Maybe you’ve seen it all over the Internet over the past two months. Phrases like ‘Eat the rude,’ and ‘Fannibals’ have proliferated throughout the Web as the T.V. show “Hannibal” gained a loyal fan base and was renewed for a second season. Perhaps you’ve heard of the infamous Dr. Hannibal Lecter from the T.V. show or the movies “Red Dragon,” “Silence of the Lambs," “Hannibal” or “Hannibal Rising.” If you’re considering taking on the series, I recommend starting with the very first book, “Red Dragon.”

Last month, Microsoft revealed the Xbox One, its newest iteration into the Xbox home console series. Its reception? A short hurrah for news regarding release later this year, followed quickly by a great deal incoherent rage and expletives as Microsoft revealed a number features that have much of the gaming community shaking their heads and typing in all caps on message forums.

Robbie Rogers is an openly gay athlete who plays soccer. In European countries, this would mean he’d get a few chants dedicated to him from fans of opposing teams. In America, it means he’s making history.

Cody Wilson is a 25-year-old University of Texas law student, self-proclaimed market anarchist and co-founder of the arms manufacturing company Defense Distributed. The company has managed to set itself apart from other arms manufacturers because its fully functional handguns and semi-automatic rifle components are available for free to anyone with an Internet connection and access to a 3-D printer. With the advent of 3-D printable firearms and the mass distribution of them via Internet downloads, Wilson has been dubbed one of the “15 Most Dangerous People in the World” by www.wired.com and National Security blog, Danger Room. The only people who should really consider Wilson and company dangerous are law makers and anti-gun enthusiast on Capitol Hill.

When Claire Boucher (aka electronic pop artist Grimes) announced on her Tumblr that her world tour and album cycle were over, it wasn’t a friendly goodbye. The post, brimming with repetition of a world she did not wish to be a part of, surprised me because as the poster child for not giving a damn, Boucher wasn’t supposed to let an industry (whether music or fashion) and its preconceptions get to her. After all, her image told me so. Reading the post, I was proved wrong and so were thousands of other fans: her image does not define her. The image she baptized herself with has been taken out of personal context and fantasized into somebody over the Internet’s dream.

Catering to a population that spends just as much time watching television as they do working, sleeping and going to school, it is no surprise that online video sites have begun to charge users to stream their favorite shows and movies.

If you aren’t feeling the pain of Summer A tests yet, you’ll feel it soon. If the tests don’t get to you, then maybe the stray bear in Gainesville will. If you’re still standing after that, then look out because we’re tossing our...

After the alphabetical chanting is over and your sassy Preview staffer has left you with a kind note of encouragement, you leave Preview weekend with a schedule of classes, too many papers to keep track of and a pleasant (or haunting) experience rooming with another person in a brick white-walled dorm room.

As students at UF, we understand how important it is to have a resume that showcases our talents and abilities. Almost every job we apply for is highly competitive, so we need to make ourselves stand out. Despite that, some of us have experience that will never be on our resumes.

Since the birth of feminism, it seems its ideology has been engaged in a more-than-happy marriage with radically left, anti-capitalist ideology and has enjoyed being bedfellows with the state. The repetitive cries of feminists who call for women to fight patriarchy while they join the struggle to escape the position of male dependency becomes void, at best, once you examine their means to their ends. The only system in which women can be truly counted as equals in society is laissez-faire capitalism.

It seems like the Internet has made every day, or month, a food holiday. (Which we're definitely not complaining about.) As May draws to an end, it's important everyone is aware of National Hamburger Month. Disclaimer: I love meat.

We all know the drill. You see an acquaintance from afar. You don’t really feel like talking to him, so you pull out your cellphone and feign interest in it. You keep your eyes glued to the screen so you don’t make eye contact with the person you’re avoiding. Once you’re at a safe distance, the relief sets in that you’ve dodged the proverbial bullet that is face-to-face interaction.

After the alphabetical chanting is over and your sassy Preview staffer has left you with a kind note of encouragement, you leave Preview weekend with a schedule of classes, too many papers to keep track of and a pleasant (or haunting) experience rooming with another person in a brick white-walled dorm room. Though that schedule may look solid, chances are you may want to switch things around. Maybe you want to pursue another major, or MMC1702 Rock n’ Roll & American Society seems too good to miss. Choosing courses can get tricky and frustrating, but there are plenty of sources to rely on when you need guidance.
