Hoosiers face off against in-state rival Butler

·

After a weekend at the Service Academics Classic in Millington, Tenn., where IU came out 2-1, the Hoosiers come home to face Butler, scheduled for a 3 p.m. start today at Sembower Field. All eyes will be on senior outfielder and pitcher Joe Kemp as he tries to extend his 2004 hitting streak to 12 games. Last week Kemp was named Big Ten Conference Player of the Week. In the four games the Hoosiers have played, Kemp went 6-for-17 -- a .353 batting average -- including two home runs, seven RBIs and five runs scored.

Rock Steady

·

The fifth annual Hip-Hop Awareness Festival kicked off Feb. 22 in full force as hip-hoppers from across the nation flooded Bloomington to take advantage of a week of hip-hop culture. "The Art of Rhyme," a documentary film on the art of freestyling and battle rapping, began the week Feb. 22. A lecture by Afeni Shakur, activist and rapper Tupac Shakur's mother, and actress Jasmine Guy attracted a packed IU Auditorium Feb. 23. The event foreshadowed the success of the weeklong event, which included a poetry slam with guest poets Psalm One and Thaione Davis from Chicago.

Concert extends tradition another year

·

Soprano Virginia LeBlanc emerged from the wing of Recital Hall in the IU School of Music. She walked humbly, with heels lightly clicking on the wooden floor, to the center of the stage, where she was accompanied by Brad Whiteley on piano performing four sections of the piece: "Fret Not," "Clean Hands," "Whom Shall I Fear" and "New Song."

Experts: Settlement makes sense for Kobe

·

DENVER -- Experts believe a settlement between Kobe Bryant and the woman who has accused him of rape makes the most sense for both sides because it allows them to avoid a potentially embarrassing trial that would bring out intimate details of their lives. ABC News Radio reported Tuesday that the NBA star and his 20-year-old accuser have reached an agreement in principle, with a settlement possible as early as this week.

ESPN shows Charlotte loss 'a mistake'

·

MADISON, Wis. -- If the Hoosiers' recent string of success before Tuesday's loss at Wisconsin wasn't an indicator that things were going IU's way come March, then ESPN helped the team out a bit.

Robert Randolph blows Axis crowd away

·

He wears a cowboy hat, has the baby face of Indiana Pacer Jermaine O'Neal, the smirk of rapper 50 Cent and man, can Robert Randolph wail on the slide guitar. He plays it with such simplicity you'd swear he was jamming on a plastic Fisher Price instrument.

Money for nothing

·

Every college student knows money doesn't grow on trees. It's hard enough for some students to tackle looming utility, textbook and rent bills head on, let alone handle the pressures of fronting the bill for yearly climbing tuition costs. So how do students manage to indulge in pleasurable pursuits, on top of their other expenses? Where there is a will, there is a way.

Burning down the 'House'

·

"Man of the House" is bad. Very, very bad. I take that back. Popcorn-flavored jelly beans are bad. This movie is a crime against humanity.

'Diary' equal parts muddled, masterful

·

Yes it's mushy, clichéd and over-the-top, but writer Tyler Perry's "Diary of a Mad Black Woman" has heart. This crowd-pleaser is based on one of Perry's seven highly successful plays and judging simply from the cheers and laughter from the audience, he did something right.

New Craven flick 'Cursed' with PG-13 rating

·

Ah, to live the life of a werewolf. Increased senses, improved athletic ability, more sex appeal. If it weren't for the minor details of a lust for blood and all the hair, it might be worth it. That's the lesson learned after watching "Cursed."

Feminist rocker goes FM

·

The good news is that my stuffy old Aunt Helen may now be able to be a Tori Amos fan. Good job, Tori, you've won over a convert. The bad news is that she's dangerously close to losing a longtime fan: me. The problem with The Beekeeper is typical to many artists who, once they get older, are too scared of alienating their fans to do something truly new.
