced at his press conference at the University of Michigan December 17, 2007.

I wish to offer my compliments on how three separate entities represented your school. The ladies of your team played hard and clean. When one of our Texas players hit the floor, one of your players was there to help her up. Your band’s efforts were enjoyed by everyone at the game.

The Mountaineer was so good with kids here. He let them take photos, signed his name and made the kids very happy. This was not my first time obser ving your school’s representatives. You were here two years ago with exactly the same results. As a boy of 12 in Los Angeles, I attended a UCLA vs. WVU game and got to meet Jerry West. Please extend my compliments to everyone who made the trip to Austin. We would hope that your reception was acceptable. Your team’s return to Austin would be most welcome at any time.

Court of Appeals made right decision regarding Westboro Baptist Church CAITLIN CULLEROT

THE DAILY COLLEGIAN PENN STATE UNIVERSITY

By now, we’ve all heard of the infamous Westboro Baptist Church, a hate group based in Topeka, Kan. The “church” is notorious for outrageous stunts, particularly its worldwide protests in which members display signs bearing intolerable messages such as “Thank God for AIDS,” “God hates America” and “Fags are nature freaks.” Not surprisingly, the group’s Web site is godhatesfags.com. Classy.

The WBC gained even more attention a few years ago for picketing soldiers’ funerals, most notably the funeral of Lance Cpl. Matthew Snyder. According to the group, military deaths are the result of America’s tolerance of homosexuality. From the WBC Web site: “These turkeys are not heroes. They are lazy, incompetent idiots looking for jobs because they’re not qualified for honest work.” Funny, I thought they were brave men and women voluntarily risking their lives every day to make sure even the WBC can continue to enjoy liberties such as freedom of speech. Glad we cleared that one up.

After the WBC showed up at Snyder’s funeral in 2006, his father, Albert, was understandably livid. Seeking to silence the outspoken group, he sued the WBC for invasion of privacy and intentional infliction of emotional distress and was awarded nearly $11 million – only to have the U.S. Court of Appeals overturn the verdict. To make matters worse, Snyder was ordered to pay court costs incurred by the WBC, totaling $16,500. Ouch. As much it kills me to admit this, the Court of Appeals probably did the right thing in overturning the verdict. Regrettably, the hateful speech spewed by the WBC is protected by

the Constitution. Does this seem outrageous? Yes. But it’s also necessary. If the Court of Appeals allowed this case to slip by, it would open the floodgates for other freedom of speech cases. It’s terrible to imagine a father’s pain upon losing a son. It’s even harder to imagine what it must have been like the day of Matthew’s funeral. Not only did Albert have to lay his son to rest, but he had to do it while trying to ignore the despicable chants of the WBC declaring that Matthew deserved his untimely death. And now he faces $16,500 in legal bills for trying to defend his son’s name. It seems unfair, and it is. But had

the court ruled any other way, all hell could break loose. It would have been wrong for the court to put Snyder’s emotions before freedoms asserted by the Bill of Rights, and if the court hadn’t ordered Snyder to repay the WBC for its legal fees, people could begin suing each other left and right, knowing they will likely lose, with the intention of plunging the other party into debt. However, there is a happy ending to this sordid story. As Snyder prepares to bring his appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court in October, plenty of strangers have stepped forward to help defray the costs he faces. In fact, even conservative com-

mentator Bill O’Reilly has pledged to pay Snyder’s fees. Though O’Reilly questionably referred to the U.S. justice system as “so screwed up” and blames it for allowing “loons to run wild,” it’s encouraging to see O’Reilly do something for the greater good. O’Reilly is constantly the target of criticism for some of his opinions, and while I tend to disagree with him in most cases, I have no problem swallowing my pride and applauding him for his actions in this instance. So thanks, O’Reilly, for fighting the good fight in this one. I’m glad we can stand together against the WBC, even when the courts are forced to take their

MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL

King: Progress a must with championships nearing

Huﬀ hits inside-the-park homer as Bucs fall

BY JAMIE MCCRACKEN SPORTS WRITER

The West Virginia rowing team will host George Mason Saturday hoping for a better overall performance after head coach Jimmy King felt his team underperformed last weekend. Fewer than two weeks from the Big East Conference Championship in Worcester, Md., the Mountaineers will try to improve their chances after just two boats (varsity 4+ and novice 8+) placed in last week’s Knecht Cup Regatta in Cherry Hill, N.J. King said his team has been plagued with injuries, as well as other mitigating factors, throughout the season, which led to the poor performance in last weekend’s regatta. “We have had to adjust our training because we have a number of girls who were sick with sinus infections,” King said. “We’ve also had a number of girls coming back from injuries, but those things don’t excuse the lack of focus that should be there.” West Virginia competed against George Mason, who placed fourth in the varsity 8+ race with a time of 6:54.44, last weekend. The Mountaineers will enter

four boats in this week’s races: two varsity 8+ boats, a varsity 4+ boat and two novice 4+ boats. “The racing result isn’t so important as the race day preparation and execution – that’s where we really faltered last weekend,” King said. For now, King said his team’s goal is to make every practice count before the race against the Patriots Saturday. “(The team) is down to just a couple of days until the Big East Championship,” King said. “So making every practice count is very meaningful to our success in all of our races.” King also said that his lineups are undetermined as of now, but he will have a better idea by the end of Friday as to who he will put in the boats. The home-race on Monongahela River will be the team’s only race at its home site this season. “We need to do a better job preparing both physically and mentally for each race in order to be at our best on demand,” King said. “That’s the importance of this weekend’s racing in preparation for the Big East Championship a week later.” jamie.mccracken@mail.wvu.edu

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Aubrey Huff hit the first inside-the-park home run of his career and Jonathan Sanchez struck out 11, leading the San Francisco Giants over the Pittsburgh Pirates 6-0 Wednesday. Huff got a helpful carom to circle the bases. Eli Whiteside hit a three-run shot later in the second inning and Aaron Rowand homered a few innings after them. Sanchez (1-0) matched his career best with 11 strikeouts in eight scoreless innings. The Giants improved to 7-2, their best start since beginning 8-1 in 2003 – their last playoff season. Huff led off the second with a drive that hit the arch on the facade in right-center, known in this pitcher-friendly park as triples alley. The ball then ricocheted into right field and gave Huff ample time to round the bases. Huff slid into home, but it wasn’t necessary. This was the first homer of the year for San Francisco’s new cleanup hitter. The Giants’ Nate Schierholtz hit the last inside-the-park homer here last June 14 against Oakland. Seattle’s Ichiro Suzuki did so during the 2007 All-Star Game at AT&T Park. It was the fourth inside-the-park homer in regular-season history at the ballpark, which opened in 2000. Sanchez, who pitched a no-hitter against San Diego last July 10, held the Pirates to three hits. He allowed a single to Lastings Milledge in the first and not another hit until Ronny Cedeno’s double to start the sixth. Sanchez escaped a bases-loaded jam in the sixth on the way to his first career win over Pittsburgh in five appearances. It marked his fourth career outing with 10 or more strikeouts. The left-hander received a rousing standing ovation when he walked off the mound after the eighth. Manager Bruce Bochy turned to closer Brian Wilson for the ninth because he needed work and Sanchez had thrown 109 pitches. Sanchez walked three. Sanchez also had an infield single in the second for his first hit of 2010 and 10th of his career. Huff and Whiteside each added doubles for San Francisco. Pablo Sandoval saw the end to his 12-game hitting streak dating to last season. Charlie Morton (0-2) endured another rough day in his second start of the year. With a 21.60 ERA coming in, the righthander was tagged for six runs and eight hits in six innings. CHICAGO 7, Milwaukee 6 Kosuke Fukudome and Ryan Theriot each hit two-run singles with two outs in the eighth inning, and the Chicago Cubs beat the Milwaukee Brewers 7-6 Wednesday. The Cubs prevailed even though left fielder Alfonso Soriano got lifted after more defensive lapses. Theriot had four hits, Fukudome drove

LaTroy Hawkins (0-1) retired the first two Cubs hitters in the eighth, but a single by Jeff Baker and walks to Geovany Soto and Tyler Colvin loaded the bases. Theriot singled and stole second, setting up Fukudome’s goahead hit. Jeff Gray (1-0) won despite giving up two runs in the eighth. Carlos Marmol struck out the side in the ninth for his third save, and sent the Brewers to their fourth loss in five games. Soriano had another rough day in the field, bobbling Rickie Weeks’ two-run double down the line in the fifth and allowing Corey Hart’s RBI double off the wall to carom by him in the seventh. That made it 4-2 and chased both starter Randy Wells and Soriano, who got pulled for Colvin and trotted off the field to loud boos. MINNESOTA 6, Boston 3 Rain fell on the Minnesota Twins at home for the first time in 29 years and John Lackey dampened their bats. Lackey turned in a second strong start and Jeremy Hermida gave Boston room with a three-run double in the eighth inning, leading the Red Sox to a 6-3 win Wednesday in the second game at Target Field. Lackey (1-0) lasted 6 2/3 innings for his first Red Sox victory, lifted early by Marco Scutaro’s two singles and Dustin Pedroia’s RBI double and solo home run. The crowd of 38,164, more than 1,000 below capacity, rediscovered baseball’s unique

relationship with the weather. Temperature at first pitch was 73 degrees, but raindrops started to fall in the third and sprinkled the sparkling new ballpark intermittently over the next four innings. Some fans went scurrying for the concourses and others hastily put up their umbrellas, but the rain brought a cheer and a few chants of “out-door base-ball” in another sign of the celebration of Minnesota’s move out of the Metrodome to an openair facility. Twins starter Kevin Slowey (1-1) inched through five, giving up three runs and taking the loss. TAMPA BAY 9, Baltimore 1 B.J. Upton homered twice and drove in four runs, Carlos Pena hit a three-run shot and the Tampa Bay Rays ended a dreadful homestand for the Baltimore Orioles with a 9-1 victory Wednesday. David Price (2-0) allowed one run and four hits in seven innings for the Rays, whose 6-3 start is the best in franchise history. Tampa Bay swept the three-game series, something it did only once on the road last year. Miguel Tejada homered for the Orioles, who went 0-6 and were outscored 37-16 during their opening homestand against Toronto and the Rays. Baltimore is 1-8, its worst start since going 0-21 in 1988. Orioles starter Brad Bergesen (0-1) gave up eight runs, five earned, in three-plus innings. After enjoying a promising rookie season in 2009, the right-hander has an 11.74 ERA after two starts.

FOOTBALL Continued from PAGE 3 defense. Our defense started off practice bad and never picked it up,” Stewart said. “I didn’t see anything that I liked out there.” With the team’s first scrimmage set for Saturday, Stewart expects more consistent leadership from veteran players to set the tone and increase productivity in practice. “Leadership is the action of doing,” he said. “It is the action and constantly doing that makes a good leader. Chemistry comes from those who buy in and follow and they begin to do. “There was no leadership today and there was no chemistry today.” PRACTICE NOTES Quarterback Coley White has steadily improved as a passer since practice began April 6. The sophomore drew praise from his head coach for progressing as a quarterback, even though he may be used as a slot receiver by the time the regular season rolls around. “I like what I see with Coley. He can run the option, he can get up in the alley, and he has made some nice throws as well. He is

getting better,” Stewart said. “We have to get him some catches as a slot because he wants to play that. Maybe that is where he will be and maybe not.” White connected with tight end Will Johnson on a pretty touch pass on a post route for an 18-yard completion Wednesday. Stewart offered a vote of confidence for the left side of West Virginia’s offensive line but would like to see major improvement on the unit’s right side. “We’re solid on the left side. I don’t like anything I see at right guard or tackle at this point,” he said. Stewart admitted he is unsure of who will start at right tackle. The three names he offered as being in the mix for playing time at the position were Jeff Braun, Cole Bowers and Nick Kindler. Five WVU players were in red non-contact jerseys for Wednesday’s practice including Keith Tandy, J.D. Woods, Daquan Hargrett, Ryan Nehlen and Lawrence Smith. Six other Mountaineers were in green non-contact jerseys including Noel Devine, Geno Smith, Shawne Alston, Tyler Bitancurt, Brad Starks and Matt Timmerman. gregory.carey@mail.wvu.edu

ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — Orlando center Dwight Howard has started a fund for at-risk children around the world, beginning with a $100,000 donation for young earthquake victims in Haiti. The Magic’s All-Star center and teammate Adonal Foyle formed

the “The Dwight Howard Fund” announced Wednesday. Howard has tapped Foyle’s Kerosene Lamp Foundation to manage the fund for him. The fund will start an online fundraising campaign to help match Howard’s contribution for Haiti, with a minimum do-

nation of $2.99. The January earthquake in Haiti killed a government-estimated 230,000 people and left more than a million homeless in the Caribbean nation. Foyle was recently inducted into the World Sports Humanitarian Hall of Fame.

HOROSCOPES BY JACQUELINE BIGAR BORN TODAY This year, you see life with renewed interest. You see ways to maximize your security and finances. Often, you will look risks directly in the eye. Be very sane about taking a risk, as the damages could be great. Include emotional risking in this category. Always be sure you can accept the fallout if you decide to go for it. If you are single, you consider new possibilities as a result of a newfound openness. The people you meet could be unusually interesting. Just check that this person really is emotionally available before getting involved. If you are attached, the two of you need to work more as a team, emphasizing security. TAURUS can be a little too practical for your taste. ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL 19) ★★★★ Someone you answer to could make demands. Detach from the immediate issue in order to get down to the very basics. There are solutions. You also might gain more understanding of what is necessary to allow greater creative flow. Tonight: Your treat. TAURUS (APRIL 20-MAY 20) ★★★★★ You don’t know what to do with a difficult situation that emanates from a domestic or property-related issue. Your ability to communi-

cate accelerates as you seek out solutions. Know what you want. Tonight: Think “weekend.” GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 20) ★★★ Knowing that more is on your plate than you can handle could be important in making decisions. You could be overwhelmed by all the possibilities that lie in front of you. Sometimes you need to step back and do some questioning. Be careful about a difficult conversation. Tonight: Do your thing. CANCER (JUNE 21-JULY 22) ★★★★★ A meeting could have a far greater impact than you anticipated. Enlist the support of others, both financially and emotionally, in a key project. Your opportunities are many and allow you greater flexibility than anticipated. Tonight: Where the action is. LEO (JULY 23-AUG. 22) ★★★ Your fiery side emerges too quickly when you think you are challenged. That might not be the case. Relax and work with this person. A meeting could prove to be most enlightening. Many ideas are exchanged. Tonight: In the limelight. VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEPT. 22) ★★★★★ Keep thinking outside the box, and you’ll come up with ideas left and right.

How you handle a changeable situation, whether it is a relationship or a heartfelt project, could transform if you transform also. Try to push away from either/or situations. Tonight: Let your mind wander to great music. LIBRA (SEPT. 23-OCT. 22) ★★★★★ A partner wants and needs more control. You could be irritated, as it appears he or she might be stepping on your desires and boundaries. Investigate different alternatives within a meeting or get-together. Tonight: Chat over dinner. SCORPIO (OCT. 23-NOV. 21) ★★★★ Listen to another person’s sharing. How you deal with someone could change radically. If you’re investigating alternatives to a difficult professional or emotional matter, hold back some. Others chime in, and it gives you a better sense of where you are. Tonight: Say “yes.” SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22-DEC. 21) ★★★★ An even, mellow approach could go far. You might want to push someone, but that won’t work. If you’re challenged, get to the base of your resistance. You could be surprised by what comes up for you. Be willing to flex, espe-

cially in your daily life. Tonight: Squeeze in some exercise. CAPRICORN (DEC. 22-JAN. 19) ★★★★★ Sometimes pressure helps you come up with unusual solutions. Your creativity soars in the face of one of these challenges. Understand what is happening with an irritated associate. The right solution can incorporate everyone’s bottom line. Tonight: Let your imagination rock and roll. AQUARIUS (JAN. 20-FEB. 18) ★★★ You could be holding back and not be too happy at first. Refuse to place yourself in a difficult situation. Just keep working with new information, knowing there is an answer. You just might not have seen the solution yet. Tonight: At home. PISCES (FEB. 19-MARCH 20) ★★★★★ If you keep communication flowing, even a disagreement isn’t hard. You discover that a meeting or a friend could be the source of a solution. Others also might be looking to greater flexibility. Tonight: Say “yes” to an invitation.

THE DAILY ATHENAEUM

HaveYouSeen? ‘The Projectionist’ a cult film searching for an audience JUSTIN CHANNELL

A&E FILM CRITIC

For years, I kept hearing about this weird independent film from the ’70s called “The Projectionist.” I really didn’t know much about the film, other than the fact that it was the first film appearance made by comedian Rodney Dangerfield. Even though “The Projectionist” is unknown to most audiences, it has gained enough of a cult following to be selected for restoration by the New York Museum of Modern Art. Chuck McCann stars as the titular character, a projectionist who works at a classy movie theater in New York City. The projectionist is a man who lives for the movies and has a nightly ritual of walking past a series of head shots of Hollywood legends he has lined up across the booth. As he passes each one, he goes through a perfect imitation of their famous lines from the screen. His small studio apartment is covered, wall-to-wall, with classic one-sheets, and the only people he interacts with are his coworkers. He also enjoys the company of the ushers and an aging immigrant working the concession stand (Jara Kohout). The one person that the projectionist wishes he did not have to deal with is the theater manager, Renaldi (Dangerfield).

QUARTET Continued from PAGE 10 Alberque said. “It is important to know exactly what is happening in each other’s part.” Some practicing techniques the ensemble uses include playing the pieces slowly to internalize each other’s part and intonation, listening to recordings and after playing the piece for some time, crafting a unique interpretation. “As a group, we must collaborate and decide on our own interpretation,” Alberque said. “This process is both exciting and fulfilling when each member of the group has a chance to voice their ideas.” A viola performance graduate

Renaldi doesn’t care about cinema the way the projectionist does and is more interested in shady practices like loading the popcorn with extra salt to maximize soda profits. However, these scenes only make up a short segment of the “The Projectionist.” There are only about 20 minutes of footage in the film that include dialogue and sync sound. The majority of the screen time is spent focusing on what the projectionist does best: escaping his mundane life through the classic tales he presents on celluloid every night. When he begins fantasizing, the film goes into a silent fantasy, where the projectionist is a superhero named Captain Flash and Renaldi is the evil villain, The Bat. These scenes are interspersed with real footage of classic movies, as well as wartime footage. There is even a scene in which the projectionist finds himself in Rick’s Cafe Americain from “Casablanca.” Considering the fact that this film was shot on a low budget in the late ’60s, the superimposition used in “The Projectionist” is incredibly impressive. Another interesting stylistic trait of the film is that all of the fantasy scenes – while lacking spoken dialogue – have comic book-style word balloons that pop up beside the actors’ mouths. This is just barely a description of how odd “The Projectionist” really becomes, but the entire time, this filmic experiment student since May 2008, this concert will be Alberque’s last appearance with the WVU Graduate String Quartet. The Haydn Quartet was composed in 1797 and captures the spirit of the Classical period by adhering to a stable, homophonic texture with less counterpoint than the era it was preceded by. Coached weekly by William Skidmore, WVU’s cello professor, Beattie has been playing with the ensemble for two years. Beattie said Skidmore helps the group, which began life as a string trio until Genaro joined the ensemble in 2009, to decide which pieces would suit them best. “We all four decide what pieces we work on with influence from

It might be hard to piece together what it all means, but “The Projectionist” is an avant-garde style love letter to the golden era of Hollywood, told through the imagination of a lonely film enthusiast. While the film was released on DVD and features a remastered presentation, the disc has since gone out of production. Luckily, used copies can easily be found. It’s a shame a film like “The Projectionist” still hasn’t managed to find an audience large enough to keep the film more available. Grade: A justin.channell@mail.wvu.edu

professor Skidmore and based on what the other groups have recently performed,” Beattie said. Unlike other ensembles, the WVU Graduate String Quartet does not have a leader. Instead, the four players hold equal sway over the group’s decisions. “We all have veto power. For example, if three of us absolutely love a piece and one hates it, then we won’t play it,” Beattie said. “We spend so many hours rehearsing these pieces and practicing them individually that each of us must like them well enough to be able to commit this kind of time and energy to them.” The concert is free and open to the public.

No legal action in ‘Jon & Kate’ labor probe HORSHAM, Pa. (AP) — Child-labor permits should have been obtained for children appearing on the TLC television show “Jon & Kate Plus 8,” but the state will not take legal action against the producers, Pennsylvania regulators have concluded. No action will be taken if a portion of proceeds from the nowcanceled reality program are put into a trust fund for Jon and Kate Gosselin’s children and child-labor permits are obtained for future filming, the state Department of Labor & Industry said in a ruling made public Wednesday. The new stipulations must be met or labor regulators may prosecute in the future, officials said. Laurie Goldberg, a spokeswoman for Discovery Talent Services and TLC, said the companies have complied with state labor regulations and continue to do so. They agreed to get permits even though they maintain they are not required under Pennsylvania law, she said. The state agency launched an investigation after receiving several complaints from the public beginning in late 2008, labor officials said Wednesday at a related legislative hearing. Their probe concluded that during the filming of “Jon & Kate Plus 8,” which followed the lives of the couple and their eight children, the kids were employed under Pennsylvania’s Child Labor Law because of the direction they sometimes received, because of their continued participation in the series and because the Gosselins and others were paid for the show.

The Gosselins’ twins were 9 and their sextuplets 5 during the show’s final season, which ended last fall. “It’s important to note that we did an investigation, and we made sure the children were not in any danger or endangered as a result of the work they were doing,” said Labor & Industry press secretary Troy Thompson. But civil rights attorney Gloria Allred found it “rather shocking” that no penalties were assessed and that Pennsylvania labor officials – by their own admission – completed their investigation without visiting the Gosselins’ house in Wernersville. “That’s where the workplace was,” she said Wednesday at the hearing on reforming Pennsylvania’s Child Labor Law. Figure 8 Films, Discovery Talent Services, the Gosselins, TLC and other parties affiliated with “Jon & Kate Plus 8” all deny there were violations of the child-labor law or that permits were required. Alisha Agemy with Figure 8 Films declined to comment. Labor officials also ruled that at least 15 percent of the show’s gross proceeds, due to the children, must be placed in irrevocable trust funds until they reach the age of 18 or unless needed for their safety, education, welfare or health. The trust was established in November with more than the required 15 percent, Goldberg said. Also Wednesday, Gosselin’s brother Kevin Kreider testified at the hearing in Horsham that the state’s child-labor laws need to

catch up with the realities of today’s media world. Children in scripted TV shows are legally protected in ways that children on reality TV shows are not, he said, leaving the latter vulnerable to invasions of privacy, personal security risks, financial hardship and potential psychological damage. Kreider lamented the potty training of his nieces and nephews is now available for anyone to see on DVD or the Internet, a statement that raised the eyebrows of several lawmakers concerned with child nudity. Kreider participated in early episodes of the show but is now estranged from his sister. He said the kids were once falsely told it was Christmas in order to get “genuine” reactions. “Can you imagine how confused eight little kids were that morning?” he said. Goldberg responded in a statement by saying “the welfare of and respect for anyone on our network is always paramount, and these allegations are either completely inaccurate or a distorted representation for maximum attention.” Allred urged lawmakers to look at California’s much stricter childlabor law, noting officials in that state issued citations to the Web site RadarOnline for its overly extensive filming of two of Nadya Suleman’s octuplets being brought home from the hospital. TLC is planning to film some “Kate Plus 8” specials this summer now that the Gosselins have divorced. Kate Gosselin has custody of the children.

Art seniors give final exhibition at CAC Students present work for their capstone course BY AARON DAWSON A&E CORRESPONDENT

Some capstone experiences can be as simple as a one-time lecture, while others involve a semester full of hands-on experience as an intern. For art majors, their capstone experience involves presenting their work in West Virginia University’s Mesaros Galleries, located in the Creative Arts

Center. From the 2010 graduating class, art majors Matthew Lineham, Joey Trotto and others will present their work to the public, with an opening reception tonight from 5 to 7. Lineham, a senior art major, will be presenting two paintings of dead rock musicians he completed this semester. “(These paintings) depict my personal favorite dead music icons as they appear to me: as gods,” Lineham said. The first painting glorifies soul legend Marvin Gaye, while the other captures the spirit of Joe Strummer, singer and punk icon formerly of The Clash. “Honestly, music is what influences me,” Lineham said.

Lineham is the former lead singer of Morgantown band The Gentlemen, but music is not his only source of inspiration. “I love so many different painters, there are too many to mention” Lineham said. “I have just taken my favorite aspects of what I look for in a piece and combined them so I may have my own recognizable body of work. But, when it comes down to it, I am influenced by bands, music and the artwork associated with these bands.” As an artist whose work has been featured in children’s books and who will present those paintings and others at an art show in the High Street coffee shop so.zo, Lineham plans to Move to New York City after

graduating to pursue art and a new band full-time. The Mesaros Gallaries are located in the CAC’s lobby and are halved into two spaces for exhibitions. Trotto, a senior art major, said the venue “provides a humble slice of the professional art world; clean, roomy and modern.” “I love those hardwood floors,” he said. Trotto will exhibit a pair of relief prints. “They are blind embossments printed from a carved wood block,” Trotto said. “A blind embossment involves printing a relief surface with no ink, therefore exhibiting only a dimensional change in the paper’s surface. As such, the series is ti-

tled ‘Blinds.’” Trotto said his process for creating art is similar to the compositional process of Ludwig Van Beethoven, not Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart; a grueling procedure involving considerable questioning of each decision put into the final product. “Personally, I go through a long trial and error process. When something doesn’t work, I figure out why and I fix it,” Trotto said. “Creating artwork involves a hefty amount of problem solving, and I think that’s what attracts me most. I am extremely process-oriented.” Although Trotto allows his work to benefit from the trial and error process, he said he also benefits from its labors as

a broader idea of what the work should become begins to clarify and present itself. “For my ‘Blinds’ series, I worked through a number of smaller pieces, allowing the work to evolve as I encountered various challenges,” Trotto said. “The final pieces present to the viewer a physical presence; a testament to their processdriven creation.” After graduation, Trotto plans to move his efforts to Denver, working as an independent artist and working outside of academia. “Throughout this time I plan to continue developing my art-making practices, in a

WVU Grad String Quartet ends West Virginia Public Theatre semester with concert at the CAC opens new season, venue Friday BY AARON DAWSON A&E CORRESPONDENT

While some students are preparing for their last weeks of college, four string players are preparing to perform as an ensemble for the last time. Tonight at 8:15, the West Virginia University Graduate String Quartet will perform in

Bloch Hall in the Creative Arts Center. Playing Franz Joseph Haydn’s “Sunrise String Quartet in B Flat Major” and Johannes Brahms’ “String Quartet, Op. 51, No. 1” are Melissa Alberque, viola, Sara Beattie, cello and doctoral students Genaro Medina and Seung Hee Yeo playing violin. Finished in 1873, the Brahms

quartet is characteristic of the Romantic period by presenting long lyrical lines over a harmonically unstable backdrop and is a favorite of Alberque’s. “When preparing a piece at this level of performance, the performers must become very familiar with the entire score,”

West Virginia Public Theatre will present an annual fundraising event, “An Evening with...The Superstars,” Friday at 7:30 p.m. The show is a celebrity tribute and includes concerts and skits with professional imitators who portray celebrities like Michael Jackson, Cher, Rod Stewart, Shania Twain, Frank Sinatra, Neil Diamond and Dean Martin. These imitations are presented as a group and done through the program “Legends Concerts.” The singers and actors interact with each other as their respective characters. The event will feature arena

seating like most concert-style settings and will be in West Virginia Public Theatre’s new venue, the Morgantown Event Center near the Waterfront Place Hotel. “It is the perfect place because people can park and have a meal and then go see this exciting event,” said Ron Iannone, producer and creator of West Virginia Public Theatre. West Virginia Public Theatre is a professional, nonprofit theater group that shows Broadway-style shows. Its summer schedule includes “Hairspray,” “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat” and “The Full Monty.” The organization started in a small outdoor tent theater in

1985 at the Sheraton Lakeview Resort parking lot. The company has grown to become West Virginia’s top producing professional theater in the region. It has also received the Northern West Virginia Convention and Tourism Bureau award for its work in bringing visitors to Northern West Virginia. Priority seating is $50, while general seating is $25. Tickets can be bought online at www. wvpublictheatre.com, at the Morgantown Event Center or by phone at 304-291-4117.

Justin Nozuka’s latest release shows singer’s guitar, vocal chops JORDAN PACK

A&E WRITER

Acoustic rock singer-songwriter Justin Nozuka has released his latest effort, “You I Wind Land and Sea.” Unlike his debut record “Holly,” this album shows a soulful side as well as Nozuka’s impressive tone, vocals and lyrical skills. “Gray” is a haunting song with a driving drum beat in the background. On this track, his raw and natural voice shines and comes across as effortless. “Love” has an earthy feel to it and is a sweet and romantic song that almost everyone can relate to. The lyrics are moving, causing the song to give off a bit of a spiritual vibe. Nozuka has grittier vocals than usual on the soulful “Carried You,” a true, poetic song about peace and love. He also proves how strong of a guitar player he is with impressive chops on this track.

“Heartless” is real and emotional and continues to show off his fantastic vocals. Not only is this song also relatable like his others, but it’s an honest recording where his talent really excels. He puts his falsetto to best use on “Soulless Man.” It’s a piano ballad sung straight from the soul, despite its contradictory title. “You I Wind Land and Sea” is a feel-good song that urges people to “fight for love.” Compared to the rest of the songs on the album, this gives off more of a rock vibe and even has a bit of a reggae feel at times. “Swan in the Water” is a track that proves how distinct and unique Nozuka is musically and lyrically. As far as his songwriting goes, this is one of his best works. “Hallow Men” is hard to not pay attention to because of his smooth voice and ability to sing runs and melismata much easier than most. The album ends on a strong note with “How Low.” It proves Nozuka is strongest behind his
