With the 100th episode in their sights, Seth McFarlane and the other writers behind Family Guy must have wanted to do something “freakin’ sweet” to celebrate its centennial. Problem is, this episode, as with the recent episodes, just isn’t as funny as Family Guy used to be.
Originally Published March 12, 2007 Female Genital Cutting, also sometimes called female circumcision, is a practice carried on in many countries in Africa and Indonesia, with varying prevalence. FGC is generally decried as a human rights violation by western society and considered abuse. However, in our society, we often carry out circumcision on infant boys.
It’s Election Day again, at least for Associated Students here at CSUN. Time for the small population of students who actually get around to voting to decide which senators will represent which colleges and which presidential hopeful will win the president’s chair.
The University Student Union recently proposed a “comprehensive recreation center,” with cool things like a rock climbing wall, a boxing studio and baby-sitting services. If I am interpreting the USU’s voter’s guide correctly, it sounds like the beginning of a new fitness center that could offer fitness classes for the unmotivated exercisers like myself, who would never go use the pre-existing Fitness Centre that CSUN currently offers.
After the insane fallout and the highly polarized sides to the Mel Gibson debacle, any amount of amusement from me is gone.

The bill AB 152, recently reported on by the Sundial, sounds like a great, albeit ambitious, idea. The bill, if passed, would allow people to buy tuition for future college attendance at today’s price. It’s a potentially great idea for parents to buy tuition at the current costs in an effort to put their children through college cheaper in the future.
Every one knows someone who has downloaded music illegally, and probably has themselves. And I’m pretty sure student downloading hasn’t diminished all that much when the Recording Industry Association of America, or RIAA, first began to crack down on illegal downloading by suing, among others, old ladies without computers, or even worse, the deceased.
