Bill Cervone's statement clearly indicates that he believes police officers can, in the name of self-defense, shoot any person in their presence armed with a possibly deadly weapon - such as a cane, which is hardly different from a table leg - and wielding it in a dangerous manner.
Things just got a little more difficult for the under-insured and uninsured.
Like most college students, I am quite tied to my Facebook account and have put much of my life on the ever-growing social network. When I first heard about Facebook four years ago, I promised myself I would never sign my deal with the devil and get an account. Four years later and here I am, one of those people who logs on at least twice a day to update myself on things that the website says I care about.
If the zoning code hasn't changed, then the owners of the Fat Tuscan have no argument.
It is love at first sight. It is a Thursday afternoon, and you are exhausted, waiting on the bus and eager to get home.
The weather is going to be great, but you may want to think twice before cracking open a beer and having a pool party this weekend.
I love a good Internet political meme. Most political junkies have their inner circles of friends on an email list-serve that they use to distribute particularly funny or applicable memes. It can be a very enjoyable hobby.
After seeing the column ‘Sexual health care on the cheap’ in the May 13th edition of the Alligator, we’d like to remind readers that the UF Student Health Care Center also offers a full range of sexual health care services available to students.
As a corporation, British Petroleum is deeply saddened by the recent leaks in our interwebs tube that have pumped out an ever-increasing number of highly sensitive and damaging internal documents into the vital Gulf of Public Opinion. We have prepared the following memo as a “top kill procedure” on the destructive flow of information by piping loads of crap into real leaks of BP’s corporate philosophy:

Dear Lamar,
A couple of weeks ago, at the tender age of 19, I finally got my Florida driver's license. After a three-year saga of excuses and missed opportunities, I finally sucked it up and studied hard enough to pass - despite running over a cone and failing my first attempt. While pretty much all college students and young drivers can relate to the experience, I feel like I have a unique view of the whole process.
Imagine a world where all you had to do to get away with shooting a disabled man in the face was say you felt endangered and the law would be on your side.
As a 20-year veteran of the adult entertainment industry, I can tell you this isn't about controlling access to adult material. This is about money, plain and simple.
Last spring, an extraordinary event occurred in Student Government: Members of the Progress and Orange and Blue parties put aside their differences and created a brand-new party that represents all students, not just the lucky few. This new party, the Student Alliance party, immediately got to work by opposing the new Reitz Union student fee. We felt that in times of great economic hardship, the Unite Party was wrong to pass the buck on to the Student Body.
As a three-time UF graduate, I have 10 summer semesters under my belt. Next to fall, it is my favorite time in Gainesville because it has many benefits over the regular season.
