As T.J. Leyden walks on stage he looks seemingly normal - light blue jeans, rectangular-rimmed glasses and two layered shirts - a green, short-sleeved T-shirt over a beige, long-sleeved shirt. Upon first glance, one would never know the long-sleeved shirt - a constant staple of his wardrobe - conceals dozens of tattoos of Nazi symbols, permanent reminders of a past filled with racism and violence.

The white chef's hat rests naturally on his head, no hair to burden its perch. He dons the matching apron to thwart the best efforts of the steaming vegetable lasagna to stain his immaculate outfit. The smell wafts up as he shouts, "Come get it, this will be the best decision you've ever made.

Parents' Weekend is the best time to try new eateries. The combination of family time and food, that's not on your dime, is an unstoppable force. This Parent's Weekend, I tried a new hotspot at the Promenade, Pacifico, and the prominent Apollo Grill. So here we have a battle royale, two fine restaurants battling it out until the bitter end: Pacifico vs.

It was the single most telling moment during Thursday's panel discussion. A student pointed out that GND (Grade Non Disclosure) freed him to engage in valuable extracurricular activities because it relieved him from the pressure of grade competition. As it turns out, this self-directed and self-motivated student has in fact distinguished himself by some very impressive extracurricular service. I suspect he has made excellent choices, and I don't fault him at all for making them. However...

At some point, in between the scheduling madness, pestering parents and the perpetual drunk/hungover haze that occasionally leads to poor judgment, you hang up the phone after ending a frustrating conversation with, "Fine, if it's that important to you that I get married, why don't you find me someone?" Wait, shit, where's the undo button?? Giving Indian parents (who had an arranged marriage themselves) license to "find someone" is like letting loose an elephant in a china cabinet. But by the time you call them back 10 minutes later, the damage is done and they've already compiled a list of eight "eligible bachelors" who you've known since you were five.

Evolution. Mention that word in most public schools around this country and it will be treated with heated arguments from both sides of the issue. Did man evolve from the ape? Were we created in this image that we survive in today? Though that fact is debatable and has been through the court systems 100 times over, the fact that James Bond, Her majesty's number one super secret agent, has gone through intense evolution in his 22-movie span is not debatable.

Every creep worth his salt knows that online networking profiles are great for scoping out hotties. However, many people fail to realize the Internet's role in evaluating potential dolts.

This people-evaluating technique also works in the reverse.
