I spend an awful large amount of time looking at food blogs. Like, a whole lot of time. If you looked at my Google Reader feed, it's pretty much mostly food blogs at this point.
If you happen to sit on a panel that deals with discrimination policy, you probably also don't want to be posting racial slurs online.
We are often implored to look local after graduation to find employment. Gainesville has an entrepreneurial culture and is trying to become a center for start-ups, especially in the tech industry. Unfortunately, the policies of the local government will be sure to stunt Gainesville's growth for the foreseeable future. Gainesville is obsessed with collecting large tax revenues, regulating everything and taking profits from brick-and-mortar businesses to give to imaginary ones.
There is some misinformation circulating about the Florida Animal Rescue Act. Despite claims, Senate Bill 818/House Bill 597 does not force the transfer of "unwanted strays" to nonprofit animal rescue organizations.
Troublemakers around UF might have thought we weren't going to call them out anymore considering we didn't have our traditional Friday editorial last week.
If ever there was a moment for the Student Government to turn to Article VII of its Constitution, dealing with impeachment of executive officers, the recent election debacle would be it.
On July 30, 1956, President Dwight D. Eisenhower signed a resolution declaring the phrase "In God We Trust" the official motto of the U.S.
Why is health care so dang expensive? It concerns me to see that the default solution to any problem is more government regulation. Congress seems to love passing more laws, but it never thinks that maybe its mountains of legislation are the source of the problem.
Given that we are still a couple of months away from the first votes being cast in the Republican presidential primary, many of you probably couldn't care less about the candidates because you aren't voting or aren't voting for Republicans.
Don't even talk to me about deadlines. At this point, I'm a deadline professional. Without them, I'd be lost. I've relied on major deadlines for most of my education.
In Palm Bay, Nick Martinez recently found out by being suspended that his school, Southwest Middle, does not tolerate public displays of affection.
After talking to people in my classes, I find that few know very much about something called a 401(k). How we use it will determine who among us are millionaires at retirement and who will live in poverty. Our grandparents got pensions and worked for the same employer for 30 years. We will be given the option to use one of the most powerful financial tools ever created for retirement, but some will succeed wildly and some will fail miserably. When you go out and get a job after graduation, funding a 401(k) should be near the top of your priority list.
I would like to thank the Alligator as well as the authors of "Obama is No Better Than Che Guevara" for providing one of the best "fake news" articles this side of the Onion. Their send-up of the intellectual inconsistency and naïveté of the extreme left was nothing short of sidesplitting. I mean, how could anyone read an article defending mass-murdering tyrant Muammar Gadhafi as a leftist hero and not indulge in a hearty chuckle?
This past Tuesday, I witnessed a couple on a Route 36 bus "first-basing it" while a guy sitting across from them stared intently, jostling his naughty bits.
Let's face it. People who buy artificial Christmas trees are just plain un-American.
Two weeks ago, I wrote a column about Herman Cain. My point was simple: Cain is not really a viable contender. We all know it, and humoring another GOP sideshow is just allowing for more eccentric antics that distract from what should be a serious discussion about the person who will likely become the next president of the U.S.
On behalf of the Amalgamated Transit Union Local 1579, I would like to express our condolences to Mr. Abdellatief and his family for the trauma and injuries he has suffered and express our wishes for his full recovery.
In the 1980s, law enforcement officers in Minnesota used a beeper radio transmitter to track a man suspected of purchasing chloroform to make illegal drugs. The police tracked the suspect to his cabin in Wisconsin, where he was arrested.
Sometimes, life can suck.
