DOUBLING THE STANDARDS IU pre-med pr students face new MCAT exam with 3 added subjects, almost 3 extra hours

By Alyson Malinger afmaling@indiana.edu | @aly_mali

Pre-medical students, in order to be accepted into medical school, must take the Medical College Admissions Test prior to applying.

Normally the test has been set up in a 144-question format in three hours and 20 minutes. Starting in May, however, the new MCAT will consist of 230 questions over six hours and 15 minutes in addition to other supplemental material and graphic analysis.

The American Association of Medical Colleges has made the change to implement other subjects that they believe to be necessary for aspiring physicians.

These additional subjects include biochemistry, introductory psychology and sociology, added to the eight courses already covered within the exam.

This newly implemented approach is better formatted to how students will study in medical school and one day prepare for their medical board exams.

“Students will require a greater amount or stamina and endurance to get through this new test,” said Owen Farsy, MCAT curriculum leader at Kaplan Test Prep.

Farsy has already started teaching classes that help prepare students for this new exam. No one knows what the new exam will look like, but the earlier students start to prepare by including the newly added material, the more leverage they will have when the exam finally approaches.

From the perspectives of the medical schools, admissions officers are not entirely sure how they will treat the test. The new test is designed for the upper-middle percent to shine and take emphasis off of the elite students.

“The test is never the sole decider to get into medical school,” Farsy said.

“It tries to test if the student will be able to stand up to the academic rigors of medical school.”

Farsy said that in relation to the new material, most students will not see it as much of a challenge. Many students have taken at least one of the courses already within their individual prerequisites at their colleges and universities, so adding two more courses is not a large request.

“It’s about time the field of medicine has finally caught up to reality,” said Maneesh Tiwari, IU senior recently accepted to the University of Cincinnati Medical School.

The downfall in this, nevertheless, is that the schedule for a premedical student is already so busy, Farsy said. If more courses are added to the workload, very few students will have room in their schedules to take a variety of electives.

Maurissa Amrhein, junior microbiology major, was originally on the pre-medical track but switched, with the change in the test a contributing factor.

“I hated continually adding classes all just for one test,” Amrhein said.

With a lack of electives, a lack of diversity is bound to occur, which presents a problem for admissions counselors.

Counselors particularly look for students that have a vibrant academic background outside of the medical sciences. This will deter them from finding these desired backgrounds.

“We know pre-med students are extremely motivated students regardless, and alternative career paths would rarely come into play with this change,” Farsy said.

At IU, pre-medical students are highly encouraged to take all of the courses, including the newly added sciences, regardless of the new test.

According to data reports collected by Kaplan Test Prep, last year alone, 253 IU undergrads applied to medical school, making IU one of the largest pre-med population centers in the country.

Following the exam, a brief survey will be included to build up a data set in response to the change. Students, after sitting for more than six hours, will have the opportunity to fill out this survey and voice their comments and concerns in relation to the exam.

Registration for the spring exam opened Wednesday, and the next exam registration will open around late April for the summer testing dates.

“We are designing a curriculum from the ground up and seeing what is successful for students and what is not,” Farsy said. “It is truly a giving force in order for students to be successful.”

Hoosiers play complete game against Illini

By Brian Gamache bgamache@indiana.edu | @brgamache

“Tourism” might not be the first word that comes to mind when someone talks about Indiana, but the industry was big business for the state in 2013, according to several new studies.

The state saw an extra $10.3 billion come in from tourism during 2013, according to a report released by the Indiana Office of Tourism Development.

Tourism was the sixth largest industry in Indiana in 2013, supporting more than 187,000, or around 4.7 percent, of the state’s jobs, according to the report.

Tourism not only brought dollars to the state, but also to Bloomington.

“Tourism is huge for the city,” Mike McAfee, director of Visit Bloomington, said.

McAfee, who has been in the industry for 20 years and in Bloomington for eight of them, spoke about why tourism was so important in Bloomington.

“IU is the most recessiontough attraction in the state of Indiana,” McAfee said. “We always call IU our Disneyland.”

Bloomington brings in tourism dollars through university events, sporting competitions, conferences and leisure trips, McAfee said.

“Spending on a Big Ten football game is $3 to 5 million,” McAfee said, “The IU-related events have a big impact.”

Sporting events separate from IU were also a major source of tourism dollars, McAfee said.

“We’re a big home for amateur sporting tournaments,” McAfee said.

Total sales generated by tourism in 2013 for Monroe County were more than $300 million, according to a study conducted by Visit Bloomington.

The study was performed in conjunction with IU professor Shu Cole of the Department of Recreation, Park, and Tourism Studies of the School of Public Health and analyzed data from several surveys.

85-58

By Brody Miller brodmill@indiana.edu | @Brody_Miller_

IU’s 85-58 win against Illinois was reminiscent of some of its nonconference wins back in November and December.

There were full court heaves on fast breaks and players grinning as they backpedaled after hitting a 3-pointer. Everything was clicking for IU on Wednesday night.

While the nonconference wins have been attributed to a less than challenging schedule, Big Ten struggles have often been blamed on youth.

“There’s going to come a point where we don’t call them young anymore,” IU Coach Teri Moren said.

The Hoosiers have had strong first halves before. They were tied with Minnesota at the half and trailed Ohio State by one before losing to both.

The difference against Illinois was that IU continued their dominance throughout. The team did not allow the Fighting Illini to make a single field goal for the 8 1/2 minutes in the second half.

“We were waiting to have a night like this, and we have been so close,” Moren said. “It feels good, for our whole group, for our staff, but

especially for those players to come out and play both ends the way they did tonight.”

There was a moment late in the game in which freshman guard Jess Walter was running back to play defense and tipped a pass in the air that was making its way over her head.

IU did not get possession of the

ball for a steal, but Walter continued running with a grin on her face as if nothing could change the fact that IU was winning — and winning big.

That sums up how this game went for IU. SEE BASKETBALL, PAGE 6

Students gathered outside of Union Street Center’s auditorium Wednesday evening, equipped with heels and camera-ready hair, in the hopes of catching the eyes of junior and senior fashion design students.

Designers from the Fashion Design III: Presentation & Analysis class held a model call-out for the IU Fashion Design show, which takes place April 9. Selected models will walk in the show and work alongside designers throughout the semester.

Other than wearing fitted clothing and heels, there were no stipulations as to who could audition or what applicants needed to prepare. As soon as they walked in, the models were given an information sheet to fill out with height, shoe size, bra size and other general information.

Although no prior experience was necessary, many applicants were not strangers to the modeling game.

“I modeled for a local swimwear company where I’m from,” said Keegan Holle, an IU sophomore waiting for her number to be called. “I’m not really nervous.

Small concert draws students

By Bridget Murray bridmurr@indiana.edu @bridget_murray

Sophomore Tyler Rodino, a guitarist and vocalist for the band Postcard, stayed calm as he checked the equipment onstage a mere 20 minutes before their performance.

His band was peforming at Union Board’s Live from Bloomington Presents on Wednesday night.

LFB Presents is a series of small-scale concerts happening twice a month, programmed by the Live from Bloomington committee.

Postcard was the first band to perform, followed by local band Mighty Brother and student performer Biz Strother.

“This is the fun part of the job,” Rodino said, testing a mic.

Although they are three members short, Rodino and sophomore Akshay Athawale, who plays piano, are not timid when performing.

“It’s got that chill vibe,” he said. “We’ll make do.”

Astrid Mejia, director of

LFB for Union Board, said they hold these events to give local and student musicians a venue.

“We are mostly here to promote local artists and students and give them a place to perform,” she said.

The venue, Indiana Memorial Union Gallery, is a quaint stage opposite the cluster of tables and chairs in the IMU Starbucks. IMUG provides a relaxed atmosphere for performers and students alike, Mejia said.

“It is very much a relaxed atmosphere to appreciate the art of performance,” she said.

Mejia said the committee wants LFB Presents to grow beyond IMUG’s seating capacity.

Attendance is usually around 30 to 50 students, but they want to hold the event in a larger venue once interest in LFP Presents grows.

While some students stumble upon the event, a more purposeful audience has emerged at LFB Presents.

“We’ve had more people who come interested to see

LFB, which is what we want,” Mejia said.

As of now, Mejia said, social media and word of mouth are their main sources of promotion, but they hope to contact the Bluebird Nightclub and WIUX student radio to get the word out. This semester, she wants to incorporate more IU student artists. She said a jazz night with the Jacobs School of Music is in the works.

“It’s not just students and it’s not just artists from Bloomington, it’s them together,” she said.

It speaks to the student audience’s interests as well, she said, by exposing them to different kinds of music.

“One of the things they always ask for is more concerts,” she said. “We’re here to provide for what the students want.”

The audience, scattered at tables in IMUG, kept the mellow atmosphere afloat.

They did not object to an extra song in Postcard’s set, or the joke Athawale told to stall while Rodino tuned his guitar.

LFB PRESENTS 7 p.m. Feb. 24, IMU Gallery For more information about the concerts or performing, email lfb@indiana.edu Mejia said this event inspires and influences students to take a break from their day-to-day routine.

“It’s a little escape for them to enjoy and appreciate music,” she said.

Freshman Katie Leigh looked up from her laptop to listen to certain songs. She agreed that the concert was a needed distraction from her work.

“This has absolutely made my day,” she said.

Leigh had not heard of LFB Presents officially but said that more people should attend.

“I love music anyway,” she said. “So it just makes me really happy.”

Although the crowd came and went in waves, Rodino said the attention was not important.

“Publicity is nice,” he said. “But we just like making music.”

Professor to challenge laws on same-sex marriage From IDS reports

Maurer School of Law Professor Steve Sanders is teaming up with two others to file an amicus brief to the United States Supreme Court that argues state laws banning same-sex marriage are unconstitutional, according to an IU press release.

This particular amicus brief will argue the state laws commit Sanders “animus” — using the law to unjustifiably harm a group — against lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people, according to the press release.

Committing animus violates the Equal Protection Clause in the constitution.

Past briefs and cases regarding same-sex marriage

haven’t addressed animus, but instead argued about marriage being a fundamental right or that sexual orientation discrimination deserves “heightened scrutiny,” according to the press release.

Sanders is working on this brief with Robbie Kaplan, the attorney who won United States v. Windsor, which gave federal recognition to same-sex marriages, and Dale Carpenter, a professor at the University of Minnesota Law School.

Sanders and Carpenter were asked by Kaplan to join her because they are both top scholars in regards to animus.

“In our own scholarship and blogging, Dale and I have both explored in various ways how the legal concept of animus — that is, the desire to use the law to harm a group without sufficient justification — contributed

to the enactment of antisame-sex marriage laws in most of the country over a very short period of time,” Sanders said in a press release. “I’ve also written about how state laws that nullify existing legal samesex marriages inflict a particularly unjustified injury.”

The three lawyers found each other via Facebook, according to the press release.

“Robbie added me as a friend after she read an essay I had written for SCOTUSblog,” Sanders said. “And she had previously worked with Dale. It was Robbie’s vision that the three of us should collaborate on a brief that would make this animus argument directly to the Supreme Court.”

The Human Rights Campaign will submit the brief in March and has invited the public to read and sign it beforehand.

The lawyers chose the

HRC because of the organization’s efforts in ending anti-LGBT animus, according to the press release.

Thirteen states have yet to completely legalize samesex marriages or recognize same-sex marriages from other states, as well as some counties in Alabama, which are refusing a federal court order to start issuing samesex marriages.

Sanders has also written on other legal issues surrounding marriage equality and families headed by same-sex couples and is affiliated with IU’s gender studies and political science departments and the Kinsey Institute for Research in Gender, Sex and Reproduction, according to the press release.

Professor Gareth Evans, chancellor of the Australian National University since January 2010, has just been appointed the first diplomat in residence at the IU School of Global and International Affairs.

This is a groundbreaking addition to the school due to Evans’s vast array of experience in global relations, according to a press release provided by the school.

Evans will be in Bloomington from May 11-24, teaching an intensive seminar on diplomacy, participating in an international conference on campus on the Responsibility to Protect and meeting with students and faculty.

“I am extremely pleased that our students and scholars will have the opportunity to study and work with Gareth Evans, who is truly one of the most important voices in foreign policy today,” IU President Michael McRobbie said in a press release.

“Through his work in the areas of government service, academia and civil society, he has made major contributions to the dialogue and debate over some of the most critical issues facing today’s international society. I have no doubt students at our new School of Global and International Studies will greatly benefit from his unique perspective and experiences.”

Within his intended curriculum, Evans intends to show how international security happens, what strategies are most useful in dealing with these specific kinds of issues and what other organizations have a significant influence in this particular process.

Looking towards the future of international security, Evans remains essentially an optimist.

He said good policy-making can make a difference, and even though there is evidence of chaos and horror going on — with the number of genocides and mass-atrocity crimes as major illustrations — the world is still moving in

On-campus rape report confirmed by IUPD From IDS reports

The IU Police Depatrment’s Lt. Craig Munroe confirmed the reported rape that was from last Sunday.

“It was an actual rape, not an attempted rape,” Munroe said. “I was told that by investigations, yesterday.”

Earlier in the investigation there was confusion if the report was an attempted rape or a rape by force report. Unlike previous rape cases on IU’s campus, no crime alert was sent out in response to the incident.

“There was no immediate danger,” Munroe said.

“There was no reason to

believe that this would occur again with the same individual. It was something to do with the relationship between the two individuals involved.”

The case is still open.

The victim has yet to give a complete statement, Munroe said. The rape occurred between 10 p.m. Saturday and 8 a.m. Sunday, but was reported Sunday afternoon around 1 p.m. according to the police department’s daily logs.

the right direction.

“Basically the world has moved beyond from turning to arms,” Evans said. “I do think gradually we are better in dealing with these situations.”

Relative to the massive scale on which the deaths of the 20th century must be measured, Evans thinks the 21st will be an almost incomparable improvement.

Evans has previously worked in Australia as a Cabinet Minister in the Hawke and Keating Labor Governments, where he served as the Attorney General, Minister for Resources and Energy, Minister for Transport and Communications and Foreign Minister.

“I bring three kinds of experience to the table,” Evans said. “I have eight years of foreign ministry, nine years of conflict resolution and chair a wide range of higher-level governmental panels.”

As one of Australia’s longest serving foreign ministers, Evans was best known internationally for his roles in developing the U.N. peace plan for Cambodia, bringing to a conclusion the international Chemical Weapons Convention and founding the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation forum and ASEAN Regional Forum.

He also was at the forefront of originating the Canberra Commission on the Elimination of Nuclear Weapons.

Evans has always felt a need to look towards the future in hopes of a world without the need of arms.

Evans said he hopes to display other forms of diplomatic leverage, negotiating peace settlements and multilateral diplomacy and the roles that various commissions contribute.

He wants to show that contributing to policy and international relations can go beyond the formal governmental system.

There are many careers in the NGO realm that have global influence and embody missions that deal with topics related to international human rights and conflict prevention.

Sunday alcohol sales bill amended From IDS reports

A House bill that would allow the sale of alcohol on Sundays was amended in the Indiana House Public Policy Committee on Wednesday morning.

The proposed amendments on House Bill 1624 include restricting the areas within retail stores where alcohol can be displayed and age requirements for individuals to sell alcohol.

The bill, authored by Rep. Thomas Dermody, R-LaPorte, chairman of the

committee, provides that “a holder of an alcoholic beverage permit who is authorized by law to sell alcoholic beverages for carryout may sell alcoholic beverages for carryout on Sunday.” The authored bill proposes some time restrictions for sales.

Seventeen officials from a variety of interests across Indiana spoke either in support or in opposition of the bill and its amendments, although the number of people speaking in favor of the bill was greater.

Studies that were cited

suggested that the passage of the bill would result in either no effect or a negative effect on Indiana’s economy.

Several people spoke about the necessity to regulate alcohol differently than other consumer goods.

Patrick Tamm, a representative from the Indiana Association of Beverage Retailers, cited a survey in which “81 percent (of respondents) believe states should regulate alcohol because it is different from other consumer goods.”

Chairman of Indiana Association of Beverage

Retailers Greg Bush noted the need to regulate alcohol differently from other products.

“Alcohol isn’t like any other item,” Bush said. “It is addictive in excess, it can be harmful to the person using it.”

Grant Monahan, a representative from the Council of State Retail Associations, voiced his support for the bill.

“Customer convenience is the best reason to pass a Sunday sales law,” Monahan said in his comments on the

floor.

At this time, 12 states have laws in effect that ban the sale of alcoholic beverages for carryout on Sundays.

Matt Bell spoke on behalf of Big Red Liquors, claiming the need for responsible business practices in order to stifle any concerns for illegal alcohol use.

“Alcohol is the most used and abused drug in the United States,” Bell said. “So when we package and sell it, we have to be responsible.”

Trivia night at the Tap draws large crowds

By Lyndsay Jones jonesly@indiana.edu @lyndsayjonesy

Josh Zimmer stood against the wall, arms folded, and surveyed the crowds filling the Tap. “We probably have at least 175 people here,” Zimmer said.

It was Trivia Night, like it is every Tuesday and Wednesday at the bar.

Every table was filled, but Zimmer said the event was popular enough that teams sometimes stood along the walls just to participate.

“Sometimes we have maybe 50 to 70 more people here,” he said. “This is about an average trivia night.”

Zimmer said there were around 20 to 30 teams that played.

In a corner next to the door, a group of IU graduate students stood in a circle.

They made up a team: “Too Big to Fail.”

David Massie, one of the team members, said their name was optimistic.

“We won one time last semester, then we came in second, then we came in third,” Massie said.

Massie said the people

on his team were mostly geography and anthropology students.

“It’s an excuse for grad students to drink during the week,” Massie said.

His teammate Karli Schmidt agreed.

“We don’t need an excuse to drink on the weekend,” Schmidt said.

Massie said he believed there was a strategy to playing.

“I think the secret to doing well is when you are looking at things online when you are supposed to be doing something else, and remembering all of that,” Massie said.

Schmidt nodded.

Above the bar and the entire venue was the announcer and DJ, Colin Gregory. He sat under bright green lighting, explained the rules and delivered the questions in dramatic tones.

“Alright, for your first question in the first round, hoverboards replaced skateboards in this key scene from what film from the 1980s?”

Gregory said.

teammates.

“Does anyone know?”

They were at a loss. R. Kelly’s “Ignition” thumped in the background. Servers snaked their way to tables and dropped off glasses of craft beer.

When the song was over, Gregory announced the movie was “Back to the Future Part II.” Schmidt jumped up and yelled, “No!”

Other tables laughed and echoed choruses of “I knew it.”

Gregory announced the next question would be from a geography category.

Massie smiled.

“Yeah, we got this one,” he said.

Gregory put on a Rihanna song.

He said that he had been DJing and running the game for a year a half.

“I decided I needed extra money, so I got on Craigslist and this was the first job I applied to,” Gregory said. “They called me back, and I’ve been doing it ever since.”

Gregory is a senior at IU, studying biology.

“I like doing this a lot,” he said.

Council considers tax designations for Big O properties

By Neal Earley njearley@indiana.edu

The Bloomington City Council convened for a common council session Wednesday night at City Hall to discuss four pieces of legislation: three ordinances and a resolution.

The focus of the meeting concerned two pieces of legislation — ordinance 15-01 and resolution 15-01 — that, if passed, would grant special tax designations to Big O Properties.

Resolution 15-01 would designate Big O Properties an Economic Development Revitalization Area and grant the real estate company tax abatement, or delay on property taxes that are due to the city.

Big O is asking for the tax abatement because of

changes in their original plans that would increase the worth of their property on 338. South Walnut St., which would lead to an increase in their property taxes.

In addition, the resolution also is proposing EDRA. Indiana law allows for cities and other municipalities to designate places as EDRA for the purpose of encouraging development in less-than-desired locations.

Asked to attend the city council meeting for discussion of the pieces of legislation concerning Big O Properties was Danise AlanoMartin, director of economic development, and Jason Carnes, assistant director of small business relations.

Alano-Martin and Carnes both recommended the city council pass the resolution

and ordinance.

“The previous project by Big O Properties and this project will create additional density in this area that would support additional retail in this area and create more activity to support the existing businesses that are there and news businesses that will be there,” AlanoMartin said.

Big O also owns the building next to their proposed project, which AlanoMartin was referring to, at 340 S. Walnut St. Councilman Marty Spechler said he does not support proposed abatement for Big O Properties.

Fearful of establishing a precedent, he encouraged the council to vote now on the proposed legislation.

Others on the council said they support the pro-

posal, including members Dorothy Granger, Susan Sandberg and Chris Sturbaum.

In addition, Big O is seeking its 338 S. Walnut St. location to be designated an Economic Development Target Area through ordinance 1501.

Big O was founded in 1985 as a property management company. Mary Friedman is the principal owner of Big O. Friedman, who spoke up at the meeting, said the abatement would help her company work to do more services for future tenants.

The property in question is already located in Bloomington’s Tax Increment Financing district.

As of now, Big O tax obligation is $4,000 to the city, but after their plans to

build a three-story mixed use building are completed, their taxes are set to rise to $40,470.

In addition to Big O’s petition to the city council, two bond ordinances — 1502 and 15-03 — were on the docket at the meeting.

The Indiana Bond Bank is an entity that helps finance operations for cities and towns at a low cost.

The ordinances both concerning the city refinancing bond with the Indiana Bond Bank one sewage, the other concerning waterworks.

Brad Bingham, lawyer for the bond bank, said although the ordinances are separate, they’re similar.

If passed, the ordinances are predicted to save the city an estimated $520,000 on sewage works and $368,000 on waterworks.

Panel discusses nuclear program

By Lily Ross lilyross@indiana.edu

On Wednesday evening, the Monroe County Public Library hosted a forum to discuss nuclear negotiation with Iran.

The four panelist included former Indian Ambassador to Syria and Turkey, Rajendra Abhyankar, professor John Walbridge of IU’s Department of Near Eastern Languages and Cultures, Jim Cason of Friends Committee on National Legislation in Washington, D.C., and local activist David Keppel.

“Iran Nuclear Negotiations: Can We Strike a Deal – and Will Congress Support It?” was organized by the Bloomington Peace Action Coalition, the Just Peace Task Force of the Unitarian Universalist Church of Bloomington and Women’s International League for Peace and Freedom.

“We are at a crossroads between a potentially historic diplomatic solution and hawkish legislation that would impose new sanctions and push the United States into another disastrous war in the Middle East,” Keppel said.

Walbridge said before the event that the forum was scheduled in light of the fragile state the debate regarding Iran’s nuclear program.

“From a legal point of view, the Iranians have every right to have nuclear technology for peaceful purposes,” Walbridge said.

Walbridge was referring to the international legality of the Treaty on the Nonproliferation of Nuclear Weapons, which he said has two parts: the right of countries without a nuclear program to develop one and countries with a nuclear program to gradually disarm military use of nuclear weapons.

“Non-nuclear countries, i.e. ones that don’t have nuclear weapons, are guaranteed a right to possess and use nuclear technology as long as it is not used for military purposes,” Walbridge said.

Abhyankar said he agreed that Iran had a right to a nuclear program as stated in the NPT. He also brought up the ongoing pressure from Israel, a U.S. ally, as a reason Congress feels a need to sanction Iran’s nuclear program.

“There is a strong pressure from Israel, which as I said has a nuclear weapon but doesn’t want anyone else to have it,” Abhyankar said. “The question is how strong is this influence over United States policy?”

Or even worse, they reappropriate the word and use it pejoratively against us. Because of this, the word has become associated with qualities older generations falsely claim we possess, such as elevated feelings of self-importance and entitlement, laziness, narcissism, among others.

Time Magazine even called us “The Me Me Me Generation.”

Well, consider this my manifesto. The Millennial Manifesto.

Let’s begin with the assertion we are lazy. Many say we’re lazy because we’re moving back home to live with our parents after graduation instead of entering the “real world.”

The real world isn’t as easy as it used to be. The job market is so saturated with people with college degrees that they don’t mean much anymore.

But with this proliferation of college graduates comes the cold, hard fact that a degree is no longer optional if you want to work outside of the service or retail industry.

To make matters worse, manufacturing jobs are quickly dying. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, 6 million manufacturing jobs were lost between 2000 and 2009.

No longer is a high school diploma enough to get a well paying, secure, unionized, I’ve-worked-here-for-40-years factory job.

Now, to get a job, you have to have “experience.” And that’s just a fancy way of saying “unpaid internships with absolutely no guarantee of paid employment.” Millennials are the most educated generation ever, but it takes until an average of age 30 for us to reach the middle of the wage distribution, up from 26 in 1980.

Older generations — and Time Magazine — blame us for the problems of the bad labor market. No longer will I sit idly by while my generation is

treated as a scapegoat.

We’ve also been called “more narcissistic than previous generations,” according to one of my psychology professors sophomore year who will remain nameless. Every generic, misanthropic think piece — still looking at you, Time — cites the same tired studies that over-generalize and over-simplify what counts as “narcissistic behavior.”

One of these studies, conducted in 2008 by Jean Twenge, found that narcissistic behaviors among young people in this generation have significantly increased since the 1970s. But the problem with this is that Twenge used the incredibly broad, 40-question survey called the Narcissistic Personality Inventory to gather her data.

How does agreement with statements such as “I am assertive” or “I wish I was more assertive” qualify someone as narcissistic? The NPI is laden with questions like this, questions with answers that don’t really prove anything at all.

Time’s 2013 cover story mirrors the 1976 cover story of New York Magazine, in which Tom Wolfe dubbed the ’70s “The Me Decade.”

Millennials just seem more narcissistic because narcissism is a part of young adulthood; it’s not any different than when Gen X or the Baby Boomers were our age.

I could go on and on with this, but surpassing my word limit for this column would make me seem pretty entitled, wouldn’t it? Maybe if all these people criticizing my generation would actually take the time to talk to a millennial, they would discover that we’re not even that bad.

Maybe they would see that we’re not that all that different from how they used to be. zipperr@indiana.edu

Unnecessary leaders Not everyone can be the CEO. There is one CEO for every major corporation, each of which employs thousands of people. Yet so many of us are encouraged to be the CEO when often a leader is not necessary. Leadership ability has become, I believe, one of the most overemphasized characteristic traits in modern culture.

It’s no wonder it has. It ties into the mythos of American individualism, where the lone person — usually a man — achieves everything with enough hard work, perseverance and charisma, which naturally leads people to follow him.

In this mythos, leadership demonstrates more than a glorified managerial capability; it is the ability to create something out of nothing, to enact change or influence the history of a nation.

But why do we give all the credit to the leader when it would have been impossible without the followers?

Every application I have seen in the past few years, bar none, has asked me to describe a leadership experience even when leadership has essentially nothing to do with the position.

When applying to my building’s Leadership Council — sure, alright, Leadership Council — I was required to list leadership experience for my application for a secretary position when my only job by and large would be to take meeting minutes.

But, barring some absurdities, leadership ability holds vastly too much importance, mainly because everybody is encouraged to be a leader.

And if everybody ends up a leader, we are just going to have masses of people standing around trying to convince others to follow when they

Club’s goin’ up on a Sunday WE SAY: Sunday alcohol ban is archaic Recently there’s been some breaking news in regards to “breaking the seal,” on a Sunday. Historically, Sundays have been known for mellow afternoons full of football, homework and the occasional visit to church.

A bill has been introduced in the fine state of Indiana that proposes the sale of alcohol on Sundays.

If this bill were to be passed, there would be some major changes that would occur on IU’s campus.

It appears as though some are unaware that prohibition is over. It’s been over for 80 years actually, so it was about time Indiana caught up on the reading in its history textbook.

The current law prevents the sale of beer, wine and liquor to be sold at grocery and liquor stores in Indiana.

For liquor stores, it’s a no-brainer — they sell liquor. Because of this law, these local businesses are limited to having a six-day workweek. Store owners are forced to sit at home Sundays twiddling their thumbs, just counting all of the missed profits that they could be earning.

Imagine if other businesses were closed on Sundays. What if Chick-fil-A was closed on a Sunday? What kind of

pandemonium would that create?

Oh wait.

There are many explanations as to why the ban on Sunday alcohol sales should be eliminated. Here are just a few comical reasons why.

First off, students wouldn’t have to deal with hangovers from the night before. It’s common knowledge that the best way to cure a hangover is to drink more. It’s called a boozy brunch, full of bottomless mimosas and Bloody Mary’s.

Homemade brunch is the perfect excuse to day drink, and it’s got the added bonus of having bacon to wash it all down. Who doesn’t love that?

Along with brunch, alcohol sales would go up, and church attendance would go down.

We all know the only reason people attend church in the first place is for the free booze, even if it’s just a sip.

There would be the invention of “Frat Star Sunday” in which every frat would throw loud and obnoxious parties all day that would make attending Monday classes that much more difficult.

Police officers could do their jobs and pull over drunk drivers. Ironically,

the old law prevents the “new” law enforcers from finding the true criminals of Indiana.

Students will no longer experience the “Sunday night blues” due to Monday 8 a.m. class trepidation because they’ll still be drunk.

The weekend won’t technically be over until everyone’s fully sobered up.

The “Walking Dead Drinking Game” would be invented since people will finally be able to do a last minute run to the liquor store.

“Take one sip if your favorite character is killed,” “take another sip if your favorite character comes back to life as a zombie.”

Taco Bell and pizza sales would skyrocket, because they’re closely correlated to the sale and consumption of alcohol due to the late night “drunchies.”

Lastly, when you find a match on Tinder and end up spending Sunday night, it might be a blessing in disguise.

If you’re shacking closer to campus, the walk of shame just became far more convenient.

Just bring your backpack the night before, and you’re good to go.

Let’s face it, we don’t want dry Sundays. We want a dry martini.

SHELLING IT OUT are too busy trying to get people to them.

A leader is not a leader without a movement behind them.

With that in mind, why should everybody be required, or even encouraged, to be a leader?

There are so many other positions to fill and, even then, since when has the whole of humanity been divided into the binary of leader and follower?

It is far too easy to suppose that if you are not one, you’re the other because, certainly, the skills associated with leadership are not just in leaders.

But, once again, the presence of leadership skills among a large proportion of the population doesn’t necessarily make it inherently desirable to possess those skills.

Many times, I think “leadership ability” is understood to be synonymous with “capability” when, obviously, this is not the case. A person can often be successful in many careers without an ounce of leadership ability.

Even in collaborative business efforts, which career advisers would point to as being a pinnacle of white-collar leadership, there are only one or two leaders, with everyone else occupying vastly different roles.

So, in the end, leadership ability is great, but it is not some all-encompassing skill that proves the capability of the bearer of said ability.

Let’s not all try to be leaders because, if we do, nothing would ever get finished. allenjo@indiana.edu

Urban’s latest screw-up has gone too far Nothing says impropriety like hearing that Urban Outfitters has yet again caused a moral controversy with its new merchandise.

The company has created a gray and white-striped wall tapestry adorned with a pink triangle that all-too-closely resembles the clothing Nazis forced gay prisoners to wear in the concentration camps during the Holocaust. This adds to the list of a “vintage” faux-bloodstained Kent State sweatshirt reminiscent of the school’s 1970 massacre, an option to order an “Obama/Black” colored Tshirt and the ever-popular “Eat Less” graphic tee.

The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) has contacted Urban Outfitters urging them to pull the garb that is “eerily reminiscent of the Holocaust” off shelves immediately. In a press release on the organization’s website, ADL national director and Holocaust survivor

Abraham H. Foxman stated, “whether intentional or not, this gray and white-striped pattern and pink triangle combination are deeply offensive and should not be mainstreamed into popular culture.”

One would think after more than 14 racially provocative, improper and altogether insensitive controversies that have angered loyal customers, civil rights activists and minorities since 2003, Urban Outfitters would be forced to change its ways. As we have seen, however, that’s definitely not the case.

The indie clothing company markets toward teenage and 20-something “hipsters,” but I have yet to find one self-proclaimed flower child that believes mounting a neo-Nazi flag in their dorm room is a statement to modern day fashion.

But that’s just it: if the tapestry were to stay on the

store shelves, would shoppers even be aware of what they’re buying?

There’s surely a debate that customers who have purchased this tapestry had no idea that this abstract and minimalistic pattern had anything to do with one of the greatest tragedies in our history. The fault, either way, still falls on Urban Outfitters, who designed it with the specific Holocaust symbolism in mind.

I’m stuck on the fact that someone actually thought the design for the tapestry was fashionable and worth resurfacing, and that several other people thought it was okay to manufacture it, giving zero regard to the historical significance whatsoever.

Surely these frowned upon designs are receiving a plethora of media attention, causing more business to be brought to the company overall. But what exactly is causing that media

Shelbey Vanderbrouke is a freshman in journalism.

attention gives Urban Outfitters a pretty poor image when it comes to the world of professionalism.

These reoccurring insensitivities show nothing but irresponsibility radiating from a company I had once invested so much into, and as a loyal shopper to this overpriced yet fashionable clothing outlet, I’m starting to run out of excuses as to why it should keep my business.

Though this tapestry is being pulled from stores after the complaints and media attention it has received, it shouldn’t be long before another taboo design makes an appearance when Urban Outfitters decides to joke about yet another sensitive topic. snvanden@indiana.edu

MEN’S BASKETBALL

Ferrell comes up just short

By Sam Beishuizen sbeishui@indiana.edu @Sam_Beishuizen

All IU Coach Tom Crean could do was offer his star point guard a hug.

Twice Yogi Ferrell had a chance to win or force overtime against Maryland just before time expired, and twice the junior guard came up just short.

IU fell to No. 19 Maryland 68-66 in College Park, Md., despite 23 points from Ferrell. He connected on 6-of-9 shots from beyond the arc, but missed his final 3-pointer and the ensuing putback attempt at the buzzer.

After the final miss, Ferrell pounded both fists to the floor, looked up and let out a scream, but there wasn’t much else he could do. Crean soon greeted him, offering him an embrace before the two walked off the floor as the Terrapins (20-5, 8-4) celebrated their win.

It was a frustrating end to a game that saw IU (17-8, 7-5) fail to convert a few too many layups, botch a few too many dunks and miss a few too many wide-open looks in a game that came down to the final possession.

The loss is IU’s first in the Big Ten in a game decided by six points or less.

But for most of the night, Ferrell was the story. Prior to the final possession, he could

hardly miss, regardless of where he was shooting.

He banked in a 3-pointer with 14 seconds remaining to cut Maryland’s lead to just one point to give the Hoosiers a chance to win to begin with.

While his teammates were struggling to connect on shot attempts, Ferrell was routinely connecting on circus shots. He hit a few just before the shot clock expired and even finished a 4-point play on a corner 3-point attempt in the first half.

That type of success from beyond the arc became a

trend for the Hoosiers. They were more efficient beyond the arc shooting 40 percent than within it where they shot just 35.7 percent on 2-pointers.

Maryland shot 49 percent overall from the field and connected on 10-of-21 3-point attempts. Three different Terrapins scored in double-digits, led by Dez Wells and Melo Trimble, who both had 18 points.

Jordan Fuchs, the freshman tight-end-turned-forward who joined the Hoosiers Wednesday morning, did not play. Neither did

freshman forward Emmitt Holt, who instead sat on the bench while junior forward Hanner Mosquera-Perea and sophomores Troy Williams and Collin Hartman manned the post throughout the night.

The lead changed hands 18 times, including 12 times in the first half where the two teams combined to hit 11 3-pointers.

Maryland ultimately got the last laugh and is now tied with Ohio State for second place in the Big Ten. The Hoosiers fell to seventh place with six games left to play.

BASKET CASE

No moral victory, but still positives in loss Maybe the IU men’s basketball team just plays better against Maryland. In their best game of the season, the Hoosiers beat the then-No. 13 Terrapins 89-70 in Assembly Hall. Then, on Wednesday, Maryland returned the favor, winning 68-66.

The now-No. 19 Terrapins were healthy favorites to beat IU, but the Hoosiers played well and were in the game until the final possession.

I did not expect this game to be as close as it was.

Maryland has been brilliant at home and IU has had major struggles away from Assembly Hall.

I don’t believe in moral victories, but there were definitely some positives to take away from this one.

First, IU might have the best game-changer in the Big Ten in junior guard Yogi Ferrell.

Star freshmen falter in loss to Maryland

This is not news for IU fans or any dedicated Big Ten viewers, but Ferrell has elevated his game even further this season. Few players in the country have as much of an effect on their team’s offense as Ferrell. When he’s hot, IU is always in the game.

Another takeaway, IU actually played good defense.

Maryland did score 1.08 points per possession, which is above what IU Coach Tom Crean wants, but not a bad number considering how good Maryland is and how bad IU’s defense has been.

Regardless, the eye test is more important in this case, and IU looked pretty good on a lot of possessions. Maryland continually turned the ball over and struggled to get good shots. This time, Maryland’s hot shooting bailed them out.

The weird thing was, it

didn’t look like Maryland had made any adjustments from their first meeting. In both games, IU caught fire from deep. IU shot 10-of-25, 40 percent, from deep on Wednesday.

IU is learning to win close games and how important that has been for this young team. Wednesday’s game obviously doesn’t do a great job of backing up that claim, but the fact is, this game shouldn’t have been as close as it was.

IU missed at least five layups or dunks over the course of the game. And I don’t mean contested finishing-through-contact layups.

I mean easy buckets that you should count on a Big Ten player to make.

Crean said he can’t remember the last time his team missed two dunks and a layup down the stretch. I

Casey Krajewski is a senior in journalism.

can’t recall sophomore forward Troy Williams ever missing a dunk, and he missed two Wednesday.

That was obviously a fluke. It just so happened that the fluke cost them a game.

The loss will certainly affect IU’s seeding in the Big Ten Tournament — Maryland is one of the teams fighting IU for a double-bye — but there’s still no cause for concern.

The Hoosiers looked good on Wednesday, and they have an easy remaining schedule. IU will be just fine. crkrajew@indiana.edu

James Blackmon Jr. couldn’t get anything to go in.

Through more than 30 minutes of Wednesday’s game at Maryland, Blackmon — the Hoosiers’ leading scorer this season — had scored just two points. He was 1-of-12 from the field.

The freshman guard’s misses had come in a variety of ways: blocked layups, forced jump shots and a handful of 3-pointers that came heartbreakingly close to falling. He hadn’t gotten to the free throw line.

All Blackmon needed was to see himself make a shot.

With a faltering jumper, the only option was to force it through the rim himself.

And he did just that.

With 9:28 left to play, a rebound fell to junior guard Yogi Ferrell, who found a cutting Blackmon on the left wing. Blackmon pulled in the pass, took two steps and rose, finishing a dunk through Maryland forward Evan Smotrycz. He made the ensuing free throw to give IU a 48-47 lead.

It was just what Blackmon needed to get himself going.

Unfortunately for IU, things didn’t work out that way. He didn’t score again, finishing with just five points — tied for a career low — in the Hoosiers’ 68-66 loss.

In IU’s 19-point win against Maryland on Jan. 22, it got 22 points from its star freshman, who shot 3-of-5 from the 3-point range.

The same Blackmon didn’t make the trip to College Park, Md. He shot just 2-of-14 from the field and missed all five of his 3-point attempts in the loss.

Blackmon’s biggest miss came in the game’s final minute. With 45 seconds to play, he squared up for three in the right corner. A make would’ve given IU a 1-point lead, a miss would have left it down two and scrambling in the final possessions.

He was wide open.

He missed.

It was Blackmon’s final shot attempt of another forgettable night on the road.

MARYLAND 68, IU 66 Points Ferrell, 23 Rebounds Williams, 10 Assists Ferrell, 6

“You never can know if your offense is going to be with you on a given night, home or on the road.”

Tom Crean, IU Coach

In 15 career games in Assembly Hall, Blackmon has averaged 18.1 points. Away from Bloomington, that average drops to 12.6 points in eight contests.

The other freshman guard in IU’s starting lineup didn’t find much offensive success, either. Robert Johnson scored eight points, but shot 3-of-13 from the field, including 2-of-7 from 3-point range, in the process.

Only twice this season have the two freshmen combined to score fewer points than on Wednesday — a combined eight points against Butler and 11 at Ohio State.

Despite that, the struggles probably won’t worry them. They’re shooters at heart, and Blackmon has said before that slumps don’t affect IU’s confidence.

“I don’t think our shots are something we’re going to be worried on,” he said after IU’s Jan. 22 win against Maryland. “We know we’re going to get it going.”

IU Coach Tom Crean said offense will come and go.

What his shooters need to take control of is their effort and finding other ways to be productive, he said.

“You never can know if your offense is going to be with you on a given night, home or the road ... But you do know if you can control your effort, your resolve, the attitude of preparation that you bring and the toughness level, and I’m proud of the way they did that,” Crean said.

“We had some guys who didn’t shoot the ball very well, but at the end of the day, everybody played extremely hard and competitive in the game,” he said.

IU picked to finish fourth in Big Ten coaches poll From IDS reports

The Big Ten Conference released its annual coaches’ poll Wednesday, which predicted IU to finish fourth after winning back-to-back Big Ten regular season and Tournament titles.

The three teams picked to finish ahead of IU were Maryland, Nebraska and Illinois, respectively.

The poll also identified three players from each team selected as players to watch this season. IU’s are senior outfielder Scott Donley, junior pitcher Scott Effross and senior pitcher Ryan Halstead.

Donley was a first team All-Big Ten selection last season after batting .383 last season, hitting 16 doubles with a slugging percentage of .484.

Halstead is IU’s career leader in saves with 23 and the single season leader in saves with 11. He redshirted last season after tearing his ACL four games into the season.

Effross served as the team’s closer last season after Halstead’s injury, leading the Big Ten in appearances with 32. Effross will be a starter this season and is scheduled to start in IU’s

first game Friday at Stanford.

Conference newcomer Maryland is predicted to win the conference after a season in which it reached the Super Regionals, its first appearance in program history.

It also returns All-American infielder Brandon Lowe and pitcher Mike Shawaryn.

Nebraska was picked to finish second this season after being runners-up in both the regular season and Big Ten Tournament to IU last season. Nebraska returns unanimous All-Big Ten firstteam pitcher Chance Sinclair and All-Big Ten Freshman Team outfielder Ryan Boldt.

Picked to finish third in the Big Ten is Illinois, who returns 18 players from a team that went 32-21 last season and failed to qualify for the postseason. One of those returning players is junior pitcher Kevin Duchene.

Duchene posted an ERA of 1.80, best in the Big Ten last season.

Picked to finish fifth and sixth in the Big Ten were Michigan and Ohio State.

All Big Ten teams are scheduled to begin their seasons Friday.

Âť BASKETBALL

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 Shots were falling throughout, as IU shot 55 percent from the field, and whenever Illinois would make a big play or go on a run, the Hoosiers would answer right back without issue.

In those nonconference blowouts that IU would win consistently, players like freshman Maura Muensterman and senior Andrea Mize would get some minutes late in games.

Wednesday night, Muensterman checked into the game with two minutes remaining.

A fan was heard yelling, “It’s about time.�

When she scored on an inside hook shot, the crowd was as loud as it had been all night.

The result was not any different when Mize came in.

It has often been mentioned that all but two points for IU this season have come from either freshmen or sophomores. That statistic changed when Mize hit a 3-pointer with a hand in her face. “I’m just really proud tonight of this basketball team,�

Moren said.

They out-shot, out-rebounded and out-defended the Fighting Illini for 40 minutes, which has been tougher to come by in Big Ten play.

Freshman forward Amanda Cahill had 14 points and 10 rebounds for her first doubledouble since New Year’s Eve. Sophomore guard Larryn Brooks, who has had up-anddown games, finished with 14 points and five assists after making her first four shots.

The team clicked, and every player made a basket.

Now, the Hoosiers have six games remaining in the regular season and whether or not they can build off this win will be the question. “We have had a lot of moments where we’ve been discouraged,� Moren said. “For them to be able to come out tonight and play the way they did, I think, says a lot about the progress we have continued to make.�

Hoosiers solve Illini’s ‘buzz’ defense

By Grace Palmieri gpalmier@indiana.edu @grace_palmieri

IU had just two days to prepare for a defense it had never seen before.

Illinois runs “the buzz,� where defenders fly around, trying to disrupt the offense and trapping on every catch.

It’s almost a mix of a manto-man and zone defense.

Defenders don’t have an assigned player to guard, they’re just guarding the ball.

IU Coach Teri Moren turned to colleagues that had faced the buzz before in preparation to attack that particular defense.

And Wednesday night, IU had a formula that worked: passing, passing and more

tourism looks good, McAfee said. “We’re promoting Bloomington to people of all types,� McAfee said. “We continue to see high growth.�

The overall state picture was healthy as well. “The economic impact report for 2013 shows that Indiana’s travel, tourism and hospitality industry continues to grow and have a significant impact on the Hoosier economy,�

Lt. Gov. Sue Ellspermann said in a press release.

Tourism in the state grew from 2012, a year that included a boost in spending from Super Bowl XLVI, marking significant growth. “Tourism is big business in Indiana and every Hoosier household benefits from a robust tourism economy,� Mark Newman, IOTD’s executive director, said in the press release.

The report was conducted by Rockport Analytics, a research company, and was compiled with data from national, state, local and commercial sources, according to the press release.

The report defined tourism as an overnight stay or a trip that is greater than 50 miles away, according to the press release.

Despite popular opinion, the money says there is more than corn in Indiana. “People ask, ‘Is Bloomington a place I want to live and work and play?’ and the answer is always a pleasant surprise,� McAfee said.

I’m sure once I get up there I will be.�

After each number was called, models headed toward the photographer to have both a front and profile shot taken. Directly following the photographer, a table of designers stood ready with pink measuring tapes to jot down various measurements.

The judging panel comprised five fashion design students from the class, and two videographers were placed on either side of the judges’ table to capture the models’ walks and poses.

Models were not scored, but merely captured on camera and viewed by designers to gauge a sense of their walk and style.

A long succession of red curtains divided the room between the waiting area and the “catwalk.� Other than the few models on deck, only the judges and videographers were able to see the models during their audition. The division was instrumental in creating a sense of ease for applicants.

The relaxed, casual environment of the event was a far cry from the cut-throat atmosphere one might envision on popular television shows such as “Project Runway� or other dramatized versions of the fashion industry.

Although women dominated the scene, a number of men showed up for the call-out, as well. “I’ve modeled a few times for a friend who does a lot of art photography, so it’s interesting to see opportunities like this on campus,� IU sophomore Bryant Mehay said. “I plan to be the only

passing. They had a total of 23 assists in a 85-58 win against Illinois on Wednesday night in Assembly Hall.

Moren knew poise and composure on offense would be key to beating the buzz. “It’s not ordinary,� Moren said of Illinois’ defense. “It’s something that you don’t have to go against very often. I just thought, especially in the first half, our ball movement was tremendous.�

Oftentimes the Hoosiers were making the extra pass, even when it wasn’t needed.

At one point in the second half, sophomore guard Larryn Brooks got a steal and threw a baseball pass ahead to Karlee McBride on the other end of the court. It was a 2-on-1 situation where she

could’ve taken the layup herself. Instead, she passed it off to Tyra Buss for the score.

McBride said IU’s goal was to pass quickly around the perimeter on offense to make the Illini tired. Making the extra pass comes naturally with a big lead, she said.

Getting steals — the Hoosiers finished with nine of them — and scoring in transition was just a bonus. “I love giving the ball to my teammates,� McBride said. “It gets the crowd going, it just brings a lot of energy.�

The Hoosiers scored 18 points off turnovers and outscored Illinois 9-0 in fast break points. As usual, it all started with shooting.

The Hoosiers were 55 percent from the floor, including

making 13 of 23 attempted 3-pointers. Brooks and freshman forward Amanda Cahill, who was an uncharacteristic 2-of-2 from three, each scored 14 points. McBride had 13, and Buss added 11. “Once we started to share the ball and shots were falling,� Moren said, “it seemed like it transferred over to anything we were running.�

While the Hoosiers hit shots to open games against Northwestern and Ohio State in the past week, that consistency didn’t carry over to the second half. The offense fell flat and the defense followed.

And it resulted in two close losses, by six and eight points.

Against the Illini, that wasn’t the case. IU opened the second half 4-of-5 from

the field and shot 60 percent from three in the final 20 minutes. By the end of the game, every player in the lineup had scored.

Brooks said they focused on making sure when shots aren’t falling, it doesn’t effect the rest of the game.

They’re learning from past mistakes, Moren said. “This tells us what we’re capable of,� she said. “Now, can we do it night in and night out, whether we’re in Assembly Hall or on the road.�

With candidates of completely different shapes, sizes and experiences, the designers will have a variety of individuals to choose from.

Some designers were looking for certain types of models, depending on the theme or mood of their collection. “I’m doing menswear, so I’m looking for men,� said Cierra McNeal, a junior fashion design student. “I’m looking for someone manly, not too pretty, with a nice smooth walk.�

All of the designers are constructing three to five looks, so each will require three to five models. McNeal explained that some of the designers have considered sharing models.

Following the show, designers will deliberate next Monday to discuss the auditions and make their final decisions. Models can expect to be notified by their designers sometime next week. “It has been a lot more efficient, and things seem to be running a lot more smoothly than last year,� said Gabriel Fickenscher, this year’s codirector of Fashion Show for Retail Studies Organization.

Fickenscher explained no one had been a returning host for the show last year, so this year it is helpful to have a few veterans in the process, herself included.

Find your fortune T V

DY Sheldon and Amy “The Big Bang Theory” These two moms have a lot on their hands: two busy jobs and five kids to look after. To them, Valentine’s Day is a break from the daily grind and a time to finally have some peace and intimacy. These two are either looking at a nice dinner at a favorite restaurant or cooking something up at home for just the two of them.

No one and nothing has ever loved the way the 10th Doctor loved Rose Tyler. Their romance quite literally transcends space and time. So where is the Doctor taking his favorite companion? Anywhere she wants.

A picnic on the moon, attending the first ever performed ballet.

There are no limits for Rose and her Doctor.

Stef and Lena “The Fosters”

7 Leslie and Ben “Parks and Recreation”

Amy and Sheldon don’t conform to the standards of a typical relationship, and they have far more important things to do than worry about Valentine’s Day. These two are going to go about their normal days. They’ll likely end the evening together with some local Chinese food and a “Star Trek” marathon.

Leslie and Ben aren’t your conventional couple, so a normal Valentine’s Day is off the table. These two are going to have some fun trying activities they’ve never done together: roller skating, karaoke with some classic duets, maybe a hot air balloon expedition. Ending the day with waffles and whipped cream is guaranteed.

‘Allegiance’ strays from spy tropes ‘Allegiance’ Grade: B Replacing “Parenthood” in NBC’s Thursday primetime lineup is the mysterious “Allegiance,” and it has some serious potential.

Telling the story of a family of secret Russian spies, the “Allegiance” pilot changed the way I think about espionage programs.

Time and time again, TV programs and film have represented secret Russian spies as characters out to get Americans — consider the Cold War period.

“Allegiance” is different because it brings the protagonists and antagonists under one roof and in one family.

It’s not an “us versus them” or a scenario of the “haves and the havenots.” It’s a complicated identification process.

This is not FX’s show “The Americans,” although it could be said the basis of the Russian spy plot of “Allegiance” does seem heavily influenced by “The Americans.”

Here’s the scenario: Katya and Mark O’Connor, played

by Hope Davis and Scott Cohen, are ex-SVR spies.

Katya, a Russian native, fell in love with Mark, an American, and in the style of “Romeo and Juliet,” these star-crossed lovers found a way to be together.

The SVR is the Russian equivalent to the CIA. They relinquished their duties six years prior to the series start in order to live a normal, legal American life.

Their son, Alex O’Connor, played by Gavin Stenhouse,

is a new CIA recruit and unaware of his parents’ affiliations with the SVR. And if you didn’t already see this coming, Alex’s first task is to handle an SVR agent’s wish to defect to the United States.

There is an index of SVR agents, past and present, hidden somewhere in the country.

Just as I was about to write off the show in its entirety, we learn that Katya and Mark have been told by an old friend they must convert Alex into a spy or their hidden SVR identities will be given up.

So begins a game of cat and mouse between parents and son.

Though the premise of this show might at first glance induce eye rolls, it has the potential to be different.

Writers and directors can only go so far in a pilot episode and keep it coherent, and, let’s face it, “Allegiance” can have some pretty intricate, intense plot lines if the show’s creators take it in the right direction.

A show goes one step further when the viewer doesn’t know whether to hate or pity the enemy, and “Allegiance” doesn’t quite give us a clear view as to who the real enemy may be.

“Allegiance” seems to be trying to rid itself of the stale Russian-spies-versusAmerican-spies plot line and increase its variation.

There is no evidence of a brutal Cold War completenuclear-annihilation plot, but rather a revamping of old rivalries in a new century.

MOVIESTILLS DATABASE

Poor plot fails to capture audience ‘Jupiter Ascending’ Grade: CIt’s not that difficult to make a film about aliens look interesting. You’re introducing an entirely different kind of life form, and usually some kind of advanced technology complete with flashy lights and funny noises. And if that doesn’t rock your space socks, there’s always the compelling and somewhat tragic interspecies romance to keep you hostage.

Toss Channing Tatum and Mila Kunis into the mix and you’re guaranteed a sexy intergalactic tale.

“Jupiter Ascending” had all of this and still managed to become a 127-minute disappointment so embarrassing Pluto doesn’t even want to be considered a planet in our solar system anymore. Pluto is moving to the galaxy next door, where directors and producers understand that plot and purpose are just as important as pretty special effects and beautiful faces.

Mila Kunis stars as Jupiter

Jones, an overworked young woman in Chicago disappointed with her life.

Jupiter grows to appreciate how simple her life was when she’s attacked by aliens. It turns out Jupiter is no mere human, but the reincarnation of the matriarch of the House of Abrasax, one of the most powerful noble families in the galaxy.

Enter our knight in black leather and hover boots, Caine Wise, played by Channing Tatum. Caine is a genetically engineered soldier hired to track down Jupiter and bring her back to space to reclaim her title as a respected member of the extraterrestrial bureaucracy.

As if finding out you’re an alien isn’t stressful enough, Jupiter is then swept into a complex system of politics and business, endangering her own life, her human family and all of Earth.

“Jupiter Ascending” screws itself over with a plot that is simply too much to handle. It seems as though the writers, Andy and Lana Wachowski, made a list of the weirdest film tropes possible and then threw darts to decide which ones they should use.

“Aliens. Awesome.”

“Sweet, I got reincarnation.”

“Ah, dude, Oedipus complex. This is going to be so good.”

“Human harvesting. We are so getting an MTV Movie Award for this.”

Usually when you have a rough plot, you can rely on decent acting to carry you through, but the leading cast of “Jupiter Ascending” provided no such lifeboat.

Though both actors have had their fair share of dramatic roles, Kunis and Tatum are primarily comedic actors. Kunis will forever be associated with “That ’70s Show” and no one will ever forget Tatum in “21 Jump Street” — mainly because they won’t stop making the damn movies.

Tatum was well-suited for the amount of action “Jupiter Ascending” required of his role, but Kunis was not. Her action sequences were rough, her fight scenes stiff and I have never seen someone jog so slowly through a burning space palace in all my life.

If you’re thinking of going to see “Jupiter Ascending” for the steamy relationship between Kunis’s and Tatum’s

characters, let me save you the trouble right now and tell you that you would find more chemistry between a pencil and a seashell.

However, let’s all give a big round of applause to Eddie Redmayne for his role as Balem Abrasax, the malicious businessman of the Abrasax family.

Redmayne drops his boyish charm to cloak himself in the careful demeanor of true villain. He changes everything from his hesitant way of moving, the picture of barely-contained sanity as he plots the end of Earth.

The romance between Jupiter and Caine looks so forced it feels like you’re being squeezed through a swirly straw while watching it unravel.

Though visually stunning, “Jupiter Ascending” fails to deliver a clear plot to follow. You are left with several questions in the end, questions you’ll probably be content with wondering about forever because the only thing scarier than the unknown is the threat of a sequel.

John Stewart announced Tuesday night that he will leave his anchor position at the “Daily Show” after a 16-year run, according to The New York Times.

Stewart’s “Daily Show” career launched in

1999. In the years since, he has turned the show into an “influential platform for news and media commentary, both in the United States and around the world,” according to the New York Times.

Musicology department hosts Samuel Jones lecture

By Rachel Rosenstock rarosens@indiana.edu @rachrosenstock

The IU musicology department invited Bowling Green State University Professor and Assistant Dean of the Department of Musicology and Ethnomusicology Mary Natvig to speak as the next installment of their ongoing speaker series.

Natvig spoke on early 19th century Toledo, Ohio, Mayor Samuel “Golden Rule” Jones.

Natvig presented to a small crowd made up mostly of musicology graduate students and faculty Wednesday night at the Jacobs School of Music.

“Jones molded Toledo into an exemplar of musical progression,” Natvig said.

Jones was elected mayor four times in the late 19th century and pushed for social reform throughout his service.

He was independently successful through his company, Acme Sucker Rod, and used his influence to promote the social gospel and music education.

“He pushed forward the idea of music in the public

park,” Natvig said.

Jones sponsored the Golden Rule Band, made up of workers interested in music, and created the Golden Rule Park in Toledo as a space for live music and promoting social reform.

“No single movement has created more music than the eight-hour workday movement,” Natvig said.

Jones used his power as mayor to promote this movement and wrote the lyrics to “Divide the Day,” for which his wife wrote the music. Graduate student Kate Altizer performed the song on the piano, and Natvig led the crowd in song.

“You see this person who is a real activist in the 19th century to bring music and to teach music in very interesting ways for moral education, for it to be able to allow people to develop certain kinds of skills, to make them feel like full citizens in society,” Judah Cohen, assistant professor of musicology, said.

Cohen said the goal of the lecture series is to not only benefit the graduate musicology students but also feature speakers who appeal to other groups

on campus.

“We have people coming from other departments within the Jacobs School, including music theory and many of the instrumental programs, composition programs, as well as the rest of campus,” Cohen said.

Jones’ grand-daughter in-law, Anne ShelbourneJones, attended the event after she heard of Natvig’s intensive research.

“One of the things we most admire about him is his beliefs were coherent with his action,” Shelburne-Jones said.

She shared several anecdotes from her family’s history and spoke on the admiration that still lives on for “Golden Rule.”

Natvig continually highlighted Jones’s determination to better the lives of workers in Toledo up until his unexpected death in 1904.

She ended on a personal note, with beliefs she shares with Jones and how the importance of music is still playing a large role in social life.

“We recognize the power of music to change people’s lives,” Natvig said.

the couch.

I know many men and women who have come to feel better about their genitals because they shared their insecurities with their partner, and that gave their partner a chance to let them know how much they love their body.

You don’t have to love your penis to the point where you sing songs or write poetry about it, but it can make a meaningful difference when you finally learn that you are more than your genitals. A lot of the pleasure that people get from sex is about the connection and the intimacy.

Focusing on that may help create satisfying bonds and richer experiences of sex.

BLOOMINGTON’S BEER AUTHORITY

In Stelling’s case, he said, those things are clever timing and an impeccable use of silence.

However, these talents are lost on audiences that chatter or fail to pay attention during performances, Thompson said.

“That’s one of the things that makes (Stelling) a really great fit here in Bloomington, is that our audiences are not going to step on her, and that’s such a key, key part ... being able to feel comfortable to do what you do,” Thompson said.

Stelling’s past visits to Bloomington were in June 2013 and July 2014.

Thompson said the most noticeable change from one show to the next was an increase in confidence that made witnessing her perform an unforgettable experience.

“An audience is going to be way more captivated by somebody who has control of the stage than they are of someone who doesn’t know where they’re going to go next,” Thomson said. “She has the stage presence of someone who’s been doing comedy a lot longer than she has.”

“Valentine’s Day Weekend with Beth Stelling!” will debut Thursday at 8 p.m. and continue throughout the weekend with shows at 8 p.m. and 10:30 p.m. both Friday and Saturday.

Thompson said he could see Stelling becoming the “next big thing” in comedy.

“We book almost exclusively people who, at any given second, could get a break,” Thompson said. “And she fits that role as good as or better than anybody else.”

8PM

I’ve heard you say that, generally speaking, it is men’s worries about their penis size that holds them back sexually, rather than their penis size itself. I definitely have this issue and have been trying to psych myself out of the mentality for years. Is there any way to help? Side note: I’m completely aware that being bullied by my dad plays a huge role in my struggles with the opposite sex. But, even in understanding that, I still can’t boost my self-esteem.

Yes, this is true for body image generally, too — how we feel about our bodies has a bigger impact on how our body parts themselves look.

This is a powerful statement.

It means that it’s not how much or how little fat we have that makes for good sex, it’s how we feel about our bodies. And it’s not how long or short a man’s penis

is, or what it looks like, but how he feels about his penis and his sexuality.

If you’d like a homework assignment, try watching the documentary “Private Dicks,” which shows interviews with a number of men of all ages about their relationship to their penis.

You can stream it online and you might just identify with some of the feelings expressed.

You might even feel a little weight lifted off your shoulders hearing other men voice similar worries or anxieties you’ve had.

If you are still struggling with issues stemming from how your dad treated you, you might consider checking out counseling or therapy. Some men resist this, but talk therapy can be great for a lot of people.

And if you have a partner, consider opening up to your partner. Telling your partner how you feel about your penis gives her or him the chance to tell you how awesome your penis is or how great you make your partner feel during sex or even just while cuddling on

What do Mindy Kaling, Sarah Silverman and Beth Stelling have in common?

All have been featured on Huffington Post’s “Top 18 Funny Women You Should Be Following on Twitter.”

Stelling, a stand up comedian with roots in Chicago, is taking the stage this weekend at the Comedy Attic. She has performed there twice in the past two years.

“If you don’t have a valentine, I can help you laugh at that,” Stelling tweeted to her 11,000 followers in reference to her upcoming show in Bloomington.

Stelling has been a guest on “Conan”, “The Pete Holmes Show” and “Chelsea Lately,” according to her website. She also “won the Internet” by competing with other comedians on the latenight Comedy Central show “@midnight,” hosted by Chris Hardwick.

Comedy Attic Owner Jared Thompson said holidays like New Year’s Eve and Valentine’s Day tend to draw larger crowds, but he tries to bring in the best show possible regardless of what weekend it is.

“Beth is someone who we know we can trust to put on a show that people are going to really enjoy,” Thompson said.

As a woman, Stelling is a rarity in the world of comedy. The industry is largely male-dominated — in fact, not one woman broke into Forbes’ Top Earning Comedians of 2013.

Thomspon said there’s no doubt that comedy is a “boys’ club,” but that

Stelling is the perfect example of someone capable of changing that because of her high level of talent. He said watching her was akin to watching anyone else “at the top of their game,” such as Rory Skovel or Todd Barry.

Some comedians use the fact that they are a man or woman in their routines to try to fit into a niche, Thompson said.

“It’s rarer and rarer that somebody can just simply be funny without there being some sort of hook or angle,” he said.

Thompson praised Stelling for bypassing this trap and focusing on just being good at comedy.

“She’s just taking the 45 minutes she’s on stage and doing everything that she can to make sure that the show is great,” Thompson said. “To me, that’s the most feminist thing you can do.”

The Comedy Attic tries to bring in a diverse group of performers regardless of gender, race or sexual orientation, Thompson said.

“If you’re continually putting straight white males on stage over and over and over again then you’re going to run into audiences not knowing how to respond when you try something different,” he said. “So we try not to fall into those traps.”

Thompson said Stelling has a way of standing out among others who have visited the Comedy Attic. He said this is a definitive challenge as they continue to book the top 5 percent of comedians.

“You have to have things that you do better than most people,” Thompson said.

New Kid Ink album lacks any originality ‘Full Speed’ Kid Ink Grade: C-

TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

‘The Walking Dead’ is off-pace ‘The Walking Dead’ Grade: D+ Season four of “The Walking Dead” was amazing — one of the best seasons of television I’ve ever seen.

The first half of season five was pretty damn good, too.

But the mid-season premiere?

Snore-fest.

It took 25 minutes for a character to die.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m sad that Tyreese is now chilling with his hallucination buddies in the after-bite life, but “The Walking Dead” took one of my favorite things about the show and did the exact opposite.

The best part of the show is when something big

happens that makes you ask “What in the world?” and then gives you no time to recover.

Remember when Beth Greene died?

Boom. Shot through the head. Dead.

Remember when Lizzie Samuels killed her sister?

Tyreese and Carol were taking a walk, and then boom. Dead little girl.

“The Walking Dead” is great at screwing with its audience and throwing some crazy stuff at us by giving us no foreshadowing and no time to recover. It’s like a roller coaster where you can’t see what turns are coming and you have no time to catch your breath.

I can understand if this drown-out treatment was for one of the main characters — Rick Grimes, Carl Grimes, Carol, Daryl

Dixon, Glenn Rhee or Maggie Greene.

But Tyreese was not one of the main characters.

It shouldn’t take him this long to die. It slows down the show and takes away the frantic pacing that makes “The Walking Dead” irresistible.

As for the rest of the episode, it was kind of boring.

The entire group goes to Virginia to try and reunite Noah with family and potentially find a new place to settle down. But they get to the gated community and everybody is dead.

Darn.

And some of the corpses have been cut in half — super weird, by the way.

At the end of the episode, they decide to go to Washington, D.C., to see what’s up in the nation’s

capital. So at least we now have something to look forward to.

This episode reminded me of what this show needs most — a villain.

Whether its Shane Walsh, the Governor or the cannibals, that’s when the show is at its peak. We all know there’s going to be some sort of a villain this season — I just hope they don’t take too long to introduce him/her/them/it.

It’s a basic fact of storytelling. You need conflict in order to compel your audience. I hope for the rest of season five, “The Walking Dead” gives us what it’s done in the past: frantic pacing and somebody to hate.

Eye patch is optional.

Evan Hoopfer

Kid Ink has the formula figured out, if you ask me.

In his third album, “Full Speed,” the Los Angeles rapper continued his climb up the pop charts. Kid Ink puts below-average lyrics on above average dance club beats and collaborates with popular stars, such as Usher, Chris Brown and Migos.

It’s a game plan just crazy enough to work.

“Full Speed” isn’t particularly impressive. Most Kid Ink songs sound relatively the same. You throw a bunch of synthetic sounds with a bit of bass, snapping and horns, and congratulations — you have a Kid Ink track.

I’m not trying to throw Kid Ink under the bus. Because let’s be real, I could listen to “Body Language” repeatedly without getting tired of it.

The upbeat sounds and simple lyrics give you just enough to start bobbing your head until your friend catches you and goes, “Hey, is that Kid Ink featuring Usher that you’re jamming to wearing that Tupac sweatshirt?”

“Um, no man, you’re crazy,” you respond, laughing it off as you quickly try to shuffle your iPod. Don’t worry though, you’ll go back and listen to it again later. Because once you get hooked on Kid Ink, it’s hard to stop.

Kid Ink knows that. He’s obviously studied his previous success with singles such as “Main Chick” and “Show Me.” It feels, and sounds, as though he basically tried to replicate those songs 12 times to make

an album.

“Full Speed” has only 12 tracks and lasts for about 40 minutes. It’s a quick listen that mostly blends together until Migos randomly joins the fun on the eighth track, “Every City We Go.” “Every City We Go” was the track I had to return to more than the others. If I had to guess, I’m assuming it shows the route Kid Ink will be heading down the line because it doesn’t sound entirely like a cookie-cutter hip-hop track.

The album, like the title would prompt you to believe, is mostly fast-paced. The majority of the songs finish in less than three minutes and 30 seconds and sometimes blend together.

“Body Language” feels like the standout song on the album, which makes sense considering its success on popular radio. If you’ve already heard the track featuring Usher and Tinashe, you can get the picture for the rest of the album.

Kid Ink is approaching 30 now, and soon “kid” will begin to fade like the tattoos he’s got covering his face, arms, hands and torso.

I’m not entirely sure he’s got the lyrical ability to mature and stay relevant much longer unless he continues to get carried by the likes of Usher and Trey Songz.

So I guess you could say Kid Ink got his money’s worth in “Full Speed.” There’s a certain point in life where you can’t continue rapping about all the attention women give you at the club.

That point is rapidly approaching for Kid Ink. Sam Beishuizen

Prequel to ‘Breaking Bad’ is impressive “Better Call Saul” Grade: A AMC is the network known for producing “Mad Men” and “Breaking Bad,” two of the most critically acclaimed shows in recent history.

The network then added “The Walking Dead,” which became one of the mostwatched shows in the nation.

All of this brings me to a singular point: AMC’s pretty good at selecting and airing quality TV shows.

“Better Call Saul” is the newest member of the spectacular AMC programming family.

A sort-of-prequel to “Breaking Bad,” “Better Call Saul” focuses on the popular

TAP INTO THE

ACTION

character Saul Goodman, a criminal lawyer with a dark side.

The show takes place before the meth manufacturing in “Breaking Bad” as it shows how Jimmy McGill, played by Bob Odenkirk, becomes renowned lawyer Saul Goodman.

A fellow “Breaking Bad” actor, Jonathan Banks, who plays Mike Ehrmantraut, enforcer and Goodman’s handyman, joins Odenkirk.

“Better Call Saul” has brought in a new cast of actors to flesh out the New Mexico town, including Rhea Seehorn as Kim Wexler.

The dark comedy of its predecessor is a significant part of “Better Call Saul,” along with an interesting character arc of how Jimmy McGill changes throughout time into a new persona.

From the first episode, you can see that the beautiful shots and camerawork prevalent in “Breaking Bad” will be found in its descendant.

The main fear about this show is that it will ride on the coattails of its predecessor and just be a money-grab.

However, it seems obvious from the first episode that the only real connection is the main character.

“Better Call Saul” is a show that already knows its identity and is in the hands of more than capable show-runners and superb directors.

AMC has another hit that will replace “Breaking Bad” and the soon-departing “Mad Men.” Greg Gottfried
