Sophomore guard Kevin “Yogi” Ferrell talks with the coaching staff from the court during the game against Penn State on Wednesday in Assembly Hall. Ferrell led the Hoosiers with 16 points, but the team lost its lead within the last few minutes. The final score was 66-65 in favor of the Nittany Lions.

IU blows 11-point lead during final minutes against Penn State BY JOHN BAUERNFEIND jogbauer@indiana.edu
With two minutes and nine seconds remaining in the second half, graduate student guard Evan Gordon hit one of two free throws to give the IU men’s basketball team (14-10, 4-7) a 65-56 lead over the Penn State Nittany Lions (13-12, 4-8). By the time the final buzzer sounded, the Hoosiers committed four turnovers and two fouls — all while failing to record a single point as the Nittany Lions stormed back to win in front of a comatose Assembly Hall. In his postgame press conference, IU Coach Tom Crean said his team’s mistakes allowed Penn State to remain competitive and ultimately win the game. “Because we made too many mistakes along the way that allowed them to stay in it,” Crean said. “We lost this game defensively by allowing them to stay in it with mistakes, and then the pressure of the game got to us a little bit.” After he made his free
throw, Gordon checked out for freshman guard Stanford Robinson, who fouled Penn State’s Tim Frazier three seconds later and 40 feet from the basket. With Penn State in the bonus, Frazier hit both free throws, trimming IU’s lead to seven. The Hoosiers then turned the ball over on the inbounds play, which was just one of its 20 turnovers in the game. Seven seconds after the turnover, Brandon Taylor connected on a 3-pointer with one minute and 59 seconds to play to cut IU’s lead to 65-61. On IU’s next possession, Gordon had an open look from beyond the arc, but his shot missed. Geno Thorpe snatched the rebound, igniting a transition run for Penn State that led to a made jumper by Taylor. IU’s lead narrowed to 65-63 with one minute and seven seconds remaining. Ferrell ran the shot clock down at the top of the key, but after trying to get IU’s
Attorneys for the two men being sued in federal court by the parents of missing IU student Lauren Spierer filed motions Tuesday opposing a protective order that would keep evidence private. The Spierers requested the order Jan. 29 to prevent the ongoing investigation into their daughter’s disappearance from being compromised. Rob and Charlene Spierer want District Judge Tanya Walton Pratt to issue the protective order to seal “sensitive and private information” in the case. The Spierers filed a civil suit last May against Jason Rosenbaum and Corey Rossman, who were among the last people seen with Lauren the night she disappeared, June 3, 2011.

Board of Trustees to meet Thursday, Friday BY KATHRINE SCHULZE schulzek@indiana.edu
The first IU Board of Trustees meeting of the year will discuss library renovations and privatized parking for the next fiscal year. It will begin Thursday and continue through Friday at IUPUI. Philip N. Eskew Jr., the chair of the facilities and auxiliaries committee for the board of trustees, will deliver a report on proposed renovations to the Herman B Wells Library, according to the trustees’ agenda. “The media room is being renovated simply because it needs upgrading,” Eskew said. The report, which Eskew said will be approved by the trustees at the meeting Friday, calls for a renovation of approximately 10,000 square feet of existing film and media archive space. “But it’s really to protect all of our media records and our archives, and SEE TRUSTEES, PAGE 6

leased her debut album, “My Story,” in 2012. It includes sections entitled “Tickling,” “Barfing” and “Balls.” Corry, who doesn’t like defining her comedic style, simply calls it storytelling. “If you think it’s funny, then it’s funny,” Corry said. “Some of it’s personal, some of it’s observational — just good, old-fashioned storytelling.” Corry describes her introduction to comedy as the moment “when I came out of my mother’s womb thinking ... what is this? Some kind of joke?” After moving to Los Angeles to host her own HBO one-woman show, “Have you Ever Been Called a Dwarf?” Corry began performing at a number of different comedy clubs. “The ‘good’ decisions I’ve made

When asked by First Order Historians about her status as a female comedian, her response was similarly straightforward. “I hate the term ‘female comedian,’” she said. “Funny is funny.

‘Cupcakes and Condoms’ Health Center, Planned Parenthood encourage positive, safe sex BY ANTHONY BRODERICK aebroder@indiana.edu
A long line formed in front of the Indiana Memorial Union’s Frangipani Room Wednesday, full of people ready for cupcakes and a lesson about condoms. IU Health Center’s Health and Wellness education program and Planned Parenthood of Indiana and Kentucky organized the informative event “Cupcakes and Condoms” to encourage a positive attitude toward condoms and safe sex. Cupcakes were provided for everyone. The event was created and conducted by Planned Parenthood educator and trainer Jasmine Utterback. “The primary goal for ‘Cupcakes and Condoms’ is to encourage condom use and discuss topics that students don’t have enough information on,” Utterback said. “There are so many important things we wanted to talk about, since sometimes younger individuals engage in sexual activity without being heavily informed.” The event consisted of

various interactive and educational stations. At some stands, IU Health professionals informed students on topics such as the history of and myths about condoms, the value of lubricants and female condoms. “Most people in this age group have probably never
seen or are aware of female condoms,” Utterback said. “There are a lot of important guidelines about protection used for activities like oral sex.” There were also interactive exercises like touchand-feel condom displays with instructions about the processes of putting on and
working a condom with the help of lubricant. Each stand gave away different brands of condoms for students to test. All of the condoms were donated to IU by Planned Parenthood. Workers at the stands encouraged lubricant use over oils, since it usually prevents condom breakage and offers more pleasure in sexual intercourse. “Condoms have a 98 percent rate of effectiveness, so the breakage is mostly because of improper fit,” IU Health and Wellness worker Pat Nagel said. The event included informative games at some of the select stations to further test students’ knowledge of the sizes, types and textures of condoms from all over the world. “You really want the right-sized condom and the right lubricant in order to be safe and responsible when it comes to being sexually engaged,” Nagel said.

Hutton makes formal recommendation for new dean BY ANNA HYZY akhyzy@indiana.edu
The search committee for the new dean of the Hutton Honors College made its formal recommendation to the provost early this week. After a long search process, there were three final candidates — Maria Bucur, associate dean of the College of Arts and Sciences ; Andrea Ciccarelli, chair for the department of French and Italian; and Fritz Breithaupt, who has served as interim dean since July. “We look forward with eagerness to one of our great colleagues that will make a wonderful new dean,” said Dennis Groth, interim vice provost for undergraduate education and chair of the search committee. Groth added, though the committee has made a
recommendation, how long it takes the provost to respond is out of their hands. The committee of 12 was composed of two students and 10 IU faculty members. “Having students on the committee and seeking their input has been a very important principle for us,” Groth said. The two students on the committee were Michael Jancovich, a senior majoring in biology, neuroscience and Spanish and Kristin Froehle, a senior in the Kelley School of Business majoring in business, economics and public policy. Both were asked to join based on their significant involvement in Hutton student organizations such as the Hutton Honors College Association. “I feel like they’ve really made an effort to include the student voice, and I’m
appreciative of that,” Jancovich said. Aside from having two student committee members, Hutton staged town hall meetings open to the public and sent surveys to all honors students to gather a more widespread student response. Froehle said student perception of candidates was something she often considered while on the committee. She highlighted the importance of the town hall meetings. The meetings have been beneficial during previous dean searches on IU’s campus. “It’s really good to have a more holistic response from students,” she said. Groth said the committee received what he would consider an excellent response from the student
surveys, adding that the committee takes all comments seriously. Jancovich said since the dean is an advocate for students, the student voice is necessary, as is the dean’s focus on students. “My primary metric has been engagement with students, someone who’s really going to reach out to students, listen to their needs, advocate for them,” Jancovich said. Now, the conclusion of the search lies in the hands of the provost. “For these types of searches, after we’ve submitted our recommendation, we wait to see if there’s anything else we can do,” Groth said.

Chris Herren, a former NBA player, spoke to an audience replete with IU student athletes Tuesday. Herren, who was featured in the ESPN documentary “Unguarded,” told his story of overcoming substance abuse in the Heinke Hall of Champions in Memorial Stadium. He delivered his message to what he said was his preferred audience. “Where I want to be most is in front of student athletes,” he said. For an hour, Herren recounted his life story to a jam-packed audience. In high school, he said he drank and smoked marijuana. As his life progressed, so did his drug use, and he jumped from cocaine to oxycontin to heroin. At Durfee High School in Fall River, Mass., Herren was an All-America basketball star and had the opportunity to attend any college. He chose Boston College. During his first semester, Herren’s head coach brought in someone to speak to the team about substance abuse. “I heard way too many speakers about substance abuse, and it’s a waste of time,” Herren said. ”I truly believed I was above it.” Directly after one of these talks, Herren returned to his dorm room. When he opened the door, his roommate and a woman, both freshmen student athletes, were snorting cocaine. Herren turned to exit the room, but the woman told him to come back. That was the first time he did cocaine. “At 18 years old, I promised myself one line, just one time,” he said. “I had no idea that one line would take 14 years to walk away from.” The following day, Herren had his first drug test. “I walked into my first college drug test knowing I was going to test positive for marijuana and cocaine,” he said. After fracturing his wrist in his first college basketball game, Herren was out for his freshman season. With basketball temporarily out of his life, he indulged in partying
and drugs. “I figured they wouldn’t test me because I wasn’t playing. I was wrong,” he said. After failing three more drug tests, Boston College rescinded his scholarship and sent him home. Even after Hall of Fame Basketball Coach Jeff Tarkanian gave Herren a second chance to play at Fresno State, Herren continued to abuse drugs. Despite his battle with drugs, he still performed well. In 1999, he was selected 33rd in the NBA draft by the Denver Nuggets. “When I walked into that locker room with the Denver Nuggets, I had guys like Chauncey Billups, Nick Van Exel, Antonio McDyess, who pulled me aside and said, ‘We’ve seen your story ... that’s not going to happen here,’” Herren said. He stayed out of trouble until after the season, when he purchased his first oxycontin pill for $20. “I had no idea that the $20 I spent that day ... would turn into a $25,000 a month oxycontin habit,” he said. Herren’s career continued and finally peaked when he was offered the position of starter for the Boston Celtics. But Herren said he doesn’t remember the night his dream came true. After his last season in the NBA, Herren played in Europe. At 24-years-old, Herren shot heroin intravenously for the first time. It wasn’t until basketball Hall of Famer Chris Mullin, who had struggled with an alcohol addiction, paid for Herren to enter a treatment center that he started to get better. Junior football captain and starting linebacker David Cooper said he appreciated Herren’s message and understood the dangers of drug abuse. “It could potentially affect everyone in this room,” he said. Head Football Coach Kevin Wilson said it was important to have his team in attendance. “We have to continue to educate our guys on and off court on social activities and behaviors,” he said. “We have to educate guys on how to do the right things.”

Election season begins in Monroe
BY STEVEN JOHNSON stetjohn@indiana.edu
One in three foreclosed homes in the Indianapolis-Carmel metro area sat abandoned last year, more than anywhere else in the country, according to data gathered from realty analytics firm RealtyTrac. In Gary, a program announced in June worked to relieve the city’s expanding blight crisis by selling abandoned properties for a dollar each. RealtyTrac data indicates the statewide rate of foreclosures is on par with the national average. However, abandonment of those homes in certain regions is so bad that the state reallocated $75 million from a foreclosure avoidance program to one dedicated to mopping up the effects of foreclosure — the Blight Elimination Program. The program allows local governments to apply for funds to supplement the high cost of demolition. Bloomington’s situation is not as severe as Gary’s or Indianapolis’, but local government is discussing this week whether to submit an application for program funds, said Lisa Abbott, director of the Housing and Neighborhood Development Department. “We’re looking at whether or not we think we can submit a competitive grant application,” Abbott said. “We’re up against counties that have more housing issues than we do.”
The filing deadline for Indiana’s May 6 primary election was last Friday, officially kicking off a threemonth campaign season in which candidates will battle for party nominations to the November general election ballot. Bloomington voters will face decisions about congressional and statehouse legislators, as well as a long list of county administrative positions. The race for Indiana’s 9th Congressional District, covering 12 counties including Monroe County and much of south-central Indiana, will have the highest profile on the ballot. Rep. Todd Young, R-9th District, is running for reelection and his third term in office after first being elected in 2010. Three other Republicans have filed for the seat. Four Democrats have filed as well, hoping to take back the seat that has switched parties several times throughout the past two decades. Local races for the Indiana General Assembly won’t see competition in the May primary, although they will in November for the General Election on Nov. 10. — Michael Auslen
A number of factors play into the decision, most of them demographic, she said. HAND looks at the type of housing, locations, how scattered they are and whether they can be fixed before making a decision on demolition. “We didn’t have the huge foreclosure that other communities have, so we didn’t have a lot of foreclosed abandoned properties,” Abbott said. “We have a few — Indianapolis has complete blocks.” Abbott said HAND’s efforts to monitor properties in question drives down the risk of abandonment or blight. “We have some scattered, abandoned properties, most of which are on our watch list, and we’re usually pretty good about making sure they’re sealed up,” Abbot said. “We drive by periodically to make sure. You know, it’s not a lot.” Abbott said out of a community of 35,000 housing units, Bloomington saw only 28 unsafe orders last year, registered for homes that required sealing, repair or removal — some of them due to fires. “To compare, Indy removed 2,000 structures,” Abbott said. HAND plans to decide next week on whether to apply for state Blight Elimination Program funds, Abbott said.

Early learning is currently divided into two stages, birth to age 5 and kindergarten to third grade.

Gov. Mike Pence testified today before the Indiana Senate Education and Career and Development Committee in support of House Bill 1004. Authored by Rep. Robert Behning, R-Indianapolis, the bill would help families in five Indiana counties afford early childhood education. Pence began his speech by mentioning one in five Indiana children lives in poverty. He said in order to eradicate poverty, children must be prepared to begin learn when they begin kindergarten, which is not always the case. “They arrive in kindergarten and spend too much time trying to catch up, and when that fails they spend too much of their lives dropping out — out of school, out of work and out of our communities,” Pence said. He said part of the problem starts at home, where children aren’t learning the skills they need to be successful. “I’ve seen firsthand pre-K programs that work with disadvantaged kids to get them

She said Indiana has to continue to make young children a priority.

Pence ended his statement urging Hoosiers to keep those children who are the least fortunate in mind. “As we consider this legislation, I urge you to do so first and foremost with Indiana’s disadvantaged children in mind,” Pence said. “For those of us blessed to call Indiana home, we owe it to all of our children, especially the least of these, to see to it that they start school ready to succeed.” — Sydney Murray

I had really bad acne as a teenager. It may seem like an odd jump, but because of my experience with horrendous skin, I cannot support Senate Bill 50, a proposed Indiana bill that would ban all minors under the age of 16 from using tanning beds. Now, bad acne isn’t something out of the ordinary for an adolescent with raging hormones and a serious case of the high school blues. But at the risk of coming off like a drama queen, my blemished skin was a real blow to my self-confidence growing up. Which is why after years of Proactiv, mud masks and weekly facial treatments, my mom signed me up for an indoor tanning account at a local tanning salon. I was 15-years-old, and I had given up hope that any skin treatment would ever work for me. But using a tanning bed worked. My skin wasn’t perfect, but it cleared up more than from any other treatment — including prescription medication — ever had. I’m not here to claim tanning beds are miracle workers, but they’re not the cancer beds people make them out to be. Furthermore, people shouldn’t be chastised for using them. Whether you use a tanning bed or not, studies show your risk for melanoma is less than one percent because melanoma is extremely rare to begin with. In fact, there are actually a number of medical benefits to using tanning beds in safe and moderate amounts. People use tanning beds in order to build a base tan, which alongside sunscreen can protect skin from burning or becoming irritated when exposed to sunlight. Additionally, millions of salon customers use tanning beds in order to treat ailments such as eczema, season affective disorder, psoriasis and, yes, even acne. The ultraviolet-B rays emitted by tanning beds also increase users’ vitamin D levels, which research suggests reduces your likelihood of developing multiple sclerosis, heart disease or contracting the flu. The key is to tan smartly and safely, which isn’t encouraged or promoted when teenagers are banned from using tanning beds altogether. If parents are concerned with their child’s exposure to tanning beds, it’s their choice to exercise their rights as guardians and forbid their children from going to the tanning salon. If I was legally barred from using a tanning bed growing up, my self-confidence would have continued to dwindle, and my skin would not have improved. Hoosier mothers and fathers should have the right to educate their teenage children on how to tan smartly and effectively if they so choose. This is no place for the Indiana legislature to act as a disapproving parent.

BOEHNER
OBSTRUCTION CO. IMMIGRATION - HEALTHCARE -GENERAL PROG
ILLUSTRATION BY GRIFFIN LEEDS | IDS
Republi-can’ts Speaker of the House of Representatives John Boehner, R-Ohio, has his doubts. He doubts the effectiveness of the Affordable Care Act. He doubts his ability to get re-elected without looking like he just got back from Florida. Most of all, he doubts the willingness of the Obama administration to dutifully enforce laws passed by his chamber. So, in response, he has vowed to simply stop passing them. Boehner declared last week that the House likely won’t be sending immigration reform to the president’s desk until that changes. We can debate various readings of the president’s constitutional duty to “faithfully execute” the law back and forth along a spectrum of strong to weak executive power. Boehner seems to believe in an executive that follows Congressional instructions to the letter. He and those like him would have you believe they are fighting a valiant, selfless, ideological battle against the unconstitutional expansion of executive power by a dangerous man. Never mind that this expansion of executive power has been taking place for decades or more — arguably as early as President Harry S. Truman — across various realms of public policy. Apparently it’s just now that Congress, as fallaciously represented by the GOP, is realizing this might not be in their best interest. Never mind the controversial executive orders of President George W. Bush, including everything from wiretapping to stem cell research to broad legal protection for United States oil companies operating in Iraq. Boehner stands in front of cameras and tells you he just doesn’t know what to expect from the president. He implies that he would rather see nothing get done on immigration than risk leaving even small details up to the president’s apparently wild and unpredictable agenda. This should sound familiar because it’s exactly the

kind of strategy this party has been spewing since the day Obama was sworn into office. Obstructionism, non-cooperation and denial of bipartisanship has been the playbook of the Republican party from day one. In the 2012 book “The New New Deal” former Republican Senator George Voinovich told author Michael Grunwald, “If (Obama) was for it, we had to be against it.” For five years, the Republican strategy has essentially been No-bama. That’s no way to govern a country. Boehner and the Republican party are not the holy anointed stewards of all that is truly American and right. If their chamber is able to pass a bill and the president doesn’t want to enforce the way they wrote it or chooses to veto, it’s likely because he doesn’t agree with it. What Boehner doesn’t seem to understand is that’s exactly how the system is supposed to work. There’s a reason Boehner’s party doesn’t control all of Congress and the White House — it’s because a significant part of this country still doesn’t agree that they are right. So instead of simply refusing to function within a political system that’s specifically designed to give him and his party less than 100 percent of what they want, it’s time for the GOP to buck up and give the American people what they need — real immigration reform that is palatable, even if not perfect, for all stakeholders involved. That means not only a bill that can pass Congress, but also a bill that the executive branch is enthusiastic to sign and execute. — drlreed@indiana.edu Follow columnist Drake Reed on Twitter @D_L_Reed.
Many outlets would have Americans believe that it is solely the fault of the Republicans for peddling an “obstructionist agenda” that interferes with important priorities like immigration reform. I am in full agreement that the current immigration system does not function very well and needs to be replaced, or at least overhauled. I also believe that the United States was, is and will continue to be a nation of immigrants, and they should have the right to come into this country to pursue the American Dream. Yet I cannot say that Republicans are the only reason why immigration reform is currently stuck in the House of Representatives. The truth of the matter is that Democrats have done just as much to poison political relations between the two parties, making such a feat extraordinarily difficult to accomplish. As readers of these pages will know, the atmosphere in Washington, D.C., is to the point where both parties cannot be seen acquiescing to one another. It is in this stalemate that immigration reform was thrust upon Congress. After seeing the poll numbers from the 2012 presidential election, some conservatives believed the best way to win back Hispanic voters was to tackle immigration head-on. But after a year that saw scandal after scandal as well as a seemingly embattled president that has proved just as recalcitrant, I am quite surprised that the push back against reform has not been worse. Many House Republicans will be facing reelection later this month, and the odds of being challenged from the right are real. Look at what happened to Senator Richard Lugar getting beaten out by Richard Mourdock in the Republican Primary for the 2012

Indiana Senate Race. The Obama Administration has shown no qualms about using executive force to get around Congress. For example, the perceived activism of executive agencies such as the Justice Department hacking the Associated Press’ phones or the Internal Revenue Service applying severe pressure to conservative nonprofit groups has left many Republicans dismayed at and unwilling to compromise with President Obama. Additionally, the use of executive fiat to delay implementation of many parts of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act has left conservatives on edge, worried that the president will keep parts of bills he likes while delaying or sabotaging parts that he disdains, effectively creating a new piece of legislation much different than the one passed. As if that was not enough, some may remember what happened in 1986. ThenPresident Ronald Reagan signed comprehensive immigration reform into law, but the result according to conservatives was amnesty to illegal immigrants and no lasting impact. Republicans continue to have a not-too-far-fetched concern regarding the President seeking to have millions of voters eternally loyal to the Democratic Party. Republicans would never seek to pass a major reform that the president could take credit for, so there is no incentive for them to do so. All of these factors led Speaker of the House John Boehner, R-Ohio, not to bring up immigration reform until the end of the year. And to perfectly frank, I cannot blame him for doing so. — mjsu@indiana.edu

To t a l S o ro r i t y Mov e. com, a blog about college life, recently posted an article called “Why Our Generation Needs an AssKicking, Pronto.” The article was posted on my news feed by several of my friends. It’s written by what I assume is a sorority girl, given the blog title. And it decries the Millennial generation and our apparent constant need to drink and party and take things for granted. Now, I will say that Millennials are not without their faults. We’re a young generation in the midst of figuring it out, and, for many of us, cleaning up after the Greatest Generation and Generation X’s mistakes. We do tend to take things for granted. Any fan of “American Horror Story” will remember Emma Roberts stonyfaced and cigarette smoke infused speech about how we don’t feel, that we are immune to real emotion and that we have a sense of entitlement the size of a flat screen television. But I can’t believe that’s true. Total Sorority Move claims that “study after study” has proven that we don’t care about anything at all. I beg to differ. Millennials are the first real “modern” generation. Our world is fastpaced and information filled. Yes, we live on ramen and vodka. We’re used to ease, and we’re used to making things easy. But we are not a generation that cares less — in fact, we’re almost a generation that cares more. We’re environmentally aware and socially conscious. We have the ability to tap into a constant ebb and flow of information, which means we’re not “sloppy and arrogant,” but in the middle of an information overhaul and mastering new patterns of social behavior and interaction. In essence, we live in a world that previous generations struggle to understand, and, if I may remind anyone who sang peace songs in protest of Vietnam, we’re not the first younger generation that older generations fail to comprehend. But we don’t need an ass-kicking, as Total Sorority Move recommends. “Some people” do not “need to suck it up and stop whining about making copies at their internships.” There are Millennials putting themselves through college. Millennials who work three jobs to support younger siblings or sick family members. Millennials starting companies and charities. Yes, we like a good party. But simplifying us down to a stereotype ignores the work we are doing. We’re not going to ruin the world. If anything, we may fix it. — ewenning@indiana.edu

Derek Jeter plans to retire after 2014 season New York Yankees shortstop Derek Jeter announced Wednesday that the 2014 Major League Baseball season will be his last. Jeter, a 19-year veteran, plans on retiring next fall. The 13-time All-Star has led the Yankees to five World Series titles in his career.
He is 10th in all-time hits with 3,316 and 13th in all-time runs scored with 1,876. Jeter is one of 62 players in MLB history to play at least 15 seasons and spend their entire career with one team.
Women’s basketball prepares to play No. 11 Penn State BY SAM BEISHUIZEN sbeishui@indiana.edu
IU women’s basketball will welcome No. 11 Penn State Thursday at Assembly Hall with a chance to pad its résumé with a win against the premier team in the Big Ten. A win against the Nittany Lions (18-5, 9-2) could go a long way in securing an NCAA Tournament bid, but doing so will require knocking off a Penn State team that coasted to a 65-52 win against IU (17-6, 4-6) exactly three weeks ago. “This is why this freshman class came,” IU Coach Curt Miller said. “This is why that large senior class probably originally picked Indiana — was the opportunity to go a BCS school and play against the best of the best.” Penn State comes to Bloomington after defeating Ohio State 74-54 on Feb. 9. The Nittany Lions are led by senior guard Maggie Lucas, who scored 23 points against Ohio State in the win. Her 9-of-14 shooting performance helped her reach 2,322 career points, making her the fifth-highest scorer in Big Ten history. Lucas tallied 18 points against the Hoosiers in the teams’ first matchup. Freshman guard Taylor Agler believes it will take a team effort to limit the 2012-13 Big Ten Player of the Year. “I don’t think one person can shut down Maggie Lucas or even guard her,” Agler said. “It’s the whole team that needs to do it and that was kind of what we did last time. Even though one person was technically assigned to her, I think the whole team needs to help out.” Offensively, the Hoosiers will look to improve upon their 27.6 percent shooting effort from the last time IU played Penn State. More than half of IU’s field goal
shots were 3-point field goal attempts, where the Hoosiers shot 9-of-30. IU scored 40 of its 76 points in the paint against Wisconsin during the Hoosiers’ most recent victory. IU is 6-0 this season when scoring more than 40 points in the paint. Miller said getting the ball to IU’s forwards and centers will be a point of emphasis against Penn State. IU’s post players will also need to combat Penn State’s rebounding. The Nittany Lions are the best rebounding team in the Big Ten and average 14.9 offensive rebounds per game — 3.18 more than the conference average. “I think the statistic at the end of the game that will be a big deal is, ‘Can we keep them off the offensive glass?’” Miller said. “Even when they can’t get it and they are boxed out, their length allows them to tip balls and keep them alive and they scramble and get those 50-50 balls. “We are going to need a great night rebounding if we want to get the upset.” IU enters the game as an underdog against conference-leading Penn State, but Miller said that’s a mentality his team has used before. With only six games left before the Big Ten Tournament, Miller said the Hoosiers are focused on the next game ahead and upsetting Penn State. “I think they really have a good underdog mentality going into this game,” Miller said. “I liked our focus. I liked our prep. “Where the game will end up, we’ll see after two hours, but I like their mentality.”
Senior women’s basketball player Simone Deloach was named to the Big Ten Player of the Week Honor Roll, the Big Ten announced Tuesday. The 6-foot-3 forward tied a career high with 14 points and added a season-high 14 rebounds during IU’s 76-69 victory against Wisconsin Saturday. She finished with four assists, one steal and one block. On the defensive end, Deloach managed to limit Wisconsin’s Michala Johnson to only five rebounds, well below her season average of 7.3 boards per game. Deloach is averaging
IU implodes in final minutes BY ALDEN WOODS aldwoods@indiana.edu
On a night that looked destined to be a celebration, the Hoosiers fell apart. With an 11-point lead and senior forward Will Sheehey sitting just one point shy of becoming the 47th Hoosier to reach 1,000 career points, IU was three minutes and 19 seconds away from festivities that never came to be. During those final minutes, when Penn State outscored IU 13-1 to snatch a victory, a familiar foe returned to hurt the Hoosiers — turnovers. IU gave the ball away five times during the game’s final 199 seconds, including backto-back inbound plays that allowed Penn State to complete its comeback.

be up to him and Sheehey to help the Hoosiers stem the flow. “We’ve just got to get more intelligent,” Ferrell said. “It starts, of course, with me and Will, always does. We’re the front-runners for that. But we’ve just got to be more intelligent with the ball and how we play the game.” He said he will look for players to step up and take a leadership role to slow the turnovers and keep the team’s composure as a whole. “You can’t just play to play at this level,” he said. “We’ve all got to do better ... Our leadership could’ve been better.” Follow reporter Alden Woods on Twitter @acw9293.
A collapse for the ages When Jeremy Hollowell’s free throw went through the net with three minutes and 19 seconds remaining, giving IU the 64-53 lead, there was one thing on my mind. “Wow, I have a chance to get my prediction of IU-68, Penn State-55 pretty darn close.” Then that thing happened. That thing was an unbelievable, train wreck of a collapse by the IU men’s basketball team. I watched the whole game. I swear I was there. But as Kevin “Yogi” Ferrell’s desperation, off-balance jumper went careening off the rim and Penn State (13-12, 4-8) knocked off IU (14,10, 4-7), 66-65, I couldn’t believe the final result. I’m still not sure how IU fell to Penn State. The reasons why IU should have won outweighed why they should have lost. There were zero ties. And only one lead change happened — with 6.1 seconds remaining. IU led for 39 minutes and 54 seconds of

Wednesday night were the Hoosiers’ most since the Dec. 20-31 stretch, in which they gave the ball away 20, 20 and 23 times. Crean said while many of IU’s turnovers are a problem, many come from its high-pace, run-the-floor offensive style. He added he will not look to change his game plan in order to take better care of the ball. “The turnovers, there’s no excuse,” Crean said. “I’d like to say, ‘You know what, if we did this, if we did that, what if we just aired it out, slowed it down,’ I’m not sure that’s the answer. We need easy baskets, so you have to run some.” Sophomore guard Kevin “Yogi” Ferrell, who committed four turnovers Wednesday night, said it will

Turnovers dogged the Hoosiers’ throughout the game. In total, IU gave the ball away 20 times and, on multiple occasions, turned it over on back-to-back possessions. IU Coach Tom Crean said the Hoosiers’ inability to protect the ball played an important role in the loss. “The two things that hurt us throughout the night were the turnovers, and the ridiculousness of those,” he said. After struggling with turnovers in the early part of the season, the Hoosiers appeared to have solved the issue. IU turned the ball over an average of 16.3 times per game in its first 16 games this season, but cut that number to 13.9 per game during its last seven contests. The 20 turnovers

the game. The Hoosiers shot a fantastic 51 percent from the field. Penn State shot a mediocre 40.7 percent. IU held Penn State guard D.J. Newbill to just seven points on 3-of-12 shooting. Coming into the game, Newbill was leading the Big Ten in scoring. Only one Hoosier had a “bad” game. Evan Gordon went 1-of-6 from the field for four points. Even though Ferrell wasn’t shooting at a great clip (4-of-13), he still finished with 16 points. IU was in control the whole game, but Penn State was lurking just on the edge of contention. And in the final two minutes and 25 seconds of the game, the lurking Nittany Lions attacked the suddenly lethargic Hoosiers. Penn State ended the game on an 11-1 run and put one more nail in the coffin of IU’s dreams of dancing in March. All the credit has to be given to Penn State. They were ferocious. They didn’t
quit. IU turned the ball over again and again trying to inbound the ball. And guard Tim Frazier was magnificent. The 23-year-old senior made a beautiful move to the rim, alluding the Hoosier defense to give Penn State their first lead of the game with 6.1 seconds remaining. It was a mighty good time to take your first lead of the game. I have a confession. If you’re reading this for a breakdown of X’s and O’s, I have bad news for you. I have no idea what happened. I know the 20 turnovers sure didn’t help. But as the final two minutes and 25 seconds unfolded, there was a thought that kept recurring in my mind. And I hate this certain thought, because it’s the easy way out. It takes no intellect to say and even less to write. But for the final two mintues and 25 seconds of the Penn State-IU game, it was true. Penn State wanted it

more. That’s it. That’s the explanation. Sure, Penn State was great in denying when IU tried to inbound the ball. But IU players weren’t scrapping and clawing to get open. And, sure, Penn State hit a couple threes. But IU was a step slow in closing out on defense. Until IU plays with consistent intensity for 40 minutes, this program can’t take a step forward. The Hoosiers have to want to get better. When they make that choice, this talented team could do some scary things. Until then, the only scary thing this team can do is blow an 11-point lead with three minutes and 19 seconds remaining in a basketball game. —ehoopfer@indiana.edu

Down two, Penn State had possession of the ball with 33 seconds to play. Sophomore guard Austin Etherington, who hit a 3-pointer to give IU a twopoint lead with just over a minute remaining against Penn State Jan. 11, saw himself once again playing meaningful minutes against the Nittany Lions. With 16 seconds left, Etherington took a charge on a driving John Johnson, sending Assembly Hall into psychosis. IU called a timeout. Penn State Coach Pat Chambers was livid on his team’s bench. It had appeared that, yet again, Etherington had sealed an IU victory against Penn State. Yet on IU’s next possession, senior forward Will Sheehey’s inbounds pass was stolen by Frazier. Sheehey fouled Ross Travis, who would shoot two free throws to potentially tie the game. Travis, a 68.6 percent free throw shooter entering the
game, missed the first and made the second. IU led by one with 14 seconds to play. Another inbounds pass came along its baseline. This time was no different from the other. Freshman forward Noah Vonleh’s inbounds pass was intercepted by D.J. Newbill. Penn State, down one, now had the ball with 12 seconds remaining. Out of a Penn State timeout, Frazier, who was being defended by Ferrell, drove to his left and finished at the rim — a soft finger-roll that gave the Nittany Lions their first lead of the game with six seconds remaining. IU called a timeout and drew up a play intended for either Ferrell or Sheehey, according to Crean. Ferrell received the inbounds pass and darted up the court, but with several Penn State defenders draped on him, he had to heave up a prayer that clunked off the rim. As Penn State players ran towards each other in jubilation, having ended the game on 10-0 run to complete an improbable comeback, a chorus of boos rained down upon Branch McCracken court.

A NEW KIND OF BLOCKBUSTER ‘The Lego Movie’ Chris Pratt, Elizabeth Banks, Will Ferrell A Everything is awesome, and “The Lego Movie” has quickly revolutionized animated film. In 1934, Lego was a bunch of wooden toys taking their company name from the Danish phrase leg godt, meaning “play well.” The new movie sticks to that original motto. The whole endeavor is a fine example of playing. It’s creative, fine-tuned, self-aware and funny as hell. Focusing on Emmet (Chris Pratt), a normal construction Lego minifigure who is happy in his Big Brother-dominated world, the movie starts off fresh and amusing as we get to explore Emmet’s daily habits of not fitting in. But it goes further and only gets better. After falling into a pit and being deemed the most extraordinary man in the Lego universe, Emmet is snatched up by Wyldstyle (Elizabeth Banks), Batman (Will Arnett) and Virtuvius (Morgan Freeman) to join the rest of the master-builders and save the world from President Business’ (Will Ferrell) plan to glue the universe in place.
The adventure ends up being a madcap, worldhopping event that somehow seamlessly blends together storylines from pirates to Star Wars and effortlessly mashes Gandalf, Shakespeare, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Abraham Lincoln into one storyline. How does it accomplish this? Because it’s a “children’s” movie that devotes itself fully to a post-modern self-awareness in every aspect. It makes the unfamiliar the norm and never looks back. Probably the best thing about “The Lego Movie” is its groundbreaking animation. The whole movie abides by the rules of the Lego universe and never strays from that established code. Smoke, explosions, bubbles underwater and more are all created from Lego bricks. While it’d be easy to accept a classic animated explosion here and there, the film never gives into easy temptation. Toward the end of the movie, the script even gets justifiably sentimental and wonderfully explores family dynamics, in particular the relationship between fathers and sons. Pretty impressive for a film where Morgan Freeman voices a character who carries around a half-eaten lollipop for a walking stick. The film reminds all of us to always play well and never settle for the mundane. A message we don’t just need children to invest in. BY SAM OSTROWSKI

Professor talks Somalian jewelry at museum BY ALISON GRAHAM akgraham@indiana.edu
Associate Professor of Design Heather Marie Akou stood next to a case of Somalian jewelry, ready to present her speech. She was wearing an African necklace made of silver and engraved with a flower design and dangling pieces. Akou presented this week’s Noon Talk Wednesday at the IU Art Museum. She described the region of Somalia and its use of jewelry as a class symbol. Somalia is located on the eastern Horn of Africa, just across the sea from Yemen and Oman. Its location encouraged trade with the Arabian Peninsula, causing rapid economic growth in the region during the 1800s. “Because of that economic boom, a lot of money started coming into that region,” Akou said. Women accumulated their wealth through their own dowries, which, unlike in many countries, the women retained control of, Akou said. Much of their dowry and wealth became tied to their intricate jewelry, made from bone, teeth, leather, stones, glass beads, coral, metals and amber. “A lot of what they were using were trade goods, which made these pieces really spectacular,” Akou said. “Each group took these elements of jewelry and put them together in their own way.” Some of the jewelry was
religiously significant for the women as well, with specific add-ons meaning different things. Jewelry from certain regions included hollow cylinders that would hold printed verses inside, protecting the individuals in certain times of life, Akou said. The jewelry became a symbol for class status and wealth in the region depending on which materials the jewelry was created from. Recently, Somalia experienced a severe drought in the region, and people needed money. “When they needed money to support and keep their families alive, they would sell this expensive jewelry,” Akou said. At the time of the drought, a group from the Foundation for Cross Cultural Understanding was in the region and approached by women trying to sell their PHOTOS BY ALISON GRAHAM | IDS jewelry. Associate Professor of Design Heather Marie Akou discussed the importance of Somalian jewelry at this week’s Noon Talk at the IU Art Museum. The group bought some of the pieces and brought them back to the United States for educational purposes, Akou said. Eventually, the collection was split between the Smithsonian, the University of Florida and the IU Art Museum. Jewelry is still an important part of Somalian culture, but isn’t as publicly displayed because of the rise of Islam in the region. “There are very wealthy trading Arab families that still have spectacular pieces,” Akou said. Somalian jewelry is displayed Wednesday at the IU Art Museum. Professor Heather Marie Akou discussed the jewelry at this week’s Noon Talk.
Slam poets to share work at Rachael’s Cafe tonight BY SARAH ZINN sjzinn@indiana.edu
Harlan Kelly thinks performing slam poetry is like laying your soul out there for everyone to see. But he isn’t afraid of vulnerability. Kelly, a slam poet, said being open on stage helps the audience identify with the raw emotions he accesses. “It’s a unique kind of communication,” he said. “I think that what surprises people most, is how much it ends up feeling like a conversation.” Tonight at 9, Kelly and 10 other slam poets will compete for a small prize at
Rachael’s Cafe for “Love the Mic Night.” Slam Poetry is different than page poetry, Kelly said. It’s a form of poetry that is meant for performance. “A lot of poetry on the page is less inviting to people at times because it’s so intricate and subtle, where slam poetry is more engaging and acceptable,” he said. Most often poetry slams are competitions between poets. Each poet during tonight’s competition will be allowed 3 1/2 minutes to perform. They will be rated by audience members who will be randomly selected as judges.
There will be a short open mic portion before the competition. “We don’t want to turn anyone away,” Kelly said. There is a suggested $5 donation, but the event is free. Kelly said the group is trying to raise funds to go to the National Poetry Slam Competition in Boulder, Colo. Last year, he was a part of a small group of IU students who went to the national competition in New York City. Writing slam poetry is a different process than page poetry, he said. “Page poetry is all about just writing off the page, and
just you think off the page,” he said. With the time limit, slam takes more finesse, he said. “If you want to pack a lot of words into it, you have to do some rehearsal,” Kelly said. Writing poetry helps him organize his thoughts, he said. He said he tends to write about death, as his mother was previously diagnosed with cancer. “I can’t really do it when I’m in the thick of it,” he said. “I have to experience something, and then I can write about it afterward.” Despite the personal information he often expresses in his poems, Kelly
doesn’t get nervous performing. He said it doesn’t bother him. “I’ve had people approach me and be like, ‘Hey you don’t know me at all, but I know about your life because I’ve seen you perform,’” he said. “I think it’s weirder for other people than it is for me.” Kelly said he’s just an open person and likes the pressure of performing because it pushes him. “I wish I got to see everybody I know perform slam poetry because it would be cool to see what came out of people,” he said.
LOVE THE MIC NIGHT Love themed open mic night followed by a poetry slam competition Rachael’s Cafe 300 E. 3rd St. Tonight at 9 p.m. Free, but $5 suggested donation Proceeds will help the IU Poetry Slam team attend he National Poetry Slam Competition in Boulder, Colo. 10 open mic performers 13 slam poetry performers The poetry slam winner will be the fourth and final IU team member to compete at the national competition, which the group attended last year in New York City.
CHIC OF THE WEEK
When Nothing Else is, Go Simple: A V-day lesson Don’t tell me your love life is complicated. Follow this: Paolo is an Italian bus driver who is engaged to a German stewardess by the name of Greta, but he starts to fall for a French girl on a bicycle named Cécile, who has two Australian kids. Oh, and he’s best friends with a British guy named David who seems to be a catalyst to the entire situation. With such a convoluted, multicultured plot, I’m just thankful it comes with a simple title, “Girl on a Bicycle.” Though critics aren’t raving about the Valentine’s Day release, the film seems to promise a quirky yet witty simplicity that reminds me of a Woody Allen flick. But I’m not a film critic. What I can tell you is that the film had great potential to have an amazingly vogue costume design. But costume designer Catherine Leterrier decided not to. Leterrier is most famous for her work in “Coco Before Chanel” in 2009, which gave her an Oscar nomination and France’s prestigious César award.
Her designs were brilliant. They not only showcased Coco Chanel’s early style selections but contrasted them with the extravagance of her late nineteenth-century, early twentieth-century French peers. So, when Leterrier signed on to “Girl on a Bicycle” with Indiana native Jeremy Leven, screenwriter of “The Notebook,” I was expecting her to suit the multicultured cast each with their particular brand of Eurochic. Instead, we see solid color oxfords for Paolo, plain blouses for Cécile and a graphic tee with an unnecessary short sleeve plaid button-up. The most exciting piece shown was Greta’s stewardship uniform or possibly Paolo’s tacky red tie worn during his bus tour shift. Oh, or the kid’s dinosaur pajamas. But what the designs do happen to do is offer simplicity to a topic — love — that can be anything but. No design threatens the dialogue or has me daydreaming of some French boutique. It’s natural, and it goes

with the subtleness of the film while serving as a realistic alternative to the pressed Euro-chic stereotype. I’ll confess, my first time in Paris, I was an underwhelming teenage American tourist with denim, converse and a Nikon. Don’t be that. But don’t ignore the bliss in the understated effortlessness of a European look or your relationship. And though you may still plan to spend V-day with a lover and Chanel No. 5, or with indulgent German chocolates like me, just remember that it’s okay to be simple, and sometimes the best things should be. Share your favorite simple selections. Be mine. — kcollisi@indiana.edu Follow columnist Kelsey Collisi on Twitter @kelcollisi.

‘The Unnatural World’ Have a Nice Life B+ Connecticut-based band Have a Nice Life has a lot riding on their latest release. It’s been nearly six years since their debut, the ambitious double concept album “Deathconsciousness.” That’s not to say the duo hasn’t been keeping busy. In addition to releasing a live DVD, a four-song EP and a collection of demos and B-sides, frontman Dan Barrett continues to run his Enemies List label while putting out a steady stream of solo releases. These most notably include 2011’s excellent solo LP “Giles Corey” and a series of electropop singles in 2013 under the Black Wing moniker. Those concerned that Barrett’s recent folk and pop
stylings would make this record any less of a dismal, eardrumshattering powerhouse need not fear. Have a Nice Life’s latest record, “The Unnatural World,” is a cavernous post-punk, shoegaze hybrid. Think Faith-era Cure, plus Alcest, minus the black hair and nail polish, and you wouldn’t be too far off the mark. The lead single “Defenestration Song” packs all the anger and bitterness into its six-minute run time you would expect from a song whose title tells you to hurl things out of a window. “Music Will Untune the Sky” begins as a mind-numbing drone that blossoms into a beautiful, almost triumphant, cascade of feedback and reverb. A lurching, Joy Divisionesque bass riff propels “Dan and Tim, Reunited by Fate” through a sparse intro before waves of lo-fi synth and warped tremolo guitar chords drown the track in a suffocating murk that stands starkly against the song’s ridiculous — even embarrassing
— title. “The Unnatural World” is a more mature record than its predecessor. Gone is the amateur production, absurd concepts and oddball pop sensibilities that hindered the second disc of “Deathconsciousness.” That said, maturity isn’t the most important factor when it comes to punk rock. By refusing to tap into the juvenile melodrama they wallowed in back in 2008, Have a Nice Life has crafted an album that lacks the bizarre but undeniably brilliant effect. A recurring theme in the band’s debut disc was that of the early North American plains — massive, strange and powerful. These eight songs still create a sonic landscape that begs to be explored. But this time, the plow’s already broken the fields, and the horizons have been brought miles closer.
boarding school for their species. Lissa aims to become the queen-bee and reclaim her status while Rose tries her best to protect the princess from the Strigoi, immortal and villain vampires. Although the scriptwriter tries hard to capture the magic of “Harry Potter” and “Twilight,” he packs together too much borrowed material with no cohesion, which makes the story a heap of loose sand. It seems the more backstories Waters wants to blend, the more they cannibalize each other. Ironically, when Waters puts forth the effort to mix the magic of other films, he somehow forgets the magic of his own. He doesn’t manage to polish the “abracadabra” factor in the film, or maybe he simply didn’t have the budget for special effects. Either way, it makes for a buzz killer of a science and fantasy film. Fortunately, not every aspect of “Vampire Academy” is a rehash. Detached from typical vampire characterization, the Moroi are shaped in a modern image. They can walk in the sun with a nice umbrella and satisfy their need for blood by drinking human volunteers’ blood in a lounge, which is more like a vampire’s version of Starbucks. In case you want to compare
these vampires to the Cullens, they do not sparkle. The film’s palette is full of rich darkness — the classic tone of a vampire movie — and the director cherry-picks the vampire’s peculiarities. Therefore, the film still showcases fangs, blood and, of course, their destructive hormones. Deutch’s electrifying performance enriches her role as the responsible guardian. She oozes the warmth and the rebel of a guardian and best friend of a princess. The film’s pace, punctuated by violence, doesn’t seem rapid because of the buffering of loose plot. The impulsive fight scenes and off-kilter composition leave the audience — especially young, vampire wannabes — with a disorienting sense of being immersed in the characters’ lives. Thus “Vampire Academy” becomes an amalgam of corny genres and youthful impulses — part stereotype, part adaption, part chopped narratives and part evocative performances. It seems the result of this “mixed stew” depends on personal taste. Bon appetit.

‘Dead’ still has bite ‘The Walking Dead’ Andrew Lincoln, Chandler Riggs, Danai Gurira B+ For a show about a zombie apocalypse, “The Walking Dead” is seriously introspective. At least half of each episode’s 42-minute running time is dedicated to wordless storytelling. Without any dialogue, Michonne lures two walkers into a trap and assembles them as her personal zombie bodyguards. Young Carl perches on the roof of an empty home, eating chocolate pudding while a trapped zombie reaches out an open window behind him. It’s a thing of beauty to see an actiondriven show dial it down a few notches and remember how subtlety plays into the medium. As the show’s fourth season returns for its last eight episodes, everyone is
separated and — as per usual — no one is safe. Former police sheriff Rick Grimes and his son, Carl, hole themselves up in a vacant home so Rick can recover from his wounds sustained in the midseason finale confrontation with the Governor and his crew. Michonne is haunted by ghosts from her past as she desperately searches for her missing comrades. But it’s the younger Grimes who takes the lead this time around. As a teenager forced to grow up far too quickly in a vastly changed world, Carl has always been one of the show’s more fascinating characters. Instead of growing up playing with friends his own age and getting angry at his father for giving him a curfew, Carl is avoiding becoming zombie bait and bemoaning his father for not letting him use a gun. Carl’s forced maturation is never so obvious than during this episode when he discovers a teenager’s abandoned room, full of music posters, Xbox games and a flat screen television. But instead of being able
to sit down and play, Carl rips the cords out of the wall to bind the door shut. It’s a haunting reminder of how our world dictates our purpose and choices in life. This episode’s focus on Carl, Michonne and Rick also highlights another of “The Walking Dead’s” strengths — its commitment to taking an ensemble cast and focusing individual episodes to just a few characters. Earlier this season, two episodes focused solely on the Governor, and they were stunning. This episode isn’t as strong on its own, but it effectively communicates the mentality of loneliness and the vast unknown that has separated the show’s core group. Subsequent episodes will focus on characters like Glen, Maggie and the other surviving members, and we can only hope our motley crew of zombie slayers will once again be reunited. But let’s remember, this is “The Walking Dead.” And there can’t be any happy endings when zombies have enslaved the earth. BY DANE MCDONALD
‘Vampire Academy’ Zoey Deutch, Lucy Fry, Danila Kozlovsky BApparently director Mark Waters and his brother, scriptwriter Daniel Waters, know how to mix — and mess — things up. “Vampire Academy” is served like a farrago with all the ingredients from “Twilight,” “Harry Potter” and “Mean Girls” all boiled together. But the Waters boys use 104 minutes to show everyone that things that have been slowly simmering do not always taste the most satisfying. Based on author Richelle Mead’s bestselling young-adult series, “Vampire Academy” presents the story of two girls. Rose Hathaway, played by Zoey Deutch, is a half human-half vampire guardian, or Dhampir, in training. She is the best friend of a Moroi, a peaceful and mortal vampire, princess, Lissa Dragomir (Lucy Fry). The two girls are sent back to St. Vladimir’s Academy, the hidden
