Memories make the Golden Age

By Keiara Carr · Sunday, Dec. 13,2009 9:19 p.m.

By Therese Kennelly · Sunday, Dec. 13,2009 9:16 p.m.

From double-jointed break dancers to acrobats performing death-defying acts, “Cirque Dreams Illumination” provided a visual feast to a packed house Friday at the IU Auditorium.

Precious - and perfect

By Brian Welk · Sunday, Dec. 13,2009 9:09 p.m.

 “Precious” is the most heart-wrenching drama of the year, and it is such a shame that there is an audience of people too afraid and uncomfortable to face drama, even in the event of a happy ending, if it is too pure and close to reality.

Taming the scandal

Sunday, Dec. 13,2009 9 p.m.

Congress complains in vain

By Ben Smith · Sunday, Dec. 13,2009 8:59 p.m.

In early November, the Indiana Memorial Union was host to a conference titled “State-Building in the Contemporary Islamic World: U.S. Intervention in Iraq and Afghanistan,” where diplomats, scholars and activists gathered to discuss the bleak future of democracy in those countries over tea and coffee cake.

What I have learned

By Stephen Hammoor · Sunday, Dec. 13,2009 8:56 p.m.

As a sophomore with only one semester of experience in the newsroom at the Indiana Daily Student, I thought it would be interesting to look back over these past few months and find out what I have learned through my online comments so I can apply them to my future.

The atheist Boogieman

By Matt Straw · Sunday, Dec. 13,2009 8:54 p.m.

lost

Never better

By John Barnett · Sunday, Dec. 13,2009 6:11 p.m.

I could easily squander the next 350+ words talking about "Lost"'s fifth season by spewing superlatives like an open wound. I figure, though, that my time would be much better spent explaining why the series is on the creative and aesthetic high it’s on at the moment.

We the Kings

Too smiley

By Cory Barker · Sunday, Dec. 13,2009 2:03 p.m.

We The Kings are brought of the latest swell of power pop bands (Boys Like Girls, The Maine) that have made it kind-of big recently, but they’re certainly the worst of the lot. Every single one of their songs sounds and leaves you feeling exactly the same.

princess

A match made in marketing

By Brent Williamson · Sunday, Dec. 13,2009 2:02 p.m.

Well, it certainly isn’t “The Lion King”. Disney’s latest hand animated venture, “The Princess and the Frog” is their first non-CGI film since the disastrous “Home on the Range” of 2004. While Disney would have you believe that this is the return of the classic animated films of yesteryear, it is a transparent attempt to add an African-American princess to all their merchandise.

By Cory Barker · Sunday, Dec. 13,2009 1:48 p.m.

30 Seconds to Mars, actor Jared Leto’s band, haven’t released an album in four years, and during that time they were seemingly being “reborn” both spiritually and musically – as a mediocre band.
