COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) ? It started with a few kids who wanted tattoos. The owner of the tattoo parlor wasn't necessarily a big Buckeyes fan, but he liked having them around.

It ended with NCAA infractions and a year of investigations. On Tuesday, Ohio State finally got the verdict on its memorabilia-for-cash scandal from the NCAA's committee on infractions.

The NCAA declared that the Buckeyes and new coach Urban Meyer will be banned from a bowl game after next season. In addition, Meyer will have fewer scholarships to hand out, the university will be on three years of probation and former coach Jim Tressel will forever be linked to the scandal that brought down his successful tenure.

The root of Ohio State's year of NCAA woes was Fine Line Ink, a rundown tattoo parlor on a Columbus street corner. A player or two went there for tattoos and the word spread through the team that the owner, Eddie Rife, kept his door open and Fine Line was a cool place to hang out.

More and more players got involved with Rife in 2009 and early 2010, and some accepted cash and free or discounted tattoos. Before long, Rife began trading money for sports memorabilia ? championship rings and autographed jerseys and gloves.

At this same time, the U.S. attorney's office was keeping an eye on Rife in a federal drug-trafficking case surrounding the sale of marijuana. As part of its probe, the U.S. Attorney got a subpoena and raided Rife's home, where agents came across numerous Ohio State articles signed or owned by current and former players.

On April 2, 2010, a former Buckeyes walk-on player now a Columbus lawyer, Chris Cicero, emailed Tressel to warn him that several Buckeyes players "have taken Eddie Rife signed Ohio State memorabilia (shirts/jerseys/footballs) who has been selling it for profit. I dont know if he gives any money in return to the players. I have been told OSU players including (redacted) have been given free tattoo's in exchange for signed memorabilia."

Cicero's first email also hinted that Rife was a felon who had witnessed a homicide.

Tressel's contract required him to "report promptly to the (athletic director) in writing any violations" of Ohio State or NCAA rules and regulations. Yet the only person to whom he forwarded Cicero's email was Ted Sarniak, star quarterback Terrelle Pryor's hometown mentor, who had already been investigated ? and cleared ? by the NCAA for his relationship with the player.

Even though Tressel responded to Cicero, "I will get on it ASAP" ? all he did was caution the players to stay away from the tattoo parlor while not letting anyone at Ohio State know what he knew.

Tressel and Cicero communicated sporadically through the summer about the players, Rife and Fine Line.

On Sept. 13, 2010, Tressel signed a standard NCAA compliance form with which he certified he had reported any knowledge of alleged violations to his superiors at Ohio State.

The Buckeyes had a good season, going 11-1 and winning their sixth straight Big Ten title. But while they were preparing to play Arkansas in the Sugar Bowl, another bombshell hit and the case went public.

The U.S. attorney's office sent a letter to Ohio State on Dec. 7, 2010, asking about the many signed and personalized jerseys, cleats, shoes, trophies and rings it had confiscated during its raid of Rife's home. Ohio State eventually asked Tressel, who feigned ignorance of the situation.

Tressel, in later NCAA testimony, said he felt relief instead of regret that his players' violations had come to light.

"When the inevitable happened to us and the letter came, you know, the hallelujah letter, in my mind - from the U.S. Department of Justice ? was there was no allegation that any of these players were involved in or had knowledge of Mr. Rife's drug trafficking," Tressel told the NCAA. "I'm like, 'This is the greatest.'"

Ohio State and the NCAA wrapped up an investigation of the case in less than two weeks and then suspended six players. After consulting with the NCAA, the players were allowed on the field for the Sugar Bowl. Five players, including Pryor, leading 2010 rusher Daniel "Boom" Herron and No. 2 receiver DeVier Posey were suspended for the first five games of the 2011 season, with another player forced to sit out the 2011 season opener.

The Buckeyes went on to beat Arkansas, 31-26, with all of the suspended players playing major roles. Backup defensive lineman Solomon Thomas ? one of the so-called "Tattoo Five" ? intercepted a pass in the final minute to preserve the victory.

While Ohio State was "reviewing information on an unrelated legal issue" on Jan. 13, 2011, it came across Tressel's email exchange with Cicero. That opened another investigation. On March 8, Ohio State and the NCAA suspended Tressel for two games and fined him $250,000. When there was a public outcry that he had violated more egregious rules than the players ? lying to the NCAA and covering up violations ? yet had a shorter suspension, the university said that Tressel had agreed to extend his suspension to five games.

At the news conference announcing Tressel's initial suspension, Ohio State President E. Gordon Gee was asked if he had considered firing Tressel.

"No, are you kidding?" he joked. "Let me just be very clear: I'm just hopeful the coach doesn't dismiss me."

No one was laughing at the university, however. Throughout the next five months, there was a steady stream of allegations. Few coaches who have violated NCAA bylaw 10.1 ? being untruthful to the NCAA ? have survived. By the end of May, the pressure to do something about Tressel's tenuous situation had ratcheted up.

Gee and AD Gene Smith met with Tressel in late May, pressuring him to step aside as coach and end his 10-year tenure at Ohio State. They selected Luke Fickell, a former Ohio State player and nine-year defensive assistant coach, to take his place as interim coach.

A short time later, Pryor, with the NCAA on his heels, declared he would give up his senior season and jump to the NFL. He was taken in a special draft and is now with the Oakland Raiders.

Throughout the summer, the NCAA and Ohio State continued to look into a variety of troubling matters dealing with Ohio State football players, from top-of-the-line loaner cars to discount furniture, deals on apartments to free golf and allegations that some players received thousands of dollars for signing pictures from a credentialed sideline photographer.

On July 8, Ohio State responded to the NCAA's list of allegations. It vacated the 2010 season, including the Sugar Bowl win, put itself on two years of NCAA probation and said it would take another look at its compliance process. It listed as mitigating circumstances that it had accepted Tressel's resignation (even though it later allowed him to say he had resigned and gave him another month of salary at $53,000) and had suspended the players.

Tressel was on hand when Ohio State went before the NCAA's committee on infractions on Aug. 12. Smith surprised many by saying Ohio State would give up $339,000 in bowl revenue from 2010.

That wasn't the end of Ohio State's headaches, however.

Just two days before the season-opener against Akron, three players ? starting running back Jordan Hall (a high school teammate of Pryor's) and cornerback Travis Howard, along with backup safety Corey Brown ? were suspended for accepting $200 in cash while attending a charity event in suburban Cleveland in March. One of the organizers of that event was Bobby DiGeronimo, a businessman in Independence, Ohio, who had long been a friend of the program who had hired Ohio State players to work summer jobs.

Those three were held out of the first two games of the season.

The week the Buckeyes were supposed to get Posey, Herron, offensive lineman Mike Adams and Thomas back, Posey and Herron were suspended again ? this time along with three others for taking too much money for too little work from DiGeronimo. The NCAA determined Posey had accepted $727.50 for 48 1/2 hours of work that was not performed. Herron received $292.50 too much.

Herron was held out of another game (totaling the first six of the season), while linebacker Etienne Sabino, offensive lineman Marcus Hall and defensive lineman Melvin Fellows gave back the money they were overpaid and were allowed to return to the team. Posey was hit with an additional five-game suspension, leaving him just two games in his senior season. In addition, Ohio State banned DiGeronimo from any further contact with athletes.

While the distracted Buckeyes struggled through the season ? going 6-6 heading into the Jan. 2 Gator Bowl against Florida ? everyone was waiting for the final word from the NCAA on penalties.

The Buckeyes did give their fans reason to look ahead when they hired Meyer, an Ohio native who won two national championships at Florida, on Nov. 28. Meyer has put together a solid recruiting season and is in the process of filling out his new coaching staff.

But even he had a hard time swallowing the penalties that came down Tuesday.

"The NCAA penalties will serve as a reminder that the college experience does not include the behavior that led to these penalties," he said in a statement.

NEW YORK (AP) ? Pentagon officials say they have transferred eight soldiers to another base amid allegations that they mistreated one of their comrades shortly before he committed suicide in a guardhouse in Afghanistan.

The soldiers face charges ranging from dereliction of duty to involuntary manslaughter in the death of 19-year-old Army Pvt. Daniel Chen of New York City. Chen's relatives say he endured weeks of racial teasing and name calling while in training, then was subjected to hazing after he was deployed to Afghanistan.

A Pentagon spokesman, Navy Capt. John Kirby, said Wednesday the military was taking a zero-tolerance attitude toward soldiers who mistreat their comrades.

"That's what this uniform requires. And when we don't, there's a justice system in place to deal with it," Kirby said. "Hazing's not tolerated in the military. If it's found and it's proven, it's dealt with."

The eight soldiers are part of an infantry regiment based in Fort Wainright, Alaska. The soldiers are still in Afghanistan but have been relieved of their duties and confined to a different base, the military said. The next step is a hearing to determine if there is enough evidence for a court martial. The proceedings are expected to be held in Afghanistan.

The two most serious charges, involuntary manslaughter and negligent homicide, carry prison sentences of up to 10 years and three years, respectively, under military law.

At a news conference in New York's Chinatown, Elizabeth OuYang, a community activist who is representing his parents, said Chen had complained about the teasing in Facebook and email messages, discussions with cousins and in his journal. The Army has released excerpts of the journal to his parents.

Fellow soldiers at a base in Georgia teased him about his Chinese name, crying out "Chen!" in an exaggerated Asian accent, OuYang said. They called him "Jackie Chen," a reference to the Hollywood action star Jackie Chan. People would ask him repeatedly if he was Chinese, even though he was a native New Yorker.

At one point Chen wrote in his diary that he was running out of jokes to respond with.

Then he was sent overseas, and the hazing began: Soldiers dragged him across a floor, pelted him with stones and forced him to hold liquid in his mouth while hanging upside down, OuYang said.

On Oct. 3, Chen was found dead in a guardhouse in Afghanistan with what the Army said was apparently a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

"Whether suicide or homicide, those responsible for mistreating Danny are responsible for his death," OuYang said.

Attorneys for the defendants could not immediately be located.

Eugene Fidell, an expert on military law and former president of the National Institute of Military Justice, said bullying has been a recurring problem for the military.

"If there was brutality within the unit, that's a betrayal of the bond of brotherhood," he said. "That is, in theory, the underpinning of what holds a military command together."

In 2010, three Army sergeants were punished after Pvt. Keiffer Wilhelm of Willard, Ohio, killed himself 10 days after arriving in Iraq with a platoon based in Fort Bliss, Texas. Wilhelm's family said he was being bullied and forced to run for miles with rocks in his pockets.

Two sergeants were imprisoned for six months and three months, respectively, on charges of cruelty and maltreatment. The third was convicted of obstructing justice and given a one-grade reduction in pay.

Activists said Chen's case has raised questions about the military's treatment of its tiny Asian-American minority.

"We love our country and we want to serve our country, but it's not worth it if we can't be protected from people who are supposed to be on our side," OuYang said.

In 2008 people of Asian descent made up only 1.8 percent of new military recruits, even though they represent 4.15 percent of the total population of American 18-to-24-year-olds, a Pentagon report said. The percentages of whites, blacks and Hispanics reflected the wider population more closely.

On Wednesday Chen's relatives said they were encouraged by the Pentagon's action against the eight soldiers.

"We realize that Danny will never return, but it gives us some hope," Yen Tao Chen, his father, said through a translator.

Chen was assigned to the 3rd Battalion, 21st Infantry Regiment, 1st Stryker Brigade Combat Team, 25th Infantry Division, based in Fort Wainwright, Alaska.

The Army identified the soldiers charged as 1st Lt. Daniel J. Schwartz, 25, of Maryland (no hometown was given); Staff Sgt. Blaine G. Dugas, 35, of Port Arthur, Texas; Staff Sgt. Andrew J. Van Bockel, 26, of Aberdeen, S.D.; Sgt. Adam M. Holcomb, 29, of Youngstown, Ohio; Sgt. Jeffrey T. Hurst, 26, of Brooklyn, Iowa; Spc. Thomas P. Curtis, 25, of Hendersonville, Tenn; Spc. Ryan J. Offutt, 32, of Greenville, Pa.; and Sgt. Travis F. Carden, 24, of Fowler, Ind.

VanBockel, Holcomb, Hurst, Curtis and Offutt were charged with the most serious offenses, including involuntary manslaughter, negligent homicide, and assault and battery.

Offutt's mother, Carol Tate of Sharon, Pa., told The (Sharon) Herald that she has known about the charges for a while and has talked to her son.

"I think there's a lot of things that really haven't been brought up," she said, but declined further comment.

Schwartz, the only officer among the accused, was charged with dereliction of duty.

The two most serious charges, involuntary manslaughter and negligent homicide, carry prison sentences of up to 10 years and three years, respectively, under military law.

Heather Wagner: Killed by the Kardashians

I am writing this from beyond the grave, so my apologies in advance for any typos or inconsistencies in tense.

It started out as a rather unremarkable Saturday. I was nursing a mild cold, the TV remote was sluggishly low on batteries, thus I found myself viewing a Kourtney and Kim Take New York marathon. Five-and-a-half hours later, I found myself gasping my last breath as my glass of Sauvignon Blanc rolled to the floor, a la Citizen Kane. I was, quite literally, bored to death.

Miraculously, I've been given a portal to the land of the living, via HuffPost TV, so I thought I would use this rare conduit from the afterlife to share the soul-deadening horror of what I have witnessed. Because it's not just boring -- it's bad. It's bad in a very specific, post-millenial way, which I will attempt to deconstruct for you here.

It seems many people harbor harsh feelings re: the Kardashians without having watched a minute of Kardashian programming. This shapely clan of sultry opportunists has seeped into our cultural consciousness like a leaky breast implant. You're probably aware that Kim, 30, threw a multi-million dollar wedding for a marriage that lasted 72 days, and that she and her (ex) fianc?, hulking New Jersey Nets power forward Kris Humphries, were subsequently lambasted on the Internet-o-sphere for said sham-nuptials.

Maybe you're also vaguely cognizant that Kim's sister Khloe is married to another NBA star, Lamar Odom, and they, too, have their own spin-off show (Khloe & Lamar) and that a third sister, Kourtney, joins them as partner in an upscale Kardashian retail store ("Dash"). Perhaps you know the family matriarch is calculating stage-mom Kris Jenner and the patriarch is hapless former Olympic champion Bruce Jenner. Together they spend a disproportionate amount of time yelling at each other, pawing at their hair extensions, partying in Vegas and shilling an astonishing volume of merchandise, from Sears diffusion lines to unnecessary tell-all memoirs.

The premise of the latest series is that -- for reasons unexplained to the viewer -- LA-based sisters Kim and Kourtney "Take New York," by way of rolling their LV luggage into a penthouse for an extended stay at the Gansevoort Park Avenue.

For those lucky enough to be unfamiliar, the Gansevoort Park Avenue is one of those soul-sucking hip hotels with played-out Alice-In-Wonderland sensory-overload aesthetics, replete with bright purple regency chairs and disco ball-inspired chandeliers. Why anyone would choose to stay there while not roofied is a mystery.

Undeterred, newlyweds Kim and Kris Humphries, Kim's sister Kourtney, Kourtney's boyfriend Scott Disick (a smooth Hollywood gadabout with anger management issues who ascribes to the American Psycho school of male grooming) and their 2-year-old toddler, Mason, all move into a two-story suite.

Why would these presumably well-off couples not get separate residences?

Because that would leave us, the audience, without the thrill of seeing Kris Humphries walk in on Kourtney's naked yoga session, deeming the instructor (a good-natured rasta guy) "disgusting" and ordering "antibacterial spray" to be administered in his wake. Klassy! We would not get to witness the aftermath of Kourtney's holistic enema on the Humphries' martial bed. Nor would we behold Kris' bummer keg parties or barely concealed rage at toddler Mason's habit of waking up an hour -- a whole hour -- before he is due at the gym.

But the "A" story here is the swift unraveling of Kim and Kris' marriage. In one scene, Kris steps on Kim with his caveman-foot, ruining her pedicure, which becomes a huge screaming deal. There's a deep sense of foreboding when that toenail cracks, and it's not just contemplating the cost of a logo-embossed gel replacement. You know this couple is doomed, you know from The Today Show, but you also know instinctively, watching his lack of remorse, her off-the-charts self-absorption. When Kris later informs Kim "by the time we have kids nobody will care about you anyway" it's really cruel but also probably true, and isn't the whole point of marriage to distract your partner from all the cruel truths -- as opposed to pointing them out on national television?

This is insidious trash, not to be enjoyed as a guilty-pleasure or observed as a "let's look at celebrities-in-a-fishbowl" anthropological pursuit. It's uniquely, metaphysically bad because you are actually watching a relationship deconstruct before your eyes -- a relationship that was, ostensibly, built for your eyes.

Granted... the two of them seem to have (shudder, death rattle) physical chemistry and a sort of sophomoric flirting attentiveness. The enterprise is not completely devoid of authentic moments. But they do seem like depressing people to think much about or devote time to observing or, God forbid, to emulate or admire. This is, above all, a commercial endeavor, the deepest sort of selling-out one can do.

Before my untimely demise my husband and I lived in Tribeca, not far from the Dash store in Soho, and often I would see exhausted sets of Midwestern parents watching their pre-teen daughters taking pictures of the storefront.

Once again: taking pictures of the storefront.

Let that sink into your mortal heads. With everything there is to see and do and experience in New York, from architectural triumphs to art and entertainment both high and low, vibrant street culture and crazy happenings around every corner, the youth of America trains their iPhone eye on this temple of sequined mini-dresses?

What I urge you, with all that is left in me, is to not make my mistake. To look away. This holiday season, and all the time, really, mindfully engage with your friends and family. Look up from your various screens. Ask grandma a question! I know, it's totally hard, but try. The only thing giving these shameless sylphs of consumption their strength -- their very existence -- is your attention.
