It ain't over until 'she' sings

·

Four and a half minutes. Four and a half minutes and IU's season could have been wrapped up with a nice little bow and shipped out to sea. And then I saw it. The one thing every sports fan fears for his/her respective time.

Door closing on diplomatic solution

North Korea announced Feb. 10 that it has successfully developed a nuclear weapon. For the past decade, North Korea was suspected of trying to produce these weapons, and it confirmed this effort during negotiations in 2003. At that time, the United States estimated North Korea had produced, or had the ability to create, only a small number of these weapons.

Black noise

·

Some people belong on T-shirts; other folks just wear them. It's personal accounts like IU alumna Nazeeha TruAysia's that make me want to fulfill my political action potential and end up on somebody's T-shirt, like Bob Marley or Angela Davis.

Fee for all free-for-all

·

In Wednesday's IDS, the political parties vying in this week's IUSA election gave their positions regarding the $30 athletics fee. Some parties, citing the fact that we get nothing in return for the money except (hopefully) $2 million worth of gratitude from the athletics department, suggest T-shirts for compensation. Others, noting that the fee was imposed on IU students without sufficient consultation or due process, are pressing for more "dialogue" next time around.

Seniors say goodbye at final home meet

·

Tonight marks a sad goodbye for seniors Mike Simpson and Pat DeGain as they take the mat at University Gym for the last time. The Hoosiers take on Purdue at 7 p.m. tonight. Sunday will be their final regular season meet as IU travels to Iowa for a showdown with the Hawkeyes. Both have had years marked by missed time -- Simpson missed several weeks with a head injury and the flu, and DeGain has missed the last two weekends of competition with an injured shoulder. Both wrestlers stressed their desires to get one last victory in front of the Hoosier faithful. "The way I go out is more important than any dual meet in the last two years," Simpson said. "It's great to beat Purdue anywhere, but at home would be the best."
