Nailing the type.We are oh-so-close on getting typography right, but some of these type problems linger with us.

And once you spot them, they really stick out.

It’s tough to explain these in a critique, so I’m taking the rare liberty of tweaking this typography.

Big Ten Tournament back in Bloomington after 11 years

By AnDy [email protected]

For the first time since 2002, IU will play host to the Big Ten Women’s Tennis Tournament in Bloomington this weekend.

The No. 38 Hoosiers (17-8, 6-5), who finished as the 6-seed, will face 11-seed Wisconsin at 2 p.m. today in their opening-round match.

The top four teams in the conference — No. 6 Michi-gan, No. 16 Nebraska, No. 15 Northwestern and No. 28 Purdue — will receive first round byes and play the winners of today’s opening round matches.

Matches will begin every day at 10 a.m., except for Sunday, when the champi-onship match will be played at 2 p.m.

Weather permitting, all matches will take place at the outdoor IU Varsity Ten-nis Courts, and in the case of inclement weather, matches will be played indoors at the IU Tennis Center.

On Tuesday evening, IU Coach Lin Loring said on a radio show that for matches to be played outdoors, the temperature must be at least 50 degrees and the wind cannot exceed 20 miles per hour.

It will be mostly sunny on Thursday with a high tem-perature of 58 degrees and 16 mile-per-hour winds, ac-cording to weather.com. It is projected to be cloudy with

temperatures in the 60s and a low chance of rain for the rest of the weekend.

“We’ve actually played really well outdoors, but un-fortunately with the way the spring has been, we haven’t had too many opportunities to play outdoors,” Loring said. “We’re confident that whatever way the weather holds this weekend, we can do well.”

Iowa, Ohio State, Minne-sota and Wisconsin tied with a 3-8 record in the Big Ten.

Loring said the teams were so close that the con-ference office had difficulty breaking the tie.

Based on the tiebreaking rules, Iowa finished eighth, Ohio State ninth, Minnesota 10th and Wisconsin 11th.

The Hoosiers defeated the Badgers 7-0 on April 14 in Bloomington.

“I don’t think there will be any surprises,” Loring said. “We’ll know how to prepare for them, and they’ll know how to prepare for us since we just played.”

IU bested Wisconsin 4-0 in the first round of last year’s Big Ten Tournament before falling to Michigan in the quarterfinals.

Hoosiers beat 5-2 earlier in the season.

The Hoosiers finished the regular season with a 6-5 con-ference record, putting them

After being pushed from its original Oscar-friendly release in December 2012, Baz Luhrmann’s jazz age extravaganza fi nally hits theaters.

Man of Steel (opening June 14)

Laura Marling performs a new, unreleased song at every single show she plays, and “I Was An Eagle,” the title track of her upcoming album, may be one of the greatest lyrical compositions the indie folk pixie has written. Going a little more down the blues/rock ‘n’ roll road, her current singles “Where Can I Go?” and “Master Hunter” are fi ercer, brassier and more instrumental than her past work. This album is guaranteed to be a change of pace.

Whether or not you’re obsessed with Benedict Cumberbatch, the “Star Trek” sequel promises to reach new heights of action and melodrama. In the long-awaited follow-up to 2009’s “Star Trek” franchise reboot,

Captain Kirk (Chris Pine) and his USS Enterprise crew are caught off guard by a series of attacks on earth. The crew goes on the hunt for a mysterious human responsible for the violence, John Harrison (Cumberbatch). J.J. Abrams, the newly

appointed “Star Wars” director, returns for his second “Star Trek” movie to go grimmer than “Star Trek” has ever gone before.

I really don’t think it’s a coincidence Pixar decided to release “Monsters University” while I am in university. They knew my big kid façade was just that: a façade. It’s been far too long since Mike Wazowski and James P. Sullivan (Sully) have been on the silver screen back in 2001 with “Monsters Inc.” On June 21, “Monsters

University” will premiere, chronicling the beginning of Mike and Sully’s friendship and how they overcame their diff erences to become the best friends we know and love today. Billy Crystal and John Goodman have returned to voice the green cyclops monster and purple furry giant, respectively. Everything good in the world is happening. So, thank you, Pixar, for continuously lengthening my childhood as far as it’s immaturely possible.

Monsters University (opening June 21)

There are few things in life that are absolutely necessary, and a summer playlist is one of them. With every summer playlist comes Vampire Weekend. The boys from New York released two news songs in March, “Diane Young” and “Step,” their upcoming album, out May 14. “Step” has the wordplay

singer Ezra Koenig is known for, with verses like “Stale conversation deserves but a bread knife,” accompanied by renaissance-themed keyboard. “Diane Young” mixes modern auto-tune with Elvis-like tones dubbed over Koenig’s vocals, all together sounding like a summer’s dream. This album will be a great way

to kick off the season, driving with the windows down. The boys are back in town.

Star-studded comedies usually don’t work. With 10 or more A-listers, there’s not enough screen time to give the actors their equal share, and the jokes fall fl at. But “This Is The End,” which

features James Franco , Seth Rogen , Craig Robinson , Michael Cera , Rihanna , and a slew of others attempting to avoid the apocalypse, promises to be

This Is the End (opening June 14)

Based on Max Brooks’ celebrated novel, the fi lm adaptation of “World War Z” seeks to raise the stakes. Brad Pitt plays Gerry Lane, who travels the earth in search of the cause of the ongoing zombie apocalypse, which threatens to destroy mankind. Marc Forster , who previously

directed “Quantum of Solace,” attempts to bring the novel to life on-screen. Expect lots of explosions and loud noises in this one, like any good summer blockbuster should. And what’s more, it’s got the X-factor (or should I say, Z-factor): everyone loves zombies.

World War Z (opening June 21)

After achieving cult status with its 2010 TRON: Legacy soundtrack, electronic music duo Daft Punk is back and here to “Get Lucky.” Guy-Manuel de Homem-

Christo and Thomas Bangalter, everyone’s favorite Parisian robots, have been making waves by promoting their new album “Random Access Memories” through Saturday Night Live commercials. Though the French duo

hasn’t toured since 2007, they’re ready to prove how Daft Punk works it harder and makes it better. The two chrome-dome androids have selected Pharrell Williams as their new companion for the single “Get Lucky,” making him Daft Punk’s fi rst vocal companion since Romanthony. Romanthony joined the

group for 2001’s seminal album “Discovery,” which remains a dance club staple 12 years after the fact. And now we’re gonna celebrate… one more time.

“Superbad” and “Pineapple Express,” so expect no shortage of laughs here. “This Is the End” will be raunchy, ridiculous and riotous.

Every day, Ramon wakes in a cell with four other inmates at Madison Correctional Fa-cility for Women . She should be preparing her 4-year-old daughter for kindergarten or taking her to Chuck E. Cheese’s . Instead, Ramon is in an intensive drug rehabilita-tion program, a task she is paid 12 cents a day to complete.

In August 2011 , offi cers from the Bloomington Police Department arrested 26-year-old Ramon for theft and pos-session of a controlled sub-stance when she tried stealing from a local hair salon, high on Xanax .

“You have to know there is going to be temptation when you get out,” Ramon said. “You have to be strong, and what I’m working on right now is getting myself stronger.”

If she wasn’t incarcerated, she knows she would be dead by now. With her boyfriend al-ready dead from a heroin over-dose , their daughter would be left an orphan.

* * *

About 100 people die from drug overdoses every day in the United States , according to the Centers for Disease Con-trol and Prevention . Overdose death rates have more than tripled in the past decade .

While the misuse and abuse of prescription pain-killers has resulted in more overdose deaths than cocaine and heroin combined , about half of prescription painkiller deaths involve at least one other drug.

In middle school and high school in Ellettsville , Ramon participated in choir , gym-nastics and softball . In eighth grade she joined the cheer-leading squad . She dreamed of becoming a fashion designer .

For years she scoff ed at people who used needles to get high. Later, she became one of them.

When Ramon was 17 and at Edgewood High School , a boy-friend presented her with the

Xanax he was getting from his grandmother.

At 18 , Ramon’s sister-in-law introduced her to Jacob Cot-ton and the two began dating. Cotton had a prescription to both Xanax and methadone . Watching Cotton take both medications every day, Ra-mon became curious so she indulged.

Ramon enjoyed metha-done highs but couldn’t bear the withdrawals. Her body felt like it weighed a million pounds. She needed to use the drug every day to go to work at the local Marathon conve-nience store .

“I remember times when it was a chore for me to jump into the shower and get ready,” Ramon said.

Fewer than half of IU’s schol-arship players from this past sea-son will return for the 2013-14 campaign.

IU Coach Tom Crean an-nounced Wednesday in a press release that rising-senior guard Maurice Creek will not return to IU and instead seek a transfer to a school where he can get more playing time .

“Maurice and his family have decided to pursue an opportunity where he can fi nd the type of role that would provide him the min-utes he desires and is accustomed to,” Crean said in the press release.

Creek, with a 7.2 career scoring average in 54 games with IU, will graduate in May and be imme-diately eligible for a fi nal season with his new team.

With Creek’s departure, there are now no remaining members of the six-man 2009 IU recruiting class still on the team. Two trans-ferred within the fi rst two seasons while three exhausted their eligi-bility as seniors this year .

Creek has a remaining season of eligibility after earning a medi-cal redshirt due to injuries.

Th e Oxon Hill, Md. native was among the most ballyhooed of the group when they arrived as fresh-men, and perhaps fi rst to emerge as a signifi cant contributor.

He led the team with a 17.6 scoring average through 12 games including 31 against then-No. 4 Kentucky. Th ree games later, however, in a 90-42 trouncing of Bryant, Creek suff ered a season-ending left knee injury.

He would again suff er a sea-son-ending injury the next sea-son. In 2011-12, he was injured before the season began and missed the entire year, resulting in his medical redshirt.

Creek returned this season, though, playing through the sea-son and reaching the postseason. He averaged 1.8 points in 7.8 min-utes per game — highlighted by nine points against Ball State Nov. 25.

He also became a father that

Education programsto face evaluation

FROM IDS REPORTS

Senate Bill 409 has moved through the Legislature and will now go to the desk of Gov. Mike Pence. Th is bill would set forth the Commission on Education Legislative Study Committee to help evaluate teacher educa-tion schools, departments and programs.

Th e bill is authored by Sena-tors Jim Banks, R-Columbia City; Carlin Yoder, R-Middleburry; and Dennis Kruse, R-Auburn, co-authored by Sen. Earline Rogers, D-Gary, and sponsored in the house by Rep. Robert Behning, R-Indianapolis.

Education programs will now be required to submit certain in-formation to the committee such as completion rates of candidates and the types of teaching posi-tions participants receive. Th e committee will also collect pass rates of candidates taking educa-tion licensing exams.

Th e department will inspect education programs and work with them to ensure participants can achieve the highest profes-sional standards.

Dean Gerardo Gonzalez of the IU School of Education said he welcomes the new evaluation program. Th e School of Educa-tion, he said, is already collecting some of their own data, such as graduation and retention rates.

“Th ese are all things we gener-ally do anyway,” he said.

Gonzalez said he believes this new committee will help keep programs responsible to their students and to the Indiana edu-cation system as a whole.

“We would welcome that kind of accountability,” he said.

He said the School of Educa-tion has received positive feed-back from graduates and employ-ers. Th e 2011 and 2012 Indiana teachers of the year were both School of Education graduates.

He said the collection of reli-able data would help keep people from making incorrect assump-tions about the state of education and, if done correctly, will help advance the way teachers are evaluated.

“Th e data suggest we are do-ing a very good job,” he said.

Th e Oxon Hill, Md. native was among the most ballyhooed of the group when they arrived as fresh-men, and perhaps fi rst to emerge as a signifi cant contributor.

He led the team with a 17.6 scoring average through 12 games including 31 against then-No. 4 Kentucky. Th ree games later, however, in a 90-42 trouncing of Bryant, Creek suff ered a season-ending left knee injury.

He would again suff er a sea-son-ending injury the next sea-son. In 2011-12, he was injured before the season began and missed the entire year, resulting in his medical redshirt.

Creek returned this season, though, playing through the sea-son and reaching the postseason. He averaged 1.8 points in 7.8 min-utes per game — highlighted by nine points against Ball State Nov. 25.

Education programsto face evaluation

FROM IDS REPORTS

Senate Bill 409 has moved through the Legislature and will now go to the desk of Gov. Mike Pence. Th is bill would set forth the Commission on Education Legislative Study Committee to help evaluate teacher educa-tion schools, departments and programs.

Th e bill is authored by Sena-tors Jim Banks, R-Columbia City; Carlin Yoder, R-Middleburry; and Dennis Kruse, R-Auburn, co-authored by Sen. Earline Rogers, D-Gary, and sponsored in the house by Rep. Robert Behning, R-Indianapolis.

Education programs will now be required to submit certain in-formation to the committee such as completion rates of candidates and the types of teaching posi-tions participants receive. Th e committee will also collect pass rates of candidates taking educa-tion licensing exams.

Th e department will inspect education programs and work with them to ensure participants can achieve the highest profes-sional standards.

Dean Gerardo Gonzalez of the IU School of Education said he welcomes the new evaluation program. Th e School of Educa-tion, he said, is already collecting some of their own data, such as graduation and retention rates.

“Th ese are all things we gener-ally do anyway,” he said.

Gonzalez said he believes this new committee will help keep programs responsible to their students and to the Indiana edu-cation system as a whole.

“We would welcome that kind of accountability,” he said.

He said the School of Educa-tion has received positive feed-back from graduates and employ-ers. Th e 2011 and 2012 Indiana teachers of the year were both School of Education graduates.

He said the collection of reli-able data would help keep people from making incorrect assump-tions about the state of education and, if done correctly, will help advance the way teachers are evaluated.

“Th e data suggest we are do-ing a very good job,” he said.
