Could women be forgotten in history?

Betsy Garcia April 29, 2008
In the history of earth and human creation, we have all been taught that Eve was created after Adam. Women were second to be created. Does that mean that women should always come second to men in all aspects of life? Think back to the history books, did you really ever read about important women in history? Women are important in this world no matter what they have to offer.

‘ChickenHare’ burns bright with ‘Fire in the Hole’

Anthony Graham April 29, 2008
Do you remember what it was like to pick up the Sunday paper for a parent or older sibling? To take to them the heavy stack of black and white and ask for only one thing in return? Undoubtedly, we eventually graduated to other sections of the newspaper, but we all started by simply asking for the Funnies.

He said/she said: Overzealous ladies

Dylan Miles and Betsy Garcia April 29, 2008
The saying "few and far between" is often over looked these days, especially when it comes to relationships and the opposite sex.

It might have stopped at a couple of movies-but it didn't. As of late, the franchise has given us a third movie to round out the cinematic series to trilogy status, a television show on Fox dubbed "The Sarah Connor Chronicles" and over two decades worth of fandom and merchandise.

Emerson Muzada April 29, 2008
America's dimwitted duo are back. Only this time they aren't in search of White Castle's delicious burgers - this time around, they find themselves incarcerated in Guantanamo Bay, the United States military prison for potential terrorists, and eventually as escaped fugitives who look to get a "lift" from the law.

Ivan Yeo April 29, 2008
A weekend that started out fairly well for the CSUN Matador softball team ended up crashing pretty bad. The Matadors shut out the Cal State Fullerton Titans 4-0 in the first game of their crucial three-game series on Saturday, but the Titans recovered, first winning a tightly contested game 4-3 later that day, then by winning the third game in a blowout 7-0 on Sunday afternoon.

Linda Coburn April 29, 2008
With a price tag of $124.8 million, there is some concern that the burden of paying for the construction of the Valley Performing Arts Center, which is set to have its groundbreaking ceremony tomorrow, will eventually end up on the shoulders of students.
