I remember when I lived in Western Ukraine (I am not Russian, as some of you may have thought), I was extremely close to my family. My cousins were substitutes for my non-existent brothers and sisters; my grandparents and my aunts quite often played the role of my parents.

Since most college students live in a media bubble and don't follow current events many of you may not be aware of Obama's recent promise to end the military's policy of "Don't Ask, Don't Tell." It seems that this effort will soon draw the issue of gay rights and its partner gay marriage to the political battlefront.

Of all the events that have shaped Kent State's nearly 100-year history, one - May 4, 1970 - stands a level above the rest.

We do not assume that we are always right. More than anything we wish to stir debate. That is why college campuses and news outlets are called marketplaces of ideas. Last spring we pointed out that just because someone expresses a "bad idea" does not mean it should be blocked from that marketplace.

Global warming has been a hot topic for a substantial part of the 21st century so far. However, does global warming actually deserve all these water-cooler chats and front page headlines?

On the evening of Tuesday, Oct. 21, I scrambled to finish a midterm essay in the library.
I was positioned next to a talkative man and his friend while they worked on a group project.
I listened to them discussing the details of the assignment as they proceeded to refer to their teacher using the derogatory word "c***," as if sexual orientation has anything to do with an instructor's grading process.

Vampire movies. We all watch them at one point or another. There's something sexy about a character that does nothing but feed and mate for all eternity. It makes most of us lust for a life so simple and (mostly) care free.
It seems that as long as people have told stories there have been vampire stories, and as long as there have been movies, some form of a vampire character on the screen.

The Student Government Association last Thursday, Oct. 29 amended its constitution and adopted diversity training for students that receive a stipend this them.
This will guarantee that all staff members will have at least some training in how to be more sensitive toward minority groups on campus.

As I ran in the back halls of the Student Center to get to my locker and go to work, I ran into a custodian holding out a piece of candy for me. "It's Halloween," she said. I grabbed it and said thanks. Before I knew it, I was in my work clothes, working and thinking no more of that simple act of kindness - ironically, I was eating the piece of candy I was just given.

First and foremost, congratulations and thanks to the Youngstown State University Police department for their diligent work in finding the student carrying a gun on campus on Monday. Not an easy task with a limited description. Lucky or not, thank you for keeping us all safe.

By far the most publicized and most advocated (both for and against) ballot measure in Ohio is Issue 3, which will allow the construction of four casinos in Ohio, one each in Cleveland, Cincinnati, Columbus and Toledo. Some of the advertisements, paid for by the Ohio Jobs and Growth Committee, suggest that a 'yes' vote on Issue 3 will bring $34,000 new jobs and $1 billion dollars in revenue that would have otherwise been spent in other states.

Remember the simple days. About a decade ago, all we cared about is if our computers would run the newest copy of Myst, and how many minutes it would take to log on to the AOL dial-up connection (you know you had it). Now its almost 2010, and it is of course no longer that simple.

Apple is said to be coming out with a new product called the Apple Tablet. This new device is supposed to be a combination of the iPod, iPhone, and MacBook. Now that's a lot of technology in one device with just a 10" screen.
Some of the features of past Apple products may be features of the Apple Tablet, including a touch screen, Wi-Fi access, media playback, and desktop applications.
