Attention honeygirls: Feeling depressed? Is the weight of the world on those dainty, hardworking shoulders? Well, besides popping pills and taking breathers, there may be a different way for you to calm the hell down. A different, sexier way.

When's the last time you were at the Buehler Alumni and Visitors Center? If you're like most students, it was probably back when you were a fresh-faced high schooler visiting Davis with your parents.

I am not a bicycle cougar - I like to ride bikes that are my age, not 20 years younger. While this terrible metaphor is extended, let me go farther to say that I don't mind a little junk in the trunk ... so long as it's junk on a trailer attached to a bicycle.

Every summer, 130,000 nerds flock to San Diego for the event of a lifetime. With tickets that continue to sell out as quickly as *NSYNC seats in 2001, Comic-Con is the fourth-largest convention in the world. Contrary to popular belief, Comic-Con isn't just about your Spidermen and your Green Hornets/Lanterns. In the last decade or so, the convention has become the ultimate place to be for all things pop culture.

It's almost that time of year again: Mother's Day. You nearly forgot, didn't you?

This week has been a veritable smorgasbord of media coverage on the death of Osama bin Laden, and for once, such a banquet is justified. Unlike Donald Trump's campaign to delegitimize the circumstances surrounding President Obama's birth, this story is a swift reminder that whether our President was born in America or not, his executive heart is with the families who lost their loved ones in the attacks on Sept. 11, 2001 and there is simply nothing more American than that.
