INDIANAPOLIS ' Last season, quarterback Peyton Manning and a number of other key players helped Colts coach Jim Mora accomplish things he had never dreamed of. Mora won his first AFC East division crown. He coached the Colts to a 13-3 mark, tying the franchise mark for most wins in a season. Finally, he led Indianapolis to a 10-game improvement from his first 1998-1999 season.
There is nothing that puts a crimp in a healthful eating regime like the start of a new semester. The best of intentions are easily squelched by the need for expediency. Likewise, the ability to concentrate on the benefits of bran evaporates as the nightly reading list bulges beyond 200 pages.
What are you here for in school? What are you here for in life? In a good college education the two questions are related. An education should prepare you for your whole life, not just a career. The voices advocating career preparation in the universities today are loud. Moreover, these loud voices are in danger of drowning out other voices ' voices of wisdom.

FORT WAYNE ' After his team lost to Duke 8-0 at the Soccer Showcase at IU-Purdue University at Fort Wayne Sunday afternoon, IPFW coach Terry Stefankiewicz turned to the stands and thanked the crowd. Stefankiewicz later thanked IU men's soccer coach Jerry Yeagley for his help in drawing other highly touted teams to the inaugural tournament at the Division II school. Stefankiewicz said he came up with the idea for a preseason tournament that would feature nationally ranked teams more than two years ago. Getting sponsorship was difficult at first, but once IU joined the bill, no other teams rejected the offer, Stefankiewicz said.
I'm not too different from the everyday college football fan, except I get my thoughts published, so at least use me as a bathroom reader. Pick me up, read me, do your business and drop me. That's all I really want. But I will try to give some insight into IU's football program while introducing you to some of the unique Hoosier personalities and breaking down the team's strengths and weaknesses.
Alpha Sigma Phi will likely be back on campus this fall after its Nov. 3, 1999 suspension for repeated alcohol violations, Dean of Students Richard McKaig said Monday night.
One-man-bands have always had something of a stigma attached to them. After all, the genre was pioneered by Wesley Willis, a certified schizophrenic from Chicago. He has spent the past 20 years touring, pounding out songs such as "I'm Sorry I Got Fat" on his keyboard.
Let me set you up with the situation: It's about 4 p.m., you can see the humidity in the air, your car has no air conditioning and you have been gridlocked in standstill traffic for what seems like forever. It sounds like Chicago traffic on a Friday afternoon, but it isn't. I'm actually describing Bloomington, with its booming street and building construction.
The new bus plan passed by the board of trustees this summer will phase in expanded services for students during the course of the next three years. It includes universal access to Bloomington Transit, extended hours on weekends for both BT and campus services and additional campus buses. All of these services will be funded by a mandatory fee paid by all students, regardless of whether they use the bus service. Exemptions will only be made for a few students, such as those studying abroad. The added expense of these fees does not benefit most students, especially on-campus students who are now forced to subsidize the Bloomington Transit system. These on-campus students will still primarily use the campus bus, for which they must now still purchase an additional pass. Those off-campus students who walk, drive or live far from a BT bus stop are paying for nothing.
Police responded Saturday to a report of a man beating his head against the wall of a building in the 900 block of N. Illinois Street and arrested a Bloomington man after he yelled at an officer, police said.

"Drop your cocks, and grab your socks: It's time to saddle a mule." That is the cry that sophomore Mary Solecki heard every summer morning in her outdoor tent cabin from Wayne, a rough and tumble, 60-year-old cowboy who was one of the lead mule drivers at Yosemite National Park in California.
Men's soccer coach Jerry Yeagley predicted a tough match Saturday between his Hoosiers and IU-Purdue University at Fort Wayne. The match indeed was a tough one. For IPFW.
