I was given “The Grinch” with Jim Carrey on DVD as a gift this Christmas. After my family and I were done opening presents, we decided to watch the movie on my PS2. While we were watching it, the movie would skip, show purple and green squares, and then the player was unable to read the disk.
What I found most surprising about the State of the Union address was its nearly total concern with economics. Obviously, we have been in a recession, and issues like spending, jobs, and taxes are economic ones. But, apparently, so is our environment, which, by being gradually destroyed, has mercifully opened up a “clean energy market” where we now compete for coveted “clean energy jobs.
I know the warning signs of a non credible website. I’ve watched the news specials, read the articles about identity theft and internet scams, even pitied the women on Dr. Phil who were scammed out of thousands of dollars by their Nigerian love interest, Hansel.
The drinking age hasn’t always been set at the infamous twenty-one years old. Throughout history, debates have raged as society has tried to decide what the drinking age should be. So why is twenty-one the conclusion? Why not eighteen, as it was long ago? I have heard many different opinions on this topic, even just in everyday discussions.
Medaille College is a small, urban campus. The campus has only a few buildings on the Main Campus in Buffalo. The only major buildings we have on campus are: the Main Building, the Sullivan Campus Center, Huber Hall, Downey Science Building, and both of the Residence Halls.
School’s not everything it’s cracked up to be. I mean it’s really hard trying to balance work, watching MTV’s Jersey Shore, playing video games, sports, eating, gossiping -- oh, and of course classes. I’m not saying everyone falls into the category of “giving pretty much everything else on your To-Do List priority over class work,” but I think it’s safe to say that a lot of people put less important things before the one with the biggest price tag (I think it’s around $19,000 now, without room and board).
It’s December 20, 2012 and Lady Gaga has just officially converted to Scientology. She felt disillusioned with the world. She wanted to make a statement about how she’s not on the same spiritual plane as the depraved and unenlightening masses.
Love it or hate it, there’s no denying that MTV’s latest hit, Jersey Shore, has created a madness that is hard to escape. The reality show, which follows a group of self-proclaimed “guidos” and “guidettes” during their summer at Seaside Heights, has drawn criticism from residents and government officials of New Jersey, celebrities, businesses, and Italian-Americans across the nation.
