Philly no friend of man's best friend

In a strange twist of fate, a single city has clumsily tripped into the epicenter of the debate over animal cruelty in America. This city has taken a bold stand in favor of dog fighting on legal and social levels, voluntarily placing itself in the line of fire against existing federal law and overwhelming public opinion.

Bucking for Bucks

Lauren Baldwin, a UF student and member of Sigma Kappa Sorority, rides a mechanical bull at Alpha Gamma Rho's 15th annual BuckOff philanthropy event at :08 downtown Wednesday night. The event raised money for the Gainesville Winn Dixie Hope Lodge, which provides cancer patients with lodging when they need to travel for treatment.

Sex in a different city offers welcome relief, adventure

Despite the fact that we attend a university with nearly 50,000 students, Gainesville is not a metropolitan haven that you can have anonymous sex with a stranger who you'll never see again.

Pack, make for the border (of another state) and indulge in a weekend vacation.
