Geting into mixing music

·

With a bottle of Crystal in one hand, his girlfriend by his side and thousands of people cheering for him, Mike Love knew he was living his dream. It was last New Year's Eve when Love, known to most as DJ Quikmix, realized that everything he had worked so hard for was finally staring him in the face. His family has pictures of him holding a mic when he was only three. His father was in a band, so having equipment to play music with was never a problem. Love was in the sixth grade when he threw his first party.

·

It's Friday night in Bloomington and the guys of Run of the Mill are just getting ready to rehearse for their upcoming CD release party. After only nine months, the band has come a long way from late-night discussions about coulda, shoulda and woulda in the dorm rooms of keyboardist Ryan Bruick, 22, and frontman Chris Isom, 21.

Police consider radar for Behrman search

Ground-penetrating radar may be the newest tool used to find the body of missing IU student Jill Behrman. At a Wednesday afternoon press conference near Salt Creek, investigators said they are consulting with the IU Geological Department and with crews on site about the possibility of using radar to find Behrman, who disappeared while riding her bike in May of 2000.

IUPD investigating reported date rape

·

IU Police Department is investigating a report of rape in Forest Quad last week. A female IU student told police she was raped by someone she knew Sept. 11. She reported the crime to police Sunday. "It was acquaintance rape," Detective Tim Lewis said. "The person was known to the victim, and we're still investigating." Police said the rape occurred in the victim's room on the afternoon of Sept. 11. Police have made no arrests, but since the victim did know her attacker, the police do have a suspect. Lewis warns about the dangers of acquaintance rape.

Center prepared for virus

·

There's sure a lot of fuss over a mosquito. As the West Nile Virus continues to spread nationwide, some IU students are worried that what was a harmless mosquito bite, could become deadly. In Indiana, 57 people are inflicted with the disease; two people have died. The fatality rate from infection ranges from three to 15 percent. One in 150 cases results in severe neurological disease, occurring mostly with the elderly, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Web site.

'Vote Hard' stalls out

·

The $50,000 Corvette bought by the IU Student Association to entice Bloomington students to vote in November's election is now the top prize of a University-wide raffle. Student Body President Bill Gray said Tuesday that students now aren't required to vote to enter the contest to win the cream and crimson sports car. The decision comes as legal experts and an Indiana election officer question whether Project Vote Hard breaks federal election law, which prohibits anyone from knowingly paying, offering to pay or accepting payment for registering to vote or voting.

Inner-conflict disturbs some Catholic clergy

·

Rudolph Kos. Gilbert Gauthe. James Porter. Paul Shanley. John J. Geoghan. Ronald H. Paquin. The list goes on. Their commonalities? All were accused of sexually abusing minors. And all were priests within the Catholic faith. The diagnosis to the ailment that seems to be plaguing America's Catholic churches varies as some say immaturity among priests is the problem. Others say homosexuality is too prevalent among the leaders of the faith. And while some say it's a direct result of these men having fallen victim to molestation as minors themselves (those in the list above were said to have been sexually abused as minors), one thing is for certain -- these acts against youths have had lasting effects.

U.N. Security Council discusses Iraq timetable

·

UNITED NATIONS -- The U.N. Security Council met Tuesday to discuss Iraq, a day after Baghdad offered to admit U.N. weapons inspectors without conditions -- a concession made under the threat of U.S. military action and pressure from Arab states. The chief U.N. weapons inspector, Hans Blix, was to meet later Tuesday with Iraqi officials to discuss "practical arrangements" for the return of international weapons inspectors to Baghdad, U.N. spokesman Fred Eckhard announced.

Donation with a catch

·

IU graduate and Cisco System's CEO John Chambers recently donated $1 million to the Kelley School of Business. The money comes with a catch: Create an innovative program for its students that puts MBA students side by side with a start-up company's highest executives. "This is absolutely revolutionary," said Dan Dalton, the Kelley School's dean. "There is no other institute we know of with a comparable program." The new program allows students to work with emerging entrepreneurial companies during its earliest stages.

Alumnus plays for charity

·

Rain glittered in front of bright spotlights while IU students clapped and bobbed their heads to the loud music in the backyard of the new fraternity Phi Kappa Sigma. On Tuesday night, the fraternity and the Alpha Xi Delta sorority hosted a benefit for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society by inviting several bands to play. This was the first concert ever thrown during Men's Rush Week at IU. Bands and singers who took part included IU freshman Ryan Cook, DePauw University freshman Dave McMillin, a band tentatively named The Andy Long Experience and the long-awaited local celebrity Rich Hardesty.

New student group focuses on unity

·

In a powerful demonstration of symbolism, Vice President of Academic Support and Diversity Charlie Nelms pulled out a rope and began to tie it around his waist. "When those miners in Pennsylvania were trapped, they decided they were all going to live, or they were all going to die," Nelms said as he bound himself and some students to the rope. "We have to commit ourselves to each other's success. That's the pact I am asking you to sign."

Hoosiers respond to new coach with wins

·

Sometimes change and adversity can tear a team apart. For this year's IU women's soccer team, just the opposite has happened. After a disappointing season last year, Athletics Director Michael McNeely brought in a new coaching staff and the Hoosier women entered the 2002 preseason not knowing what to expect. "I feel like (the transition) has brought us a lot closer. We knew we had to work as a team to get better," sophomore midfielder Kim Grodek said. "We've had to work a lot harder this year."

California combo

·

These days, the song "I Wish They All Could Be California Girls" has probably taken on a whole new meaning for field hockey coach Amy Robertson. Robertson said she has been happy with her team's overall play of late and has seen two California bred freshman, back Morgan Albini and midfielder Lesley Wiler make significant contributions to the squad. "The great thing for them is they're getting more experience than most freshmen," Robertson said. "They're two players that will greatly influence our future success."

Columnists unite

·

Some people may complain that sports get boring when they see the Lakers, Yankees or Red Wings play for the championship every year. Change is good after all. Often times, these people mean no ill will; they just want to see somebody different. Often times, they do. ("Shaq travels or commits a foul every time he gets the ball." To which I say, "Yeah, yeah, yeah.") If we are willing to address change in the outcome of competition, then we sports columnists need to change the impression of the way we live, breathe and interpret sports.

After season ending injury, Mack is back

·

Last season, the men's soccer team ended their season one game away from the NCAA championships playing without one of their stars. Now, senior Ryan Mack is back, and wants to help lead the Hoosiers back to the title game. Mack's season ended prematurely last year due to a torn anterior cruciate ligament, leaving a hole in the midfield. Mack's return could complete the puzzle for the Hoosiers to return to championship glory from 1998 and 1999 in Mack's freshman and sophomore years. Already this season, following the Hoosier's defeat of Hartwick and Air Force in the Butler Classic last weekend, Mack was named to the College Soccer News National Team of the Week.

DiNardo ready for next game

·

He said he was pleased the team was able to do the things well that they had emphasized in practice this week, including stronger effort from the offensive line.

Back to school

·

It's 12:30 p.m. and Jeff Cannon walks out the doors of Ernie Pyle Hall into the bright sunshine. He is finished with class for the day, but he doesn't turn toward the Union to grab a burger and discuss last night's parties with his classmates. Nor does he head back to the dorms to add to an MP3 collection and watch reruns of the "Real World." Instead, he heads to a car just outside the Journalism School where Cannon's wife, Angie, and two daughters, 3-year-old Emma and 8-month-old Abby, wait to greet him after a day at school.

IU playwrights seek Masters

·

Within the next couple of months, two IU Master of Fine Arts playwright students will have their original works performed to the benefit of the Bloomington community. Jonathan Yukich, in his second year of the MFA program, has written and will also direct his work entitled "The Mime Crime." The play tells the story of a mime who commits a murder in broad daylight.
