Police investigating repeated car break-ins

By Michael Zennie · Monday, Aug. 8,2005 5:22 a.m.

Three vehicles were broken into Wednesday night in the parking lot of the Campus View Apartments. All three had similar methods of entry, said IU Police Department Lt. Jerry Minger. The cars all had windows broken and marks on the dash from where the thief apparently attempted to pry the stereos out. The cars had significant damage but very little was actually stolen, Minger said. A small amount of change was reported stolen from one car and a cell phone was stolen from another.

Where are they now?

By Alyson Brodsy and Jordan Majewski · Monday, Aug. 8,2005 4:16 a.m.

For this week's column, I decided to do something a little different. I tracked down five sports figures who are remembered not for their heroic feats, but rather for their high-profile meltdowns when the spotlight was shining brightly on them. I thought I should check on their well-being, and to see if they had undergone a sex change, a la Ray Finkle in Ace Ventura.

Video games attract composers

By Ryan Pearson · Monday, Aug. 8,2005 4 a.m.

LOS ANGELES -- Violinists playing sweetly beneath her, the video game heroine Lara Croft has two guns blazing and the full attention of 10,000 people at the Hollywood Bowl. The animated star of "Tomb Raider" games, which have collectively sold more than 30 million copies, unflinchingly braves explosions on a giant TV screen that hangs, incongruously, above the Los Angeles Philharmonic orchestra.

Out of tunes

By Alyson Brodsy and Brian J. McFillen · Monday, Aug. 8,2005 12:53 a.m.

In one of The White Stripes' particularly creepy songs, "You've Got Her In Your Pocket," Jack White sings: "To keep you in my pocket / Where there's no way out now / Put it in a safe and lock it / 'cause it's home sweet home."
