Coffee and newspaper for reading roundup post

Reading roundup: Colts land Frank Gore, Rolling Stones rumor, Rep. Justin Moed

Three days until spring break! Good thing too. I’m groaning under the load of all these papers and projects I’m trying feverishly to get done. I need a break!

Here’s 10 or so more good reads I’ve somehow found time to round up this morning:

  • It’s official: Frank Gore, the five-time Pro Bowl running back with the San Francisco 49ers, is joining the Indianapolis Colts. (IndyStar)
  • Are the Rolling Stones going to announce a July 4 concert at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway? Blogger Steve Spohn’s post about their upcoming “Sticky Fingers” tour has led to feverish speculation on Twitter. (SongMango.com)
  • Incredibly, yet another Democratic representative is in hot water for sexting with Sydney Leathers. This time, it’s Indiana Rep. Justin Moed, who reportedly bought her a pink leash that arrived with his name on the invoice. (IndyStar)
  • Dangerously dense fog settled in around central Indiana on Tuesday night. A fog advisory is in effect until 10 a.m. today. (WTHR)
  • A jury on Tuesday found Robin Thicke and Pharrell Williams guilty of copyright infringement with “Blurred Lines” and ordered them to pay $7.3 million to the Marvin Gaye estate. (Rolling Stone)
  • Wouldn’t Amy Poehler be an AMAZING commencement speaker for Indiana University? David Cohen of Bloomington has started a petition to try to make it happen. (Change.org)
  • Avon’s Cutters Brewing Company announced Tuesday on its Facebook page that it’s shutting down. Does this mean Central Indiana has hit peak craft beer after years of explosive growth? (IndyStar)
  • Rolls-Royce is testing a plan to build commercial-jet engines with 3D printing technology. (The Economist)
  • Hillary Clinton said she never sent classified information via her private email as U.S. secretary of state. Some experts are skeptical. (New York Times) | See also: Clinton said she had no email security breaches. But she doesn’t know that. (Vox)
  • Zoolander lives! Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson walked the runway in character at Paris Fashion Week to announce a sequel to their 2001 movie about a clueless male model brain-washed to kill by corrupt fashion execs. (BuzzFeed)
