Delivery service adds tracking

By Brian Gamache bgamache@indiana.edu | @brgamache

Food delivery service BtownMenus has launched a feature that allows customers to track their orders in real time.

The feature will track the stages of the food delivery process as the driver picks up and delivers the order.

“From start to finish, it lets you see the entire process,” BtownMenus cofounder Corey Arenson said.

Users can choose to receive text alerts about their driver’s progress and can also check the location of their driver on the service’s website, which displays a map.

“This is big tech, but we’re local in all of our markets,” Arenson said.

Christine White ate packaged crackers and drank fruit juice from a plastic cup for dinner Monday night.

One table over, Solina Beringer sat at a table set with flowers. She was eating pasta and salad catered from FARM Bloomington and drank sparkling juice out of a glass cup.

White said she couldn’t help but compare the two meals.

“I know I’m not going to physically feel as good later from eating that processed food,” she said.

For the next hour, though, White couldn’t do anything to change her dinner options.

White and Beringer were eating dinner at Oxfam Club’s Hunger Banquet, designed to serve as a metaphor for the American food system. The event was co-sponsored by the Bee Keeping Club at IU and Sprouts, the campus gardening club.

As guests entered the event, they selected at random a card that assigned them to lower-class, middle-class or upper-class tables.

Oxfam member Wasay Rasool, responsible for much of the event’s organization, said the random assignment is meant to demonstrate how place in the class system is largely the result of circumstance, as opposed to the question of work ethic.

“As each of us walked into the room tonight, we were assigned our place in life, at random,” Rasool said to guests at the start of the event.

One of the six tables at the banquet was reserved for high-income guests, who were served a catered meal from FARM Bloomington.

Middle-class guests took up five tables,

Gophers coach praises Hoosiers

By Sam Beishuizen sbeishui@indiana.edu @Sam_Beishuizen

Minnesota Coach Richard Pitino was blunt following his team’s 19-point loss to IU on Sunday.

“They kicked our butts,” he said.

“They flat-out kicked our butts.”

It wasn’t much more complicated than that.

IU’s 90-71 win against Minnesota showed another glimpse of what this Hoosier team is capable of. It’s been the story surrounding this team all year, and it shows no indication of changing any time soon.

There were signs early that smallball wouldn’t work when IU lost to Eastern Washington at home. The struggles of a small team persisted against Michigan State. Then, IU was completely blown out against Purdue.

But shooting continues to serve as a fail-safe for IU. It has essentially made every game winnable, diluting any existing flaws to the point where IU can turn the ball over 18 times against Minnesota but still win by 19.

It’s a dangerous combination, one that opposing coaches covet.

Award-winning video game composer gives lecture

By Lauren Saxe lsaxe@indiana.edu | @SaxeLauren

Behind the guts and glory of every video game, a musical score amplifies the action, and creates an illusion of being inside the game.

With every dynamite score, there’s a mastermind that makes fantasy come to life. Award-winning composer Chance Thomas shared the tricks to writing music for video games.

Thomas’ lecture, “Composing Music for Games: The Art, Tech, and Commerce of Video Game Scoring,” took place 7 p.m. Monday at Sweeney Hall in the Simon Music Library.

It was open to all IU students.

A collaboration between the Jacobs School of Music’s Center for Electric and Computer Music, the Media School and Project Jumpstart, the lecture hit on the key components to successful composing in the gaming industry, a position that both USA Today and Geekwire have declared “one of the top-10 fastest growing jobs in America.”

Before the lecture started,

Thomas jumped from seat to seat in the audience, chatting with students, getting to know them and their interests. His easygoing attitude and excitement set the tone for an inviting, interactive lecture. Video game designers, composers and serious gamers were in attendance.

“Music scoring is a language,” Thomas said.

The music score is the emotional sub-narrative of any visual medium, he said.

Giving students a “pop quiz” before delving into his lecture, Thomas asked students what kinds of instruments they would use to write the music for a video game scene he flashed onto the projector.

Several students raised their hands, calling out names of instruments or the types of sounds they associated with that scene.

“Exotic flute.”

“Big hits on metallic percussion.”

“Djembes and toms.”

After compiling a list of sounds and instruments, he played the actual clip of music he composed.

The result was almost exactly what

Thomas’s most famous credits “Lord of the Rings Online” James Cameron’s “Avatar” “Marvel Ultimate Alliance” “Dungeons and Dragons Online.”

the students had described. Unlike concert music, Thomas said film and game scoring is like creating a universal language.

“Pay attention to what the music does to your emotions when it comes in,” Thomas said, showing a clip and prompting students to describe how it changed their feelings afterward.

No matter what type of music is being written, there are six universal functions vital to music scoring, Thomas said. Setting the mood, SEE THOMAS, PAGE 6

Students celebrate new year

By Alyson Malinger afmaling@indiana.edu | @aly_mali

This Thursday will mark the first day of the Tibetan New Year 2142 in the Tibetan calendar. Called “Losar” in Tibetan, the New Year is celebrated for 15 days, with the main celebrations occuring on the first three days.

On Monday, the Tibetan Studies Student Association under the department of Central Eurasian Studies held a Losar celebration dinner open to all students and faculty within the department.

“If I didn’t come, who will?” said Tenzin Thutod, a School of Public and Environmental Affairs graduate student and one of the only two fully Tibetan students that he knows of at IU. “This is a time for celebration and happiness, a time for family.”

The celebration included a variety of Tibetan food and songs to help add to the cultural aspect of the holiday. The three-day celebration is a mixture of both sacred and secular practices, so this event portrayed both sides of the tradition.

The year 2015 marks the year of the female wood sheep.

It symbolizes the most feminine signs of the zodiac; the more kind and compassionate heart of the sheep offers an opening to recognize how interconnected we really are, and urges humanity to choose peace over separation.

This is in balance with the 2014 horse that tested many levels, centering more on an individual’s soul-searching.

The Tibetan New Year and Chinese New Year always fall around or on the same day because both follow a lunar calendar consisting of 12 or 13 months, depending on leap years.

The event started with a traditional prayer facilitated by a local Bloomington Tibetan monk, Geisha.

The prayer was given in traditional Tibetan tongue and lasted around two minutes with the room in complete silence as a motion of

IU professors conducted a survey to see how public opinion stood on the issue of benefit principle taxes in regards to a mileage tax and found that U.S. public opinion is not in support of benefit principle taxes.

Stacey Giroux, the study director at IU’s Center for Survey Research, and Denvil Duncan, John Graham, Ven- Graham kata Nadella and Ashley Bowers of the School of Public and Environmental Affairs wrote the article Duncan “Demand for Benefit Taxation: Evidence From Public Opinion on Road Financing” based on their research findings, according to an IU press release.

They found that overall the U.S. public does not support benefit principle based taxes, according to the press release. Benefit principle taxes are based on the idea people should pay for goods and services depending on how much they use them.

Currently, the federal government is discussing how to finance roads because fuel tax revenue is falling, according to the release. Since 1993, the federal government has charged 18.4 cents for every gallon of fuel to maintain roads.

respect for the religious aspects of the night.

Following the prayer, a scholarly professor of Tibetan studies, Professor Elliot Sterling, gave a short lesson on the traditions of Losar and the year of the female wood sheep.

“I traveled throughout Asia during my undergrad and fell in love with the culture and traditions,” Sterling said.

Sterling has been a professor at IU for more than 30 years and is very active in the local Bloomington Tibetan community.

The event concluded with a large meal with

traditional Tibetan foods such as dumplings and khapse, a special fried dough biscuit prepared weeks in advance for the holiday.

All food was provided by local Tibetan families that wanted to celebrate their holiday with a community.

They decided to share in the experience by cooking traditional food for the group.

A circle dance with the entire community ended the celebration accompanied by festive music and cheering by all.

“We think about the positive and things in the past year and focus on the

erasing of the negatives for this coming year,” Thupten Anyetsang, local Tibetan dignitary and a close friend of Sterling, said.

The IU Tibetan Studies program is one of just six in the country. Students participate in local weekly language practices at local restaurants and are immersed to an extent into the Tibetan culture found in Bloomington.

“Everyone is so busy in their own lives, so this is a platform for everyone to congregate together,” said Ten Tsepak, president of the Tibetan Studies Student Association.

Six students walked into the small room one by one, the scent of candles around them.

The longer they were in the room, the more at ease they appeared.

“Today we’re going to talk about how we learn,” Muhammad Saahir said.

Saahir, a therapist with IU Counseling and Psychological Services, led the third of four “Monday Motivators” sessions Monday in the Indiana Memorial Union.

“Monday Motivators” are a set of free mental health workshops sponsored by CAPS and the IU Health Center that have taken place from 4 to 5 p.m. every Monday throughout February.

Chris Meno, psychologist and Coordinator of Outreach and Consultation with CAPS, said the workshops are meant to give students tips on making their semesters easier while working in stressful environments.All names of participants in the workshops have remained confidential to ensure total privacy.

“I went to the first two workshops, and they were great,” one participant said.

not changing the fuel tax rate, funding for road maintenance is running out.

The federal government is exploring new revenue options, including using dedicated revenue sources, drawing from the general federal fund — which is financed through broad-based taxes — or using benefit principle systems such as increased fuel taxes, tolls and mileage user fees, according to the release.

“It’s a serious issue — not just at the federal level, but the states are seeing this and trying to do something about it,” Duncan said.

In the survey of 2,087 Americans, only 5 percent supported a strictly defined benefit principle and only 34 percent supported a generously defined benefit principle, according to the release.

Another 49 percent believed everyone should pay equally, according to the release.

Economists think benefit principle taxes are effective because consumers who pay for a service are more likely to monitor their use and cut back if needed, Duncan said in the press release.

He also said one could argue these taxes would distribute the cost of roads in proportion to who benefits from the roads.

This, however, doesn’t account for the benefits acquired via shipping services, postal services and other services that use the roads.

Duncan is currently working on a new survey focused on Indiana residents, according to the release.

be from 6:15 to 9:15 p.m. Feb. 28 in the Faculty Club of the Indiana Memorial Union’s University Club, according to the alumni association’s website.

“The Distinguished Alumni Award is one of the highest honors the College bestows on its graduates,” said Larry Singell, executive dean of the College of Arts and Sciences, in an IU press release. “The paths these men and women have trod since graduation have covered a lot of territory,

from oilfields to battlefields, from Hollywood production sets to once-forgotten national landmarks. Every year, when our most illustrious alumni return to accept their awards, their words and stories inspire us all — faculty, students and alumni alike.

They truly exemplify the value of a liberal arts education.”

The four recipients this year are Gayle Cook, an esteemed leader in historic preservation and the co-founder of Cook Inc.; Jim Farnsworth,

executive vice president and chief exploration officer for Houston-based Cobalt International Energy; Lt. Gen. Thomas Montgomery, a highly decorated military leader who served in command, staff and management positions around the world; and Sue Naegle, the president of her own television and film production company, Naegle Ink, according to the press release.

“They’ve helped me think in a more positive way. Even though they each have specific themes, what you learn in them is useful in everyday life.”

Monday’s workshop was themed “Academic Success.”

Students observed the different types of learning and how to balance their stress with school.

The main types of learning on which the workshop focused were visual, kinesthetic and auditory.

Saahir said some examples of “learning about our own learning styles” are memorizing things by seeing them, whispering to oneself while reading and solving problems by physically working through them.

Participants were then given a “Learning Styles Assessment,” in which they read a number of statements that corresponded with each type of learning and placed a number three, two or one next to each one, with three being “often”, two being “sometimes” and one being “seldom/never.”

Once this was done, each participant shared which type of learning they best SEE CAPS, PAGE 3

Career panel teaches job skills

By Brett Dworski bdworski@indiana.edu | @BrettD93

The seventh annual SustainIU week began with a sustainability career panel Monday at the Kelley Living Learning Center.

In addition to the IU Student Sustainability Council, the career panel was sponsored by Net Impact, an organization with Kelley School of Business aimed at using business skills to support social and environmental causes.

University Director of Sustainability Bill Brown said the career panel is meant to encourage students with an interest in environmental issues to take a step outside the classroom and pursue a career in the world of sustainability.

Brown was the director of sustainability on the Bloomington campus for many years and, as of January, is now the university director for all IU campuses.

“Working in sustainability is an interesting challenge,” he said. “It’s important for us as a human race to learn to thrive and keep ourselves alive. The sooner we figure this out, the less consequences we have to deal with as a civilization.”

Emily Hughes, a volunteer for the IU Student Sustainability Council during SustainIU week, is currently an intern for the Office of Sustainability. She said the career panel is a great opportunity because people who,

like herself, are interested in a career in sustainability are sometimes not fully aware of the employment opportunities available.

“Climate change has serious implications,” she said.

“Adopting practices to reduce energy and conserve resources is vital, and hearing about the job opportunities that come with this is definitely motivating.”

IU sophomore and environmental management student Marie Becker said the career panel was the first sustainability event she had attended on campus and she didn’t know what to expect prior to coming.

“I thought I might as well come and observe what was going on since it is involved with my major,” she said. “My focus of study is water conservation, and since the theme of SustainIU week is water scarcity, hopefully this panel carries through and gives me some information.”

Becker left the career panel with positive reviews, saying it was interesting hearing why the members of the panel chose their line of work.

“It’s easy to not care about sustainability,” she said.

“There are very little immediate repercussions you can see with it, because even though you do lose money as the environment worsens, you don’t initially know it. Working with sustainability makes sure it’s not forgotten about.”

ABC and CBS. She also became the president of HBO in 2008.

Harf is the deputy spokeswoman for the U.S. Department of State and received a Bachelor of Arts degree in 2003 in political science.

Mackie is a professor in the Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences.

He has authored about 250 scientific book chapters, reviews and papers, and his research has been funded by the National Institutes of Health, according to the press release.

The award ceremony and dinner is open to the public.

The dinner costs $50. Reservations are required and can be made on the IU alumni website, according to the press release.

they are, she said, only so much can be done with such a small amount of people.

“They really are helpful for students and should be given a chance,” she said.

“Hopefully more will come to the next one. The more, the better.”

The final “Monday Motivators” mental health workshop will be Feb. 23 in room M005 of the IMU. Its theme will be “Self-Compassion and Resilience.”

Danni McPherron, Program and Events Coordinator of the Indiana Recycling Coalition, speaks at McNutt Residence Center about her education background and how she started in the field of sustainability. She also answered questions from the event attendees about what she does at work.

IU senior Magnai Davaadagva said the event inspired students, especially younger ones, to get involved.

“A lot of the freshman here aren’t sure where they want to go with their careers, and this panel seemed inspirational in giving their own experiences,” he said. “It gave the younger people an idea of what sustainability is about.”

Brown emphasized in his speech on the panel that no matter the line of work, the most important thing is that you “follow your bliss.”

“Even if you don’t want to work in sustainability, if you don’t follow what’s in you heart, you won’t find what’s right for you,” he said. “Follow your calling and you’ll be happy.”

Local man arrested for College Mall battery From IDS reports

Brandon M. Thompson, 34, was arrested on preliminary charges of battery Saturday night, according to a Bloomington Police Department arrest report.

An assault was reported around 9 p.m.

Saturday at College Mall, Capt. Joe Qualters said. A female and her boyfriend were inside the mall when Thompson, the woman’s ex-boyfriend who she dated two years ago, entered the mall and saw her with her current boyfriend.

He reportedly became upset that she was dating someone else and became argumentative. Thompson reportedly grabbed her in a forceful manner inside the mall.

When the couple and a female friend were leaving the mall, he allegedly attacked them in the parking lot closest to Sears.

Thompson reportedly struck the woman’s new boyfriend in the face with a closed fist, then hit his ex-girlfriend in the mouth with his fist, causing complaints of pain for both individuals, Capt. Qualters said. The second female then pepper sprayed him and he fled on foot.

Night officers located Thompson at his apartment on South Village Court and took him into custody without incident. He told officers he recently bought a diamond engagement ring and thought he was in a committed relationship with the woman, Capt.

Qualters said.

Biologist explains failed deer cull

By Neal Earley njearley@indiana.edu

For months, the issue polarized Bloomington.

People picketed, protested and dressed up to fight the city, but tempers were cool Monday night as deer biologist Tim Carter stood in front of a mostly packed council chamber at Bloomington City Hall.

Carter, a biology professor at Ball State University, came to Bloomington to present data on his study of fawns along with his plan to study adult deer in Bloomington/Monroe County to city residents who are passionate about deer.

“It’s polarizing here, there’s no doubt about it,” Carter said. “In most other areas the passion, the extremes, are not there. Everywhere you go people have opinions about deer, but in most places the deer are not causing as much controversy as they are here.”

In November, protesters gathered at City Hall to voice their objection to the City’s plan to cull the deer population around Griffy Lake with sharp shooters.

Their anger was mostly directed at Councilmen Dave Rollo and Andy Ruff, both of whom largely supported the Deer Task Force conclusion.

Carter said he and his team of graduate students came to Bloomington after seeing news stories featuring the deer cull and the protest surrounding it.

Rollo, who has received much ire over his stance on the deer issue, introduced Carter on Monday night.

Now, the sharp shooters have been pulled away after White Buffalo, the company hired to shoot the deer, recommended suspending the operation after the deer did not go for the bait.

Carter said he has no opinion on the Deer Task

Force Report, which recommended sharp shooting the deer around Griffy Lake, but said his experience studying deer in Bloomington is unique.

As he stood at the lectern, many in the crowd came with pen and paper, taking notes as if they were students in one of Carter’s classes during his hour-long presentation.

Carter’s presentation was followed by a 30-minute question and answer session in which residents raised questions concerning Carter’s new plan to catch adult deer and track them with special collars.

After his presentation, people came to the podium to ask Carter questions about his proposed study.

The questions concerned Carter’s research methodology, funding and the safety of the animals. Carter seemed to ease the concern of some, despite previously difficulty in doing just that.

After years of controversy surrounding the Deer Task Force Report, the crowd at Carter’s presentation was quiet, eager to listen to Carter’s findings and proposed study.

Carter reassured those in attendance he is taking every measure to make sure studies are done in a safe way with no deaths.

Carter said his teams plans on capturing deer with nets, traps and dart guns and plans to sedate the deer in order apply a GPS or VHF radio collar, which they will use to track the deer.

Lastly, Carter asked the residents of Bloomington for their help in his study.

During the presentation, Carter asked people to call the deer hotline and email his team if they spot deer on their property.

But if past experience is any indicator, Carter’s work won’t be easy.

“I have had people that

up to me and given me a pat on the back ... I have had literally every extreme kind of contact with the City of Bloomington.”

Carter’s new study, titled Deer 2.0, will research

adult deer in and around Bloomington.

His team plans to trap and track deer in urban and rural areas over a two to three-year period, similar to his study on fawn.

Woman assaults another woman at Western Skateland roller skate rink From IDS reports

Bloomington Police Department officers responded to a report of an assault in progress around 8:15 p.m.

Saturday at Western Skateland on 930 W. 17th St. A woman reportedly had items stolen, including a Sony PSP, and she had attempted to contact her

children’s father about the items, Capt. Joe Qualters said.

The man reportedly wouldn’t answer his phone.

When the woman saw the man and another female at a table at Western Skateland, she confronted them.

She reportedly picked up two cups belonging to kids, threw them at the other

female and struck her in the face with the cups, Capt.

Qualters said. The woman then left the building with her children and when officers arrived, she denied ever throwing the cups.

BPD is in the process of filing a warrant for the woman, Capt. Qualters said.

Banners bring awareness to teenage dating violence

Awareness of teenage dating violence will be promoted across downtown this month.

Banners created by teenage volunteers at Middle Way House have been hung up on light posts to raise awareness for National Teen Dating Violence Awareness and Prevention Month.

Middle Way House recruited more than 40 teen volunteers to create the banners as part of its day of service on Martin Luther King Jr. Day last month.

The banners went up the first week of February.

The 12 banners were designed by Merridee LaMantia, a local artist, and put together by teens recruited

by Middle Way House’s prevention team, who came up with the messages that are displayed on the banners.

Rhino’s Youth Center, an after school organization that provides programs for teen-

agers, donated space in its building for the high school students to make the banners.

The banners are displayed on poles owned by the Bloomington Entertainment and Arts District that are reserved to advertise for events throughout the year.

“We put in an application and they let us have the pole usage for the month of February,” Middle Way House representative Rene Llewellyn said.

This is the first year for the project. Llewellyn said she hopes there can be more banners hung up next February.

“Next year, we hope to make another 12 so each pole can double-up,” she said.

The Middle Way House primarily serves women who are victims of violence by providing housing and education.

Each year, an estimated one-in-10 American teenagers is physically harmed by a boyfriend or girlfriend,

according to a release from Middle Way House.

Young people who experience dating violence are at increased risk of substance abuse, depression, poor academic performance and future victimization, according to the release.

The Center for Disease Control and Prevention defines dating violence as physical, sexual, psychological or emotional violence within a relationship, including stalking.

In a 2013 survey by the federal government, 10 percent of teenagers said they had been physically abused by their partner, and 10 percent said they were sexually abused.

Dating violence occurs in relationships in which teens believe violence is acceptable.

These teens often come from a line of abuse, use illegal substances or have depression, anxiety or other trauma, according to the CDC.

NC shooting alludes to hate WE SAY: Analysis of hate crimes is needed This past Tuesday a shooting took place in Chapel Hill, N.C., that sparked not only sorrow, but anger and controversy. The alleged gunman, Craig Stephen Hicks, 46, has been charged with first-degree murder in the deaths of three young adults: Deah Shaddy Barakat, 23; Yusor Mohammad, 21; and Razan Mohammad Abu-Salha, 19.

The shootings took place in the parking lot of the condominium complex where all four involved individuals resided. Hicks allegedly shot each victim in the head, calling to mind an execution.

Each of the three victims was a practicing Muslim, while Hicks is a selfproclaimed atheist. The heinous nature of these murders has caused an outcry from members and allies of the Islamic community for investigation into potential hate motivation.

A prominent example of said groups, the Council on AmericanIslamic Relations, has raised its voice to request a comprehensive look into Hicks’ motives.

Some might argue the motive for

this crime is irrelevant. If Hicks did indeed pull the trigger in these murders and is found guilty, he will likely serve a maximum sentence however he is charged. But then these individuals would be overlooking a crucial element of our contemporary culture: the importance of the language and politics surrounding our every move.

If these three young people were indeed murdered because of their religious beliefs and affiliations, we as a society cannot ethically remain neutral or silent. By default, this silence would be an acceptance of the highly suspicious intent behind these murders.

Examples of such atrocious religious, cultural and ethnic hatred has haunted America from its founding, and tolerance of such a potential hatred must not be promoted.

Another concern dissenters have voiced is the concept of the justice system’s involvement in penalizing hate crimes. Hateful thoughts are still thoughts. Therefore, one could possibly argue they are protected under the First Amendment.

Once again, the Editorial Board

believes this is a misguided support for freedom. Identifying and penalizing destructive or slanderous actions, speech and print that target a specific group might be a form of censorship; but the benefits to the safety and wellbeing of our society greatly outweigh any potential loss of individual rights.

Let’s take a moment to place ourselves in the reality of those involved in these killings. The victims were likely made to wait and watch in horror as their loved ones were executed by the shooter.

This gruesome process appears designed to make death as unpleasant as possible for the victims and grants a strong insinuation of hate to the killings.

This is a chance for us to stand for a critical analysis of an alleged perpetrator’s motive, so as to both open a dialogue about hate crimes and to raise awareness for their insidious nature.

Let us not allow these three young people to die completely in vain. Let us speak out for a safer and more understanding tomorrow.

NATALIE KNOWS

Angels in hardhats are saving Syrian lives Anytime I hear news relating to Syria, I brace myself and attempt not to cringe. They are always reports of devastation, violence, displaced refugees and a failed foreign policy. Almost 200,000 Syrian people have been killed since conflict erupted in 2011, and more than 9 million people have been forced from their homes.

Recently, Syrian armed forces have been dropping barrel bombs on rebel-held areas that are also occupied by civilians.

Syrian President Bahar Assad, however, claims it is “childish” to suggest the Syrian government has been dropping bombs where it knows civilians are located.

But let us not forget the alleged chemical attacks carried out by the Syrian government in 2013, resulting in the death of hundreds of innocent lives. President Assad simply blamed the rebels. And rising powers of jihadist groups such as the Islamic State are only causing further turmoil.

But among the rubble of destruction and hopelessness, there are people on the ground taking action.

They are called the White Helmets.

Unpaid and unarmed, this Syrian Civil Defense group rushes in to aid civilian areas that have been hit by barrel bombs. Scores of these bombs packed with nails, shrapnel and explosives are dropped on Syrian neighborhoods each day.

Wearing simple white construction helmets, these men and women are volunteers risking their lives to save others.

It seems as though their efforts have been successful. Since they began in 2013, these humanitarians have saved more than 12,500 lives. This number is steadily growing.

I cannot begin to fathom the courage and selfsacrifice that it must take for these once-normal Syrian people to rise up and put themselves in danger against attacks.

The White Helmets serve as a reminder not everyone in the Middle East has the intent of destruction. Even in the most dangerous places in the world, there is still hope. They value and save every life they can, no matter which side that person is fighting on.

“When I want to save someone’s life I don’t care if he’s an enemy or a friend.

What concerns me is the soul that might die,” a White Helmets rescuer said.

Female rescuers are more important than ever.

Sometimes people refuse to allow male volunteers to rescue women and girls in the more conservative parts of Syria. These women volunteers are their only hope for survival.

Despite their efforts, our foreign policy has failed. I doubt that arming rebels is the answer to solving this horrifically complex and enduring issue.

“We can only ease the suffering of our people,” White Helmets Chief

Raed Saleh said.

But now, he says it’s up to the international community to end it. And I couldn’t agree more.

President Obama and other world leaders need to focus their efforts toward providing relief for Syrian refugees. So many of the displaced youths are living without any schooling. They will grow up to be uneducated and unable to carry out the lives they truly deserve.

Let us cease to look at Syria as a lost cause or an “over there” problem. I believe we should build schools for the displaced and aid the White Helmets in their efforts to save those who cannot help themselves.

These people have sacrificed so much already. nrowthor@indiana.edu

Few would dare to contest the beauty surrounding pregnancy and birth.

The ability for a woman’s body to carry and nurture the development of a new child is absolutely extraordinary.

Unfortunately, much of this fascination can become lost in the critiquing and shaming of how some women deliver their newborns: Cesarean section.

Cesarean section, or Csection, is a major surgery that involves the delivery of an expectant mother’s baby or babies.

The surgeon passes through the abdomen to access the uterus, allowing delivery via as little as one incision per location.

While it has existed for centuries, relatively recent advances have greatly increased the safety and predictability of C-section deliveries.

In the United States, about one in four births occur via C-Section. Most arise from an emergency situation during delivery, though others are planned in advance due to existing or predicted complications.

Various health issues on behalf of either the infant or mother can necessitate a Csection to help ensure a safe delivery for all involved.

Recently, strong pushes in our culture for women to embrace a more “natural” gestation and delivery process has placed an increasing amount of stigma upon C-section deliveries.

Women are made to feel ashamed for not being able to deliver their child or children vaginally and are quickly bombarded with endless statistics regarding all of the benefits they have “failed” to provide for their children.

This pressure is not only ridiculous, but it also may

contribute to postpartum issues.

A new mother has supported her infant and allowed it to grow in the intimate safety of her womb for as long as possible.

Because of her sacrifice and that of those who support her, she has literally brought new life into the world.

This should be the last moment in a woman’s life that she be tainted by shame.

Unfortunately, our culture cannot seem to allow even one moment of beauty be realized in a woman’s life without contest.

On paper, C-section deliveries are not preferable to a standard vaginal birth.

There are certain risks that are elevated by this form of delivery, such as the formation of a weak spot on the uterus or an increased amount of recovery.

But the simple fact that mothers with unique pregnancy situations can still deliver their children in safety is truly phenomenal and should not be overshadowed by regret surrounding the method of delivery.

The next time you discuss C-section deliveries with someone, remember that C-sections are not negative situations.

They are simply another method to reach the same beautiful end.

Do not express disappointment or shock. Instead, offer the mother the support and celebration she truly deserves. sjdickma@indiana.edu

GUENTHER WITH AN “E”

Get engaged to Bloomington I love Bloomington. It is my home, my place of work, where I am getting my education and where I have grown as a person and as a citizen.

Don’t get me wrong, there are things about Bloomington I would change.

I would implement, ideally, a policy that provides more shelters for our growing homeless population in order to keep them safe and healthy.

It costs more to care for the sick than to house the homeless.

I would like to see a series of aggressive tax abatements to businesses coming into Bloomington, to spark economic booms in areas of Bloomington that are falling behind other sectors.

These abatements would preferably go to sustainable businesses, locally-owned shops and businesses with a history of charitable civic engagement in the area.

I would like to see a budget that exemplifies Bloomington’s commitment to being a city that proudly stands by its promise to have safe streets for every child.

I would like to see our police forces trained extensively in race relations so we can continue to enforce justice in an equitable, safe fashion.

My love for this city runs deep enough for me to stand by it when it needs me and to speak up on how to improve our city.

I truly believe the strongest patriots and the most engaged, proud citizens are those who stand up and offer to try and improve their communities.

Though I trust Bloomington is working toward all of the goals I listed above, we can always do more.

Collectively, the people of Bloomington can have an enormous impact on

the direction our city takes, and they can do so primarily through municipal elections.

This year, the City Council and mayor are up for election, and we need to get involved in order to make sure the best candidates are chosen for their respective offices.

In the last City Council election, one candidate won his primary with around 150 votes.

And in a city of more than 80,000 people, that, to me, is simply unacceptable.

And at a University with more than 42,000 students, I’m surprised that we do not do a better job of getting out the vote.

We can do better than 150 votes.

And we as students can do a better job of getting civically engaged in our city.

Bloomington is our home, and we ought to try and better it however we can.

We can have a city where students and permanent residents can work together to forge a new path of prosperity, of progressive policies and of a proliferation of new, exciting ideas.

We can make Bloomington a shining beacon to the rest of Indiana, a city where the many help the few, where the healthy help the sick, where the rich and the poor can join together to fight for a brighter tomorrow.

The next round of City Council elections is in 2019.

I hope to see students at the polls this time around, and again in 2019. ajguenth@umail.iu.edu

“I’m a foodie,” Bostick said. “I ran out of meal points last year, so I used their service all the time.”

Bostick described a situation this year in which he received his food cold and had trouble dealing with BtownMenus’ management and customer service.

“I’m canceling my account with them, and I’ll just use Mr. Delivery instead,” he said.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 “I love their team,” Pitino said. “They’re so tough to guard, and they put you in so many binds with the way they play.”

Pitino pointed out IU’s depth at guard as being the key matchup problem for his team. It’s an advantage overlooked because IU has little depth in the post.

“Nothing we were doing was working,” he said. “Man, zone, nothing was working.”

When Pitino was asked more about his own team’s struggles, he repeatedly brought up that IU was one of the best offenses in the country. When an opposing team is making that many shots, they’re hard to beat, he said.

The Bloomington food delivery market is a crowded one. Mr. Delivery and Grubhub are both national chains that offer services similar to BtownMenus.

Food delivery services make money by charging processing fees to pick up and deliver food.

BtownMenus was started in 2005 by Arenson and Mike Rolland, both IU students at the time.

Originally the first franchise of LionMenus.com, a food delivery service at Penn State University, the pair now runs franchises in Denver and Boulder, Colo., as

well as Bloomington, Arenson said.

LionMenus.com, now OrderUp.com, runs franchises in 37 markets and hired the man behind the Domino’s real-time tracking app to create its technology, Arenson said.

Arenson and Rolland now live in Colorado, and their Bloomington service is locally run out of premises at Sixth Street and College Avenue, Arenson said.

“We have hundreds of orders a day and have had over 40,000 users total,” Arenson said. “We hope this gives them a better experience.”

That’s the caveat with this team, and it likely won’t change any time soon. It can be intimidating and backbreaking to an opponent.

“I think we got freaked out a little bit by some of the bombs they were hitting,” Pitino said. “Then we were overcommitting to the ball, and they were driving it by us. They’re a tough team to guard.”

By definition, the offense is meant to attack. The Hoosiers want defenders on their heels.

Minnesota’s press defense is designed to dictate the tempo. IU knew that. Sunday, it was able to play at its preferred pace.

“That’s something we like to do,” IU freshman guard Robert Johnson said. “That’s

something we talked about with Coach a lot. When they bring the pressure up like that, the biggest way to attack it is to reciprocate the same pressure and put the pressure on the defense.”

It’s no longer a scouting report secret. That secret was let out of the bag a long time ago.

But even when opponents know it’s coming, IU continues to take advantage of its outside shooting.

As IU Coach Tom Crean has said, there will be off nights — games where shots just won’t fall. That’s part of basketball.

But when the Hoosiers are as hot as they were Sunday, there’s really not much another team can do.

“I just think it’s a lot of fun,” Johnson said.

heightening emotion, propelling the action, providing contextual clues, enhancing the aesthetic and contributing to structural unity — the key formula for any student sharpening their composing chops.

“If someone turns off the music in the game you have lost the battle,” Thomas said.

“That’s a huge challenge for us.”

The unpredictable nature of video games is what differentiates them between that of film and television scores, he said.

“We don’t know how the drama is going to unfold at any particular moment in time,” Thomas said, comparing the scoring and plot lines of video games to the predictable story arcs in film and

The final table was reserved for low-income guests, who received an apple each and picked from a box of packaged snacks like crackers and potato chips.

Rasool said the low-income table was meant to represent Americans living around or below the poverty line.

“Fifteen percent of American residents — more than 46 million people — live below the poverty line, and 14.7 percent of American households are food insecure,” he said. “In Monroe County, Indiana, that figure is even higher: 17.5 percent of households don’t have consistent access to the amount of food that keeps us healthy.”

Aside from composers in general, Thomas said video game composers face three specific obstacles: scale, function and flexibility.

“The music has not just a dramatic role, but a functional role,” he said.

This functional role indicates what the player needs and helps them to navigate through their mission.

Thomas displayed functionality through the video game version of the classic board game Monopoly.

Each of the special spaces or opportunities a player encounters — rolling doubles, collecting a chance card, passing go and drawing the community chest — come with a short clip of music or sound effect, serving functional purposes.

“I want you to think of music scores as tinker toys,”

Thomas said.

He explained that, like tinker toys, a score has several various connectable components, each with its own role, and connects one to the next in order to create a score.

Thomas also stressed the importance of the relationship between programmer and composer.

He said his main goal in reaching out to students and giving these lectures is that they will pave the way for the future.

Paul Mortilla, a freshman music composition major in the music school, said Thomas’ “knowledge and handle of what is needed to have a successful film score” was what stuck with him most from the lecture.

“It’s impressive that he has such a definite method,” Mortilla said.

“Currently, honeybees are responsible for pollinating $15 billion of crops each year and are seen as the building blocks of the environment,” Symes said. “However, for the past 10 years, beekeepers have lost about 30 percent of their hives each year, which is above the 19 percent loss rate that is sustainable.”

Sympes explained that farmers rent bees from beekeepers to pollinate their crops, so a rise in honeybee rental fees leads to higher food prices.

“When bee populations die, the lower-income people are the ones who suffer the most,” she said.

The dinner was followed by a room-wide discussion where guests shared how they felt during the meal and their thoughts on why hunger exists even in a nation like America.

Beringer, a high-income guest, said she felt especially bad when the low-income table had their apples taken away.

“Food has such a big impact on your health, and that trickles down into higher medical bills and so many other problems,” she said.

Middle-income guest Stone Irr shared that his

group briefly discussed giving up some of their food to the low-income table, but ended up not doing so.

“You get entrapped in your personal setting,” he said. “I wanted my food.”

Oxfam board member Aamina Khan said she was pleased by the wide range of issues brought up during the discussion.

The event was meant to address how various factors like poverty traps, policy and a culture of inequality causes hunger in America.

Khan said Oxfam had a similar event last semester to simulate the injustices and poor distribution in the global food system, but wanted an event that would be more relatable for students.

This semester’s event also provided students with information on how they can feel like they’re making an impact on the food system, a component Lauren Martin felt was lacking from last semester’s event.

Martin, the vice president of Sprouts, spoke to the group about community gardening as an alternate to the food production system.

“We’re a solution,” she said. “It’s something that all of us can do now.”

Jacobs alumnus promotes music education in Brazilian slum m

MARY KATHERINE WILDEMAN | IDS

André Micheletti, a Jacobs School of Music alumnus, instructs Luiz Fernando during a private lesson on Nov. 10, 2014. At age 14, Fernando was the youngest Brazilian to perform at Carnegie Hall.

By Mary Katherine Wildeman marwilde@indiana.edu | @mkwildeman

SAO PAULO, Brazil — When the student sets his bow to the strings, his cello fills the room with the sound of years of hard work.

Classes are on hold for the moment so the school’s professors can evaluate Wellington Ramos’ performance. The school’s teachers sit in the audience, each with a clipboard in hand. Ramos’ personal instructor, André Micheletti, is among them.

Before the evaluation, Ramos went to see Micheletti — who has two doctorates from Jacobs School of Music —in one of the school’s practice rooms. There was a broad but nervous smile on his face. The pair laughed when Ramos showed Micheletti his shaking hands.

It wasn’t hard to see why. The Baccarelli Institute is a private school and one of the top music programs in all of Brazil. It is the sort of place that people move close to so they may attend, which is exactly what Ramos did.

There are hoots and whistles from the audience when Ramos finishes. He takes a bow with a grin on his face.

Later, Ramos and Micheletti go back in the practice room and discuss the things he could have done better. Ramos nods as Micheletti talks.

Neither pay mind to the view out the window. Surrounding

the school is a sea of shoddily constructed roofs packed close together.

Ramos relocated from a comfortable middle-income life outside of São Paulo to live in Heliópolis, one of the city’s densest slums.

For Brazil, the Baccarelli Institute is unusual, and not only because of its unconventional location. The school keeps standards that remind Micheletti of the quality of music education he found in the United States. He doesn’t think it can be found anywhere else in Brazil.

“Even though it’s in the middle of the slum, kids are coming from universities to have a better education,” Micheletti said.

This is frustrating for the São Paulo state government, Micheletti said, whose publicly funded music schools can’t seem to touch Baccarelli’s quality, in spite of the millions spent on music programming.

The state and federal administrations like to see numbers that reflect success, Micheletti said. They want to be reassured the money they have invested is producing top-notch results, and Baccarelli is undermining that. * * * It’s still hard for Micheletti to believe how much even one child’s education in music can change a

neighborhood. He has watched the Institute transform the entire panorama of its community.

Heliópolis and its prevalent drug-trafficking ring used to litter the crime pages of the newspaper before the Baccarelli Institute arrived. Since then, there have been noticeable changes. Nowadays, if Heliópolis makes headlines, it is usually concerning the Institute.

The Institute has benefited the community by enriching the area with much-needed culture, said Edmilson Venturelli, the Institute’s director of relations.

The World Bank reports a 7-percent decrease in the population of impoverished since 2007, a number the government is proud of.

But income inequality is still extreme.

The top 10 percent are still making 50 percent of the country’s total earnings, according to the Getúlio Vargas Foundation, a private university in Brazil.

Naturally, this translates to limited social mobility. When Baccarelli first opened its doors, many families took their kids out of the music school after one or two years so they could help support the family. Most people simply didn’t see music as a viable career path for poor kids.

Today, things are different.

“They thought that it was only a joke for a child to pass one or two years at the school,” Venturelli said. “Today, they realize that it’s possible to win and have a profes-

sion through music.”

The Baccarelli Institute is funded in part through a program called Lei Rouanet, which allows tax deductions for cultural investments.

The programs Lei Rouanet supports must have some sort of a social impact, which is why the school is eligible to receive the money.

The Baccarelli Institute is free and open to everyone. Its 1,400 students are a mix of people from all social classes. The school’s model of teaching is based on social inclusion, Venturelli said, which is uncommon in the Brazilian schools.

“The conditions that we have today in the music classroom cannot be found anywhere else in Brazil, and we are inside a slum,” Venturelli said.

By all appearances, the São Paulo government is not overly pleased with what Baccarelli has set out to do. The Institute consistently produces better results, Micheletti said, and that frustrates the administration.

The São Paulo government spends $120 million annually on music programs, according to Venturelli. And yet, they cannot get the same results as Baccarelli, a school run on social programming in the middle of a slum.

The governmental solution to the Baccarelli problem was to attempt to lure the school’s professionals away with higher salaries.

This was eight years ago, Venturelli said. No one took a gov-

ernment deal.

Folklorist coming to Mathers

By Sanya Ali siali@indiana.edu | @siali13

Leonard Primiano is known across the nation as an expert in religious art.

Chair of the Department of Religious Studies at Cabrini College, Primiano penned the book “Graces Received: Painted and Metal Ex-Votos from Italy.”

Primiano will speak about his personal collection at 4:30 p.m. Tuesday at the Mathers Museum of World Cultures.

This lecture will kick off the museum’s exhibit of Primiano’s personal collection, “Graces Received,” which will be in Bloomington until May 22.

Judith Kirk, assistant director of Mathers, said Primiano’s prominence in this arena of art is what drew the museum to invite him to show his collection.

“We were familiar with his collection, familiar with the research that he had done and, of course, the publication,” Kirk said. “We had a connection via our

director, who is a colleague of Dr. Primiano’s, so we were able to arrange for the loaning of these pieces.”

The purpose of the talk, Kirk said, is to enlighten patrons of Primiano’s collection about the proper way to evaluate the pieces.

“He’s coming to speak about how to read Catholic art, what really is religious art and its place within the culture of the Roman Catholic Church and sort of the meaning of the objects in contemporary society,” Kirk said.

Kirk said she is looking forward to hearing both Primiano’s advice and being able to see works across their different mediums.

“I’m interested in hearing about the meaning of the objects themselves,” Kirk said. “There are a wide range of materials. The objects that are sort of metallic pieces, then there are paintings.”

The paintings, Kirk said, portray certain instances in people’s lives that are sometimes challenging to grasp without the proper context.

“The paintings depict incidents in people’s lives and either describe accident, illness or seeking blessing,” Kirk said. “Understanding the iconography of the works will be very interesting to hear from someone who has collected and studied these works themselves.”

Kirk said this exhibit of pieces from Italy coincides with a smaller sub-exhibit of ex-voto pieces, which are defined in the press release as paintings or objects created as offerings in traditional Roman Catholicism.

The companion installation is part of a collection of pieces from Egypt but deals with similar religious roots.

“While we have up the exhibit of his collection we also have a very small exhibit up of some ex-votos from our collection,” Kirk said.

Kirk said she hopes patrons take away a better understanding of ex-voto art as well as an appreciation for the pieces themselves.

“I hope that they’ll learn more about the topic but also become familiar with

the range of objects held in the collection, as well as the kind of materials at the museum,” Kirk said. “While they’re here, they’ll have a chance to visit our other exhibits as well.”

Kirk said she encourages people to attend Primiano’s lecture, widen the scope of their religious knowledge and encounter diverse works of art.

“There are a lot of different interests that these pieces represent,” Kirk said.

“First of all, they’re beautiful in and of themselves.

They’re material that depict religious devotion and adoration, and they are sort of intriguing representations of spirituality.”

Above all, Kirk said knowing how to read and examine these objects can have a profound effect on anyone’s faith base.

“Objects tell us so much about ourselves and the world that we live in,” Kirk said. “It’s interesting to see something as abstract as spirituality embodied in the objects.”

How to use extra Valentine chocolate

By Audrey Perkins audperki@indiana.edu | @AudreyNLP

Based off of a post from the Pioneer Woman, this recipe is ideal for those who don’t want to cook or do not want to put a lot of

effort into a decadent dessert.

This recipe is named “blender pudding” because that is exactly what it is.

Everything is made entirely in a blender and only requires two steps. Simply

pour and blend.

This pudding is almost like a mousse: It involves whipping eggs into foam alongside a good amount of chocolate.

The flavor of this is not diluted by cream or milk

Directions 1 Add all the ingredients except for the coffee into the blender. Blend until the chocolate is mostly mixed into the eggs and the mixture has become foamy and light yellow.

This step helps create the “mousse,” as the egg whites stabilize the mix.

2 Pour the coffee into the mix. It must be hot or the chocolate will not melt evenly. Blend until well combined and the liquid is evenly brown. Pour into cups — I served about ¼ a cup for each serving.

For those who want the candy rim featured in the image, melt a tablespoon

Ingredients 1 pound fresh asparagus 1 cup flour ½ cup fresh shredded or grated Parmesan cheese 1 teaspoon of seasoned salt (can substitute for regular salt) 1 ½ cup buttermilk vegetable oil for frying extra Parmesan cheese for topping ranch for dipping Directions 1 Cut the bottoms off the asparagus. Cutting about 1 inch off the asparagus is standard.

2 In a shallow bowl, combine the flour, seasoned salt, and ½ cup Parmesan cheese. Mix thoroughly.

For a day or two after having vaginal intercourse, it burns when I pee. The first time it happened I went to the doctor thinking it was a UTI, but my urine tested negative. The doctor said it was probably just trauma caused by rough sex. It healed quickly. But now it is happening more and more frequently ... sometimes twice a month.

It’s very uncomfortable, and I don’t know what to do. Could this be more than just trauma? How can I prevent it? We always use a water-based lubricant.

I’m glad you felt comfortable enough to go to your doctor the first time you had a burning sensation after having sex. Your doctor is right — it’s not uncommon for women to experience trauma to their genital skin or vaginal tissue when they have sex. Peeing afterward can cause a burning sensation as urine runs along the open tissue.

The question is, why is it happening to you so often?

Does your partner seem to be particularly large in size?

And regardless of his penis size, do you tend to have sex that’s kind of rough? If so, try seeing if more gentle intercourse helps at all.

Often times, people replicate the kind of sex they see in porn — which is really not much like sex in real life — and so they do all kinds of banging around and heavyduty thrusting that can lead to tiny tears in the genitals and to some discomfort or pain.

4 Dip the trimmed asparagus in the flour mixture, then dip in the buttermilk. Transfer the asparagus back to the flour mixture and dip. Allow the battered asparagus to rest on a plate.

5 Heat a frying pan filled with vegetable oil. There should be enough oil in the pan to cover the asparagus.

6 Prepare a plate lined with paper towel.

The key to making this recipe perfect is using fresh vegetables. Fresh vegetables offer much more nutrition — even though that is not the point of this recipe — and just taste better. They contain a fuller flavor.

The light, flaky batter combined with the tender, soft-yet-crisp bite of the asparagus makes this a great appetizer to pair with a rich meal or a simple one.

Some people like rough sex, but since you’re writing about micro-tears or genital traumas, I’m just trying to help you brainstorm here.

You mentioned that you use lubricant when you have sex, but how much? My team in the School of Public Health here at IU has done product tests and research studies involving lubricant.

We’ve seen that some people think they are using sufficient lubricant, but they’re actually being pretty chintzy about it and only using lubricant comparable to the size of a pencil eraser or a dime. Try using more! Water-based lubricant absorbs quickly into the skin, anyway, so it’s better to start out with more than you think you need.

If you’re still experiencing issues, please check in with another health care provider for a second opinion. You may ask if there appear to be any reasons why you keep tearing. Some women, for example, have skin disorders that make their genital skin more prone to tearing. Once they are successfully treated, which is often done through topical creams, the skin may be stronger and more resilient.

IU wins once at Match Play Championships IU men’s golf went 1-3 at the Big Ten Match Play Championships in Palm Coast, Fla. IU competed Sunday and Monday as the No. 12 seed entering the tournament. IU lost 3-1-1 to No. 5 Northwestern in the first round Sunday.

IU won its only match of the Championships on Monday evening 3-1-2 against Nebraska.

WOMEN’S BASKETBALL

Crean talks starting lineup at radio show

By Alden Woods aldwoods@indiana.edu | @acw9293

IU Coach Tom Crean took part in his weekly radio show Monday night.

The Hoosiers (18-8, 8-5) remain out of the national rankings after a one-win, one-loss week.

A few highlights: Crean “anxious” for Mosquera-Perea Junior forward Hanner Mosquera-Perea didn’t play in either of IU’s last two games against Purdue.

A suspension and an injury kept him out of those two contests, both of which IU lost.

Crean said he was “anxious” to see what Mosquera-Perea can provide against Purdue’s size Thursday.

“It’s going to be critical that he continue to improve for us,” Crean said.

Mosquera-Perea, who is still working his way back from the knee injury that held him out of seven games, played 14 minutes against Minnesota on Sunday.

Crean has been wary of working the 6-foot-9 forward back into full game action too quickly, but said his presence on the defensive end has been missed. He’ll be especially important against Purdue’s pair of 7-footers, A.J. Hammons and Isaac Haas, on Thursday, he said.

“Bottom line is that Hanner’s got to cover a lot of ground. We need him to be a lot more proactive defensively,” Crean said.

“When he’s proactive and when he’s in position early and he’s mixing up his coverages, he’s using his length and his speed and his strength, that’s good for us.”

Crean expects even more from the offense IU’s 18 3-pointers Sunday set not only a program record, but a Big Ten record in conference play. The Hoosiers scored 90 points for the first time since Dec. 13.

Even with the outburst of points, Crean said he saw areas for improvement on offense.

IU turned the ball over 18 times against Minnesota, its third-highest total of the season.

“We definitely left some points on the table,” Crean said.

The Hoosiers don’t run a lot of set plays, instead relying on fluidity and individual talent to see the offense through. That flexibility naturally leads to some streaky offensive

performance.

“Sometimes there’s set plays, but most of the time, it’s just concepts and actions to play off of with this team,” Crean said.

IU not thinking postseason yet Five games remain in IU’s regular season. Three of those will take place in Assembly Hall, where the Hoosiers are 15-1 this season.

Through Monday, IU is tied for fifth place in the Big Ten, one game out of second place. The top four finishers in the conference regular season will receive a double-bye in next month’s Big Ten Tournament.

But none of that is a concern, Crean said. He’s trying to keep his team focused on the next game and worry about the postseason when the time comes.

“I haven’t even thought about that, to be honest with you, in the sense of how that would play out,” he said.

The goal, Crean said, is not to win games for the sake of tournament seeding — it’s just to win games.

“If we’re winning every game that we can win, hopefully that will work itself out,” Crean said.

Starting lineup still not set in stone When a fan asked whether Mosquera-Perea would return to the starting lineup or sophomore forward Collin Hartman would remain the starter, Crean said it remains to be seen.

“I would give you my stock answer, that we could go a lot of different ways,” Crean said. “That’s really the truth, though.”

Hartman has started all 10 games since MosqueraPerea suffered a knee injury Jan. 12.

The Hoosiers’ offense has been boosted by Hartman’s versatility and shooting ability, but they’ve been unable to replace Mosquera-Perea’s defensive presence and size.

“The bottom line is we have versatility,” Crean said. “We’re not going to get away from spreading the floor, but at the same time, we have to get better defensively.

“The key is to have enough guys that are good enough to start, good enough to come into the middle of the game, but also good enough to close the game. And I would say Hanner and Collin are both in all three of those categories.”

IU rebounds despite height

By Brody Miller brodmill@indianaedu @brody_miller_

School Penn State

IU has had two key areas of concern this season: Lack of experience and height.

Counting only active players, IU currently stands as the shortest team in the Big Ten in terms of average height.

Despite this fact, IU is fourth in the conference in defensive rebounding percentage. This basically means that when IU makes a defensive stop, it gets the rebound.

IU does not get as many offensive rebounds, placing 11th in offensive rebounding percentage. IU tends to have players on the perimeter on offense, meaning less bodies set up for offensive boards.

Moren discusses turnover struggles

By Brody Miller brodmill@indiana.edu | @Brody_Miller_

In the four games leading up to Sunday, sophomore guard Larryn Brooks scored 22, 7, 11 and 14 points. Sunday at No. 13 Iowa, Brooks shot 2-of-10 for six points.

Brooks has been up and down throughout the season, and IU Coach Teri Moren addressed her team’s inconsistencies on her radio show Monday.

When asked about how Brooks can regain her form as a leading scorer for IU, Moren said she didn’t know.

“I wish I had the answer for you there,” Moren said.

“I think we’ve been searching for that, I think she’s been searching for that. The ability to be consistent night in, night out.”

Moren thought the addition of more scorers going into Brooks’ second season with the Hoosiers would take the pressure off of her. However, that has not been the case.

She has been playing with that same pressure, Moren

said, and she sometimes tries to make offense happen on her own when there is not a good look.

Brooks has continued to play with edge and focus, but she needs to regain that consistency. Regardless of her occasional struggles, Moren wants her in the lineup.

“There is no question we are a better basketball team when she is on the floor,” Moren said.

IU lost 81-64 on Sunday to No. 13 Iowa. The loss was not a surprise, and Moren said the ranking Iowa has is one it deserves, but there were areas of the game that the team could have controlled better.

An example: holding onto the ball.

“I think the biggest takeaway is they got 20 more shot attempts than we got,” Moren said.

IU wasted possessions and did not get shots off due to turnovers. IU turned the ball over 16 times, and both point guards, Brooks and freshman Tyra Buss, turned the ball over five times each.

Iowa scored 21 points off of IU’s turnovers. Moren said Buss had turnovers that were not forced. She had balls bounce off her leg. Brooks had errant passes that simply went out of bounds. “(The Hawkeyes) weren’t great yesterday, but they were good enough that they were able to get us,” Moren said.

Another issue was rebounding. IU was outrebounded 36-to-27, but more importantly, it gave up 13 offensive rebounds. Iowa was not considered to be a great rebounding team.

“That was one of the areas that we thought that we would have success in,” Moren said.

Instead, the Hawkeyes had little issues regaining control of missed shots. On one possession in the first half, they had four consecutive offensive rebounds. Moren said part of that comes down to long shots ending up as longer rebounds off the rim.

She also said IU needed to get more bodies on opposing rebounders.

When mentioning IU’s

next game Wednesday at Michigan, Moren displayed some sure confidence.

“We are going to win this game,” Moren said.

The Wolverines are coming off a one point loss to Northwestern last Saturday.

A key opponent to watch will be forward Cyesha Goree, who is averaging 14.4 points and 10.2 rebounds per game this season. Moren said IU will need to get bodies on her and hands in her face.

“There’s no question that the offense goes through her,” Moren said.

Then, IU has its final home game of the season Saturday against No. 21 Nebraska.

All the final games down the stretch are meaningful, Moren said, and IU has shown it can play good basketball in Assembly Hall.

It will also be senior night for guard Andrea Mize, as well as other members of the program that are not active.

Mize has scored five points this season, three of which came last week in a win against Illinois.

After hitting .429 and driving in three runs against Stanford, junior shortstop Nick Ramos was named Big Ten Player of the Week.

After three games, Ramos leads IU in batting average, slugging percentage (.571) and on-base percentage (.545). He also ranks second on the team in RBIs behind senior Casey Rodrigue and is tied for first on the team in walks with three.

Ramos started all three games of the series at shortstop and applied the tag on a runner attempting to steal second that ended Saturday’s 4-3 win.

Ramos also stole a base Saturday, the only base IU stole during the series.

Last season, Ramos started 50 games at shortstop,

cação, an organization that works to give scholarships to kids in low-income areas.

School management is poor. Okret said many administrators are actually politicians without backgrounds in education management.

The system works against kids with disadvantages. Because it is impossible to flunk out or be held back in public schools, there is a lack of incentive for kids to do well.

The failing education structure particularly affects kids from poorer neighborhoods, who Okret said are much more likely to struggle with learning disabilities.

Because students aren’t separated based on specific learning needs, kids with disabilities are kept from accessing the resources they need to succeed.

In 2012, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development reported only 53 percent of the young adult Brazilian population had completed secondary school. The OECD global average is 82 percent.

The Brazilian government totes expanded education spending and wider availability of schools to lowincome students in recent years.

The problem likely isn’t spending, though. According to the OECD website, “the quality of education has not kept pace with the impressive expansion of the system. There are severe shortages in physical school infrastructure.”

“I don’t think they’re doing enough,” Okret said.

She believes the government needs to improve quality more than it needs to increase spending.

“I fell in love right away,” Micheletti said.

He has considered moving back to the U.S. now that Fulbright has released him from his obligations. His son is already certain he wants to attend college in the States, and sometimes he worries about burning out in Brazil.

“We have a lack of education in Brazil,” Micheletti said. “For music, it’s not different.”

Okret and the administrators at Baccarelli would agree education needs to start at an early age in order to be effective.

At the Baccarelli Institute, the most promising students usually start at the age of four or five.

In the rest of Brazil, students commonly begin the learning process in their teens.

Micheletti said music schools in Brazil struggle with quality and the Institute holds its students to standards not commonly found in Brazil.

Funding remains scarce.

Still, Venturelli has big plans for Baccarelli.

He talks about opening two more schools in another state further north and the Institute having its own auditorium.

Space has been cleared away to make room behind the Institute, and the auditorium’s foundations have slowly started to emerge. But, for the moment, construction is on hold.

As is the case in the rest of Brazil, development happens slowly.
