Hoosiers blow out Cincinnati 16-4 in away game

·

After his team’s 3-2 win against Minnesota last Saturday, junior catcher Josh Phegley said his biggest concern was a lack of early scoring in games. His teammates responded against Cincinnati on Wednesday night, as the Hoosiers scored five runs in the first inning en route to a 16-4 victory. The win was IU’s third in a row and brings their season record to 10-15.

The 7 deadly sings of coffeeshop etiquette

·

I am a total coffee snob. I admit it. I’ve worked at Angles Café and Gift Shop in the IU Art Museum for almost four years now, and it’s turned me into one of those people. I have a ban on being spoken to until my first cup of free trade organic coffee has been consumed. I don’t drink anything at Starbucks that hasn’t been drowned in sugar and syrup, lest I taste the burning fires of their over-roasted beans. I love my regulars at Angles – they are the polite, friendly, cheerful people that every slinger of joe wishes they could interact with. However, there are a few things every snooty barista will silently judge you for.


A comeback of sorts

After achieving mainstream success with 2002’s “Sticks and Stones” and 2004’s “Catalyst” and driving the pop-punk revolution, New Found Glory created a more pop-oriented sound for 2006’s “Coming Home,” which angered longtime fans but enchanted critics with its maturity.
