Hoosiers serve up grand slam during victory

By Joel Sanders and Joel Sansers · Tuesday, March 6,2007 12 a.m.

The weather in Carbondale, Ill., may have been too cold to play in, but the Hoosiers’ offense heated up at just the right time. Sophomore infielder Stephanie Pellerito hit a grand slam in the sixth inning, as the Hoosiers (3-4) rallied for a 6-2 win Sunday against Ball State, splitting two games at the Kay Brechtelsbaur Southern Classic. The Hoosiers were defeated by Western Illinois by the same score Saturday.

Photography exhibit at BCT reflects evolution of television

By Lauren Younis · Tuesday, March 6,2007 12 a.m.

It’s no small task to examine how vulnerable individuals have become to the mass media that saturates our lives on a daily basis, but Bloomington artist Brian Chase has come convincingly close. And he has photos to prove it. Chase’s most recent exhibit, “Tube Fed,” is a collection of 12 black-and-white photographs that reflects the evolution of television from innocent invention to media machine. Central to the theme of the collection are figures of both male and female nudes, seemingly captured in empty rooms with nothing but televisions before them.

Daylight saving dates change; energy conservation remains

By Abdullah AlShihri · Tuesday, March 6,2007 12 a.m.

Benjamin Franklin, while a minister to France, first suggested the idea of daylight saving time in an essay titled “An Economical Project for Diminishing the Cost of Light.” That was in an essay published in the Journal de Paris in April 1784. But it was more than a century before an Englishman, William Willett, suggested it again, in 1907.

By Scott Leadingham · Tuesday, March 6,2007 12 a.m.

Life has a funny way of crapping on us when we least expect it. (So do birds, but a little shotgun action takes care of that problem. It’s much harder to punish life for taking a big No. 2 all over our aspirations.)

By Aaron Beard · Tuesday, March 6,2007 12 a.m.

MIAMI – Dwyane Wade’s dislocated left shoulder is so fragile there’s a risk of aggravating the injury when he sleeps. But come April, Wade figures he might be up to the rigors of the NBA playoffs. The All-Star guard said Monday he has decided to delay surgery and rehabilitate his shoulder with the goal of returning to help the Miami Heat defend their league title.

Impressed with blood

By Aparna Venkatraman · Tuesday, March 6,2007 12 a.m.

Scantily clad women. Arson. Average Joes beating the crap out of each other. Characters urinating on cop cars. No, this isn’t just your run-of-the-mill weekend debauchery. This is the content of many of today’s video games, which lawmakers fear might influence the behavior of the impressionable young people who take in these images day after day.

Online Only: Excuse my French

By Matt Peyton · Tuesday, March 6,2007 12 a.m.

Amid the always-busy week leading up to spring break, it has dawned on me that I don’t speak a lick of French. Usually this wouldn’t be a problem (it also occurred to me that I don’t speak Arabic), except I’m going to Paris for spring break.
