House combats dog attacks

Tuesday, April 3,2001 11:57 p.m.

The law would apply only to persons carrying out duties required by law. The bill, authored by Sen. Vi Simpson, D-Ellettsville, was prompted by the death of a Brown County woman last June. Dorothy Stewart, a U.S. Census worker, was attacked and killed by a pack of dogs on the property of the dogs' owners.

By Jeffrey Weingartner · Tuesday, April 3,2001 11:51 p.m.

After reading Matt Csanyi's article on Little 500 ("Little 500: The stupidist IU tradition," March 28) and hearing a lot of negative response, I feel someone has to come to his side. I will not defend everything he says -- for a lot of people the race is meaningful and important -- but let's remember the fans.

Your company's name and logo here

By Rob Gubitz and Ron Gubitz · Tuesday, April 3,2001 11:49 p.m.

Deer Creek has changed its name to Verizon Wireless Music Center. Irvine Meadows in Irvine, Calif., was also renamed Verizon Wireless Music Center. I am confused. If I buy a ticket to see a show this summer at Verizon Wireless Music Center and I want to see it in Noblesville, Ind., how do I know I am getting the right ticket?

NRA, unload your guns

By Matt Csanyi · Tuesday, April 3,2001 11:46 p.m.

The Senate passed Senator John McCain's campaign finance reform legislation Monday, restricting the amount of money various individuals and groups would be allowed to donate as "soft money." This is good news. It is especially good news for those of us who favor increased gun control. Why? Because one group, the National Rifle Association, notorious for buying gun-friendly candidate's victories, will see its dark grip on national politics eased.

The Academy has some explaining to do

By Mandy Hyndman · Tuesday, April 3,2001 12:56 a.m.

Someone please explain to me how it is that "Gladiator" walked away proudly with the most highly recognized if not most publicized award in the film industry? Unlike the Academy (it appears), I watched some of the other films that were nominated for Best Picture -- and I promise "Gladiator"'s win was a mistake.
