Let’s see here. Getting home late from a sporting event. Going to sleep at eleven or twelve if you have homework. Waking up in the morning to go to class at 5:30? This is what most zero hour students do every other day. Zero hour is class you can take before school starts; it can be taken as an extra... Read more »

The other day I was driving into school, and I happened to notice the lane I wanted to drive through was practically closed. There was a truck half way into the street, and a car that thought it could park wherever it so chose. I couldn’t believe people are actually this bad at parking, When I took... Read more »

In a dark and depressing world a company finds the cure to every known disease: artificial organs.

Shutter Island entices viewer

Filed under Opinion

The title Shutter Island sets the vibe for the movie right away. The previews made it appear as more as a horror movie, but it’s actually more mystery. The movie sets the creepy level at high when it explains the 1954 case that U.S. Marshal Edward “Teddy” Daniels and his partner Chuck Aule are... Read more »

Health Care Re-form. What does it mean? Is it the answer to the prayers of countless people without health care? Will it be the downfall of President Barrack Obama’s agenda? Or will it merely further divide what is an already deeply divided nation? The answer to all of these questions is yes… and... Read more »

Valentines Day is that one special day that girls look forward to all year, or at least the cheesy ones who like presents.

DeLay of Game

How young is too young? For a 13 year-old 7th grader to make a decision about what college he will attend is stupid. David Sills could finally watch the PG-13 rated Transformers movie without a parent around, and now he is already verbally committing to USC?   When coaches start recruiting kids before... Read more »

You get to school late on a Monday morning. It’s cold outside and all you can think about is getting inside, so you try the door, but it’s locked! You try all of the doors and you realize they’re all locked. The only way to get in is to “buzz in” at the door, by pressing a button that sends... Read more »
