You say you want a RedVolution

By Annysa LaMantia and Anyssa LaMantia · Friday, Oct. 13,2006 3:35 p.m.

At 5 years old, most kids are worried about GI Joes. But when William Brawner was that age, he was worried about popping pills and keeping secrets. Brawner was the keynote speaker at "RedVolution" Wednesday night at the Buskirk-Chumley Theater, a benefit for Bloomington Hospital's Positive Link Emergency Care Fund, which provides free services for people with HIV/AIDS. The event also was aimed at raising awareness about HIV/AIDS in the black community.

By Matt Mattucci · Friday, Oct. 13,2006 12:27 p.m.

Kadour Ziani wakes up everyday in an unfamiliar place, but with a familiar desire. He wants to dunk a basketball, and he wants to do it in a way that people will always remember. The 5-foot-11, 33-year-old Ziani has become famous for his dunks in contests he's participated in across the world and says he's a celebrity in his native France. Ziani recently arrived in Bloomington -- which he called the "basketball capital of the world" -- with no money but a lifetime's worth of riches. He's not looking for money or fame, though. All he wants to do is share his abilities and philosophies with the world.

Satanic rap, anyone?

By Alyson Brodsy and Stefania Marghitu · Friday, Oct. 13,2006 11:44 a.m.

For the past few years, there have been countless rumors regarding Three 6 Mafia's alleged Satanic affiliation. None of these speculations, however, have been fully validated. Out of my love for the group, and overall curiosity on the subject, I decided to do some investigation.

Hardy always on the move

By Jake Brown and Jacob Brown · Friday, Oct. 13,2006 1:14 a.m.

Keeping track of sophomore wide receiver James Hardy during a game isn't easy. One play he's split wide right. The next play he's in the slot on the left. Next time he's in the slot on the right only to be split wide left the next drive. That is exactly how Hardy spent last week's game against Illinois. He moved across the formation throughout the game, barely lining up in the same spot twice in a row. He went on to have his best statistical game of the season, catching five balls for 67 yards.

By Alyson Brodsy · Friday, Oct. 13,2006 1:10 a.m.

Landis is scheduled to go before an arbitration panel in January or February and formally appeal doping violations that could cost him his Tour de France and impose a two-year ban. Rather than wait several months to present his defense in a public form, portions of the case were posted on his Web site, www.floydlandis.com.
