After being vacant for almost four months, the campus sustainability coordinator position was filled yesterday by Noelle Studer, former sustainability coordinator for Portland Community College.

Super Bowl commercials are like the playoffs of the advertising world. Amazing and clever commercials make appearances, but so do the utter disappointments.

Sometimes life can feel like too much to handle. The world can feel cold and uncaring. The pressures of expectations–your own and others–build up to such a level that you might wish you could just escape from it all.

To say that videogame developer Goichi Suda makes weird games would be an understatement. In a world of knockoff Grand Theft Auto and Halo clones, Suda 51 (go-ichi translates roughly to 5 and 1 in Japanese) games deliver offbeat, stylish and violent (oh-so-violent) experiences, where fighting headless Japanese businessmen and filming up-skirt shots of female news reporters for “erotic” points is common practice.

Bobcats’ senior guard Carlos Taylor is averaging a conference-leading 18.4 points per game and should be a threat to score from anywhere on the floor.

It might sound horrible, but it won’t be without a purpose–it will be to get on the motherfucking Real World.

Most people who watch TV will be watching the Super Bowl this Sunday. But what do you do if you don’t like football? You could read a book, I guess. Or exercise. Or play the guitar. Or do something of value to society. But none of those activities really lend themselves to nacho eating. And everyone loves nachos.
