The verbal faculty to better communicate emotion does well for exhibiting passions passionately, and that’s important.
From SLO life to leisure life
Whoever said patience is a virtue must have studied abroad. Before leaving for Bilbao, Spain, my home for the next six months, I spoke with various friends who had already experienced life in Spain. I was told that Spaniards work the least amount possible.
How to Survive: Your roommates
Almost every college student has a roommate at some point in their college career. Out of all of those pairings, there are obviously some that will not work, period, some where the problems can be resolved and then there are some that will most likely become your life-long friends.
Mail can be read without warrant
He doesn’t even need a warrant. At least, that’s what the latest news from the Hill implies. The House just passed H.R. 6407 in December, The Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act of 2006. One provision (among others) is that First Class mail cannot be opened without a warrant.
Learning new languages: guy talk, girl speak
I love intellectual sparring with the opposite sex.
I’m not exactly sure what started this (bad habit? guilty pleasure?). My training in the art began sometime in elementary school. The boys didn’t appreciate having to share the playground with my 8-year-old attempts to start mental tennis matches.
Tell us your thoughts – ASI's listening
What ticks you off? What do you wish would change that would make life that much better?
As your ASI president, it is my duty to represent you and the other 18,000 students of Cal Poly to the university administration, the city and beyond. In order to make sure we at ASI are properly representing your ideas, we need to know what’s on your mind.
Soldier drug use increases
By now, everyone knows about the “surge” into Iraq. However, I will spare you from having to read another editorial about this decision. Instead, I want to focus on a growing trend in Iraq, which no one is talking about: the increase in drug use by U.S. soldiers to cope with stress.
Affirmative action harmful
As college students, we have had a long history of filling little boxes in on tests. I remember that every year through grade school, high school, and college, I was most confused about the ethnicity box. See, I’m exactly half Asian-American and half European-American, and unfortunately, no such box exists for this particular mix.
The online cooking revolution
It all started with a little E.V.O.O and before America knew it, Rachael Ray had almost single-handedly revolutionized the way we cook. The spunky and energetic host of “30-Minute Meals” got Americans back into the kitchen with easy, healthy and delicious recipes – but not necessarily because of her TV shows (she has five, by the way) – but because of the Internet.
Upstart airline winning public favor with gimmicks and new policy
Editor’s note: ‘The Bunion’ is fake news. Period. SAN LUIS OBISPO -A recent poll showed that money mogul Jack Vander-Bucks and his upstart airline Fair-Air are rapidly winning public acclaim. Though Fair-Air in service is every way as majorly piss-poor as other airline sector competitors and in some ways much worse, the key difference is in Fair-Air’s ideology and guaranteed “No Bullshit” policy, which abandon the tired facades of punctuality, safety and reliability that pervade the industry.
How to start calling shotgun like a pro
Well, everyone has their way to do it. Some are quicker than others, so in the end really, only one person prevails. Of course, I’m talking about the shotgun. Now, hold on college boy and college girl, because I’m not talking about shotgunning a beer, but rather the ever so important “shotgun” yell to get the rights to the front passenger seat in the car.
