BREW FOR YOU

·

Money was worth the paper it was printed on, but beer was worth its weight in gold in the snowy Alaskan wilderness.

Summer movie mindlessness

·

Remember early on in the summer the cool fad in Hollywood seemed to be the claim that this year would prove to be the end of big summer blockbusters, and that the movie-going public was bored with formulaic money-makers. Oh, how these people were wrong.

Geography worth relishing

·

"Sahara" is director Breck Eisner's first major film. I know what you're thinking, "who would give a novice director a film with a budget of $125 million?" Walt Disney executive and daddy Michael Eisner, that's who. But to be fair, Breck Eisner really did prove himself with this well-directed action movie. As actor Steve Zahn said, "I'm in a real movie!"

'Underclassman' Flunks Out

·

Ah, "Underclassman." This has to be one of the least anticipated movies of the year, up there with "Deuce Bigalow: European Gigolo." If you saw the previews for this film and thought, "Hey, that looks delightful," then you are a bad person, and I blame you for being the reason that self-indulgent tripe like this is even made.

Middle-aged bald guy is thrilling

·

In Season 4 of "Curb Your Enthusiasm", Larry David continues to do what he does best: alienate almost everyone around him by saying and doing whatever he pleases, while finding himself in humorous and embarrassing predicaments along the way. Like George Costanza, the "Seinfeld" character based off of him, David has the uncanny knack for getting under people's skin. Even at his most polite, he still refuses to adhere to any normal social standards.

A standing 'O' for obscene 'Aristocrats'

·

Okay, so a guy walks into a talent agent's office with his wife, two kids and a dog. Stop me if you've heard this one. Actually, don't. Chances are even if you have heard it, you haven't heard it the way it's told in "The Aristocrats," a hilarious, if flawed, quasi-documentary from Penn Jillette (of Penn & Teller fame) and Paul Provenza.

Riding out the storm: Part 1

·

I graduated from IU in August and moved to New Orleans to start a graduate program at Tulane University four days before Hurricane Katrina struck. I arrived on a Thursday afternoon and was staying at a hostel on Canal Street whose guests were mostly European and Australian backpackers. Immediately after arriving I was very busy searching for an apartment, taking care of university paper work, and getting settled into the city affectionately known as the Big Easy.

A mother's Love

·

Her voice rang out cool and smooth against the sunshine that speckled Dunn Meadow: Peace is flowing like a river, Flowing out of you and me. No one can take away our pain, Nor bring our soldiers back to life again. Mia Lorraine's song flowed over the small crowd sitting in the shade of one of the meadow's trees, as heads nodded softly in agreement. "People ask how many soldiers have lost their lives in Iraq," said Lorraine, of Sebastopol, Calif., a member of Military Families Speak Out. "I say all of them."

Checking meal point balances not as simple anymore

·

The past two weeks of school have brought frustration to countless students around campus. The frustration, however, is not directed at professors or books. It is directed towards the new cash registers in Residential Programs and Services dining facilities.
