Who stole all the special features?

By Mark Perlman and Mark Perlman-Price · Thursday, April 21,2005 12 a.m.

"Ocean's Twelve," Steven Soderbergh's recent follow-up to the 2001 remake, "Ocean's Eleven," was a box-office hit and now it's looking to gain some more cash on DVD. The hype and familiarity of a sequel always guarantees a good audience, and "Ocean's Twelve" didn't disappoint; mainly because Soderbergh didn't try to stray from the formula that proved successful in the first film.

By Steve Slivka · Wednesday, April 20,2005 2:22 a.m.

The Mexican U-17 National Team stopped IU's attempt at a perfect spring slate.

It has been more than two weeks since the IU baseball team has seen home. It seems that much time away from Sembower Field has taken a toll on the Hoosiers. IU was smothered by Ball State 17-4 Tuesday at Diamond Field. The 19-16 Hoosiers dropped their fourth game in their last five and come home with a 3-9 conference record heading into Big Ten play this weekend.

Students enrolled in the College of Arts and Sciences might be surprised to discover a different set of rules than the rest of the Bloomington campus if they violate the student codes of academic misconduct at IU. Matt Dattilo, associate director for public relations for the IU Student Association Department of Student Rights, is challenging COAS' policy, which does not allow advisers to speak on a student's behalf at a formal misconduct hearing.

By Adam Aasen · Wednesday, April 20,2005 1:32 a.m.

In a Little 500 weekend which featured a race, a spring football game and my 21st birthday, the highlight for me was seeing my favorite hip-hop group: the Roots.

By Andrew Smith and Drew Smith · Wednesday, April 20,2005 1:30 a.m.

On a cold, windy night April 11 at Evan Williams Field on 10th Street, the Hoosiers used crisp, direct passing and tough man-to-man defense to bring down Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology 24-0.

The modern-day Tarzan and Jane are alive, well and living in Monroe County.
