Gamer Girl: Five essential games for beginners

As much as I love games now, I was a late bloomer. I never had consoles as a kid, and I never desired to until high school. When I finally did buy my console, I also bought many of the big name games that had recently come out like

Science with Dan: Birth abnormalities and disorders should not be cause for stigmatization, rather acceptance

In the present day, each person is faced with a constant plethora of issues in which one is forced to deem whether something is right or wrong based on a chosen set of rules which we give credence to as morality. Some things are more cut and dry such as murder, stealing and rape. Others, like gender identity crisis in cases of those born with hermaphroditism and other genetic disorders, cannot be labeled so easily by categorized levels of what is moral, much in the same way they cannot be labeled in the biological sense.

That's A Wrap: Quicksilver will zoom his way into theaters soon

Even though the new Thor film, Thor: The Dark World, will be released next month, most comic book film news lately has been centered on the new X-Men film, X-Men: Days of Future Past. iO9, an online publication that covers science and science fiction, interviewed Evan Peters, who will play the role of the mutant Pietro Maximoff, better known as Quicksilver. Peters is best known for staring in FX’s American Horror Story.

Science with Dan: Water is so much more than a thirst quencher

H2O. Water. Aqua. We give this substance a billion different names. We drink it every day of our lives. We usually start our days by pouring it all over ourselves. We even poop in it. It is everywhere and is involved in pretty much everything that we do. It is essential to our survival. We can only survive for three days without ingesting it, yet so often we set it aside and refuse to give it the respect that this nutrient deserves.

The PHILosopher: Backups are a must

I’m on my ninth iPhone and my second Macbook Pro. My 2010 Macbook Pro got stolen during a party last year and I bust more iPhones than beer bottles on any given weekend. Unfortunately, my column this week will be very short due to the fact that I have suffered water damage to my now second Macbook Pro.

Between the Lines: Shutdown causes delay in information, news

Phones go straight to voicemail. Messages on federal government websites apologetically confirm their dormant state, if they are even accessible. Amid the 800,000 furloughed government employees, some are public information officers in charge of communicating with the media and providing essential information. Those who are not furloughed are often overburdened and short-staffed. There is never a good time for Congress to slip into a political coma, but last week was an especially bad time to do so with Affordable Care Act Health Care Exchanges opening, the federal government shutting down and a car crash ending in tragedy in Washington D.C.
